to the City Council.

party to the Mortgage.

"Subordination Agreement") to be executed by the trustee for the Subordinate
Bonds and the Lender, as purchaser of the Senior Notes, the liens held by the
Lender as security for each of the Senior Notes are considered to be in parity with
each other and the trustee for the Subordinate Bonds has agreed to subordinate all

(i) A copy of the proposed form of Joint Powers Agreement has been
presented to the City Council in connection with its consideration of this
Resolution, and has been submitted to the City Council.
0) The Falcon Heights Note will be a special, limited obligation of the
City. The Falcon Heights Note shall not be payable from or charged upon any
funds other than the revenues pledged to the payment thereof, nor shall the City
be subject to any liability thereon. No holder of the Falcon Heights Note shall ever
have the right to compel any exercise of the taxing power of the City to pay the
Falcon Heights Note or the interest thereon, nor to enforce payment thereof
against any property of the City. The Falcon Heights Note shall not constitute a
debt of the City within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation.
(k) Nothing in this resolution or the documents prepared pursuant
hereto shall authorize the expenditure of any municipal funds on the Project other
than the revenues derived from the Project or otherwise granted to the City for
this purpose. The Falcon Heights Note shall not constitute a charge, lien or
encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property or funds of the City except
the revenue and proceeds pledged to the payment thereof, nor shall the City be
subject to any liability thereon. The holder of the Falcon Heights Note shall never
have the right to compel any exercise of the taxing power of the City to pay the
outstanding principal on the Falcon Heights Note or the interest thereon, or to
enforce payment thereon against any property of the City, except such property as
may be expressly pledged for the security of the Falcon Heights Note. The Falcon
Heights Note shall recite in substance that the Falcon Heights Note, including the
interest thereon, is payable solely from the revenue derived from the Project and
pledged to the payment thereof.
(1) On the basis of information available to the City it appears, and the
City hereby finds, that the Project constitutes properties, real and personal, used
or useful in connection with a multifamily housing and healthcare facility for the
elderly within the meaning of the Act; that the Project furthers the purposes stated
in the Act; that the availability of the financing under the Act and the willingness
of the City to furnish such financing will be a substantial inducement to the
Borrower to undertake the Project, and that the effect of the Project, if undertaken,
will be to assist in the prevention of the emergence of blighted and marginal land,
to help prevent chronic unemployment, to help the surrounding area retain and
eventually improve the tax base, to provide the range of service and employment
opportunities required by the population, to help prevent the movement of
talented and educated persons out of the state and to areas within the State where
their services may not be as effectively used, and to promote more intensive
development and use of land within the City and surrounding communities, and
to provide available adequate senior housing and healthcare facilities to residents
of the State at a reasonable cost.
E
13166826v2
(m) It is desirable, feasible, and consistent with the objects and purposes
of the Act to issue the Falcon Heights Note for the purpose of financing the costs
of the Project.

The Cities will issue the Obligations in one or more series of tax-exempt and/or
taxable obligations to finance the Project in an aggregate principal amount of Obligations
not to exceed $36,000,000, with the principal amounts of Notes to be issued by the City of
Hampton, Minnesota and the City of Landfall Village, Minnesota each expected not to
exceed $10,000,000, the principal amount of Notes to be issued by the City of Falcon
Heights, Minnesota expected not to exceed $8,000,000, and the aggregate principal
amount of Bonds to be issued by the City of Little Canada, Minnesota expected not to
exceed $8,000,000. The Borrower will be required, pursuant to the Loan Agreements, to
make payments sufficient to pay when due the principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on the Obligations. The Obligations may be structured so as to take advantage of
whatever means are available or necessary and are permitted by law to enhance the
security for and marketability of the Obligations. Substantially all of the net proceeds of
the Obligations (the initial principal amount thereof, less amounts deposited in
reasonably required reserves or paid out as costs of issuance of the Obligations) will be
used to pay the costs of the Project, including any functionally related and subordinate
facilities.
Because the Borrower is an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code,
no allocation of authority to issue tax-exempt bonds is required pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Chapter 474A. The Obligations will be issued pursuant to Section 462C.05,
subdivision 7 of the Act because the New Harmony Facilities will consist of a combined
multifamily housing development and health care facility as defined in
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.153, and will be payable primarily from revenues of the
New Harmony Facilities. The multifamily housing development is designed and used
for rental occupancy primarily by the elderly.
Issuance of the Obligations is anticipated to occur in the spring of 2021.
The Project will be carried out in accordance with applicable land use and
development restrictions, and any new construction is subject to applicable state and
local building codes. The Project is not inconsistent with any Housing Plan adopted by
the Cities under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C. The Borrower will be required to
operate the New Harmony Facilities in accordance with state and local anti-
discrimination laws and ordinances.
The Cities have adequate existing capacity to administer, monitor, and supervise
the Project, although the Cities have reserved the right to contract with other public
agencies or private parties for these purposes.
The costs of the Project and the program of financing the Project, including
specifically the costs of the Cities, generally will be paid or reimbursed by the Borrower.
