The term “related <br />party” for purposes of this certificate generally means any two or more persons who have greater than 50 <br />percent common ownership, directly or indirectly. <br />(h) Underwriter means: (i) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract with the <br />Authority and the City (or with the lead underwriter to form an underwriting syndicate) to participate in the <br />initial sale of the Bonds to the Public; and (ii) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract directly <br />or indirectly with a person described in clause (i) of this paragraph to participate in the initial sale of the <br />Bonds to the Public (including a member of a selling group or a party to a third party distribution agreement <br />participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public). <br />4. Yield. <br />Siebert has been asked by the Authority, the City, and Bond Counsel to calculate the arbitrage yield <br />of the Bonds under Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Bond Counsel has <br />advised us that the yield on the Bonds is to be computed under the economic accrual method using an <br />assumed 30-day month/360-day year and semiannual compounding. The Authority and the City have <br />advised us that no other transaction (such as a guarantee of the Bonds, an interest rate swap or other hedge) <br />is to be factored into the computation of the yield on the Bonds, that the Bonds are first callable at par at <br />the option of the Authority on April 1, 20__, and that none of the Bonds are subject to optional redemption <br />by Authority within nine years of the date hereof. <br />Based on the above methodology, we has provided the attached Schedule C to the Authority and <br />the City regarding computing yield on the Bonds. <br />The undersigned reminds you that we are not accountants or actuaries, nor are we engaged in the <br />practice of law. Accordingly, while we believe the calculations described above to be correct, we do not <br />warrant them to be so, nor do we warrant their validity for purposes of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 <br />of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. <br />
