CITY COUNCIL MEETING City Manager’s Report
June 18, 2018 CONSENT AGENDA #2018‐12 Item 18-2012 Main Street Closure for Railroad Days Staff recommends approval of a resolution for the temporary closure of Main Street for Railroad Days. The closure of Main Street (U.S. Route 150) from Seminary to the west side of the square requires state approval. A detour will be established around Main Street from Ferris to Simmons. Item 18-4070 Illinois Trust Investment Program Staff recommends City Council approve the utilization of the Illinois Portfolio as an investment option for the City of Galesburg. The Illinois Portfolio is a diversified, open-end actively managed investment trust designed to address the short-term cash investment needs of Illinois public investors. Item 18-4071 Agreement with University of Illinois Chicago for HELP Study Staff recommends approval of an Intergovernmental Grant Agreement (IGA) with the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) for a study in conjunction with the State of Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (IDCEO) Help Eliminate Lead Program (HELP) Grant. The City will receive grant funds from DCEO that will be utilized to cover one hundred percent of the expense of this agreement. Item 18-4072 SCBAs for Fire Department Staff recommends approval of the quote submitted by Grainger in the amount of $8,798.94 for the purchase of six MSA SCBA (self-contained breathing apparatus) cylinders. The Galesburg Fire Department utilizes these cylinders as a normal part of their operations. The cylinders must be replaced after 15 years of service, and currently there is a group of MSA SCBAs in need of replacement. The manufacturer only makes the tanks available to specific vendors in each region. The vendor for our region is Grainger and pricing provided is within the anticipated range. Item 18-8011 Bills Bills and Advanced Checks are submitted for approval; please direct questions to Gloria Osborn, Director of Finance and Information Systems. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS Item 18-1009 Rental Licensing Program (Final Reading) – Tabled Staff recommends approval of an ordinance establishing the City of Galesburg Rental Licensing Program. The highlights of the proposed ordinance include the following: All rental units will be inspected either by City staff or by self-inspection once every five years. All self-inspection qualified units are still subject to complaint based and/or random
inspections. Rental units that have uncorrected violations or are non-compliant do not qualify for self-inspection.
The Housing Code Minimum standards will be utilized as the basis for the rental inspections.

Prepared by: TT Page 2 of 4
Rental Registrations will be revised to Rental Licensure. If Landlords are unresponsive to correcting deficiencies they will not be renewed when the license comes up for the annual renewal, unless the deficiencies are corrected or an agreed upon corrective action plan is in place.
Rental units which will be vacant for more an annual renewal period will not be required to be licensed if the owner submits a sworn statement affirming that fact.
The license fee will stay at $15 per rental unit, which is the same that it has been for the last eight years.
Item 18-1010 Housing Minimum Standards (Final Reading) – Tabled Staff recommends approval of an ordinance establishing minimum housing standards. This ordinance proposes definition changes for safety exits; standardizes the time elements in accountability and enforcement; simplifies the explanations for lighting, ventilation and window needs and providing adequate fire safety exits for all dwellings. The proposed ordinance would apply to all owner occupied and rental dwellings in the City of Galesburg. Item 18-1012 Amending Class A Liquor Licenses (Final Reading) Staff recommends approval of an ordinance removing one excess Class A liquor license from the City’s inventory. Interested parties in the future can make an application to the Liquor Commissioner and City Council to receive a Class A license. Item 18-1013 Vacation Ordinance for Alley North of West Water Street (First Reading) Staff recommends approval of an ordinance vacating an alley adjacent to Water Street between West Street and Cedar Street to the adjoining land owners. The alley is an unimproved alley that does not serve any public purpose. All three adjoining property owners have been notified of the proposed vacation and city staff did not receive any objections to the proposed vacation. BIDS, PETITIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS Item 18-3029 Demolition and Clean-up of Three Properties Staff recommends City Council award the demolition and clean-up of 809 N. Cedar Street, 788 S. Henderson Street, and 833 E. Brooks Streets to Lockwood Excavating & Construction, Inc. These properties have been found to be either dangerous to the general public or not economically feasible to restore, and the necessary steps have been taken through the court system for the demolition of the properties. Lockwood Excavating & Construction, Inc. was the sole respondent to the request for bids, with a total bid for all three properties of $28,000. The bids submitted by Lockwood are within budget for the work. Item 18-3030 Berrien Street Reconstruction Staff recommends approval of the net bid of $489,742.10 from Illinois Civil Contractors, Inc. for reconstruction of Berrien Street from Henderson Street to Holton Street. The existing street base and concrete curb and gutter will be completely removed and replaced with a new full depth concrete pavement and concrete curb and gutter. This contract also includes construction of all new concrete driveway approaches from the street to the back of the sidewalk as well as replacement of the sidewalks. Three bids were received for this project, with Illinois Civil Contractors, Inc. providing the low bid.

Item 18-3031 Lombard Street Reconstruction Staff recommends approval of the net bid of $449,209.49 from Laverdiere Construction Inc. for reconstruction of Lombard Street from Brooks Street to South Street. The existing street base and concrete curb and gutter will be completely removed and replaced with a new full depth concrete pavement and concrete curb and gutter. This contract also includes construction of all new concrete driveway approaches from the street to the back of the sidewalk as well as replacement of the sidewalks. Three bids were received for this project with Laverdiere Construction Inc. providing the low bid. CITY MANAGER’S REPORT A. Special Events:
a. Use of airport for an Airport Open House on June 20, 2018 b. Use of Lake Storey Park for ARRL Field Day on June 23 – 24, 2018
MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS (Agreements, Approvals, Etc.) Item 18-4073 Hawthorne Water Tower Fiber Staff recommends the City Council waive normal purchasing policies and approve the purchase of direct burial armored fiber optic cable for connection to the Hawthorne water tower from Springfield Electric in the amount of $12,897.93. This data connection provides a more reliable and higher speed control of the water tower, and going forward, the ability to add security cameras and other physical security features. Although this purchase would normally be a bid process, IT has received multiples quotes from vendors for this project and are confident that a broad spectrum of potential vendors were reached and the City is receiving a fair price for this purchase. Item 18-4074 Solar Lease Agreements for the Logistics Park Staff recommends approval of the proposed lease with Community Power Group (CPG) to allow for the development of community solar gardens at the Logistics Park property. The lease agreement provides an initial annual lease amount of $1,200 per acre with a 1.5% escalator per year. The proposed lease amount is almost five times more rent than the current rent amounts. The term of lease shall be 25 years with up to two five-year extensions upon mutual agreement of the parties. CPG will have up to three years from the effective date of the lease agreement to start installation work, if not, then the City has the right to terminate the agreement. The solar arrays will be community solar gardens with up to 40 percent of the power produced being sold back to the City of Galesburg for municipal use and the balance being sold to residents at a reduced rate. Item 18-4075 Parks and Recreation Marketing Plan Staff recommends City Council approve the proposal submitted by McDaniels Marketing for development of a logo and marketing plan for the Parks and Recreation Department. Selection of McDaniels Marketing is recommended, as the Chamber of Commerce is also utilizing their services and having one vendor handle both will ensure the two marketing plans are complementary. Recreation has budgeted sufficient funds for this service.

WHEREAS, the future of our community, our state and our nation depends upon the type of young people we rear to handle the affairs of tomorrow; and
WHEREAS, the accomplishments and achievements of these young citizens deserve recognition and commendation for their efforts; and
WHEREAS, the citizens of our community are pleased to join in expressing appreciation and approval of the contributions of our young people; and
WHEREAS, Nicolas Lee Smith has been nominated by Mary Cooper to receive the Galesburg Youth Extra Effort Award for some of the following reasons:
Nicolas has been involved with Big Brothers/Big Sisters since he was five years old. He grew up in public housing and was born with a medical condition called Apraxia, which is a speech and language disorder. Doctors told his mother that he would never be able to talk and would be mentally challenged. Nicolas was determined to overcome his speech deficient in spite of the dire predictions, and not only learned how to talk but is also noted to be well above average in intelligence.
Nicolas recently won an award at Galesburg High School for the highest scores in his advanced Math and Science classes. He is enrolled in the Dual Credit Program and is concurrently taking classes at Carl Sandburg College and his life goal is to be a nuclear physicist.
In addition to Nicolas’ focus on academics, he takes the time to volunteer with local youth, serving as a teen leader in his Vacation Bible School program. He also serves as a mentor to a homeschool program, helping younger children with math and teaching computer skills. Nicolas also teaches bicycle safety and maintenance, as well as helping with foster children by reading and helping them at meal times.
NOW THEREFORE, I, John Pritchard, Mayor of the City Galesburg, Illinois, do hereby urge all citizens in Galesburg to join me in commending Nicolas Lee Smith for his valuable service to our community and receiving the Galesburg Youth Extra Effort Award.

June 4, 2018 Page 3 of 8
Council Member Bastian stated that a notice of inspection should only be prompted by a tenant complaint, not citizen complaints. Bastian expressed her concern with citizen’s making illegitimate complaints, which would waste the time of City staff. City Manager Thompson explained that some tenants might be fearful of repercussions from their landlord and would have someone else submit a complaint on their behalf. Council Members Andersen and Schwartzman added similar concerns if only tenants were allowed to turn in complaints on rental properties. Adding that neighbors could see violations that the tenant won’t turn in or a tenant may be incapable of submitting a complaint. Mayor Pritchard noted that Section 8 (c) of the proposed ordinance states that the complainant must have direct knowledge of said violations stating facts and corroborating evidence. This addresses the concern for false complaints. Council Member Bastian moved, seconded by Council Member Andersen, to table agenda item 18‐1009.

Council Member Bastian moved, seconded by Council Member Allen, to table agenda item 18‐1010. Roll Call #6: Ayes: Council Members Bastian, Andersen, Schwartzman, and Allen, 4.

Ayes: Council Members Bastian, Fleming, Andersen, Schwartzman, and Allen, 6. Nays: None Absent: Council Members Dennis, and Karlin, 2. Chairman declared motion carried. 18‐4069 Council Member Allen moved, seconded by Council Member Andersen, to approve a 2018 Classification and Salary Schedule with the addition of the City Engineer position and removal of the Assistant City Engineer position. Council Member Fleming stated that he will be voting no on this item noting that that the City already has a City Engineer which meets the State requirements. The City should continue to pursue finding a candidate for an Assistant City Engineer. Council Member Bastian noted that council had just approved to have administration search for an Assistant City Engineer, and questioned why the position of City Engineer is being brought forward. City Manager stated that they did do a search for an Assistant City Engineer and were unable to attract any qualified candidates. Thompson added that engineers are in great demand and the City needs to be more competitive in salaries to get applicants. Bastian asked if the City had a candidate for the new City Engineer position. Thompson replied that the City did have a qualified candidate for this position contingent upon the approval of the change in salary and position. Bastian stated that this has become public knowledge and asked if this was a common practice for Administration to make an offer prior to council approval. Thompson added that the council doesn’t have to approve the salary, only the change in position from Assistant Engineer to City Engineer. Bastian noted that her main concern is the impact this would have on the budget and believes the City should keep operating as is and try to continue to pursue someone for the Assistant City Engineer position. Council Member Allen stated that if we want to continue to improve our streets and infrastructure, the City needs to have a qualified engineer to oversee these projects. Council Member Andersen concurred with Council Member Allen. Roll Call #14: Ayes: Council Members Andersen, Schwartzman, and Allen, 3. Nays: Council Members Bastian, and Fleming, 2.

CITY OF GALESBURG COUNCIL LETTER
JUNE 18, 2018
AGENDA ITEM: Utilize Illinois Portfolio as an investment option.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager and Director of Finance and Information Systems recommend approval of the utilization of the Illinois Portfolio as an investment option for the City of Galesburg.
BACKGROUND: An investment tool is available to diversify the City’s investment portfolio. The Illinois Portfolio is a diversified, open-end actively managed investment trust designed to address the short-term cash investment needs of Illinois public investors. The investment stresses safety of principal as its number one objective, which is underscored by its AAAm rating from Standards and Poor’s. The trust is owned and operated by its investors, which ensures that the trust remains focused on the particular needs of the Illinois municipal investors. As of the writing of the council letter, the current rate of the Illinois Portfolio is 1.93%.
The City would use the Illinois Portfolio similarly to Illinois Funds, which is another short-term cash investment tool. For example, same day wires requests and ACH which settles the next business day requests are allowed with a deadline of 1:00 PM request versus an 11:00 AM request deadline for Illinois Funds. No fee is charged for these transactions.
BUDGET IMPACT: The City will continue to earn competitive interest on the funds invested in this investment trust.

The right, title and interest of the Trustees in and to the Fund Property shall vest automatically in all persons who may hereafter become Trustees upon their due election and qualification without any further act.

Such deposits are to be subject to withdrawal in such manner as the Trustees may determine, and the Trustees shall have no responsibility for any loss which may occur by reason of the failure of the bank, trust company or other banking institution with which the moneys, investments, or securities have been deposited. Each such bank, trust company or other banking institution shall comply, with respect to such deposit, with all applicable requirements of all applicable Laws including, but not limited to, the laws governing each participating Public Agency.

Section 2.13. Concerning the Fund and Certain Affiliates.
(a)
(b)
The Fund may enter into transactions with any Affiliate of the Fund or of the Adviser, the Administrator, the Custodian or any Affiliate of any Trustee, officer, director, employee or agent of the Fund or of the Adviser, the Administrator, or the Custodian if (i) each such transaction (or type of transaction) has, after disclosure of such affiliation, been approved or ratified by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Trustees, including a majority of the Trustees who are not Affiliates of any Person (other than the Fund) who is a party to the transaction or transactions with the Fund and (ii) such transaction (or type of transaction) is, in the opinion of the Trustees, on terms fair and reasonable to the Fund and the Participants and at least as favorable to them as similar arrangements for comparable transactions (of which the Trustees have knowledge) with organizations unaffiliated with the Fund or with the Person who is a party to the transaction or transactions with the Fund.
Except as otherwise provided in this Declaration of Trust or in the Laws of the State of Illinois, in the absence of fraud, a contract, act or other transaction, between the Fund and any other Person, or in which the Fund is interested, is valid and no Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Fund has any liability as a result of entering into any such contract, act or transaction even though (i) one or more of the Trustees, officers, employees or agents of such other Person, or (ii) one or more of the Trustees, officers, employees, or agents of the Fund,
individually or jointly with others, is a party or are parties to or directly interested in, or affiliated with, such contract, act or transaction, provided that (i) such interest or affiliation is disclosed to the Trustees and the Trustees authorize such contract, act or other transaction by a vote of a majority of the unaffiliated Trustees, or (ii) such interest or affiliation is disclosed to the Participants, and such contract, act or transaction is approved by a majority of the Participants.
(c)
(d)
(e)
(f)
Any Trustee or officer, employee, or agent of the Fund may, in his personal capacity, or in a capacity as trustee, officer, director, stockholder, partner, member, agent, adviser or employee of any Person, have business interests and engage in business activities in addition to those relating to the Fund, which interests and activities may be similar to those of the Fund and include the acquisition, syndication, holding, management, operation or disposition of securities, investments and funds, for his own account or for the account of such Person. Each Trustee, officer, employee and agent of the Fund shall be free of any obligation to present to the Fund any investment opportunity which comes to him in any capacity other than solely as Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Fund, even if such opportunity is of a character which, if presented to the Fund, could be taken by the Fund.
Subject to the provisions of Article III hereof, any Trustee or officer, employee or agent of the Fund may be interested as trustee, officer, director, stockholder, partner, member, agent, adviser or employee of, or otherwise have a direct or indirect interest in, any Person who may be engaged to render advice or services to the Fund, and may receive compensation from such Person as well as compensation as Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Fund or otherwise hereunder. None of the activities and interests referred to in this paragraph (d) shall be deemed to conflict with his duties and powers as Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Fund.
To the extent that any other provision of this Declaration of Trust conflicts with, or is otherwise contrary to the provisions of, this Section 2.13, the provisions of this Section 2.13 shall be deemed controlling.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.14, the Trustees shall not have the power to engage in any transaction with any Affiliate that would be inconsistent with the Laws of the State of Illinois concerning public ethics and conflicts of interest, and the By-Laws of the Fund may contain provisions more restrictive than those set forth in this Section 2.13.
Section 2.14. Investment Program. The Trustees shall use their best efforts to obtain through the Adviser or other qualified persons a continuing and suitable investment program, consistent with the investment policies and objectives of the Fund set forth in Article IV of this Declaration of Trust, and the Trustees shall be responsible for reviewing and approving or rejecting the investment program presented by the Adviser or such other Persons. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6 and Section 3.1 hereof, the Trustees may delegate functions arising under this Section 2.14 to one or more of their number or to the Adviser. The Trustees also shall have full and complete power to contract for or to otherwise obtain from or through the Adviser, the Administrator or other qualified Persons for the benefit of, and to make available to, the Participants of the Fund from time to time, additional investment and non-investment programs and services distinct from the Fund’s program of investments measured by Shares, but consistent with the investment goals and objectives of the Fund and the general purposes of this Declaration
of Trust. The Trustees shall have the power to review and approve or reject, in their sole discretion, such additional investment and non-investment programs as may be presented to the Trustees by the Adviser, the Administrator or any other qualified Persons.
Section 2.15. Power to Contract, Appoint, Retain and Employ. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6 and Section 3.1 hereof with respect to delegation of authority by the Trustees, the Trustees shall have full and complete power to appoint, employ, retain, or contract with any Person of suitable qualifications and high repute (including one or more of themselves and any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity of which one or more of them may be an Affiliate, subject to the applicable requirements of Section 2.13 hereof) as the Trustees may deem necessary, or desirable for the transaction of the affairs of the Fund, or the transaction of the affairs of any additional investment programs or services or non-investment programs or services of any nature affiliated with the Fund or otherwise contracted for or by the Fund, including any Person or Persons who, under the supervision of the Trustees, may, among other things: (i) serve as the Fund’s investment adviser and consultant in connection with policy decisions made by the Trustees; (ii) serve as the Fund’s administrator; (iii) serve as the Fund’s distributor; (iv) furnish reports to the Trustees and provide research, economic and statistical data in connection with the Fund’s investments; (v) act as consultants, accountants, technical advisers, attorneys, brokers, underwriters, corporate fiduciaries, escrow agents, depositaries, custodians or agents for collection, insurers or insurance agents, registrars for Shares or in any other capacity deemed by the Trustees to be necessary or desirable; (vi) investigate, select and, on behalf of the Fund, conduct relations with Persons acting in such capacities and pay appropriate fees to, and enter into appropriate contracts with, or employ, or retain services performed or to be performed by, any of them in connection with the investments acquired, sold, or otherwise disposed of, or committed, negotiated, or contemplated to be acquired, sold or otherwise disposed of; (vii) substitute any other Person for any such Person; (viii) act as attorney-in-fact or agent in the purchase or sale or other disposition of investments, and in the handling, prosecuting or other enforcement of any lien or security securing investments; (ix) assist in the performance of such ministerial functions necessary in the management of the Fund as may be agreed upon with the Trustees; and (x) any of the foregoing as may be agreed upon by the Trustees with regard to any additional investment and non-investment programs and services for the benefit of the Participants.
Section 2.16. Insurance. The Trustees shall have full and complete power to purchase and pay for, entirely out of Fund Property, insurance policies insuring the Fund and the Trustees, officers, employees and agents, of the Fund individually against all claims and liabilities of every nature arising by reason of holding or having held any such office or position, or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted by the Fund or any such Person as Trustee, officer, employee and agent, including any action taken or omitted that may be determined to constitute negligence, whether or not the Fund would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability.
Section 2.17. Indemnification. In addition to the mandatory indemnification provided for in Section 5.3 hereof, the Trustees shall have full and complete power, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, to indemnify or enter into agreements with respect to indemnification with any Person with whom the Fund has dealings, including, without limitation, the Adviser, the
Administrator and the Custodian, to such extent as the Trustees shall determine, subject to such limitations as may arise under law.
Section 2.18. Remedies. Notwithstanding any provision in this Declaration of Trust, when the Trustees deem that there is a significant risk that an obligor to the Fund may default or is in default under the terms of any obligation to the Fund, the Trustees shall have full and complete power to pursue any remedies permitted by Law which, in their sole judgment, are in the interests of the Fund, and the Trustees shall have full and complete power to enter into any investment, commitment or obligation of the Fund resulting from the pursuit of such remedies as are necessary or desirable to dispose of property acquired in the pursuit of such remedies.
Section 2.19. Information Statement. The Trustees shall have full and complete power to authorize the distribution of an Information Statement regarding the Fund which may be prepared by advisers to the Fund and to authorize the amendment of or supplement of the same from time to time.
Section 2.20. Further Powers. The Trustees shall have full and complete power to take all such actions, do all such matters and things and execute all such instruments as they deem necessary, proper or desirable in order to carry out, promote or advance the interests and purposes of the Fund although such actions, matters or things are not herein specifically mentioned. Any determination as to what is in the best interests of the Fund made by the Trustees in good faith shall be conclusive. In construing the provisions of this Declaration of Trust, the presumption shall be in favor of a grant of power to the Trustees. The Trustees shall not be required to obtain any court order to deal with the Fund Property.
ARTICLE III. THE INVESTMENT ADVISER ,THE ADMINISTRATOR, THE DISTRIBUTOR AND THE INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT

The Trustees are responsible for the general investment policy and program of the Fund and for the general supervision and administration of the business and affairs of the Fund conducted by the officers, agents, employees, investment advisers, administrators, distributors, or independent contractors of the Fund. However, the Trustees are not required personally to conduct all of the routine business of the Fund and, consistent with their ultimate responsibility as stated herein, the Trustees may appoint, employ or contract with the Adviser as an investment adviser to the Fund, the Administrator as an administrator for the Fund, and the Distributor as the distribution agent for the Fund and may grant or delegate such authority to the Adviser, the Administrator (pursuant to the terms of Section 2.15 hereof), the Distributor or to any other Person the services of whom are obtained by the Adviser, the Administrator or the Distributor, as the Trustees may, in their sole discretion, deem necessary or desirable, for the efficient management of the Fund, without regard to whether such authority is normally granted or delegated by trustees or other fiduciaries. The same Person may serve simultaneously as the Administrator, as the Adviser and as the Distributor, but no Person serving as the Administrator, the Adviser or the Distributor may serve as the Custodian.
Section 3.2. Duties of the Adviser. The duties of the Adviser shall be those set forth in the Investment Advisory Agreement to be entered into between the Fund and the Person or
Persons designated pursuant to Section 3.1 as the Adviser. Such duties may be modified by the Trustees, from time to time, by the amendment of the Investment Advisory Agreement. Subject to Article IV hereof, the Trustees may authorize the Adviser to effect purchases, sales or exchanges of Fund Property on behalf of the Trustees or may authorize any officer, employee, agent or Trustee to effect such purchases, sales, or exchanges pursuant to recommendations of the Adviser, all without further action by the Trustees. Any and all of such purchases, sales, and exchanges shall be deemed to be authorized by all the Trustees. The Investment Advisory Agreement may authorize the Adviser to employ other persons to assist it in the performance of its duties.
Section 3.3. Duties of the Administrator. The duties of the Administrator shall be those set forth in the Administration Agreement to be entered into between the Fund and the Person or Persons designated pursuant to Section 3.1 as the Administrator.

Section 3.4. Duties of the Distributor. The duties of the Distributor shall be those set forth in the Distribution Agreement to be entered into between the Fund and the Person or Persons designated pursuant to 3.1 as the Distributor.

Section 3.6. Appointment and Duties of the Independent Accountant. The Trustees shall appoint an independent accountant for each fiscal year of the Fund and its various Series.

ARTICLE IV. INVESTMENTS
Section 4.1. Statement of Investment Policy and Objective. Subject to the prohibitions and restrictions contained in Section 4.2 hereof, the general investment policy and objective of the Trust and each Series shall be to invest the Fund in Permitted Investments as set forth below and any other applicable provisions of Law as may be set forth more fully in the Fund’s Information Statement, as the same may be amended from time to time.
Section 4.2. Permitted Investments. In accordance with Article II, Permitted Investments shall constitute the following:
(a) bonds, notes, certificates of indebtedness, treasury bills or other securities now, or hereafter issued, which are guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America as to principal and interest;
(b) bonds, notes, debentures or other similar obligations of the United States of America or its agencies;
(c) interest-bearing savings accounts, interest-bearing certificates of deposit or interest-bearing time deposits or any other investments constituting direct obligations of any bank as defined by the Illinois Banking Act (205 ILCS 511, et. seq.); provided, however, that such bank is federally insured;
(d) short-term obligations of corporations organized in the United States of America with assets exceeding $500,000,000, provided that such obligations are rated at the time of purchase within one of the three highest classifications established by at least two standard rating services, such obligations mature not later than 180 days from the date of purchase, and such purchases do not exceed 10% of the applicable corporation’s outstanding obligations;
(e) short-term discount obligations of the Federal National Mortgage Association or shares or other forms of securities legally issuable by savings and loan associations incorporated under the Laws of Illinois or any other state or under the Laws of the United States of America, provided that the shares or investment certificates of such savings and loan associations are federally insured, any such securities are purchased at the offering or market price thereof at the time of such purchase, and all such securities so purchased shall mature or be redeemable on a date or dates prior to the time when, in the judgment of the Trustees, the funds so invested will be required for the payment of funds to Participants upon the withdrawal of moneys from the Fund;
(f) money market mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, provided that the portfolio of any such money market mutual fund is limited to obligations described in paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 4.2 and to agreements to repurchase such obligations; and
(g) any other investment instruments now permitted by the provisions of Section 2 of the Public Funds Investment Act or any other applicable statutes or hereafter permitted by reason of the amendment of Section 2 of the Public Funds Investment Act or the adoption of any other statute applicable to the investment of Public Agency funds.
Section 4.3. Restrictions Fundamental to the Fund. Notwithstanding anything in this Declaration of Trust which may be deemed to authorize the contrary, the Fund:
(a)
(b)
May not make any investment other than investments authorized by Section 4.2 or any other applicable provisions of Law, as the same may be amended from time to time, and in the case of investments made jointly with funds of other Public Agencies, may not make any investment other than investments authorized by Law for the investment of each such Public Agency;
May not purchase any Permitted Investment which has a maturity date more than 397 days from the date of the Fund’s purchase thereof, unless subject, at the time of such purchase by the Fund, to an irrevocable agreement on the part of a Responsible Person to purchase such Permitted Investment from the Fund within 397 days; provided, however, that the Trustees may, in their discretion, by an action set forth by resolution of the Trustees and included
in the Information Statement, waive such 397 day limitation with respect to any one or more Series of Shares. For the purposes of this provision:
(i) A variable rate security which has its rate of interest readjusted no less frequently than every 397 days shall be deemed to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the next readjustment of the interest rate or earlier maturity.
(ii) A floating rate security shall be deemed to have a remaining maturity of one day.
(c) May not purchase any Permitted Investment if the effect of such purchase by the
Fund would be to make the average dollar weighted maturity of the Fund’s investment portfolio greater than the period designated by the Trustees with respect to the Series to which such purchase of such Permitted Investment relates; provided, however, that in making such determination any Permitted Investment which is subject to an irrevocable agreement of the nature referred to in the preceding clause (b) shall be deemed to mature on the day on which the Fund is obligated to sell such Permitted Investment back to a Responsible Person or the day on which the Fund may exercise its rights under such agreement to require the purchase of such Permitted Investment by a Responsible Person;
(d)
(i)
(ii)
(e)
May not borrow money or incur indebtedness, whether or not the proceeds thereof are intended to be used to purchase Permitted Investments, except
as a temporary measure to facilitate withdrawal requests which might otherwise require unscheduled dispositions of portfolio investments, including, without limitation, to facilitate withdrawal requests made by Participants and received by the Custodian after the Fund has already sold, or entered sell orders for, portfolio investments to cover the withdrawal requests previously made on that date, and only to the extent permitted by Law; or
as a temporary measure (not to exceed one business day) from the Custodian to provide for the purchase of portfolio securities pending receipt by the Custodian of collected funds from a Participant who has notified the Fund before such purchase that it has wire transferred funds (or otherwise transferred immediately available funds) to the Fund in an amount sufficient to pay the purchase price of such securities, and only as and to the extent permitted by Law.
provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph (d) shall permit, or be construed as permitting, the pledge of the assets of the Fund to secure any such borrowing except for the pledge of amounts, limited to the amount of such borrowing, held in the specific Participant’s account with the Fund for whom such borrowing was incurred;
May not make loans, provided that the Fund may make Permitted Investments; and
(f) May not hold or provide for the custody of any Fund Property in a manner not authorized by Law or by any institution or Person not authorized by Law.
For the purposes of this Section 4.3, the phrase “Responsible Person” shall mean a Person listed on the United States Treasury Department List of Primary Government Securities Dealers or any equivalent successor to such list or a bank organized and existing under the Laws of the United States of America or any state thereof having assets in excess of $500,000,000.
Section 4.4. Amendment of Restrictions. The restrictions set forth in Section 4.2 hereof are fundamental to the operation and activities of the Fund and may not be changed without the affirmative vote of a majority of the Participants entitled to vote, except that such restrictions may be changed by the Trustees so as to make them more restrictive when necessary to conform the investment program and activities of the Fund to the Laws of the State of Illinois and the United States of America as they may from time to time be amended.
ARTICLE V. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
Section 5.1. Liability to Third Persons. No Participant shall be subject to any personal liability whatsoever, in tort, contract or otherwise, to any other Person or Persons in connection with Fund Property or the affairs of the Fund; and no Trustee, officer, or employee of the Fund shall be subject to any personal liability whatsoever in tort, contract or otherwise, to any other Person or Persons in connection with Fund Property or the affairs of the Fund, and all such other Persons shall look solely to the Fund Property for satisfaction of claims of any nature arising in connection with the affairs of the Fund. If any Participant, Trustee, officer or employee, as such, of the Fund is made a party to any suit or proceedings to assert or enforce any such liability, he shall not on account thereof be held to any personal liability.
Section 5.2. Liability to the Fund or to the Participants. No Trustee, officer or employee of the Fund shall be liable to the Fund or to any Participant for any action or failure to act (including, without limitation, the failure to compel in any way any former or acting Trustee to redress any breach of trust) except for his own bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his duties provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 5.2 shall not limit the liability of any Person with respect to breaches by it of a contract between it and the Fund.
Section 5.3. Indemnification.
(a) The Fund shall indemnify and hold each Participant harmless from and against all claims and liabilities, whether they proceed to judgment or are settled or otherwise brought to a conclusion, to which such Participant may become subject solely by reason of its being or having been a Participant, and shall reimburse such Participant for all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with any such claim or liability. The rights accruing to a Participant under this Section 5.3 shall not exclude any other right to which such Participant may be lawfully entitled, nor shall anything herein contained restrict the right of the Fund to indemnify or reimburse a Participant in any appropriate situation even though not specifically provided herein.
(b) The Fund shall indemnify each of its Trustees and officers, and employees and other Persons designated by the Board of Trustees to receive such indemnification, against all liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or as fines and penalties, and counsel fees) reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding by the Fund or any other Person, whether civil or criminal, in which he may be involved or with which he may be threatened, while in office or thereafter, by reason of his being or having been such a Trustee, officer, employee or other designated Person, except as to any matter as to which he shall have been adjudicated to have acted in bad faith or with willful misfeasance or reckless disregard of his duties or gross negligence; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 5.3 shall not be construed to permit the indemnification of any Person with respect to breaches by it of a contract between it and the Fund; and further provided, however, that as to any matter disposed of by a compromise payment by such Trustee, officer, employee or other designated Person, pursuant to a consent decree or otherwise, no indemnification either for said payment or for any other expenses shall be provided unless the Fund shall have received a written opinion from independent counsel approved by the Trustees to the effect that if the foregoing matters had been adjudicated, the defenses that could have been presented on behalf of such Trustee, officer, employee or other designated Person were meritorious. The rights accruing to any Trustee, officer, employee or other designated Person under the provisions of this paragraph (b) of this Section 5.3 shall not exclude any other right to which he may be lawfully entitled; provided, however, that no Trustee, officer, employee or other designated Person may satisfy any right of indemnity or reimbursement granted herein or to which he may be otherwise entitled except out of the Fund Property, and no Participant shall be personally liable to any Person with respect to any claim for indemnity or reimbursement or otherwise. The Trustees may make advance payments in connection with indemnification under this paragraph (b) of this Section 5.3, provided that the indemnified Trustee, officer, employee or other designated Person shall have given a written undertaking to reimburse the Fund in the event that it is subsequently determined that he is not entitled to such indemnification.
(c) Any action taken by, or conduct on the part of, a Trustee, an officer, or an employee of the Fund or other Person designated by the Trustees in conformity with, or in good faith reliance upon, the provisions of Section 2.13 or Section 5.7 hereof shall not, for the purpose of this Declaration of Trust (including, without limitation, Sections 5.1 and 5.2 and this Section 5.3) constitute bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his duties.
Section 5.4. Surety Bonds. No Trustee shall, as such, be obligated to give any bond or surety or other security for the performance of any of his duties.
Section 5.5. Apparent Authority. No purchaser, seller, transfer agent or other Person dealing with the Trustees or any officer, employee or agent of the Fund shall be bound to make any inquiry concerning the validity of any transaction purporting to be made by the Trustee or by such officer, employee or agent or make inquiry concerning or be liable for the application of money or property paid, transferred or delivered to or on the order of the Trustees or of such officer, employee or agent.
Section 5.6. Recitals. Any written instrument creating an obligation of the Fund shall be conclusively taken to have been executed by a Trustee or an officer, employee or agent of the
Fund only in his capacity as a Trustee under this Declaration of Trust or in his capacity as an officer, employee or agent of the Fund. Any written instrument creating an obligation of the Fund shall refer to this Declaration of Trust and contain a recital to the effect that the obligations thereunder are not personally binding upon, nor shall resort be had to the property of, any of the Trustees, Participants, officers, employees or agents of the Fund, and that only the Fund Property or a specific portion thereof shall be bound, and such written instrument may contain any further similar recital which may be deemed appropriate; provided, however, that the omission of any recital pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall not operate to impose personal liability on any of the Trustees, Participants, officers, employees or agents of the Fund.
Section 5.7. Reliance on Experts, Etc. Each Trustee and each officer of the Fund shall, in the performance of his duties, be fully and completely justified and protected with regard to any act or any failure to act resulting from reliance in good faith upon the books of account or other records of the Fund, upon an opinion of counsel or upon reports made to the Fund by any of its officers or employees or by the Adviser, the Administrator, the Custodian, accountants, appraisers or other experts or consultants selected with reasonable care by the officers of the Fund.
ARTICLE VI. CHARACTERISTICS OF SHARES
Section 6.1. Beneficial Interest. The beneficial interest of the Participants hereunder in the Fund Property and the earnings thereon shall be divided into Shares, which shall be used as units to measure the proportionate allocation to the respective Participants of the beneficial interest hereunder. The number of Shares that may be used to measure and represent the proportionate allocation of beneficial interest among the Participants is unlimited.
Section 6.2. Rights of Participants. The beneficial interest hereunder measured by the Shares shall not entitle a Participant to which Shares relate to preference, preemptive, appraisal, conversion, or exchange rights of any kind with respect to the Fund or the Fund Property, except as the Trustees may determine with respect to any Class or Series. Title to the Fund Property of every description and the right to conduct any affairs herein described are vested in the Trustees on behalf, and for the beneficial interest, of the Participants, and the Participants shall have no interest therein other than the beneficial interest conferred hereby and measured by their Shares, and they shall have no right to call for any partition or division of any property, profits, rights or interests of the Fund nor can they be called upon to share or assume any losses of the Fund or suffer an assessment of any kind by virtue of the allocation of Shares to them, except as provided in Article IX hereof.
Section 6.3. Series or Class Designation. The Trustees may, from time to time, authorize the division of Shares into separate Series and the division of any Series into two or more separate Classes of Shares, as they deem necessary and desirable. The different Series or Classes shall be established and designated, and the variations in the relative rights and preferences as between the different Series or Classes, such as the purchase price, right of redemption and the price, terms and manner of redemption, special and relative rights as to distributions on liquidation, conversion rights, and conditions under which the several series or classes shall have separate voting rights and separate investment restrictions, shall be fixed and determined, by the Trustees, without the requirement of Participant approval.
Section 6.4. Allocation of Shares.
(a)
(b)
(c)
The Trustees, in their discretion, may, from time to time, without vote of the Participants, allocate Shares, in addition to the then allocated Shares, to such party or parties, for such amount and such type of consideration (including, without limitation, income from the investment of Fund Property), at such time or times (including, without limitation, each business day in accordance with the maintenance of a constant net asset value per Share as permitted by Section 9.1 hereof), and on such terms as the Trustees may deem best. In connection with any allocation of Shares, the Trustees may allocate fractional Shares. The Trustees may from time to time adjust the total number of Shares allocated without thereby changing the proportionate beneficial interests in the Fund. Reductions or increases in the number of allocated Shares may be made in order to maintain a constant net asset value per Share as permitted by Section 9.1 hereof. Shares shall be allocated and redeemed as whole Shares and/or one hundredths (1/100ths) of a Share or multiples thereof.
Shares may be allocated only to a Public Agency that has become a Participant of the Fund in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof and who is acting with respect to the funds of a Public Agency. Each Participant may divide its Shares administratively among more than one account within the Fund or Series or Class for such Participant’s convenience in accordance with such procedures as the Trustees may establish.
The minimum amount of funds which may be placed in the Fund by a Participant at any one time shall be as determined by the Trustees from time to time. Unless otherwise determined by the Trustees pursuant to this paragraph (c) of this Section 6.4, the minimum amount of funds which may be placed in the Fund by a Participant at any one time shall be One Dollar ($1.00).
Section 6.5. Evidence of Share Allocation. Evidence of Share allocation shall be reflected in the Share Register maintained by or on behalf of the Fund pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, and the Fund shall not be required to issue certificates as evidence of Share allocation.
Section 6.6. Redemption to Maintain Constant Net Asset Value. If so determined by the Trustees, the Shares of one or more Series of the Fund shall be subject to redemption pursuant to the procedure for reduction of outstanding Shares as permitted by Section 9.1 hereof in order to maintain the constant net asset value per Share.
Section 6.7. Redemptions. Payments by the Fund to Participants, and the reduction of Shares resulting therefrom, are referred to in this Declaration of Trust as “redemptions.” Any and all allocated Shares may be redeemed at the option of the Participant whose beneficial interest hereunder is measured by such Shares, upon and subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Declaration of Trust. The Fund shall, upon application of any Participant, promptly redeem from such Participant allocated Shares for an amount per Share equivalent to the proportionate interest measured by each Share in the net assets of the Fund at the time of the redemption. The procedures for effecting redemption shall be as adopted by the Trustees and as set forth in the Information Statement of the Fund, as the same may be amended from time to time; provided, however, that such procedures shall not be structured so as to substantially and materially restrict the ability of the Participants to withdraw funds from the Fund by the redemption of Shares;
provided further however, that the Trustees shall have the power to provide for redemption procedures relating to any particular Series or Class which are consistent with the purpose and intent of this Declaration of Trust and consistent with the Information Statement . Such procedures may, among other things, establish periods during which funds relating to Shares of such Series or Class may either not be withdrawn from the Fund or be withdrawn upon payment of a redemption penalty.
Section 6.8. Suspension of Redemption; Postponement of Payment. Each Participant, by its adoption of this Declaration of Trust, agrees that the Trustees may, without the necessity of a formal meeting of the Trustees, temporarily suspend the right of redemption or postpone the date of payment for redeemed Shares for all Series or Classes or any one or more Series or Classes for the whole or any part of any period (i) during which there shall have occurred any state of war, national emergency, banking moratorium or suspension of payments by banks in the State of Illinois or any general suspension of trading or limitation of prices on the New York or American Stock Exchange (other than customary weekend and holiday closings) or (ii) during which any financial emergency situation exists as a result of which disposal by the Fund of Fund Property is not reasonably practicable because of the substantial losses which might be incurred or it is not reasonably practicable for the Fund fairly to determine the value of its net assets. Such suspension or postponement shall not alter or affect a Participant’s beneficial interest hereunder as measured by its Shares or the accrued interest and earnings thereon. Such suspension or payment shall take effect at such time as the Trustees shall specify but not later than the close of business on the business day next following the declaration of suspension, and thereafter there shall be no right of redemption or payment until the Trustees shall declare the suspension or postponement at an end, except that the suspension or postponement shall terminate in any event on the first day on which the period specified in clause (i) or (ii) above shall have expired (as to which, the determination of the Trustees shall be conclusive). In the case of a suspension of the right of redemption or a postponement of payment for redeemed Shares, a Participant may either (i) withdraw its request for redemption or (ii) receive payment based on the net asset value existing after the termination of the suspension.
Section 6.9. Minimum Redemption. There shall be no minimum number of Shares which may be redeemed at any one time at the option of a Participant, unless authorized by a resolution of the Board of Trustees and specified in the Information Statement; provided, however, that no request by a Participant for the redemption of less than one whole Share need be honored.
Section 6.10. Defective Redemption Requests. In the event that a Participant shall submit a request for the redemption of a greater number of Shares than are then allocated to such Participant, such request shall not be honored and each Participant, by its adoption of this Declaration of Trust, agrees that the Trustees shall have full and complete power to redeem an amount of the Shares allocated to such Participant, at a redemption price determined in accordance with Section 6.7 hereof, sufficient to reimburse the Fund for any fees, expenses, costs or penalties actually incurred by the Fund as a result of such defective redemption request.
ARTICLE VII. RECORD OF SHARES
Section 7.1. Share Register. The Share Register shall be kept by or on behalf of the Trustees, under the direction of the Trustees, and shall contain for each series (i) the names and addresses of the Participants, (ii) the number of Shares representing their respective beneficial interests hereunder and (iii) a record of all allocations and redemptions thereof. Such Share Register shall be conclusive as to the identity of the Participants to which the Shares are allocated. Only Participants whose allocation of Shares is recorded on such Share Register shall be entitled to receive distributions with respect to Shares or otherwise to exercise or enjoy the rights and benefits related to the beneficial interest hereunder represented by the Shares. No Participant shall be entitled to receive any distribution, nor to have notices given to it as herein provided, until it has given its appropriate address to such officer or agent of the Fund as shall keep the Share Register for entry thereon.
Section 7.2. Registrar. The Trustees shall have full and complete power to employee a registrar. Unless otherwise determined by the Trustees, the Share Register shall be kept by the Administrator which shall serve as the registrar for the Fund. The registrar shall record the original allocations of Shares in the Share Register. Such registrar shall perform the duties usually performed by registrars of certificates and shares of stock in a corporation, except as such duties may be modified by the Trustees.
Section 7.3. Owner of Record. No Person becoming entitled to any Shares in consequence of the merger, reorganization, consolidation, bankruptcy or insolvency of any Participant or otherwise, by operation of Law, shall be recorded as the Participant to which such Shares are allocated and shall only be entitled to the redemption value of such Shares. Until the Person becoming entitled to such redemption value shall apply for the payment thereof and present any proof of such entitlement as the Trustees may in their sole discretion deem appropriate, the Participant of record to which such Shares are allocated shall be deemed to be the Participant to which such Shares are allocated for all purposes hereof, and neither the Trustees nor the registrar nor any officer or agent of the Fund shall be affected by any notice of such merger, reorganization, consolidation, bankruptcy, insolvency or other event.
Section 7.4. No Transfers of Shares. The beneficial interests measured by the Shares shall not be transferable, in whole or in part, other than to the Fund itself for purposes of redemption.
Section 7.5. Limitation of Fiduciary Responsibility. The Trustees shall not, nor shall the Participants or any officer, registrar or other agent of the Fund, be bound to see to the execution of any trust, express, implied or constructive, or of any charge, pledge or equity to which any of the Shares or any interest therein are subject, or to ascertain or inquire whether any redemption of such Shares by any Participant or its representatives is authorized by such trust, charge, pledge or equity, or to recognize any Person as having any interest therein except the Participant recorded as the Participant to which such Shares are allocated. The receipt of the Participant in whose name any Share is recorded or of the duly authorized agent of such Participant shall be a sufficient discharge for all moneys payable or deliverable in respect of such Shares and from all liability to see to the proper application thereof.
Section 7.6. Notices. Any and all notices to which Participants hereunder may be entitled and any and all communications shall be deemed duly served or given if mailed, postage prepaid, addressed to Participants of records at their last known post office addresses as recorded on the Share Register provided for in Section 7.1 hereof.
ARTICLE VIII. TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS
Section 8.1. Number and Qualification. The governing body of the Fund shall be the Board of Trustees, the membership of which shall be determined as hereinafter provided. The number of Trustees shall be fixed from time to time by resolution of a majority of the voting Trustees then in office; provided, however, that the number of voting Trustees shall in no event be less than two or more than fifteen. Any vacancy created by an increase in the number of Trustees may be filled by the appointment of an individual having the qualifications described in this Section 8.1 made by a resolution of a majority of the Trustees then in office. Any such appointment shall not become effective, however, until the individual named in the resolution of appointment shall have (i) accepted in writing such appointment, (ii) agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Declaration of Trust, and (iii) if he is affiliated with a Public Agency, presented evidence in writing of the granting of an authorization by the Public Agency for him to serve as a Trustee. No reduction in the number of Trustees shall have the effect of removing any Trustee from office prior to the expiration of his term. Whenever a vacancy in the number of Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled as provided in Section 8.5 hereof, the Trustees or Trustee continuing in office, regardless of their number, shall have all the power granted to the Trustees and shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the Trustees by this Declaration of Trust. A Trustee shall be an individual who is not under legal disability and who is either (i) a member of the corporate authorities of a Participant, (ii) a Treasurer, or other financial officer of a Participant, or (iii) any other duly authorized individual affiliated with a Participant. There shall be no more than one Trustee affiliated with any one Public Agency; provided, however, that no Trustee shall be disqualified from serving out an unexpired term by reason of such prohibition. The Trustees, in their capacity as Trustees, shall not be required to devote their entire time to the business and affairs of the Fund.
Section 8.2. Organizational Trustees. By the initial execution of this Declaration of Trust, the Initial Participants appointed the following two individuals to serve as Trustees until the first annual meeting or vote of the Participants and until their successors had been elected and qualified.

Section 8.3. Term and Election. Each Trustee named herein, or elected or appointed as provided in Section 8.1 or 8.3 hereof, shall (except in the event of resignations or removals or vacancies pursuant to Section 8.4 or 8.5 hereof) hold office until his successor has been elected at such meeting or pursuant to such vote and has qualified to serve as Trustee. The Trustees shall be divided into three classes, as equal in number as practicable, so arranged that the term of one class shall expire at the respective annual meetings or votes of Participants held following the conclusion of each fiscal year of the Fund. At all annual meetings or votes a class of Trustees shall be elected to serve for a term of three (3) years and until their successors shall be elected and qualify. Any addition made to the number of Trustees, except at a meeting or pursuant to a vote of the Participants, shall be made only for a term expiring at the next annual meeting or vote of the Participants or until a successor shall be elected and qualify. At the annual meeting or vote of the Participants next following any addition to the number of Trustees, or, in the case of any addition to the number of Trustees made at an annual meeting or pursuant to such vote of the Participants, at such meeting or pursuant to such vote, the terms of the additional Trustees shall be fixed so that, as nearly as shall be practicable, an equal number of terms shall expire at each annual meeting or vote of the Participants. Trustees may succeed themselves in office. Election of Trustees at an annual meeting or in an annual vote shall be by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the Participants entitled to vote present in person or by proxy at such meeting or voting in such annual vote. The election of any Trustee (other than an individual who was serving as a Trustee immediately prior to such election) pursuant to this Section 9.3 shall not become effective unless and until such person shall have (i) in writing accepted his election, (ii) agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Declaration of Trust, and (iii) if he is affiliated with a Public Agency, presented evidence in writing of the granting of an authorization by the Public Agency for him to serve as a Trustee.
Section 8.4. Resignation and Removal. Any Trustee may resign (without need for prior or subsequent accounting) by an instrument in writing signed by him and delivered to the chairperson, the vice chairperson or the secretary and such resignation shall be effective upon such delivery, or at a later date according to the terms of the notice. Any of the Trustees may be removed (provided that the aggregate number of Trustees after such removal shall not be less than the minimum number required by Section 8.1 hereof) with cause, by the action of two-thirds of the remaining Trustees. Upon the resignation or removal of a Trustee, or his otherwise ceasing to be a Trustee, he shall execute and deliver such documents as the remaining Trustees shall require for the purpose of conveying to the Fund or the remaining Trustees shall require for the purpose of conveying to the Fund or the remaining Trustees any Fund Property held in the name of the resigning or removed Trustee. Upon the incapacity or death of any Trustee, his legal representative shall execute and deliver on his behalf such documents as the remaining Trustees shall require as provided in the preceding sentence.
Section 8.5. Vacancies.
(a) The term of office of a Trustee shall terminate and a vacancy shall occur in the event of the death, resignation, bankruptcy, adjudicated incompetence or other incapacity to exercise the duties of the office, or removal of a Trustee. In addition, a Person shall no longer be a Trustee and a vacancy shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) a Trustee who is affiliated with a Public Agency ceases to be affiliated with the Public Agency, or (ii) the Public Agency with which the Trustee is affiliated ceases to be a Participant. If a Trustee who is affiliated with a
Public Agency shall no longer be affiliated with the Public Agency, or the Public Agency with which the Trustee is affiliated shall no longer be a Participant, such Person shall, upon the expiration of a sixty (60) day period following the occurrence of such event, no longer be a Trustee and a vacancy will be deemed to have occurred, unless such person shall have become affiliated with another Public Agency which is a Participant, within such sixty (60) day period and shall have presented evidence in writing of the granting of an authorization by the Public Agency with which he is then affiliated for him to serve as a Trustee.
(b)
(c)
No such vacancy shall operate to annul this Declaration of Trust or to revoke any existing agency created pursuant to the terms of this Declaration of Trust, and title to any Fund Property held in the name of such Trustee and the other Trustees, or otherwise, shall, in the event of the death, resignation, removal, bankruptcy, adjudicated incompetence or other incapacity to exercise the duties of the office of such Trustee, vest in the continuing or surviving Trustees without necessity of any further act or conveyance. In the case of an existing vacancy (other than by reason of an increase in the number of Trustees) at least a majority of the Participants entitled to vote, acting at any meeting or vote of the Participants called for the purpose, or a majority of the Trustees continuing in office acting by resolution, may fill such vacancy, and any Trustee so elected by the Trustees shall hold office for the remaining balance of the term for which vacancy said Trustee was elected to fill.
Upon the effectiveness of any such appointment as provided in this Section 8.5, the Fund Property shall vest in such new Trustee jointly with the continuing or surviving Trustees without the necessity of any further act or conveyance; provided, however, that no such election or appointment as provided in this Section 8.5 shall become effective unless or until the new Trustee shall have (i) accepted in writing for his appointment, (ii) agreed to be bound by the terms of this Declaration of Trust, and (iii) if he is affiliated with a Public Agency, presented evidence in writing of the granting of an authorization by the Public Agency for him to serve as a Trustee.
Section 8.6. By-Laws. The Trustees may adopt and, from time to time, amend or repeal By-Laws for the conduct of the business of the Fund, and in such By-Laws, among other things, may define the duties of the respective officers, agents, employees and representatives of the Fund.
ARTICLE IX. DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE AND NET INCOME DISTRIBUTIONS TO PARTICIPANTS
Section 9.1. By-Laws to Govern Net Asset Value, Net Income and Distribution Procedures. The Trustees, in their absolute discretion, may prescribe and shall set forth in the By-Laws such basis and time for determining the per Share of Beneficial Interest net asset value of the Shares or net income, or the declaration and payment of distributions, as they may deem necessary or desirable. The methods of determining net asset value of Shares of each Series shall also be set forth in the Information Statement. The duty to make the calculations may be delegated by the Trustees to the Adviser, the Administrator, the Custodian or such other Person as the Trustees by resolution may designate. The Trustees may adopt different methods for the determination of the net asset value of different Series of Shares.
ARTICLE X. CUSTODIAN
Section 10.1. Duties. The Trustees shall employ a bank or trust company organized under the Laws of the United States of America or the State of Illinois having an office in the State of Illinois and having a capital and surplus aggregating at least twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000) as Custodian with authority as its agent, but subject to such restrictions, limitations and other requirements, if any, as may be contained in the By-Laws of the Fund to perform the duties set forth in the Custodian Agreement to be entered into between the Fund and the Custodian.
Section 10.2. Appointment. The Trustees shall have the power to select and appoint the Custodian for the Fund. The Custodian Agreement shall provide that it may be terminated at any time without cause and without the payment of any penalty by the Fund on no less than ninety (90) days’ and no more than one hundred eighty (180) days’ written notice to the Custodian.
Section 10.3. Sub-Custodians. The Trustees may also authorize the Custodian to employ one or more Sub-Custodians from time to time to perform such of the acts and services of the Custodian and upon such terms and conditions, as may be agreed upon between the Custodian and such Sub-Custodians and approved by the Trustees; provided, however, that, in every case, such Sub-Custodian shall be a bank or trust company organized under the Laws of the United States of America or one of the States thereof having capital and surplus aggregating at least twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000).
Section 10.4. Successors. In the event that, at any time, the Custodian shall resign or shall be terminated pursuant to the provisions of the Custodian Agreement, the Trustees shall appoint a successor thereto.
Section 10.5. Additional Custodians. The Trustees may in their discretion employ one or more Custodians in addition to the Custodian referred to in Section 10.1. Such additional Custodians shall be banks or trust companies organized under the Laws of the United States of America or any state thereof and having capital and surplus aggregating at least twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000). Such additional Custodian shall perform such duties (including duties applicable only to designated Series or Classes) as may be set forth in an agreement between the Fund and the additional Custodian.

conclusive evidence of all amendments contained therein and may thereafter be referred to in lieu of the original Declaration of Trust and the various amendments thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.1, no filing or recordation pursuant to the terms of this Section 11.1 shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Declaration of Trust or any amendment hereto.
ARTICLE XII. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF FUND; DURATION OF FUND
Section 12.1. Amendment or Termination.
(a) The provisions of this Declaration of Trust may be amended or altered (except as to the limitations on personal liability of the Participants and Trustees and the prohibition of assessments upon Participants), or the Fund may be terminated, at any meeting of the Participants or pursuant to any vote of the Participants called for that purpose, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Participants entitled to vote, or, if permitted by applicable Law, by an instrument or instruments in writing, without a meeting, signed by a majority of the Trustees and a majority of the Participants; provided, however, that the Trustees may, from time to time, by a two-thirds vote of the Trustees, and after fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to the Participants, amend or alter the provisions of this Declaration of Trust, without the vote or assent of the Participants, to the extent deemed by the Trustees in good faith to be necessary to conform this Declaration to the requirements of applicable Laws or regulations or any interpretation thereof by a court or other governmental agency of competent jurisdiction, but the Trustees shall not be liable for failing so to do, and the Trustees may, from time to time and without notice to nor the vote or assent of the Participants, make changes that do not adversely affect the rights of any Participant, to supply any omissions, or to cure, correct or supplement any ambiguous, defective or inconsistent provision hereof. In addition, a Series may be terminated by vote or written consent of not less than a majority of the Participants of that Series. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no amendment may be made pursuant to this Section 12.1 which would change any rights with respect to any allocated Shares of the Fund by reducing the amount payable thereon upon liquidation of the Fund or which would diminish or eliminate any voting rights of the Participants, except with the vote or written consent of two-thirds of the Participants entitled to vote thereon; and (ii) no amendment may be made which would cause any of the investment restrictions contained in Section 4.2 hereof to be less restrictive without the affirmative vote of a majority of the Participants entitled to vote thereon.
(b)
(i)
(ii)
Upon the termination of the Fund pursuant to this Section 12.1:
The Fund shall carry on no business except for the purpose of winding up its affairs;
The Trustees shall proceed to wind up the affairs of the Fund and all of the powers of the Trustees under this Declaration of Trust shall continue until the affairs of the Fund shall have been wound up, including, without limitation, the power to fulfill or discharge the contracts of the Fund, collect its assets, sell, convey, assign, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the remaining Fund Property to one or more persons at public or private sale for consideration which may consist in whole or in part of cash, securities or other property of any kind, discharge or pay its liabilities, and
do all other acts appropriate to liquidate its affairs; provided, however, that any sale, conveyance, assignment, exchange, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Fund Property shall require approval of the principal terms of the transaction and the nature and amount of the consideration by affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the Participants entitled to vote thereon; and
(iii)
(c)
(d)
After paying or adequately providing for the payment of all liabilities, and upon receipt of such releases, indemnities and refunding agreements as they deem necessary for their protection, the Trustees may distribute the remaining Fund Property of any Series, in cash or in kind or partly in each, among the Participants of such Series and each Class of such Series according to their respective proportionate allocation of Shares, taking into account their respective net asset values and the proper allocation of expenses being borne solely by any Series or any Class of Shares of a Series.
Upon termination of the Fund and distribution to the Participants as herein provided, a majority of the Trustees shall execute and lodge among the records of the Fund an instrument in writing setting forth the fact of such termination, and the Trustees shall thereupon be discharged from all further liabilities and duties hereunder, and the right, title and interest of all Participants shall cease and be canceled and discharged.
A certification in recordable form signed by a majority of the Trustees setting forth an amendment and reciting that it was duly adopted by the Participants or by the Trustees as aforesaid or a copy of the Declaration, as amended, in recordable form, and executed by a majority of the Trustees, shall be conclusive evidence of such amendment.
Section 12.2. Power to Effect Reorganization. If permitted by applicable Law, the Trustees, by vote or written approval of a majority of the Trustees, may select, or direct the organization of, a corporation, association, trust or other Person with which the Fund may merge, or which shall take over the Fund Property and carry on the affairs of the Fund, and after receiving an affirmative vote of not less than a majority of the Participants entitled to vote at any meeting of the Participants, the notice for which includes a statement of such proposed action, the Trustees may effect such merger or may sell, convey and transfer the Fund Property to any such corporation, association, trust or other Person in exchange for cash or shares for securities thereof, or beneficial interest therein with the assumption by such transferee of the liabilities of the Fund; and thereupon the Trustees shall terminate the Fund and deliver such cash, shares, securities or beneficial interest ratably among the Participants of this Fund in redemption of their Shares.
Section 12.3. Duration. The Fund shall continue in existence in perpetuity, subject in all respects to the provisions of this Article XII.
ARTICLE XIII. MISCELLANEOUS
Section 13.1. Governing Law.

Section 13.2. Counterparts. This Declaration of Trust may be executed in several counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts, together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument, which shall be sufficiently evidenced by any such original counterpart.

Any certificate executed by an individual who, according to the records of the Fund or of any official or public body or office in which this Declaration of Trust may be recorded, appears to be a Trustee hereunder or the Secretary or the Treasurer of the Fund, certifying to: (i) the number or identity of Trustees or Participants; (ii) the due authorization of the execution of any instrument or writing; (iii) the form of any vote passed at a meeting of Trustees or Participants; (iv) the fact that the number of Trustees or Participants present at any meeting or executing any written instrument satisfies the requirements of this Declaration of Trust; (v) the form of any By-Law adopted by or the identity of any officers elected by the Trustees; or (vi) the existence of any fact or facts which in any manner relate to the affairs of the Fund, shall be conclusive evidence as to the matters so certified in favor of any Person dealing with the Trustees or any of them or the Fund and the successors of such Person.
Section 13.4. Provisions in Conflict with Law. The provisions of this Declaration of Trust are severable, and if the Trustees shall determine, with the advice of counsel, that any one or more of such provisions (the “Conflicting Provisions”) are in conflict with applicable federal or Illinois Laws, the Conflicting Provisions shall be deemed never to have constituted a part of this Declaration of Trust; provided, however, that such determination by the Trustees shall not affect or impair any of the remaining provisions of this Declaration of Trust or render invalid or improper any action taken or omitted (including, but not limited to, the election of Trustees) prior to such determination.

Investment Objective
To earn the highest income consistent with preserving principal and maintaining liquidity, and to maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value (“NAV”).
Principal Investment Strategies
The Illinois Portfolio (the "Portfolio") invests exclusively in high-quality money market instruments all of which are permitted investments pursuant to the Illinois Public Funds Investment Act, 30 ILCS 235/1 et seq. Investments include but are not limited to:
Obligations of the U.S. Government and its Agencies and Instrumentalities
Repurchase agreements involving obligations of the U.S. Government and its Agencies and Instrumentalities
Certain obligations of financial institutions, including certificates of deposit issued by FDIC-insured banks
Negotiable Certificates of Deposit Commercial Paper Bankers’ Acceptances Obligations of banks Floating-rate and variable-rate obligations Money market mutual funds and other pooled
investment vehicles that observe certain investment restrictions
The Investment Adviser may adjust exposure to interest rate risk, typically seeking to protect against possible rises in interest rates and to preserve yield when interest rates appear likely to fall.
The Portfolio is designed to maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days and a dollar-weighted average life (final maturity, adjusted for demand features but not interest rate adjustments) of no more than 120 days. In addition, it only buys investments that have either a final or effective maturity (or, for repurchase agreements, a remaining term) of 397 days or less.
Main Risks
As with any similar pooled investment, there are several factors that could hurt the Portfolio’s performance, cause you to lose money, or cause the Portfolio’s performance to be less than that of other investments.
Interest rate risk When short-term interest rates fall, the Portfolio’s yield is likely to fall. When interest rates rise, especially if the rise is sharp or unexpected, the Portfolio’s share price could fall.
Credit risk The issuer of a security could fail to pay interest or principal in a timely manner. The credit quality of the Portfolio’s holdings could change rapidly in certain markets, and the default or decline in credit quality of even a single investment could cause the Portfolio’s share price to fall.

Illinois TERM Portfolio
Investment Objective
To provide an investment subject to pre-set redemptions occurring from 60 days to one year from the time of investment, and that will produce the highest earnings consistent with maintaining principal at maturity and meeting the redemption schedule. The Illinois TERM Portfolio seeks to assure the return of principal on the planned maturity date, although principal value may fluctuate prior to that date, and therefore may be greater or less than $1.00 a share. There is a penalty for early withdrawal, and NAV may be more or less than $1.00 a share.
Fees and Expenses
These are the fees you may pay when you buy and hold shares in Illinois TERM.
Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (Fees and expenses shown may be subject to certain fee waivers) Management and administrative fees 0.25%
Additional expenses attributable to a specific TERM portfolio series are borne by that series, while expenses of the Trust are allocated based on the relative net assets of each series when such expenses are incurred. Total operating expenses of a particular Illinois Term series may vary.
Illinois TERM may charge significant penalties for any redemptions prior to the agreed-upon redemption date. As the penalty charged is based on actual costs incurred in effecting the redemption and protecting the interests of other Portfolio Investors, the actual amount of the penalty cannot be stated in advance.
Principal Investment Strategies
Illinois TERM invests exclusively in high quality money market instruments all of which are permitted investments pursuant to the Illinois Public Funds Investment Act, 30 ILCS 235/1 et seq. Investments include but are not limited to:
Obligations of the U.S. Government and its Agencies and Instrumentalities
Repurchase agreements involving obligations of the U.S. Government and its Agencies and Instrumentalities
Certain obligations of financial institutions, including certificates of deposit issued by FDIC-insured banks
Negotiable Certificates of Deposit Commercial Paper Bankers’ Acceptances Obligations of banks Floating-rate and variable-rate obligations Money market mutual funds and other pooled
investment vehicles that observe certain investment restrictions
Main Risks
As with any similar pooled investment, there are several factors that could hurt the Portfolio’s performance, cause you to lose money, or cause the Portfolio’s performance to trail that of other investments.
Credit risk The issuer of a security could fail to pay interest or principal in a timely manner. The credit quality of an Illinois Term portfolio’s holdings could change rapidly in certain markets, and the default or decline in credit quality of even a single holding could cause the portfolio’s share price to fall.
Early redemption risk Early redemption penalties charged to an Investor by Illinois Term could reduce or eliminate investment gains, and could mean that the amount that Investor receives back is less than the initial investment.
Management risk Performance could be hurt by decisions made by the Investment Adviser, such as choice of investments or investment maturities or timing of buy/sell decisions.
An investment in Illinois TERM is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Portfolio seeks to preserve the value of your investment on the planned redemption date at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in Illinois TERM.

Overview
From time to time the Investment Adviser may, at the request or with the approval of the Trustees, make other services or programs available to Investors of the Trust. Investors are advised that these additional services and programs are separate from the investment programs encompassed by the Trust, and the Trustees of the Trust take no responsibility for such services or programs. The parties offering such programs are solely responsible for them, and questions regarding any such service or program should be directed to the party offering it. The interests held under any Additional Program are in the name of the respective Investors and are not part of the assets of any series of the Trust.
At present, the Investment Adviser offers to Trust Investors a Certificates of Deposit Investment Program, a SAM Program, and a BAM Program. These programs are separate from the Trust’s investment program and its Board takes no responsibility for them. Investors that opt to take advantage of these programs must enter into a separate agreement with the Investment Adviser.
For further information about each Program, contact the Investment Adviser.
Certificates of Deposit Investment Program
CDs available through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program are issued by institutions whose deposits are insured by the FDIC or NCUSIF within limits prescribed by law. FDIC or NCUSIF insurance is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. For each depositor that otherwise qualifies, interest and principal are fully insured up to the applicable insurance limit in effect at the time of purchase. In order to maintain FDIC or NCUSIF insurance coverage of both principal and interest on CDs purchased through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program, CDs may only be purchased in amounts so that the total value of the CD and all interest thereon will not exceed the applicable FDIC or NCUSIF insurance limit. For purposes of providing advice on CDs, the Investment Adviser will assume, unless the Program Participant informs the Investment Adviser to the contrary, that the Program Participant is entitled to the applicable FDIC or NCUSIF insurance on each CD purchased through the Program.
Additional information regarding FDIC or NCUSIF coverage limits and requirements can be found at: www.myFDICinsurance.gov and www.ncu.gov.
Eligible CDs
The Investment Adviser seeks to ensure that each Program Participant’s CD investments are entirely covered by FDIC insurance. The Investment Adviser also reviews the financial condition of each financial institution whose CDs are being offered under the program.
Redemption of Program CDs
On the maturity date, redemption proceeds will automatically be wired to your Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ Class account.
Separate Account Management (SAM)
In the SAM program, the Investment Adviser works closely with each Program Participant to create a comprehensive investment strategy and individual portfolio for operating funds and reserves of the Program Participant. Each SAM account is created by the Investment Adviser following a review of budget and cash flow projections and schedules of the Program Participant. SAM accounts can be managed on either discretionary or non-discretionary basis. Program Participants participating in the SAM program receive a cash flow review, investment policy review and assistance in determining acceptable benchmarks, in addition to other cash management services (during the term of the investment advisory agreement). SAM is designed to apply to all or a substantial portion of a Program Participant's budget on an annual basis.
Bond Account Management (BAM)
In the BAM program, the Investment Adviser works closely with the Program Participant to create a comprehensive investment strategy and portfolio for the Program Participant while focusing on the project’s disbursement needs. In addition, the Investment Adviser offers arbitrage rebate services, investment policy review and development, cash flow modeling, and cash management services.
Additional Fund Programs

Main Risks
There are several risk factors that you bear directly as a Certificates of Deposit Investment Program Participant.
Credit risk The issuer of a CD could fail to pay interest or repay principal in a timely manner. In such a case, the amount and the timing of any repayment may depend on the FDIC or NCUSIF.
FDIC or NCUA risk If the FDIC or NCUSIF fails to honor its stated coverage of CDs purchased through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program, you would be solely responsible for resolving the matter with the insuring party and would bear any losses.
Eligibility risk The Certificates of Deposit Investment Program does not actively monitor any Program Participant’s eligibility for FDIC or NCUSIF coverage or the eligibility of any particular CD for any Program Participant. The Program Participant is solely responsible for notifying the Investment Adviser about outside investments that may have an adverse effect on assets invested through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program.
Excess deposit risk Because the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program can not actively monitor deposits of any type that are made outside the Program, your total deposits with a financial institution could exceed FDIC or NCUSIF coverage limits, leaving you exposed to potential losses should the financial institution be unable to honor its commitments to depositors.
Early redemption risk CDs are not liquid and may be subject to early redemption. Early redemption penalties charged by the CD issuer could reduce or eliminate any earnings, and could mean that the amount you get back is less than your initial purchase amount.
There are also risks that you bear directly as a SAM/BAM Program Participant:
Interest rate risk When short-term interest rates fall, the market value of any fixed rate investment is likely to rise. When interest rates rise, especially if the rise is sharp or unexpected, a security’s market value is likely to fall.
Credit risk The issuer of a security could fail to pay interest or principal in a timely manner. The credit quality of any security could change rapidly in certain markets, and the default or decline in credit quality of even a single holding could cause the overall value of program securities to fall.
Liquidity risk The value of program securities could fall during times when markets are illiquid.
Management risk Performance could be hurt by decisions made by the Investment Adviser, such as choice of investments.
Additional Program Compensation
The fees for the Additional Programs are negotiated directly by the Investment Adviser with the Program Participant and determined after a review of various factors. The Investment Adviser has agreed with the Trust that investment advisory, administrative and marketing fees for the SAM Program shall not exceed 12 basis point (0.12%) of the daily assets under management of each SAM portfolio, subject to a minimum investment advisory fee of $25,000 for all SAM portfolios. The Investment Adviser has agreed with the Trust that the investment advisory fees for the BAM Program shall also be determined under separate agreement with the Investment Advisor. The Investment Adviser has further agreed that investment advisory, administrative and marketing fees for the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program shall not exceed 25 basis points (0.25%) of the principal amount under management.
Management
Investment Adviser PFM Asset Management LLC
Custodian (Applicable to the BAM Program only) Although Program Participants are free to choose a custodian, the Trust has arranged for its Custodian, U.S. Bank, to be available to serve as custodian for the assets of any BAM Program account. The Custodian holds cash and securities of each account in a separate account in the name of the applicable Program Participant. The Custodian does not participate in investment decisions.
Tax Information
We suggest that you check with your tax advisor before purchasing CDs or any other investments. Relevant considerations may include:
Section 115(1) of the Code, which provides that the gross income of a state or political subdivision does not include income derived from the exercise of any essential government function.
Section 148 of the Code (and related regulations) covering rebate requirements, which may apply to anyone investing tax-exempt bond proceeds.
The arbitrage limitations or rebate requirements of section 148 of the Code (and related regulations), under which states and municipalities may be required to pay the U.S. Treasury a portion of earnings they derive from the investment of certain funds.

Part 2 – Information Statement Addendum
General Information
The Trust
History and Description of the Trust On September 27, 2011, the Board of Trustees of the former Illinois Institutional Investors Trust ("IIIT") approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Plan") between IIIT and the Illinois Park District Liquid Asset Fund Plus ("IPDLAF+"), which Plan was approved by the Board of Trustees of the IPDLAF+ on September 21, 2011. Until its dissolution effective February 27, 2012 in accordance with the Plan, IPDLAF+ was a common law trust established to provide an investment opportunity for Treasurers or other official custodians of the funds of Illinois park districts, forest preserve districts, conservations districts and joint recreational programs. IPDLAF+ has substantially the same investment objectives and policies of the Trust and PFM Asset Management LLC also serves as the Investment Adviser and Administrator of IPDLAF+.
On February 27, 2012, IIIT acquired the assets and liabilities of IPDLAF+. In conjunction with the Plan, IIIT was renamed Illinois Trust and the existing IIIT Portfolio was renamed Illinois Portfolio. Shares of the existing IIIT Portfolio became shares of the IIIT Class of the Illinois Portfolio and the existing IIIT TERM Portfolio was renamed Illinois TERM Portfolio. Additionally, existing shares of the Illinois Portfolio were exchanged for shares in the newly created IPDLAF+ Class of the Illinois Portfolio and IPDLAF+ was dissolved as a legal entity. The IPDLAF+ Class of the Illinois Portfolio is limited to Investors which are park districts, forest preserve districts, conservation districts and joint recreational programs and shares of the IIIT Class are available for investment by other eligible entities.
The Trust consists of the Illinois Portfolio (including the IIIT Class and IPDLAF+ Class) and the Illinois TERM Portfolio (including various TERM Series), (each a “Portfolio” or collectively, the “Portfolios”). The Illinois Portfolio seeks to provide Investors with high current income consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. Each Illinois TERM Series is a fixed rate, fixed-term investment that seeks to obtain a high rate of return. The Trust pursues these objectives by conducting a professionally managed investment program consistent with the policies and restrictions described below:
The Declaration
Each potential Investor in the Trust receives a copy of the Declaration of Trust before it becomes an Investor. Certain portions of the Declaration of Trust are summarized in this Information Statement. However, these summaries are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text of the Declaration of Trust.
Description of Shares. The Declaration of Trust authorizes the issuance of an unlimited number of non-transferable shares that may be used to represent the proportionate allocation among Investors of beneficial interest in the Trust. These shares do not entitle Investors to any preference, conversion, exchange or preemptive rights. No shares may be assigned or transferred to any person other than the Trust itself at the time of withdrawal. Furthermore, shares may not be pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered by an Investor.
The Trustees, in their discretion, from time to time, may authorize the division of shares into two or more separate series and the division of any series into two or more separate classes of Shares, as they deem necessary and desirable. The different series or classes shall be established and designated, and the variations in the relative rights and preferences as between the different series or classes, shall be fixed and determined, by the Trustees, without the requirement of Investor approval. Each series shall relate to a separate portfolio of investments.
An Investor only receives earnings from the investments of the series or class in which it invests. The investment portfolio of each series is independent of the investment portfolio of each other series. In the event of the incurrence of a loss with respect to any series (whether of principal or interest), no contribution will be made to such series from the portfolio of any other series to offset such loss. No series constitutes security or collateral for any other series.

Voting. For all matters requiring a vote of Investors, each Investor is entitled to one vote with respect to each matter, regardless of the number of shares that the Investor holds. Investors are not entitled to cumulative voting or voting on a series-by-series or class-by-class basis.
Withdrawals. Pursuant to a request for withdrawal of shares from an Investor, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Declaration of Trust, the Trust shall cause to be delivered to the Custodian a certificate signed on behalf of the Trust specifying the amount to be paid for the shares redeemed. A withdrawal request made by an Investor in the form of a check drawn upon its Trust account with Custodian is deemed to constitute the presentation of a certificate. Investors also may make withdrawals by written, telephonic or facsimile request in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Information Statement.
Distributions. In addition to distributions made pursuant to withdrawals by Investors, the Trustees may from time to time declare and pay to the Investors in those series or classes, in proportion to their respective ownership of shares, such supplementary distributions as they may determine necessary, out of the earnings, profits or assets in the hands of the Trustees. The declaration and payment of such supplementary distributions and the determinations of earnings, profits, and other funds available for such supplementary distributions or other purposes, shall lie wholly in the discretion of the Trustees and may be made at such time and in such manner as they, in their sole discretion, determine.
The Trustees may also allocate to the Investors in the IIIT Class and IPDLAF+ Class, in proportion to their respective ownership of shares, additional shares in such manner and on such terms as they may deem proper.
Any or all supplementary distributions will be made among the Investors of record at the time of declaring such distribution or among the Investors of record at such other date as the Trustees shall determine. Subject to the foregoing, an Investor may only receive such supplementary distribution from the investments of the series and/or class in which it participates.
Borrowing. The Trust may not borrow money or incur indebtedness except to facilitate as a temporary measure: (a) withdrawal requests which might otherwise require unscheduled dispositions of Portfolio investments; (b) for a period not to exceed one (1) business day, withdrawal requests pending receipt of collected funds from investments sold on the date of the withdrawal requests or withdrawal requests from Investors who have notified the Trust of their intention to deposit funds in their accounts on the date of the withdrawal request; or (c) for a period not to exceed one (1) business day, the purchase of Permitted Investments pending receipt of collected funds from Investors who have notified the Trust of their intention to deposit funds in their accounts on the date of the purchase of the Permitted Investments.
Investor Liability. The Declaration of Trust provides that Investors shall not be subject to any individual liability for the acts or obligations of the Trust and provides that every written undertaking made by the Trust shall contain a provision that such undertaking is not binding upon any of the Investors individually. The Trustees intend to conduct the operations of the Trust, with advice of counsel, in such a way as to avoid ultimate liability of the Investors for liabilities of the Trust.
Responsibility of Trustees, Officers and Agents. No Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust (or other person who might be designated by the Trustees) is individually liable to the Trust, an Investor, an officer, an employee or an agent of the Trust, for any action or failure to act unless it is taken or omitted in bad faith or constitutes willful misfeasance or misconduct, reckless disregard of duty or gross negligence. All third parties shall look solely to the Trust property for the satisfaction of claims arising in connection with the affairs of the Trust.
Indemnification. Subject to certain conditions and limitations set forth in the Declaration of Trust, the Trust will indemnify each of its Trustees and officers, and employees and any other persons designated by the Trustees to receive such indemnification, against all liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or as fines and penalties, and counsel fees) reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding by the Trust or any other person, whether civil or criminal, in which he or she may be involved or with which he or she may be threatened, while in office or thereafter, by reason of his or her being or having been such a Trustee, officer, employee, agent or otherwise designated person, except as to any matter as to which he or she shall have been adjudicated to have acted in bad faith or with willful misfeasance or misconduct or reckless disregard of his or her duties or gross negligence.

Amendment and Termination of the Declaration
Amendment of Declaration of Trust. The Declaration of Trust may be amended by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Investors present in person or by proxy entitled to vote or by an instrument in writing, without a meeting, signed by a majority of the Trustees and consented to by not less than a majority of the Investors entitled to vote. The Trustees may, from time to time, by a two-thirds vote of the Trustees, and after fifteen (15) days' prior written notice to the Investors, amend the Declaration of Trust without the vote or consent of the Investors, to the extent that they deem necessary to conform the Declaration of Trust to the requirements of applicable laws or regulations, or any interpretation thereof by a court or other governmental agency, but the Trustees shall not be liable for failing to do so
Termination of the Declaration of Trust. The Trust may be terminated by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Investors present in person or by proxy entitled to vote at any meeting of Investors or by an instrument in writing, without a meeting, signed by a majority of the Trustees and consented to by a majority of the Investors entitled to vote. Upon the termination of the Trust and after paying or adequately providing for the payment of all of its liabilities, and upon receipt of such releases, indemnities and refunding agreements as they deem necessary for their protection, the Trustees may distribute the remaining Trust property, in cash or in kind or partly in cash and partly in kind, among the Investors according to their respective proportionate beneficial interests.
Operating Policies The Trust has developed operating policies pertaining to deposits, withdrawals, check writing, stop payments and wire and other electronic transactions. These operating polices are available to all Investors and may be amended from time to time. These policies have been developed for the protection of the Trust and its Investors. The policies are integral to the operation of the Trust and are binding on the Investors and potential investors.
Services Advisory Services. The Trust has entered into separate Investment Advisory Agreements with the Investment Adviser, pursuant to which the Investment Adviser manages the investment of the Trust’s Portfolios, including the placement of orders for the purchase and sale of Portfolio securities. The Investment Adviser obtains and evaluates such information and advice relating to the economy and the securities market as it considers necessary or useful to manage continuously the assets of the Trust in a manner consistent with the investment objectives and policies of the Portfolios.
Portfolio Transactions. Subject to the general supervision of the Trustees, the Investment Adviser is responsible for the investment decisions and for placing the orders for portfolio transactions for the Trust. The Trust's portfolio transactions occur primarily with major dealers in money market and government instruments acting as principals. Such transactions are normally on a net basis, which do not involve payment of brokerage commissions. Transactions with dealers normally reflect the spread between bid and asked prices.
Although the Trust does not ordinarily seek, but may nonetheless make profits through short-term trading, the Investment Adviser may, on behalf of the Trust, dispose of any portfolio investment prior to its maturity if it believes such disposition is advisable. The Trust's policy of generally investing in instruments with maturities of less than one (1) year will result in high portfolio turnover. However, since brokerage commissions are not normally paid on the types of investments which the Trust may make, any turnover resulting from such investments should not adversely affect the net asset value or net income of the Trust.
The Investment Adviser seeks to obtain the best net price and most favorable execution of orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities. Where price and execution offered by more than one dealer are comparable, the Investment Adviser may, in its discretion, purchase and sell investments through dealers which provide research, statistical and other information to the Investment Adviser or to the Trust. Such supplemental information received from a dealer is in addition to the services required to be performed by the Investment Adviser under its agreement with the Trust, and the expenses of the Investment Adviser will not necessarily be reduced as a result of the receipt of such information.
Portfolio investments will not be purchased from or sold to the Investment Adviser or any affiliate of the Investment Adviser
Customer Service. The Investment Adviser operates a toll-free telephone facility to be used by Investors or by local governments interested in becoming Investors. The Investment Adviser also develops and maintains the online access and transaction systems.
Transfer Agent, Dividend Disbursing Agent. The Investment Adviser maintains account records for each Investor, produces statements of account, calculates and distributes the net income, and processes all transactions.

Election and Duties of the Trustees The Trustees have full, exclusive and absolute control and authority over the business and affairs of the Trust and the Trust's assets, subject to the rights of the Investors as provided in the Declaration. The Trustees may perform such acts as in their sole judgment and discretion are necessary and proper for conducting the business and affairs of the Trust or promoting the interests of the Trust.

Unless otherwise agreed upon, each Trustee serves a term of three years and, as long as eligible, may be re-elected to any number of successive terms. In order to facilitate the smooth working of the Board of Trustees, the Trustees shall be divided into three classes, as equal in number as practicable, so arranged that the term of one class shall expire at the respective annual meetings or votes of Investors held following the conclusion of each fiscal year of the Trust. At all annual meetings or votes, a class of Trustees shall be elected to fill the class whose term then expires.

Eligibility. Pursuant to the Declaration, an individual eligible to be a Trustee must be an authorized representative of a public agency which is an Investor of the Trust. An authorized representative includes a treasurer or other financial officer or any other person authorized by the Investor public agency. Elections and Vacancies. Election of the Trustees is by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Investors at an annual meeting or annual vote of Investors, except when a Trustee is unable to complete the term to which such Trustee has been elected. If such vacancy occurs, the remaining Trustees will, by a majority vote, elect an eligible individual to serve for the balance of the term for which vacancy said Trustee was elected to fill. Officers. The Trustees may elect two members of the Board of Trustees to serve as Chairperson and Vice Chairperson of the Trust. They may also elect two individuals, who need not be Trustees, to serve as Treasurer of the Trust and Secretary of the Trust. These officers (the "Officers") are elected annually by a majority vote of the Trustees. Compensation. The Trustees serve without compensation, but they are reimbursed by the Trust for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their duties as Trustees. Duties. The Trustees are responsible for the general policies and programs of the Trust. They are also responsible for the general supervision and administration of the business and affairs of the Trust. However, the Trustees are not required to devote their entire time to the affairs of the Trust and are not required to personally conduct all of the business of the Trust. Specifically, the Trustees oversee the investment program implemented by the Investment Adviser but do not make investment decisions for the Trust. Accordingly, consistent with their ultimate responsibility, the Trustees have appointed an administrator, an investment adviser, a distributor and a custodian bank to which the Trustees have assigned such duties as they deem to be appropriate.

The Portfolios
Information Common to All Portfolios
The Investment Adviser maintains records of all Portfolio securities owned, performs the bookkeeping for all Portfolio sales and purchases, determines the daily and monthly Portfolio income distribution amounts, and under the direction of the Trustees determines the net asset value of shares of the Portfolio each Business Day.
Authorized Investments
The Trust is specifically designed for public agencies. Accordingly, its Portfolios invest solely in instruments in which public agencies are permitted to invest (“Permitted Investments”), all of which are permitted investment pursuant to the Illinois Public Funds Investment Act, 30 ILCS 235/1 et seq.: Such instruments currently include the following:
(1) bonds, notes, certificates of indebtedness, treasury bills or other securities now or hereafter issued or guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America as to principal and interest;
(2) bonds, notes, debentures, or other similar obligations of the United States of America or its agencies or instrumentalities;
(3) interest-bearing savings accounts, interest-bearing certificates of deposit, interest- bearing time deposits, bankers’ acceptances or any other investments constituting direct obligations of any bank that are permitted by applicable law. These investments may also be: (i) federally insured; or (ii) collateralized by any of the classes of securities permitted by the Illinois Public Trusts Investment Act. No more than 5% of the Illinois Portfolio’s assets may be invested in bankers’ acceptances of any one bank;
(4) short-term obligations of corporations organized in the United States with assets exceeding $500,000,000 if (i) such obligations are rated at the time of purchase at one of the 3 highest classifications established by at least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations and which mature not later than 270 days from the date of purchase, (ii) such purchases do not exceed 10% of the corporation's outstanding obligations and (iii) at the time of purchase no more than one-third of a Portfolio of the Trust may be invested in short term obligations of corporations;
(5) money market mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, provided that the portfolio of any such money market mutual funds is limited to obligations described in paragraph (1) or (2) of this subsection and to agreements to repurchase such obligations;
(6) repurchase agreements with respect to securities described under subsection (1) and (2) without regard to the maturity of the securities underlying the agreements. Repurchase agreement transactions must be collateralized as provided herein;
(7) variable-rate and floating-rate obligations. Debt obligations purchased by the Trust may have interest rates that are periodically adjusted at specified intervals or whenever a benchmark rate or index changes. These floating-rate and variable-rate instruments may include certificates of participation in such instruments. These securities may have demand features which give the Trust the right to demand repayment of principal on specified dates or after giving a specified notice. Adjustable rate securities and securities with demand features may be deemed to have maturities shorter than their stated maturity dates.
Investment Restrictions The Trustees, have adopted the following investment restrictions and fundamental investment policies for the Portfolios. These cannot be changed without approval of the Investors holding a majority of the outstanding shares of each Portfolio or series within a Portfolio to be affected by the change. No Portfolio will do any of the following:
Purchase any securities other than those listed under “Authorized Investments” above unless Illinois State legislation at some future time redefines the types of securities which are legal investments for all classes of Investors, in which case the permitted investments for the Portfolios may be conformed to such changes. No change in the permitted investments for the Portfolios will be effected without prior written notification to the Investors affected by such change.
Illinois Trust Information Statement — February 23, 2016
22
Invest in securities of any issuer in which a Trustee, or officer, or employee or agent of the Trust is an officer, director, or 10% or greater shareholder unless such investment is periodically authorized by resolutions adopted by a majority of the Trustees who are not officers, directors, or 10% shareholders of such issuer.
Make loans, provided that a Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with terms as long as 397 days, if, as a result thereof, not more than 10% of that Portfolio’s total assets would be subject to repurchase agreements that mature in more than seven days, unless they are subject to irrevocable puts exercisable in less than seven days, (this 10% limitation does not apply to the Illinois TERM Portfolio).
Borrow money or pledge, hypothecate, or mortgage its assets to an extent greater than 25% of the market value of total assets of the Portfolio, and then only as a temporary measure for extraordinary or emergency purposes, to facilitate withdrawal requests which might otherwise require untimely dispositions of Portfolio securities. All such borrowings must be repaid before the Portfolio makes any additional investments. Interest paid on such borrowings will reduce net income.
Main Risks
There are risks associated with investment in the Trust’s Portfolios which should be considered carefully by Investors and potential Investors in light of their particular circumstances as they may exist from time to time. The Portfolios of the Trust may not be an appropriate investment in certain situations for some Investors and potential Investors. Although the Trust has been designed and is operated with the goal of minimizing risk, Investors and potential Investors should carefully consider the factors described in this section in light of their particular circumstances. The risks specified in this section may also be applicable to certain investments in individual portfolios (“Individual Portfolios”) which the Trust offers to Investors. Individual Portfolios allow public agencies the option to contract with the Investment Adviser to have an individual portfolio managed to meet the agency's specific investment objectives. For additional information regarding Individual Portfolios, please refer to the “ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS AND SERVICES” section of this document.
Income, Market and Credit Risk. Investments in the Trust’s Portfolios are subject to income, market and credit risk. Income risk is the potential for a decline in current income of a Portfolio of the Trust. The current income of the Trust’s Portfolios are based on short-term interest rates, which can fluctuate substantially over short periods. Accordingly, investments in the Trust’s Portfolios are subject to current income volatility. Market risk is the potential for a decline in the market value of fixed- income securities held in a Portfolio of the Trust as a result of a rise in prevailing interest rates. This could result in the incurrence of a loss with respect to a security in the event that such a security were to be sold for a market price less than its amortized value. Credit risk is the possibility that an issuer of securities held in a Portfolio of the Trust fails to make timely payments of principal or interest. The credit risk of a Portfolio is a function of the credit quality of its underlying securities. A discussion of the credit risks associated with certain Permitted Investments is set forth below.
Repurchase Agreements. The Trust’s Portfolios may invest in Permitted Investments which may include repurchase agreements. In a repurchase agreement, an investment is sold to the Portfolio at which time the seller agrees to repurchase the investment from the Portfolio at a specified time and at an agreed upon price. The yield on the repurchase agreement is determined at the time of sale. This yield may be more or less than the interest rate on the underlying collateral. All collateral is delivered to and held by the Custodian or by another custodian appointed by the Trustees.
Although the Portfolios enter into such repurchase agreement arrangements only with recognized and established securities firms (the “Counterparty”) selected by the Investment Adviser, there can be no assurance that such Counterparty will pay the agreed upon repurchase amount on the designated date. In the event that such Counterparty fails to pay the agreed upon price at the specified time, the Portfolios of the Trust might suffer a loss resulting from (i) diminution of the value of the underlying Permitted Investment to an amount below the amount of the anticipated repurchase price, (ii) the costs associated with the resale of the investment, and (iii) a delay experienced in foreclosing upon and selling the investment.
Although at the time the Portfolios enter into a repurchase agreement the underlying collateral has a market value which is equal to 102% of the price paid by the Portfolios and equal to or greater than the anticipated repurchase price, there can be no assurance that such market value will continue to equal or exceed the repurchase price. In the event the market value of the underlying collateral falls below the agreed upon repurchase price, the responsible person with which the Portfolios have entered into the repurchase agreement will be required to deliver additional collateral to the Portfolios of the Trust.
Illinois Trust Information Statement — February 23, 2016
23
There can be no assurance that such deliveries of additional collateral will be made in all circumstances. In the event that such a delivery is not made and the responsible person does not pay the repurchase price on the specified date, the amount of the Portfolios’ loss will be increased as a consequence of such failure of delivery.
Obligations of United States Government Agencies and Instrumentalities. Investors should be aware that not all obligations issued by agencies and instrumentalities of the United States Government are guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. The obligations of some agencies and instrumentalities of the United States Government that may be purchased by the Portfolios of the Trust from time to time are obligations only of the applicable agency or instrumentality and are not full faith and credit obligations of the United States. The creditworthiness of such obligations relates only to the credit of the issuing agency or instrumentality. No assurance can be given that the agency or instrumentality will under all circumstances be able to obtain funds from the United States Government or other sources to support all of its obligations.
Certificates of Deposit. Although the Investment Adviser uses the investment criteria established by the Trustees in order to reduce risk when determining which institutions will be used for such investments, no assurance can be given that such an institution will not become insolvent during the life of an investment in it. Certificates of deposit in amounts above Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance limits are not insured. In determining FDIC insurance limits, Federal regulations provide that all amounts deposited by a depositor, including amounts deposited directly, through brokers or through other means in a financial institution – regardless of the source – will be combined in determining the insurance limit.
FDIC-Insured Certificates of Deposit. Some of the assets of the Trust’s Portfolios may be invested in certificates of deposit subject to applicable FDIC insurance limits in effect at the time of purchase.
In the event that an institution issuing an insured certificate of deposit in which the Trust’s Portfolios have invested becomes insolvent, or in the event of any other default with respect to such a certificate of deposit, an insurance claim will be filed with the FDIC by the Trust, if appropriate. In such a case, there may be delays before the FDIC, or other financial institution to which the FDIC has arranged for the deposit to be transferred, makes the relevant payments. Such delays may be occasioned by requirements relating to the filing and processing of insurance claims, including requests for additional information by the FDIC. Furthermore, if the defaulted deposit is transferred to another institution, the transferee institution may, instead of paying the insured amount, elect to keep the deposit in existence with or without changing its original terms. Such changes of terms may include a reduction of the original interest rate paid on the deposit.
The amount insured by the FDIC is the principal of the relevant deposit and the interest accrued on the deposit to the date of default, up to applicable FDIC insurance limits in effect at the time of purchase in the aggregate. There is no insurance with respect to interest on a deposit between the date of the default and the date of the payment of insurance by the FDIC. Accordingly, a default by an institution might result in a delay in the receipt of invested principal and pre-default accrued interest by an affected Investor and a loss of interest related to the period between the date of the default and the payment of the insurance.
In addition, the FDIC could deny any claim that it does not deem to be valid. Any such denial might have to be challenged in judicial or administrative proceedings brought by the Trust and any affected Investor.
Collateralized Certificates of Deposit. From time to time, the Trust’s Portfolios may invest in collateralized certificates of deposit as permitted by Illinois Law. In the event of a default on such a certificate of deposit, it may be necessary to foreclose on the collateral. Such foreclosure will entail certain risks for the Investors in the Trust. These risks include losses resulting from a diminution in the value of the collateral before it can be sold, procedural delays relating to the foreclosure, costs of foreclosure and a failure to realize an amount in the foreclosure equal to the principal of and interest on the defaulted certificate of deposit.
Commercial Paper. The Trust’s Portfolios may purchase commercial paper which qualifies as a Permitted Investment. Commercial paper is a debt instrument that is issued by a company and is secured only by the assets, if any, of that company. The creditworthiness of such an obligation relates only to the creditworthiness of the issuing company. No assurance can be given that a company will not become insolvent during the life of an investment in it. In the event of such insolvency or in the event of any other default with respect to such commercial paper, a claim will be filed by the Trust
Illinois Trust Information Statement — February 23, 2016
24

Information Specific to the Illinois Portfolio
Investment Restrictions
The Trustees, have adopted the following investment restrictions and fundamental investment policies for the Illinois Portfolio. These cannot be changed without approval of the Investors holding a majority of the outstanding shares of the Illinois. The Illinois Portfolio will not do any of the following:
Purchase any Permitted Investment if the effect of such purchase would be to make the average dollar-weighted maturity of the Illinois Portfolio greater than 60 days and the dollar-weighted average life (portfolio maturity computed to final maturity without regard to interest rate adjustments on investments) greater than 120 days.
Purchase the securities of any single issuer (other than obligations issued and guaranteed as to principal and interest by the government of the United States, its agencies or instrumentalities) if, as a result, more than ten percent (10%) of the Portfolio’s total assets would be invested in the securities of any one issuer.
Invest more than 5% of net assets in illiquid investments. Illiquid investments are securities that cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business at approximately the value ascribed to it by the Trust. Illiquid investments include:
Restricted investments (those that, for legal reasons, cannot be freely sold).
Fixed time deposits with a maturity of more than seven days that are subject to early withdrawal penalties.
Any repurchase agreement maturing in more than seven days and not terminable at approximately the carrying value in the Trust before that time.
Other investments that are not readily marketable at approximately the carrying value in the Trust.
If the 5% limitation on investing in illiquid securities is adhered to at the time of investment, but later increases beyond 5% resulting from a change in the values of the Trust’s portfolio securities or total assets, the Trust shall then bring the percentage of illiquid investments back into conformity as soon as practicably possible. The Trust believes that these
Illinois Trust Information Statement — February 23, 2016
26
liquidity requirements are reasonable and appropriate to assure that the securities in which the Trust invests are sufficiently liquid to meet reasonably foreseeable redemptions of Shares.
Maturity The Illinois Portfolio maintains a dollar-weighted average maturity of no more than 60 days and a dollar-weighted life (final maturity, adjusted for demand features but not interest rate adjustments) of no more than 120 days.
Certain obligations of the United States Government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities owned by the Portfolio may have remaining maturities exceeding one year if such securities provide for adjustments in their interest rates at least annually, and the adjustments are sufficient to cause the securities to have market values, after adjustments, which approximate amortized cost values. Investments in the Portfolios are denominated in U.S dollars and have remaining maturities (or, in the case of repurchase agreements, remaining terms) of 397 days or less at the time of purchase, However, the Portfolios may invest in securities with maturities greater than 397 days if certain maturity shortening features (such as interest rate resets or demand features) apply.
Dividends
All net income of the Illinois Portfolio is determined as of the close of business on each Illinois banking day (and at such other times as set forth in the Trust's By-Laws). Net income is converted as of the close of business of each calendar month into additional shares of beneficial interest which are credited to and are held in each Investor's account. Such net income is converted into full and fractional shares of beneficial interest at the rate of one share for each one dollar ($1.00) paid. Although income is not automatically transmitted in cash, Investors may obtain cash by withdrawing shares at their net asset value without charge.
For the purpose of calculating Illinois Portfolio dividends, net income shall consist of interest earned plus any discount ratably amortized to the maturity date plus or minus all realized gains and losses on the sale of securities prior to maturity, less ratable amortization of any premium and less all accrued expenses of the Illinois Portfolio, including the fees payable to the Investment Adviser, the Administrator, the Distributor and others who provide services to the Illinois Portfolio.
Valuation of Shares
The net asset value per share of the Illinois Portfolio for the purpose of calculating the price at which shares are issued and redeemed is determined by the Administrator as of the close of business of each Illinois banking day or at such other time or times as set forth in the Trust's By-Laws or as the Trustees by resolution may determine, except that on any day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) has called for an early close of trading in the bond market, the net asset value of shares shall be determined as of the close of trading in the bond market on such day (as determined by SIFMA). It is calculated by dividing the value of the Illinois Portfolio’s total assets less its liabilities (including accrued expenses) by the number of shares outstanding for both the IIIT Class and the IPDLAF+ Class.
In making these computations, the Administrator values the Illinois Portfolio's investments by using the amortized cost method. The amortized cost method of valuation involves valuing an investment instrument at its cost at the time of purchase and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instrument. While this method provides certainty in valuation, it may result in periods during which value, as determined by amortized cost, is higher or lower than the price the Illinois Portfolio would receive if it sold the instrument. During such periods, the yield to Investors may differ somewhat from that which would be obtained if the Illinois Portfolio used the market value method for valuing all its portfolio investments. For example, if the use of amortized cost resulted in a lower (higher) aggregate portfolio value on a particular day, a prospective Investor of the Illinois Portfolio would be able to obtain a somewhat higher (lower) yield than would result if the Illinois Portfolio used the market value method, and existing Investors would receive less (more) investment income. The purpose of this method of calculation is to attempt to maintain a constant net asset value per share of one dollar ($1.00).
The Trustees have adopted certain procedures with respect to the Illinois Portfolio's use of the amortized cost method to value its investment portfolio. These procedures are designed and intended (taking into account market conditions and the Trust's investment objectives) to stabilize net asset value per share as computed for the purpose of investment and redemption at one dollar ($1.00) per share. The procedures include a valuation of the Illinois Portfolio by the Administrator and the Custodian using the market value method and a periodic review by the Trustees, in such manner as they deem appropriate and at such intervals as are reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the relationship between net asset
Illinois Trust Information Statement — February 23, 2016
27
value per share based upon the amortized cost value of the Illinois Portfolio’s investments and the net asset value per share based upon available indications of market value with respect to such portfolio investments. In the event that there is a difference of more than 0.5% between the amortized cost value and the market value, it is anticipated that the Trustees will take such steps as they consider appropriate (such as shortening the average portfolio maturity or realizing gains or losses) to minimize any material dilution or other unfair results which might arise from differences between the two methods of valuation.
It is a fundamental policy of the Illinois Portfolio to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share for both the IIIT Class and the IPDLAF+ Class, but for the reasons here discussed there can be no assurance that the net asset value of the shares will not vary from $1.00 per share. The market value basis net asset value per share for the Illinois Portfolio may be affected by general changes in interest rates resulting in increases or decreases in the value of securities held by the Illinois Portfolio. The market value of such securities will tend to vary inversely to changes in prevailing interest rates. Thus, if interest rates rise after a security is purchased, such a security, if sold, might be sold at a price less than its amortized cost. Similarly, if interest rates decline, such a security, if sold, might be sold at a price greater than its amortized cost. If a security is held to maturity, no loss or gain is normally realized as a result of these price fluctuations; however, withdrawals by Investors could require the sale of portfolio securities prior to maturity. In the event that the difference between the amortized cost basis net asset value per share and market value basis net asset value per share exceeds 1/2 of 1 percent, the Investment Adviser and the Trustees will consider what, if any, corrective action should be taken to minimize any material dilution or other unfair results which might arise from differences between the two.
This action may include the reduction of the number of outstanding shares by having each Investor proportionately contribute shares to the portfolio's capital, suspension or rescission of dividends, declaration of a special capital distribution, sales of Illinois Portfolio securities prior to maturity to reduce the average maturity or to realize capital gains or losses, transfers of Illinois Portfolio securities to a separate account, or redemptions of shares in kind in an effort to maintain the net asset value at $1.00 per share. If the number of outstanding shares is reduced in order to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share, Investors will contribute proportionately to the Illinois Portfolio's capital the number of shares which represent the difference between the amortized cost valuation and market valuation of the Illinois Portfolio. Each Investor will be deemed to have agreed to such contribution by its investment in the Illinois Portfolio.
Yield Current yield information for the Illinois Portfolio, specifically the IIIT Class and IPDLAF+ Class may, from time to time, be quoted in reports, literature and advertisements published by the Trust. The current yield, which is also known as the current annualized yield or the current seven-day yield, represents the net change, exclusive of capital changes and income other than investment income, in the value of a hypothetical account with a balance of one share (normally valued at $1.00 per share) over a seven-day base period expressed as a percentage of the value of one share at the beginning of the seven-day period. This resulting net change in account value is then annualized by multiplying it by 365 and dividing the result by 7.
The Trust may also quote a current effective yield for the Illinois Portfolio, including the IIIT Class and the IPDLAF+ Class from time to time. The current effective yield represents the current yield compounded to assume reinvestment of dividends. The current effective yield is computed by determining the net change in account value over a seven-day base period (exclusive of capital changes and income other than investment income), over a seven day period in the value of a hypothetical account with a balance of one share at the beginning of the period, dividing the difference by the value of the account at the beginning of the period to obtain the base period return, then compounding the base period return by adding 1, raising the sum to a power equal to 365 divided by 7, and subtracting 1 from the result. The current effective yield will normally be slightly higher than the current yield because of the compounding effect of the assumed reinvestment.
The Trust also may publish a “monthly distribution yield” for the IIIT Class and IPDLAF+ Class on each Investor's month-end account statement. The monthly distribution yield represents the net change in the value of one share (normally valued at $1.00 per share) resulting from all dividends declared during a month by the applicable class of the Illinois Portfolio expressed as a percentage of the value of a hypothetical account with a balance of one share at the beginning of the month. This resulting net change is then annualized by multiplying it by 365 and dividing it by the number of calendar days in the month.
At the request of the Trustees or Investors, the Trust may also quote the current yield of the IIIT Class and the IPDLAF+ Class from time to time on bases other than seven days for the information of its Investors.

Information Specific to the Illinois TERM Portfolio
Maturity The Illinois TERM Portfolio is a fixed-term investment portfolio of the Trust with a maturity of up to one year, depending on the termination date of any particular series within the Portfolio.
Dividends
Dividends on shares of Illinois TERM are declared and paid on the termination date of each series, except for dividends on shares redeemed pursuant to a Planned Early Redemption or a Premature Redemption before the termination date of such series, which will be declared and paid when such shares are redeemed. Dividends will be paid from net income, which will consist of interest earned, plus any discount ratably amortized to the date of maturity, plus all realized gains and losses on the sale of securities prior to maturity, less ratable amortization of any premium and all accrued expenses of the series.
Dividends on shares which are declared and paid on a Planned Early Redemption Date are equal to the projected yield for such shares to the Planned Early Redemption Date, less any losses affecting projected yield attributable to such shares. Dividends on shares declared and paid on a Premature Redemption Date are equal to the projected yield for such shares to the Premature Redemption Date, less any losses affecting projected yield attributable to such shares. Dividends on shares declared and paid on a termination date for a series are equal to the projected yield for such shares to the termination date, less any losses affecting projected yield attributable to such shares, plus an additional dividend, if any, equal to any excess net income of the series attributable to such shares. Any excess net income of a series on the termination date of the series, will be allocated on a pro rata basis to all shares then outstanding. Dividends are deposited into an Investor's Illinois Portfolio account.
Investment securities may be distributed to the Investors in any series in lieu of cash whenever the Trustees determine that such distributions would be in the best interest of the Investors in the series.
Valuation of Shares
Premature Redemption. The redemption value per share for shares redeemed on a Premature Redemption Date is equal to the original purchase price for such share, plus dividends thereon, less such share’s allocation of any losses incurred by the series, less a Premature Redemption penalty if any. The Premature Redemption penalty will be calculated by the Trust’s Investment Adviser and will be equal to (i) all penalty charges, losses and other costs (including, without limitation, interest paid on funds borrowed to pay the redemption) associated with amending, terminating, selling or otherwise affecting any of the investments in the series in order to pay the Premature Redemption and (ii) an amount sufficient to maintain the projected yield on the remaining shares to the stated termination date for the series or to the Planned Early Redemption Date, as the case may be, less any losses affecting projected yield attributable to such shares. Thus, a Premature Redemption of shares may result in a penalty which could reduce the return and the principal value of the investment in amounts not ascertainable at the time shares of Illinois TERM are issued. The redemption value per share could be lower than the purchase price of the share, and the return could be lower than the projected yield quoted at the time of issuance of the share.
Termination Date. The redemption value per share on the termination date of a series of Illinois TERM will be equal to the original purchase price for such share, plus dividends thereon, less such share’s allocation of any losses incurred by the series (other than losses resulting from Premature Redemption of shares of a series).
Planned Early Redemption Date. The redemption value per share for shares being redeemed on a Planned Early Redemption Date is equal to the original purchase price for such shares plus dividends thereon, less such share’s allocation of any losses incurred by the series (other than losses resulting from Premature Redemption of shares of the series.).
Each series of Illinois TERM provides for a fixed-rate, fixed-term investment by Investors, but the market value of the underlying assets will, prior to their maturity, tend to fluctuate inversely with the direction of interest rates. It is the intent of the Trust to manage each series of Illinois TERM in a manner that produces a share price of at least $1.00 on the
Illinois Trust Information Statement — February 23, 2016
29
termination date and on each Planned Early Redemption Date for the Investor that redeems on said date. However, there can be no guarantee that this objective will be achieved.
The Investment Adviser, on behalf of the Trust, determines the net asset value of the shares of Illinois TERM at the close of each business day for purpose of computing fees. For this purpose. the net asset value per share for Illinois TERM is calculated by dividing the total value of investments and other assets less any liabilities by the total outstanding shares of a series of Illinois TERM as of the day the calculation is made.
Yield The yield quoted for any investment in a series of Illinois TERM is determined by dividing the expected net income per share for the period from the settlement date to the termination date or Planned Early Redemption Date, as applicable, by the purchase price per share, dividing this result by the actual number of days between the settlement date and the termination date or Planned Early Redemption Date, as applicable, and multiplying the result by 365. The yields quoted by the Trust or any of its representatives should not be considered a representation of the yield of the Illinois Portfolio (including the IIIT Class and the IPDLAF+ Class) or any series of Illinois TERM in the future, since the yield is not fixed. Actual yields will depend on the type, quality, yield and maturities of securities held by the portfolios, changes in interest rates, market conditions and other factors.
The Programs
Information Common to All Programs
Program Investments are not Assets of the Trust Any CDs purchased through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program and any securities purchased for the SAM Program or BAM Program are direct investments of the Investor, are not assets of the Trust, and are not held in any Portfolio of the Trust. The Trust does not issue, or in any way guarantee, the CDs or securities purchased under these Programs. Neither the Portfolios nor the Trust has any involvement with, or interest, financial or otherwise, in any Program CD or security purchased under these Programs, except that a Portfolio may receive funds for reinvestment from a Separate Account or from the payment of principal or interest on the CDs. There can be no assurance that the investment objectives of the Program will be achieved. Investments made by a Participant in any Program are governed solely by the terms of any agreement between the Program Participant and the Investment Adviser and the Trust plays no role with respect to such investments.
Limitations on Voting Rights Because the CDs purchased through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program and securities held in a SAM Program or BAM Program are not assets of the Trust, participation in any of these Programs does not entitle you to vote at any meeting of shareholders or otherwise exercise rights of a shareholder in a Portfolio of the Trust.
Information Specific to the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program
FDIC and NCUSIF Insurance The availability of FDIC or NCUSIF insurance is a critical factor in considering whether a bank or thrift institution (referred to herein as a “financial institution”) is eligible to participate in the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program, in that the number, size and location of many of the smaller community financial institutions which could participate in the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program make extensive credit review unfeasible. In light of this, and in order to assist the financial institutions in raising funds, the Federal government administers the FDIC and NCUSIF insurance programs with its provisions for investment, within prescribed limits, by institutional Investors. As a result, it is the Investment Adviser’s view that FDIC or NCUSIF insurance, in conjunction with a limited credit review as described below, is appropriate to identify financial institutions that will provide attractive investment returns without undue credit risk.
The Certificates of Deposit Investment Program is designed to provide Program Participants with the ability to purchase CDs from financial institutions throughout the United States that are intended to be insured by the FDIC or NCUSIF.
Illinois TrustInformation Statement — February 23, 2016
30
Deposits in savings accounts or time deposits or share accounts of financial institutions insured by the FDIC or NCUSIF are legal investments under relevant Illinois statutory provisions for funds of public agencies. Nevertheless, the investment policies of individual Program Participants may contain limitations that do not permit investment in the above-described investments. Each Program Participant represents that FDIC-insured and NCUSIF-insured CDs are permitted investments of the Program Participant under applicable laws and under the Program Participant’s investment policies. Although the Investment Adviser will recommend only those financial institutions that meet the criteria described below under "Criteria for Financial Institutions to Participate in the CD Program", the financial institutions that participate in the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program are generally small in size and are not rated by national credit rating organizations. The CDs will not be collateralized; hence there will be reliance only on federal deposit insurance and it is crucial that a Program Participant’s CDs be fully covered by FDIC or NCUSIF insurance.
The FDIC insurance limits are set forth in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. §1811, et seq., and in the related regulations found in Part 330 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations (12 C.F.R. Part 330). The NCUSIF insurance limits are set forth in the Federal Credit Union Act, 12 U.S.C. §1751, et seq., and in the related regulations found in Part 745 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations (12 C.F.R. Part 745). By participating in the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program, each Program Participant should obtain its own legal advice regarding these regulations and is responsible for its own compliance with them. CDs in amounts above applicable FDIC or NCUSIF insurance limits are not insured. In determining FDIC or NCUSIF insurance limits, Federal regulations provide that all amounts deposited by a depositor, including amounts deposited directly, through brokers or through other means in a financial institution regardless of the source, will be combined in determining the insurance limit.
Individual CDs will normally be limited by the Investment Adviser to amounts such that the principal and accrued interest will be within FDIC or NCUSIF insurance limits for the term of the CD. The Certificates of Deposit Investment Program may facilitate the simultaneous purchase of multiple CDs with the same maturity at multiple banks. The minimum CD purchase will be approximately $95,000. The minimum maturity is 60 days. Some financial institutions may impose further limits on the size of deposits.
By participating in the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program, each Program Participant authorizes the Investment Adviser to assume, unless the Program Participant informs the Investment Adviser to the contrary, that the Program Participant is entitled to the respective applicable limits of FDIC insurance and NCUSIF insurance on the aggregate of CDs purchased through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program with any FDIC- or NCUSIF-insured financial institution. The Investment Adviser will maintain records of all deposits made by a Program Participant through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program to assist the Program Participant in maintaining CDs within applicable insurance limits, but the Investment Adviser is not responsible for the effects on FDIC or NCUSIF insurance limits of deposits made directly by the Program Participant outside of the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program. The Investment Adviser will not monitor deposits made directly by the Program Participant outside of the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program or through other arrangements outside of the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program. It is the Program Participant’s sole responsibility to determine that deposits made directly by the Program Participant outside of the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program do not result in the CDs purchased by the Program Participant under the CD Program exceeding the insurance limits, and neither the Investment Adviser nor the Trust has any responsibility in that regard. The Investment Adviser advises each Program Participant against purchasing CDs issued by a financial institution with which the Program Participant has a depository relationship outside of the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program.
At the time of purchase, the Investment Adviser will require that an authorized representative of the Program Participant affirm that the purchase of a CD through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program will not put the Program Participant in a position of exceeding the applicable FDIC or NCUSIF insurance limits with respect to the issuing financial institution.
Criteria For Financial Institutions To Participate In The Certificates of Deposit Investment Program The Certificates of Deposit Investment Program guidelines are as follows. First, the Investment Adviser limits the eligibility of financial institutions that participate in the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program to those that are members of the FDIC or NCUSIF. Second, on a quarterly basis the Investment Adviser will review each financial
Illinois TrustInformation Statement — February 23, 2016
31
institution’s financial condition as reported to the FDIC or NCUSIF to determine that the financial institution meets all of the following criteria:
Has total assets of at least $50 million. Has total Tier 1 Capital of at least 6%. Has not had any major capital-related enforcement actions brought against it within the last 12 months.
Available Investments and Rates The Investment Adviser will maintain a computer system with a database on each financial institution that offers CDs through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program. Current rates will be entered into the data tables for each financial institution. This database will enable the Investment Adviser to access and quote rates on individual CDs and blended rates on groups of CDs issued by multiple financial institutions to facilitate the simultaneous investment by a Program Participant in multiple CDs based on a single blended rate.
At the request of a Program Participant, the Investment Adviser will timely advise the Program Participant of CDs available to satisfy the Program Participant’s investment requirements. Upon authorization by the Program Participant, the Investment Adviser will use its best efforts to obtain the most favorable execution and interest rate in connection with the purchase and sale of CDs selected by the Program Participant. The Program Participant has no obligation to purchase any CD recommended by the Investment Adviser.
As an additional limitation, the Investment Adviser will monitor on a continuous basis the total amount of CDs issued and outstanding by a financial institution through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program and similar programs administered or advised by the Investment Adviser in other states, and will not recommend a financial institution where the aggregate of such outstanding CDs exceeds 10% of the financial institution’s assets.
Program Termination The CD Agreement between each Program Participant and the Investment Adviser for placing CDs through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program may be terminated by the Program Participant or Investment Adviser at any time, without cause by notice in writing transmitted by first class mail or recognized courier service. Each Program Participant’s Agreement will terminate automatically and without notice in the event that the Investment Adviser shall cease to be the Administrator of the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program for the Trust or in the event that such Program Participant shall withdraw as a shareholder of the Illinois Portfolio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination shall not relieve the Program Participant of its obligation to pay any fee which has become payable to the Investment Adviser up to and including the date notification of termination has been received in writing by the counterparty.
Information Specific to the SAM Program
In the SAM Program, the Investment Adviser works closely with each Program Participant to create a comprehensive investment strategy and individual portfolio for the Program Participant. Each SAM account is created by the Investment Adviser following a review of budget and cash flow projections and schedules of the Program Participant. SAM accounts will be managed on a discretionary basis.
Entities participating in the SAM Program receive a cash flow review, investment policy review and assistance in determining acceptable benchmarks, in addition to other cash management services (during the term of the investment advisory agreement). SAM is designed to apply to all or a substantial portion of a Program Participant's cash flow on an annual basis.
Transactions. The Investment Adviser has full discretion in arranging for the execution of all security transactions in a SAM Program Separate Account on behalf of the Program Participant. Cash to facilitate Portfolio transactions is normally either redeemed from or reinvested through the Program Participant’s pre-designated Illinois Portfolio, IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ Class account using the Trust’s convenient and economic cash management tools. In arranging for security transactions, the Investment Adviser will give primary consideration to obtaining the most favorable price and efficient execution of transactions. Investment transactions can only be executed during normal operating hours.
Investments. The Investment Adviser will purchase investments for a Portfolio based upon specific instructions received from the Program Participant, or at the discretion of the Investment Adviser if the Program Participant has agreed to give
Illinois TrustInformation Statement — February 23, 2016
32
discretion. If expected withdrawals from the Separate Account are known, the Program Participant should provide a drawdown schedule to the Investment Adviser that will be used in managing investments to help assure adequate overall liquidity. Investment purchases for a Separate Account are settled by the Custodian by redeeming shares from the Program Participant’s pre-designated Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ account.
Withdrawals A Program Participant may initiate the sale of investments from its Separate Account by contacting the Investment Adviser directly. Funds made available from the sale of a security or securities will be invested in the Program Participant’s pre-designated Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ Class account. Sales made prior to maturity will be made at the current market price, which may be lower or higher than the investment’s book value.
Neither the Trust nor the Portfolios assume any responsibility for the fees paid to the Investment Adviser or the Custodian, except for costs associated with purchases and redemptions in the Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ account associated with the Program Participant’s SAM Program Separate Account. Program Participants are responsible for payment of any and all costs associated with the SAM Program.
Bond proceeds may not be invested in the SAM Program.
Information Specific to the BAM Program
Purpose The BAM Program and its associated services have been established by the Trust to provide local governments with comprehensive investment management, accounting and arbitrage rebate calculation services for proceeds of borrowings (not including tax or revenue anticipation note issues). Investors may also establish individual, professionally managed investment accounts (Individual Portfolio) by separate agreement with the Investment Adviser. Individual Portfolios are not assets of the Trust and the Trust assumes no liability for Individual Portfolios
Separate Accounts. By separate agreement with the Investment Adviser, an Investor has the option of investing all or a portion of its proceeds of their borrowings in one or more fixed rate investments separately from the Individual Portfolio’s investments, including collateralized certificates of deposit (“Collateralized CDs”), obligations of the United States of America or any of its agencies or instrumentalities (collectively, “Open Market Securities”), and certificates of deposit insured by the FDIC, purchased through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program. These Individual Portfolios will be managed by the Investment Adviser upon receipt of specific instructions from the Investor, and will be coordinated with the Investor’s Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ account. Securities in each Individual Portfolio will be held by the Custodian in a separate account in the Investor’s name, unless the Investor otherwise instructs the Trust prior to purchasing the securities that the Investor will utilize another custodian serving as trustee for a revenue bond issue issued by or on the behalf of the Investor (an “Individual Portfolio Custodian”). In order for the Investor to utilize its bond trustee as an Individual Portfolio Custodian, the bond trustee must meet certain minimum criteria.
Please refer to the section entitled “Certificates of Deposit Investment Program” below for detailed information regarding the custodial arrangements for CDs purchased through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program, which are intended to be fully insured by the FDIC or NCUSIF. Individual Portfolios are not part of the Trust estate, and an investor receives the sole benefit of such an Individual Portfolio. Earnings and proceeds from the maturity or sale of any investment in an Individual Portfolio will be deposited automatically into the Investor’s pre-designated Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ Class account.
Funds in the Individual Portfolios will be invested exclusively in investments that are permitted under terms of the applicable statutes. A public agency should discuss the characteristics of specific investments in an Individual Portfolio with the Investment Adviser and should confirm with its legal counsel the legality of those investments under the trust indenture, ordinance or resolution under which bonds are issued. Investments for Individual Portfolios may have a maturity in excess of 397 days (13 months).
Expenses of Individual Portfolios. Each Program Participant will be billed monthly a fee for investment management based on the agreed upon fees within their investment management contract based on the value as determined by the Investment Adviser of such assets in the Individual Portfolio. A Program Participant will also be billed a fee for custodial services in connection with these securities. In the event that a Program Participant elects to utilize its bond trustee as an Individual Portfolio Custodian, the fee for such services should be negotiated directly between the Program Participant and the Individual Portfolio Custodian. The Trust is not involved with such negotiations.

FDIC-Insured Certificates of Deposit. For services provided for Individual Portfolio investment constituting FDIC-insured CDs purchased through the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program, each Program Participant will pay to the Investment Adviser a management fee at a rate not greater than 0.25% per annum of the yield of each such CD. The Program Participant’s pre-designated Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ Class account will be charged for the management fee under either of the following arrangements at the election of the Program Participant: (i) the entire amount of the fee will be deducted from the Participant’s pre-designated Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ Class account upon settlement of the CD (refundable pro rata upon an early redemption), or (ii) the monthly amount of the management fee will be deducted from the Program Participant’s pre-designated Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ Class account after the close of each month. The Investment Adviser will pay from the management fee the brokerage and certain bank wire costs for the CDs and will reimburse the Trust for certain other costs associated with the Illinois Portfolio.
Further information on these fees is available from the Investment Adviser.
Neither the Trust nor the Illinois Portfolio of the Trust assumes any responsibility for the payment of fees to the Investment Adviser, the Custodian or an Individual Portfolio Custodian, except for costs associated with purchases and redemptions in the Program Participant’s pre-designated Illinois Portfolio IIIT Class or IPDLAF+ Class account.
Payment of any and all costs associated with the Certificates of Deposit Investment Program are in accordance with the terms of the separate agreement between the Program Participant and the Investment Adviser.
Rebate Calculation Reports. The Investment Adviser also may provide rebate calculation services to Investors in the Illinois Portfolio. These services are designed to assist Investors in complying with the rebate requirements of the Code and related Regulations, rulings, and procedures. The Investment Adviser will rely on information provided related to each bond issue, including the information supplied in the Confirmation Letter and account information compiled by the Investment Adviser.
Rebate Calculation Expenses. An Investor may request that program counsel furnish a formal legal opinion in conjunction with an arbitrage rebate calculation, yield reduction payment calculation or exception compliance report prepared by the Investment Adviser. If requested, the fee will be $1,000 for a formal legal opinion associated with any calculation or exception compliance report for a fixed rate bond issue all proceeds of which have been invested under the Illinois Portfolio during the entire period of the formal report or exception compliance report. For variable-rate bond issues and in other special circumstances there will be an additional fee.
Custodial Arrangements. U.S. Bank National Association, St. Paul, MN, is Custodian for the Portfolio and Individual Portfolios related to proceeds from general obligation bond issues. The Custodian holds all cash and securities of the Portfolio and the Individual Portfolios, except that certain securities owned by the Portfolio or Individual Portfolios and subject to repurchase agreements may be held by other custodians acting for the Trust or respective Individual Portfolio. The Custodian does not participate in determining the investment policies of the Trust or in investment decisions. The Investment Adviser may invest funds of the Portfolio or Individual Portfolios in the Custodian’s obligations and may buy or sell securities through the Custodian.
Tax Matters. Section 115(1) of the Code provides that gross income does not include income that is derived from the exercise of any essential government function and accrues to a state or any political subdivision thereof. The investment of the proceeds of a bond issue in order to receive some yield until such proceeds are spent on the governmental purpose of the bond issue should constitute the exercise of an essential governmental function for purposes of Section 115(1) of the Code. The Investors have an unrestricted right to receive in their own right (a) their proportionate share of the Portfolio’s income as it is earned, based on their ownership of the Shares, and (b) the income of the investments held in their Individual Portfolios under the provisions of the Illinois Portfolio. Consequently, both the Illinois Portfolio’s income and the income for the Individual Portfolios accrue to the Investors within the meaning of Section 115(1) of the Code.
Based on the foregoing, the income of the Illinois Portfolio and of an Individual Portfolio derived from the investment of the proceeds of an Investor’s bond issues is excludable from the gross income of the Investor.
A Confirmation Letter sent by the Investment Advisor will request certain information from an Investor with respect to the investment of proceeds of its bond issue in the Illinois Portfolio or an Individual Portfolio in connection with the requirements of the Code relating to tax exempt bonds (or tax advantaged bonds). The Investment Adviser relies on the accuracy of the information supplied by the Investor in the Confirmation Letter, and the Investment Adviser will make no independent determination of the information supplied in the Confirmation Letter. If the Investor supplies inaccurate information in the Confirmation Letter, or if the Investor fails to return a completed Confirmation Letter, then the services provided by the Investment Adviser may not be accurate.

COUNCIL LETTER CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 18, 2018
AGENDA ITEM: Approval of an Intergovernmental Grant Agreement (IGA) with the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) for a study in conjunction with the State of Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (IDCEO) Help Eliminate Lead Program (HELP) Grant.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Planning and Public Works and Planning Manager recommend the approval of the IGA with UIC in the amount of $179,450.
BACKGROUND: On May 7, 2018, the City Council approved a modified grant agreement with IDCEO, which provides additional funding for the UIC to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the most common lead remediation techniques and identify the parameters that are likely to influence this outcome (i.e., lead exposure reduction). For the purpose of this technical evaluation project, two broad classes of lead remediation techniques will be considered which will be applied to appropriately selected target areas.
The School of Public Health of the University of Illinois, Chicago (UIC/SPH) will assist the City of Galesburg and the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), Office of Community Development (OCD) in conducting a lead reduction program and assessing the effectiveness of the various lead source reduction measures.
The major scope of this comprehensive community service and technical evaluation project is the identification of the cost effectiveness and public health benefits of lead remediation methods applied to prevent and reduce elevated blood lead levels in at-risk populations of Galesburg. For this purpose, common lead remediation techniques such as lead-based paint hazard remediation and lead service line replacement will be assessed within a comprehensive framework, which will include all the major parameters that are likely to influence this outcome (i.e., lead exposure reduction). This approach will identify not only the most cost effective method but also the parameters that are likely to elevate the lead exposure risk (e.g., age of building).
The recommendations from this project will be used to develop current and long-term policies and priorities to address lead reduction funding decisions based on rational criteria. The final goal is to develop a replicable, sustainable, and transferable model for programs with similar missions.
BUDGET IMPACT: The City will receive grant funds from DCEO that will be utilized to cover one hundred percent of the expense of this agreement.

4.7. Timely Billing Required. Grantee must submit any payment request to Grantor within thirty (30) days of the end of the quarter, unless another billing schedule is specified in PART TWO or PART THREE.

EXHIBIT A
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Grantee must complete the Grant Activities described on this Exhibit A, the Deliverables and Milestones listed on Exhibit B and the Performance Measures listed on Exhibit E within the term of this Agreement, as provided in paragraph 1.4, herein. For this purpose the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public health will receive the amount of $179,450.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The adverse health effects of lead exposure are well documented in the scientific literature especially in the case of exposed children. According to the Illinois Department of Public Health, 2015 Annual Lead‐Surveillance Report, the primary source of lead poisoning is from lead‐based paint in homes. However, there are other sources which include dust/soil, water, consumer products, and airborne emissions. This study will focus on lead‐based paint hazard reduction and reduction of lead plumbing and fixtures in households. The UIC/SPH team will assist the City of Galesburg and the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), Office of Community Development (OCD) in conducting a lead reduction program and assessing the effectiveness of the various lead source reduction measures. The City of Galesburg, IL is a hard hit community since: “Currently, 2,064 children under age six (6) live in the target area. Of the 445 children tested for elevated blood lead levels, 64 (or 14.4%) had an elevated blood lead level of at least 5 μg/dL” (source: Illinois Department of Public Health – Illinois Lead Program: 2015 Annual Surveillance Report). The major contribution of the UIC/SPH team is to perform a comprehensive assessment of the most common lead remediation techniques and identify the parameters that are likely to influence this outcome (i.e., lead exposure reduction). For the purpose of this technical evaluation project, two broad classes of lead remediation techniques will be considered which will be applied to appropriately selected target areas. Other major components of this collaboration are:
Data collection (quality control, storage, and management) and creation of a comprehensive database.
IRB filing.
A technical (lead reduction) evaluation based on geospatial, socioeconomic, and environmental data (e.g., water lead levels at the tap, blood levels, etc.). An basic component of this evaluation is the cost effectiveness of the applied lead reduction techniques.
Survey design for participants in this program.
A community outreach educational intervention related to lead exposure and its risks. A detailed narrative of the overall lead remediation project is presented in the DCEO/OCD Help Abstract that follows: The Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), Office of Community Development (OCD) is proposing to expand, enhance, and strengthen its efforts to improve housing throughout the state of Illinois through the implementation of the Help Eliminate Lead Program (HELP). The mission of the program is to improve the health and well‐being of Illinois citizens, especially vulnerable populations such as children under the age of 6 and pregnant women, by promoting safe environments through a comprehensive lead hazard reduction and control program which includes; encouraging Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) lead certification and training, public education, public outreach, and statewide and local partnerships. All remediation, mitigation and/or abatement activities shall be done in a way that will not endanger the occupants, including work area isolation, preparation and containment, safe work practices, and safe removal of all potentially harmful materials (410 ILCS 45/11) (77 Ill. Adm. Code 845.265(a)). Initially, DCEO/OCD is proposing to conduct a pilot project throughout the City of Galesburg for $500,000.00 to assist the State in providing a comprehensive lead hazard control project services to low‐income families who occupy substandard, pre‐1978 single family‐ owner occupied residences in Galesburg, IL located in Knox County.
Agreement No: 18‐IGAUIC‐HELP
City of Galesburg & UIC‐SPH INTER‐GOVERNMENTAL GRANT AGREEMENT
Page 26 of 51
The program emphasizes the dual goal of serving low‐to‐moderate income households and reducing lead hazards. In this endeavor, DCEO has established a maximum or limitation of funds that may be expended at $20,000.00 of CDBG funds per household. The Western Illinois Regional Council will administer the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Help Eliminate Lead Program (HELP) on a contractual basis for the City of Galesburg, who is the grantee for the HELP program. HELP is a comprehensive LHC program providing services to low‐income families residing in substandard pre‐1978 privately‐owned housing. HELP is designed to improve the health and well‐being of Illinois residents, especially vulnerable populations such as children under age six, by promoting safe and healthy home environments through comprehensive home‐based intervention programs, lead certification and regulations, public education, outreach, and statewide partnerships. Reducing lead exposure in the households is one of the main focuses of the program. The WIRC will coordinate with the City of Galesburg and Knox County Health Department (KCHD), in the oversight of the program, at the local level. The coordinated effort will address each stage of the process, from improved preventative efforts in both the environment and homes, to improved clinical care and support systems for children with EBLs. The main emphasis of WIRC’s involvement will be to perform the various aspects of the construction process for the lead hazard reduction work on the homes. The target area for this program will be the entire City of Galesburg. At the epicenter of the elevated lead problem in Illinois is the City of Galesburg. Currently, 2,064 children under age six (6) live in the target area. Of the 445 children tested for elevated blood lead levels, 64 (or 14.4%) had an elevated blood lead level of at least 5 μg/dL (Illinois Department of Public Health – Illinois Lead Program: 2015 Annual Surveillance Report). The Illinois IEPA will provide funding up to a total of $4,000,000 in FY 2017 and FY 2018 to the City of Galesburg. The City will apply said funds to lead service line replacements which began in May of 2017 and will be completed by November 2018. According to IEPA, “complete replacement of lead service lines from the water main to the home will substantially reduce the risk of lead leaching, “ and “also aid in risk reduction resulting from distribution system disturbances of future infrastructure improvement involving water main repair/replacement where the service line must be disturbed.” With these benefits in mind, the project will focus on replacing approximately 1,000 lead service lines and improve water quality for approximately 1000 homes in the community. The HELP Program, in conjunction with the City of Galesburg and other partners, will be coordinating programs with one another to reduce lead poisoning in Galesburg’s children both outside and inside the homes.
Scope of Work Summary
Lead exposure reduction project
The School of Public Health of the University of Illinois, Chicago (UIC/SPH) will assist the City of Galesburg and the Illinois
Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), Office of Community Development (OCD) in conducting a
lead reduction program and assessing the effectiveness of the various lead source reduction measures.
The major scope of this comprehensive community service and technical evaluation project is the identification of the cost
effectiveness and public health benefits of lead remediation methods applied to prevent and reduce elevated blood lead
levels in at‐risk populations of Galesburg. For this purpose, common lead remediation techniques such as lead‐based paint
hazard remediation and lead service line replacement will be assessed within a comprehensive framework, which will
include all the major parameters that are likely to influence this outcome (i.e., lead exposure reduction). This approach
will identify not only the most cost effective method but also the parameters that are likely to elevate the lead exposure risk
(e.g., age of building).
The recommendations from this project will be used to develop current and long‐term policies and priorities to address
lead reduction funding decisions based on rational criteria. The final goal is to develop a replicable, sustainable, and
transferable model for programs with similar missions.

COUNCIL LETTER CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 18, 2017
AGENDA ITEM: Approve quote for new MSA cylinders for SCBA’s.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Fire Chief, and Purchasing Agent recommend that the City Council approve a quote submitted by Grainger in the amount of $8,798.94 for the purchase of six MSA SCBA cylinders.
BACKGROUND: The Galesburg Fire Department utilizes both MSA and Scott SCBA’s (self-contained breathing apparatus) as a normal part of their operations. The cylinders must be replaced after fifteen years of service life as per the Department of Transportation. Currently, there is a group of MSA SCBA’s in need of replacement. The Fire Department has planned and budgeted for the replacement of these cylinders.
For both types of these tanks, the manufacturer makes the tanks available to specific vendors in regions. For Scott SCBA’s we only receive quotes from MES. For the MSA SCBA’s we only receive quotes from Grainger. This case would only change if the manufacturer would have a different vendor supply the product.
A quote request was presented to Grainger for supplying six MSA SCBA’s to the City. Grainger responded with a quoted price in the amount of $8,798.94. This pricing is within the anticipated cost expected by the Fire Department for this purchase.
BUDGET IMPACT: There are sufficient funds in the Fire Department budget for this purchase.

COUNCIL LETTER CITY OF GALESBURG
MAY 21, 2018
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance Establishing the City of Galesburg Rental Licensing Program.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Planning and Public Works, Housing Coordinator and Fire Chief recommend approval of the Ordinance establishing the City of Galesburg Rental Licensing Program.
BACKGROUND: A comprehensive evaluation of the Rental Inspection and Licensing program was conducted by Planning staff. The first step of this evaluation included reviewing the current code, researching housing codes from other communities, and gathering input from city staff including Administration, Inspections, and Fire on areas where changes were needed. Based on this input, draft ordinance revisions were developed. The next step included forming an advisory committee, which included landlords, tenants, insurance agents, a realtor, a Council member, and various City staff including the Fire Marshall, Fire Chief, City Manager, City Attorney, and the Mayor. The advisory committee met four times to thoroughly review the proposed revisions. The first session explained the code and the process, the second and third sessions allowed feedback and the fourth presented modifications based upon their suggestions. The committee was comprised of 13 community members and additional city staff and administration members.
The current Rental Housing Inspection Ordinance, outside of the registration fee, was last updated in 1998 and 1999. Presently, all rental units must register each year for a $15 per unit fee. Currently under the Department of Planning and Public Works, all new rental units are being inspected upon initial registration and all other rentals are inspected on a complaint basis.
This proposed ordinance provides the means to actively inspect rental units outside of tenant complaints. Tenants often refrain from filing a complaint for fear of eviction despite an unsafe living environment. Many communities across the nation and the State of Illinois are moving toward a proactive rental inspection process. This movement is the result of research, which demonstrates that safe housing improves the health and quality of life for residents, and prevents tragic deaths.
The Rental Inspection Ordinance provides changes to work in harmony with a proactive inspection program. The highlights of the proposed revisions include the following:
All rental units will be inspected either by City staff or by self-inspection once every fiveyears.
All self-inspection qualified units, are still subject to complaint based and/or randominspections. Rental units that have uncorrected violations or are non-compliant do notqualify for self-inspection.
The Housing Code Minimum standards will be utilized as the basis for the rentalinspections.
Rental Registrations will be revised to Rental Licensure. If Landlords are unresponsive tocorrecting deficiencies they will not be renewed when the license comes up for the annual
18-1009

renewal unless the deficiencies are corrected or an agreed upon corrective action plan is in place.
Rental units which will be vacant for more an annual renewal period will not be requiredto be licensed if the owner submits a sworn statement affirming that fact.
The License fee will stay at $15 per rental unit, which is the same that it has been for thelast eight years.
This ordinance proposes adding a purpose in harmony with the health and safety of all city residents, clarifying definitions and what constitutes a rental property, standardizing time elements in accountability and enforcement, converting rental registration to a rental license, adding an inspection classification system, which includes self-inspections and random inspections by City Inspectors, and removing the long inactive Housing Board of Appeals. A work session was held with the City Council on April 30, 2018 to preview the City’s five year housing plan and to obtain feedback from Council members on proposed changes to the Rental Licensing Ordinance.

COUNCIL LETTER CITY OF GALESBURG
MAY 21, 2018
AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance Establishing Minimum Housing Standards.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Planning and Public Works, Housing Coordinator and Fire Chief recommend approval of the Ordinance Establishing Minimum Housing Standards.
BACKGROUND: The Housing Minimum Standards for the City of Galesburg have not been updated since 1969. Since that time fire prevention and community practices have changed to improve safety, health and basic quality of life standards for residents. Research has shown that people today have 3 to 4 minutes to escape a dwelling before fire flash over occurs, whereas this was 17 minutes 40 years ago. This is due to the overwhelming use of synthetic materials used in home furniture and furnishings today.
Research was conducted on housing codes from other communities, input was received from staff, Administration and the Fire Department. Suggested changes were presented and reviewed through a series of meetings with the Rental Advisory Committee, which was comprised of tenants, landlords, insurance agents, Knox County Housing Authority and Carver Center. Feedback from the committee was incorporated into the attached ordinance.
This ordinance proposes definition changes for safety exits, standardizing the time elements in accountability and enforcement, simplifying the explanations for lighting, ventilation and window needs, and providing adequate fire safety exits for all dwellings. Minimum space requirements in Section 150.168 shall only be required of new or modified dwellings.
The proposed Housing Minimum Standards ordinance would apply to all owner occupied and rental dwellings in the City of Galesburg. A work session was held with the City Council on April 30, 2018 to preview the City’s five year housing plan and to obtain feedback from Council members on proposed changes to the Minimum Housing Standards Ordinance.
BUDGET IMPACT: None.

AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance vacating an alley adjacent to Water Street between West Street and Cedar Street
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager and Director of Planning and Public Works recommend approval of an ordinance vacating an alley adjacent to Water Street between West Street and Cedar Street, as shown in the attached exhibits, to the adjoining land owners, Bonnie Harris, Enrique Guel, and Robert and Tammy Scott.
BACKGROUND: The City was petitioned by Bonnie Harris to vacate the alley. The alley is an unimproved alley that does not serve any public purpose. Over the years, the alley has been used by the property owner on the east side of the alley as off-street parking since the alley is a dead end and there is no through traffic in the alley. Upon review by Engineering, it was noted that they alley does not serve any public purpose and was recommended that the City vacate the alley. The alley is 20 feet wide with 14 feet of the alley currently being used for parking for the property owner to the east and the remaining 6 feet of the alley being used by a fence by the property owner to the west. It is proposed to vacate the west 6 feet of the alley to the property owner on the west and the east 14 feet of the alley to the property owner on the east. All three adjoining property owners have been notified of the proposed vacation and city staff have received no objections to the proposed vacation.
BUDGET IMPACT: None.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: [email protected]
121 WOMEN PILOTS SET TO COMPETE IN 42ND ANNUAL AIR RACE CLASSIC 56 teams will fly across the country this June in historic airplane race
April 5, 2018 - The field is set for the 42nd Air Race Classic (ARC), the annual all-women cross-country airplane race. Fifty-six teams, consisting of 121 women pilots from across the country and around the world, will take off at 8 a.m. Tuesday, June 19 from Sweetwater, Texas, for a 2,656-mile sprint across the United States that ends Friday, June 22 in Fryeburg, Maine.
This year, the ARC counts an aviation celebrity among the racers: U.S. national aerobatic;s champion Debby Rihn-Harvey.
The oldest race of its kind in the nation, the Air Race Classic traces its roots to the 1929 Women's Air Derby, in which Amelia Earhart and 19 other daring female pilots raced from Santa Monica, California, to Cleveland, Ohio. That contest, aka the Powder Puff Derby, marked the beginning of women's air racing in the United States. Today, the ARC is the epicenter of women's air racing, the ultimate test of piloting skill and aviation decision-making for female pilots of all ages and from all walks of life.
"The ARC Board of Directors and volunteers have been hard at work preparing for our 42nd race," said Air Race Classic President Lara Gaerte. "We look forward to welcoming back veteran racers and meeting new competitors at this year's Start."
This year's course will take racers through 15 states, from the West Texas flatlands, where the Women Airforce Service Pilots trained for military service during World War II, through the American heartland to the pine forests of Maine. Teams will depart beginning at 8 a.m. June 19 from historic Avenger Field, taking off one after another, 30 seconds apart. From there, the field will spread out as faster planes move to the head of the pack.
At each of the eight intermediate stops - Alva, Oklahoma; Beatrice, Nebraska; Faribault, Minnesota; Galesburg, Illinois; Auburn, Indiana; Cadillac, Michigan; Newark, Ohio; and Penn Yan, New York - teams will execute high-speed flybys over a timing line as they race against the clock. Faster planes may cover the course in only two days; slower teams may not arrive at the Terminus, Eastern Slopes Regional Airport, until moments before the arrival deadline at 5 p.m. on June 22.
The 56 teams of two or three pilots will have four days to complete the course, flying normally aspirated, piston-powered airplanes in visual flight conditions during daylight hours. Pilots and copilots must have at least a Private pilot certificate and a minimum of 100 hours as pilot-in-command in order to qualify for the race; one of them must have at least 500 hours as pilot-in-command or a current instrument rating. If they wish, the pilot and copilot may bring along a teammate, who must hold at least a student pilot certificate.
Eighteen colleges or universities are fielding teams: Auburn University, California Aeronautical University, Delaware State University, Ecole Nationale d' Mrotechnique (Quebec), Embry-Riddle Aeronautical UniversityDaytona, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Prescott, Indiana State University, Jacksonville University, Kent State University, Lewis University, Liberty University Middle Tennessee State University, Purdue University, Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, The Ohio State University, University of Dubuque, University of North Dakota and Western Michigan University. CAU, Delaware State, ENA and Dubuque are participating for the first time.
This year's racers hail from 35 states and five foreign countries: Australia, Canada, Colombia, Kenya and New Zealand.
For some competitors, the Air Race Classic is a family affair. This year's field includes two multi-generational teams, with mothers and daughters racing together.
Because each plane receives a unique handicap, teams are racing against their own best time, not against one another. This creates a level playing field, so slower planes can compete against faster aircraft on an equal basis. Teams strategize to play the elements, holding out for better weather or seeking more favorable winds, to beat their handicap by the greatest margin.
Official standings aren't determined until after the last team has crossed the finish line -the last arrival at the Terminus may, in fact, be the winner!
ABOUT THE AIR RACE CLASSIC
Air Race Classic Inc. is an all-volunteer, nonprofit 501(c)3 organization with a mission of encouraging and educating current and future female pilots, increasing public awareness of general aviation, demonstrating women's roles in aviation, and preserving and promoting the tradition of pioneering women in aviation.

COUNCIL LETTER CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 18, 2018
AGENDA ITEM: Purchase of direct burial armored fiber optic cable for connection to the Hawthorne water tower.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Planning and Public Works, Director of Finance and Information Systems, Information Systems Supervisor, and Purchasing Agent recommend that the City Council waive normal purchasing polices and approve this purchase from Springfield Electric in the amount of $12,897.93.
BACKGROUND: Currently, the Hawthorne water tower is the last water tower that does not have a direct fiber connection to the City Hall network. The Fourth St. and Seminary St. towers have been connected over the last five years. This data connection provides a more reliable and higher speed control of the water towers, and going forward, the ability to add security cameras and other physical security features. In the future, this fiber could also provide a data backbone for wireless water meter technologies.
Conduit has been installed in multiple phases over the last four years as follows: 1) As part of the Bickerdyke bridge project 2) As part of the Seminary Street reconstruction 3) and the Hawthorne center project. We now have a complete conduit path from City Hall to the Hawthorne tower. Staff’s intention is to purchase the fiber optic cable and have it pulled, connected and tested by city personnel.
Multiple strand count options were requested in the quotes to assist in determining the amount of fiber that could be put along Seminary Street and includes providing extra capacity for other fiber initiatives along this route in the future. The request is to purchase 9000’ of 144 strand fiber to cover the main route between City Hall and the Hawthorne center and 3600’ of 48 strand fiber which will be used from Seminary Street and Walsh Street to the Hawthorne water tower.
Although this would normally be a bid process, Information Technology has received multiple quotes from vendors for this project. Purchasing and Information Technology staff are confident that a broad spectrum of potential vendors were reached and that there was an adequate response to ensure the City is receiving fair pricing for this purchase.
BUDGET IMPACT: Purchase of this fiber will be split 50% between the Water Fund and the MIS division.

CITY OF GALESBURG COUNCIL LETTER
JUNE 18, 2018
AGENDA ITEM: Lease agreements with Community Power Group for Community Solar Gardens to be located at the Logistics Park property.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, the Director of Planning and Public Works, and the Director of Parks and Recreation recommend approval of the proposed leases with Community Power Group (CPG) in order to allow for the development of Community Solar Gardens.
BACKGROUND: On February 26, 2018, the City Council approved a letter of intent with CPG to develop three community solar gardens, two of which to be located at the Logistics Park and one to be located at the Airport as well as two distributed generation solar arrays at the water treatment plant in Oquawka. CPG is still in the process of configuring the solar arrays and determining the land areas that will be used in Oquawka, but are ready to move forward with the three community solar garden leases for the sites located in Galesburg. However, there are some additional clearances required by IDOT for the airport site so it is not ready to move forward yet. These lease agreements will provide an initial annual lease amount of $1,200 per acre leased for each of the three locations with a 1.5% escalator per year. The proposed lease amount is almost five times more rent than the current rent amounts. It is estimated that approximately 17.5 acres per site will be leased at each location with the final acreage being determined after the detailed design has been completed. Once the design has been completed, a legal description for the property leased will be developed and amended to this agreement. CPG needs the City to execute the leases in order to meet the State’s readiness requirements to be considered for selection.
The term of leases shall be 25 years with up to two five year extensions upon mutual agreement of the parties. CPG will have up to three years from the effective date of the lease agreement to start installation work, if not, then the City has the right to terminate the agreement. CPG plans to install two 2.0 megawatt solar arrays on the proposed leased property (one per site). The solar arrays will be Community Solar Gardens with up to 40 percent of the power produced being sold back to the City of Galesburg for municipal use and the balance being sold to residents in the local community at a reduced rate. A power purchase agreement will be presented to the City in the near future which will lock in the reduced rate the City will receive for power for the term of the lease.
Both sites will be fenced off and will be secure. CPG will be responsible for maintenance of the leased areas and will provide insurance for the areas leased. They will also be responsible for all personal and real property taxes associated with the lease.
The leases provide for CPG to remove the facility at the end of the lease term within 180 days and will provide a surety bond to the City to cover the cost to remove the facility should CPG fail to do so in accordance with the terms of the lease.

The termination of this Lease shall be the twenty-fifth (25th) anniversary of the Operating Rent Commencement Date and, upon mutual agreement of the Parties, shall automatically extend for up to two (2) consecutive periods of five (5) years each, unless earlier terminated in accordance herein.
A.5. Lessor Right to Terminate If, within three (3) years from the Effective Date, Lessee fails to start Installation Work, or becomes inactive in pursuing related permits or interconnection agreements related to the Facility, Lessor may terminate this Agreement by delivering notice to Lessee of its intention to terminate this Agreement, and the Agreement shall terminate twenty-one (21) days after Lessee’s receipt of such notice. However, if Lessee is active in pursuing related permits or interconnection agreements, then Lessee shall have the right to buy up to two (2) additional years to start construction (the Extended Period) at a rate equal to 10% of the first years rent payment. Such amount is payable in monthly installments during the Extended Period. In the event of termination, in accordance with Section H, neither Party shall have any further liability to the other, provided that: (i) Lessee, at its expense, shall remove any equipment or materials which Lessee has placed on the Premises; (ii) Lessee, at its expense, shall restore any portions of the Premises disturbed by Lessee to their pre-existing condition pursuant to Section A.6 of this Agreement; (iii) the Parties shall not be released from any payment or other obligations arising under this Agreement prior to the delivery of the notice, in accordance with Section K.1.
A.6. Removal of Facility at End of Term Unless Lessor elects to purchase the Facility pursuant to Section A.7, Lessee shall, within one-hundred and eighty (180) days following the end of the Term, and at Lessee’s cost and expense, be required to decommission, deconstruct, dismantle and remove the Facility from the Premises, the completion of which shall consititute the Termination Date. During such decommissioning period, Lessee, its Affiliates and any employees, agents, representatives, contractors, subcontractors and other designees of any of the foregoing and any local electric utility personnel shall continue to have access to the Premises and the Facility as otherwise provided in this Lease. Monthly lease payments will continue until the Decommissioning Rent Termination Date. Prior to the Construction Rent period Lessor and Lessee shall agree to a surety mechanism for the removal of the facility.
A.7. Purchase Option Upon Expiration The Lessor may purchase the Facility upon the expiration of this Agreement, if the Agreement is still in effect on such date, at the Facility's fair market value on an installed and running, or going-concern basis. The Lessee shall notify the Lessor of the right to exercise this purchase option in writing, not less than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the expiration date. The Lessor shall provide written notice to Lessee of the Lessor’s intent to exercise this purchase option, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration date or ten (10) business days following determination of Fair Market value, whichever is later (or else the option shall automatically expire) (“Exercise Notice at Term Expiration”).
A.8. Access to Premises Lessor shall provide Lessee with access to the Premises as reasonably necessary to allow Lessee to develop, construct, own, operate and maintain the Facility as contemplated herein, including ingress and egress rights to the Premises for Lessee, its Affiliates and any employees, agents, representatives, subcontractors, Lenders, investors, potential Lenders or potential investors, regulators and other designees of any of the foregoing and any local electric utility personnel, and access to the Facility to interconnect the Facility with the local electrical grid. Lessor grants Lessee all ingress and egress rights of way to the premises as necessary for the design, construction, operation and maintenance of the Facility during the Term of the Lease.

Lessor will identify specific areas for storage, staging, and parking use by the Lessee and its Affiliates. Lessor and its authorized representatives shall at all times have access to, and the right to observe, the development, construction, ownership, operation and maintenance of the Facility on the Premises, subject to compliance with Lessee’s safety rules. However, Lessor shall retain the right to identify alternative areas on property it owns or controls to be used by Lessee for the aforementioned purposes in the event the specific location with respect to Lessee’s activities interferes with Lessor’s operation of its own business.

A.9. Facility and Output Ownership Lessor acknowledges and agrees that (i) Lessee or one of its Affiliates is and shall be the exclusive owner and operator of the Facility, (ii) all permits, approvals, interconnection agreements, equipment, warrantees, guarantees, service agreements, facilities and other contracts comprising the Facility shall remain the personal property of Lessee and shall not become fixtures, notwithstanding the manner in which the Facility is or may be mounted on, adhered to or attached to the Premises or structures, buildings and fixtures on the Premises, and (iii) Lessor shall have no right, title or interest in any Facility or any component thereof, notwithstanding that any such Facility may be mounted on, adhered to, or attached to the Premises or structures, buildings and fixtures on the Premises, except as otherwise provided herein. As between Lessor and Lessee, Lessor acknowledges that Lessee or one of its Affiliates is and shall be the exclusive owner of all Energy output of the Facility, of all Environmental Attributes related to the Facility and of any other tax or financial incentives related to the Facility. Without the express written consent of Lessee, Lessor shall not make or publish any public statement or notice suggesting ownership of such Energy output, Environmental Attributes or tax or financial incentives.
A.10. Insurance Lessee’s liability insurance shall be purchased and maintained by the Lessee to protect him from claims for damages because of bodily injury, including death, and from claims for damages, other than to the work itself, to property which may arise out of or result from the Lessee’s operation under this Agreement, whether such operation be by himself or by any or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them. The insurance shall name the Lessor as an additional insured and shall be written for not less than $500,000 each person, $1,000,000 each occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate for bodily injury, and $500,000 each occurrence, $1,000,000 aggregate for property damage, or such amount as required by law, whichever is greater, and shall include contractual liability applicable to the Lessee’s obligations. Lessee shall supply Lessor with an annual certificate of insurance upon renewal. The provisions of this Lease shall not be construed so as to relieve any insurer of its obligation to pay any insurance proceeds in accordance with the terms and conditions of valid and collectible insurance policies. The liability of the Parties hereunder shall not be limited or reduced by insurance.
A.11. Taxes Lessee shall pay any personal and real property taxes, possessory interest taxes, business or license taxes or fees, service payments in lieu of such taxes or fees, annual or periodic license or use fees, excises, assessments, bonds, levies, fees or charges of any kind which are assessed, levied, charged, confirmed, or imposed by any public authority due to Lessee’s occupancy and use of the Premises (or any portion or component thereof). Lessor pays all real and personal property taxes on the Premises excepting only real and personal property taxes charged against the Facility. Any taxes, fees, service payments, excises, assessments, bonds, levies, fees or charges of any kind which are adopted by any public authority after the date hereof shall be paid by the party responsible for creating the expense.

B.4. Lessor’s Title to Premises Lessor represents, warrants and covenants that Lessor has lawful title to (or a valid leasehold interest in) the Premises and that Lessee shall have quiet and peaceful possession of the Premises in accordance with this Lease, free from any claim of any Person of superior title thereto, without hinderance to or interference with or molestation of Lessee’s quiet enjoyment thereof, throughout the Term of this Lease. Lessor shall not sell, lease, assign, mortgage, pledge or otherwise alienate or encumber the Premises unless Lessor shall
Proprietary and Confidential 4
have given Lessee at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice thereof, which notice shall identify the transferee, the Premises to be so transferred and the proposed date of transfer. Lessor agrees that this Lease shall run with the Premises and survive any such transfer of any of the Premises. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lessor agrees that it shall cause any purchaser, lessee, assignee, mortgagee, pledge or party to whom a lien has been granted to execute and deliver to Lessee a document in form and substance satisfactory to Lessee, pursuant to which such party (i) acknowledges and consents to the Lessee’s rights in the Premises as set forth herein, including an acknowledgement by the transferee that it has no interest in the Facility, the Energy output, the Environmental Attributes or any other tax or financial incentive relating thereto, and shall not gain any interest in any of the foregoing by virtue of the Lessor’s transfer, and (ii) expressly subordinates any lien it may have in and to any of the foregoing to Lessee’s rights and interests hereunder.

Lessor will not conduct activities on, in, under, over or about the Premises, the Facility or any portion thereof that have a reasonable likelihood of causing damage, impairment or otherwise adversely affecting the Facility. To the extent practicable, Lessor shall permit Lessee to maintain reasonable and appropriate security measures on the Premises to prevent Lessor’s employees, invitees, agents and representatives, any third parties or animals, from having access to the Premises or the Facility, and to prevent any theft, vandalism or other actions that have a reasonable likelihood of causing damage, impairment or otherwise adversely affecting the Facility.
B.6. Insolation Lessor acknowledges and agrees that access to sunlight (“insolation”) is essential to the value to Lessee of the leasehold interest granted hereunder and is a material inducement to Lessee in entering into this Lease. Accordingly, Lessor shall not permit any interference with insolation on and at the Premises or any other real property owned by, leased to or from, or otherwise controlled by Lessor that may reasonably be considered to adversely affect the Facility. In the Event of any obstruction that interferes with insolation is proposed to be erected or installed on property other than the Premises Lessor shall promptly deliver to Lessee copies of any notice relating thereto received by Lessor, and Lessee shall have the right to intervene or to direct Lessor to intervene in any proceeding and to contest the installation or erection of such obstruction. In the event such obstruction is installed, (a) Lessee shall have the right to remove the Facility from the Premises and (b) Lessor shall be liable for damages in accordance with Section H. However, the maintenance of the property upon which the equipment is located including the control of the growth of foliage is the responsibility of the Lessee.
B.7. Hazardous Materials To the best of Lessor’s knowledge, there are no hazardous, toxic or dangerous substances, chemicals, materials or wastes present on, in, under or over the Premises in violation of any Applicable Law or that might otherwise impair Lessee’s ability to utilize the Premises as contemplated by this Lease. Lessor shall not introduce or use any hazardous, toxic or dangerous substances, chemicals, materials or wastes on, in, under or over the Premises in violation of any Applicable Law. If Lessor becomes aware of any hazardous, toxic or dangerous substances, chemicals, materials or wastes present on, in, under or over the Premises, Lessor shall promptly notify Lessee of the type and location of such substances, chemicals, materials or wastes in writing. Lessor agrees to assume full responsibility for and shall protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lessee and its Indemnitees against, any loss, costs, damages, liability or cleanup obligations arising out of (i) any pre-existing conditions caused as a result of Hazardous Materials on, in, under or over the Premises, and (ii) any loss, costs, damages, liability or cleanup obligations arising as a result of actions or inactions on the part of Lessor on or after the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification by Lessor set forth herein shall not apply in instances where the loss, costs, damages, liability or cleanup arises as a result of actions of Lessee or those acting for or on behalf of Lessee.

D. LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY
D.1. Lessee Indemnity Lessee shall defend, indemnify, protect and hold harmless Lessor, and its partners, members, affiliates, agents, directors, shareholders, employees, representatives, successors, assigns, contractors or anyone claiming under Lessor (collectively, including Lessor, the “Lessor Parties”) from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, “Claims”) suffered or incurred by any of the Lessor Parties as a result of or arising out of: (a) any acts, omissions or negligence of Lessee, its partners, members, affiliates, agents, directors, shareholders, employees, representatives, successors, assigns, contractors or anyone claiming under Lessee (collectively, including Lessee, the “Lessee Parties”) in connection with Lessee Parties’ uses of or operations on the Premises, except to the extent any such Claim is caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of a Lessor Party, or (b) a breach of this Lease by Lessee that remains uncured after any applicable notice and cure period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lessor Parties hereby waive any Claims against the Lessee Parties for damage or injury suffered by the Lessor Parties arising as a result of any audible or electromagnetic noise, electrical interference and radio frequency interference attributable to the Lessee Parties’ operations on the Premises or any other property, provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to release Lessee from its obligation to defend, indemnify, protect and hold harmless the Lessor Parties from third party claims under the first sentence of this Section D.1. The Lessee Parties shall not be liable for losses of rent, business opportunities, profits or any other consequential damages that may result from the conduct of Lessee Parties’ uses of or operations on the Premises.
D.2. Indemnity by Lessor. Lessor shall defend, indemnify, protect and hold harmless the Lessee Parties from and against any and all Claims suffered or incurred by any of the Lessee Parties as a result of or arising out of: (a) any acts, omissions or negligence of any of the Lessor Parties in connection with Lessor Parties’ uses of or operations on the Premises, except to the extent any such Claim is caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of a Lessee Party, or (b) a breach of this Lease by Lessor that remains uncured after any applicable notice and cure period.
D.3. No Consequential Damages. Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, neither Lessee nor Lessor shall be liable to the other for incidental, consequential, special, punitive or indirect damages, including without limitation, loss of use, loss of profits, cost of capital or increased operating costs, arising out of this Lease whether by reason of contract, indemnity, strict liability, negligence, intentional conduct, breach of warranty or from breach of this Lease. The foregoing provision shall not prohibit Lessee or Lessor from seeking and obtaining general contract damages for a breach of this Lease.
E. CASUALTY OR CONDEMNATION, FORCE MAJEURE
E.1. In the event the Premises shall be so damaged or destroyed so as to make the use of the Premises impractical as determined by Lessee, then Lessee may elect to terminate this Lease on not less than twenty (20) days’ prior notice to Lessor, effective as of a date specified in such notice. If Lessee does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to the previous sentence, Lessor shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to repair the damage to the Premises and return the Premises to its condition prior to such damage or destruction; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in this Lease (including Section A.10 and D.2), Lessor shall in no event be
Proprietary and Confidential 6
required to repair, replace or restore any property of Lessee comprising part of the Facility, which replacement or restoration shall be Lessee’s responsibility. In the event of an award related to eminent domain or condemnation of all or part of the Premises, each Party shall be entitled to take from such an award that portion as allowed by Applicable Law for its respective property interest appropriated as well as any damages suffered thereby.
E.2. To the extent either Party is prevented by Force Majeure from carrying out, in whole or part, its obligations under this Lease and such Party (the “Claiming Party”) gives notice and details of the Force Majeure to the other Party as soon as practicable (and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the Force Majeure first prevents performance by the Claiming Party), then the Claiming Party will be excused from the performance of its obligations under this Lease (other than the obligation to make payments then due, and except as otherwise provided in Section A.10 and D.2). The Claiming Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate or avoid the Force Majeure and resume performing its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that neither Party is required to settle any strikes, lockouts or similar disputes except on terms acceptable to such Party, in its sole discretion. The non-Claiming Party will not be required to perform or resume performance of its obligations to the Claiming Party corresponding to the obligations of the Claiming Party excused by Force Majeure (other than the obligation to make payments then due, and except as otherwise provided in Section A.10 and D.2).
E.3. Force Majeure If performance of this Lease or of any obligation hereunder is prevented or substantially restricted or interfered with by reason of an event of Force Majeure (defined below), the affected Party, upon giving notice to the other Party, shall be excused from such performance to the extent of and for the duration of such prevention, restriction or interference. The affected Party shall use its reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of nonperformance and shall continue performance as soon as such causes are removed. “Force Majeure” means: fire, earthquake, flood, tornado or other acts of God and natural disasters; strikes or labor disputes; war, civil strife or other violence; any law, order, proclamation, regulation, ordinance, action, demand or requirement of any government agency, or any other act or condition beyond the reasonable control of a Party.
F. ASSIGNMENT
F.1. Lessor Assignment Lessor shall have the right to assign its rights, duties and obligations under this Lease to a third party without the prior written consent of Lessee, so long as such assignment does not adversely impair Lessee’s rights in connection with this Lease.
F.2. Lessee Assignment Lessee shall have the right to assign its rights, duties and obligations under this lease without the prior written consent of Lessor to the following entities: (i) one or more parties providing financing or refinancing in connection with the development, construction, ownership, operation or maintenance of the Facility, or any representative of such parties, and (ii) an affiliated entity or a successor entity in a merger or acquisition transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, changes in control of Lessee shall not be deemed to be assignments of this Lease.
F.3. Lessor Sale In the event Lessor shall decide to sell the Premises, the Lessor hereby grants to Lessee a right of first offer with respect to the sale of the premises. The Lessee’s right of first offer does not apply to a sale and/or transfer of the premises to a family member, or family trust. The terms and conditions on which Lessor is willing to sell shall be conveyed to Lessee in writing. Thereafter, Lessee shall have thirty (30) days within which to accept said terms and conditions in writing. In the event of Lessee’s acceptance of such offer, Lessor shall sell the Premises to Lessee pursuant to the terms and conditions of said offer and Lessee shall have one hundred twenty (120) days to close on the purchase. In the event Lessor does not sell the Premises to a third (3rd) party after first offering it to Tenant, this right of first offer shall continue to exist as to any proposed subsequent sale.
G. COOPERATION WITH FINANCING
G.1. Right to Encumber. Lessee, any successor or assignee of Lessee, or any holder of a sublease or license (each hereinafter sometimes referred to as an “Obligor”) may at any time mortgage, pledge, or encumber to any entity (herein, a “Lender”) all or any portion of the Obligor’s rights and interests under this Lease or such sublease or license, in each case without the consent of Lessor. For purposes of this Lease, each entity which now or hereafter is the recipient or beneficiary of any such mortgage, pledge, or encumbrance and whose lien or encumbrance is now or hereafter recorded in the official records of the County in which the Premises is located, shall be referred to in this Lease as a “Lender”.
Proprietary and Confidential 7
G.2. Covenants for Lenders’ Benefit. Lessee and Lessor expressly agree between themselves and for the benefit of any Lenders, that if an Obligor mortgages, pledges, or encumbers any of its rights and interests as provided in Section G.1 above, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary:
G.2.1.1. Lessor and Lessee will not terminate, suspend, amend or modify, or take any action causing, consenting to, acquiescing in, or accepting the termination, suspension, amendment or modification of this Lease, if such amendment or modification would reduce the rights or remedies of any Lender hereunder or impair or reduce the security for any lien held by such Lender, without such Lender’s consent.
G.2.2. Each Lender shall have the right, at its discretion, to take, or cause to be taken, any action required to be performed under this Lease by the Obligor that is party to such Lender’s mortgage, pledge or encumbrance, and any such action performed by such Lender shall be as effective to prevent or cure a default under this Lease and/or a forfeiture of any of such Obligor’s rights under this Lease as if done by such Obligor itself.
G.2.3. The right of a Lender to receive notices and to cure Obligor’s defaults pursuant to the provisions of this Section G.2 shall be available only to those Lenders which shall have notified Lessor in writing of their name and address, or whose lien is recorded in the official records of the County in which the Premises is located, regardless of whether the specific provision in question expressly so states. No default which requires the giving of notice to Obligor shall be effective unless a like notice is given to all Lenders. If Lessor shall become entitled to terminate this Lease due to an uncured default by Obligor, Lessor will not terminate this Lease unless it has first given written notice of such uncured default and of its intent to terminate this Lease to each Lender and has given each Lender at least thirty (30) days after the expiration of the cure period which this Lease provides to Obligor for curing such default, to cure the default to prevent such termination of this Lease. Furthermore, if within such thirty (30) day period a Lender notifies Lessor that it must foreclose on Obligor’s interest or otherwise take possession of Obligor’s interest under this Lease in order to cure the default, Lessor shall not terminate this Lease and shall permit such Lender a sufficient period of time as may be necessary for such Lender, with the exercise of due diligence, to foreclose or acquire Obligor’s interest under this Lease and to perform or cause to be performed all of the covenants and agreements to be performed and observed by Obligor. In the event a Lender shall elect to exercise its rights hereunder, such Lender shall have no personal liability to Lessor and the sole recourse of the Lessor in seeking enforcement of its obligations under this Lease or any new lease entered into pursuant to Section G2.4 below shall be to such Lender’s interest in this Lease and the Premises. Upon the sale or other transfer by any Lender of its interest in the Lease or Premises, such Lender shall have no further duties or obligations hereunder.
G.2.4. In case of the termination or rejection of this Lease as a result of any default hereunder or the bankruptcy, insolvency or appointment of a receiver in bankruptcy, Lessor shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. Upon written request of the Lender that is the beneficiary of the first priority security interest in the Lessee’s interest under this Lease, made within forty (40) days after notice to such Lender of such rejection or termination, Lessor shall enter into a new lease agreement with such Lender, or its designee or assignee, within twenty (20) days after the receipt of such request. Such new lease agreement shall be effective as of the date of the termination or rejection of this Lease, upon the same terms, covenants, conditions and agreements as contained in this Lease for the remaining term of the original Lease before giving effect to such termination or rejection. Lessor shall have no rights to terminate such new lease based upon defaults occurring prior to the execution of the new lease. Lessor hereby agrees with and for the benefit of the Lenders that the provisions of this Subsection shall survive termination, rejection or disaffirmation of the Lease, whether by default or as a result of the bankruptcy, insolvency or appointment of a receiver in bankruptcy and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter to the same extent as if this Subsection were a separate and independent instrument. It is the intent of the parties hereto that any such new lease shall have the same priority as this Lease.
Proprietary and Confidential 8
G.2.5. There shall be no merger of this Lease, or of the leasehold estate created by this Lease, with the fee estate in the Premises by reason of the fact that this Lease or the leasehold estate or any interest therein may be held, directly or indirectly, by or for the account of any person or persons who shall own the fee estate or any interest therein, and no such merger shall occur unless and until all persons at the time having an interest in the fee estate in the Premises and all persons (including the Lenders) having an interest in the Lease or in the estate of Lessor and Lessee shall join in a written instrument effecting such merger and shall duly record the same.
G.3. Lessor shall, at Lessee’s or a Lender’s request, provide to Lessee and such Lender (i) confirmation that such Lender is a “Lender” for purposes of this Lease, (ii) a consent and estoppels acknowledging the Lender’s mortgage or other lien or encumbrance, confirming the continuing effectiveness of this Lease, identifying any modifications hereto and any breaches or defaults hereunder, and containing such other information and agreements as Lessee or such Lender may reasonable request, and (iii) such other certificates or affidavits as Lessee, such Lender or any title company selected by either Lessee or such Lender may reasonably request. Lessor shall duly execute and return same to Lessee and/or Lender within ten (10) days of Lessee’s or Lender’s request therefor. Should Lessor fail to timely execute and deliver the consent and estoppel, then Lessee and/or Lender may rely on the contents thereof and the consent and estoppel shall be conclusively binding upon Lessor.
H. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
H.1. Lessee's Default Each of the following shall be an event of default ("Event of Default") hereunder:
H.1.1. If Lessee shall fail to pay any installment of Construction and Decommissioning Rent, Operating Rent or any other payment due under this Lease, and such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days following Lessor's notice of same to Lessee, provided that such notice from Lessor shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice of default required by applicable law, Lessee shall be deemed in default subject to the provisions herein; and provided further, with respect to the notice requirement, Lessor shall be obligated to give only two (2) such notices per any twelve (12) month period, with any subsequent payment default to be an Event of Default if such failure to pay shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days from the date such payment is due and lack of notice shall not be a defense of Lessee for such default;
H.1.2. If Lessee or any guarantor or surety of Lessee's obligations hereunder shall (i) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) commence any proceeding for relief, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution or composition of it or its debts or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or of any substantial part of its property; (iii) become the subject of any such proceeding which is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after its filing or entry; or (iv) die or suffer a legal disability (if Lessee, guarantor or surety is an individual) or be dissolved or otherwise fail to maintain its legal existence (if Lessee, guarantor or surety is a corporation, partnership or other entity);
H.1.3. If Lessee shall fail to discharge or bond over any lien placed upon the Premises in violation of this Lease within thirty (30) days after Lessee receives notice that any such lien or encumbrance is filed against the Premises;
H.1.4. if Lessee shall fail to comply with any provision of this Lease, other than those specifically referred to hereinabove and, except as otherwise expressly provided therein, such default shall continue for more than thirty (30) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of such default, or such longer period if such default cannot be reasonably cured within such thirty (30) day period, provided that Lessee diligently commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecutes such cure to completion; and
H.1.5. if Lessee shall abandon the Facility for more than ninety (90) days or fail to remove the facility at the end of the Lease Term within 180 days. Due to the nature of the Facility, “abandonment” does not refer to lack of physical presence of personnel on the Premises.
H.2. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, defined as aforesaid, then in any such case, notwithstanding any waiver or other indulgence of any prior default, Lessor may terminate this Lease by written notice to Lessee sent at any time thereafter, but before Lessee has cured or removed the cause for such termination. Subject to
Proprietary and Confidential 9
customary cure periods for any financing parties that may finance all or a portion of the Facilities, such termination shall take effect on the later of (i) the last day of the month in which Lessee receives the notice, or (ii) twenty-one (21) days after Lessee receives the notice, and shall be without prejudice to any remedy Lessor might otherwise have for any prior breach of covenant.
H.3. Lessor Default Election Upon each occurrence of an Event of Default and so long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, Lessor may at any time thereafter, at its election by written notice to Lessee: (i) terminate this Lease or Lessee's right of possession, but Lessee shall remain liable as hereinafter provided; and/or (ii) pursue any remedies provided for under this Lease or at law or in equity. Upon the termination of this Lease or termination of Lessee's right of possession, it shall be lawful for Lessor, without formal demand or notice of any kind, to re-enter the Premises by summary dispossession proceedings or any other action or proceeding authorized by law and to remove Lessee and all persons and property therefrom.
H.4. Reimbursement of Lessor's Expenses In the case of termination of this Lease or termination of Lessee's right of possession pursuant to this Section H (but excluding termination under Section A.5)), Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for all actual expenses arising out of such termination, including, without limitation, (i) all costs actually incurred in collecting such amounts due from Lessee under this Lease (including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred and the costs of litigation and the like but only if Lessor is successful in its litigation), (ii) all customary and necessary expenses incurred by Lessor in attempting to remove the facility in accordance with Section A.5, and (iii) all Lessor's other expenditures necessitated by the termination. The reimbursement from Lessee shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days following written notice from Lessor that an expense has been incurred with documentation substantiating such expenses, without regard to whether the expense was incurred before or after the termination.
H.5. Termination of Right of Possession Even though Lessee has breached this Lease and abandoned the Premises, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Lessor does not terminate the Lease (even though it has terminated Lessee's right of possession), and Lessor may enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Rent as it becomes due until the earlier of: i) the experation of the Term; or ii) Lessee has met all conditions as outlined in A.6. Any such payments due Lessor shall be made on the dates that Rent would otherwise come due under this Lease, and Lessee agrees that Lessor may file suit to recover any sums falling due from time to time. Notwithstanding any such termination of possession only, Lessor may at any time thereafter elect in writing to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.
H.6. Claims in Bankruptcy Nothing herein shall limit or prejudice the right of Lessor to prove and obtain in a proceeding for bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement or reorganization, by reason of the termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by the statute of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be provided, whether or not the amount is greater to, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damage which Lessor has suffered.
H.7. Lessor's Right to Cure Defaults Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to cure, at any time any default by Lessee under this Lease after the applicable notice and cure period (if any) has expired. In curing such defaults, Lessor may enter upon the Premises and take such action thereon as may be necessary to effect such cure. In the case of an emergency threatening serious and imminent injury to persons or property, Lessor may cure such default without notice. All costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in curing a default, including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred, together with interest thereon at a rate equal to the lesser of (a) eight percent (8%) per annum, from the day of payment by Lessor shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor on demand.
H.8. No Waiver Exercise by Lessor of any one or more remedies hereunder granted or otherwise available shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of surrender of the Premises and/or a termination of this Lease by Lessor, whether by agreement or by operation of law, it being understood that such surrender and/or termination can be effected only by the written agreement of Lessor and Lessee. Lessee and Lessor further agree that forbearance or waiver by either party to enforce its rights pursuant to this Lease, or at law or in equity, shall not be a waiver of such party's right to enforce one or more of its rights in connection with any subsequent default. A receipt by Lessor of rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by Lessor of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by Lessor. No payment by Lessee, or acceptance by Lessor, of a lesser amount than shall be
Proprietary and Confidential 10
due from Lessee to Lessor shall be treated otherwise than as a payment on account of the earliest installment of any payment due from Lessee under the provisions hereof. The acceptance by Lessor of a check for a lesser amount with an endorsement or statement thereon, or upon any letter accompanying such check, that such lesser amount is payment in full, shall be given no effect, and Lessor may accept such check without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which Lessor may have against Lessee.
H.9. Late Charge; Default Interest If any payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other payment payable hereunder by Lessee to Lessor shall not be paid when due, Lessor may impose, at its election, a late fee of one hundred ($100.00) dollars with respect to each late payment and interest on the overdue amount from the date when the same was payable until the date paid at a rate equal to the lesser of (a) eight percent (8%) per annum. Such late fee and interest shall constitute Additional Rent payable hereunder.
H.10. Lessor Risk of Entry Should Lessor choose to exercise its rights to enter the Premises and interact with the Facility in any way under the terms of this Lease, Lessor expressly represents and warrants that it is doing so at its own risk and indemnifies and holds harmless Lessee from any harm, loss or damage that may occur as a result of such entry.

In the event of termination, in accordance with Section H, neither Party shall have any further liability to the other, provided that: (i) Lessee, at its expense, shall remove any equipment or materials which Lessee has placed on the Premises; (ii) Lessee, at its expense, shall restore any portions of the Premises disturbed by Lessee to their pre-existing condition pursuant to Section A.6 of this Agreement; (iii) the Parties shall not be released from any payment or other obligations arising under this Agreement prior to the delivery of the notice, in accordance with Section K.1.

During such decommissioning period, Lessee, its Affiliates and any employees, agents, representatives, contractors, subcontractors and other designees of any of the foregoing and any local electric utility personnel shall continue to have access to the Premises and the Facility as otherwise provided in this Lease. Monthly lease payments will continue until the Decommissioning Rent Termination Date. Prior to the Construction Rent period Lessor and Lessee shall agree to a surety mechanism for the removal of the facility.
A.7. Purchase Option Upon Expiration The Lessor may purchase the Facility upon the expiration of this Agreement, if the Agreement is still in effect on such date, at the Facility's fair market value on an installed and running, or going-concern basis. The Lessee shall notify the Lessor of the right to exercise this purchase option in writing, not less than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the expiration date. The Lessor shall provide written notice to Lessee of the Lessor’s intent to exercise this purchase option, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration date or ten (10) business days following determination of Fair Market value, whichever is later (or else the option shall automatically expire) (“Exercise Notice at Term Expiration”).
A.8. Access to Premises Lessor shall provide Lessee with access to the Premises as reasonably necessary to allow Lessee to develop, construct, own, operate and maintain the Facility as contemplated herein, including ingress and egress rights to the Premises for Lessee, its Affiliates and any employees, agents, representatives, subcontractors, Lenders, investors, potential Lenders or potential investors, regulators and other designees of any of the foregoing and any local electric utility personnel, and access to the Facility to interconnect the Facility with the local electrical grid. Lessor grants Lessee all ingress and egress rights of way to the premises as necessary for the design, construction, operation and maintenance of the Facility during the Term of the Lease. Lessor shall provide such space on the Premises and access as is reasonably requested by Lessee for laydown, for the temporary storage and staging of tools, materials, parts, supplies and equipment, for rigging and material handling, for the parking of vehicles and temporary trailers and facilities and for erecting an office or other structure, in each case as reasonable necessary or convenient for the development, construction, ownership, operation, and maintenance of the Facility or any portion thereof. Lessor will identify specific areas for storage, staging, and parking use by the Lessee and its Affiliates. Lessor and its authorized representatives shall at all times have access to, and the right to observe, the development, construction, ownership, operation and maintenance of the Facility on the Premises, subject to compliance with Lessee’s safety rules. However, Lessor shall retain the right to identify alternative areas on property it owns or controls to be used by Lessee for the aforementioned purposes in the event the specific location with respect to Lessee’s activities interferes with Lessor’s operation of its own business.
Proprietary and Confidential 3
A.9. Facility and Output Ownership Lessor acknowledges and agrees that (i) Lessee or one of its Affiliates is and shall be the exclusive owner and operator of the Facility, (ii) all permits, approvals, interconnection agreements, equipment, warrantees, guarantees, service agreements, facilities and other contracts comprising the Facility shall remain the personal property of Lessee and shall not become fixtures, notwithstanding the manner in which the Facility is or may be mounted on, adhered to or attached to the Premises or structures, buildings and fixtures on the Premises, and (iii) Lessor shall have no right, title or interest in any Facility or any component thereof, notwithstanding that any such Facility may be mounted on, adhered to, or attached to the Premises or structures, buildings and fixtures on the Premises, except as otherwise provided herein. As between Lessor and Lessee, Lessor acknowledges that Lessee or one of its Affiliates is and shall be the exclusive owner of all Energy output of the Facility, of all Environmental Attributes related to the Facility and of any other tax or financial incentives related to the Facility. Without the express written consent of Lessee, Lessor shall not make or publish any public statement or notice suggesting ownership of such Energy output, Environmental Attributes or tax or financial incentives.
A.10. Insurance Lessee’s liability insurance shall be purchased and maintained by the Lessee to protect him from claims for damages because of bodily injury, including death, and from claims for damages, other than to the work itself, to property which may arise out of or result from the Lessee’s operation under this Agreement, whether such operation be by himself or by any or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them. The insurance shall name the Lessor as an additional insured and shall be written for not less than $500,000 each person, $1,000,000 each occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate for bodily injury, and $500,000 each occurrence, $1,000,000 aggregate for property damage, or such amount as required by law, whichever is greater, and shall include contractual liability applicable to the Lessee’s obligations. Lessee shall supply Lessor with an annual certificate of insurance upon renewal. The provisions of this Lease shall not be construed so as to relieve any insurer of its obligation to pay any insurance proceeds in accordance with the terms and conditions of valid and collectible insurance policies. The liability of the Parties hereunder shall not be limited or reduced by insurance.
A.11. Taxes Lessee shall pay any personal and real property taxes, possessory interest taxes, business or license taxes or fees, service payments in lieu of such taxes or fees, annual or periodic license or use fees, excises, assessments, bonds, levies, fees or charges of any kind which are assessed, levied, charged, confirmed, or imposed by any public authority due to Lessee’s occupancy and use of the Premises (or any portion or component thereof). Lessor pays all real and personal property taxes on the Premises excepting only real and personal property taxes charged against the Facility. Any taxes, fees, service payments, excises, assessments, bonds, levies, fees or charges of any kind which are adopted by any public authority after the date hereof shall be paid by the party responsible for creating the expense.

No Conflict Lessor represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Lease does not (i) violate (A) its organizational documents, or (B) any Applicable Law, or (ii) require any approval or consent of any other Person, except for such approvals or consents that have been obtained on or before the date hereof or the absence of which could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its ability to execute, deliver or perform this Lease.
B.3. Binding Obligation Lessor represents and warrants that this Lease has been duly executed and delivered by it and is a legally valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.
B.4. Lessor’s Title to Premises Lessor represents, warrants and covenants that Lessor has lawful title to (or a valid leasehold interest in) the Premises and that Lessee shall have quiet and peaceful possession of the Premises in accordance with this Lease, free from any claim of any Person of superior title thereto, without hinderance to or interference with or molestation of Lessee’s quiet enjoyment thereof, throughout the Term of this Lease. Lessor shall not sell, lease, assign, mortgage, pledge or otherwise alienate or encumber the Premises unless Lessor shall
Proprietary and Confidential 4
have given Lessee at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice thereof, which notice shall identify the transferee, the Premises to be so transferred and the proposed date of transfer. Lessor agrees that this Lease shall run with the Premises and survive any such transfer of any of the Premises. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lessor agrees that it shall cause any purchaser, lessee, assignee, mortgagee, pledge or party to whom a lien has been granted to execute and deliver to Lessee a document in form and substance satisfactory to Lessee, pursuant to which such party (i) acknowledges and consents to the Lessee’s rights in the Premises as set forth herein, including an acknowledgement by the transferee that it has no interest in the Facility, the Energy output, the Environmental Attributes or any other tax or financial incentive relating thereto, and shall not gain any interest in any of the foregoing by virtue of the Lessor’s transfer, and (ii) expressly subordinates any lien it may have in and to any of the foregoing to Lessee’s rights and interests hereunder.

To the extent practicable, Lessor shall permit Lessee to maintain reasonable and appropriate security measures on the Premises to prevent Lessor’s employees, invitees, agents and representatives, any third parties or animals, from having access to the Premises or the Facility, and to prevent any theft, vandalism or other actions that have a reasonable likelihood of causing damage, impairment or otherwise adversely affecting the Facility.
B.6. Insolation Lessor acknowledges and agrees that access to sunlight (“insolation”) is essential to the value to Lessee of the leasehold interest granted hereunder and is a material inducement to Lessee in entering into this Lease. Accordingly, Lessor shall not permit any interference with insolation on and at the Premises or any other real property owned by, leased to or from, or otherwise controlled by Lessor that may reasonably be considered to adversely affect the Facility. In the Event of any obstruction that interferes with insolation is proposed to be erected or installed on property other than the Premises Lessor shall promptly deliver to Lessee copies of any notice relating thereto received by Lessor, and Lessee shall have the right to intervene or to direct Lessor to intervene in any proceeding and to contest the installation or erection of such obstruction. In the event such obstruction is installed, (a) Lessee shall have the right to remove the Facility from the Premises and (b) Lessor shall be liable for damages in accordance with Section H. However, the maintenance of the property upon which the equipment is located including the control of the growth of foliage is the responsibility of the Lessee.
B.7. Hazardous Materials To the best of Lessor’s knowledge, there are no hazardous, toxic or dangerous substances, chemicals, materials or wastes present on, in, under or over the Premises in violation of any Applicable Law or that might otherwise impair Lessee’s ability to utilize the Premises as contemplated by this Lease. Lessor shall not introduce or use any hazardous, toxic or dangerous substances, chemicals, materials or wastes on, in, under or over the Premises in violation of any Applicable Law. If Lessor becomes aware of any hazardous, toxic or dangerous substances, chemicals, materials or wastes present on, in, under or over the Premises, Lessor shall promptly notify Lessee of the type and location of such substances, chemicals, materials or wastes in writing. Lessor agrees to assume full responsibility for and shall protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lessee and its Indemnitees against, any loss, costs, damages, liability or cleanup obligations arising out of (i) any pre-existing conditions caused as a result of Hazardous Materials on, in, under or over the Premises, and (ii) any loss, costs, damages, liability or cleanup obligations arising as a result of actions or inactions on the part of Lessor on or after the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification by Lessor set forth herein shall not apply in instances where the loss, costs, damages, liability or cleanup arises as a result of actions of Lessee or those acting for or on behalf of Lessee.
C. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF LESSEE

D. LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY
D.1. Lessee Indemnity Lessee shall defend, indemnify, protect and hold harmless Lessor, and its partners, members, affiliates, agents, directors, shareholders, employees, representatives, successors, assigns, contractors or anyone claiming under Lessor (collectively, including Lessor, the “Lessor Parties”) from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, “Claims”) suffered or incurred by any of the Lessor Parties as a result of or arising out of: (a) any acts, omissions or negligence of Lessee, its partners, members, affiliates, agents, directors, shareholders, employees, representatives, successors, assigns, contractors or anyone claiming under Lessee (collectively, including Lessee, the “Lessee Parties”) in connection with Lessee Parties’ uses of or operations on the Premises, except to the extent any such Claim is caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of a Lessor Party, or (b) a breach of this Lease by Lessee that remains uncured after any applicable notice and cure period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lessor Parties hereby waive any Claims against the Lessee Parties for damage or injury suffered by the Lessor Parties arising as a result of any audible or electromagnetic noise, electrical interference and radio frequency interference attributable to the Lessee Parties’ operations on the Premises or any other property, provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to release Lessee from its obligation to defend, indemnify, protect and hold harmless the Lessor Parties from third party claims under the first sentence of this Section D.1. The Lessee Parties shall not be liable for losses of rent, business opportunities, profits or any other consequential damages that may result from the conduct of Lessee Parties’ uses of or operations on the Premises.
D.2. Indemnity by Lessor. Lessor shall defend, indemnify, protect and hold harmless the Lessee Parties from and against any and all Claims suffered or incurred by any of the Lessee Parties as a result of or arising out of: (a) any acts, omissions or negligence of any of the Lessor Parties in connection with Lessor Parties’ uses of or operations on the Premises, except to the extent any such Claim is caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of a Lessee Party, or (b) a breach of this Lease by Lessor that remains uncured after any applicable notice and cure period.
D.3. No Consequential Damages. Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, neither Lessee nor Lessor shall be liable to the other for incidental, consequential, special, punitive or indirect damages, including without limitation, loss of use, loss of profits, cost of capital or increased operating costs, arising out of this Lease whether by reason of contract, indemnity, strict liability, negligence, intentional conduct, breach of warranty or from breach of this Lease. The foregoing provision shall not prohibit Lessee or Lessor from seeking and obtaining general contract damages for a breach of this Lease.
E. CASUALTY OR CONDEMNATION, FORCE MAJEURE
E.1. In the event the Premises shall be so damaged or destroyed so as to make the use of the Premises impractical as determined by Lessee, then Lessee may elect to terminate this Lease on not less than twenty (20) days’ prior notice to Lessor, effective as of a date specified in such notice. If Lessee does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to the previous sentence, Lessor shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to repair the damage to the Premises and return the Premises to its condition prior to such damage or destruction; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in this Lease (including Section A.10 and D.2), Lessor shall in no event be
Proprietary and Confidential 6
required to repair, replace or restore any property of Lessee comprising part of the Facility, which replacement or restoration shall be Lessee’s responsibility. In the event of an award related to eminent domain or condemnation of all or part of the Premises, each Party shall be entitled to take from such an award that portion as allowed by Applicable Law for its respective property interest appropriated as well as any damages suffered thereby.
E.2. To the extent either Party is prevented by Force Majeure from carrying out, in whole or part, its obligations under this Lease and such Party (the “Claiming Party”) gives notice and details of the Force Majeure to the other Party as soon as practicable (and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the Force Majeure first prevents performance by the Claiming Party), then the Claiming Party will be excused from the performance of its obligations under this Lease (other than the obligation to make payments then due, and except as otherwise provided in Section A.10 and D.2). The Claiming Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate or avoid the Force Majeure and resume performing its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that neither Party is required to settle any strikes, lockouts or similar disputes except on terms acceptable to such Party, in its sole discretion. The non-Claiming Party will not be required to perform or resume performance of its obligations to the Claiming Party corresponding to the obligations of the Claiming Party excused by Force Majeure (other than the obligation to make payments then due, and except as otherwise provided in Section A.10 and D.2).
E.3. Force Majeure If performance of this Lease or of any obligation hereunder is prevented or substantially restricted or interfered with by reason of an event of Force Majeure (defined below), the affected Party, upon giving notice to the other Party, shall be excused from such performance to the extent of and for the duration of such prevention, restriction or interference. The affected Party shall use its reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of nonperformance and shall continue performance as soon as such causes are removed. “Force Majeure” means: fire, earthquake, flood, tornado or other acts of God and natural disasters; strikes or labor disputes; war, civil strife or other violence; any law, order, proclamation, regulation, ordinance, action, demand or requirement of any government agency, or any other act or condition beyond the reasonable control of a Party.
F. ASSIGNMENT
F.1. Lessor Assignment Lessor shall have the right to assign its rights, duties and obligations under this Lease to a third party without the prior written consent of Lessee, so long as such assignment does not adversely impair Lessee’s rights in connection with this Lease.
F.2. Lessee Assignment Lessee shall have the right to assign its rights, duties and obligations under this lease without the prior written consent of Lessor to the following entities: (i) one or more parties providing financing or refinancing in connection with the development, construction, ownership, operation or maintenance of the Facility, or any representative of such parties, and (ii) an affiliated entity or a successor entity in a merger or acquisition transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, changes in control of Lessee shall not be deemed to be assignments of this Lease.
F.3. Lessor Sale In the event Lessor shall decide to sell the Premises, the Lessor hereby grants to Lessee a right of first offer with respect to the sale of the premises. The Lessee’s right of first offer does not apply to a sale and/or transfer of the premises to a family member, or family trust. The terms and conditions on which Lessor is willing to sell shall be conveyed to Lessee in writing. Thereafter, Lessee shall have thirty (30) days within which to accept said terms and conditions in writing. In the event of Lessee’s acceptance of such offer, Lessor shall sell the Premises to Lessee pursuant to the terms and conditions of said offer and Lessee shall have one hundred twenty (120) days to close on the purchase. In the event Lessor does not sell the Premises to a third (3rd) party after first offering it to Tenant, this right of first offer shall continue to exist as to any proposed subsequent sale.
G. COOPERATION WITH FINANCING
G.1. Right to Encumber. Lessee, any successor or assignee of Lessee, or any holder of a sublease or license (each hereinafter sometimes referred to as an “Obligor”) may at any time mortgage, pledge, or encumber to any entity (herein, a “Lender”) all or any portion of the Obligor’s rights and interests under this Lease or such sublease or license, in each case without the consent of Lessor. For purposes of this Lease, each entity which now or hereafter is the recipient or beneficiary of any such mortgage, pledge, or encumbrance and whose lien or encumbrance is now or hereafter recorded in the official records of the County in which the Premises is located, shall be referred to in this Lease as a “Lender”.
Proprietary and Confidential 7
G.2. Covenants for Lenders’ Benefit. Lessee and Lessor expressly agree between themselves and for the benefit of any Lenders, that if an Obligor mortgages, pledges, or encumbers any of its rights and interests as provided in Section G.1 above, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary:
G.2.1.1. Lessor and Lessee will not terminate, suspend, amend or modify, or take any action causing, consenting to, acquiescing in, or accepting the termination, suspension, amendment or modification of this Lease, if such amendment or modification would reduce the rights or remedies of any Lender hereunder or impair or reduce the security for any lien held by such Lender, without such Lender’s consent.
G.2.2. Each Lender shall have the right, at its discretion, to take, or cause to be taken, any action required to be performed under this Lease by the Obligor that is party to such Lender’s mortgage, pledge or encumbrance, and any such action performed by such Lender shall be as effective to prevent or cure a default under this Lease and/or a forfeiture of any of such Obligor’s rights under this Lease as if done by such Obligor itself.
G.2.3. The right of a Lender to receive notices and to cure Obligor’s defaults pursuant to the provisions of this Section G.2 shall be available only to those Lenders which shall have notified Lessor in writing of their name and address, or whose lien is recorded in the official records of the County in which the Premises is located, regardless of whether the specific provision in question expressly so states. No default which requires the giving of notice to Obligor shall be effective unless a like notice is given to all Lenders. If Lessor shall become entitled to terminate this Lease due to an uncured default by Obligor, Lessor will not terminate this Lease unless it has first given written notice of such uncured default and of its intent to terminate this Lease to each Lender and has given each Lender at least thirty (30) days after the expiration of the cure period which this Lease provides to Obligor for curing such default, to cure the default to prevent such termination of this Lease. Furthermore, if within such thirty (30) day period a Lender notifies Lessor that it must foreclose on Obligor’s interest or otherwise take possession of Obligor’s interest under this Lease in order to cure the default, Lessor shall not terminate this Lease and shall permit such Lender a sufficient period of time as may be necessary for such Lender, with the exercise of due diligence, to foreclose or acquire Obligor’s interest under this Lease and to perform or cause to be performed all of the covenants and agreements to be performed and observed by Obligor. In the event a Lender shall elect to exercise its rights hereunder, such Lender shall have no personal liability to Lessor and the sole recourse of the Lessor in seeking enforcement of its obligations under this Lease or any new lease entered into pursuant to Section G2.4 below shall be to such Lender’s interest in this Lease and the Premises. Upon the sale or other transfer by any Lender of its interest in the Lease or Premises, such Lender shall have no further duties or obligations hereunder.
G.2.4. In case of the termination or rejection of this Lease as a result of any default hereunder or the bankruptcy, insolvency or appointment of a receiver in bankruptcy, Lessor shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. Upon written request of the Lender that is the beneficiary of the first priority security interest in the Lessee’s interest under this Lease, made within forty (40) days after notice to such Lender of such rejection or termination, Lessor shall enter into a new lease agreement with such Lender, or its designee or assignee, within twenty (20) days after the receipt of such request. Such new lease agreement shall be effective as of the date of the termination or rejection of this Lease, upon the same terms, covenants, conditions and agreements as contained in this Lease for the remaining term of the original Lease before giving effect to such termination or rejection. Lessor shall have no rights to terminate such new lease based upon defaults occurring prior to the execution of the new lease. Lessor hereby agrees with and for the benefit of the Lenders that the provisions of this Subsection shall survive termination, rejection or disaffirmation of the Lease, whether by default or as a result of the bankruptcy, insolvency or appointment of a receiver in bankruptcy and shall continue in full force and effect thereafter to the same extent as if this Subsection were a separate and independent instrument. It is the intent of the parties hereto that any such new lease shall have the same priority as this Lease.
Proprietary and Confidential 8
G.2.5. There shall be no merger of this Lease, or of the leasehold estate created by this Lease, with the fee estate in the Premises by reason of the fact that this Lease or the leasehold estate or any interest therein may be held, directly or indirectly, by or for the account of any person or persons who shall own the fee estate or any interest therein, and no such merger shall occur unless and until all persons at the time having an interest in the fee estate in the Premises and all persons (including the Lenders) having an interest in the Lease or in the estate of Lessor and Lessee shall join in a written instrument effecting such merger and shall duly record the same.
G.3. Lessor shall, at Lessee’s or a Lender’s request, provide to Lessee and such Lender (i) confirmation that such Lender is a “Lender” for purposes of this Lease, (ii) a consent and estoppels acknowledging the Lender’s mortgage or other lien or encumbrance, confirming the continuing effectiveness of this Lease, identifying any modifications hereto and any breaches or defaults hereunder, and containing such other information and agreements as Lessee or such Lender may reasonable request, and (iii) such other certificates or affidavits as Lessee, such Lender or any title company selected by either Lessee or such Lender may reasonably request. Lessor shall duly execute and return same to Lessee and/or Lender within ten (10) days of Lessee’s or Lender’s request therefor. Should Lessor fail to timely execute and deliver the consent and estoppel, then Lessee and/or Lender may rely on the contents thereof and the consent and estoppel shall be conclusively binding upon Lessor.
H. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
H.1. Lessee's Default Each of the following shall be an event of default ("Event of Default") hereunder:
H.1.1. If Lessee shall fail to pay any installment of Construction and Decommissioning Rent, Operating Rent or any other payment due under this Lease, and such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days following Lessor's notice of same to Lessee, provided that such notice from Lessor shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice of default required by applicable law, Lessee shall be deemed in default subject to the provisions herein; and provided further, with respect to the notice requirement, Lessor shall be obligated to give only two (2) such notices per any twelve (12) month period, with any subsequent payment default to be an Event of Default if such failure to pay shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days from the date such payment is due and lack of notice shall not be a defense of Lessee for such default;
H.1.2. If Lessee or any guarantor or surety of Lessee's obligations hereunder shall (i) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) commence any proceeding for relief, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution or composition of it or its debts or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or of any substantial part of its property; (iii) become the subject of any such proceeding which is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after its filing or entry; or (iv) die or suffer a legal disability (if Lessee, guarantor or surety is an individual) or be dissolved or otherwise fail to maintain its legal existence (if Lessee, guarantor or surety is a corporation, partnership or other entity);
H.1.3. If Lessee shall fail to discharge or bond over any lien placed upon the Premises in violation of this Lease within thirty (30) days after Lessee receives notice that any such lien or encumbrance is filed against the Premises;
H.1.4. if Lessee shall fail to comply with any provision of this Lease, other than those specifically referred to hereinabove and, except as otherwise expressly provided therein, such default shall continue for more than thirty (30) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of such default, or such longer period if such default cannot be reasonably cured within such thirty (30) day period, provided that Lessee diligently commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecutes such cure to completion; and
H.1.5. if Lessee shall abandon the Facility for more than ninety (90) days or fail to remove the facility at the end of the Lease Term within 180 days. Due to the nature of the Facility, “abandonment” does not refer to lack of physical presence of personnel on the Premises.
H.2. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, defined as aforesaid, then in any such case, notwithstanding any waiver or other indulgence of any prior default, Lessor may terminate this Lease by written notice to Lessee sent at any time thereafter, but before Lessee has cured or removed the cause for such termination. Subject to
Proprietary and Confidential 9
customary cure periods for any financing parties that may finance all or a portion of the Facilities, such termination shall take effect on the later of (i) the last day of the month in which Lessee receives the notice, or (ii) twenty-one (21) days after Lessee receives the notice, and shall be without prejudice to any remedy Lessor might otherwise have for any prior breach of covenant.
H.3. Lessor Default Election Upon each occurrence of an Event of Default and so long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, Lessor may at any time thereafter, at its election by written notice to Lessee: (i) terminate this Lease or Lessee's right of possession, but Lessee shall remain liable as hereinafter provided; and/or (ii) pursue any remedies provided for under this Lease or at law or in equity. Upon the termination of this Lease or termination of Lessee's right of possession, it shall be lawful for Lessor, without formal demand or notice of any kind, to re-enter the Premises by summary dispossession proceedings or any other action or proceeding authorized by law and to remove Lessee and all persons and property therefrom.
H.4. Reimbursement of Lessor's Expenses In the case of termination of this Lease or termination of Lessee's right of possession pursuant to this Section H (but excluding termination under Section A.5)), Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for all actual expenses arising out of such termination, including, without limitation, (i) all costs actually incurred in collecting such amounts due from Lessee under this Lease (including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred and the costs of litigation and the like but only if Lessor is successful in its litigation), (ii) all customary and necessary expenses incurred by Lessor in attempting to remove the facility in accordance with Section A.5, and (iii) all Lessor's other expenditures necessitated by the termination. The reimbursement from Lessee shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days following written notice from Lessor that an expense has been incurred with documentation substantiating such expenses, without regard to whether the expense was incurred before or after the termination.
H.5. Termination of Right of Possession Even though Lessee has breached this Lease and abandoned the Premises, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Lessor does not terminate the Lease (even though it has terminated Lessee's right of possession), and Lessor may enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Rent as it becomes due until the earlier of: i) the experation of the Term; or ii) Lessee has met all conditions as outlined in A.6. Any such payments due Lessor shall be made on the dates that Rent would otherwise come due under this Lease, and Lessee agrees that Lessor may file suit to recover any sums falling due from time to time. Notwithstanding any such termination of possession only, Lessor may at any time thereafter elect in writing to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.
H.6. Claims in Bankruptcy Nothing herein shall limit or prejudice the right of Lessor to prove and obtain in a proceeding for bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement or reorganization, by reason of the termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by the statute of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be provided, whether or not the amount is greater to, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damage which Lessor has suffered.
H.7. Lessor's Right to Cure Defaults Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to cure, at any time any default by Lessee under this Lease after the applicable notice and cure period (if any) has expired. In curing such defaults, Lessor may enter upon the Premises and take such action thereon as may be necessary to effect such cure. In the case of an emergency threatening serious and imminent injury to persons or property, Lessor may cure such default without notice. All costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in curing a default, including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred, together with interest thereon at a rate equal to the lesser of (a) eight percent (8%) per annum, from the day of payment by Lessor shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor on demand.
H.8. No Waiver Exercise by Lessor of any one or more remedies hereunder granted or otherwise available shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of surrender of the Premises and/or a termination of this Lease by Lessor, whether by agreement or by operation of law, it being understood that such surrender and/or termination can be effected only by the written agreement of Lessor and Lessee. Lessee and Lessor further agree that forbearance or waiver by either party to enforce its rights pursuant to this Lease, or at law or in equity, shall not be a waiver of such party's right to enforce one or more of its rights in connection with any subsequent default. A receipt by Lessor of rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by Lessor of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by Lessor. No payment by Lessee, or acceptance by Lessor, of a lesser amount than shall be
Proprietary and Confidential 10
due from Lessee to Lessor shall be treated otherwise than as a payment on account of the earliest installment of any payment due from Lessee under the provisions hereof. The acceptance by Lessor of a check for a lesser amount with an endorsement or statement thereon, or upon any letter accompanying such check, that such lesser amount is payment in full, shall be given no effect, and Lessor may accept such check without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which Lessor may have against Lessee.
H.9. Late Charge; Default Interest If any payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other payment payable hereunder by Lessee to Lessor shall not be paid when due, Lessor may impose, at its election, a late fee of one hundred ($100.00) dollars with respect to each late payment and interest on the overdue amount from the date when the same was payable until the date paid at a rate equal to the lesser of (a) eight percent (8%) per annum. Such late fee and interest shall constitute Additional Rent payable hereunder.
H.10. Lessor Risk of Entry Should Lessor choose to exercise its rights to enter the Premises and interact with the Facility in any way under the terms of this Lease, Lessor expressly represents and warrants that it is doing so at its own risk and indemnifies and holds harmless Lessee from any harm, loss or damage that may occur as a result of such entry.
I. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
I.1. Notice of Dispute/Negotiated Resolution. In the event of any controversy, claim or dispute between the Parties hereto arising out of or related to this Lease, or the breach hereof, that has not been resolved by informal discussions and negotiations, either Party may, by written notice to the other, invoke the formal dispute resolution procedures set forth herein. The written notice invoking these procedures shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature, background and circumstances of the controversy, claim or dispute. During the ten (10) Business Day period following such written notice, the Parties shall meet, confer and negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute.
I.2. Mediation If the parties are unable to successfully resolve any dispute under this Lease, then in that event the dispute shall be submitted to mediation.

J. NOTICE OF LEASE
J.1. Lessee agrees not to record this Lease without Lessor's consent, but, if the Lease Term is seven (7) years or longer, each party hereto agrees, on the request of the other, to execute a notice of lease in recordable form and complying with applicable law. In no event shall such document set forth the rent or other charges payable by Lessee under this Lease; and any such document shall expressly state that it is executed pursuant to the provisions contained in this Lease, and is not intended to vary the terms and conditions of this Lease.

Proprietary and Confidential 12

K.11. Construction of Agreement This Lease and any ambiguities or uncertainties contained herein shall be equally and fairly interpreted for the benefit of and against both Parties and shall further be construed and interpreted without reference to the identity of the Party preparing this document, it being expressly understood and agreed that the Parties participated equally in the negotiation and preparation of this Lease or have had equal opportunity to do so. Accordingly, the Parties hereby waive the legal presumption that the language of the contract should be interpreted most strongly against the Party who caused the uncertainty to exist.
K.12. Estoppel Either Party, without charge, at any time and from time to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a written request by the other Party, shall deliver a written instrument, duly executed, certifying to such requesting Party, or any other Person specified by such requesting Party: (i) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or if there has been any modification, that the same is in full force and effect as so modified, and identifying any such modification; (ii) whether or not to the knowledge of such Party there are then existing any defenses in favor of such Party against enforcement of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease and, if so, specifying the same and also whether or not to the knowledge of such Party the other party has observed and performed all of the terms, covenants and conditions on its part to be observed and performed, and if not, specifying the same; (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested by a Party hereto. Any written instrument given hereunder may be relied upon by the recipient of such instrument, except to the extent the recipient has actual knowledge of facts contrary to the facts contained in the certificate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party agrees that the other Party may disclose such data and information to its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, subcontractors, Lenders, investors, potential Lenders or potential investors, on a “need to know” basis; provided, however, that such officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and subcontractors will be advised of the confidentiality provisions hereof.. The obligations of the Parties under this Section will survive for a period of two (2) years from and after the termination of this Lease.
K.14. Subordination Upon the request of Lessor, to execute and deliver all such instruments as may reasonably be requested to subordinate this Lease to any mortgages or deeds of trust securing notes or bonds executed by Lessor and to all advances made thereunder and to the interest thereon and all renewals, replacements and extensions thereof, provided that Lessor first obtains from Lessor's Mortgagee and delivers to Lessee a written agreement that provides substantially that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing and so long as Lessee performs its obligations under this Lease, no foreclosure of, deed given in lieu of foreclosure of, or sale under the encumbrance, and no steps or procedures taken under the encumbrance, shall affect Lessee's rights hereunder. Lessor's Mortgagee may at any time subordinate its mortgage or deed of trust to this Lease, without Lessee's consent, by notice in writing to Lessee and thereupon this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage or deed of trust without regard to their respective dates of execution, delivery and recording; and in that event such mortgagee or trustee shall have the same rights with respect to the Lease as though it had been executed and delivered (and notice thereof recorded) prior to the execution and delivery and recording of the mortgage or deed of trust provided Lessor obtains a subordination and non-disturbance agreement from the present mortgagee of record in a form reasonably satisfactory to Lessee.

The restrictions in this provision shall not apply to the equipment owned and operated by Lessee nor the activities associated with the normal construction and operations of a solar facility.
K.17. Quiet Enjoyment Lessor covenants that Lessee on paying the Rent and performing Lessee's obligations under this Lease shall peacefully and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises throughout the Lease Term or until it is terminated as in this Lease provided without hindrance by Lessor or by anyone claiming by, through or under Lessor.

CITY OF GALESBURG COUNCIL LETTER
JUNE 18, 2018
AGENDA ITEM: Approve marketing service proposal submitted by McDaniels Marketing.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, Director of Parks and Recreation, and Purchasing Agent recommend that the City Council approve the proposal in the amount of $6,250.00 from McDaniels Marketing to develop a logo and a marketing plan for the Parks and Recreation Department.
BACKGROUND: The Park and Recreation Master Plan, even in draft form, has shown that there is a need to market the park and recreation programs and services better. The Parks and Recreation Department has been marketing its programs and services in the same way for many years without knowing what markets are truly being reached with the advertising dollars spent. Besides creating an identifiable logo for the department, McDaniels Marketing will identify what target market each advertising medium reaches and provide a marketing plan for Parks and Recreation to utilize in building their marketing presence.
The selection of McDaniels Marketing is beneficial in that the marketing plan will tie in with what the Chamber of Commerce is currently developing with their marketing plan. Having one vendor handle both areas will help with development of complementary marketing strategies for events and opportunities in Galesburg. Further, Parks & Recreation will obtain the services at a discounted rate since this firm has already gained an understanding of the community by working with the Chamber of Commerce.
BUDGET IMPACT: Recreation has budgeted sufficient funds for this needed service.

COUNCIL LETTER CITY OF GALESBURG
JUNE 18, 2018
AGENDA ITEM: 2018 Classification and Salary Schedule.
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The City Manager, City Attorney/Administrative Services Director, and Director of Planning and Public Works recommend amending the Classification and Salary Schedule to reflect the addition of the position of City Engineer, and the removal of the position of Assistant City Engineer.
BACKGROUND: In 2015, the Classification and Salary Schedule was amended to create the position of Assistant City Engineer (Range 28 EX), and the position of City Engineer was folded into the position of Director of Planning and Public Works/City Engineer. This arrangement was successful in utilizing the talents of current staff members.
The position of Assistant City Engineer has become vacant, and the city attempted to fill the position. However, efforts thus far have been unsuccessful in attracting a qualified candidate for the position of Assistant City Engineer at the current pay range. Recruitment efforts include posting the position on the City’s website and social media; as well as with Indeed, Linked-In, American Public Works Association, Illinois Municipal League, and Illinois Society of Professional Engineers.
In order to attract a senior level engineer, with the experience and qualifications necessary to fulfill the duties of the position, it is recommended to revert to a City Engineer (Range 31 EX) position to be filled in lieu of the existing Assistant City Engineer position (Range 28 EX).
BUDGET IMPACT: The salary range for the position of City Engineer (Range 31 EX) is a 15% increase from the salary range for Assistant City Engineer (Range 28 EX).
