Ambac Assurance Company (Ambac), Erste Europische Pfandbrief-und
Kommunalkreditbank AG (EEPK) and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Trustee (Wells Fargo,
and collectively with Ambac and EEPK, the POB Creditors), creditors and/or parties in interest
in the above-captioned chapter 9 case, hereby move the Court for an order authorizing the POB
Creditors to examine the City of San Bernardino, California (the Debtor or the City) pursuant
to Rule 2004(a) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and for an order compelling the
City to produce documents and ESI pursuant to Rule 2004(c) of the Federal Rule of Bankruptcy
Procedure. This motion is made pursuant to this Courts Order, dated August 24, 2012, Directing
and Approving Form of Notice and Setting Deadline for filing Objections to the City of San
Bernardino, California Petition (the Order) [Docket No. 111].
The documents and ESI to be produced are listed in Exhibit A. They should be produced
on or before October 11, 2012 at the office of Arent Fox, LLP, 550 West 5
th
Street, 48
th
Floor,
Los Angeles, California 90013, or on such later date and at such other location in the greater Los
Angeles area as the POB Creditors select, upon reasonable, written notice to the City. The POB
Creditors have elected to forgo an examination of the City under oath at this juncture, although
they reserve the right to participate in or observe any examination under oath of the City
conducted by any other party or party in interest.
As is detailed in the accompanying Declaration of Ralph A. Taylor, Jr., the POB Creditors
have been working with the Citys counsel to attempt to agree on whether and what discovery
will be permitted; although some progress has been made, no final agreement has been reached as
of this date. The POB Creditors will continue to work with the Citys counsel to try to reach
agreement as to the right of the POB Creditors to obtain discovery at this stage of the proceeding
and the scope of such discovery.
The POB Creditors proposed investigation relates to the acts, conduct, property, and
liabilities that affect the Citys eligibility to be a debtor under Chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code.
The examination the POB Creditors seek cannot proceed under Rule 7030 or Rule 9014 of
the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure because there is currently no adversary proceeding
matter pending before this Court under which the proposed examination could take place, and the

City disputes that there is currently a contested matter pending before this Court under which the
proposed examination could take place.
I.

BACKGROUND
A. The POB Creditors
The POB Creditors are creditors of the City and/or interested parties in this proceeding in
connection with certain municipal bonds. Specifically, the City issued its City of San Bernardino
Taxable Pension Obligation Bonds in the aggregate principal amount of $50,401,582.90,
consisting of (i) the 2005 Series A-1 (Standard Bonds), in the aggregate principal amount of
$36,050,000 (the Series A-1 Bonds), and (ii) the 2005 Series A-2 (Capital Appreciation Bonds),
in the initial aggregate principal amount of $14,351,582.90 (the Series A-2 Bonds and,
collectively the Series A Bonds), pursuant to that certain Trust Agreement dated October 1,
2005 (the Trust Agreement), by and between the Trustee and the City. The City issued these
bonds to re-fund the Citys obligations to the California Public Employees Retirement System
relating to City employee pension benefits.
Wells Fargo is the trustee under the Trust Agreement, and thus an interested party in this
proceeding. EEPK owns 100% of the Series A Bonds. It is the primary obligee under the Series
A Bonds, and thus an interested party in this proceeding.
Ambac issued a financial guaranty insurance policy, dated December 23, 2005 (the
Policy), insuring regularly scheduled principal and interest payments with respect to the Series
A-2 Bonds. Pursuant to the Policy, to the extent the City does not satisfy its payment obligations
under the Series A-2 Bonds, Ambac will be obligated to pay the bondholders (e.g., EEPK) the full
principal and interest payments when due, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the
Policy. As a condition to payment of the insurance benefits to the bondholder, the bondholders
are obligated to assign their right, title, and interest in the Series A-2 Bonds to Ambac, and
Ambac is subrogated to all rights and remedies of the bondholders to the extent of Ambacs
payments under the Policy. Ambac is, accordingly, a party in interest in this proceeding.

B. The Need for Discovery Regarding the Citys Eligibility for Chapter 9 Relief
On August 1, 2012, the City filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 9 of the
Bankruptcy Code. The City did not negotiate with creditors prior to the filing of the bankruptcy
petition. As a result, the POB Creditors lack sufficient information about the Citys financial
condition and other issues relating to its Chapter 9 eligibility.
It is well settled law that [c]onsidering the bankruptcy court's severely limited control
over the debtor once the petition is approved, access to chapter 9 relief has been designed to be an
intentionally difficult task.
1
Because of the judicial disfavor of municipal bankruptcies, a
government entity desiring protection under chapter 9 must show that it meets a stringent
eligibility test.
The core eligibility requirements are imposed by Bankruptcy Code Section 109(c). That
provision requires, among other things, a showing that the City is insolvent.
2
In addition, in order
to be eligible for chapter 9 protection, the debtor must show that it is unable to negotiate with
creditors because such negotiation is impracticable or reasonably believes that a creditor may
attempt to obtain a transfer that is avoidable under section 547 of this title.
3

Separately from establishing the core eligibility requirements pursuant to Section 109(c),
discovery is needed to obtain evidence on the issues of whether the City qualifies as a debtor and
whether the Citys bankruptcy filing was in good faith within the meaning of Section 921(c).
Bankruptcy Code section 921(c) permits a dismissal of a chapter 9 petition if the debtor did not
file the petition in good faith or if the petition does not meet the requirements of this title.
4
Here,
the City declared a fiscal emergency, which enabled it to seek bankruptcy protection without
engaging in pre-petition settlement negotiations with creditors as required by California law.
Specifically, absent a fiscal emergency, the California Government Code requires financially
distressed municipalities to engage in a neutral evaluation process with its creditors.
5
The
legislative intent underlying this requirement is to require municipalities to explore consensual

resolution with creditors in an attempt to avoid resorting to chapter 9.
6
The neutral evaluation
process contemplates that the negotiations will be facilitated by disclosure of relevant financial
and budget information.
7

A municipality may avoid the neutral evaluation process only by declaring a fiscal
emergency pursuant to California Government Code 53760.5. Under that provision, the City
Council is permitted to declare a fiscal emergency only upon a finding that (i) the financial state
of the local public entity jeopardizes the health, safety, or well-being of the residents of the local
public entity's jurisdiction; and (ii) the public entity is or will be unable to pay its obligations
within the next 60 days.
8
According to the Statement of Qualifications, it appears that the City
Council made the required findings and passed a resolution declaring a fiscal emergency on or
about July 18, 2012.
9

However, Section 921(c) looks beyond mere mechanical compliance with the law. The
good faith provision protects the integrity of the reorganization process by requiring
municipalities to anticipate and act to avoid having to seek chapter 9 protection.
10
The good
faith requirement is necessarily fact specific and, therefore, must be decided on a case-by-case
basis.
11
In determining whether a chapter 9 filing is in good faith, courts are guided by the good
faith standard applicable to chapter 11.
12

C. Efforts to Engage in Informal Discovery
During the pendency of this case, the POB Creditors and the City, through counsel, have
engaged in significant, good faith discussions regarding the need for reasonable, and timely,
discovery regarding the Citys eligibility for relief under Chapter 11.

Although the discussions have been fruitful, as of this date, the parties have not reached a
final agreement on whether or how much discovery the City will provide. The POB Creditors
will continue to work with the Citys counsel to try to reach agreement before the September 18,
2012 response deadline as to the right of the POB Creditors to obtain discovery at this stage of the
proceeding and the scope of such discovery.
II.

DISCUSSION
Pursuant to Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 2004(a), after a motion by any party
in interest, the Court may order the examination of any entity. The examination may relate to
any acts, conduct, or property or to the liabilities and financial condition of the debtor, or to any
matter which may affect the administration of the debtors estate . . . .
13

In order to evaluate the Citys eligibility for relief under Chapter 9, the POB Creditors
seek access to documents and ESI directly relevant on the issues, including, but not limited to, the
Citys financial condition, including the extent of any fiscal emergency faced by the City and the
Citys efforts, if any, to negotiate with its creditors regarding a plan of adjustment of alternatives
to bankruptcy relief. The POB Creditors request authority to have such documents and ESI
produced on October 11, 2012 at the office of Arent Fox, LLP, 550 West 5
th
Street, 48
th
Floor,
Los Angeles, California 90013, or on such later date and at such other location in the greater Los
Angeles area as the POB Creditors select, upon reasonable, written notice to the City. The
documents to be produced are listed on Exhibit A. As a part of their good faith discovery
negotiations with the City, the POB Creditors have agreed to forego an examination under oath at
this juncture.
According to the Citys bankruptcy petition and other filings, its address for purposes of
this motion is City of San Bernardino, California, 300 North "D" Street, San Bernardino,
California 92418.

DECLARATON OF RALPH A. TAYLOR, JR
I, Ralph A. Taylor, Jr., declare as follows:
1. I am a partner in ARENT FOX LLP and counsel for Ambac Assurance Company
("Ambac"), Erste Europaische Pfandbrief-und Kommunalkreditbank AG ("EEPK") and Wells
Fargo Bank, N.A., as Trustee ("Wells Fargo," and collectively with Ambac and EEPK, the "POB
Creditors"), creditors and/or interested parties in this bankruptcy case.
2. I submit this declaration in support of the POB Creditors' motion for an order
authorizing the POB Creditors to examine the City of San Bernardino, California (the "Debtor" or
the "City") pursuant to Rule 2004(a) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and for an
order compelling the City to produce documents and ESI pursuant to Rule 2004(c) of the Federal
Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure. The following is stated of my own personal knowledge or belief.
3. Counsel for the parties have engaged in extensive meet and confer discussions in
connection with the relief sought by this motion. The POB Creditors, through their counsel, have
regularly communicated with Paul R. Glassman of STRADLING YOCCA CARLSON &
RAUTH, P.C., counsel for the City, throughout the pendency of this case. They have discussed
the entitlement to and scope and timing of discovery sought by the POB Creditors in order to
evaluate the City eligibility for relief under chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code.
4. Although the discussions have been fruitful, as of this date, the parties have not
reached a final agreement on discovery issues. This motion is made pursuant to this Court's
Order, dated August 24, 2012, Directing and Approving Form ofNotice and Setting Deadline for
filing Objections to the City of San Bernardino, California Petition, which, among other things,
set September 11, 2012 as the deadline for filing motions seeking discovery from the City.
5. Resort to Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure Rule 2004 to compel discovery
from the City is appropriate. There is currently no adversary proceeding matter pending before
this Court under which the POB Creditors can examine the City pursuant to Federal Rules of
Bankruptcy Procedure 7030 or 9014. In addition, in the prior meet and confer discussions, the
counsel for the City indicated the City disputes that there is currently a contested matter pending

1 before this Court under which the proposed examination could take place.
2 6. In light of the foregoing, a Rule 2004 examination is necessary and appropriate to
3 thoroughly evaluate the City's financial practices, assets and liabilities, as well as other aspects of
4 the City's chapter 9 eligibility.
5 7. Based upon the City's bankruptcy petition, I believe its principal address for
6 purposes ofthis case is City of San Bernardino, California, 300 North "D" Street, San Bernardino,

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Each request for production is intended to be continuing, and you are requested to
promptly and seasonably amend your responses if at any later date you obtain any additional

but come within your possession, custody, or control or become identifiable or available at some
future time, you shall notify counsel for the Requesting Parties in writing and shall provide the
documents or ESI to counsel for the Requesting Parties in a timely manner, but in no instance
later than thirty (30) days after such documents or ESI are obtained or such shorter time as
required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or order of the Court.
2. If you contend that you are entitled to withhold from production any part of any
document or ESI requested on the basis of the attorney-client privilege, the work-product
doctrine, or any other basis, then for each such document or ESI, state:

by instruction 2 above as to each part withheld, redacted, or altered, and provide the date of the
redaction or alteration and the person performing the redaction or alteration.
5. More than one of these requests may ask for the same document or ESI. The

business or organize and label them to correspond with the categories in the request. Documents

If no document or ESI exists that is responsive to a request, so state.
8. Absent written agreement or order to the contrary, ESI should be produced in its
native format in the file type for (or of) the application in which such ESI is normally created,
viewed, and/or modified (for example, and for example only, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, E-mail,
