(B) In furtherance of the foregoing, the Commission shall issue, from time to time, commercial paper notes to be known as "Florida Local Government Finance Commission Pooled Commercial Paper Notes, Series A (Governmental Issue)" pursuant to the Program and shall loan the proceeds of such Series A Notes to public agencies, including the Public Agency.

(D) There is presently a need by the Public Agency to finance the acquisition, construction and equipping of the Project A-1 and the most cost-effective means by which to finance the Project A-1 is by use of moneys obtained pursuant to the Program by means of the Loan. (E) The Public Agency is authorized under and pursuant to the Act to enter into the Loan Agreement for the purposes set forth therein. (F) The Public Agency hereby determines that provision of funds by the Commission to the Public Agency in the form of the Loan pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement and the finance of the Project A-1 will assist in the development and maintenance of the public welfare of the residents of the Public Agency, and shall serve a public purpose by improving the health and living conditions, and providing governmental services, facilities and programs and will promote the most efficient and economical development of such services, facilities and programs. (G) The Loan shall be repaid solely from the Designated Revenues as provided in the Loan Agreement.

SECTION 5.05. COSTS OF ISSUANCE. (a) At the time of each Draw hereunder, the Public Agency agrees to pay the Administrator an amount equal to $2,000 for each $1,000,000 of Loan Amounts then Outstanding (including the proposed Draw) to the extent not previously paid with respect to such Outstanding amounts.

The Administrator will promptly provide the Public Agency with notice of any such required prepayment. SECTION 5.07. OBLIGATIONS UNCONDITIONAL. Except as provided in Section 5.01 hereof, the obligation of the Public Agency to make Loan Repayments and payment of any other amounts required hereunder from Designated Revenues and to perform and observe the other covenants and agreements contained herein shall be absolute and unconditional in all events. Notwithstanding any dispute between the Public Agency and the Commission, the Trustee, the Bank, the Administrator or any Noteholder, the Public Agency shall pay the Loan Repayments or any other amounts when due and such obligations shall not be abated, rebated, set-off, reduced, abrogated, terminated, waived, diminished, postponed, or otherwise modified in any manner or to any extent whatsoever and the Public Agency shall not withhold any such payments pending final resolution of such dispute nor shall the Public Agency assert any right of setoff, recoupment, abatement, or counterclaim against its obligation to make such payments required under this Loan Agreement.

STATUS OF LOAN OBLIGATIONS. Anything in this Loan Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, it is understood and agreed that the ad valorem taxing power and the full faith and credit of the Public Agency has not been pledged to secure the obligations of the Public Agency hereunder, except to the extent ad valorem taxes are pledged pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof. Neither the Commission, the Bank, the Administrator, the Trustee nor the Holders of the Notes shall have any right to compel the exercise of any ad valorem taxing power of the Public Agency to pay the obligations owing hereunder except to the extent ad valorem taxes are pledged pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof. The obligations of the Public Agency under this Loan Agreement, including Loan Repayments and all other payments, shall be payable solely from Designated Revenues in accordance with the terms hereof The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination and/or assignment of this Loan Agreement. SECTION 6.02. SECURITY FOR LOAN REPAYMENTS. The Public Agency's obligation to repay the Loan Repayments shall be secured by a pledge of and lien on the Designated Revenues. The Pledged Revenues, which are part of the Designated Revenues, shall be pledged to the payment of the Loan Repayments in accordance with Section 6.03 hereof. The Public Agency hereby irrevocably pledges and grants a lien upon the Designated Revenues to the payment of the Loan Repayments in accordance with the provisions hereof SECTION 6.03. PLEDGED REVENUES. The Public Agency may, in its sole discretion, pledge certain of its funds to the payment of the Loan Repayments. Such Pledged Revenues shall be described in a resolution adopted by the Public Agency approving the Loan relating thereto. The pledge of and lien on such Pledged Revenues shall commence and terminate at such times and in accordance with the provisions of such resolution. The Public Agency may provide for the termination and defeasance of the pledge of and lien on such Pledged Revenues in accordance with the terms of any such resolution. The terms and provisions of any resolution shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator and the Bank. At or prior to the pledge of any Pledged Revenues the Public Agency shall submit to the Administrator and the Bank (a) a certified copy of the resolution or ordinance of the Public Agency pledging such Pledged Revenues and (b) an opinion of Counsel to the Public Agency or Bond Counsel to the effect that the resolution or ordinance pledging such Pledged Revenues has been duly adopted and is enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to standard bankruptcy exceptions and the like). SECTION 6.04. COVENANT TO BUDGET AND APPROPRIATE. (a) Until all Loan Repayments and other amounts owing hereunder are paid or deemed paid pursuant to the provisions of this Loan Agreement,the Public Agency hereby covenants to appropriate in its annual budget, by amendment if necessary, from Non-Ad Valorem 28 Revenues lawfully available in each fiscal year of the Public Agency in which principal or interest on the Loan Repayments and other amounts owing hereunder becomes due and payable, amounts sufficient, together with other available moneys, to pay the Loan Repayments and other amounts owing hereunder, as the same become due (whether by redemption, at maturity or otherwise). Such covenant and agreement on the part of the Public Agency to budget and appropriate such amounts of Non-Ad Valorem Revenues shall be cumulative to the extent not paid, and shall continue until such Non-Ad Valorem Revenues or other legally available funds in amounts sufficient to make all such required payments hereunder shall have been budgeted, appropriated and actually paid. Once such Non-Ad Valorem Revenues are so budgeted and appropriated, the same shall constitute "Public Agency Moneys" hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing covenant of the Public Agency,the Public Agency does not covenant to maintain any services or programs, now provided or maintained by the Public Agency, which generate Non-Ad Valorem Revenues. (b) Such covenant to budget and appropriate does not create any lien upon or pledge of such Non-Ad Valorem Revenues, nor does it preclude the Public Agency from pledging in the future its Non-Ad Valorem Revenues,nor does it require the Public Agency to levy and collect any particular Non-Ad Valorem Revenues, nor does it give the Bank, the Commission, the Administrator, the Trustee or the Noteholders a prior claim on the Non-Ad Valorem Revenues as opposed to claims of general creditors of the Public Agency. Such covenant to appropriate Non-Ad Valorem Revenues is subject in all respects to the payment of obligations secured by a pledge of such Non-Ad Valorem Revenues heretofore or hereinafter entered into (including the payment of debt service on bonds and other debt instruments). Such covenant to budget and appropriate Non-Ad Valorem Revenues shall not in any way detract from the pledge of and lien on the Pledged Revenues, if any, provided herein. However, the covenant to budget and appropriate in its general annual budget for the purposes and in the manner stated herein shall have the effect of making available for the payment of the Loan Repayments and other amounts owing hereunder in the manner described herein Non-Ad Valorem Revenues and placing on the Public Agency a positive duty to appropriate and budget, by amendment, if necessary, amounts sufficient to meet its obligations hereunder; subject, however, to the payment of services and programs which are for essential public purposes affecting the health, welfare and safety of the inhabitants of the Public Agency or which are legally mandated by applicable law; and subject, further, to the provisions of Section 129.07, Florida Statutes, insofar as there are not sufficient Non-Ad Valorem Revenues to comply with such covenant to budget and appropriate after the satisfaction of the funding requirements for obligations having an express lien on or pledge of such revenues and the funding requirements for legally mandated or essential governmental services and programs of the Public Agency. (c) During such time as any Loan Amounts are outstanding hereunder(including but not limited to at the time of issuance or incurrence of additional indebtedness which is secured by any Non-Ad Valorem Revenues or is payable from a covenant to budget and 29 appropriate legally available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues that is similar to the one set forth herein)which are secured by the covenant to budget and appropriate legally available Non- Ad Valorem Revenues, the Public Agency agrees and covenants with the Commission and the Bank that: (i) Non-Ad Valorem Revenues (average of actual receipts over the prior two years) must cover projected maximum annual debt service on Debt secured by and/or payable from any Non-Ad Valorem Revenues by at least 1.5x; and(ii)projected maximum annual debt service requirements for all Debt secured by and/or payable from any Non-Ad Valorem Revenues will not exceed 20% of Governmental Fund Revenues (defined as general fund, special fund, debt service fund and capital projects funds), exclusive of(i) ad valorem revenues restricted to payment of debt service on any Debt and (ii) any Debt proceeds, and based on the Public Agency's audited financial statements. For the purposes of these covenants maximum annual debt service means the lesser of the actual maximum annual debt service on all Debt or 15%of the original par amount of the Debt, in each case, secured by or payable from Public Agency Non-Ad Valorem Revenues. The Public Agency agrees that, as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year, it shall deliver to the Bank a certificate setting forth the calculations of the financial ratios provided in this Section 6.04(c) and certifying that it is in compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.04(c). For purposes of the foregoing covenant, all Debt (including Loans hereunder) bearing interest at a variable rate shall be assumed to bear interest at the higher of 6.00% per annum or the actual interest rate borne during the month immediately preceding the date of calculation and shall be assumed to amortize on a level basis over 20 years. Notwithstanding the foregoing covenant, for purposes of calculating annual debt service on any Loan hereunder for which a Draw has been funded, such Loan shall be assumed to be fully funded. (d) The covenant to budget and appropriate provided in this Section may, with the consent of the Administrator and the Bank, be released in lieu of the pledge of Pledged Revenues as provided in Section 6.02 hereof. The release of such covenant shall be evidenced by a certificate executed by the Public Agency and approved in writing by the Bank and the Administrator. SECTION 6.05. PAYMENT COVENANT. The Public Agency covenants that it shall duly and punctually pay from Designated Revenues the Loan Repayments and other amounts owing hereunder at the dates and place and in the manner provided herein.

(ii) In addition, to the extent allowed by law, the Public Agency will reimburse all other Public Agencies participating in the Pooled Commercial Paper Program to the extent the Public Agency has committed any act or failed to commit an act and the result of such action or failure to act is that the cost of participating in the Pooled Commercial Paper Program of such Public Agencies is increased. Such reimbursement includes, without limitation, any increased costs incurred by other participating Public Agencies as a result of the Public Agency failing to make a Repayment or any other payment hereunder when due. (iii) The provisions of this Section 6.06(e) shall survive the termination of this Loan Agreement. (f) Further Assurance.

(g) Use of the Projects.

(h) Special Covenants.

(j) Tax Exempt Status of Commercial Paper Notes. (i) The Commission and the Public Agency understand that it is the intention hereof that the interest on the Commercial Paper Notes be excluded from the gross income of the Holders thereof for federal income tax purposes. In furtherance thereof, the Public Agency agrees that so long as any Loans are Outstanding under this Agreement it will take all action within its control which is necessary in order for the interest on the Commercial Paper Notes to be excluded from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation (other than those Series B Notes held by a person who is deemed a "substantial user" of a Project or a "related person" to a "substantial user" of a Project within the meaning of Section 147(a) of the Code) and shall refrain from taking any action which results in such interest becoming so taxable.

By: Authorized Signatory 46 EXHIBIT A OPINION OF PUBLIC AGENCY'S COUNSEL IN CONNECTION WITH LOAN [Letterhead of Counsel to Public Agency] [Date of the Draw] Florida Local Government JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.. Finance Commission as Letter of Credit Provider Tallahassee, Florida Orlando, Florida U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee Nabors, Giblin&Nickerson, P.A. Orlando, Florida Tampa, Florida Gentlemen: I am counsel to Collier County, Florida (the "Public Agency"), and have been requested by the Public Agency to give this opinion in connection with a loan in the principal amount of $ (the "Loan") by the Florida Local Government Finance Commission (the "Commission") to the Public Agency of funds to finance, refinance or reimburse the cost of (the "Project") [the Public Agency Expenses (as defined in the hereinafter defined Loan Agreement] pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, dated as of (the "Loan Agreement"),among the Commission,the Public Agency and JPMorgan Chase Bank,N.A. In this connection, I have reviewed such records, certificates and other documents as I have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion, including Chapter 125,Florida Statutes, Chapter 163,Florida Statutes, and other applicable provision of law, the relevant resolutions or ordinances adopted by the Board of County Commissioners of the Public Agency approving the Loan(collectively, the "Resolution"), the Loan Agreement and the Trust Indenture, dated as of June 6, 2011, (the "Indenture"), between the Commission and U.S. Bank,National Association, as Trustee. Based on such review and such investigation as I have deemed necessary and such other consideration of law and fact as I believe to be relevant, I am of the opinion that: 1. The Public Agency is a duly constituted political subdivision of the State of Florida ("State"), validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State, is not in violation of any provision of law material to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Agreement and the Loan, and has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver A-1 the Loan Agreement and the Loan Note or Notes (as defined in the Loan Agreement) related to the Project [Public Agency Expenses], to enter into the Loan and to acquire, construct and equip the Project [finance the Public Agency Expenses]. 2. No approval, authorization, consent or other order of any governmental entity or of any court, public board or body (other than those already obtained), and no approving referendum of the qualified electors of the Public Agency, is legally required for the Public Agency to enter into and perform its obligations under the Loan Agreement and the Loan Note related to the Project [Public Agency Expenses]. 3. The Public Agency has the requisite power to acquire, construct and equip the Project [finance the Public Agency Expenses] and to enter into the Loan Agreement and the Loan and has duly authorized the execution and delivery of the Loan Agreement and the Loan Note related to the Project [Public Agency Expenses] and receipt of the Loan. The Public Agency is duly authorized to use the proceeds of the Loan to finance, refinance or reimburse the costs of acquiring, constructing and equipping the Project [finance the Public Agency Expenses]. 4. The Loan Agreement creates a valid pledge of and lien upon the Designated Revenues (as defined in the Loan Agreement). 5. Neither the execution and delivery of the Loan Agreement, receipt of the Loan nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, nor the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement conflicts with or results in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Constitution or laws of the State (including any limit on indebtedness), or any corporate restriction or any agreement, instrument or governmental or court order to which the Public Agency is now a party or by which it is bound or constitutes a default under any of the foregoing. 6. The Public Agency has obtained all permits and approvals required by any court, governmental body or officer for the execution and delivery of the Loan Agreement and the Loan Note related to the Project [Public Agency Expenses] and receipt of the Loan; the Public Agency has complied with any applicable provisions of law requiring any notification, declaration, filing or registration with any court, governmental body or officer in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Agreement, the Loan Note related to the Project [Public Agency Expenses] and the Loan. 7. The Loan Agreement and the Loan Note related to the Project [Public Agency Expenses] have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered, are in full force and effect, and each is a valid and legally binding obligation of the Public Agency, enforceable in accordance with its respective terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by laws relating to the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Public Agency or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally or by general principles of equity. A-2 8. To the best of my knowledge (based upon due inquiry and investigation), there is no litigation or legal or governmental action, proceeding, inquiry or investigation pending or threatened by judicial or governmental authorities to which the Public Agency is a party or any property of the Public Agency is subject, which, if determined adversely to the Public Agency, would individually or in the aggregate (a) adversely affect the validity or the enforceability of the Loan Agreement, the Loan Note related to the Project [Public Agency Expenses] or the Loan, (b) otherwise materially and adversely affect the ability of the Public Agency to comply with its obligations under the Loan Agreement or the Loan Note related to the Project [Public Agency Expenses], or (c) materially and adversely affect the acquisition, construction and equipping of the Project [financing of the Public Agency Expenses]. 9. The Public Agency is subject to suit in a court of competent jurisdiction by the Trustee or the Commission for the failure to pay any amounts due and owing by the Public Agency under, or the failure to perform any obligation required by, the Loan Agreement and the Public Agency is not entitled to the defense of sovereign immunity or any other comparable defense in any such suit. 10. The Resolution has been duly adopted and is valid and binding upon the Public Agency in accordance with the terms thereof, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by laws relating to bankruptcy or insolvency of the Public Agency or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally or by general principles of equity. [Additional opinions regarding the Pledged Revenues, if any, including the validity, enforceability and priority thereof as may be required by the Administrator, the Bank or the Trustee.] All capitalized terms used in this opinion but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.
