These rules apply to all <br /> gross proceeds of the issue, including initial bond proceeds and <br /> investment earnings in construction, escrow, debt service, and any <br /> reserve funds. How issuers spend bond proceeds and how they track <br /> interest earnings on funds (arbitrage/yield restriction compliance) are <br /> common subjects of IRS inquiries. Your specific responsibilities will <br /> be detailed in the Tax Certificate prepared by your Bond Attorney <br /> and provided at closing. You have retained Ehlers to assist you with <br /> compliance with these rules, <br /> Presale Report December 10, 2012 <br /> City of Elk River Economic Development Authority, Minnesota Page 3 <br />
