Information on MEDCO owned projects (budgets, annual financials, quarterly financials and responses to investor’s questions) are disclosed by way of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board’s (MSRB) Electronic Municipal Market Access (EMMA) website: http://emma.msrb.org
The Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB) was established in 1975 by Congress to protect investors and promote a fair and efficient municipal securities market. To accomplish this mission, the MSRB regulates securities firms and banks that underwrite, trade and sell municipal securities, and collects and disseminates market information. The MSRB operates the Electronic Municipal Market Access (EMMA) website to promote transparency and widespread access to information, provides education and conducts extensive outreach as part of its mission-driven activities. The MSRB is composed of members from the municipal securities dealer community and the public, and is a self-regulatory organization subject to oversight by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
MEDCO strongly encourages those investing in MEDCO issued bonds to sign up to receive reminders and other information on EMMA.

INVESTORS AND OTHERS CAN SIGN UP TO RECEIVE NOTIFICATION ABOUT BOND DISCLOSURES ON THE MUNICIPAL SECURITIES RULEMAKING BOARD’S EMMA WEBSITE
The Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB) is reminding investors and others that they can sign up to receive e-mail alerts when primary market and continuing disclosure documents for individual municipal securities are posted on the Electronic Municipal Market Access (EMMA) website at emma.msrb.org. EMMA is the official source for municipal market disclosures and trade data, and provides free access to official statements, continuing disclosures and trade data about more than 1.2 million municipal securities.
Each day, scores of disclosure documents from bond issuers are posted on EMMA, including annual and other periodic financial filings, operating data, notices of ratings changes, and other types of material events. Investors who track particular securities identified by their unique “CUSIP” numbers can receive an e-mail notification from EMMA every time a disclosure document is posted for the security. Click here for instructions on signing up for e-mail alerts. EMMA, which is a service of the MSRB, is the centralized, electronic repository for all municipal bond disclosure documents and trade data. EMMA collects and makes available to investors hundreds of thousands of municipal bond offering documents, the prices of millions of municipal trades, as well as interest rates and auction results for auction rate securities, interest rates for variable rate demand obligations, daily market statistics and educational material about municipal bonds.
