MATURITY SCHEDULE The Series 2013A Bonds will mature on February 1 in the years specified in this Notice of Bond Sale. TERM BONDS OPTION The successful bidder on the Series 2013A Bonds has the option of specifying that all of the principal amount of Series 2013A Bonds scheduled to mature in any two or more consecutive years beginning on or after February 1, 2023 will, in lieu of maturing in each of such years, be considered to comprise a single maturity (a "Term Bond") scheduled to mature in the latest of such years and be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption in the manner described below in each of the years and in the principal amounts as given in the maturity schedule. The successful bidder may exercise the above option one or more times. The successful bidder must provide the Financial Advisor with the details of its intentions regarding the designation of Term Bonds immediately after any award of the Series 2013A Bonds. REDEMPTION PROVISIONS The Series 2013A Bonds, or portions thereof, maturing on or prior to February 1, 2023 are not subject to optional redemption prior to their respective stated dates of maturity. The Series 2013A Bonds, or portions thereof, maturing on February 1, 2024 and thereafter shall be subject to redemption prior to their stated dates of maturity, at the option and direction of the Financing Corporation, in whole or in part, in such maturities as the Financing Corporation, in its discretion, shall select (or if the Financing Corporation fails to designate such maturities, in inverse order of maturity) and by lot within a maturity if less than a full maturity, on any date on or after February 1, 2023, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the date set for redemption. Any Term Bonds specified pursuant to the Term Bonds option also will be redeemable from funds on deposit in the sinking fund for mandatory redemption of Term Bonds, by lot at par, plus accrued interest, without premium, in the amounts and in the years specified in the maturity schedule and pursuant to the Term Bonds option set forth above. BASIS OF AWARD The Series 2013A Bonds will be issued as tax-exempt bonds. Bids must be only for all of the Series 2013A Bonds and must be unconditional. The purchase price bid for the Series 2013A Bonds may include a discount not to exceed 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the Series 2013A Bonds, excluding any original issue discount or original issue premium. No more than one Bid for the Series 2013A Bonds from any bidder will be considered. The Series 2013A Bonds will be awarded to the bidder offering to purchase the Series 2013A Bonds at the lowest annual interest cost rate computed on the true interest cost basis. The annual true interest cost rate will be determined by doubling the semiannual interest rate (compounded semiannually on a 30 day month and a 360 day year basis) necessary to discount the semiannual debt service payments on the Series 2013A Bonds to the price bid. Bidders will be notified by TM3 of the proposed delivery date; such date will be the date from which the annual true interest cost rate will be calculated. If two or more Bids

provide the lowest annual true interest cost rate, the Financing Corporation and the Financial Advisor will determine by lot which Bid will be accepted, and such determination will be final. The Financing Corporation reserves the right to waive any informality or irregularity in any Bid and to reject any and all Bids. The Financing Corporation s judgment shall be final and binding upon all bidders with respect to the form and adequacy of any Bid received and as to its conformity to the terms of this Notice of Sale. All Bids remain firm until the final award is made. INTEREST RATES PERMITTED The Series 2013A Bonds will bear interest expressed in multiples of 1/8 or 1/20 of 1%. No difference greater than 4% will be permitted between the highest and lowest coupon rates of interest specified for the Series 2013A Bonds. It will not be necessary that all Series 2013A Bonds bear the same rate of interest, provided that all Series 2013A Bonds maturing on the same date must bear the same rate of interest. Maturities designated as Term Bonds must bear one rate of interest; however, if more than one Term Bond is designated, each Term Bond need not bear the same rate of interest, as long as the restrictions above are complied with. A Bid including any rate of interest based upon the use of split or supplemental interest payments or a zero rate of interest will not be considered.
