Enclosed are documents related to the pending public offering of trust certificates
guaranteed under Section 108 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as
amended. The public offering date is firm for July 21, 2010, except for adverse market
conditions. The offering will be underwritten by: (i) UBS Investment Bank, (ii) Bank of America
Merrill Lynch, and (iii) Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC. Capitalized terms used in this letter
are more hilly defined in the enclosed documents.
Even though the public offering will not be held until July 21, 2010, it is necessary that
HUD receive the properly executed documents from you by close of business on July 2, 2010..
We must verify that we have all documents from all Borrowers, and that they are satisfactory,
before pricing and before we can sign the Underwriting Agreement. [f we do not receive the
documents from you by July 2, your note will not be included in the public offering on July 21.
This underwritten public offering will be conducted pursuant to legislation which permits
the Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") to guarantee trust certificates that
are backed by a trust composed of notes or other obligations guaranteed under Section 108. Your
note will be included in such a trust, together with the notes of other participating Borrowers.
The enclosed public offering documents, which must be executed by the authorized
representative of the Borrower identified iti its counsel's legal opinion, are the Promissory Note
("Note") and the Contract for Loan Guarantee.Assistance ("Contract"). The opinion of counsel .to
the Borrower is required pursuant to paragraph 4(b) of the Contract; a model opinion with
attached instructions is also enclosed for the guidance of counsel. If the Borrower previously
executed .interim financing documents and is not receiving funds for new activities (i.e., activities
not covered by the existing Contract) at this offering, no new additional security Contract
provisions are required for this offering; the Contract incorporates the previous additional
security provisions.
As noted in paragraph 15 of the enclosed Contract, the proceeds from the Note will be
deposited into a defeasance account and will be used solely to prepay an outstanding promissory
note that was included in a previous public offering. You will be required to remit, in accordance
with the instructions referenced below, the scheduled principal and interest payment next due
under the previously issued note. This amount will also be deposited into the defeasance
account.
After it is executed by the Borrower and returned to HUD, the Note (which is not
effective until guaranteed by HUD at the closing of the public offering) will be delivered by
1-IUD to The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee, two days before the public offering date and
will be held in trust. At closing, the Trustee will issue a single, separate certificate for each
Principal Due Date specified in the Note. Each such certificate shall specify the applicable pass -
through interest rate, which rate(s) will also be entered in Schedule P&I attached to the Note for
the applicable Principal Due Dates. The interest rate will be established for each trust certificate
at pricing by the underwriters one week before the public offering date.
The Aggregate Principal Amount of the Note shall be repaid in accordance with the
Schedule P&I attached thereto. Interest will accrue on each Principal Amount at the pass -
through interest rate on the related trust certificate, payable on the applicable Interest Due Date
(each February 1 or August 1, beginning February 1, 201 1), through the Principal Due Date on
the schedule attached to the Note (which dates correspond to the related distribution dates of
payments to investors on the trust certificates). Each interest payment will consist of the
aggregate of the interest amounts accrued to the applicable date on the entire principal balance of
the Note. However, all payments on the Note are actually due to the Trustee on the Note
Payment Date seven Business Days before the applicable Interest Due Date or Principal Due
Date. This is necessary to enable the Trustee to aggregate the payments and direct them to the
proper investors, and also to enable HUD to honor its Guarantee by making payment on behalf of
the Borrower from pledged grant funds if necessary. You will be notified by the Trustee of the
amount of the required payment one month before each Note Payment Date.
The Note and Contract reference the Trust Agreement and the Amended and Restated
Master Fiscal Agency Agreement, both of which are enclosed. Pursuant to the Contract, the
Borrower consents to the selection of The Bank of New York Mellon as Trustee and agrees to the
terms of the public offering, including the Trust Agreement. The Trust Agreement principally
sets forth duties and responsibilities of the Trustee, but certain provisions of interest to borrowers
are included, including compensation and indemnification of the Trustee, which is secured only
by the security specified in paragraph 5 of the Contract. The Fiscal Agency Agreement and Trust
documents are enclosed for your reference; please do not return them to HUD.
The Contract provides when and how payment of the costs (fees) of the public offering is
to be made. The final amount of the costs will not be known until the week before the public
offering date. We will notify you of the amount at that time.
The enclosed form for wire transfer of funds provides the information that you will need
to remit the costs of the public offering as well as the scheduled P&I payment on the previously
issued note. These funds must be remitted no later than July 20, 2010.

proposed to be defeased, including any Optional Redemptions

All temporary investments, whether or not required as above,
shall be limited to Government Obligations having maturities

year. All such investments shall be held in trust for the
benefit of the Secretary by the above financial institution

debt service reserve under an EDI Grant Agreement pursuant to
Section 108(q) of the Act which supports the eligible project(s)
and activities financed by the Note may also be used therefor;
any other use of Section 10:8.(q) funds for such purposes shall
require the prior written approval of the Secretary. Unless

expressly authorized by the Secretary in writing, the Borrower
shall substantially disburse funds available in the Loan
Repayment or the Loan Repayment Investment Accounts before funds

8. Secretary's Right to Restrict Use of CDBG Funds to Repayment.
Upon a determination by the Secretary that payments required by
paragraph 2 and/or paragraph 4 of this Contract are unlikely to
be made as specified, the Secretary may give the Borrower notice
that the availability to the Borrower of funds pledged under
paragraph 5(a) of. this Contract for purposes other than
satisfaction of the pledge is being restricted. This restriction
shall be in an amount estimated by the Secretary to be
sufficient to ensure that the payments referred to in paragraph
2 and/or paragraph 4 hereof are made when due. This restriction
may be given effect by conditioning the restricted.amounts to
prohibit disbursement for purposes other than satisfaction of
the pledge at the time such restricted funds are approved as
grants, by limiting the Borrower's ability to draw down or
expend the restricted funds for other purposes, and by
disapproving payment requests submitted with respect to such
grants for purposes other than satisfaction of the pledge.
9. Secretary's Right to Use Pledged Funds for Repayment. The
Secretary may use funds pledged under paragraph 5(a) of this
Contract or funds restricted under grants pursuant to paragraph
8 of this Contract to make any payment required of the Borrower
under paragraph 2 and/or paragraph 4, if such payment has not
been timely made by the Borrower.

10. Defeasance. For purposes of this Contract, the Note shall be
deemed to have been paid (defeased) if there shall have been
deposited with the Trustee either moneys or Government
Obligations (defined below), which in the sole determination of
the Secretary, mature and bear interest at times and in amounts
sufficient, together with any other moneys on deposit with the
Trustee for such purpose, to pay when due the principal and
interest to become due on the Note. The Aggregate Principal
Amount of the Note or any unpaid Principal Amount may be so
defeased, in whole or in part, as of any Interest Due Date, or
any other Business Day acceptable to both HUD and the Borrower.
In accordance with the Note and the Trust Agreement, the
Borrower shall give timely notice and written instructions to
the Secretary and the Trustee concerning any principal amounts
proposed to be defeased, including any Optional Redemptions
proposed, which instructions shall be approved by the Secretary.
If the unpaid Aggregate Principal Amount of the Note guaranteed
pursuant to this Contract shall be defeased and deemed to have
been paid in full, then the Borrower shall be released from all
agreements, covenants, and further obligations under the Note.
"Government Obligation" means a direct obligation of, or any
obligation for which the full and timely payment of principal
and interest is guaranteed by, the United States of America,
including but not limited to, United States Treasury
Certificates of Indebtedness, Notes and Bonds - State and Local
Government Series or certificates of ownership of the principal
of or interest on. direct obligations of, or obligations
unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States of America,

makes a final decision in accordance with the provisions of
section 111 of the Act and 24 CFR 570.913 (or any successor
provisions), including requirements for reasonable notice and
opportunity for hearing, that the Borrower has failed to
comply substantially with title I of the Act. Notwithstanding
any other provision, following the giving of such reasonable
notice, the Secretary may, in the Secretary's sole discretion
pending the Secretary's final decision, withhold the
guarantee of any or all obligations not yet guaranteed on
behalf of the Borrower under outstanding commitments, and/or
direct the Borrower's financial institution to: refuse to
honor any instruments drawn upon, or withdrawals from, the

financial institution to transfer remaining balances from the
Guaranteed Loan Funds Account to the Loan Repayment Account.

[This model for use only by counsel to CDBG entitlement grantees
NOT using a designated public agency to issue the guaranteed
Note, and which are not participating in a CDBG States' Program
for nonentitlement areas]
[Please review instructions following opinion
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development
451 7th Street, SW
Washington, DC 20410
Dear Sir or Madam:
The undersigned, being duly licensed and in good standing to'
practice law in the State [Commonwealth] of
is legal counsel to the [City, County, etc.] of
("Borrower"). As such, I [we] have represented
the Borrower regarding that certain promissory note, referred to
as Note No. [See , in the Aggregate Principal
Amount of $ instruction 5 below] ("Note"), to
be executed by the Borrower payable to the order of the
Registered Holder thereof, and to be guaranteed by the Secretary
of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") under section 108 of the
Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, 42
U.S.C. 5308 ("Section 108"). The Note will be included in a
trust created by HUD (together with other Section 108 Notes
issued by other borrowers), and trust certificates based on the
trust will be sold in the Series 2010-A public offering by
underwriters selected by HUD. HUD's guarantee of the Note will
be governed by the Contract for Loan Guarantee Assistance under
Section 108 between the Borrower and HUD (the "Contract"), in
which the Borrower pledges Community Development Block Grants
pursuant to 24 CFR 570.705(b)(2), as well as any other security
specified in the Contract, as security for HUD's guarantee.
In my [our] capacity as legal counsel, I [we] have made an
examination and investigation of all such matters of .fact and
questions of law as I [we] consider necessary or advisable to
enable me [us] to render the opinion hereafter set forth.
Specifically, and without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, I [we] have. examined:
1. [Cite applicable provisions of the Constitution and/or
Statutes of the State [Commonwealth]] [optional]
2. [Cite applicable provisions of Charter and Ordinances
of the Borrower] [optional]
3. A Resorution of the governing body of Borrower dated
authorizing Borrower to enter into
this transaction, and authorizing [Insert naive or title
of official authorized to execute Note and Contract],
to execute on behalf of Borrower all documents
necessary or desirable to accomplish the transaction.
4. The Contract
5. The Note
6. The Amended and Restated Master Fiscal Agency Agreement
dated as of May 17, 2000, the Trust Agreement dated as
of January 1, 1995, and the form of Supplement to the
Trust Agreement to be executed by the Secretary of HUD
for the closing of the public offering.
Based on the foregoing investigation and authorities, I am
[we are] of the opinion that:
1. Borrower has authorized in accordance with [the cited]
[applicable] State and local law, the transaction, including
issuance of the Note, the pledge of grant funds, and the
execution of all documents necessary or desirable to accomplish
the transaction.
2. Borrower has authorized (Insert name of authorized
official(s) who executed Note and Contract] , in [his, her]
capacity(ies) as [Insert title of authorized official(s)]
to execute the Contract, the Note and all other documents
necessary or desirable to accomplish the transaction.
3. The Note and the Contract have been duly executed by the
aforementioned authorized representative[s] of the Borrower, and
upon delivery thereof,due execution of the Contract and
Guarantee on behalf of HUD, and receipt of the loan proceeds on
behalf of the Borrower, the Note and Contract shall be valid,
binding and enforceable obligations of the Borrower.
4. The pledge of present and future Community Development
Block Grants by the Borrower pursuant to 24 CFR 570.705(b)(2) and
the Contract is valid.
5. There is no outstanding, or to my (our) knowledge
threatened, action, suit, proceeding, investigation or litigation
by or against the Borrower that will affect the validity of the
Note or the security therefor.

po opinion ent 6-4-10
INSTRUCTIONS
[The model opinion and instructions are available electronically
from HUD. Contact your HUD program office representative in the
Financial Management Division or one of the attorneys listed at
the end of the instructions.]
1. Opinions must be signed by an attorney licensed to practice
and in good standing in the applicable. State or Commonwealth:
The attorney shall issue the opinion on behalf of a private firm
or local government legal officer or office that represented the
CDBG grantee/section 108 Borrower in the transaction, and it must
be on the firm or office's letterhead. If issued by a firm, the
opinion must be signed on behalf of the firm by a partner or with
the firm name as authorized by the firm. If issued by a
government legal officer or office, the opinion must be signed by
the officer, the head of the legal office, or by a senior lawyer
with authority to bind the office. The appropriate plural
[bracketed] pronouns in the attached model should be used for
opinions signed on behalf of multi -lawyer firms or offices.
2. The language marked "optional" in paragraphs 1 and 2 at the
bottom of page one of the attached model, including citations, is
recommended to evidence thoroughness and to enhance the
credibility of the opinion, but it can be omitted in the judgment
of the attorney rendering the opinion. However, citing the
applicable authorizing resolution of the local governing body is
required. Of course, should facts or legal authorities come to
HUDD's attention that call an opinion into question, HUD reserves
the right to reject, or require such revision to, any opinion, as
HUD in its sole discretion may determine.
3. The local counsel's opinions are based upon the requirements
of paragraph 4(b) of the Contract and are in support of a HUD
opinion given at closing for the public offering, as required by
the Underwriting Agreement between HUD and the underwriters. The
use of the model opinion without substantial change is strongly
encouraged to permit HUD staff to accept and rely on the opinion
on its face, without time-consuming call-backs, investigation,
and revision. Conditions and qualifying language in legal
opinions require specific review by HUD legal staff, may tend to
slow processing of the loan guarantee documentation, and are
generally discouraged, unless they are essential in a particular
case.
However, qualifications which exclude the validity of, or
the authority for, execution of the documents on behalf of the
Borrower from the coverage of the opinion, assume the.validity of
such execution, or exempt the signatory attorney from knowledge
of the validity of the execution, are not acceptable. HUD deals
nationally with many cities, counties, and other public bodies,
and cannot independently verify the authority of officials of
those entities: Borrowers counsels' opinions covering proper
execution serve as an important check on such validity.
While not a cause for rejection of an opinion per se, it is
not necessary to qualify an opinion by stating that
enforceability of the documents may be .limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, or similar
general.laws or equity principles relating to or affecting
creditors' rights or providing remedies for the relief of
debtors, or that the availability of specific performance or
injunctive relief in aid of enforcement of the documents may be
limited by equitable rights and defenses. HUD is aware that
there may be exceptions to the enforceability of its rights as a
creditor based on generally applicable laws and equitable
principles; that is why HUD regards the pledge of present and
future CDBG grants, which are controlled by HUD, as the principal
security for repayment of the notes. The purpose of the legal
opinions is not -to get an attorney to act as insurer of the
absolute enforceability of the documents but rather to require
that there has been legal review adequate to assure proper
authorization and execution of the Note and related documents by
the proper parties under State and local law.
4. Separate models are available from HUD for transactions in
which a CDBG grantee is using a designated public agency to issue
the Note and receive the proceeds thereof on its behalf.
Similarly, separate models are available for nonentitlement
grantees and their States, where a State —administered CDBG
nonentitlement -recipient is issuing the section 108-guaranteed
Note. If.you are involved in one of the foregoing transactions,
please obtain the appropriate model from the program office (see
paragraph 7 below).
The Borrower is not required to execute the Trust Agreement
or the Amended and Restated Master Fiscal Agency Agreement; those
documents are incorporated by reference in the Contract and the
Note, and the Borrower agrees to the terms of those documents by
executing the Contract and the Note.. Copies of the Amended and
Restated Master Fiscal Agency Agreement, Trust Agreement, and the
form of Supplement to the Trust Agreement to be executed on
behalf of the Secretary at closing on the Public Offering Date
should have been included in the package of documents transmitted
to the Borrower by HUD. If they were not, and if you have not
previously reviewed them, please contact the CPD Financial
Management Division phone number at the end of these instructions
for copies, if necessary. The Trust.Agreement and the Amended
and Restated Master Fiscal Agency Agreement have not changed
since the last public offering, and no significant change is
anticipated in the Supplement to the Trust Agreement except for
dates and the schedules of the obligations covered by the
Supplement.
5. The attorney should assure that the legal name of the
Borrower in the Note and the Contract is correct and should
2
notify HUD if it is not. The note number to be inserted in the
opinion in the first paragraph appears in the heading of the
Note. The Aggregate Principal Amount to be inserted also appears
in the heading of the Note and at the end of the Schedule P&I
attached to the Note (these should agree).
[Background - Unlike Section 108 interim (variable -rate)
financing, the entire Aggregate Principal Amount of the Note will
be disbursed at closing on the. Public Offering Date, as
applicable: (i) to pay off interim financing (or a public
offering note being refinanced, if applicable), (ii) for deposit
in the Borrower's Guaranteed Loan Funds Account under paragraph 1
of the Contract, or (iii)(by deduction,) to pay the fees referred
to in paragraph 4 of the Contract if so requested by the
Borrower. Also unlike interim financing, Principal Amounts due
on particular Principal Due Dates on Schedule P&I cannot be
amended (even with HUD approval) after closing of the public
offering. Borrower's counsel should assure that the Borrower's
financial officials are satisfied that Schedule P&I accurately
states the repayment schedule agreed to by the Borrower and HUD.]
"Other Security" Opinions
6. If so provided in the Contract, an additional opinion or
opinions may be requested of Borrower's counsel or other counsel
with regard to "other security" as negotiated between HUD and the
Borrower for a particular transaction. If such opinions have
previously been furnished in connection with interim financing,
the same opinions do not have to be submitted again. Generally,
any additional opinions related to other security will be
described in paragraph 15 of the Contract. The Contract may
require such other security opinions to be delivered to HUD with
the executed Note and Contract or at a later time, and the
Contract may provide that they be delivered to .a local custodian,
rather than HUD. If so, it is recommended that such opinions be
separate from the attached model opinion required with respect to
execution and validity of the Note and Contract. However, if the
Contract requires the "other security" opinion(s) to be submitted
to HUD at the same time as the model opinion, they may be
combined with the model opinion. Due to the variety of "other
security" provisions, model language for the ".other security"
opinions cannot be furnished routinely.
7. If there are any questions, including specific questions
about "other security" opinions, the local CDBG grantee program
office may contact its representative in HUD's Office of
Community Development, Financial Management Division, at 202-708-
1871. Local counsel may also directly call Evelyn Wrin or Carey
Whitehead in HUD's Office of General Counsel at 202.402.5220 or
202.402.3106, respectively, or send an email to
evelyn.m.w.rin@hud.gov or carey.c.whitehead@hud.gov, with
questions about the opinion.

guarantees.

ment Block Grant Program and pursuant to Section 108 of the
HCD Act_ See "Description of the Section 108 Loan Guarantee
Program."
Amount of Offering $366,912,000
Closing Date On or about July 21, 2010.

amounts due on the related Notes on the related principal due date,

10:47:56 a.m. 12-14-2010 5/21
Any principal amount due on a Note on or after August 1, 2021 may
be prepaid by the related borrower, in -whole or in part, as of any
interest due date on or after August 1, 2020, and will be distributed to
the certificateholders entitled thereto on the corresponding distribution
date. Payments made in respect of such optional redemptions will be
applied to outstanding principal amounts of the related Note in
accordance with instructions of the related borrower as approved by
HUD. See "Description of Notes — Optional Redemption and
Acceleration."
An acceleration event with respect to any Note may occur on any
note payment date on or after August 1, 2020. If the Secretary of
HUD elects an acceleration, he will make an acceleration payment
of 100% of the related aggregate principal amount of such Note,
together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the interest
due date next following such acceleration event. Such amount will
be paid to the trustee and be distributed to the certificateholders
entitled thereto on the distribution date corresponding to such
interest due date.
As a result of payments in respect of optional redemptions and
acceleration payments, the final distributions of principal in respect
of certificates that have maturity dates on or after August 1, 2021
may occur as early as August t, 2020.
See "Description of Notes — Optional Redemption and
Acceleration."
The anticipated frequency and amount of payments of principal
in respect of optional redemptions and acceleration payments
cannot be predicted and will be influenced by a variety of factors.
In the event of any such payments of principal in respect of
optional redemptions or acceleration payments on the Notes, there
can be no assurance that the certificateholders of the related
certificates will be able to reinvest the distributions of principal in
respect thereof in comparably yielding securities. See "Description
of Notes— Optional Redemption and Acceleration."
Trustee The Bank of New York Mellon will act as trustee under a trust
agreement, dated as of January i, 1995, as amended, and a
supplement to the trust agreement, dated as of July 21, 2010.
Denominations Each certificate will be registered in the book -entry system of The
Depository Trust Company, and beneficial interests therein will be
held by investors in minimum denominations of $10,000 and
integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (except for no more
than one beneficial interest in each certificate representing the
remainder of such certificate).
Tax Status For federal income tax purposes, each certificateholder will be
treated as the owner of an undivided pro rata interest in particular
payments on particular Notes. Ownership of the certificates will be
treated as ownership of "government securities" and `obligations of
the United States" for purposes of certain provisions of the federal
income tax laws. See "Tax Status."

RISK FACTORS
The following information, which you should carefully consider, identifies certain significant
sources of risk associated with a purchase of Certificates. Capitalized terms used in this section have the
meanings ascribed to them elsewhere in this Offering Circular.
Certificates have limited liquidity and market disruption may adversely affect the value of the
Certificates
As described in this Offering Circular, guaranteed trust certificates under the Section 108 Loan
Guarantee program have been offered annually or biennially since 1995, and have historically had a limited
secondary market. There is currently a limited secondary market for the Certificates. If a secondary market
does develop for the Certificates, market prices may be below or substantially below the principal amounts of
such Certificates. In addition, if a secondary market does develop, it might not continue or it might not be
sufficiently liquid to allow Certificateholders to resell Certificates at any time. Consequently, Certificateholders
may not be able to sell Certificates readily or at prices that will enable Certificateholders to realize a desired
yield. In addition, the lack of a defined secondary market may make it difficult to determine the fair value of
Certificates even if a Certificateholder does not intend to selL The market values of the Certificates are likely
to fluctuate. Any of these fluctuations may be significant and could result in losses to Certificateholders
desiring to sell in the secondary market.
Illiquidity can have an adverse effect on the prices of securities, including the Certificates, that are
especially sensitive to prepayment or interest rate risk.
The rate of prepayment on the Notes is uncertain and may adversely affect the average life of and yield
on the Certificates
The anticipated frequency and amount of principal prepayments on the Notes cannot be predicted and
may be influenced by a variety of factors. Any prepayment can impact the yield on the Certificates.
As described in this Offering Circular, the Notes are subject to prepayment in respect of Optional
Redemptions or Acceleration Payments.
• Each Note is subject to Optional Redemption, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium, at
the option of a Borrower as of any Interest Due Date on or after August 1, 2020, at a prepayment
price of 100% of the principal amount due on the Note. See "Description of Notes —Optional
Redemption and Acceleration?'
• Upon a Borrower default, pursuant to the Note Guarantee, the Secretary will make timely
payments of principal and interest on the Notes. On or after August 1, 2020, an Acceleration
Payment with respect to a Note may, but is not required to, be made by the Secretary if the
related Borrower is in default under the related Note and Contract for Loan Guarantee Assistance.
If the Secretary elects to make an Acceleration Payment, such payment will equal the entire
unpaid principal amount of a Note, together with interest accrued and unpaid to the related
Interest Due Date. See "Description of Notes —Optional Redemption and Acceleration."
Economic, financial and regulatory conditions are unpredictable and influence the timing and number
of accelerations and prepayments. Therefore, the anticipated rate and amount of prepayments of principal, if
any, to the Certificateholders in respect of Optional Redemption or Acceleration Payments cannot be
determined. The amount of Optional Redemptions may be influenced by a variety of economic factors,
including a decrease in interest rates, which may make the prepayment of a Note attractive to a Borrower.
Acceleration Payments may result upon the occurrence of a Borrower being in default of its payment
obligations, or for a reason specified in the related Note and Contract for Loan Guarantee Assistance. The rate
at which Borrower defaults are experienced may be influenced by a variety of factors, including but not
limited to the weakening of local economic conditions, increased project development costs and various other
issues related to public entities and state -assisted public entities.

Certificates are being issued pursuant to Public Law 103-233, enacted on April 11, 1994, which amends
Section 108 to allow the Secretary to guarantee the timely payment of the principal and interest on trust
certificates backed by a trust composed of notes guaranteed or eligible for guarantee by the Secretary.
HUD currently anticipates the offering, on an annual or more frequent basis, of additional guaranteed
certificates backed by notes or other obligations issued by units of general local government or public agencies
designated by such units of general local government. However, HUD's plans with respect to future offerings
under the Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program (as defined below) are subject to change due to such factors
as the level of demand for funds by local governments, statutory amendments, market conditions, and changes
in HUD policy.
The statements herein with respect to the Certificates and related documents are subject to the
detailed provisions of such Certificates and related documents, and the statements made herein are qualified in
their entirety by reference thereto. Copies of these documents are available at the Trustee's Corporate Trust
Office (as defined below).
DESCRIPTION OF CERTIFICATES
Each Certificate offered hereby represents a fractional undivided interest in a portion of a trust (the
"Trust") sponsored by the Secretary and administered by the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement and
related Supplement (each, as defined below). The assets of the Trust will consist of Notes issued by the
Borrowers and a guarantee issued by the Secretary pursuant to which the Secretary will guarantee the timely
payment of principal and interest due on the Notes (the "Note Guarantee," together with the Certificate
Guarantee, the "Guarantee").
The aggregate principal amount of Notes for each Principal Due Date (as defined below) will be
represented by a single Certificate with a corresponding Maturity Date (as defined below) and will be
registered in the name of the nominee of The Depository Trust Company (the "DTC"), and beneficial
6
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro 10:49:04 a.m. 12-14-2010 9 /21
ownership interests therein will be held by investors through the book -entry facilities of DTC in minimum
denominations of $10,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (except for no more than one
beneficial interest in each Certificate representing the remainder of such Certificate).
Each Certificate will have a maturity date (each, a "Maturity Date") and an original principal amount,
and will bear interest at the per annum rate set forth on the cover page hereof. Distributions in respect of
interest on each Certificate will be made on each February 1 and August 1 (each a "Distribution Date") in an
amount equal to the interest accrued on the outstanding principal amount of such Certificate from and
including the immediately preceding Distribution Date or, in the case of the first Distribution Date, from and
including the Closing Date, to but excluding the related Distribution Date at the applicable interest rate. If any
such Distribution Date is not a Business Day (as defined below), distributions in respect of interest and
principal will be made on the next succeeding Business Day. The first Distribution Date for the Certificates
will be February 1, 2011. Distributions in respect of principal will be made on each Distribution Date based
on receipt of the principal amounts due on the Notes as of the Principal Due Date (as defined below)
corresponding to the Maturity Date for such Certificate except as provided in the following paragraph. A
"Business Day" shall be a day on which banking institutions in New York City are not required or authorized
to be closed and on which the Federal Reserve Bank and the New York Stock Exchange are not closed.
With respect to Certificates having Maturity Dates on or after August 1, 2021, principal distributions
may occur earlier than such Maturity Dates as a result of the prepayment of principal of the related Notes by
the Borrower in accordance with the provisions thereof (an "Optional Redemption") or as a result of the
occurrence of a default by a Borrower and the election by the Secretary to accelerate the Note to which the
default relates (an "Acceleration Event"). The payment made by the Secretary as a result of an Acceleration
Event is referred to herein as an Acceleration Payment" See "Description of Notes — Optional Redemption
and Acceleration."
Since principal amounts due on certain Notes are subject to payments in respect of Optional
Redemptions or Acceleration Payments, final distributions in respect of the Certificates may occur earlier than
the related Maturity Dates but no earlier than August 1, 2020. See "Description of Notes — Optional
Redemption and Acceleration." The Trustee will provide at least thirty days' notice to Certificateholders of
any Optional Redemption expected to occur.
The anticipated frequency and amount of principal payments in respect of Optional Redemptions and
Acceleration. Payments on the Notes cannot be predicted and will be influenced by a variety of factors. In the
event of any such principal payments, there can be no assurance that a holder of Certificates (a
"Certificateholder") entitled to distributions of principal in respect thereof will be able to reinvest such
distributions in comparably yielding securities. See "Risk Factors — The rate of prepayment on the Notes is
uncertain and may adversely affect the average life of and yield on the Certificates."
Book -Entry Only Registration of the Certificates
The Certificates will initially be issued in book -entry form and be registered as a single certificate for
each Maturity Date in the name of Cede & Co. ("Cede"), as nominee of DTC. As used in this Offering
Circular, Certificateholders are persons in whose name a Certificate is registered in the register maintained by
the Trustee. For so long as the Certificates are in book -entry form with DTC, the only "Certificateholder" of
the Certificates as the term "Certificateholder" is used in the Trust Agreement will be Cede. No person
acquiring an interest in the Certificates will be entitled to receive a definitive certificate representing such
person's interest in the Trust ("Definitive Certificates"), except in the event that Definitive Certificates are
issued under the limited circumstances set forth below. Unless Definitive Certificates are issued, all references
herein to Certificateholders shall mean and include the rights of beneficial owners of Certificates, as such
rights may be exercised through DTC and its participating organizations.
Under a book -entry format, as long as the only Certificateholder is Cede, the beneficial holders of
Certificates will not be recognized by the Trustee as Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement. The
beneficial holders of such Certificates will be permitted to exercise the rights of Certificateholders under the
7
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro
10:49:28 a.m. 12-14-2010 10 /21
Trust Agreement only indirectly through DTC and its Participants (as defined below), who in turn will exercise
their rights through DTC.
Definitive Certificates will be issued in registered form to Certificateholders, or their nominees, rather
than to DTC, only if (i) DTC or the Sponsor advises the Trustee in writing that DTC is no longer willing or
able to discharge properly its responsibilities as nominee and depository with respect to the Certificates and
the Sponsor is unable to locate a qualified successor, or (ii) the beneficial owners of the Certificates
representing not less than 51% of the aggregate original principal balance of the book -entry Certificates advise
the Trustee and DTC that the book -entry system is no longer in the best interests of such beneficial owners.
Upon issuance of Definitive Certificates to Certificateholders, such Certificates will be transferable directly
(and not exclusively on a look -entry basis) and registered holders will deal directly with the Trustee with
respect to transfers, notices and distributions.
DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a
member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the Uniform
Commercial Code and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DTC was created to hold securities for its participating
organizations ("Participants") and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between
Participants through electronic book -entry changes in their accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical
movement of securities. Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing
corporations and may include certain other organizations. Indirect access to the DTC system also is available
to others such as brokers, dealers, banks and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial
relationship with a Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participant").
Under a book -entry format, Certificateholders that are not Participants or Indirect Participants but desire
to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of Certificates registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of
DTC, may do so only through Participants and Indirect Participants. Such Certificateholders will receive all
distributions of principal of and interest on the Certificates from the Trustee through DTC and its Participants.
Under a book -entry format, Certificateholders may receive distributions after the related Distribution Date
because, while distributions are required to be forwarded to Cede, as nominee for DTC, on each such date, DTC
will forward such distributions to its Participants, which thereafter will be required to forward them to Indirect
Participants or Certificateholders. For so long as DTC shall be the only registered Certificateholder, the
Certificateholder shall be paid by wire transfer for the account of such person in immediately available funds to
a commercial bank located in the continental United States having appropriate facilities therefor upon written
request received by the Trustee on or before the Record Date, as defined herein, prior to the applicable
Distribution Date. If DTC shall no longer be the only registered Certificateholder, any Certificateholder holding
Certificates in an aggregate original principal amount of less than $1 million shall be paid by check to the person
in whose name such Certificates ate registered at the close of business on the Record Date.
Under the rules, regulations and procedures creating and affecting DTC and its operations, DTC is
required to make book -entry transfers among Participants on whose behalf it acts with respect to the
Certificates and is required to receive and transmit distributions of principal of and interest on the Certificates.
Participants and Indirect Participants with which Certificateholders have accounts with respect to the
Certificates similarly are required to make book -entry transfers and receive and transmit such distributions on
behalf of such Certificateholders. Accordingly, although Certificateholders will not possess physical
certificates, such rules, regulations and procedures provide a mechanism by which Certificateholders will
receive distributions and will be able to transfer their interests.
Certificateholders who are not Participants may transfer ownership of Certificates only through
Participants by instructing such Participants to transfer Certificates, by book -entry transfer, through DTC for
the account of the purchasers of such Certificates, which account is maintained with their respective
Participants. Under the rules and in accordance with DTC's normal procedures, transfers of ownership of
Certificates will be executed through DTC and the accounts of the respective Participants at DTC will be
debited and credited. Similarly, the respective Participants will make debits or credits, as the case may be, on
their records on behalf of the selling and purchasing Certificateholders.
8
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro
10:49: 54 a.m. 12-14-2010 11 /21
Because DTC can act only on behalf of Participants, who in turn act on behalf of Indirect Participants
and certain banks, the ability of a Certificateholder to pledge Certificates to persons or entities that do not
participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions in respect of such Certificates, may be limited due to
the lack of a physical certificate for such Certificates.
DTC in general advises that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a Certificateholder under
a Trust Agreement only at the direction of one or more Participants to whose account the Certificates are
credited. Additionally, DTC in general advises that it will take such actions with respect to specified
percentages of the Certificateholders only at the direction of and on behalf of Participants whose holdings
include current principal amounts of outstanding Certificates that satisfy such specified percentages. DTC may
take conflicting actions with respect to other current principal amounts of outstanding Certificates to the extent
that such actions are taken on behalf of Participants whose holdings include such current principal amounts of
outstanding Certificates.
Any Certificates initially registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, will be issued in fully
registered form as Definitive Certificates to Certificateholders or their nominees, rather than to DTC or its
nominee, only under the events specified in the Trust Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any of the events
specified in the Trust Agreement, DTC will be required to notify all Participants of the availability through
DTC of Definitive Certificates. Upon surrender by DTC of the physical certificates representing the
Certificates and instruction for reregistration, the Trustee will issue the Certificates in the form of Definitive
Certificates, and thereafter the Trustee will recognize the holders of such Definitive Certificates as
Certificateholders. Thereafter, distributions of principal of and interest on the Certificates will be made by the
Trustee directly to Certificateholders in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Trust Agreement. The
final distributions in respect of any Certificate (whether Definitive Certificates or Certificates registered in the
name of Cede), however, will be made only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates on the final
Distribution Date at such office or agency as is pursuant to the Trust Agreement.
Same -Day Settlement and Payment
Settlement for the Certificates will be made by the Underwriters in immediately available funds. All
payments of principal and interest on the Certificates will be made in immediately available funds so long as
the Certificates are maintained in book -entry form.
Secondary trading in long-term notes and debentures of corporate issuers is generally settled in
clearing house or next -day funds. In contrast, the Certificates will trade in DTC's Same -Day Funds Settlement
System and secondary trading activity in the Certificates will therefore be required by DTC to settle in
immediately available funds. No assurance can be given as to the effect, if any, of settlement in immediately
available funds on trading activity in the Certificates.
DESCRIPTION OF NOTES
General
The Trustee will be the holder of each Note for the benefit of the Trust. The funding of the Notes is
being arranged by the sale of individual beneficial interests in the Trust to the Certificateholders. Each Note
contained in the Trust specifies one or more dates on which principal amounts are due (each such date, a
"Principal Due Date") and the rate of interest corresponding to each such amount. Each Note requires
semiannual payments of interest by Borrowers seven Business Days (as defined above) prior to each February 1
or August 1 (each such February 1 or August 1, an "Interest Due Date"), commencing January 21, 2011.
Interest on the outstanding principal amount of each Note will accrue at the respective pass -through interest
rate on the basis of a year of 360 days, consisting of twelve 30-day months, from the Closing Date until the
date as of which such principal amount is paid. Each date on which payments in respect of interest, and, if
applicable, principal are required to be made by the related Borrower is a "Note Payment Date." Payments of
interest and principal due under the Notes will be made to the Trustee. The Trustee will collect payments of
interest and principal due on the Notes (including payments in respect of Optional Redemptions and
9
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro
10:50:16 a.m, 12-14-2010 12/21
Acceleration Payments, if any) and remit such payments, together with any amounts received from the
Secretary under the Guarantee, to the Certificateholders entitled thereto on the corresponding Distribution
Date. Late payments of interest made by Borrowers will be deposited by the Trustee into the Certificate
Account (as defined below) upon receipt thereof and such payments will be promptly transmitted to the
Secretary as reimbursement for payments made pursuant to the Guarantee.
Scheduled Payments on the Notes
Pursuant to the terms of each Note, each Borrower will be required to deposit with the Trustee all
principal and interest payments then required to be made on the related Note no later than 3:00 P.M. (New
York City time) on each Note Payment Date. No later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the sixth
Business Day next preceding each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall determine whether all payments
required to be made on the Notes have been received from each Borrower. If such payments have not been
received, the Trustee shall notify HUD on such clay that it may be required to make one or more payments
pursuant to the Guarantee, and shall specify the amount thereof. If moneys in the requisite amount shall not
have been received by the Trustee from the related Borrowers by the close of business on the third Business
Day next preceding such Distribution Date, the Trustee shall notify HUD on such Business Day that it is
required to make a payment pursuant to the Guarantee, and shall provide notice of the amount. HUD shall
make any payment required to be made under the Guarantee directly into the Certificate Account by
10:00 A.M. on such Distribution Date. The Notes provide that Certificateholders shall rely exclusively on the
Secretary for enforcement thereunder and no Certificateholder shall have any right to enforce the Notes
directly against any Borrower.
Optional Redemption and Acceleration
Any principal amount due on a Note on or after August 1, 2021 may be prepaid by the Borrower, in
whole or in part, without penalty or premium, as of any Interest Due Date on or after August 1, 2020 and will
be distributed to the Certificateholders entitled thereto on the Distribution Date corresponding to such Interest
Due Date. Payments made in respect of such Optional Redemptions will be applied to outstanding principal
amounts of the related Note in accordance with instructions received by the Trustee from the related Borrower
and approved by HUD. As a result, such Optional Redemptions will be distributed in respect of Certificates
with Maturity Dates corresponding to the Principal Due Dates of the outstanding principal amounts of the
related Note as to which the Borrower, with approval of the Secretary, has instructed that the Trustee apply
such redemptions. As provided in the Trust Agreement, notice by a Borrower of its intention to prepay a Note
may not be revoked.
If a Borrower is in default under the related Note and Contract (as defined below), whether for
non-payment or other reason specified in such Note and Contract, the Secretary will continue to make timely
payments of principal and interest pursuant to the corresponding Note Guarantee, if the Borrower does not do
so. However, the Secretary may, but is not obligated to, make on any Distribution Date on or after August 1,
2020 an Acceleration Payment to the Trustee equal to the entire unpaid principal amount of a Note, together
with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the related Interest Due Date.
Prepayments or defaults by a Borrower will not result in (i) distribution of principal to the
Certificateholders entitled to such distribution prior to the earlier of either the related Maturity Date or the
Distribution Date occurring on or after August I, 2020 or (ii) distribution of interest on the related Certificates
at any time other than the Distribution Dates on which such interest is required to be distributed.
FULL FAITH AND CREDIT GUARANTEE
Pursuant to Section 108 of the HCD Act, the Secretary guarantees timely payment of principal and
interest as of the respective Interest Due Dates and Principal Due Dates under each Note. The Note Guarantee
is set forth in the guarantee executed on behalf of the United States by the Secretary, In the event a Borrower
fails to make any payment of principal or interest due on the related Note on a Note Payment Date, the
Secretary will assure that such principal or interest payment is made on or before the Distribution Date
10
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro
10:50:39a.m. 12-14-2010 13/21
immediately following such Note Payment Date. The full faith and credit of the United States is pledged to
honor the performance of the Note Guarantee.
The Secretary also guarantees to the Certificateholders the timely pass -through distribution of interest and
principal on the Certificates. The Certificate Guarantee is set forth on the Certificates and is executed on behalf of
the United States by the Secretary. The full faith and credit of the United States is pledged to honor the
performance of the Certificate Guarantee. As long as DTC or its nominee shall be the only registered
Certificateholder, the Trustee shall act as DTC's agent solely for the purpose of enforcing the Certificate Guarantee.
Collectively, the Note Guarantee and the Certificate Guarantee form the Guarantee. In the event that
the principal amount of a Note is prepaid as a result of an Optional Redemption or Acceleration Payment, the
obligation of the Secretary represented by the Certificate Guarantee will be reduced by (i) the amount of
principal so prepaid upon the pass -through distribution of such payments to Certificateholders, and (ii) the
amount of interest that would have accrued on such principal thereafter.
Should there be any change in the status of HUD as a United States Department, the Guarantee and
the full faith and credit of the United States pledged to honor the performance of the Guarantee will not be
altered or impaired.
DESCRIPTION OF SECTION 108 LOAN GUARANTEE PROGRAM
HUD is an executive department of the United States of America, established in 1965 by the
Department of Housing and Urban Development Act. At its establishment, HUD was vested with the
functions, powers, and duties of the Housing and Home Finance Agency, the Federal Housing Administration,
the Public Housing Administration and the predecessor of the Government National Mortgage Association.
HUD administers the principal Federal government programs that provide assistance for housing and for
community development.
Pursuant to Title I of the HCD Act, HUD is required to calculate annual formula -based allocations of
appropriated community development block grant ("CDBG") funds and provide grants based thereon to units of
general local government that meet statutory and regulatory requirements — generally, cities with populations of
50,000 or more (including the District of Columbia) and urban counties with populations of 200,000 or more
(the "Community Development Block Grant Entitlement Program"). Similarly, HUD is also required to calculate
annual formula -based allocations and provide CDBG grants therefrom to states (including, for this purpose, the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico ("States")) that have elected and met the statutory and regulatory requirements to
administer and distribute such CDBG funds to units of general local government in nonentitlement areas of such
States (the "State Community Development Block Grant Program"). The States award CDBG funds to units of
general local government in nonentitlement areas pursuant to a distribution plan and related documents submitted
annually to HUD. In two States (New York and Hawaii), HUD has historically provided CDBG grants directly
to units of general local government from the annual CDBG allocation calculated for each such State. Beginning
with the CDBG allocation for nonentitlement areas of New York State for Federal fiscal year 2000, the State of
New York elected and met the applicable requirements to administer and distribute such allocation to units of
general local government in nonentitlement areas of the State. In all cases, the CDBG grants may be used for a
variety of eligible community development activities in accordance with the applicable regulations and grant
agreements.
Pursuant to Section 108 of the HCD Act, HUD may guarantee (the "Section 108 Loan Guarantee
Program"): (i) notes or other obligations issued by units of general local government eligible to receive annual
CDBG grants under the Community Development Block Grant Entitlement Program, units of general local
government eligible to receive CDBG grants from their State government under the State Community
Development Block Grant Program, and units of general local government eligible to receive CDBG grants
directly from HUD in Hawaii and certain units of general local government with pre -Federal fiscal year 2000
awards in New York, or by public agencies designated by such local governments; and (ii) certificates backed
by trusts or pools of such notes. Each unit of general local government pledges its current and future CDBG
grants and grant allocations for the repayment of its note under the Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program. In
11
2027081744
Affordable Housing Pro
10:51:03 a.m. 12-14-2010 14/21
the case of a local government eligible to receive CDBG grants from its State government, the State also
pledges its current and future annual CDBG grants and grant allocations for the repayment of the loan
guaranteed under the Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program. A State or local government generally is not
required to pledge its full faith and credit to secure repayment of loans under the Section 108 Loan Guarantee
Program. In addition to a Note, each Borrower under the Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program executes a
related Contract for Loan Guarantee Assistance (each, a "Contract") with the Secretary that sets forth the
applicable pledge of CDBG grants and allocations.
TRUST AGREEMENT
The Certificates will be issued pursuant to a (i) Trust Agreement dated as of January 1, 1995,
between the Secretary, as authorized by the Borrowers in their respective Contracts, and The Bank of New
York Mellon (successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.), as Trustee, as amended (the "Trust Agreement"), and
(ii) a Supplement to such Trust Agreement dated as of the Closing Date relating specifically to the Certificates
(the "Supplement"). Certiftcateholders will be entitled to the benefits of such Trust Agreement to the full
extent provided therein. The responsibilities of the Trustee, summarized below, are limited to those set forth in
the Trust Agreement, and no further responsibilities should be inferred. All references to time herein refer to
New York City time.
The Supplement and the Trust Agreement will be available for reasonable inspection and copying by any
Certificateholder or its designee, at such person's expense, at the Trustee's Corporate Trust Office, 525 William Penn
Place, 38th Floor, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15259.
Exchange of Notes; Issuance of Certificates
Pursuant to the Supplement and the Trust Agreement, the Secretary, as sponsor of the Trust on behalf
of the Borrowers, will deliver to the Trustee each Note to be included in the related Trust. In exchange
therefor, the Secretary, through The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee, will issue Certificates representing
fractional undivided interests in such Trust to or upon the order of the Underwriters. All Certificates will
initially be registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC. See "Description of Certificates — Book -
Entry Only Registration of the Certificates."
Appointment of Trustee
The Secretary has appointed the Trustee to administer the Notes pursuant to the Supplement and the
Trust Agreement but retains full power and authority, acting alone; to do any and all things in connection with
such administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. The Secretary retains the sole and exclusive
right to take action and assert claims with respect to the Notes. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Secretary may execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, any and
all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable
instruments, with respect to the Notes.
Collection of Note Payments — Certificate Account
The Trustee will establish and maintain a separate non -interest -bearing trust account (the "Certificate
Account") into which the Trustee will deposit the following payments and collections received by it in respect
of principal of and interest on the Notes: (i) all interest payments on the Notes, including those made by the
Secretary pursuant to a Note Guarantee; (ii) all payments of principal of the Notes, including amounts paid by
the Secretary in respect thereof pursuant to a Note Guarantee; (iii) all payments in respect of Optional
Redemptions; and (iv) all Acceleration Payments.
The Trustee will not deposit into the Certificate Account any payment received from a Borrower on
account of an Optional Redemption unless such payment conforms to all of the requirements specified in the
related Note for an Optional Redemption; provided, however, that the receipt of any non -conforming payment
will not in any way reduce the obligation of the Secretary under the related Note Guarantee. Any payments
12
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro
10:51:24a.m. 12-14-2010 15/21
received from a Borrower that were previously covered by payments made by the Secretary under a Note
Guarantee (including late payments of interest and principal) and any payments received from a Borrower after
an Acceleration Payment has been made with respect to the related Note will be deposited by the Trustee into
the Certificate Account upon receipt thereof, and such payments will be promptly transmitted to the Secretary.
Distributions to the Certificateholders
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee will distribute to the Certificateholders of record as of the
close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Distribution Date (the "Record Date"),
other than as described herein or in the Trust Agreement respecting any Definitive Certificate or the final
distribution on any Certificate, the respective amounts of interest and principal to which such Certificateholders
are entitled from all related amounts credited to the Certificate Account as of 10:00 A.M. on the applicable
Distribution Date.
Statements to the Holders
At the time of each distribution, the Trustee will furnish to each Certificateholder a statement setting
forth the following information, stated on the basis of $1,000 original principal amount, with respect to the
Certificates owned of record by such Certif'icateholder.
(i) the amount of such distribution allocable to principal;
(ii) the amount of such distribution allocable to interest; and
(iii) the amount of such Certificateholder's fractional undivided interest in the aggregate unpaid principal
amounts of Notes due on the Principal Due Date coinciding with the Maturity Date for such
Certificates, after giving effect to distributions of principal made on such Certificates distributed on
such Distribution Date.
In addition, within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Trustee will
furnish a report to each person who has held the status of Certificateholder at any time during such calendar
year as to the aggregate of amounts reported pursuant to (i) and (ii) above for such calendar year or, in the
event such person was a Certificateholder of record during a portion of such calendar year, for the applicable
portion of such year.
Modifications of Notes
Any term of any Note may be modified by such amendments as may be agreed upon from time to
time by the Secretary and the Borrower under such Note. No such change in the terms of any Note shall alter
or affect the Note Guarantee with respect to such Note on the basis of the terms thereof as of the date of the
Note Guarantee.
Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates
The Trustee has been appointed Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering the ownership of
Certificates and any transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee will maintain at its
Corporate Trust Office a Certificate Register in which, subject to such requirements as it may prescribe, the
Trustee will provide for the registration of the Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates.
A service charge equal to a reasonable fee of the Trustee will be charged to the person presenting a
Certificate for transfer or exchange, as the case may be, for any registration of transfer or exchange of such
Certificate. The Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
The Certificates will initially be issued in book -entry form only. See 'Description of Certificates —
Book -Entry Only Registration of the Certificates."

Persons Deemed Owners
Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Secretary, the Trustee and any
agent of the Secretary or the Trustee may treat the person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the
owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as described herein and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and the Secretary, the Trustee and any agent of the Secretary or the Trustee shall not be affected by
notice to the contrary. All Certificates will initially be registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC.
Amendments to the Trust Agreement
The Trust Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Secretary and the Trustee, without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall reduce in any
manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on Notes, including Guarantee Payments,
which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the related Certificateholders.
Termination
The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Secretary and the Trustee with respect to the
Trust (other than the obligation of the Secretary and the Trustee to make payments to Certificateholders as set
forth in the Trust Agreement) shall terminate upon the final payment of the last remaining principal amount of
a Note in the Trust, whether as of the Note Payment Date immediately preceding the related Principal Due
Date, upon an Acceleration Payment or upon an Optional Redemption.
With respect to any Certificate as to which a final payment is due to an Optional Redemption or an
Acceleration Payment, the Trustee will give notice of any such final payment by letter to the Certificateholders
(with a copy thereof to the Secretary) mailed not later than the fifth Business Day subsequent to the Note
Payment Date as of which all outstanding amounts of principal and accrued interest have been paid in full as a
result of Optional Redemptions, or on which the Secretary has given notice of Acceleration Events, or a
combination of both. Such notice will specify that final payment will be made from the Certificate Account
upon presentation and surrender of the Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, on the
Distribution Date immediately following such Note Payment Date. If final payment of a Certificate occurs
absent an Optional Redemption or Acceleration Payment, no notice will be given and final payment will be
made from the Certificate Account on the next following Distribution Date upon presentation and surrender of
the Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.
Any moneys held by the Trustee for the payment of any Certificate upon final payment that remain
unclaimed for six months after the Distribution Date on which such final payment was made available, will be
repaid to the Secretary. Certificateholders must thereafter look to the Secretary for payment of such amounts,
and all liability of the Trustee with respect to such amounts will thereupon cease.
TRUSTEE
The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation, serves as Trustee for the
Certificates and performs such duties as specified in the Trust Agreement and as described herein. The
Corporate Trust Office of The Bank of New York Mellon where its duties under the Trust Agreement shall be
performed is located at 525 William Penn Place, 38th Floor, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15259, Attention:
Corporate Trust Department. The Borrowers agreed in their Contracts with the Secretary to make single initial
payments as a condition of the Guarantee, either by separate checks or by deductions from the proceeds of the
Notes, intended to cover the ordinary and necessary costs of trust administration by the Trustee as long as the
Trust is outstanding, as approved by the Secretary.

IRS CIRCULAR 230 NOTICE
The Treasury Department revised Circular 230, containing regulations that may apply to the
summaries of federal income tax and ERISA provisions set out below or herein. In light of Circular 230, you
should be aware that
The discussions contained in this Offering Circular as to tax or ERISA considerations are not
intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding United States federal
income tax penalties. Such discussions are written to support the promotion or marketing of the
transaction addressed in this Offering Circular. Each taxpayer should seek advice based on the
taxpayer's particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.
The foregoing disclaimer has been provided to satisfy obligations under Circular 230, governing
standards of practice before the Internal Revenue Service.
TAX STATUS
The following is a general discussion of certain of the anticipated United States Federal income tax
consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Certificates under the Intemal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), without consideration of the particular facts and circumstances of each
prospective investor's special tax situation. The discussion addresses only a beneficial owner that acquires a
Certificate at original issuance and that holds the Certificate as a capital asset, and does not address a taxpayer
that is not a "United States Person" (as defined below). The discussion is based on interpretations of laws,
regulations, rulings and decisions, all of which are subject to change. Any such change may be applied
retroactively and may adversely affect the Federal income tax consequences described herein. Such discussion
is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), which may take a contrary view as to the matters
discussed herein. Accordingly, each prospective investor is urged to consult its own tax advisor with
respect to the United States Federal income tax consequences of holding a Certificate, as well as any
consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.
United States Persons
A "United States Person" is a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation, partnership or
other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any State (other than a
partnership that is not treated as a United States Person under any applicable Treasury regulations), or an
estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source of income, or a
trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the administration of the
trust and one or more United States Persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, to the extent provided in Treasury regulations, certain trusts in
existence on August 20, 1996, and treated as United States Persons prior to such date, that elect to continue to
be treated as United States Persons, also will be a United States Person,
Trust Assets
Each beneficial owner of a Certificate will be treated for Federal income tax purposes as an owner of
a fractional undivided interest in a portion of the Trust represented by particular payments of principal and
interest on the Notes. Each beneficial owner of a Certificate will be required to report on its Federal income
tax returns, consistent with its method of accounting, such income, including interest and, as discussed below,
the portion of any Optional Redemption or Acceleration Payment that exceeds its basis in the portion of the
Note being prepaid, as well as any amount paid by the Secretary as interest under its Guarantee.
The Trustee will furnish to each Certificateholder a statement with respect to each distribution, setting
forth the amount of such distribution allocable to principal and interest and the source thereof. In addition, the
Trustee will furnish, within a reasonable time after the end of each calendar year, to each person who was a
Certificateholder at any time during such year, a statement setting forth such Certificateholder's share of
interest received.
15
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro
10:52:25a.m. 12-14-2010 18/21
A beneficial owner of a Certificate who is an individual and certain pass -through entities, such as
partnerships, must also include in gross income a portion of the expenses of the Trust: An individual taxpayer
must treat such expenses as miscellaneous itemized deductions, and, as a result, an individual taxpayer's
ability to deduct such expenses may be limited.
Redemption Price
The portion of the prepayment price received by any beneficial owner of a Certificate in excess of the
beneficial owner's basis allocable to the Note that is prepaid will be treated as short-term or long-term capital
gain (assuming the Certificate is a capital asset in the hands of the beneficial owner).
Characterization of Certificates
Ownership of the Certificates will be treated as ownership of (i) `obligations of the United States"
within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(19)(C)(ii) of the Code, relating to the definition of Federal and
domestic savings and loan associations and certain other financial institutions; (ii) "government securities"
within the meaning of Section 851(b)(3) of the Code, relating to the definition of regulated investment
companies; (iii) "government securities" within the meaning of Section 856(c)(4)(A) of the Code, relating to
the definition of real estate investment trusts; and (iv) "obligations of the United States or of any agency or
instrumentality thereof" within the meaning of Section 895 of the Code, relating to the exemption from
withholding tax for foreign central banks of issue in certain circumstances. Ownership of Certificates will not
be treated as ownership of "obligations secured by mortgages on real property or on interests in real property"
for purposes of Section 856(c)(3)(B) of the Code, relating to the definition of real estate investment trusts.
State and Local Taxes
Under Title 31, Section 3124 of the United States Code, as amended, "obligations of the United States"
are exempt from state, municipal or local taxes, other than estate or inheritance taxes and nondiscriminatory
taxes or other nonproperty taxes imposed on corporations. The United States Supreme Court has held, however,
that certain Federally guaranteed trust or pool certificates should not be treated as "obligations of the United
States" for purposes of Section 3124, principally because such certificates are secondary, and not primary,
obligations of the United States. Consequently, beneficial owners of Certificates will be unable to claim that the
Certificates and the interest thereon are exempt from state, municipal, or local taxes under Section 3124 or under
the principle of intergovernmental tax immunity. Prospective investors are urged to consult their individual tax
advisors to determine the tax treatment of the Certificates and the interest thereon in their states.
Sale or Other Disposition
If a beneficial owner of a Certificate sells, exchanges or otherwise disposes of the Certificate, the
beneficial owner will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized by
the beneficial owner upon the sale, exchange or other disposition and the beneficial owner's adjusted tax basis in
the Certificate. The adjusted tax basis of a Certificate to a particular beneficial owner generally will equal the
beneficial owner's cost for the Certificate, increased by any discount previously included by such beneficial
owner in income with respect to the Certificate and decreased by the amount of principal payments previously
received by such beneficial owner with respect to the Certificate. Any such gain or Toss will be a capital gain or
loss if the Certificate was held as a capital asset, except for gain representing accrued interest and accrued
discount not previously included in income. Capital losses generally may be used only to offset capital gains.
Backup Withholding
A backup withholding tax may be imposed on any reportable payment unless the recipient (i) has
furnished under penalties of perjury an accurate taxpayer identification number or (ii) is exempt from the backup
withholding provisions of the Code. Corporations and certain other entities are, and individuals are not, exempt
from the backup withholding provisions. In the case of an individual, the individual's social security number is
his or her taxpayer identification number. A reportable payment would include interest payments to a beneficial
16
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro
10:52:47 a.m. 12-14-2010 19 /21
owner of a Certificate and proceeds from the sale of a Certificate before maturity to or through a broker or
dealer in securities. Any amount withheld under the backup withholding rules from a reportable payment to a
beneficial owner of a Certificate would be allowed as refundable credit against the beneficial owner's United
States Federal income tax, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS.
LEGAL MATTERS
The legality of the sale of the Certificates will be passed upon for the Secretary by the General
Counsel of the Department of Housing and Urban Development or his designee. Bingham McCutchen LLP,
Washington, D.C., will serve as counsel to the Underwriters.
LEGALITY OF INVESTMENT
The Certificates are acceptable as security for the deposit of public moneys subject to the control of
the United States or any of its officers, agents or employees, and are eligible as collateral for Treasury Tax
and Loan Accounts. Under Federal law, national banks and state banks which are members of the Federal
Reserve System may deal in, underwrite and purchase for their own account Certificates without regard to any
limitation based on capital and surplus.
The Certificates are eligible as security for advances to member banks by Federal Reserve Banks.
PURCHASES BY EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS — ERISA CONSIDERATIONS
The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") and Section 4975 of
the Code impose certain requirements on those employee benefit plans and other arrangements to which they
apply (collectively "Plans") and on those persons who are fiduciaries with respect to such Plans. Certain
employee benefit plans, such as governmental plans (as defined in ERISA Section 3(32)) and certain church
plans (as defined in ERISA Section (3)(33)), are not subject to ERISA, and assets of such plans may be
invested in the Certificates without regard to the ERISA considerations described below, subject to other
applicable Federal and state law. However, any such governmental or church plan which is qualified under
Section 401(a) of the Code and exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code is subject to the
prohibited transaction rules set forth in Section 503 of the Code.
Investments by Plans are subject to ERISA's general fiduciary requirements, including the requirement
of investment prudence and diversification and the requirement that a Plan's investments be made in
accordance with the documents governing the Plan.
Prohibited Transactions
In addition to the imposition of general fiduciary standards of investment prudence and diversification,
ERISA and the corresponding provisions of the Code prohibit a broad range of transactions involving assets of
a Plan ("plan assets") and persons having certain specified relationships to a Plan ("parties in interest" and
"disqualified persons"). Such transactions, including the acquisition of Certificates, are treated as "prohibited
transactions" under Sections 406 and 407 of ERISA, and excise taxes are imposed upon such persons and
upon such Plans by Section 4975 of the Code.
Plan Assets Regulations
Pursuant to Department of Labor Regulation §2510.3-101 (the "Plan Assets Regulation"), in general
when a Plan acquires an equity interest in an entity such as the Trust and such interest does not represent a
"publicly offered security" (that is owned by one hundred or more investors independent of the issuer and of
one another) or a security issued by an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, the Plan's assets include both the equity interest and an undivided interest in each of the
underlying assets of the entity, unless it is established either that the entity is an "operating company" or that
equity participation in the entity by "benefit plan investors" is not "significant". In general, an "equity interest"
is defined under the Plan Assets Regulation as any interest in an entity other than an instrument which is
17
2027081744 Affordable Housing Pro
10: 53:08 a.m. 12-14-2010 20/21
treated as indebtedness under applicable local law and which has no substantial equity features. It is
anticipated that the Certificates will be considered equity interests in the Trust for purposes of the Plan Assets
Regulation, and that the assets of the Trust may therefore constitute plan assets if Certificates are acquired by
Plans. In such event, the fiduciary and prohibited transaction restrictions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the
Code would apply to transactions involving the assets of the Trust. Specifically, transactions occurring in the
management of the Trust's assets might constitute prohibited transactions, and if any of the Borrowers or
certain affiliates of the Trust are considered or become "parties in interest" or "disqualified persons" with
respect to a Plan, the acquisition or holding of Certificates by or on behalf of such Plan could be considered to
give rise to a "prohibited transaction" within the meaning of ERISA and the Code, unless a statutory,
regulatory or administrative exemption is available. Class exemptions granted by the Department of Labor,
such as Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 84-14 (Class Exemption for Certain Transactions
Involving a Qualified Professional Asset Manager), PTCE 91-38 (Class Exemption for Certain Transactions
Involving Bank Collective Investment Funds), PTCE 90-1 (Class Exemption for Certain Transactions Involving
Insurance Company Pooled Separate Accounts), PTCE 95-60 (Class Exemption for Certain Transactions
Involving Insurance Company General Accounts) or PTCE 96-23 (Class Exemption for Certain Transactions
Involving an In -House Asset Manager) may exempt certain, but not necessarily all, specified transactions
involving such assets. There is a statutory exemption that may be available under Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA
and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code to a party in interest that is a service provider to a Plan investing in the
Certificates for adequate consideration, provided such service provider is not (i) the fiduciary with respect to
the Plan's assets used to acquire the Certificates or an affiliate of such fiduciary or (ii) an affiliate of the
employer sponsoring the Plan. However, Department of Labor Regulation § 2550.408b-2 exempts ordinary and
necessary servicing transactions and may apply in connection with the management of the Trust and its assets,
which management duties may be ministerial in nature and not involve the exercise of fiduciary discretion.
Conclusion
Fiduciaries of Plans should consider whether (i) an investment in the Trust is permitted under the
governing Plan instruments and is appropriate for the Plan in view of its overall investment policy, the
composition and diversification of its portfolio, and (ii) an investment in the Certificates could give rise to a
prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code. Consequently, we suggest that each investor subject to
ERISA consult with its legal counsel concerning the matters discussed above.
UNDERWRITING
The Underwriters named below acting through their Representative, Credit Suisse Securities (USA)
LLC (the "Representative") have severally agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting

If the Underwriters create a short position in the Certificates in connection with the offering, i.e., if
they sell more Certificates than is set forth on the cover page of this Offering Circular, the Underwriters may
reduce that short position by purchasing such Certificates in the open market.
In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could
cause the price of the security to be higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases.
Neither HUD nor the Underwriters makes any representation or prediction as to the direction or
magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the prices of such Certificates. In
addition, the Underwriters make no representation that the Underwriters will engage in such transactions or
that such transactions, if commenced, will continue.
The Secretary has been advised by the Representative that the Underwriters propose to offer the
Certificates to the public initially at the offering prices set forth on the cover page of this Offering Circular
and to certain dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of the amount set forth below for each
Maturity Date. The Underwriters may allow and such dealers may reallow a concession not in excess of the
amount set forth below for each Maturity Date to certain other dealers. After the initial public offering, the
public offering prices and such concessions may be changed. The Certificates are a new issue of securities
with no established trading market. The Underwriters intend to make a market in the Certificates but are not
obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. No assurance can be
given as to the Iiquidity of the trading market for the Certificates.
