EXHIBIT A
GOOD FAITH ESTIMATES
The good faith estimates set forth herein are provided with respect to the Bonds in
accordance with California Government Code Section 5852.1. Such good faith estimates have
been provided to the City by Fieldman, Rolapp & Associates, Inc. (the City's "Municipal
Advisor") in consultation with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, the Underwriter of the
Bonds.
Principal Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, based on the City's
financing plan and current market conditions, its good faith estimate of the aggregate principal
amount of the Bonds to be sold is $13,185,000 (the "Estimated Principal Amount"), which
excludes approximately $2,037,246 of net premium estimated to be generated based on current
market conditions, which together total $15,222,246. Net premium is generated when, on a net
aggregate basis for a single issuance of bonds, the price paid for the bonds is higher than the
face value of such bonds.
True Interest Cost of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that,
assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is sold, and based on market
interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the
true interest cost of the Bonds, which means the rate necessary to discount the amounts
payable on the respective principal and interest payment dates to the purchase price received
for the Bonds, is 2.90%.
Finance Charge of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that,
assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is sold, and based on market
interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the
finance charge for the Bonds, which means the sum of all fees and charges paid to third
parties (or costs associated with the Bonds), is $322,246.
Amount of Proceeds to be Received. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that,
assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is sold, and based on market
interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the
amount of proceeds expected to be received by the City for sale of the Bonds, less the finance
charge of the Bonds, as estimated above, and any reserves or capitalized interest paid or
funded with proceeds of the Bonds, is $14,900,000.
Total Payment Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that
the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates
prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the total
payment amount, which means the sum total of all payments the City will make to pay debt
service on the Bonds, plus the finance charge for the Bonds, as described above, not paid with
the proceeds of the Bonds, calculated to the final maturity of the Bonds, is $22,704,745.
The foregoing estimates constitute good faith estimates only. The actual principal
amount of the Bonds issued and sold, the true interest cost thereof, the finance charges thereof,
the amount of proceeds received therefrom and total payment amount with respect thereto may
differ from such good faith estimates due to: (a) the actual date of the sale of the Bonds being
different than the date assumed for purposes of such estimates; (b) the actual principal amount
of Bonds sold being different from the Estimated Principal Amount; (c) the actual amortization of
A-1
the Bonds being different than the amortization assumed for purposes of such estimates; (d) the
actual market interest rates at the time of sale of the Bonds being different than those estimated
for purposes of such estimates; (e) other market conditions; or (f) alterations in the City's
financing plan, delays in the financing, additional legal work or a combination of such factors
and additional finance charges, if any, attributable thereto. The actual date of sale of the Bonds
and the actual principal amount of Bonds sold will be determined by the City based on the
timing of the need for proceeds of the Bonds and other factors. The actual interest rates borne
by the Bonds will depend on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. The actual
amortization of the Bonds will also depend, in part, on market interest rates at the time of sale
thereof. Market interest rates are affected by economic and other factors beyond the control of
the City.
