75 <br /> of the County; provided that(1) any such modification may only be made in connection with a change in <br /> circumstances that arises from a change in legal requirements, change in law or change in the identity, <br /> nature or status of the County; (2)the information to be provided, as modified,would have complied with <br /> the requirements of the Rule 15c2-12 as of the date of this Official Statement,after taking into account any <br /> amendments or interpretations of the Rule 15c2-12, as well as any changes in circumstances; and (3) any <br /> such modification does not materially impair the interest of the Owners or the beneficial owners, as <br /> determined by the Trustee or nationally recognized bond counsel or by the approving vote of the Owners <br /> of a majority in principal amount of the 2020 Bonds. Any annual financial information containing modified <br /> operating data or financial information will explain,in narrative form,the reasons for the modification and <br /> the impact of the change in the type of operating data or financial information being provided. <br /> The County's Rule 15c2-12 undertakings will terminate on payment, or provision having been <br /> made for payment in a manner consistent with the Rule 15c2-12, in full of the principal and interest with <br /> respect to the 2020 Bonds. <br /> THE COUNTY'S CONTINUING DISCLOSURE COMPLIANCE <br /> [To be reviewed/confirmed] During the past five years,the County has not failed to comply in all <br /> material respects with the terms of its prior undertakings under Rule 15c2-12, except as described in the <br /> following paragraphs. <br /> The County had certain disclosure information that was due to be posted by January 31,2017,with <br /> respect to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. At that deadline, however, the County's CAFR(including <br /> its audit) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, was not yet available. Prior to the deadline, the County <br /> posted certain unaudited financial statements as called for by the terms of its continuing disclosure <br /> undertakings. In this posting, however, by oversight, the County did not post its adopted budget or the <br /> supplemental financial information as required by its continuing disclosure undertakings. The County <br /> posted such required supplemental financial information in March 2017 and its adopted budget in October <br /> 2017. Additionally,for some years,while the County timely posted its annual disclosures on EMMA,such <br /> annual disclosures were not always properly linked to each of the County's CUSIP numbers. <br /> In April 2019,the County determined that it had in some circumstances inadvertently failed to post <br /> on the EMMA system information regarding its approved County budget for the 2018-19 fiscal year, as <br /> required by some of the County's continuing disclosure obligations,although the County's CAFR included <br /> some budget information.Upon becoming aware of this issue,the County promptly moved to properly link <br /> the required budget information to all relevant CUSIP numbers. <br /> The County has filed notices of failure to file the items described above as required by Rule 15c2- <br /> 12,which describe the occasions of non-compliance and corrected compliance. <br /> The County is not aware of any other occasions in which it was in material noncompliance with <br /> any of its continuing disclosure undertakings.The County has not knowingly failed to comply with its prior <br /> continuing disclosure undertakings. The County believes that at this point, it has filed all the financial <br /> information that its previous commitments require,and that all required financial information is posted with <br /> regard to all relevant CUSIP numbers. <br /> UNDERWRITING <br /> The Underwriters have agreed under the terms of a Bond Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase <br /> Agreement")to purchase all of the 2020 Bonds,if any of the 2020 Bonds are to be purchased,at a purchase <br /> price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2020 Bonds, plus/less net original issue <br /> 21 <br />
