THE 2025 BONDS AUTHORIZATION The County is issuing the 2025 Bonds pursuant to the provisions of Section 20 of Chapter 160A of the North Carolina General Statutes and Article 8 of Chapter 159 of the North Carolina General Statutes, each as amended(collectively, the "Act"), and a resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the County adopted on May 20,2025. Each 2025 Bond will be deemed an"installment contract"under the Act. In addition, the County's issuance of the 2025 Bonds is expected to be approved by the North Carolina Local Government Commission(the"LGC") on June 3, 2025. The LGC is a division of the State Treasurer's office charged with general oversight of local government finance in the State of North Carolina (the "State"). LGC approval is required for substantially all bond issues and other local government financing arrangements in the State. Before approving an installment financing (which includes the financing arrangement for the 2025 Bonds), the LGC must determine, among other things, that (1) the proposed financing is necessary and expedient, (2)the financing,under the circumstances, is preferable to a general obligation or revenue bond issue for the same purpose, and (3) the sums to fall due under the proposed financing are not excessive for the local government. GENERAL Payment Terms. The 2025 Bonds will be dated their date of delivery. Interest on the 2025 Bonds is payable on each April 1 and October 1 (the "Payment Dates"), beginning October 1, 2025, at the rates set forth on the inside front cover page of this Official Statement(calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months).

See Appendix E, "BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM" hereto. The Trust Agreement describes provisions for transfer and exchange applicable if a book-entry system is no longer in effect. These provisions generally provide that the transfer of the 2025 Bonds is registrable by the Owners thereof, and the 2025 Bonds may be exchanged for an equal aggregate, unredeemed principal amount of 2025 Bonds of the authorized denomination and of the same maturity and interest rate, only upon presentation and surrender of the 2025 Bonds to the Trustee at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee together with an executed instrument of transfer in a form approved by the Trustee in connection with any transfer. The Trustee may require the person requesting any transfer or exchange to reimburse it for any shipping and tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 4
