Dublin, Ohio - 3 - SUPPLEMENTAL FISCAL OFFICER'S CERTIFICATE To the Council of the City of Dublin, Ohio: As fiscal officer of the City of Dublin, and supplementing my certificate of November 21, 1988, I certify in connection with your proposed issue of $1,200,000 notes (the Notes) , to be issued in anticipation of the issuance of bonds (the Bonds) for the purpose of paying costs of constructing a swilllIling pool, bath houses, a pump house and a concession stand, acquiring furnishings and equipment therefor, and making related site improvements, together with necessary appurtenances thereto (the improvement), that: 1. The estimated life or usefulness of the improvement is at least five years. 2. The maximum maturity of the Bonds, calculated in accordance with Section 133.20 of the Revised Code, is 21 years. That maximum maturity is based on my calculation of the average number of years of usefulness of the improvement as measured by the weighted average of the amounts proposed to be expended for the several classes of the improvement as follows: $911,222 for buildings and other structures, 25 years; and $288,778 for equipment, furnishings and site improvements, 10 years; the weighted average is therefore 21 years. If notes in anticipation of the Bonds are outstanding for a period in excess of five years from the date of the orig inal issue of notes, the period in excess of five years shall be deducted from that maximum maturity of the Bonds. 3. The maximum maturity of the Notes is December 9, 2007, provided that their maximum maturity is one year if the Notes are sold at private sale. Dated: June 5, 1989 ~' . .
