I. Background The County of Hawaii (the "County") has heretofore established Improvement District No. 17, Kaloko Subdivision (the "Improvement District") in accordance with Chapter 12, Hawaii County Code. The Improvement District encompasses approximately 1,340 acres of land in the North Kona area of the County. The outstanding indebtedness of the Improvement District consists of the "Improvement District No. 17, Kaloko Subdivision, 1991 Special Assessment Bonds" (the "1991 Bonds") issued by the County in connection with the construction of certain public improvements within the Improvement District. The 1991 Bonds were issued in the original principal amount of $14,000,000, of which $10,165,000 are currently outstanding. The 1991 Bonds are payable as to principal and interest from improvement assessments on assessable properties within the Improvement District. Pursuant to Section 12-59(a), Hawaii County Code, the Petitioners have proposed that the outstanding 1991 Bonds be refunded by call for redemption from the proceeds of a proposed new series of special assessment bonds (the "Refunding Bonds") of the County. Pursuant to the Resolution, this County Council has directed this office to investigate and report on the matters set forth in Section 12-59(b), Hawaii County Code, with respect to the proposed refunding. II. Findings Pursuant to the Resolution and Section 12-59(b), Hawaii County Code, we report the following findings regarding the proposed refunding: 1. The total amount of unpaid assessments within the Improvement District is $9,698,920.57. There are 36 properties from the original assessment roll which are still subject to assessment. MID Corporation owns 3 of the parcels, TSA owns 26 parcels and the remaining 7 parcels are owned by others. A schedule of such unpaid assessments and the properties subject thereto is attached as Exhibit A hereto. 2. There are $407.48 of delinquent assessments and penalties on 2 properties within the Improvement District. None of the Petitioners' properties have delinquent assessments. Details of such delinquent assessments and penalties are set forth in Exhibit A hereto. 3. The Petitioners own real estate representing 75% or more of the unpaid assessments within the Improvement District. As shown in Exhibit A hereto, MID Corporation owns parcels 1, 2 and 3 on the current assessment roll, which represent $8,368,275.28 or 86% of the total unpaid assessments. 4. The proposed reassessment involves the addition of a new parcel 50 (currently part of parcel 3) to the assessment roll and the reallocation of assessments among parcels 1, 2, 3 and 50, all owned by MID Corporation, as follows: (a) The existing parcel 3, owned by MID Corporation, was divided into two parcels (TMK 7-3-009-26, 194.324 acres, and TMK 7-3-009-28, 371.905 acres) by the construction of Hinalani Street. However, parcel 3 continues to be assessed as a single lot. The Petitioners' proposal is to add a new parcel 50 (consisting of TMK 7-3-009-28) to the assessment roll so that parcel 3 (TMK 7-3-009-26) and parcel 50 (TMK 7-3-009-28) can be assessed separately. (b) The Petitioners also propose that the outstanding assessments on the existing parcels 1, 2 and 3 be reallocated among parcels 1, 2, 3 (TMK 7-3-009-26) and 50 (TMK 7-3-009-28), all owned by MID Corporation, on an area basis. The total acreage of all four parcels is 1,150.79 acres. MID Corporation's $8,368,275,28 total obligation would be apportioned equally over the total acreage in these four parcels or $7,271.77 per acre. (c) The proposed reassessment is limited to properties owned by MID Corporation and will not affect the assessments on any properties owned by others. 5. Attached as Exhibit B hereto is a new assessment roll setting forth the proposed reassessments, including the addition of the new parcel 50 and the reallocation of assessments on MID Corporation's properties. 6. For purposes of Section 12-59(b)(6), Hawaii County Code, the estimated cost of the proposed refunding scheme is $1,500.00, consisting of the cost of publishing public hearing notices required for the refunding. Costs of redeeming the 1991 Bonds and costs of issuing the Refunding Bonds are excluded based on the following: (a) If the Refunding Bonds are successfully issued, all such costs will be paid from the proceeds of the Refunding Bonds or from funds of the Improvement District available for such purpose. The County will have no obligation to pay such costs from any other funds. (b) The County will have no obligation to pay any such costs if the Refunding Bonds are not issued for any reason: (i) The 1991 Bonds will not be called for redemption unless the Refunding Bonds are successfully issued and the necessary funds to redeem the 1991 Bonds are in hand. Consequently, the cost of redeeming the 1991 Bonds will be contingent on the successful issuance of the Refunding Bonds and will not be payable if the Refunding Bonds are not issued for any reason. (ii) Costs of issuing the Refunding Bonds will also be contingent on the successful issuance of the Refunding Bonds and will not be payable if the Refunding Bonds are not issued for any reason; except for such costs of issuance as are otherwise payable by the Petitioners to third parties who expressly agree that they will seek payment solely from the Petitioners without recourse to the County. 1~u.~u~ ~ • w . ~ DENNIS K.

EXHIBIT B EXIIIBIT B COUNTY OF IIAWAII Improvement District No. 17 Kaloko Subdivision Description of Proposed Refunding Plan 1. Outstanding Indebtedness to be Refunded. The outstanding indebtedness of the Improvement District consists of the Outstanding Bonds referred to in the foregoing Resolution. The Outstanding Bonds are currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $10,165,000, bear interest at the rate of 9.5% per annum, mature on August 1, 2011 and are next subject to optional redemption on February 1, 2002 at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount thereof. Under the proposed refunding plan, all of the Outstanding Bonds are to be refunded by call for optional redemption on the next available redemption date (i.e., February 1, 2002). 2. Issuance owe,, u~ndi~Bonds. The proposed refunding plan provides for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed from the proceeds of the new series of Refunding Bonds referred to in the foregoing Resolution, together with available funds of the Improvement District currently held for payment of the Outstanding Bonds. The Refunding Bonds are proposed to be issued pursuant to a Bond Ordinance to be adopted by the County Council pursuant to Chapter 12, Article 5, of the Hawaii County Code. The Bond Ordinance will specify the material terms of the Refunding Bonds, including the maximum principal amount, maximum interest rate, maximum redemption price and maximum term to maturity (no extension of maturity is currently anticipated). Subject to the provisions of the Bond Ordinance, the actual principal amount and other terms of the Refunding Bonds will be determined in connection with the marketing thereof the Refunding Bonds. In order for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed on February 1, 2002, the Refunding Bonds are to be issued before the end of December 2001. Such issuance prior to the redemption date is required under the terms of the Outstanding Bonds because the necessary redemption funds must be in hand in order for the required 30 days' notice of the redemption to be given. Pending application, funds to redeem the Outstanding Bonds will be deposited into a special escrow fund to be held for the benefit of the holders of the Outstanding Bonds. 3. Proposed Metho~Reassessment. MID Corporation has petitioned the Council for a reallocation of the assessments on the parcels which it owns within the Improvement District. MID Corporation owns parcels 1 (TMK 7-3- 009-017), 2 (TMK 7-3-009-025) and 3 (now subdivided into TMKs 7-3-009-026 and 7-3-009-028), B-1 representing a total of $8,368,275.28 of outstanding assessments. The proposed reallocation involves: (a) Addition of a new parcel 50 (consisting of TMK 7-3-009-028) to the assessment roll so that parcel 3 (TMK 7-3-009-26) and parce150 (TMK 7-3-009-028) will be assessed separately; and (b) Reallocation of MID Corporation's $8,368,275.28 total assessment obligations for parcels 1, 2, 3 and 50 on an area basis. The reallocation of assessments among parcels 1, 2, 3 and 50 will not affect MID Corporation's total assessment obligation. Therefore, the reallocation will not affect the assessments on other properties within the Improvement District. As proposed, the minimum number of installment payments is 116 (as of October 12, 2001) and the maximum estimated unit of assessment is $.2855205 per square foot. Any reductions in principal and interest resulting from the refunding of the Outstanding Bonds will be applied on a proportionate basis. B-2
