SUBJ: THDA Board Update

THDA Board Members,

We look forward to seeing you in Nashville for our Board Meeting May 24. This will likely be the

final meeting for two of our members - Benjie Shuler and John Baker - and on behalf of THDA

staff I thank them for their service.

This month we will ask you to create a standing committee to review our rental housing programs.

These Federal programs do not fit with our existing committees, and we think it will be helpful to

have a place where we can inform you of issues and federal challenges.

We ask your authorization for our second bond issuance of the year, along with the reimbursement

resolution that accompanies it. More info is behind the Bond Finance Committee tab. The

committee will also take up our plan of financing for next fiscal year.

Grants Committee will consider the commendations for awards from the Trust Fund, HOME and

ESG programs.

The Tax Credit Committee will hear appeals of its review notices May 23.

Director of Loan Servicing Steve Fisher will offer an update on our progress.

Please let me know if you have questions about anything in your packet, and let Cindy Ripley

know if you need assistance with travel arrangements.

Operating Income: This number reflects THDA’s operating income for the financial year through the end of the previous quarter (not including changes in the fair value of investments).

Mr. Lillard indicated the next item for consideration was the sale of Issue 2016-1 Bonds. He recognized Lynn Miller, THDA Chief Legal Counsel, who presented the following documents for the Committee’s consideration:

Memo from CSG Advisors Incorporated (“CSG”), financial advisor for THDA, dated April 13, 2016, recommending that the described pricing for Issue 2016-1 be accepted.

Resolution of the Bond Finance Committee approving the issuance and sale of Issue 2016-1A (AMT) in the aggregate principal amount of $24,060,000 and Issue 2016-1B (Non-AMT) in the aggregate principal amount of $100,940,000 (the “Award Resolution”). The following documents were attached to the Award Resolution as exhibits and were incorporated by reference:

o Bond Purchase Agreement for the sale of Issue 2016-1 Bonds to the underwriting syndicate, led by RBC Capital Markets, LLC (“RBC”), the bookrunning senior manager;

o Supplemental Resolution for the Issue 2016-1 Bonds; and

o Bond Maturity Schedule showing the maturities and interest rates for the Issue 2016-1 Bonds.

Ms. Miller noted that THDA offered bonds in the amount of $125 million. Retail orders totaled approximately $46 million. The longer maturities, including both PAC bonds, were oversubscribed which allowed for interest rate reductions on the longest maturities and resulted in the creation of $7.6 million in zeroes rather than the utilization of zeros to maintain the current 3.99% interest rate. Prior to the bond sale, it was initially projected that approximately $5.2 million in zeroes would be needed to maintain the 3.99% interest rate.

Ms. Miller called on Tim Rittenhouse and David Jones, with CSG, who participated by conference call, to provide an overview of market conditions. Mr. Rittenhouse noted the sale was led by RBC and included a refunding of Issue 2006-3. During pre-pricing discussions, RBC reported interest in certain bonds by Liberty Mutual Insurance Company which allowed serial bonds from 2028 to 2031 to replace the 2031 term bond, resulting in interest savings to THDA. In addition, RBC received an initial indication from AIG that they would purchase all of the 2036 term bonds, totaling approximately $25 million. Retail orders were stronger than CSG had seen with many other housing finance agencies this year and the strength of the order flow allowed reductions of maturities in both of the PAC bonds as well as a number of other serial maturities. CSG stated that it was a very successful sale and recommended approval of the sale. Ms. Miller noted that during the pricing, RBC indicated that the THDA bonds were pricing as well, if not better, than AAA-rated bonds and mortgage-backed security structures with PACs. Mr. Rittenhouse and Mr. Jones concurred.

Ms. Miller indicated the action of the Committee was to approve the Award Resolution. She noted that an amendment was needed to add the Treasurer to paragraph 4 of the Award Resolution so that he would be authorized to execute the Bond Purchase Agreement.

Mr. Turner moved approval of the Award Resolution and Mr. Wilson seconded. Mr. Lillard asked for a motion to adopt the recommended amendment to paragraph 4 of the Award Resolution. Mr. Turner moved to adopt the amendment to the Award Resolution and Mr. Wilson seconded.

Mr. Lillard called for a roll call vote for adoption of the amendment:

ASSUMPTIONS

1. A bond issue may include any structure authorized by the Board and approved by the Bond Finance Committee, including, without limitation, convertible option bonds, short term notes, variable rate debt, taxable debt, planned amortization class bonds.

2. Dates of bond issues are based on estimated absorption of available funds and expected need for additional funds for three to four months, subject to the actual rate at which mortgage loans are currently being financed.

3. THDA anticipates taking the maximum spread allowed under federal law for each bond issue, which is 112 basis points. The maximum spread could, however, be reduced based on program requirements at the time of sale. Interest rates for THDA loans could be further subsidized.

4. THDA anticipates future bonds will be issued under the 2013 General Resolution to continue to reduce the moral obligation of the state for THDA bonds.

5. The volume cap assumption is that 35% of the annual total tax-exempt bond authority amount available in Tennessee is made available to THDA at the beginning of each calendar year. This is the allocation to THDA for all tax-exempt housing bond issuance in the state in the current Department of Economic and Community Development plan. For bond issues in calendar year 2016, volume cap carried forward from 2013 will be used. THDA currently has $593,169,126 in 2013 carried forward volume cap available. For bond issues in calendar year 2017, volume cap THDA carried forward from 2014 will be used. THDA currently has $624,523,000 in 2014 carried forward volume cap available. Unused 2013 volume cap will be made available for the THDA Mortgage Credit Certificate Program by making the required elections on or before December 31, 2016.

6. A THDA contribution may be made with each bond issue as needed to over-collateralize the bond issue for the benefit of THDA borrowers, to fund required reserves, to pay cost of issuance and to ensure that the maximum amount of bond proceeds is used to fund mortgage loans. The amount and source of the THDA contribution is determined at the time it is needed. The amount of the contribution, if needed, is based on the structure of the bond issues, an analysis of debt service requirements of the general resolution under which the bonds are issued, the fee paid to underwriters and an estimate of other costs of issuance expected to be incurred. The source of such THDA contribution is funds available for such purpose under the 2013 General Resolution, 1985 General Resolution or the 2009 General Resolution.

MEMORANDUM

TO: THDA Board of Directors and THDA Bond Finance Committee FROM: Tim Rittenhouse, David Jones, Mark Kaveny & Eric Olson SUBJECT: Bond Issue Authorization Recommendation RE: Residential Finance Program Bonds, Issue 2016-2 DATE: May 9, 2016

Current Market Conditions Since THDA’s last bond sale on April 13, 2016, interest rates have edged higher with the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond ranging between 1.76% and 1.94% and settling at 1.78%, as of the Friday, May 6 market closing. High-quality tax-exempt Municipal Market Data Index (“MMD”) yields have risen slightly over the same period year, with the 10-year yield rising from 1.60% to 1.66% and the 30-yield climbing from 2.54% to 2.63%. The gradual strengthening of the US economy, the Federal Reserve’s patience in delaying further increases in its overnight borrowing rate (following its 0.25% mid-December rise) to accommodate greater weakness and instability in the Chinese economy and more aggressive actions by central banks in Europe and Japan – all have been key drivers of bond market rates during this period.

Executive Summary

CSG recommends that the THDA Board of Directors and THDA Bond Finance Committee authorize a $125 million Issue 2016-2 under the Residential Housing Finance Program Bond General Resolution to fund THDA’s mortgage loan pipeline.

Staff expects to begin meeting continuing mortgage commitments with available THDA cash

in late June or early July.

Preliminarily, Issue 2016-2 is expected to be sold in early to mid-August for a closing in September.

Issue 2016-2 is not expected to include a refunding component, due to current refunding rules,

but the benefits of the issue may be increased from the transfer of an amount of unencumbered seasoned THDA mortgages or other resources from THDA’s 1985 General Resolution. Alternative structures will be analyzed and presented closer to pricing.

THDA RFPB Issues 2016-2 Bond Issue Authorization Recommendation CSG Advisors Incorporated May 9, 2016

Background On April 13, 2016, THDA priced Residential Finance Program Bonds, Issue 2016-1 in the amount of $125,000,000. Of this amount $24,060,000 refunded prior Homeownership Program Bonds and the balance will be used to purchase new mortgage loans and pay other required amounts. THDA expects to commit all remaining Issue 2016-1 proceeds before the end of June 2016. When the Issue 2016-1 proceeds are exhausted, THDA will begin to purchase mortgage loans using available THDA funds, expecting that such advances will be reimbursed with proceeds of Issue 2016-2. By the end of August THDA anticipates building a pipeline of up to $73 million of mortgage loans, committing $30 to $40 million per month in new mortgage loans. Staff expects THDA has sufficient available funds on hand to continue purchasing mortgage loans through mid-September, when additional bond funds likely will be needed. Prior THDA bonds will not become optionally redeemable until January 1, 2017, when THDA may again have the opportunity to refund bonds attractively under a common plan of finance with a “new money” portion of a transaction, market conditions permitting. Including a refunding with new money bonds at that time may allow THDA to offer lower mortgage rates, preserve zero participation loans, and maximize THDA’s allowable spread. In the absence of an attractive refunding opportunity as part of Issue 2016-2, transferring unencumbered seasoned THDA mortgage collateral or other resources into the General Residential Finance Program Bond Resolution from the 1985 General Resolution is a structuring alternative that THDA may consider to lower bond interest costs and limit the need for zero participation loans, when final structuring decisions are made closer to pricing. Proposed Sizing and Structure for Issue 2016-2 Authorizing a bond issue of not to exceed $125 million would allow THDA to continue purchasing mortgage loans through mid-September 2016, relying on current forecasts and subject to changing loan demand.

Based on current market conditions and investor appetite, structuring Issue 2016-2 to include planned amortization class bonds (“PACs”) to be sold at a premium would significantly lower the issue’s bond yield. PACs are often priced at a premium and most commonly designed with an expected five-year average life, assuming future prepayment speeds over a broad range. Prepayments up to 100% PSA would be directed first to redeeming the PACs until they are completely retired. Due to the projected short and stable average life and the high coupon on the PACs, institutional investors accept much lower yields than for conventional term bonds with the same maturity.

A possible concern with the use of PACs is that actual prepayments could occur at a sustained rate below 100% PSA, causing the PACs to remain outstanding longer than projected and potentially extending the period during which THDA would pay the high coupon on these bonds. However, THDA’s average historical prepayment speed is greater than 150% PSA. Also, if the actual sustained prepayment speed is less than 100% PSA, at its option THDA could choose to redeem the PACs up to the 100% PSA experience with other available funds in order to maintain the short average life of the PACs.

Three alternative bond structures are shown in Exhibit A, each for $125 million in “new money” bonds. In each case, after calculating an estimated bond yield, the spread for tax compliance purposes between the mortgage yield and the bond yield was determined. Then, the amount of zero participation loans

Page 31: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

needed to bring the issue up to the maximum allowable tax spread of 1.125% was computed, based on current bond interest rates and THDA’s current mortgage rates.

Scenario 1 looks at a level-debt issue with no PAC bonds. The spread for tax purposes is 0.60%. $16.8 million in zeros would be consumed to raise the issue to a full 1.125% spread.

Scenario 2 includes a non-AMT PAC bond. The lower yield on the PACs reduces the overall bond yield by 0.293% and would result in a spread for tax purposes of 0.894%. The required amount of zeros would be $7.3 million.

Scenario 3 assumes $15 million in unencumbered, seasoned mortgages are transferred to Issue 2016-2 to over-collateralize and accelerate the repayment of the 2016-2 bonds. The structure also incorporates a non-AMT PAC. Since the added collateral allows for a shorter maturity schedule with a bigger PAC, the bond yield falls, the spread for tax purposes widens to 1.145%, and, currently, the transaction would be projected to create $0.8 million in new zeros.

Demand from institutional investors for housing bonds such as premium PACs has improved greatly in the years since the 2008 housing crisis. As the financing is developed, production needs are refined, and the proposed pricing date approaches, CSG will continue to evaluate the benefits of including PACs and other premium or discount bonds, or super-sinker bonds to evaluate if further refinement of the structure could offer an improvement in the pricing of Issue 2016-2. Issuing the bonds under the 2013 General Resolution will avoid the state moral obligation pledge on the Issue 2016-2 bonds.

Method of Sale

In the current market for housing bonds THDA will continue to benefit from offering its bonds via negotiated sale, rather than by competitive bid. Factors favoring a negotiated sale include:

Retail Sales / In-State Selling Group – THDA has enjoyed strong demand for its bonds among Tennessee retail investors with retail buyers often helping to set prices for institutions. Underwriting syndicate members with strong in-state marketing and distribution networks for bonds to retail investors have been an important component of support for THDA’s issues. Bonds not subject to the AMT have been and are expected to continue to appeal to retail investors. The presence of selling group members, who only earn a fee on bonds they sell, helps assure that competitive forces work in THDA’s interest during a negotiated sale. When housing bonds are sold via competitive bid, the winning bidder has little time or incentive to market bonds to retail investors or to involve smaller Tennessee-based broker-dealers. Compared to offerings with little retail participation, interest rate savings on bonds sold principally to retail investors typically range from 0.05% to 0.10%. THDA’s practice of elevating a top-performing member of the selling group to co-manager status on the next offering has reinforced retail support.

Market Volatility – A competitively bid bond issue requires that the timing and, to a significant extent, the final bond structure be established well in advance of the bid date. Continued market volatility and low housing bond volumes make it unlikely THDA could structure its bonds to obtain the lowest possible cost of debt in advance of pricing. A negotiated sale provides flexibility to price on shorter notice, to adjust the bond structure through the pricing in response to market factors and investor indications, or to delay or accelerate the pricing as conditions warrant.

Complexity and Credit – While investors are familiar with bonds issued by housing finance agencies, because the housing sector played a major role in the financial crisis, some investors have remained concerned about transactions financing whole loans and wary of making credit decisions solely based on

Page 32: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

THDA RFPB Issues 2016-2 Bond Issue Authorization Recommendation CSG Advisors Incorporated May 9, 2016

4

ratings. A negotiated sale provides greater opportunity to communicate with investors about the more complex structure and the credit features of THDA’s bonds.

Bond Structure – Though Issue 2016-2 is expected to be relatively straightforward for a traditional housing bond, it may be desirable to make changes to the structure close to the time of the bond sale in order to cater to the interests of certain investors, such as those interested in the PACs or in bonds priced at a premium or discount. A negotiated sale facilitates greater flexibility to make structural changes, as reflected in THDA’s offerings in the last year in which one institution’s willingness to buy long-dated serial bonds allowed THDA to realize savings versus the higher cost of an intermediate term bond.

Pricing Oversight – THDA’s policies and practices for negotiated bond sales – including the review of co-manager price views, consensus scales, comparable pricings, historic and current spreads, other current market data, and concurrent monitoring by the Office of State and Local Finance and CSG – provide THDA with the basis for confirming that its bonds are priced fairly at time of sale. In advance of the offering CSG also provides a pre-pricing memo with information related to general bond market conditions, the housing bond market, and projected interest rate levels based on recent housing bond issues, previous THDA offerings, pending statistical releases, and candid independent discussions with uninvolved third-party underwriting desks. In order to manage incentives for the syndicate members and investors, CSG also advises on syndicate rules and procedures, proposed holdbacks of specific maturities, and allotments of bonds.

Recommendations

CSG Advisors recommends that the THDA Board of Directors and THDA Bond Finance Committee:

Authorize the issuance and sale of Residential Finance Program Bonds, Issue 2016-2 with a par amount not to exceed $125 million;

Delegate to the Bond Finance Committee the authority to: o Establish the principal amount of Issue 2016-2, with the aggregate size of Issue 2016-

2 not to exceed $125 million; o Establish the structure, sub-series and pricing schedule of Issue 2016-2; o Approve long and shorter maturity bonds in any combination of fixed rate bonds not

to exceed a maturity of 32 years; and o Approve the transfer of up to $20 million of unencumbered seasoned THDA

mortgages or other resources from THDA’s 1985 General Resolution to over-collateralize Issue 2016-2.

Based on current market conditions and for the reasons described above, authorize Issue 2016-2 via a negotiated sale.

(4) the amount of Bonds which may be issued, the proceeds of which are necessary to meet demand for Program Loans;

(5) the availability of THDA’s funds, subject to the review of the Bond Finance Committee, for the purpose of providing for the payment of the costs of issuance of the Bonds, paying capitalized interest with respect to the Bonds, funding the Bond Reserve Fund, providing additional security for the Bonds, and achieving a lower rate of interest on the Program Loans; and

Tennessee Housing Development Agency Debt Management Policy

Approved November 29, 2011 Amended July 29, 2014, May 24, 2016

I. Background

The Tennessee Housing Development Agency (“THDA”) is a body, politic and corporate, and a political subdivision and instrumentality of the State of Tennessee (“State”). THDA was established under TCA Section 13-23-101 et seq. for the purpose, among other things, of raising capital through the issuance of its bonds and notes to assure a steady flow of production of new housing units for lower and moderate income persons and families. THDA’s mission is to create safe, sound, and affordable housing opportunities across the State by providing competitive interest rates on a variety of mortgage loan products approved by THDA’s Board of Directors (“Board”). THDA’s mortgage loans, resulting revenues, and any other assets under THDA’s bond resolutions are pledged assets for the payment of principal and interest on THDA bonds.

The Bond Finance Committee of the Board (“BFC”) is responsible for, among other things, overseeing THDA debt issuance. In this capacity, the BFC approves a Plan of Financing for each THDA bond issue and recommends the proposed debt issuance transaction to the Board for consideration. Upon the Board’s authorization, the sale of the debt proceeds under BFC oversight. The BFC is also authorized to approve the pricing of a debt issuance on behalf of THDA. The Secretary of the BFC, subject to this Debt Management Policy (“Policy”) and other policies of the Board and the BFC, is responsible for the execution of all matters relating to the issuance and servicing of the debt of THDA.

THDA debt is payable solely from the revenues or assets of THDA available therefore and pledged to the bondholders under the terms of THDA’s general bond resolutions. THDA debt is not a debt, liability, or obligation of the State or of any other political subdivision of the State. THDA debt is not secured by a pledge of the full faith and credit of the State or of any other political subdivision of the State.

II. Purpose

In December 2010, the Tennessee State Funding Board adopted a statement on debt management directing governmental entities in Tennessee to draft and adopt their own debt management policies. All public entities incurring or issuing debt, including THDA, are required to adopt a debt management policy by January 1, 2012. This Policy provides clear objectives for THDA’s debt transactions and transparency as to what is being considered, including the associated cost and risks. It also establishes requirements to assist in avoiding conflicts of interest.

III. Policy

THDA’s goal is to raise capital to maintain a steadily available supply of funds to finance its mortgage loan programs at cost levels that provide competitive, fixed interest rate mortgage loans that benefit low and moderate income families, while maintaining or improving THDA’s overall financial strength and flexibility, managing associated risks and complying with all applicable federal and state laws.

To achieve this goal, THDA will:

1. Maintain a conservative approach relative to debt financing and financial decisions.

Page 74: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

2

2. Maintain at least a five year Strategic Financial Plan, with at least annual updates, inclusive of the general financial objectives as set forth in this Policy, which may change in response to economic and other factors.

3. Maintain a debt management policy that provides for optimally-structured financing options, giving consideration to associated risks of debt structure components and current market conditions, while enabling broad distribution capabilities, both to institutional and retail investors.

4. Maintain compliance with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), as applicable to THDA’s bonds and mortgage loans financed with the proceeds of such bonds.

IV. Long-Term Financial Objectives

1. Maintain financial self-sufficiency.

2. Effectively balance the use of financial resources to fund mortgage loans and other initiatives that fulfill THDA’s statutory purpose and mission without compromising THDA’s financial strength.

3. Maintain or improve the current credit ratings for each THDA bond resolution.

4. Maintain financial flexibility.

5. Whenever possible, maximize yield spread between mortgage loan interest rates and the cost of debt to provide program and operational sustainability and resources for other investments in affordable housing.

6. Effectively balance financial creativity and risks.

7. Whenever possible, seek to reduce the extent of the State’s moral obligation pledge with respect to THDA debt.

V. Long-Range Financial Planning

THDA will maintain a five year Strategic Financial Plan (Plan) to be used as a liquidity analysis tool for decision-making purposes. At a minimum, this Plan will incorporate projections and assumptions for mortgage loan production, resources (including, but not limited to volume cap, tax-exempt debt, and taxable debt), costs and expenses of anticipated debt issuance, other housing program and operational liquidity needs, and liquidity and balance sheet analyses to assess the long-term financial position of THDA. The Plan will be developedment and maintained by THDA in cooperation with the Financial Advisor and the Office of State and Local Finance and will incorporate the financial objectives listed in this Policy. THDA anticipates at least annual updates to the Plan.

VI. Finance Team

THDA will maintain a team of finance professionals consisting of internal and external experts for the purpose of executing and maintaining debt financings and other financings as may be approved by the Board. The team will include THDA staff (including at least the THDA Executive Director, Chief Legal Counsel and Chief Financial Officer), underwriters (when appropriate), Bond Counsel, underwriter’s counsel (when appropriate), Financial Advisor, and Office of State and Local Finance staff.

All non-employee professionals engaged in the THDA debt issuance process shall clearly disclose all compensation and consideration received related to services provided in the THDA debt issuance process. This includes “soft” costs or compensations in lieu of direct payments.

The time period over which Bond Counsel, Financial Advisor, and potential underwriters serve shall end in staggered fiscal years in order to avoid disruption by either transition or selection processes. Contracts or agreements, if any, shall reflect such terms.

Bond Counsel: THDA shall enter into an engagement letter agreement with each lawyer or law firm representing THDA as bond counsel or tax counsel in a debt transaction. Bond Counsel shall be selected by the BFC pursuant to a Request for Proposal Process primarily weighted towards qualifications and price. Bond Counsel shall serve for a stated period of time. The Bond Counsel team shall include at least one lawyer who is licensed to practice in Tennessee and who is involved in all analysis and opinions regarding the Tennessee Constitution and Tennessee law arising in the course of Bond Counsel’s engagement.

Financial Advisor: THDA shall utilize the services of an independent financial advisor, who is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (“MSRB”) as a registered municipal advisor. The Financial Advisor shall enter into a written agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Treasury for debt management and transaction services for a stated period of time, however, the Financial Advisor shall have a fiduciary responsibility to THDA. The Financial Advisor shall be selected by the Board pursuant to a Request for Proposal Process primarily weighted towards qualifications and price. The Financial Advisor shall have demonstrated expertise in providing financial advice on housing related debt and financial planning on projects of state housing finance agencies, completely independent of the underwriting of municipal securities by banks and securities dealers.

Whether in a competitive or negotiated sale, a financial advisor shall not bid on, privately place or underwrite a THDA debt issue if it is or has been providing advisory services for the same THDA debt issue.

Underwriter: THDA shall utilize the services of a pool of potential underwriters for a stated period of time for negotiated sales. BFC shall select underwriters pursuant to a Request for Proposal/Request for Qualifications Process primarily weighted toward qualifications. Each underwriter in a negotiated sale shall clearly identify itself in writing e.g., in a response to a request for proposals or in promotional materials provided to THDA as an underwriter and not as a financial advisor from the earliest stages of its relationship with THDA with respect to that issue. Each underwriter must clarify its primary role as a purchaser of securities in an arm’s-length commercial transaction and that it has financial and other interests that differ from those of THDA. In the context of negotiated sales, THDA will evaluate structuring or other proposals only from members of its pool of underwriters. Underwriters may include senior managers (including a bookrunning senior manager), co-managers and selling group members, all as determined by the BFC.

Underwriter’s Counsel: While underwriter’s counsel is part of the financing team in connection with a negotiated bond issuance, such counsel is selected by the bookrunning senior manager with input from the BFC.

Trustee: The BFC shall periodically review and evaluate the performance of the Trustee and report its findings to the Board.

VII. Conflicts

Professionals involved in a debt transaction hired or compensated by THDA shall disclose to THDA existing client and business relationships between and among the professionals to a transaction (including but not limited to financial advisor, swap advisor, bond counsel, swap counsel, trustee, paying agent, underwriter, counterparty, and remarketing agent), as well as conduit issuers, sponsoring organizations and program administrators. This disclosure shall include that information reasonably sufficient to allow THDA to appreciate the significance of the relationships.

Professionals who become involved in the debt transaction as a result of a bid submitted in a widely and publicly advertised competitive sale conducted using an industry standard, electronic bidding platform are not subject to this disclosure. No disclosure is required that would violate any rule or regulation of professional conduct.

VIII. Statutory Debt Limit

THDA shall not issue bonds and notes in an aggregate principal amount that at any one time exceeds the statutory debt limit established in TCA Section 13-23-121. No less than annually, THDA staff shall assess THDA’s potential of reaching this limit within a 24 month period following the assessment. THDA staff shall communicate this assessment to the BFC and Board.

IX. Schedule of Financing

Pursuant to TCA Section 13-23-120(e), THDA shall submit a Schedule of Financing to the State Funding Board, prior to the beginning of each fiscal year of the State. The Schedule of Financing will be THDA’s best estimate of the financings required for the upcoming fiscal year and will contain the required information as set forth in the statute. The Schedule of Financing will contain assumptions as necessary to understand the proposed financings and resources.

X. Bond Issue Planning, Method of Sale, Structuring, and Execution

THDA’s general strategy is to determine the par amount of bonds to be issued based on financing three to four months of mortgage loan production and the availability of refunding opportunities. However, the size and timing of a particular bond issue may vary depending on mortgage loan production levels, other programmatic requirements or current market conditions.

Before a bond issue is authorized, THDA staff will monitor mortgage loan production, available resources, and market conditions and provide such information to Financial Advisor and the Office of State and Local Finance. When it is determined that authorization of a new bond issue is appropriate, whether for a new bond issue or an economic refunding, THDA staff in coordination with the Assistant Secretary of the BFC will prepare all authorizing documentation and circulate such documentation, along with necessary documentation from Bond Counsel and Financial Advisor, to the BFC and the Board. The Financial Advisor will prepare memoranda containing information about market conditions and various recommendations, including method of sale and possible bond issue size. All authorizing documentation and memoranda, including, without limitation, a Plan of Financing which shall specify the expected costs of issuance, capitalized interest, interest rates, redemption terms, and all other items required by TCA Section 13-23-120(e)(4), will be submitted to the Board and BFC. Following approval of a Plan of Financing by the BFC and authorization of a debt issuance by the Board, the BFC will be authorized to proceed with the sale of debt obligations on behalf of THDA.

Page 77: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

Since 2002, THDA debt issuance has occurred via negotiated sale. THDA, however, intends to consider the method of sale for each debt issuance on a case by case basis with consideration of a number of factors, including without limitation, the following factors:

• Complexity of the transaction, including whether the debt issuance incorporates structured bond components (such as planned amortization class bonds) and, generally, more complex redemption features.

• Including AMT or taxable components.

• Complexity of credit features, including multiple collateral pools and detailed loan portfolio histories, performance, and mortgage insurance characteristics.

• Importance of retail sales and institutional pre-marketing as part of the marketing plan.

• Volatility of bond market and other market conditions.

• Degree of investor concern about housing-backed transactions – especially secured by “whole loans.”

• Confidence in the rating agencies’ ability to evaluate structured credits.

While the above factors may favor negotiated sales, THDA reserves the right to consider the use of competitive sales at any time on a case by case basis. The determination of method of sale shall rest with the BFC with advice and recommendations from THDA staff, the Office of State and Local Finance staff and the Financial Advisor.

Before pricing, THDA staff and the Office of State and Local Finance staff will consider bond structure options prepared by the Financial Advisor and recommend the bond structure determined to be most beneficial to THDA based on bond yield, programmatic considerations and other financial considerations. The Office of State and Local Finance staff will informally circulate the recommended bond structure to BFC members individually and, with THDA staff and Financial Advisor, address issues or concerns raised. Thereafter, THDA staff, Office of State and Local Finance staff, Bond Counsel and Financial Advisor will carry out the pricing process, either competitive or negotiated, as determined by the BFC.

The Financial Advisor will clearly communicate the benefits and risks of each bond type used in the bond structure options. The THDA staff and the Office of State and Local Finance staff will consult with Financial Advisor, and the bookrunning senior manager for negotiated sales, to determine a pricing strategy designed to yield the best results given the then current market conditions.

For negotiated sales, the pricing will generally be handled by conference calls involving THDA staff, Office of State and Local Finance staff, Financial Advisor, as well as Bond Counsel and underwriters, as appropriate. THDA staff and the Office of State and Local Finance staff, with the advice of Financial Advisor, will have primary responsibility for making pricing determinations to be presented to the BFC for approval. The Financial Advisor will provide THDA staff and the Office of State and Local Finance staff with summary information regarding all pertinent aspects of a financing and will make specific recommendations regarding the acceptance of a pricing. This information, along with all other pertinent pricing documents, will be submitted to the BFC, which shall meet to consider approval of the debt sale. If the pricing is approved by the BFC, the results will be communicated to the Board. A formal post-sale analysis will be prepared by the Financial Advisor and reviewed with the BFC. The post-sale analysis shall include sufficient information to permit the BFC to judge the performance of the underwriters.

XI. Investment of Proceeds

The proceeds of each THDA bond issue shall be invested as provided in each series resolution applicable to a particular debt issuance, the relevant general resolution under which the debt issuance occurred, applicable state law, and the Tennessee Housing Development Agency Investment Policy dated September 14, 1993, as amended.

XI.XII. Debt Issuance Review

The Financial Advisor will prepare a report in cooperation with THDA staff and the Office of State and Local Finance staff that shows the results of THDA’s debt issuance and the performance of underwriters to be reviewed by the BFC on no less than an annual basis.

XII.XIII. Initial and On-going Federal Compliance

THDA staff will work with Bond Counsel and Financial Advisor to ensure initial bond offerings comply with all applicable federal laws and program requirements. The THDA Executive Director, working with this group will be responsible for continued compliance with such federal laws and program requirements including, among other things, post issuance compliance, arbitrage rules, 10 Year and 32 Year rules, maintenance of records, and continuing disclosure requirements.

Secondary Market Disclosure: THDA is currently disseminating and presently intends to continue to disseminate information relating to its various single-family mortgage revenue bonds in accordance with the quarterly secondary market disclosure project sponsored by the National Council of State Housing Agencies. THDA has filed quarterly reports, beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 1994, with each then nationally recognized municipal securities information repository and currently with the MSRB through its Electronic Municipal Market Access (“EMMA”) system. THDA also expects that its official statements, which contain audited financial information about THDA, with respect to debt issued under the General Residential Finance Program Bond Resolution (“2013 General Resolution”), the General Homeownership Program Bond Resolution (“1985 General Resolution”), and the General Housing Finance Resolution (“2009 General Resolution”) will be filed with the MSRB through its EMMA system if and when debt is so issued. It is the present intent of THDA to continue making voluntary secondary market disclosure as described above.

Continuing Disclosure Undertaking: THDA shall include in each series resolution applicable to a particular debt issuance a continuing disclosure undertaking designed to meet the requirements of SEC Rule 15c2-12 (“Rule”), if and to the extent required by the Rule. Thereafter, THDA shall meet its continuing disclosure undertaking and comply with the Rule. Bond Counsel shall provide necessary guidance regarding requirements to be met and compliance with the Rule.

XIII.XIV. Short-Term Financings

Depending on market conditions, the availability of liquidity, or Board-approved housing programs, THDA may borrow funds on a short-term basis from a bank or other financial institution or entity. Before any such undertaking, THDA staff and the Office of State and Local Finance staff, together with Financial Advisor and Bond Counsel, as needed, will consult to determine the feasibility of such short-term borrowings and present to the BFC and Board the benefits, risks, and impact of such short-term borrowings. In connection with short term financings, the Board may establish guidelines pursuant to which the Executive Director may cause THDA to enter into any such short-term borrowing.

Any such borrowing may be secured by collateral consisting of mortgage loans or other assets of THDA to be specifically pledged thereto, but may not be secured by the general obligation of THDA or be evidenced by a bond or note, unless approved by resolution of the Board. The BFC and Board

Page 79: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

7

shall approve the principal amount of such borrowings that may be outstanding at any one time. Tennessee law as set forth in TCA Section 13-23-121 will determine if any short-term borrowings will count against THDA’s statutory debt limit.

XIV.XV. Types of Bonds

Pursuant to TCA Section 13-23-115(15), THDA is authorized to borrow money and to enter into debt for its authorized purposes. THDA debt may include bonds or notes which may be tax-exempt or taxable and secured by the general obligation of THDA, by specific revenues of THDA, by any combination thereof, or as may otherwise be provided in TCA Section 13-23-120(b). Under TCA Section 13-23-120(b), THDA may issue such types of bonds or notes as it may determine, including without limitation, the following:

1. Serial Bonds mature in such manner that principal amounts become due and payable on specified dates, usually every 6 or 12 months. Serial Bonds are Bonds of an issue in which some Bonds mature in successive years without interruption. Generally, Serial Bonds comprise the first 8 to 12 years of a bond issue and are sold to private individuals (retail).

2. Term Bonds come due in a single maturity at intervals of greater than one year after the last Serial Bond’s maturity and usually comprise a large part of each particular issue. The Issuer usually agrees to make periodic payments into a sinking fund for mandatory annual or semiannual redemption of a portion of the Term Bonds before maturity or for payment at maturity. A housing Bond issue is generally structured with an intermediate Term Bond maturity around year 20 and a final Term Bond maturity in year 32 of the issue; other Term Bond maturities are often added which are designed at the request of major purchasers.

3. Floating (Variable) Rate Demand (“Lower Floater”) Bonds are Bonds which bear interest at a floating rate, usually set every week by an investment banker (as remarketing agent) at the fair market rate for seven–day–maturity debt. Such Bonds can normally be tendered by the owner (strictly at its option) to a tender agent (usually the trustee) at par after giving seven days’ notice; the Bonds are then remarketed to new investors by the investment banker, as remarketing agent. A bank typically agrees to buy tendered Bonds if they cannot be otherwise sold to new investors. These Floating Rate Demand Bonds are usually sold to money market funds.

4. Current Interest Bonds (“CIBs”) are the most common type of housing Bonds. Interest is paid every six months until the Bond matures or is retired early from optional or mandatory redemption.

5. Zero Coupon Bonds

a. Capital Appreciation Bonds (“CABs”). Payment of the semiannual interest is deferred until maturity or redemption with Capital Appreciation Bonds. The payment made at maturity or on the redemption date consists of principal and compounded semiannual interest. CABs are sold to investors at a large discount and accrete to par value at maturity.

b. CAB Converters. Interest on CAB Converters is deferred and semiannually until the Conversion Date—the date when the Bond converts to a current interest paying Bond and thereafter interest is earned and paid semiannually on the accreted value.

c. CABs and CAB Converters both reduce interest cost by enabling the issue to be structured with lower interest rate Serial Bonds in the early years. Zero Coupon Bonds are sometimes priced at higher yields than Current Interest Bonds of the same maturity and generally require higher fees to bond salesmen to be effectively marketed.

6. Original Issue Premium Bonds are fixed rate Bonds (sometimes PAC Bonds) sold at a price greater than 100% of their par value (the “premium”). The interest rates on Premium Bonds are somewhat higher than the rates on comparable Bonds sold at 100% of their par value, but when the premium is taken into account, the effective interest cost to the Issuer is less than the interest cost on a traditional Bond.

7. Original Issue Discount (“OID”) Bonds are Term Bonds sold at a price less than 100% of their initial par value. They are sold at a slightly lower yield and are used as a marketing device to institutional investors. OIDs sometimes require an Issuer contribution to the cash flows. They are rarely used for single–family Bonds due to the risk of early redemption at par from unexpended proceeds and prepayments.

8. Super Sinker Bonds are term Bonds which are redeemed before any other maturity from mortgage prepayments and, occasionally, excess revenues. While a super sinker will have a stated maturity of 10 to 20 years, the average life of a super sinker at 100% of the FHA mortgage prepayment experience will be approximately three to five years. A super sinker provides other Bonds in the issue with limited call protection because the super sinker is redeemed first. Super sinkers are priced at a lower yield than a regular Bond of the same stated maturity and are priced off their average life as opposed to their stated maturity. Super sinkers also require special rating agency cash flow stress tests. If the Bond issue receives prepayments at a rate less than 100% of the FHA experience, the actual average life of the Super Sinker Bonds will be extended. This average life risk is borne by the buyers of the Super Sinkers.

9. Planned–Amortization Class Bonds (“PACs”), typically used only in a single family issue, are a type of Super Sinker Bonds in that they are the first Bonds within the Bond issue to be called from mortgage prepayments, but unlike Super Sinkers there is a limit on how quickly they can be redeemed. PACs may also have a stated maturity of 10 to 30 years, but based on a specified Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) mortgage prepayment speed, their average life is approximately three to five years. PACs are priced at a lower yield than a regular Bond of the same stated maturity and are priced off their average life as opposed to their stated maturity. If the average life is determined at a percentage of the SIFMA prepayment rates, prepayments above that amount are allocated to redeem Bonds other than the PAC Bonds. If the bond issue receives prepayments at a rate less than the predetermined SIFMA rate, the actual average life of the PAC Bonds will be extended. However, if the prepayments are higher than the predetermined of the SIFMA rate, the average life is not reduced. Thus, the average life of the PAC is less volatile than for Super Sinker Bonds, and, as a result, investors are willing to accept a slightly lower yield.

10. Convertible Option Bonds (“COBs”) are marketed for an initial short–term period (usually six to 12 months) and may, at the Issuer’s option, be reoffered or converted into additional short–term remarketings or converted and remarketed or refunded as long–term, fixed rate Serial and Term Bonds. The interest on COBs converts from a short–term interest rate to a long–term interest rate on the conversion date. The single–family mortgage rates are also determined upon a conversion date. Conversion dates occur upon predetermined dates or upon the occurrence of certain events. Until the conversion date, Bond proceeds are invested in securities or a guaranteed investment contract and are not available for the purchase of loans until the COB is remarketed or refunded. COBs are used by the Issuer to preserve single–family bonding authority from loss due to various legal reasons. However, federal tax law changes in 1997 eliminated many of the tax advantages of COBs and have resulted in the increased use of short–term (one– to two–year) notes which are then simply refunded by long–term bonds instead of being “converted” to long–term Bonds.

11. Call Protected Bonds (Lockout Bonds), typically used only in a single family issue, are protected from early redemption for a specified period, usually five or 10 years. The Issuer agrees to not call these Bonds from prepayments or excess revenues for a specified number of years. The investor will generally accept a lower yield for these Call Protected Bonds. This structure reduces the

Page 81: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

9

prepayment call risk borne by the investor (Bonds may otherwise be called earlier than their stated maturity because of mortgage prepayments), and thus results in lower Bond rates.

12. Other Bonds, other bonds may be included in the structure of any bond issue at the discretion of BFC and the Board.

XV.XVI. Refundings

THDA staff, together with Office of State & Local Finance staff, Financial Advisor and Bond Counsel, shall regularly analyze outstanding bond issues for refunding opportunities and shall evaluate refunding proposals submitted by underwriters. The Financial Advisor shall analyze outstanding bond issues at least semiannually and report to THDA staff and Office of State & Local Finance staff if a potential refunding issue appears viable. The applicable provisions of this Policy shall apply to a refunding bond issue in a similar manner as set forth herein for a bond issue designed to produce proceeds for THDA mortgage loan programs.

The following issues shall be considered in connection with evaluating refunding opportunities:

Whether a refunding results in an aggregate present value savings deemed sufficient by the BFC; or

Whether a refunding is necessary due to a change in tax status of the bonds; or

Whether a refunding is necessary to further THDA program objectives; or

Whether a refunding is necessary to preserve volume cap; or

Whether a refunding results in a reduction of the State’s moral obligation pledge with respect to THDA debt obligations.

Refunding bonds will be structured to meet then applicable Code requirements and to provide maximum benefit within the general resolution under which the refunding bonds are to be issued.

XVI.XVII. Redemptions

To the extent THDA has discretion to redeem bonds and select the maturities and issues to be redeemed, THDA will first redeem those bonds bearing the highest interest rate; however, due to universal cap considerations, THDA will call term bonds on a pro-rata basis within bond issues or redeem the highest coupon serial bonds when the result will be to reduce debt service requirements. When making a redemption decision, THDA will consider, among other applicable things, (i) restrictions or limitations imposed by the Code including, but not limited to, 10-year rule requirements and universal cap considerations; (ii) limitations or restrictions imposed by THDA resolutions including, but not limited to, redemption provisions; (iii) economic considerations; (iv) cash flow requirements; and (v) the amount of prepayments and other monies available to THDA for optional redemption of Bonds.

XVII.XVIII. Transparency

THDA shall comply with state and federal legal requirements for notice and for public meetings related to debt issuance. In the interest of transparency, all costs (including interest, issuance, continuing, and one-time) shall be disclosed to the BFC and Board in a timely manner. In connection with each THDA bond issue, THDA staff shall complete and file with the Office of State and Local Finance the most current version of the required Report on Debt Obligation (State Form CT-0253) (“Report”) and shall present such Report to the BFC and the Board at public meetings within the required time periods to meet this disclosure obligation.

Page 82: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

XVIII.XIX. Interest Rate and Forward Purchase Agreements

Pursuant to TCA Section 13-23-120(a)(2) and (3), THDA is authorized to enter into interest rate and forward purchase agreements. At such time as the BFC and Board determine it is in the best interest of THDA to enter into such agreements, appropriate amendments to this Policy will be considered and submitted to the BFC and Board for consideration and approval.

XIX.XX. Conduit Debt

For purposes of this section, a “conduit bond issue” is a bond issue in which the obligation of THDA as the issuer to pay principal of and interest on the bonds is limited to the payments it receives from a private third-party under a loan relating to revenues derived from the facilities financed or other assets of the third-party borrower. At such time as the BFC and Board determine it is in the best interest of THDA to enter into such financing agreements, appropriate amendments to this Policy will be considered and submitted to the BFC and Board for consideration and approval.

XX.XXI. Variable Rate Debt

At such time as the BFC and Board determine it is in the best interest of THDA to enter into variable rate debt, appropriate amendments to this Policy will be considered and submitted to the BFC and Board for consideration and approval.

XXI.XXII. Taxable Debt

At such time as the BFC and Board determine it is in the best interest of THDA to enter into taxable debt, appropriate amendments to this Policy will be considered and submitted to the BFC and Board for consideration and approval.

XXII.XXIII. State Moral Obligation Pledge

All THDA debt currently outstanding under the 1985 General Resolution is secured by, among other things, the moral obligation pledge of the State of Tennessee. It is THDA’s present intent to issue future debt obligations under the 2009 General Resolution or the 2013 General Resolution, neither of which carry the State’s moral obligation pledge. In the event THDA creates additional resolutions under which debt obligations are sold, such resolutions are expected to not carry the State’s moral obligation pledge. It is also THDA’s present intent to evaluate, in connection with each debt issuance, whether debt obligations outstanding under the 1985 General Resolution are eligible for refunding to, among other things, remove additional debt obligations from the State’s moral obligation pledge.

XXIII.XXIV. Adoption and Amendment

This Policy was considered by the BFC at its meeting on November 28, 2011, and approved by the Board at its meeting on November 29, 2011. This aAmendments to the Policy werewas considered by the BFC at its meeting on July 28, 2014, and on May 23. 2016, and approved by the Board at its meeting on July 29, 2014, and on May 24, 2016. The Policy shall be reviewed at least annually by the BFC at the time of consideration of the Schedule of Financing. Any amendments shall be considered and approved in the same process as the initial adoption of this Policy.

The date of redemption pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be determined by the Trustee upon the direction of THDA subject to the provisions of and in accordance with the General Resolution (and when so determined such date will be deemed and is hereby set forth as the redemption date). The Issue 2016-1 Bonds to be so redeemed shall be redeemed at a Redemption Price of 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus interest accrued to the redemption date, if applicable; provided, however, that the Redemption Price for the PAC Bonds in the event of a redemption described in clause (i) of the paragraph above shall be the issue price thereof (par plus premium), plus accrued interest to the redemption date.

the option of THDA, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 hereof.

Notwithstanding any extension of the redemption date described above, in order to satisfy requirements of the Code, the Issue 2016-1 Bonds are subject to mandatory redemption on November 1, 2019, to the extent any amounts remain on deposit in the Issue 2016-1 Subaccount of the Loan Fund on October 1, 2019.

While any PAC Bonds remain Outstanding, Excess 2016-1 Principal Payments shall be used as follows:

FIRST, if principal prepayments on the Program Loans allocable to the Issue 2016-1 Bonds are equal to or less than the 400% PSA Prepayment Amount, as determined by THDA, then available Excess 2016-1 Principal Payments shall first be applied to redeem the PAC Bonds on a pro rata basis up to an amount correlating to the Issue 2016-1A PAC Bonds Planned Amortization Amount and the Issue 2016-1B PAC Bonds Planned Amortization Amount, as applicable, and, subject to Section 2.11(c) below, the remainder may be applied by THDA for any purpose permissible under the Resolution, including the redemption of any Bonds under the Resolution, other than the PAC Bonds.

SECOND, if principal prepayments on the Program Loans allocable to the Issue 2016-1 Bonds are in excess of the 400% PSA Prepayment Amount, as determined by THDA, then available Excess 2016-1 Principal Payments shall first be applied to redeem PAC Bonds on a pro rata basis up to an amount correlating to the Issue 2016-1A PAC Bonds Planned Amortization Amount and the Issue 2016-1B PAC Bonds Planned Amortization Amount, as applicable, (as set forth in “FIRST” above) and, subject to Section 2.11(c) below, the remainder may be applied by THDA for any purpose permissible under the Resolution, including the redemption of any Bonds issued under the Resolution, including the PAC Bonds (any such remainder used to redeem PAC

The Redemption Price of Issue 2016-1 Bonds so redeemed shall be 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus interest accrued to the redemption date, if applicable.

(ii) THDA shall advise the Trustee of the appropriate Redemption Date for any redemption pursuant to this Section 2.11(c).

TENNESSEE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT AGENCY (hereinafter sometimes called “THDA”), a body politic and corporate and a political subdivision of the State of Tennessee (herein called the “State”), created and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State, acknowledges itself indebted, and for value received hereby promises to pay to the Registered Owner (shown above), or registered assigns, the principal sum (shown above), on the maturity date specified above, and to pay interest on said principal sum to the Registered Owner of this Bond from the dated date hereof until THDA’s obligation with respect to the payment of said principal sum shall be discharged, at the rate per annum specified above payable on each January 1 and July 1 commencing January 1, 2017. The principal of and interest on this Bond are payable at the designated corporate trust office of U.S. Bank National Association, Nashville, Tennessee in any coin or currency of the United States of America, which, on the respective dates of payment thereof shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

This Bond is one of the bonds of THDA designated “Residential Finance Program Bonds” (herein called the “Bonds”) authorized to be issued in various series under and pursuant to the Tennessee Housing Development Agency Act, Sections 13-23-101 et seq., of the Tennessee Code Annotated, as amended (herein called the “Act”), a resolution of THDA adopted January 29, 2013, as amended and supplemented by the Bond Finance Committee on April 18, 2013, and entitled “Residential Housing Finance Resolution” (herein called the “General Resolution”) and a supplemental resolution authorizing each issue. As provided in the General Resolution, the Bonds may be issued from time to time in one or more series of various principal

Page 114: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

amounts, may bear interest at different rates and subject to the provisions thereof, may otherwise vary. All Bonds issued and to be issued under the General Resolution are and will be equally secured by the pledges and covenants made therein, except as otherwise expressly provided or permitted in the General Resolution.

This bond is one of a series of bonds additionally designated “Issue 2016-1[A][B]” (herein called the “Bonds”) issued in the aggregate principal amount of $__________ under the General Resolution, a resolution of THDA adopted on January 26, 2016, as amended and supplemented by the Bond Finance Committee on April 13, 2016 (collectively with the General Resolution, the “Resolutions”). Copies of the Resolutions are on file at the office of THDA in Nashville, Tennessee and at the principal corporate trust office of U.S. Bank National Association, Nashville, Tennessee, as trustee under the General Resolution (said trustee under the General Resolution being called herein the “Trustee”) and reference to the Resolutions and any and all supplements thereto and modifications and amendments thereof and to the Act is made for a description of the pledges and covenants securing the Bonds, the nature, extent and manner of enforcement of such pledges, the rights and remedies of the bearers or registered owners of the Bonds with respect thereto and the terms and conditions upon which the Bonds have been issued and may be issued thereunder.

To the extent and in the manner permitted by the terms of the Resolutions, the provisions of the Resolutions or any resolution amendatory thereof or supplemental thereto may be modified or amended by THDA with the written consent of the holders of at least two-thirds in principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, and, in case less than all of the several series of Bonds would be affected thereby, with such consent of the holders of at least two-thirds in principal amount of the Bonds of each series so affected then outstanding. If such modification or amendment will by its terms not take effect so long as any Bonds of any specified like series and maturity remain outstanding, however, the consent of the holders of such Bonds shall not be required. In addition, certain other modifications or amendments to the Resolutions can be made which are not contrary to or inconsistent with the Resolutions without the consent of the Bondholders.

The holder of this Bond shall have no right to enforce the provisions of the Resolutions, to institute actions to enforce the provisions of the Resolutions or to institute, appear in or defend any suit or other proceeding with respect thereto, except as provided in the General Resolution. In certain events, on the conditions, in the manner and with the effect set forth in the General Resolution, the principal of all the Bonds issued thereunder and then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon, may become or may be declared due and payable before the maturity thereof.

This Bond is transferable, as provided in the Resolutions, only upon the books of THDA kept for that purpose at the office of the Trustee by the registered owner hereof in person or by such owner’s attorney duly authorized in writing, upon surrender of this Bond together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the registered owner or such owner’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new registered Bond or Bonds in the same aggregate principal amount and of the same subseries and maturity shall be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor as provided in the General Resolution and upon the payment of the charges, if any, therein prescribed. THDA and the Trustee may treat and consider the

person in whose name this Bond is registered as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal or redemption price, if any, hereof and interest due hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever.

This Bond is a special limited obligation of THDA payable solely from the revenues and assets pledged therefor pursuant to the General Resolution.

The Bonds are issued as fully registered bonds in the denomination of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof.

The Bonds are subject to optional, mandatory and sinking fund redemption as described in the Resolutions.

This Bond does not constitute a debt, liability or other obligation of the State or any political subdivision thereof other than THDA and neither the State nor any political subdivision thereof shall be obligated to pay the principal of the Bonds or the interest thereon. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the State or of any political subdivision thereof is pledged to the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds.

This Bond shall not be valid or become obligatory for any other purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under the Resolutions until the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee.

The Act provides that neither the members of THDA nor any person executing this Bond shall be liable personally hereon or shall be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of its execution.

IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED, RECITED AND DECLARED that all acts, conditions and things required by the Constitution or statutes of the State and the Resolutions to exist, to have happened or to have been performed precedent to or in the issuance of this Bond, exist, have happened and have been performed in due time, form and manner as required by law and that the issuance of the Bonds, together with all other indebtedness, of THDA, is within every debt and other limit prescribed by law.

Tennessee Housing Development AgencyAttn: Ralph PerreyAndrew Jackson Building502 Deaderick Street, Third FloorNashville, Tennessee 37243

RE: 2016 Review Notice- Weston Way TN16-047

Dear Mr. Perrey:

This letter is in response to the Tennessee Housing Development Agency ("THDA") LowIncome Housing Tax Credit 2016 Review Notice ("Review Notice") for the above referencedapplication. A copy of the referenced Review Notice is attached hereto. For the reasons set

forth below, THDA's determinations referenced in the Review Notice are arbitrary andcapricious and in violation of the THDA 2016 Qualified Allocation Plan ("QAP"). More to thepoint, the attempt to determine financial feasibility of this or any project is not permitted untilafter such project has received a Preliminary Award Letter ("PAL"). No such PAL has beenremitted to the referenced project in accordance with QAP Part IX.A.

The Review Notice states that the application met all initial application criteria per the"NONE" listed after Eligibility Requirements, Scoring Review, and Other Requirements.Furthermore, the self-score from the application matches the score given by THDA, which bothreflect a score of 100. The Review Notice then includes the following:

"Pursuant to $42(mX2) of the Internal Revenue Code, Part I of the THDA Low-Income Housing Tax Credit 2016 QAP (the "2016 QAP"), Part II-3 of the 2016 QAP,and Part IV-E of the 2016 QAP, THDA has determined that the proposed square footagef'or the units in the development reflected in this Initial Application requires an allocationof Low-lncome Housing Tax Credit that is in excess of what is necessary for the financialfeasibility of the development and its viability as a qualified low-income housingdevelopment throughout the credit period."

The Review Notice therefore is based on the determination that the project was notfinancially feasible and not viable as a qualified low-income housing development throughoutthe credit period. However, these grounds violate the QAP and even the Review Notice itself,which provides as follows:

"Pursuant to the requirements of Section a2@)(2) of the Internal Revenue Codeof 1986, as amended, and the requirements of the 2016 QAP, THDA will conduct a

financial feasibility and reasonability review of the development in the event lhøt thedevelopment ìs designated to receíve ø preliminary øwørd lelter."

Page 129: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

In other words, THDA conducts financial feasibility and reasonability review ONLYAFTER the project has been determined to be eligible and ranked high enough to receive the

PAL. THDA has not notified the applicant of a PAL in accordance with QAP Part IX.A.Reservation of Tax Credits.

Nowhere in the QAP does it provide fbr a hnancial feasibility analysis as part ofeligibility or scoring. See Part VII-A Eligibility or Part VII-B Scoring. Accordingly, it is

arbilrary and capricious for THDA to determine the project is not feasible prior to issuing thePAL and working with the applicant to resolve concerns about the proposed project. See QAPPart IX.A.

We are respectfully requesting that the Tax Credit Committee confirm that there are no

outstanding issues with eligibility and scoring of the referenced application. Further, we are

respectfully requesting the Tax Credit Committee confirm the financial feasibility and

reasonability review will occur AFTER the referenced application "is designated to receive a

preliminary award letter," consistent with the very Review Notice itself. Any other findingwould violate the 2016 QAP Part VII-A Eligibility or Part VII-B Scoring, and therefore be

arbitrary and capricious.

We believe this project is financially feasible and we have not requested more creditsthan necessary to build the units. The application complies with the QAP and conforms to marketdemands. We would welcome the opportunity to meet with staff to confirm the foregoing uponreceipt of a PAL (and possibly work with staff toward an allocation of fewer credits thanrequested in the application, if appropriate), which is the typical process for underwritingapplications.

V/e would appreciate the opportunity to discuss in more detail. If you should have anyquestions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Mike Hedges

Dear Mr. Perrey:

This letter is in response to the Tennessee Housing Development Agency ("THDA") LowIncome Housing Tax Credit 2016 Review Notice ("Review Notice") for the above referenced

application. A copy of the referenced Review Notice is attached hereto. For the reasons set

forth below, THDA's determinations referenced in the Review Notice are arbitrary and

capricious and in violation of the THDA 2016 Qualified Allocation Plan ("QAP"). More to the

point, the attempt to determine financial feasibility of this or any project is not permitted untilafter such project has received a Preliminary Award Letter ("PAL"). No such PAL has been

remitted to the referenced project in accordance with QAP Part IX.A.

The Review Notice states that the application met all initial application criteria per the

"NONE" listed after Eligibility Requirements, Scoring Review, and Other Requirements.

Furthermore, the self-score from the application matches the score given by THDA, which both

reflect a score of 100. The Review Notice then includes the following:

"Pursuant to $42(m)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, Part I of the THDA Low-Income Housing Tax Credit 2016 QAP (the"2076 QAP"), Part II-3 of the 2016 QAP,and Part IV-E of the 2016 QAP, THDA has determined that the proposed square footage

for the units in the development reflected in this Initial Application requires an allocationof Low-Income Housing Tax Credit that is in excess of what is necessary for the financialfeasibility of the development and its viability as a qualified low-income housing

development throughout the credit period."

The Review Notice therefore is based on the determination that the project was not

financially feasible and not viable as a qualified low-income housing development throughoutthe credit period. However, these grounds violate the QAP and even the Review Notice itself,which provides as follows:

"Pursuant to the requirements of Section 42(m)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code

In other words, THDA conducts f,rnancial feasibility and reasonability review ONLYAFTER the project has been determined to be eligible and ranked high enough to receive the

arbitrary and capricious for THDA to determine the project is not feasible prior to issuing the

PAL and working with the applicant to resolve concerns about the proposed project. See QAPPart IX.A.

respectfully requesting the Tax Credit Committee confirm the financial feasibility and

reasonability review will occur AFTER the referenced application "is designated to receive a

preliminary award letter," consistent with the very Review Notice itself. Any other findingwould violate the 2016 QAP Part VII-A Eligibility or Part VII-B Scoring, and therefore be

arbitrary and capricious.

We believe this project is financially feasible and we have not requested more creditsthan necessary to build the units. The application complies with the QAP and conforms to marketdemands. We would welcome the opportunity to meet with staff to confirm the foregoing uponreceipt of a PAL (and possibly work with staff toward an allocation of fewer credits thanrequested in the application, if appropriate), which is the typical process for underwritingapplications.

V/e would appreciate the opportunity to discuss in more detail. If you should have anyquestions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

Haves

Other Requirements:

An addendum was submitted by the market study analyst defending the PMA (19.8 miles) distanceto the location of subject project and that only one LIHTC properly was located in Fairview.There are three LIHTC developments in Fairview plus one that was awarded in 2015. The PMAarea must be redefined to get a better understanding of the need and demand in Fairviewspecifically and can this redefined area handle all these units? The addendum submitted inresponse to the "Cure" notice is insufficient as it does not give pertinent data requested forthe 10 mile radius.

The following statement was inadvertently omitted from the Cure notice and because the subjectdevelopment does fall within the same group as the other proposed developments this will apply.

RE: 2016 Review Notice- Peery View TN16-066

Dear Mr. Perrey:

This letter is in response to the Tennessee Housing Development Agency ("THDA") LowIncome Housing Tax Credit 2016 Review Notice ("Review Notice") for the above referenced

application. A copy of the referenced Review Notice is attached hereto. For the reasons set

forth below, THDA's determinations referenced in the Review Notice are arbitrary and

capricious and in violation of the THDA 2016 Qualified Allocation Plan ("QAP"). More to thepoint, the attempt to determine fìnancial feasibility of this or any project is not permitted untilafter such project has received a Preliminary Award Letter ("PAL"). No such PAL has been

remitted to the referenced project in accordance with QAP Part IX.A.

The Review Notice states that the application met all initial application criteria per the

"NONE" listed after Eligibility Requirements, Scoring Review, and Other Requirements.Furthermore, the self-score from the application matches the score given by THDA, which both

reflect a score of 100. The Review Notice then includes the following:

"Pursuant to $42(m)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, Part I of the THDA Low-Income Housing Tax Credit 2016 QAP (the "2016 QAP"), Part II-3 of the 2016 QAP,and Part IV-E of the 2016 QAP, THDA has determined that the proposed square footage

for the units in the development reflected in this Initial Application requires an allocationof Low-Income Housing Tax Credit that is in excess of what is necessary for the financialfeasibility of the development and its viability as a qualified low-income housingdevelopment throughout the credit period."

The Review Notice therefore is based on the determination that the project was notfinancially feasible and not viable as a qualif,red low-income housing development throughoutthe credit period. However, these grounds violate the QAP and even the Review Notice itself,which provides as follows:

"Pursuant to the requirements of Section a2@)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code

of 1986, as amended, and the requirements of the 2016 QAP, THDA will conduct a

financial feasibility and reasonability review of the development in lhe event that thedevelopment ís desígnated to receive a prelimìnøry award lelter."

In other words, THDA conducts financial feasibility and reasonability review ONLYAFTER the project has been determined to be eligible and ranked high enough to receive thePAL. THDA has not notified the applicant of a PAL in accordance with QAP Part IX.A.Reservation of Tax Credits.

Nowhere in the QAP does it provide for a frnancial feasibility analysis as part ofeligibility or scoring. See Part VII-A Eligibility or Part VII-B Scoring. Accordingly, it isarbitrary and capricious for THDA to determine the project is not feasible prior to issuing thePAL and working with the applicant to resolve concerns about the proposed project. See QAPPart IX.A.

We are respectfully requesting that the Tax Credit Committee confirm that there are no

outstanding issues with eligibility and scoring of the referenced application, Further, we are

respectfully requesting the Tax Credit Committee confirm the financial feasibility and

reasonability review will occur AFTER the referenced application "is designated to receive a

preliminary award letter," consistent with the very Review Notice itself. Any other findingwould violate the 2016 QAP Part VII-A Eligibility or Part VII-B Scoring, and therefore be

arbitrary and capricious.

We believe this project is financially feasible and we have not requested more credits

than necessary to build the units. The application complies with the QAP and conforms to market

demands. We would welcome the opportunity to meet with staff to conf,trm the foregoing upon

receipt of a PAL (and possibly work with staff toward an allocation of fewer credits than

requested in the application, if appropriate), which is the typical process for underwritingapplications.

Market demand has been fully established in previous responses, and the Review Noticerequests items which are not only not contained by the QAP, but they are violative of industrystandard market study methodologies. Please accept previous responses as incorporated byreference herein as if fully set forth herein. The market study and subsequent responses fullysatisf, all requirements of the QAP with regard to market analysis requirements, and the "tenmile radius" request made in the Review Notice is not only contained nowhere in the QAP, it isin direct conflict with established market study industry standards, as noted in previous

responses.

We would appreciate the opportunity to discuss in more detail. If you should have anyquestions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Dear Mr. Perrey:

This letter is in response to the Tennessee Housing Development Agency ("THDA") LowIncome Housing Tax Credit 2016 Review Notice ("Review Notice") for the above referenced

application. A copy of the referenced Review Notice is attached hereto. For the reasons set

forth below, THDA's determinations referenced in the Review Notice are arbitrary and

capricious and in violation of the THDA 2016 Qualified Allocation Plan ("QAP"). More to the

point, the attempt to determine financial feasibility of this or any project is not permitted untilãfter such project has received a Preliminary Award Letter ("PAL"). No such PAL has been

remitted to the referenced project in accordance with QAP Part IX'A'

The Review Notice states that the application met all initial application criteria per the

"NONE" listed after Eligibility Requirements, Scoring Review, and Other Requirements.

Furthermore, the self-score from the application matches the score given by THDA, which both

reflect a score of 100. The Review Notice then includes the following:

for the units in the development reflected in this Initial Application requires an allocation

of Low-Income Housing Tax Credit that is in excess of what is necessary for the financial

feasibility of the development and its viability as a qualifTed low-income housing

The Review Notice therefore is based on the determination that the project was not

financially feasible and not viable as a qualified low-income housing development throughout

the credit period. However, these grounds violate the QAP and even the Review Notice itself,

which provides as follows:

"Pursuant to the requirements of Section a2@)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code

VIA E,LECTRONIC MAIL

Tennessee Housing Development AgencyAttn: Ralph PerreyAndrew Jackson Building502 Deaderick Street, Third FloorNashville, Tennessee 37243

RE: 2016 Review Notice- Tallent Place TN16-043

Dear Mr. Perrey:

This letter is in response to the Tennessee Housing Development Agency ("THDA") LowIncome Housing Tax Credit 2016 Review Notice ("Review Notice") for the above referenced

application. A copy of the referenced Review Notice is attached hereto, For the reasons set

forth below, THDA's determinations referenced in the Review Notice are arbitrary and

capricious and in violation of the THDA 2016 Qualified Allocation Plan ("QAP"). More to the

point, the attempt to determine fìnancial feasibility of this or any project is not permitted untilàfter such project has received a Preliminary Award Letter ("PAL"). No such PAL has been

remitted to the referenced project in accordance with QAP Part IX'A'

The Review Notice states that the application met all initial application criteria per the

"NONE" listed after Eligibility Requirements, Scoring Review, and Other Requirements. The

Review Notice then includes the following:

"Pursuant to $42(m)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, Part I of the THDA Low-Income Housing Tax Credit 2016 QAP (the "2016 QAP"), Part II-3 of the 2016 QAP,and Part IV-E of the 2016 QAP, THDA has determined that the proposed square footage

for the units in the development reflected in this Initial Application requires an allocation

of Low-lncome Housing Tax Credit that is in excess of what is necessary for the financial

feasibility of the development and its viability as a qualified low-income housing

development throughout the credit period."

The Review Notice therefore is based on the determination that the project was not

financially feasible and not viable as a qualified low-income housing development throughout

the credit period. However, these grounds violate the QAP and even the Review Notice itself,

which provides as follows:

"Pursuant to the requirements of Section 42(m)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code

of 1986, as amended, and the requirements of the 2016 QAP, THDA will conduct a

financial feasibility and reasonability review of the development in the event that the

development is desígnøted to receíve ø prelíminary award lelter'"

Page 158: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

In other words, THDA conducts financial feasibility and reasonability review ONLYAFTER the project has been determined to be eligible and ranked high enough to receive thePAL. THDA has not notified the applicant of a PAL in accordance with QAP Part IX.A,Reservation of Tax Credits.

Nowhere in the QAP does it provide for a financial feasibility analysis as part ofeligibility or scoring. See Part VII-A Eligibility or Part VII-B Scoring. Accordingly, it is

arbitrary and capricious for THDA to determine the project is not feasible prior to issuing thePAL and working with the applicant to resolve concerns about the proposed project. See QAPPart IX.A.

We are respectfully requesting that the Tax Credit Committee confirm that there are no

outstanding issues with eligibility and scoring of the referenced application. Further, we are

respectfully requesting the Tax Credit Committee confirm the financial feasibility and

reasonability review will occur AFTER the referenced application "is designated to receive a

preliminary award letter," consistent with the very Review Notice itself. Any other findingwould violate the 2016 QAP Part VII-A Eligibility or Part VII-B Scoring, and therefore be

arbitrary and capricious.

We believe this project is financially feasible and we have not requested more credits

than necessary to build the units. The application complies with the QAP and conforms to marketdemands. We would welcome the opportunity to meet with staff to confirm the foregoing upon

receipt of a PAL (and possibly work with staff toward an allocation of fewer credits than

requested in the application, if appropriate), which is the typical process for underwritingapplications,

With regard to the zoning question, please accept our response and attachments submitted

to Joe Bethel dated Friday, April 15, 2016 at 3:17 PM as our response to this question and please

accept that response and attachments as incorporated by reference as if it were completely set outherein.

We would appreciate the opportunity to discuss in more detail. If you should have any

questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

David Hayes

Scoring Review:

Regarding points claimed for Residency Preference for Households with Children, the responseto the 48 hour email states "At each site (Goodwin Court and Whispering Pines) there is acommunity building which is located on-site and available for tenant use...those communitybuildings contain the subject computer rooms that were indicated in the scoring section," Theresponse to the Cure Notice states that "the community buildings are not owned by theapplicant's project partnership". No points can be awarded for Residency Preference forHouseholds with Children.

Self Score: 92 THDA Score: 86

Other Requirements:

The property control documents submitted do not support the acquisition costs shown in theonline application and on Attachment 1 I and Attachment 12. Per the QAP Section Vll.A. 1 0.a,

"The acquisition cost for Tax Credit purposes shall not exceed the lesser of the purchaseprice or the appraised value." $5,OOO will be allowed for acquisition costs ($1OO per yearrent time 50 years).

The number of buildings in 2016 Phase ll lnitial Application (submitted on CD ROM) and in theonline application is incorrect, The repty to the Cure Notice states that the communitybuildings are not owned by the applicant's project partnership, and therefore should notbe reflected on the application as non-residential buildings, but that is not consistentwith the property control documents submitted. This item remains uncured.

This memo has been prepared as a formal response to THDA's 2016 Review Notice, which was received

by the Applicant on April 25,2016.

We sincerely request your reconsideration for the following: (1) to reconsider the scoring of the project

under the Residency Preference for Household with Children and (2) to satisfy the other requirements listed

in the Review Notice,

THDA Comment:Regarding points claimed for Residency Preference for Households with Children, the response to the 48

hour email states "At each site (Goodwin Courl and Whispering Pines) there is a community building which

is located on-site and available for tenant use,,,those community buildings contain the subject computer

rooms that were indicated in the scoring section," The response to the Cure Notice states that "the

community buildings are not owned by the applicant's project padnership", No points can be awarded forResidency Preference for Households with Children.

Applicant Response:We request that you reconsider the scoring for this category for the Applicant, We believe that the

requested polnfs for Residency Preference for Househo/ds with Children should be awarded to the

Applicant, because the subject propefty and its residenfs will have ful/ access to the seruices and amenities

provided by the Crossyi//e Housing Authority ('CHA) in these community buildings, which are also located

on the site of the project.

The community buildings witt be owned by CHA, which is also the same entity that is the General Paftner of

the Applicant project parlnership, Ihis is required by HUD even though the tenants of the Applicant proiect

paftnership will have ful/ access to the community buildings,

White the community buitding witt be available to the residents of the project, as promised in the LIHTC

application, the community buildings fhemse/yes must remain owned by CHA in order for the buildings to

continue to receive capital and operating subsidies from HUD that pay for many of the seruices that CHA

provides, tf the community buildings are transferred to the tax credit paftnership, these subsidies will no

longer be etigibte to be funded through HIJD, and either (1) CHA will not be able to afford to provide these

socra/ seryices or (2) the project pañnership will need to pay for the seruices out of its operations, which

would financiatly burden the project and make the much-needed renovations of the proiects financially

infeasible.

By maintaining the ownership of the community buildings under CHA, the residents can receive greater

serylces and amenities and the project can leverage the additional outside funding from HUD to the benefit

of the project, CHA, THDA and fhe residenfs,

THDA Comment:The property control documents submitted do not support the acquisition costs shown in the online

application and on Attachment'11 and Attachment 12,Per the QAP Section Vll.A,10,a, "The acquisition

cost for Tax Credit purposes shall not exceed the lesser of the purchase price or the appraised

value," $5,000 will be allowed for acquisition costs ($100 per year rent time 50 years),

Applicant Response:We request that you reconsider the tax credit eligible basis for acquisition cosfs. We believe that the

Page 165: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

acqu¡sit¡on cosf, as reftected in our apptication and development budget, should be $1,485,000, which is

the purchase price reflected in the attached amended sround lease.

The ground lease that was previously provided as evidence of slfe control in the application onlv showed

the ongoing $100 ground lease fee for the land that is paid annually from project operations ($100 for 50

years), The ground /ease was subsequently amended to reflect a one-time payment at the closing of the

tax credit financing of $1,485,000 for use of the building and improvements, which are referred to as "The

Facility" in the ground /ease, The $1,485,000 matches the value of the land and building in the appraisal,

which was atso submitted to THDA. Accordingly, the eligible portion for acquisition tax credit basls of fhis

one-time payment under the ground /ease ls $1,105,000, which also matches the previously submitted

appraisal and apptication, The remaining $380,000 of the purchase price was allocated to land and is not

inctuded in tax credit basis, which matches the appraisal and tax credit application, The $100 annualfee

for 50 years rs inctuded in the prolorma operating expense projection (along with other proiect expenses)

within the Other GeneralExpenses line-item.

The amendment to the ground /ease is attached fo fhls memo as Attachment L

P/ease note that the question regarding the purchase price, as reflected in the site control document, did

not appear on the Cure Memo (received April 8, 2016), Therefore, the applicant was not provided the

opportunity to amend the document untilthis Review Noflce was received,

THDA Comment:The number of buildings in 20'16 Phase ll lnitial Application (submitted on CD ROM) and in the online

application is incorrect, The reply to the Cure Notice states that the community buildings are not

owned by the applicant's project partnership, and therefore should not be reflected on the

application as non.residential buildings, but that is not consistent with the property control

documents submitted. This item remains uncured.

Applicant Response:The Phase tt lnitiat Apptication and the Ontine Application correctly reflect 61 residential buildings and no

community buildings, the reasoning for which is described in the above response, The number of buildings

is correct in the apptication, The community buildings will be carved out of the description of Land and

Facitity in the finat ground tease that will be executed prior to closing. The information that was originally

submitted as supporflng documentation for this question in the Email Notice has been included as

Attachment ll,

THDA Comment:The shape file submitted cannot be opened, Please submit a shape file that is accessible,

I)evelopers Forum Notes

April 19,2016

1, Mike Hedges:

A. Reducing basis boost - handed out a sheet to THDA staff in attendance with an

example using pro forma budget on va¡ious counties without boost, setting rents at

90% of maximum, 60 units, $89 costs per squ¿Ìre foot, .93 cents on credit price. Out

of95 counties only 13 would be viable without boost and only 2 ofthose counties will

work. There are other better ways to solve siting issues without removing boost.

B . Tie breaker - this changed 2 or 3 years ago when large tiers were included in the County

Needs Score. Need to spread out by reducing the large size tiers. Last year, one had

to go to 52 applications to find the next in line with a one point differential.

C. Set-asides - Adding more set-asides will take away from the program and causes

unintended consequences. Don't need scholar house or innovative round especially ifthey are not appealable.

D. Is not in favor ofthe no appeal in the Irurovation round and does not like the subjectivity

in the round

2. David Arning:

A. Would like to postpone adding additional set-asides until RAD set-aside is complete

and removed. Taking on too much at one time.

B. Basis boost - RAD deals are locked in well below market but those that are not RAD

removing the boost will not be good.

C. Need to consider Bond timing and the 15 year application requirement, as developers

need some time to get a deal up and running. Also reconsider removing old lease

restrictions moving forward on deals coming in for re-syndication.

D. Glad to see more Bond activity and ECD consideration on transfer of bond authority to

THDA.

3. Mark Straub:

A. Supports comments on basis boost.

B. Tie breaker is greatest challenge. Consider a development cost iimit for tie breaker.

(Total Development Cost C'TDC) (See HUD) limits will help control costs). How

Page 167: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

can we reduce square foot or real construction costs and how would square foot cost be

maintained. TDC limit would have higher quality. Consider other additional funding,

i.e., CDBG or vouchers for additional leveraging to get a better, viable project. The

current system encourages cheap products so quality is diminished and games are

played with square footage by building excessively large units. Deals should be drawn

to more community development with sunounding leverage and long term viability.

Additional leverage mechanisms-Federal Home Loan Bank, CDBG, HOME.

C. County needs sco¡es keeps from having fair allocations across the entire state and as

an indicator, the number of applications dropped which is a concern on the developer

side. Need to eliminate or adjust county score for a variance. (Alabama has a 5 point

spread and Georgia has a 20 point spread). Need to create a scoring differential,

D. Supports keeping basis boost

E. The goal should be higher quality with controlled cost

4. Joyce Floyd:

A. RAD is near and dear. 30Yo RAD set-aside has been critical. She does worry about

hindering program if more set-asides a¡e added so maybe postpone until RAD deals

are completed. It's bettel to do something really well. RAD deals won't be done in 2

years, consider extending the RAD set-aside.

B. Enterprise Green - concemed about t}re costs.

C. The Developer Experience has caused ce¡tain entities to pull funds that could be used

towards the development to purchase developer experience from $300K to $350 K.

Feels that mixed finance deal experience should be allowed for Developer Experience.

D. Phases and amenities - concerned about 4 phases having to build 4 playgrounds, etc.

E. Amenities-allow an MOU to be used fo¡ existing facilities in place like a boys and girls

club instead of building a community room.

5. Phyllis Vaughn:

A. Ditto Joyce's comments on Enterprise Green. Concemed about costs. $1,000 per unit

plus a need to hire a consultant to make sure Enterprise Green is met which takes homes

away from families by doing this, and Tennessee does not offer any soft funds to absorb

the costs.

Page 168: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

B. Eliminate the Scholar House Proposal as it is too costiy as the average submittal is

$15K for a gamble over an unknown amount ofLIHTC. Does not like the subjectivity.

Feels that there are too many set asides, this would work better in the Housing Trust

Fund. No syndicator would have an appetite for this type ofdeal.

C. Innovative Round - doesn't like the fact that staff chooses as it puts them at risk of

being called out be disgruntled developers that don't get an allocation. By adding more

set-asides it takes away from new constructions.

D. Tie breaker - now that the Bond program works, the current tiebreaker between new

and rehab gives rehab an advantage not new construction - should change that to

promote new construction in the 90lo arena.

E. Preservation - remove or reduce set-aside since the Bond program is now working.

The 9Yo progam is the only thing that works for new construction. Lower the

preservation set aside to 10% since the bond program is working so well.

F. County needs score has too many in one tier. Too much pressure on the tie breaker.

G. Ditto with Hedges and Aming on basis boost.

H. Market Study language * asked Mike Blade for clarification.

RE: 2017 QAP Comments/Suggestions

Dear Mr. Blade:

The Fortus Group appreciates THDA's continuli cl i: ¡r rs to include LIHTC stakeholders in the QAPdevelopment process. Open communication bcl\\'c rtrkeholders and THDA is essential for programsuccess. I hope you find our comments uscl'ul ir , \, craft Llìe 2017 QAP.

Innovation:

As was mentioned in the recent Developer Forunr, if THDA moves forward with a new "innovative"award concept, we encourage THDA to fund these p|ojects outside the 9olo program. The 9o/o programalready has a sizeable set-aside for "innovative" deals, i.e. RAD proposals. As has been stated, THDA isthe only housing finance agency, or onc ol-r,ell fì rv rr.rencies funding RAD deals through the 9%program, and therefore, this qualifies a: innovr rir,

Should the decision be made that "innovr:rir c ' ¡ ,:: ,..;irls are best funded through the 90lo program, werecommend this take effect in 2018, after the R,\D scrasìde expires in 2017.

Thank you for your consideration ofthcse comr¡lents. Ifyou would like to discuss this, or other issues,please contact me at 513-755-2571.

Attn: Michael Blade

502 Deaderick StreetThird FloorNashville, Tennessee 37243

Dear Mr. Blade,

we would like to provide some comments and recommendations regarding potential tie-

breakers forthe Tennessee Housing Development Agency's (THDA) QAP. We appreciate

THDA's thoughtful consideration of our recommendations.

The eAp ¡dent¡fies a tie breaker based on the least Tax Cred¡ts per square foot of heated floor

space. Last year 90% of the applications all had the same score. lnstead of developments being

evaluat€d based on the quality of the projects, th€ benefits to their comrnunity, or how they

might support the lowest income families, the awards were based on how inexpensively the

project could be developed.

Unfortunãtely, the 2016 tie-breaker creates an incentive to build the cheapest product possible

instead of an incentive for building higher quality energy efficient products. At the same time,

this tie breaker encourages distorted development and favors preservat¡on projects which

already have a set-aside.

It is recommended that the current tie breaker be removed. THDA might consider a tie breaker

that prov¡des leverage or subsidy providing affordable housing to the lowest income families.

Additional sources of funding are typically necessary to supplement LIHTC equity and

permanent financing to allow for providing affordable housing to very low-income families.

Benefits to leveraging of additional funds:

1-) help spread THDA LIHTCs further,2.) provide stronger and more effective developments,3.) allow for servicing lower income residents,

4.) demonstrate local supPort and,

5.) further stratify/differentiate application scores.

It is recommended that THDA consider add¡ng some of the following languaÊe for tiebreakers:

tffi

Page 173: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

ln the event of a tie between two or more applications, the projects will be ranked in thefollowing order to determine which applicant will receive priority:

1. ln the event there is a tie in scoring among two or more applications, then a

recommendation will be made for the application that has the most amount ofaggregate commitment(s) for additional subsidies from the Federal Home Loan Bank

for Affordable Housing Program (AHP) funds (AHP funds must be in the form of a

grant), Federal H¡stor¡c Tax Credit, HOME funds (THDA's HOME funds do not qualify),

USDA Rural Development 515 funds, CDBG, Rental Assistance Demonstration funds,Neighborhood Stabiiization Program funds, Capital Fund Program Grant, Replacement

flùusing Factor funds, NeigtrborhoodWorks Capt'tal Grant t{om€ D€pot FoundatioGrand and HUD's Economic Development lnitiative program funds allocated throughthe Community Development funds. The commitment must be a fully executed firmcomm¡tment from the applicable entity that will be granting the funds to the project.

To qualify for receiving additional subsidies (meeting the above criteria), if the fundsare loaned {require repayment) or granted to the project, at least 50% of the totalamount of the funds committed for points must remain as â permanent source offunds.

2. lf a tie{s) still remains, priority wili be given to the application that has the mostarnount of aggregat€ {ornmìtrnent{s) from unrelated third party{ìes) {foünd.atìon, trìlst,and/or government) for investment(s) of resources that will result in off-siteinfrastructure improvements; the development of parks, green space, and sharedamenities; and/or recreational facilities. Th¡s ¡nvestment in "off-site" ¡mprovementsmust be on property adjacent to the proposed project site and serve the tenant base

for the subject project.

The proposed improvements, amen¡ties and/or facilities must be performed in

conjunction with the project. The development cost and source of funding associatedwith the development of the improvements, amenities and/or facilities must bemutually exclusive of the development cost and sources of funding for the subjectproperty. The cost for the improvement must be paid in full by the unrelated thirdpaity. f).amples of thi¡d party improÌ€m€nl, amenity, and facility inv€stment ofresources include, but are not limited to, the following:a. Construction of off-site or on-site access road which is required for access to the

property;b. Development of parks, green space or walking trails on a master plan development

site;c. Development of YMCA, youth center, senior center, or comparable community

center; and/ord. Construction of sidewalks or streetscape adjac€nt to the property.

Third party ¡nvestments that are commun¡ty wide in scope or part of the commun¡tylocal action plan will not be eligib{e for poiñts in this section.

The applicant must provide documentation to incfude; the written commitment offunds, detail on the source of funding, the full amount of the ¡nvestment, and thetimeline for completion.

We appreciate your consideration of our feedback and recommendations that couldprovide the infusion of additional funding to work in concert with THDA's Low lncomeHousing Tax Cred¡ts that affects the ent¡re state.

Re: 2017 Qualified Allocation Plan ScorÌng System

Dear Mr. Blade,

As a Flor¡da-based developer with multiple awards last year, I am a proponent of replacing the currentTH DA tie-breaker w¡th a lottery more similar to that used here in Flor¡da. lbelieve eãch state authoritystrives to publish a Qualified Application Plan that is b¡ack and white and not open to interpretation oroutside influences. However, I believe that the current system requires any appl¡cant to make

assumpt¡ons ând des¡gn dec¡sions that conflìct w¡th the affordable product you hope to receive-

I would ðdd that a lottery system doesn't prohibit THDA from establishing a baseline for scoring, nordoes it preventTHDA from continuing to allocate to particular set as¡des. ltwould m€rely replace thetie-breaker and allow forthose applications thât met both the mandatory requirements as well as ân

estâblished scor¡ng maxímum to be further considered for allocation-

I would point you to any of the 2015 RFA s that included an allocatíon of credits last year for furtherinformation. They each specifically illustrate the scoring and selection processes and can be found

onl¡ne at httÞ://www.floridahousins.orglDeveloÞers/MultiFam¡¡vProsrams/Comoetitivel20l5/.

RE: 2017 QAP

Dear Mike:Please considel the following in the preparation ofthe final 2017 QAP.

lnnovatior Set-Aside:Tlre proposed l5% Innovation SelAside is very large. ln our opinion much too large. The concept offundingan innovative development that meets THDA goals but is not constrained by the particulars of the QAP is

interesting. Ifthe set-aside moves ahead we urge THDA fo consider a single transactiorr witlr a cap of$500,000ofannual credits. Any dollar sperrt on this set-aside will directly reduce the amount of resources available tofund the traditional, but no less valuable or worthy, developrnents serving iow-income households across TN.

Scholar House:If tl'lere is a demonstrated need and demonstrâted capacity to meet the need of the intended Scholar Housepopulation, then we recommend that THDA work with the community support organizations and developmentcommunity to esøblish an RFP process to âvr'ard the development services to a qualified developer. The

speculative and capricious nature of "left-over" cledits is not the way to fund a complicated arrd expensive

supportive housing inìtiative.

National Housing Trust Furrds:

We urge THDA to make these funds available as gap funding for bond deals proposing deveJopments thal have

some form of operating or rental subsidy. The inconre rcstrictions on Sec. 8, PH and RD properties will work

very well with the NHTF prograrn requiremerts.

Year I 5 Re-syndication:

As we look alread to continuilg to maintain and preserve existing tax credìt properties, the need to have

certainty regarding eligibility is very important. Accordingly we request that the QAP language be amended to

clearly state that the TN QAP rules follow the IRS rules regarding eligibility for acquisition credits for year l5properties. The IRS rules state that an existing LIHTC properly is eligible for new LIHTC on the acquisitior

basis following the conclusion of the existing l5 year cornpliance period. The QAP should pennit projects

within a reasonable period of the expiration of their compliance period (e.g. 6 montirs) to apply as new tather

than existing developments.

Tie Breaker

Mike, You said reach out if you had an opinion on this. So here it is.

From listening to you at the last meeting, I believe you related that everyone seems to be

unhappy with the current tie breaker scenario. That said, Maybe it is time to take a shot atsomething different for a year or so. I have some bullet points for thoughts.

Lottery:

lamawarealotofpeopledon'tlikethis. But,theeffectofthecurrentsystemasiteffectsthedevelopment of affordable housing is:

Can't build inner city at all, land cost and need for small units prohibit this

Can't build a property that the market demands one bedrooms, need and or Elderly

Developments are being pushed to the edge of populated areas, to find the cheapest land

Developments are driven to have very large units, Of which, the cost to heat and cool themwill be much higher. Further, You are promoting and demanding energy efficiency anddesign, but your actions would be a dichotomy of this green energy pursu¡t.

The Tenants are pressed to the max for rents, which ends up with a large population of rentburdened tenants.

Architectural design and amenities are receiving the cheapest and least costly approach

Smaller developments can't be successful do to economies of scale

lf you initially pursued the lottery plan, following all of your set asides and waterfall ofdevelopments, staff could then work on cures of these individual developments, not all

100. This would save a tremendous amount of time and energy for other needs and

underwriting.

I am aware this takes out the opportunity to maybe be the smarter guy in certa¡ncircumstances, but lt does allow for someone to create a development they are proud of, feelit is meeting the need of the current market, and can be successful, without following only oneplan of attack, Big, Cheap, with the Highest Rents Possible.

I like the opportunity to compete, and if you have other ideas that do not create such a

skewed approach to providing affordable housing, I am all for it. But without such a plan, thecurrent s¡tuation doesn't seem to be in any ones best interest.

Thanks for listeningrkt

Comments to the 2017 QAP

Just to recap my comments from the public hearing yesterday in writing:

We encourage removalof Enterprise Green from the program, as the money used to equip the units to Enterprise Green

standards comes directly from the cred¡t program, making those credits unavailable for an additional 10 to 20 un¡ts

annually from THDA's limited allocation of Federal tax cred¡ts. Ten to twenty TN families will not be served annually by

the limited credits ava¡lable to TN in order to prov¡de other tenants with Enterprise Green standards. THDAdoesnothave the additional sources of money going ¡nto the LIHTC program that other states have, such as HOME, hous¡ng trustfund money, state tax credits, etc, to pay for Enterprise Green or other additional added costs imposed by the state

Qualified Allocation Plan. TN only has Federal tax credits available for its multÌfamily program, and added costs take

units DIRECTLY away from TN fam¡l¡es. A direct impact. I recall a discussion in a past board meeting about credit dollars

buying developers to qualify for Developer Experience points, and the incorrect assumption that if credit dollars can be

used to support adding an experienced developer to the cost of the deal, then surely Enterpr¡se Green could also be an

added requirement. That ¡s not a correct evaluãtion of how the numbers work. The "purchase" of adding a developerw¡th experience points, comes directly from the 10% to 15% developer fe e olreødv in Ìhe costs associated with thedevelopment, it does NOT add to the cost. "Purchasing" an experienced developer partner only reduces the profit thedeveloper walks away with, not increased costs or loss of units to THDA and TN. Enterprise Green required cost is an

added cost, and a direct correlation to reducing units produced from the program, to the citizens ofTN. Tennessee's

program can only afford to dr¡ve a Prius, not a Tesla. Other states provide additionalfunds toward their multifamilyprograms, providing the necessary funds to "drive the Tesla". Tennessee can't afford it with our multifamily budget, and

extreme property taxes. lf youwanttoaddbellsandwhistleslikeotherstates,thenfindthemoneytopayforit,butdon't take ¡t away from Tennesseans needing affordable housing opt¡ons.

Use Federal Trust Fund money, or THDA'5 Hous¡ng Trust Fund money to fully fund the proposed Scholar House and

lnnovative Setasides, not Low lncome Housing Tax Credits. Scholar House -Difficult to propose a development to THDA

in an application when we have zero idea of how much money might be available to fund it, and then try to rework thedeal once we do know how m uch is available at the end of the cycle. The stipendsthe studentswill receive for rent

would most likely not cover the monthly rent of a LIHTC unit. Adm¡rable concept, but wrong program for th¡s type ofdevelopment. lnnovative Setaside - Your most compet¡tive, volatile, pressure sensitive program is not the place for staffto make decisions on a "fun" project. Keep the credit program objective, not subjective. Subjective criter¡a is notsuita ble for rational decision ma king, and puts staff in a d irect line of fire for accusations of political payback or simple

favoritism. As a friend of mine used to say, "think about how that might look in the headlines of the Tennessean

newspaper tomorrow morning". Meaning perception is everything. Additionally, syndicators purchas¡ngtax credits

typically don't like odd projects, and prefer to purchase typical family or senior deals, as they are accustomed toseeing. They sell the credits to investors, and odd projects typically don't produce high cred¡t pricing from investors.

Eliminate, or at least reduce, the preservation setas¡de, now that the bond program is open and thriving for thatsegment ofthe market. Based onTHDA'sown presentation atthe last board meeting,60% ofwhatwas produced from

the 2015 TN competitive credit program were rehabilitation projects, at a time when the bond program with 4% credits

is thriving. You have reduced your new construction production at a time when TN ¡s exper¡encing extreme population

growth. The bond program can service ex¡sting development's refinanc¡ng and upgrade needs. The 9% program should

be producing no less than 85% to 95% new construct¡on developments, ¡ncreasing Tennessee's available housing stock

Page 180: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

Do not change the 130% state declared basis boost at this time, and especially not to try and target h¡gher income areas

with credit properties due to recent court decisions on Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing. Your county scoring is theplace for adding in possible scoring points for that type of specific targeting, if the agency feels that is necessary.

T¡e Breaker is not a problem, but is a symptom of the problem, with all scores being the same, you have pushed all thepressure of success or fa¡lure to the tie breaker.

County scores need more separation, to break the pressure on the t¡e breaker. Do not put ten counties in one tier. I

understand why rehab deals want that, but not new construction. That change should relieve some of the pressure onyour tie breaker.

Change the tie breaker language that pushes the winner to rehab if a rehab and new construction deal are tied. You are

verbally asking PHA'S with RAD to subm¡t rehabs in the bond program, but your tie breaker language pushes them into

the 9% program in order to be successful.

Stop all the setas¡des and rehab that continue to move money away from what should be the heart of your cred¡tprogram; family, new construct¡on deals. That is what serves the genera I population of TN, not the small minoritiesofother types ofhousing needs. Thatsmall segment should be served by HoM E, and the Housing Trust programs, both

State and the new upcom¡ng Federal programs.

Tha nks for your timePhyllis

Carr Hagan2017 QAP Input

M ike,

Good to see you yesterday and thanks for the opportunity to comment on the next QAP. ln response to anotherdeveloper comment that was made during the forum, I feel obl¡ged to re¡terate our support for the preservation set-aside w¡thin the 9% program (which, as l'm sure you know, is only 22.5% and not the "29%-30%' suggested yesterday).While the bond program is thriving, about 40% ofthe units planned this year are new construction and 4% credits simplydon't address many ofthe capital needs in a 35-40 year old Section 8 asset, particularly smaller deals - hence ourprevious suggestion to give more cons¡deration to the age of a property/capital needs within the 9% program and torelax application timing and LURC restr¡ctions with¡n the bond program.

I also wanted to repeat that while I th¡nk the innovation set-aside has laudable goals, I don't believe this is the year to doit. Between the 10% nonprofit set-aside, 30% for RAD (which as Joyce mentioned really doesn't begin to put a dent inPHA needs but at least funds some ofthe neediest projects), and a proposed 15% for innovation, you're talking aboutover half of the allocation to special projects. l'm just not sure that's going to result in an outcome where the greatestneeds are being met by the program.

Thanks again, and let us know if we can provide any additional clarification

Tennessee Hous¡nB Development Agency502 Deaderick Street - 3'd FloorNashv¡lle, TN 37243

Dear Mike:

Due to a scheduling conflict, I was unable to deliver these comments in person at THDA'S April19 Developer's Forum. We request that the following written comments be considered as ourtest¡mony on behalf of the Tennessee Developers Council and our members.

Set-asides: GeneralOur membership compr¡ses 25 private and non-profit development firms active in the state of

Tennessee as well as more than a dozen affiliated professionals including syndicators, investors, lenders,

¡nvestment bankers, market analysts and other consultants. Collectively, the association provides a mixof housing types including New Construction, Preservation and Publ¡c Housing Revitalization and targetsa variety of markets ranging from urban to suburban to rural.

Because of the diversity of mem bership, there is not a consensus opinion as to the appropriatesize distribution ofthe set-asides in the QAP, although there is a general consensus that the QAP should

encourage a mix of product types and market types including new construction as well as thepreservation of existing aging affordable rental housing assetsl. lt should be noted there is strong

1 "lt ¡s essent¡al to maintain the quality and availability of ex¡sting affordable rental hous¡ng, along with buildingnew units each year at varying levels of affordab¡l¡ty, to keep up with the growing rental housing demand at all

income Ievels in Tennessee. The ex¡sting affordable housing stock across the state is ag¡ng w¡th more than 70

percent of both units and properties built more than 15 years ago. When look¡ng at deeply subsidized project

based properties, the major¡ty were built more thirty years ago. About a third of Sect¡on I project based contractswill expire over the next f¡ve years. S¡m¡larly, about a third of USDA Section 515 loans wìll reach maturity dates in

the next fìve years...Ag¡ng, deeply subsid¡zed propert¡es (S8PBRA, public housing and USDA) often must recapitalize

over t¡me to afford needed malntenance and rehab¡litation while preserving affordable rent levels. At least some

of these propert¡es carry a large debt load and/or have signifìcant repair needs. W¡thout recap¡talìzation thatincludes infusions of addit¡onal grants, rent subsid¡es, tax credits, or very low interest loans, the lower rents simplydo not cover ongo¡ng operat¡on and maintenance/repa¡r costs. lf existing affordable housing units deteriorate tothe po¡nt that they are no longer habitable or are converted to convent¡onal properties when contracts exp¡re, theneed for new construction of affordable housing will increase but fund¡ng likely w¡ll not rise to meet the demand.

Preservation needs are present throughout the state, but each affordable housing program has vary¡ng needs in

different geographic areas. civen the high need and ¡nadequate funding levels, state and local housing agencies

Page 183: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

consensus of TDC'S membership that THDA not create additional set-asides ¡n the 2017 QAP that would

further d¡lute the available credits available to New Construction or Preservation transactions. lt is the

strong recommendat¡on that THDA defer creating new set-asides until 2018 when its two year 30% set-

aside for the Rental Assistance Demonstration expires.

Set-asides: lnnovat¡on Set-AsideWhile supportive in concept, as stated above, a super majority of TDC members recommend

THDA and the development community defer adoption of the lnnovation Set-Aside until 2018, when

additional allocation becomes available from the RAD set-aside. There is also significant concern fromboth our New Construction and Preservation stakeholders that the likely resulting reduction of either orboth set-asides to create room for the special projects set-asides would have s¡gnificant and adverse

impacts in their respect¡ve communities. Consequently it ¡s recommended that the init¡al 2018 set-aside

be modest in size perhaps only enough to fund a single transaction. 5500,000 in annual credits would be

a significant amount for a new program. Expansion could be considered in future QAPs based on

interest, quality of submissions and other factors.

Furthermore, anticipating that high degree of community support and engagement will likely be

necessary to submit a successful application, we believe a longer lead-time will fac¡litate strongerpartnerships and the alignment of other critical resources ¡n the initial year and will thus result ¡n

stronger appl¡cat¡ons. A delay in ¡mplementation will also allow THDA to adjust ¡ts allocation calendar tobetterfacilitate implementation and application review.

lf an lnnovation Set-Aside is ¡ncluded in the 2017 QAP, it should be made very clear prior toapproval and adoption ideally before the initial draft QAP is released what other set-asides are being

reduced and by how much.

Set-asides: Left-Over CreditsWhile, our membership is open to the concept of targeting "left-over credits" for a specially

targeted project (potentially Scholar House or another special needs population) there are some

challenges associated with the approach. Given the uncertainty in the fund¡ng amount it may be

difficult to attract strong projects and strong developers. ln particular, many developers may not wantto incur the necessary predevelopment costs to submit an application when the potential allocat¡on

amounts are both small and uncertain.

wil¡ need to carefully prioritize which projects to fund and ensure that preservation funding prov¡des a depth orqual¡ty of rehabil¡tation that extends the life of a property as long as possible."

Set-Asides: Scholar HouseTDC acknowledges that there are many mer¡ts to the Scholar House development model and

that targeting this model specifically to youths aging out of foster care may be a helpful approach inaddressing the needs of a very vulnerable population. Before endorsing the concept we believe it isnecessary to address several additional related questions. Learning from our experience with ScholarHouse as well as other projects that target youths ag¡ng out of foster care, we know that thesepopulations have a highly experienced operator and are adequately resourced with rental assistanceand operating funding for the necessary supportive serv¡ces ¡f they are to succeed. lf THDA is going toallocate credits (especially a smaller scale allocation) we believe it should cons¡der in ¡ts evaluation and

underwrit¡ng the developers experience operating supportive housing, soft resources that have beencommitted to the project, rental assistance that has been comm¡tted to the project, as well as thecommitted partnerships with appropriate educational inst¡tutions and/or supportive serviceorgan¡zat¡on along with other factors necessary for the project to succeed. The commitment of rentalassistance seems particularly important for these type of projects, since we anticipate that all of theresidents will be full time students. We also would like to know if county caps w¡ll apply to projectsfunded in the Scholar House "round"? We assume that many of the locat¡ons most su¡ted for Schola rHouse project will be located in the highest ranked urban count¡es which could be problematic.

Set-asides: PreservationA subset of our membership that is primarily engaged in affordable housing preservation

projects recommends THDA reduce the per deal maximum (within the preservat¡on set-aside ONLY) to -5750,000. This will spread the limited resource across a greater number of projects and potentially maymake smaller and rural deals (located in high scoring counties) better able to compete. Additionally,THDA may consider further refining the eligibil¡ty of projects within the preservation set-aside toexplicitly incentivize projects with project-based rental assistance contracts, which tend to be older,have greater capital needs and are at most risk of leaving the affordable portfolio in the short-term.Generally speaking, relatively newer LIHTC only "unassisted Year-15" projects should be able to berecap¡talized using the tax-exempt bond given their age and condition.

County Needs ScoreMany of our members still oppose ass¡gning competitive po¡nts v¡a the county needs score and

strongly believe there are more appropr¡ate selection criteria. We do not have a consensus as to theexact replacement but ideas that have been suggested for consideration includ¡ng targeting areas thatare not m¡nority concentrated, incentivizing proximity to amenities, and leveraged.

TíebreakerWe continue to have concerns that the current tiebreaker does not serve the long term ¡nterests

of affordable housing residents, owners or the program at large. While lt may be effective in breakingties, we note that the tie-breaker:

. can drive down construct¡on quality which has long-term operating and cost ¡mpl¡cations.

Page 185: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

affordable housing developers at a competitive disadvantage in the market place to option and acquireproperties for preservation. We believe that THDA's policy should align w¡th the IRS's stated minimum

standards. Failing that, an alternative and more appropriate standard would be to demonstrate

evidence of change of site control (for example a purchase contract) that is in excess of 15 years from

the initial placed in service date. This will allow developers to prepare an application for projects thatare on the cusp of the 15 year window, while guaranteeing to THDA and the IRS that the minimum 15

year window will be met. Without the availability of acquisition credits Year-15 properties in the marketplace (particularly those that may not be covered by lengthy extended use requirements) will be at

greater risk to be acquired by market-rate developers that will exit the program at the end of theextended use requirement.

National HousingTrust FundOn Apr¡l 5, HUD announced that it would be making its allocations for the National Housing

Trust Funds, with funds available to the states for use as soon as June. Law requires that at least 90% ofthe annual NHTF funds prov¡ded to THDA be used for rental housing - we recommend that 100% ofthese funds be utilized in for multifamily rentalhousing util¡zing the LIHTC. By tying the funds to theLIHTC, THDA is able to leverage private sector dollars to make them go further than any other potential

useage. Also, as THDA is aware, there is no other statewide source of gap funding for affordable rental

housing in Tennessee. Furthermore, the deep-income targeting program requirements align well withpublic housing/RAD, Section 8, RD-Preservation and special-needs projects.

We recommend that first preference for the use of NHTF funds should be directed to qualified

units that utilize the tax-exempt bond program. THDA's recently published "Aging Affordable Rental

Housing in Tennessee and the Need for Preservation" indicates the strong need for additionalpreservation resources, particularly ofthe older subsidized portfolio. Additionalgap funding resources

for the Tax Exempt Bond (TEB) program will facilitate more preservat¡on outside the 9% program and

will similarly benefit new construction projects utilizing TEBs. Additionally, since the RAD set-aside is

oversubscribed, and likely to remain so, this will create another feasible financing path for RAD projects

to pursue before they lose their CHAPS.

We also recommend that THDA set-aside some portion of funds (up to the 25% allowable by

law) for very low-income houses holds, which will marry well with the 4% Tax Exempt Bond income

requirements. To get more bang for their buck, THDA may also consider supplementing these funds

w¡th other available agency resources.

Given our recommendation to allocate available NHTF funds to projects that leverage LlHTcs,

we suggest that the most efficient way to administer the funds would be to integrate the application forthese funds into the tax credit application. This one-stop-shop approach is common ¡n other states thatadm¡nister multifamily gap funds or state credits. Given the l¡mited resources available, we suggest thatTHDA cap the amount offunds it will allocate by transaction and per development. We suggest 510,000per unit or alternat¡ve 5500,000 per project would be appropriate given the current overall allocationprojections. We also believe that ¡t is critical that applicants demonstrate need. We ant¡cipate thatdemand will far outstrip available resources so THDA will also need to consider other potential

tiebreakers. FactorsTHDA mlght consider including readinessto proceed, additional leverage, and/orage of the property or expiration of project base-subsidy (if preservation).

Tax Exempt Bond Program: Maximum Amount of Bond Per Development:

RehabilitationTDC recognizes that as a steward of the LÍHTC portfolio it is paramount that THDA have

safeguards in place to ensure that sufficient standards are met when preserving existing or constructing

new affordable housing utilizing the TEB program. We believe that the current tiered rehab¡litation

system does not account for several significant factors which creates a pol¡cy m¡salignment and prevents

many transactions from effectively utilizing the TEB program.

Under the current program, the amount of rehabil¡tation required is t¡ed to the amount ofbonds required - the larger the issue, the greater the amount of rehabilitation required. lt is our

experience that size of the bond issue often does not correlate to the amount of rehabilitation required

to keeptothe property operational and in compliance for 15 years. Rather, the size of the bond issue is

more often associaled with the size of the property in terms of units or the acquisition cost of theproperty with a greater acquisition cost being indicative of a well maintained property.

Consider the follow¡ng scenario - in the current market place, a well mainta¡ned, cash-flowing

100+ unit Year-15 LIHTC property ¡n a competitive market like Nashville will sell at a high per un¡t cost

that would likely put it in the moderate or substantial rehab tier. The cost ofthe property in this

scenario ¡s driven up because of its size and its condition. The physicalneeds ofthe property may

actually be modest (because ¡t ¡s so well ma¡ntained) requ¡ring only the scope of work necessary in the

limited tier but the developer will be required to undergo a far costlier rehab because of the slze of the

bond issuance, perhaps being forced to replace serviceable systems unnecessarily or even making the

deal financially unviable.

Alternatively, consider this second scenario - A 38 unit property ¡n a soft rural market originally

developed in 1975 under the Section 8 program with substantial deferred ma¡ntenance. The per unit

acquisition cost is likely to be very low because it ¡s a small property with little prospects for rent growth

and likely substantial expenses. This would be a prime candidate for substantial rehabilitation; however,

under the current BPD it might actually qualifu for the limited rehab tier.

TDC considered developing alternat¡ve formula's that would determine the appropriate

rehab¡l¡tation tier that accounted for lTotal Amount Bonds lssuance (minus) appraised land costs] / # ofunits. Wh¡le this probably addresses some ofthe concerns we outlined above ¡t also has weaknesses.

Ultimately, we believe that THDA's most prudent approach would be to set an overall cap on bond

authority per project (and perhaps an additionalcap per unit).

TDc Recommenddtion (F¡tst PteÍerence):we acknowledge that staff and the committee has

rejected recommendations by TDC and others in the past to eliminate the tiered rehab requirement but

we believe that the additional safeguards THDA relies upon in the 9% program to determine the proper

scope of rehabilitation, namely the PCNA and architects certificate adequately protect the state's

interest and that the t¡ered requirements could be eliminated entirely.

TDC RecommendatÍon (second Prefetence)i An alternative recommendation that ¡s preferable

to the current language in the BPD would be to raise the maximum amounts in the moderate and

limited rehabil¡tation categories as follows:

Page 187: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

Moderate Rehabilitation: Maximum S13,000,000Limited Rehabilitation: Maximum: S10,000,000

This will significantly address the dynamics outlined in the hypothetical above, at least for larger scale

projects.

ConclusionOnce again, TDC appreciates the opportunity to provide THDA with this feedback. We would be very

happy to discuss any specifics you might have regarding these comments or other subjects of concern.

TENNESSEE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT AGENCY

LENDING COMMITTEE

March 22, 2016

Pursuant to the call of Chairman, the Lending Committee of the Tennessee Housing

Development Agency Board of Directors met in regular session on Tuesday, March 22, at

10:30 a.m. Central Time in the Nashville Room at the William R. Snodgrass Tennessee Tower,

312 Rosa L. Parks Avenue in Nashville, Tennessee.

The following members were present: Dorothy Cleaves (Chair), John Baker, Benjie Shuler,

and Chairman of the Board Brian Bills. The following Committee member was absent: Ashleigh

Roberts, Greg Turner and Kendra Cooke.

Chairman Cleaves called the meeting to order and called for consideration of the minutes

from the January 26, 2016, meeting. It was noted that a correction should be made to the fifth

bullet point. The word "lower" should be changed to "higher" (than 2014). Upon motion by Mr.

Bills, second by Mr. Baker, the corrected minutes were approved.

Chairman Cleaves recognized Lindsay Hall, Chief Administrative Officer of Single Family

Programs, to present the proposed Mortgage Credit Certification Program (MCC). Ms. Hall

referenced her memo to the Board dated March 10, 2016, and stated that the Board previously

authorized the MCC Program and the carryforward of 2011 and 2012 volume cap, but that program

details, once developed, would come back to the Committee and Board. Ms. Hall called attention

to the board packet containing the program details, including a term sheet, for the MCC Program

to be called "Take Credit". She noted that the MCC Program will be underwritten based on IRS

tax compliance code, in the same way THDA currently underwrites loans, however, MCCs will

not be available for use in conjunction with THDA loans funded with bond proceeds. She

explained that requirements for MCCs are the same as for current THDA loans and include the

same sales price limits, income limits, and primary residence requirement. THDA staff

recommends the following actions:

Ratify publication of the required MCC Notice;

Authorize the Mortgage Credit Certificate Program, as described in the referenced

memo and on the Term Sheet attached to the memo;

Authorize staff to finalize all Program details and all documents and materials, all

as necessary to carry out the Program and to comply with IRS requirements; and

Authorize all appropriate staff to do all things necessary and proper, including

execution of all documents, to carry out the described Program and to comply with

IRS requirements.

Upon motion by Mr. Baker, second by Mr. Shuler, the Committee recommended the above actions

to the Board.

Chairman Cleaves called on Ms. Hall to present information about the Fifth Round of HHF

Funding. Ms. Hall referred to the memo in the board package dated March 11, 2016 from Cynthia

Peraza, Director of Special Programs and noted that Congress authorized $2 billion to be

reallocated to the 19 State Housing Finance Agencies participating in the Hardest Hit Fund (HHF)

Programs, including THDA. She explained that in late February, 2016, THDA staff received

notification of the availability of these funds, with a deadline of March 4, 2016 for THDA to accept

Page 198: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

first phase funding in the amount of $51,945,211 and a deadline of March 10, 2016, to apply for

additional funding. She reported that THDA accepted the first phase of funding and submitted an

application for the second phase of funding that included two program options: (1) a principal

reduction program, as a foreclosure prevention activity to assist certain borrowers who are on fixed

income or permanently disabled, or have a payment ratio over 40%. The principal reduction

amount would be up to $40,000; and (2) a new down payment assistance program to enhance

affordability thereby lessening the likelihood of foreclosure and to stimulate home purchase

activity in targeted areas thereby helping to stabilize neighborhoods. Up to $15,000 would be

offered in target areas and up to $25,000 would be offered for the purchase of foreclosed properties,

deed in lieu, short sales, or properties that have been recently renovated and foreclosed. THDA

staff recommends the following action:

Ratify acceptance of the $51,945,211 in the first phase of additional HHF funding;

Ratify submission of the THDA application for the maximum amount of the second

phase of additional HHF funding;

Authorize the HHF Principal Reduction Program and the HHF Down payment

Assistance Programs as described above, subject to U.S. Treasury approval;

Authorize staff to modify the programs as may be directed by U.S. Treasury; and

Authorize all appropriate staff to do all things necessary and proper, including

execution of all documents, to retain the first phase funding, to apply for and obtain

second phase funding and to carry out the described programs.

Upon motion by Mr. Bills, second by Mr. Baker, the motion was passed.

There being no further business, Chairman Cleaves adjourned the meeting.

MEMORANDUM:

DATE: May 10, 2016

TO: Board of Directors, Lending Committee

FROM: Cynthia Peraza, Director of Special Programs

SUBJECT: UPDATE – Fifth Round of HHF Funding

Earlier this year, Congress authorized $2 billion to be reallocated by the U. S. Treasury

(“Treasury”) to the 19 State Housing Finance Agencies participating in the Hardest Hit Fund

(HHF) Programs, including THDA. In March, 2016, the THDA Board ratified THDA’s

acceptance of the first phase of funding in the amount of $51,945,211 and the application submitted

for second phase funding. In April 2016, THDA was awarded $32.8 million for Phase 2 funding.

The award amount was based on the overall need in Tennessee to recover from high delinquencies

and foreclosures. Since Tennessee’s need was substantially lower than other states participating in

the HHF Program, THDA received significantly less than the maximum permitted amount,

however, the total current funding amount is $84.7 million and THDA will have future

opportunities for additional HHF funding, depending on how funds are used by other participating

state HFAs.

Treasury has encouraged HFAs to design new programs to focus on the needs of the State that will

help prevent foreclosures and stabilize neighborhoods. The programs authorized by the Board in

March include a principal reduction program to be available statewide, a targeted down payment

program to stimulate affordability for first time homebuyers and a targeted down payment

assistance program to stimulate neighborhood stabilization. Those programs were identified

quickly by staff to meet the abbreviated timetable imposed by Treasury to access these funds.

Now, following limited data analysis and initial conversations with Treasury, staff is in the process

of further developing these and other program ideas. Based on preliminary research conducted

within the last month, staff hopes to convince Treasury that certain counties, in addition to Shelby,

Montgomery, Davidson, Rutherford, Hamilton and Knox, should be eligible for targeted programs

funded with HHF resources. Over the next few months, THDA staff will continue to focus their

efforts on gathering data to support and modify the previously authorized HHF Programs and will

bring those modifications to the Board for approval or ratification, depending on required timing.

The 2016 timeline for THDA staff and the HHF Programs are as follows:

May-June: Data will be gathered to support new HHF Program proposals.

July: THDA will submit new HHF Program proposals to the THDA Board and U.S.

Treasury.

August: New HHF Programs will be approved by Treasury. All new HHF Programs must

be operational within 90 days from the date of program approval.

TENNESSEE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT AGENCYGRANTS COMMITTEE

March 22,2016

Pursuant to the call of the Chairman, the Grants Committee of the Tennessee Housing DevelopmentAgency Board of Directors met March 22,2016, at l0:30 A.M. at William R. Snodgrass Tennessee Tower,Nashville Room, Nashville, Tennessee.

The following members were present: John Baker, Ron Jones, Keith Boring for Secretary of StateTre Hargett, and Ann Butterworth for Comptroller Justin 'Wilson. Also present was Chairman Brian Bills.

Mr. Baker called the meeting to order. The first item on the Committee's agenda was approval ofthe minutes from the January 26,2016, meeting. Upon motion by Mr. Jones, second by Ms. Butterwofth,the minutes were approved.

The second item on the agenda was an update on the National Housing Trust Fund. Don Watt,Director of Community Programs reminded the comrnittee that at the January meeting information wasshared regarding the program. It is a newly funded federal program that will support THDA's efforts toincrease and preserve the supply of rental housing for extremely low income families. Because the fundingis at minimum levels, all housing created in the initial year must be at 0-30Yo of AMI. Staff has begun theprogram development phase by completing a survey of interested parties in February, which generafed 479responses. Highlights of the survey are as follows:

o I and 2 bedroorn units were most needed,o Higher preference for housing that did not limit only for certain populations.. With targeting, families and individuals experiencing homelessness was the overwhelming

population with need, followed by elderly and persons with disabilities.o Integrated housing targeted to higher incomes rather than housing exclusively for this

income range.o Lack of affordable, available units was the highest banier identified, followed by lack of

access to rental assistance.o Other baniers included, lack of rental assistance, high land acquisition costs, and

community opposition.

Staff will use this input, as well as information gathered at various meetings to begin to shape thepolicy for the required Action Plan that will be subrnitted to HUD. Staff is awaiting further guidance fromHUD in order to fully develop the Action Plan.

The third item on the agenda was an update on the 2015-2016 HOME Program. Mr. Watt informedthe committee that THDA received 48 applications requesting$22.2 million in funding for the Urban/Ruralround. The agency received 4 applications from CHDOs requesting $1.865 million in funding. The agency

has over $3 million that must be used by CHDOs. Since there is a two-year window to commit funds forCHDO activities, staff anticipates requesting an additional CHDO round at the May meeting. Also, theagency received 22 eligible applications for the 2016 Spring Competitive Grant Round of the Housing TrustFund requesting $7.48 million in funding. THDA also received 61 applications for funding in theCompetitive Grant Round for the Emergency Solutions Program. There is $4.2 million available forfunding.

The fourth item on the agenda was an update of the contract extension requests granted in 2015.

THDA granted 9 contract extensions in 2015. Each of the projects is progressing towards closeout. SumnerCounty was provided a second extension of their 2011 HOME grant deadline in order to allow for thecompletion of construction of the final unit. The unit was completed in December of 2015 and the owner is

residing in the unit. Site work was scheduled to be completed by March 25,2016. There continue to be

issues between the homeowner and the county. THDA has communicated to Sumner County and theirattorney that is the responsibility of the county to deliver a unit that meets HOME requirements, whichincludes signing of the Restrictive Covenant and Deed of Trust, which restricts the property and obligatesthe homeowner. Sumner County failed to take this action on the front end and THDA has left it to their

Page 205: Tennessee Housing Development Agency - Board of Directors Meeting Materials May 24, 2016 › thda.org › Documents › About-THDA › ... · 2016-05-13 · 1, 2016 – March 31,

attorney to make sure the necessary steps are taken to ensure compliance. Ultimately, if THDA determinesthat the requirements have not been met, Sumner County will be liable to repay the HOME funds investedin the project.

The fifth item for consideration was the authorization to prepare and submit the WeatherizationAssistance Program Model Plan which serves as the application to the Department of Energy for theseresources. Applications from states are due to the Department of Energy no later than May l, 2016.Approval was requested to submit the application, subject to review of any significant changes prior to itssubmission by the Board Chair and Executive Director. Brian Bills motioned to approve stafPs request tosubmit the application to the Department of Energy for the Weatherization Assistance Program. Mr. Jonesseconded. The motion was approved with no exceptions.

There being no further business to come before the Committee, the meeting was adjourned.

Funding Recommendations for the 2015-2016 HOME Program

Attached are the staff funding recommendations for the 2015-2016 HOME Program and a recommendation toaddress an extraordinary situation affecting the CHDO Round.

As shown on the table below, the State of Tennessee has been awarded HOME grants totaling $18,584,812 inFederal Fiscal Year 2015 and 2016 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Of thatamount, l0% is set-aside for administrative expenses, líYo for nonprofit housing developers designated as aCommunify Housing DevelopmentOrganization (CHDO). Additionally,T%o of the total amount of the set-asidefor CHDOs is allocated for operating expenses of CHDOs; however, by federal regulation these operating firndsare subtracted from the non-CHDO allocation. Finally, $397,500 in CHDO funds remains from the2014 HOMEAllocation, 5174,121.94 has been returned unspent from prior funding rounds, and $5,413.03 in program incomehas been received.

Reflecting all of the funding allocations and adjustments, the total amount of funding available under the 2015-2016 HOME Program Description to implement eligible program activities is as follows:

The urban areas are the following cor.rnties: Anderson, Blount, Bradley, Carter, Coffee, Dyer, Gibson, Hamilton,Hamblen, Haywood, Loudon, Madison, Maury, Montgomery, Putnam, Roane, Rutherford, Sumner, Unicoi,Williamson, and Wilson. All other counties are considered rural. The 2015-2016 HOME Program Descriptionsets a $750,000 limit on the amount of HOME funding that can be awarded to any one county and a target

minimum grant of $250,000.

In the Rural Matrix, staff is recommending the award of $7,679,000 in program funding and $492,000 inadministrative funds to 19 communities that will improve 214 owner-occupied residences. Successful

applications in Campbell, Fentress, and Scott counties were reduced proportionately in order to comply with the

$750,000 county maximum standard. With this recommendation, $196,879 is recommended to be caried forwardfor allocation in a future funding round. Attached is the proposed Rural Matrix. Staff recommends approval ofthe Rural Matrix as attached.

In the Urban Matrix, staff is recommending the award of $4,334,993 to I I communities that will assist 7

households purchase a home and 175 homeowners improve their residence. With this recommendation,

51,712,134 in funds is recommended to be caried forward for allocation in a future funding round. Attached is

the proposed Urban Matrix. Staff recommends approval of the Urban Matrix as attached.

For the CHDO Matrix, due to extraordinary circumstances, staff is not recommending an award to any applicants

at this point. THDA received four applications under the CHDO round, requesting $1,860,000 in CHDO funds

and $140,000 in operating funds. These applicants were Buffalo Valley, Eastern Eight Community Development

Corporation, Clinch-Powell Resource Conservation and Development Council, and Community HousingPartnership of Williamson County. While each of the applications proposed eligible activities, the four applicants

did not meet the threshold requirement for designation as a Community Housing Development Organization

based on the documentation submitted. As a result, staff does not recommend making an award at this time inorder to ensure compliance with the mandated federal requirements for designation as a CHDO.

Staff also recognizes the importance of THDA's compliance with its federal program obligations to ensure the

commitment of CHDO resources by the respective deadlines of June 30,2017 and June 30, 2018. Therefore,

THDA must act quickly to make the award of CHDO funds to ensure sufficient time for successful CHDOapplicants to implement their projects and commit the HOME resources. Due to these extraordinary

circumstances, staff recommends that the Grants Committee and the THDA Board of Directors authorize a 30

calendar day period for the four applicants to correct deficiencies in their application to meet federal CHDOqualification requirements. Following that period, THDA staff will make a funding recommendation to the Board

at its meeting in July.

5. Elieible Repairs:

ERP is intended to make immediate repairs to an essential system so that the homeowner can

continue to reside in his/her home. ERP does not require that the entire structure be brought intocompliance with codes, but the work done must be in compliance with codes. The following are

approved repair activities and represent the type of repairs ERP is meant to address:

o Roofso Electrical systemso Plumbing systemso Septic systemsr Heating and air systemso Structural repairs to floors or wallso Bathroom modifications and ramps necessary for the homeowner with a physical disability

to access and use the home for basic life functions.

The homeowner will help define the nature of the emergency repair. In many instances, additionalwork will need to be completed to the house that cannot be addressed with ERP and there may notbe a visible difference in the house once the emergency repairs have been completed. Theadministering agency must receive THDA approval to implement activities beyond those notedabove.

When applicable, repair work should include measures to improve the energy efficiency of thehome.

If a home proposed for assistance with ERP funds was built prior to 1978 and a youth under theage of 6 resides full-time in the home, the administering agency must complete a visual lead-based

paint assessment as part of the initial work write up. The administering agency must review theproposed work scope, including the results of the visual lead based paint assessment, with THDAbefore finalizing the work scope and initiating any work activity.

With the understanding that ERP is not to gain code compliance with the entire structure, but tocorrect an immediate issue to an essential system for habitability, only those items that are repaired

as part of the ERP funded project must be inspected by a qualified licensed or FHA approvedinspector. If the administering agency must obtain athird party inspector, the cost of the inspection

is an eligible soft cost for the project.

6. Inelieible Activities:

The following are ineligible activities associated with the ERP funded projects:

The purchase or repair of appliances not permanently attached to the home, includingrefrigerators, dishwashers, washers, and dryers.

7. Contractor OualifTcations

provide the homeowner with a choice of qualified contractors. The administering agency willreview the cost estimates with the homeowner and the homeowner will select a contractor to do

the work. In addition to cost, the ability to respond rapidly to the emergency situation and past

performance can be determining factors in contractor selection.

8. Elieible Administrative Costs:

Funds may be used to pay administrative costs incurred by the administrative agency in the

performance of program activities, but may not exceed the amount of administrative funds

allocated in THDA's agreement with the administrative agency. Administrative funds may be

used for the following activities and as further described in the Emergency Repair ProgramManual:
