This Resolution concerns the approval by the Board of Commissioners for the issuance, offer and sale by the Harnett County Farm Bureau of debentures in an amount not to exceed $200,000.00. The proceeds from this debenture sale shall be used to construct a Farm Bureau operations building in Dunn, N.C. In order for this debenture sale to be exempt from the provisions of the North Carolina Securities Act, it is necessary that Harnett County Farm Bureau which is a non - profit corporation show that it was organized for the purpose of promoting community and agriculture development in the Harnett County area. In addition Farm Bureau must also show that the proposed debenture offer has been approved by resolution of the County Commissioners and the municipal governing body where the principal office is located. In the attached Resolution, the Harnett Board of Commissioners would be approving the offer and sale of the Harnett County Farm Bureau debentures. This Resolution would assist Farm Bureau in exempting this debenture offer under the terms of N.C. General Statutes §78A- 17(13). As further stated in the Resolution, this approval by the Board of Commissioners is in no way an endorsement or guarantee by Harnett County or the Board on the debentures and there would be no liability by the County or the Board regarding the same.
