hereto, is to furnish information concerning Okaloosa County, Florida (the "County"), its

$ * Airport Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2013 (AMT) (the "Series 2013 Bonds").
All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in
APPENDIX B.
The Series 2013 Bonds will be issued pursuant to Chapter 125, Part I, Chapter 332, and
Sections 215.84, 215.431 and 218.385, Florida Statutes, as amended from time to time, and other
applicable provisions of law (the "Act"), and a Master Indenture of Trust (the "Master
Indenture"), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, each dated as of August 1,
2003, by and between the County and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as predecessor trustee, as
supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture (the "Second Supplemental Indenture), by
and between the County and The Bank of New York, New York, New York, as predecessor
trustee, dated as of December 1, 2007, and as further supplemented by the Third Supplemental
Indenture (the "Third Supplemental Indenture"), by and between the County and The Bank of
New York Mellon Trust Company, as successor trustee (the "Trustee"), dated as of November 1,
2013 (collectively called the "Indenture"). The Series 2013 Bonds are to be issued and secured
by a pledge of and lien upon the Trust Estate under the Master Indenture, consisting primarily of
Net Revenues derived from the operation of the County's Airports System. In addition, the Series
2013 Bonds are secured by a lien upon and pledge of a portion of the revenues derived from a

Taxable Airport Revenue Bonds, Series 2007 (the "Series 2007 Bonds"), secured by the Net

Bonds and any additional bonds which may be issued under the Indenture on a parity therewith
("Additional Bonds") are herein sometimes collectively referred to as the "Bonds".

certain amounts with respect to the Debt Service Reserve Fund established thereby.
