The Borrower desires to complete a project consisting of financing the (i) construction of an approximately 8,542 square foot addition for classrooms (the "Addition") to the Borrower's existing approximately 28,820 square foot school facility located at 916 Pine Street in the City of Manitowoc, Wisconsin (the "Facility"), (ii) renovation and improvements to the Facility's existing locker room and parking lot, (iii) acquisition and installation of equipment for the Addition and the Facility, (iv) capitalized interest during the construction period, and (v) payment of professional fees and costs of issuance (collectively, the "Project"), all of which will advance the Borrower's exempt purpose. The Borrower has represented that the net number of full-time equivalent jobs which the Project is expected to create on the Project site is 1.

THE BONDS SHALL NEVER CONSTITUTE AN INDEBTEDNESS OF THE ISSUER, NOR SHALL THE BONDS GIVE RISE TO ANY PECUNIARY LIABILITY OF THE ISSUER, NOR SHALL THE BONDS BE A CHARGE AGAINST THE GENERAL CREDIT OR TAXING POWERS OF THE ISSUER. RATHER, THE BONDS SHALL BE PAYABLE SOLELY FROM THE REVENUES AND OTHER AMOUNTS TO BE DERIVED PURSUANT TO THE REVENUE AGREEMENT RELATING TO SAID PROJECT TO BE ENTERED INTO BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE BORROWER.
The Initial Resolution may be inspected in the office of the City Clerk at 900 Quay Street, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, during business hours.
