                       iv.  Whether the contract or obligation contains acceleration provisions or restrictive debt service covenants that could
                            affect the rights of existing security holders;



                       v.   Whether the contract or obligation is a short or long-term Debt Obligation of the Issuer under the terms of an
                            indenture, loan agreement, capital lease, or other similar contract such as a line of credit;



                       vi.  Whether the contract or obligation is an operating lease, or a capital lease which operates as a vehicle for
                            borrowing money (e.g. a lease-purchase agreement). For purposes of this Disclosure Policy, factors relevant to
                            determining whether a lease is a vehicle for borrowing money (i.e., a Financial Obligation) are included in Exhibit
                            A attached hereto;


                      vii.  Whether the contract or obligation represents competing debt with the Issuer's prior Debt Obligations that may
                            affect the rights of the existing security holders;


                      viii.  Whether the contract or obligation is a derivative instrument entered into in connection with a pledge as security
                            or source of payment for an existing or planned Debt Obligation, which may include any swap, security-based
                            swap, futures contract, forward contract, option, a combination of the foregoing or any similar instrument;


                       ix.  Whether the contract or obligation is a derivative instrument designed to mitigate investment risk; or



                       x.   Whether the contract or obligation is a guarantee provided by the Issuer as a guarantor for the benefit of a third
                            party.
               The Disclosure Officer will consult with bond counsel, legal counsel to the Issuer (including designated disclosure counsel, if any),
               accountants, municipal advisors, financial advisors and other outside consultants to the extent necessary in making a determination
               as to whether a contract or obligation incurred by the Issuer is a Financial Obligation or Terms Affecting Security Holders subject
               to the disclosure requirements of Event 15.
                   (c) Determination  of  Material  Event  15.  If  the  Disclosure  Officer  determines  that  the  Issuer  has  incurred  a  Financial
                       Obligation or Terms Affecting Security Holders subject to Event 15, the Disclosure Officer shall proceed to determine
                       whether such Financial Obligation or Terms Affecting Security Holders are Material. The same practice used by the
                       Issuer for determining whether a particular piece of information is Material in connection with preparing a disclosure
                       document for an Offering set forth in Section 3.02(f) should be used for purposes of Event 15.



               The Disclosure Officer shall determine whether a Financial Obligation or Terms Affecting Security Holders are Material upon the
               incurrence  of  the  Financial  Obligation  or  the  Terms  Affecting  Security  Holders,  taking  into  account  all  relevant  facts  and
               circumstances. Relevant facts and circumstances may include, but are not limited to:


                                     i.   The principal amount of the Financial Obligation, including the aggregate par amount of a
                                          series of related Financial Obligations, and the method of setting or adjusting the interest rate
                                          thereof;


                                     ii.  The Issuer's overall balance sheet and the size of its existing Debt Obligations;



                                     iii.  The  source  of  security  pledged  for  repayment  of  the  Financial  Obligation  and  the  rights
                                          associated with such pledge;
