hshed and p~oposed Regulations ~ssued thereunder
We have further examined the terms of the bonds to be ~ssued, including principal and interest require-
ments thereon, the terms of their sale, and the costs associated therewith We have examined the schedules
of obbgatmns to be acqmred w~th the proceeds of the ~ssue, ~ncludmg principal amouuts, coupons thereon, the
terms of purchase, and the costs associated therewith
We have independently computed "y~eld" on both the mumc~pal obhgatmns, and the obhgatlons acquired
w~th the proceeds of thas ~ssuance, ~n accordance w~th the methods of computing y~eld set forth ~n Section
