PROMISSORY NOTE 
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 
150 W University Drive, 3rd Floor   
Tempe, Arizona 85281-3640 
Date: July 1, 2026 
Principal Amount: Commitment Amount Cap (as defined in and subject to adjustment from time 
to time in accordance with the hereinafter defined Loan Agreement) 
1.
PROMISE TO PAY AND INTEREST. For value received, the undersigned, EACH 
OF THE DISTRICTS IDENTIFIED IN SCHEDULE I HERETO (each a “Borrower” and 
collectively, “Borrowers”), ACTING THROUGH THE MARICOPA COUNTY TREASURER 
AS THEIR AGENT, promises to pay to or on the order of JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., or 
registered assigns (“Bank”) at its above office, or at such other place as Bank may designate in 
writing, in lawful money of the United States of America, (a) in the aggregate for all Borrowers, 
the principal sum equal to the Commitment Amount Cap (as such term is defined in and subject to 
adjustment from time to time in accordance with the Business Loan Agreement (Maricopa County 
Districts Revolving Line of Credit), of even date herewith (the “Loan Agreement”), between 
Borrowers and Bank, as it may be amended, modified, extended, renewed, restated, or 
supplemented from time to time), and (b) with respect to each Borrower, the lesser of the unpaid 
Advances under the Loan Agreement or the maximum amount shown for such Borrower on 
Schedule I hereto, as it may be amended from time to time, in either case as shown on the records 
of Bank which, when in agreement with the records of a Borrower, shall (absent manifest error) 
be conclusive as to such unpaid amount, with interest thereon from the date advanced at the Interest 
Rate (as hereinafter defined). Neither the Maricopa County Treasurer nor Maricopa County shall 
be liable for amounts owed by any Borrower hereunder.   
2.
INTEREST RATE. The Interest Rate (the “Interest Rate”) during each calendar 
quarter shall be the rate per annum equal to the rate per annum most recently publicly announced 
by Bank, or Bank’s successors, in Phoenix, Arizona, as Bank’s “prime rate”, as in effect from time 
to time, provided that in no event shall the Interest Rate at any time exceed one hundred ten percent 
(110%) of the previous quarter’s weighted average prime rate among the top three financial 
institutions by asset size in the State of Arizona.  The Interest Rate will be redetermined by Bank 
on each day that the “prime rate” changes and any changes in the Interest Rate will be effective on 
and after the date of such change and until the next change.  The “prime rate” is set by Bank based 
on various factors, including Bank’s costs and desired return, general economic conditions and 
other factors, and is used as a reference point in pricing some loans.  Bank may price loans to its 
customers at, above, or below its “prime rate.”  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall 
the Interest Rate at any time be less than zero percent (0.00%).

4925-2976-2967.4  
3.
REQUIRED PAYMENTS; PAYMENT ON MATURITY.  Prior to June 30, 2027, 
or if the Scheduled Commitment Expiration Date under the Loan Agreement has been extended 
by mutual agreement between Borrowers, acting through their agent, the Maricopa County 
Treasurer, and Bank (acting in its sole and absolute discretion), such Scheduled Commitment 
Expiration Date (the “Maturity Date”), payments under this Note shall be made as each Borrower 
receives “nonrestricted operating revenues”, as such term is used in the Act. On the Maturity Date 
each Borrower shall pay to Bank the unpaid principal, all accrued and unpaid interest, and all other 
amounts (“Other Amounts”) payable by such Borrower to Bank under the Loan Documents (as 
defined in the Loan Agreement). 
4.
INTEREST ON PRINCIPAL; DEFAULT RATE. Principal shall bear interest at 
the Interest Rate from the date of disbursement until the due date thereof, whether by acceleration 
or otherwise. Subject to Section 11(b) of this Note, principal, interest, and Other Amounts not paid 
when due and any judgment therefor shall bear interest from its due date or the judgment date, as 
applicable, until paid at a rate (the “Default Rate”) per annum equal to one hundred ten percent 
(110.00%) of the previous quarter’s weighted average prime rate among the top three financial 
institutions by asset size in the State of Arizona (unless a lower maximum rate of interest is then 
applicable under the Act, in which case, the Default Rate shall be such lower rate of interest under 
the Act), and such interest shall be immediately due and payable. 
5.
INTEREST ACCRUAL. All interest under the Loan Documents shall be computed 
on the basis of a 365-day year and accrue on a daily basis for the actual number of days elapsed. 
Each Borrower agrees to pay an effective rate of interest that is the sum of (i) the Interest Rate and 
(ii) any additional rate of interest resulting from any other charges or fees paid or to be paid in 
connection herewith that are determined to be interest or in the nature of interest. 
6.
PAYMENT IN FULL PRIOR TO THE MATURITY DATE. Notwithstanding any 
other provision herein or in the Loan Documents, each Borrower shall pay to Bank all outstanding 
principal, interest and Other Amounts on June 30 of each year relating to such Borrower. So long 
as a Borrower makes such payment, such Borrower shall, subject to the provisions of the Loan 
Agreement, continue to be entitled to Advances pursuant to the Loan Agreement prior to the 
commitment expiration date specified therein. Subject to Section 11(b) of this Note, principal, 
interest, and Other Amounts not paid on June 30 of each year shall bear interest from June 30 until 
paid at the Default Rate, and such interest shall be immediately due and payable. 
7.
APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. At the option of Bank, payments shall be 
applied to principal, interest, and Other Amounts in such order as Bank shall determine. 
8.
PREPAYMENT. A Borrower may prepay the outstanding principal balance hereof 
relating to such Borrower, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the Maturity Date without 
penalty or premium. 
9.
NO COUNTERCLAIMS, DEDUCTIONS, ETC. All payments and other 
obligations of each Borrower under the Loan Documents will be made and performed without 
counterclaim, deduction, defense, deferment, reduction, or set-off.

the obligations in the Loan Documents shall be immediately due and payable, and (ii) exercise any 
or all other rights and remedies of Bank concurrently or consecutively in such order as Bank elects.

Default”), the interest rate on this Note shall not increase to the Default Rate and the Bank shall 
not exercise any remedies after such Payment Default including, without limitation, declaring the

(c) In furtherance of Section 11(b) above, during the Stay Period, the Bank’s commitment 
to make Advances to the defaulting Borrower shall not terminate; provided that such Borrower’s

For the avoidance of doubt, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of 
Default other than an Event of Default set forth in Section 10(a)(i) during the Stay Period, the 
Bank, in its absolute and sole discretion and without notice, may terminate the commitment to 
make Advances to the defaulting Borrower.   
12.
LIMIT OF LIABILITY OF BANK. In exercising rights and remedies, neither Bank 
nor any affiliate thereof or any stockholder, director, officer, employee, agent, or representative of 
Bank or any affiliate thereof shall have any liability for any injury to the assets, business, 
operations, or property of a Borrower or any other liability to Borrower, other than for its own 
gross negligence or willful misconduct.

EACH 
BORROWER

IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS NOTE. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL 
INDUCEMENT TO BANK TO PROVIDE THE FINANCING DESCRIBED HEREIN.
