On March 14,1986,the Chairman and Ranking Members of the United States House of Representatives Committee on Ways and Means and the United States Senate Committee on Finance, and the Secretary of the Treasury,issued a joint statement(the"Joint Statement")endorsing a postponement until September 1,1986(or the date of enactment of tax reform legislation,if earlier)of any application of all provisions and restrictions of H.R.3838 relating to certain tai exempt financings,which would include the Bonds, except for yield calculation provisions; temporary periods on advance refundings and alternative minimum tax provisions applicable to property and casualty insurance companies. Such endorsement is not binding on the members of Congress. The Senate Committee on Finance (the "SCF") voted on May 6, 1986 to submit to the U.S. Senate amendment to H.R. 3838 as passed by the House of Representatives. The amendments include a provision that would classify, as a tax preference item for the purpose of computing an alternative minimum tax, 20% of one-half of the excess of a corporation's reported profits in excess of its minimum tax base.If this provision should be enacted into law,one-half of the interest on the Bonds held by corporations would constitute a tax preference. The tax exempt status of interest on the Bonds(except for any tax preference provisions generally applicable to corporations)will not be adversely affected by the pending federal tax legislation as set forth in H.R.3838,or as amended by SCF,in the event the postponement provisions of the Joint Statement are finally enacted by Congress.Bond Counsel will express no opinion as to the federal tax exemption with respect to the Bonds inthe event H.R. 3838, as finally passed by Congress,is enacted without the incorporation of a postponement of effective dates as set forth in the Joint Statement,or in the event H.R.3838 is otherwise enacted in modified form,or in the event that other legislation affecting the Bonds is enacted; nor will Bond Counsel express any opinion as to whether any particular congressional action with respect to effective dates,or the substantive requirements of H.R. 3838 applicable to the Bonds will be followed in the enactment thereof. Insurance The City has applied for and expects to obtain a commitment for insurance which may be obtained at the option of the successful bidder. Disclosure Requirements Section 218.38(1)(b)(1), Florida Statutes, (Supp. 1982), requires that the City file, within 120 days after delivery of the Bonds, an information statement with the Division of Bond Finance of the State of Florida (the "Division") containing the following information: (a) the name and address of the managing underwriter, if any, connected with the Bond issue; (b) the name and address of any attorney or financial consultant who advised the City with respect to the Bond issue; (c).any fee, bonus or gratuity paid by any underwriter or financial consultant, in connection with the Bond issue,to any person not regularly employed or engaged by such underwriter or consultant;and(d)any other fee paid by the City with respect to the Bond issue, including any fee paid to attorneys or financial consultants.
