or a day on which banking institutions in the city where the principal corporate office of the Paying
Agent/Registrar is located are authorized by law or executive order to close, or the United States

day which is not such a Saturday, Sunday, legal holiday, or day on which banking institutions are
authorized to close, or the United States Postal Service is not open for business; and payment on such
date shall have the same force and effect as if made on the original date payment was due.
THIS BOND is one of a series of bonds of like tenor and effect except as to number, principal
amount, right of prior redemption and maturity, aggregating Five Million Three Hundred Sixty
Thousand Dollars ($5,360,000) (herein sometimes called the 'Bonds "), issued for the purpose of
refunding the Refunded Bonds of the Issuer, as defined in the Bond Ordinance, in accordance with
the Constitution and laws of the State of Texas, particularly Article 717k, V.A.T.C.S., and pursuant
to an ordinance passed by the City Council of the Issuer and duly recorded in the minutes of said City
Council (the 'Bond Ordinance "). The Bonds are issuable solely as fully registered bonds, without
interest coupons, in the denomination of any integral multiple of $5,000.
THE ISSUER reserves the right to redeem the Bonds maturing on and after August 1, 2006
in whole or in part in principal amounts of $5,000 or integral multiples thereof on any date on and
after August 1, 2005, at the redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued
interest to the redemption date. If less than all of the Bonds are to be redeemed, the Issuer shall
determine the maturity or maturities and the amounts thereof to be redeemed and shall direct the
Paying Agent/Registrar to call by lot Bonds, or portions thereof, within such maturity or maturities
and in such principal amounts, for redemption; provided that during any period in which ownership
of the Bonds is determined by a book entry at a securities depository for the Bonds, if fewer than all
of the Bonds of the same maturity and bearing the same interest rate are to be redeemed, the
(Ay: 271 5.01 Sbrdin96.ww - 4116196) 9
particular Bonds of such maturity and bearing such interest rate shall be selected in accordance with
the arrangements between the Issuer and the securities depository.
AT LEAST 30 days prior to the date fixed for any redemption of Bonds or portions thereof
prior to maturity, a written notice of such redemption shall be sent by the Paying Agent/Registrar by
United States mail, first -class postage prepaid, to the registered owner of each Bond to be redeemed
at its address as it appeared on the business day next preceding the date of mailing such notice;
provided, however, that the failure to send, mail or receive such notice, or any defect therein or in
the sending or mailing thereof shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the proceedings for the
redemption of any Bond, and it is hereby specifically provided that the delivery of such notice to the
Paying Agent Registrar as required by the Bond Ordinance shall be the only notice actually required
in connection with or as a prerequisite to the redemption of any Bonds or portions thereof. By the
date fixed for any such redemption, due provision shall be made with the Paying Agent/Registrar for
the payment of the required redemption price for the Bonds or portions thereof which are to be so
redeemed. If such notice of redemption is given and if due provision for such payment is made, all
as provided above, the Bonds or portions thereof which are to be so redeemed thereby automatically
shall be treated as redeemed prior to their scheduled maturities, and they shall not bear interest after
the date fixed for redemption, and they shall not be regarded as being outstanding except for the right
of the registered owner to receive the redemption price from the Paying Agent/Registrar out of the
funds provided for such payment. If a portion of any Bond shall be redeemed, a substitute Bond or
Bonds having the same maturity date, bearing interest at the same rate, in any denomination or
denominations in any integral multiple of $5,000, at the written request of the registered owner, and
in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof, will be issued to the
registered owner upon the surrender thereof for cancellation, at the expense of the Issuer, all as
provided in the Bond Ordinance.
ALL BONDS OF THIS SERIES are issuable solely as fully registered Bonds, without interest
coupons, in the denomination of any integral multiple of $5,000. As provided in the Bond Ordinance,
this Bond may, at the request of the registered owner or the assignee or assignees hereof, be assigned,
transferred and exchanged for a like aggregate amount of fully registered Bonds, without interest
coupons, payable to the appropriate registered owner, assignee or assignees, as the case may be,
having any authorized denomination or denominations as requested in writing by the appropriate
registered owner, assignee or assignees, as the case may be, upon surrender of this Bond to the
Paying Agent/Registrar for cancellation, all in accordance with the form and procedures set forth in
the Bond Ordinance. Among other requirements for such assignment and transfer, this Bond must
be presented and surrendered to the Paying Agent/Registrar, together with proper instruments of
assignment, in form and with guarantee of signatures satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar,
evidencing assignment of this Bond or any portion or portions hereof in any authorized denomination
to the assignee or assignees in whose name or names this Bond or any such portion or portions hereof
is or are to be registered. The Form of Assignment printed or endorsed on this Bond may be
executed by the registered owner to evidence the assignment hereof, but such method is not
exclusive, and other instruments of assignment satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar may be
used to evidence the assignment of this Bond or any portion or portions hereof from time to time by
(&y: 2715.015\ordin96.ww - 4/16/96) 10
the registered owner. The Issuer shall pay the Paying Agent/Registrar's reasonable standard or
customary fees and charges for transferring and exchanging any Bond or portion thereof. Any taxes
or governmental charges required to be paid with respect thereto shall be paid by the one requesting
such assignment, transfer or exchange, as a condition precedent to the exercise of such privilege. The
Paying Agent/Registrar shall not be required to make any such transfer or exchange with respect to
any Bond or any portion thereof called for redemption prior to maturity, within 45 days prior to its
redemption date; provided, however, such limitation of transfer shall not be applicable to an exchange
by the Registered Owner of an unredeemed balance of a Bond called for redemption in part.
WHENEVER the beneficial ownership of this Bond is determined by a book entry at a
securities depository for the Bonds, the foregoing requirements of holding, delivering, or transferring
this Bond shall be modified to require the appropriate person or entity to meet the requirements of
the securities depository as to registering or transferring the book entry to produce the same effect.
IN THE EVENT any Paying Agent/Registrar for the Bonds is changed by the Issuer, resigns,
or otherwise ceases to act as such, the Issuer has covenanted in the Ordinance that it promptly will
appoint a competent and legally qualified substitute therefor, and promptly will cause written notice
thereof to be mailed to the registered owners of the Bonds.
BY BECOMING the registered owner of this Bond, the registered owner thereby
acknowledges all of the terms and provisions of the Bond Ordinance, agrees to be bound by such
terms and provisions, acknowledges that the Bond Ordinance is duly recorded and available for
inspection in the official minutes and records of the Issuer, and agrees that the terms and provisions
of this Bond and the Bond Ordinance constitute a contract between each registered owner hereof and
the Issuer. The Issuer has reserved the rights in the Bond Ordinance to issue additional parity
obligations to the Bonds and to amend the provisions of the Bond Ordinance under the conditions
set forth in the Bond Ordinance.
THE BONDS are special obligations of the Issuer payable, together with the Issuer's
Series 1986 Bonds and Series 1995 Bonds (as defined in the Bond Ordinance), solely from and
equally secured by a first lien on and pledge of the "Pledged Revenues" (as such term is defined in
the Bond Ordinance) of the Issuer's combined Water and Sewer System on a parity with the

Improvements, or for any other lawful purpose (except for Capital Additions or for refunding, which
are to be issued in accordance with the provisions of clauses (d), (e) or (f) of this Section) unless and
until the conditions precedent in clause (a) above have been satisfied and, in addition thereto, the City
has secured:
(i) for the issuance of Priority Bonds, a certificate or opinion of the Accountant to the effect
that, according to the books and records of the City, the Net Earnings (hereafter defined) for the
preceding Year or for 12 consecutive months out of the 15 months immediately preceding the month

days prior to the last day of the period for which Net Earnings are determined and, for purposes of
satisfying the above Net Earnings test, make a pro forma determination of the Net Earnings for the
period of time covered by his certification or opinion based on such change in rates and charges being
in effect for the entire period covered by the Accountant's certificate or opinion; or
(ii) for the issuance of Subordinate Lien Bonds, a certificate or opinion of the Accountant
to the effect that, according to the books and records of the City, the Net Earnings for the preceding

in the rates and charges for services and facilities afforded by the System that became effective at least
sixty (60) days prior to the last day of the period for which Net Earnings are determined and, for
purposes of satisfying the above Net Earnings test, make a pro forma determination of the Net
Earnings of the System for the period of time covered by his certification or opinion based on such

after deducting the Operating Expenses of the System, but not expenditures which, under standard
accounting practice, should be charged to capital expenditures.
(c) The City covenants and agrees that neither Priority Bonds nor Subordinate Lien Bonds
may be issued for the purpose of financing Capital Improvements when other outstanding Priority
Bonds or Subordinate Lien Bonds have been issued for Capital Additions and capitalized interest for

Capital Improvements, rather than Capital Additions, are then to be financed) and has secured:
(i) for the issuance of Priority Bonds, a certificate or opinion of the Accountant to the effect

Bonds being issued that are payable from and secured by a lien on and pledge of the Pledged
Revenues of the System, and (b) 1.25 times the Average Annual Principal and Interest Requirements

precedent specified in clause (b) above are satisfied or, in the alternative, the City shall have obtained:
(i) from the Engineer of Record a comprehensive Engineering Report for each Capital
Addition to be financed, which report shall (A) contain (1) detailed estimates of the cost of
acquiring and constructing the Capital Addition, (2) the estimated date the acquisition and
construction of the Capital Addition will be completed and commercially operative, and (3)
a detailed analysis of the impact of the Capital Addition on the financial operations of the
system for which the Capital Addition is to be integrated and to the System as a whole during
the construction thereof and for at least five Years after the date the Capital Addition
becomes commercially operative, and (B) conclude that (1) the Capital Addition is necessary
and will substantially increase the capacity, or is needed to replace existing facilities, to meet
current and projected demands for the service or product to be provided thereby, and (2) the
estimated cost of providing the service or product from the Capital Addition will be
(/ky: 2715.015%or"6.ww - 4/16/96) 28
reasonable in comparison with projected costs for furnishing such service or product from
other reasonably available sources; and
(ii) a certificate of the Engineer of Record to the effect that, based on the Engineering
Report prepared for each Capital Addition, the projected Net Earnings for each of the five
years subsequent to the date the Capital Addition becomes commercially operative (as
estimated in the Engineering Report) will be equal to at least the sum of (A) 1.25 times the
Average Annual Principal and Interest Requirements for Priority Bonds then outstanding or
incurred and all Priority Bonds estimated to be issued, if any, for all Capital Improvements
and for all Capital Additions then in progress or then being initiated, during the period from
the date the first series of obligations for the Capital Additions is to be delivered through the
fifth year subsequent to the date the Capital Addition is estimated to become commercially
operative, and (B) 1.10 times the Average Annual Principal and Interest Requirements for
Subordinate Lien Bonds (other than Priority Bonds) payable from the Pledged Revenues,
which are then outstanding or incurred and all Subordinate Lien Bonds estimated to be issued,
if any, for all Capital Improvements and for all Capital Additions then in progress or then
being initiated, during the period from the date the first series of obligations for the Capital
Addition is to be delivered through the fifth year subsequent to the date the Capital Addition
is estimated to become commercially operative.
(e) Subsequent Issues. Once a Capital Addition has been initiated by meeting the conditions
precedent specified in clauses (d)(i) and (d)(ii) above and the initial Priority Bonds or Subordinate
Lien Bonds delivered therefor, the City reserves the right to issue Priority Bonds and Subordinate
Lien Bonds, as the case may be, to finance the remaining costs of such Capital Addition in such
amounts as may be necessary to complete the acquisition and construction thereof and make the same
commercially operative without satisfaction of any condition precedent under clauses (d)(i) and (d)(ii)
or clause (b) of this Section but subject to satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
(i) the City makes a forecast (the "Forecast ") of the operations of the System
demonstrating the System's ability to pay all obligations, payable from the Pledged Revenues
of the System to be outstanding after the issuance of the Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien
Bonds then being issued for the period (the "Forecast Period ") of each ensuing year through
the fifth year subsequent to the latest estimated date such Capital Addition is expected to be
commercially operative, and
(ii) the Engineer of Record reviews such Forecast and executes a certificate to the
effect that such Forecast is reasonable, and based thereon (and such other factors deemed to
be relevant), the Pledged Revenues of the System will be adequate to pay all the obligations,
payable from the Pledged Revenues of the System to be outstanding after the issuance of the
Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien Bonds then being issued for the Forecast Period.
(f) The City reserves the right to issue refunding bonds to refund all or any part of the
outstanding Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien Bonds (pursuant to any law then available), upon
(/ky: 2715.015\m"6.ww - 4/16/96) 29
such terms and conditions as the City Council of the City may deem to be in the best interest of the
City and its inhabitants, and if less than all such outstanding Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien
Bonds are refunded, the conditions precedent prescribed (for the issuance of Priority Bonds or
Subordinate Lien Bonds) set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section shall be satisfied and the
Accountant's certificate or opinion required by clause (b) shall give effect to the issuance of the
proposed refunding bonds (and shall not give effect to the Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien Bonds
being refunded following their cancellation or provision being made for their payment). No
Accountant's certificate otherwise required by clause (b) will be required for refunding bonds, after
giving effect to such proposed refunding, if there is no increase in debt service for any Year before
or including any Year in which there will be debt service on Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien
Bonds outstanding both before and after such refunding and any such refunding bond does not have
a lien on Pledged Revenues superior to the obligation which it refunds.
(g) With reference to Priority Bonds and Subordinate Lien Bonds anticipated and estimated
to be issued or incurred, the Average Annual Principal and Interest Requirements therefor shall be
those reasonably estimated and computed by the City's Director of Finance (or other officer of the
City then having the primary responsibility for the financial affairs of the City). In the preparation of
the Engineering Report required in clause (d)(i) above, the Engineer of Record may rely on other
experts or professionals, including those in the employment of the City, provided such Engineering
Report discloses the extent of such reliance and concludes it is reasonable so to rely. In connection
with the issuance of Subordinate Lien Bonds or Priority Bonds for Capital Additions, the certificate
of the City's Director of Finance and Engineer of Record, together with the Engineering Report for
the initial issue and the Forecast for a subsequent issue, shall be conclusive evidence and the only
evidence required to show compliance with the provisions and requirements and this clause of this
Section.

single issue with Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien Bonds, as the case may be, for Capital
Improvements or for any lawful purpose provided the conditions precedent set forth in clauses (b)
through (f) are complied with as the same relate to the appropriate purpose.
(i) The City may, at any time and from time to time, for any lawful purpose, issue
Subordinated Obligations, the principal of and redemption premium, if any, and interest on which is
payable from and secured by a pledge of and lien on the Pledged Revenues junior and subordinate to
the lien and pledge created hereby for the security of the Priority Bonds and Subordinate Lien Bonds,
the payments required to be made hereunder into the Debt Service Fund, the Reserve Fund and the
retained amount of Operating Expenses in accordance with Section 18(c); provided, however, that
any such pledge and lien securing the Subordinated Obligations shall be, and shall be expressed to be,
subordinate in all respects to the pledge of and lien on the Pledged Revenues as security for the
Priority Bonds and Subordinate Lien Bonds.

Bonds are outstanding, an audit will be made of the books and accounts relating to the System and
the Pledged Revenues by the Accountant. As soon as practicable after the close of each such year,
and when said audit has been completed and made available to the City, a copy of such audit for the
preceding year shall be mailed to the Municipal Advisory Council of Texas and to any holder of 5%
or more in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Priority Bonds and Subordinate Lien

addition to the consent of the registered owners, when required, for the execution and delivery of any
amendatory ordinance.
(d) That upon the passage of any amendatory ordinance pursuant to the provisions of this
Section, this Ordinance shall be deemed to be amended in accordance with such amendatory
ordinance, and the respective rights, duties and obligations under this Ordinance of the City and all
the registered owners of then outstanding Priority Bonds and Subordinate Lien Bonds and all future
Subordinate Lien Bonds and Priority Bonds shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced
hereunder, subject in all respects to such amendments.
(e) That any consent given by the registered owner of a Priority Bond or Subordinate Lien
Bond pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall be irrevocable for a period of six months from
the date of the first publication of the notice provided for in this Section, and shall be conclusive and
binding upon all future registered owners of the same Priority Bond or Subordinate Lien Bond during
such period. Such consent may be revoked at any time after six months from the date of the first
publication of such notice by the registered owner who gave such consent, or by a successor in title,
by filing notice thereof with the Paying Agent/Registrar and the City, but such revocation shall not
be effective if the registered owners of 51% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Priority Bonds and Subordinate Lien Bonds as in this Section defined have, prior to the attempted
revocation, consented to and approved the amendment.
(f) The foregoing provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the City by action of the City
Council may amend this Ordinance for any one or more of the following purposes:
(1) To add to the covenants and agreements of the City in this Ordinance contained,
other covenants and agreements thereafter to be observed, grant additional rights or remedies
to the registered owners of the Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien Bonds or to surrender,
restrict or limit any right or power herein reserved to or conferred upon the City;
(2) To make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or curing,
correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained in this Ordinance, or in regard
to clarifying matters or questions arising under this Ordinance, as are necessary or desirable
and not contrary to or inconsistent with this Ordinance and which shall not adversely affect
the interests of the registered owners of the Priority Bonds or Subordinate Lien Bonds then
outstanding;
(3) To modify any of the provisions of this Ordinance in any other respect whatever,
provided that (i) such modification shall be, and be expressed to be, effective only after all
Priority Bonds and Subordinate Lien Bonds outstanding at the date of the adoption of such
modification shall cease to be outstanding, and (ii) such modification shall be specifically
Qky: 271 5.01 S\ordin96.ww - 4/16/96) 36
referred to in the text of all Priority Bonds and Subordinate Lien Bonds issued after the date
of the adoption of such modification.
(g) Any provision of this Ordinance expressly recognizing or granting rights in or to AMBAC
Indemnity may not be amended in any manner which affects the rights of AMBAC Indemnity
hereunder without the prior written consent of AMBAC Indemnity.
Section 25. DAMAGED, MUTILATED, LOST, STOLEN, OR DESTROYED BONDS.
(a) That in the event any outstanding Bond is damaged, mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the
Paying Agent/Registrar shall cause to be printed, executed, and delivered, a new bond of the same
principal amount, maturity, and interest rate, as the damaged, mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed
Bond, in replacement for such Bond in the manner hereinafter provided.
(b) Application for replacement of damaged, mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed Bonds shall
be made to the Paying Agent/Registrar. In every case of loss, theft, or destruction of a Bond, the
applicant for a replacement bond shall furnish to the City and to the Paying Agent/Registrar such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from any loss or
damage with respect thereto. Also, in every case of loss, theft, or destruction of a Bond, the
applicant shall furnish to the City and to the Paying Agent/Registrar evidence to their satisfaction of
the loss, theft, or destruction of such Bond, as the case may be. In every case of damage or
mutilation of a Bond, the applicant shall surrender to the Paying Agent/Registrar for cancellation the
Bond so damaged or mutilated.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, in the event any such Bond shall
have matured, and no default has occurred which is then continuing in the payment of the principal
of, redemption premium, if any, or interest on the Bond, the City may authorize the payment of the
same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a damaged or mutilated Bond) instead of
issuing a replacement Bond, provided security or indemnity is furnished as above provided in this
Section.
(d) Prior to the issuance of any replacement bond, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall charge
the owner of such Bond with all legal, printing, and other expenses in connection therewith. Every
replacement bond issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section by virtue of the fact that any Bond
is lost, stolen, or destroyed shall constitute a contractual obligation of the City whether or not the
lost, stolen, or destroyed Bond shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all the benefits of this Ordinance equally and proportionately with any and all other Bonds
duly issued under this Ordinance.
(e) In accordance with Section 6 of Vernon's Ann. Tex. Civ. St. Art. 717k -6, this Section of
this Ordinance shall constitute authority for the issuance of any such replacement bond without
necessity of further action by the governing body of the City or any other body or person, and the
duty of the replacement of such bonds is hereby authorized and imposed upon the Paying
Agent/Registrar, and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall authenticate and deliver such bonds in the form
(/ky: 2715.0151or"6.ww - 4/16/96) 37
and manner and with the effect, as provided in Section 5(d) of this Ordinance for Bonds issued in
exchange for other Bonds.
Section 26. COVENANTS REGARDING TAX EXEMPTION OF INTEREST ON THE
BONDS. The City covenants to take any action necessary to assure, or refrain from any action which
would adversely affect, the treatment of the Bonds as obligations described in section 103 of the
Code, the interest on which is not includable in the "gross income" of the holder for purposes of
federal income taxation. In furtherance thereof, the City covenants as follows:
(a) to take any action to assure that no more than 10 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds
or the projects financed therewith (less amounts deposited to a reserve fund, if any) are used for any
"private business use," as defined in section 141(b)(6) of the Code or, if more than 10 percent of the
proceeds or the projects financed therewith are so used, such amounts, whether or not received by
the City, with respect to such private business use, do not, under the terms of this Ordinance or any
underlying arrangement, directly or indirectly, secure or provide for the payment of more than 10
percent of the debt service on the Bonds, in contravention of section 141(b)(2) of the Code;
(b) to take any action to assure that in the event that the "private business use" described in
subsection (a) hereof exceeds 5 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or the proceeds financed
therewith (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) then the amount in excess of 5 percent
is used for a "private business use" which is "related" and not "disproportionate," within the meaning
of section 141(b)(3) of the Code, to the governmental use;
(c) to take any action to assure that no amount which is greater than the lesser of $5,000,000,
or 5 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) is
directly or indirectly used to finance loans to persons, other than state or local governmental units,
in contravention of section 141(c) of the Code;
(d) to refrain from taking any action which would otherwise result in the Bonds being treated
as "private activity bonds" within the meaning of section 141(b) of the Code;
(e) to refrain from taking any action that would result in the Bonds being "federally
guaranteed" within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code;
(f) to refrain from using any portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, directly or indirectly, to
acquire or to replace funds which were used, directly or indirectly, to acquire investment property
(as defined in section 148(b)(2) of the Code) which produces a materially higher yield over the term
of the Bonds, other than investment property acquired with --
(1) proceeds of the Bonds invested for a reasonable temporary period of 3 years or
less or, in the case of a refunding bond, for a period of 30 days or less until such proceeds are
needed for the purpose for which the bonds are issued,
(Ay: 271 5.01 Sbrdin96.vm - 4116196) 38
(2) amounts invested in a bona fide debt service fund, within the meaning of
section 1.148 -1(b) of the Treasury Regulations, and
(3) amounts deposited in any reasonably required reserve or replacement fund to the
extent such amounts do not exceed 10 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds;
(g) to otherwise restrict the use of the proceeds of the Bonds or amounts treated as proceeds
of the Bonds, as may be necessary, so that the Bonds do not otherwise contravene the requirements
of section 148 of the Code (relating to arbitrage) and, to the extent applicable, section 149(d) of the
Code (relating to advance refundings); and
(h) to pay to the United States of America at least once during each five -year period
(beginning on the date of delivery of the Bonds) an amount that is at least equal to 90 percent of the
"Excess Earnings," within the meaning of section 148(f) of the Code and to pay to the United States
of America, not later than 60 days after the Bonds have been paid in full, 100 percent of the amount
then required to be paid as a result of Excess Earnings under section 148(f) of the Code.
For purposes of the foregoing (a) and (b), the City understands that the term "proceeds" includes
"disposition proceeds" as defined in the Treasury Regulations and, in the case of refunding bonds,
transferred proceeds (if any) and proceeds of the refunded bonds expended prior to the date of
issuance of the Bonds. It is the understanding of the City that the covenants contained herein are
intended to assure compliance with the Code and any regulations or rulings promulgated by the U.S.
Department of the Treasury pursuant thereto. In the event that regulations or rulings are hereafter
promulgated which modify or expand provisions of the Code, as applicable to the Bonds, the City will
not be required to comply with any covenant contained herein to the extent that such failure to
comply, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel, will not adversely affect the exemption
from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds under section 103 of the Code. In the event
that regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated which impose additional requirements which are
applicable to the Bonds, the City agrees to comply with the additional requirements to the extent
necessary, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel, to preserve the exemption from
federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds under section 103 of the Code. In furtherance of
such intention, the City hereby authorizes and directs the Superintendent to execute any documents,
certificates or reports required by the Code and to make such elections, on behalf of the City, which
may be permitted by the Code as are consistent with the purpose for the issuance of the Bonds.
In order to facilitate compliance with the above covenant (h), a "Rebate Fund" is hereby
established by the City for the sole benefit of the United States of America, and such fund shall not
be subject to the claim of any other person, including without limitation the bondholders. The Rebate
Fund is established for the additional purpose of compliance with section 148 of the Code.
Section 27. PAYMENT PROCEDURE PURSUANT TO MUNICIPAL BOND
GUARANTY INSURANCE POLICY. As long as the Municipal Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy
(/ky: 2715.015\ordin96.ww - 4116196) 39
shall be in full force and effect, the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar agree to comply with the
following provisions:
(a) If payment of principal or interest due on the Bonds has not been made to the Paying
Agent/Registrar or any owner of Bonds to whom such payment is due, the Paying Agent/Registrar
shall so notify AMBAC Indemnity by telephonic or telegraphic notice, subsequently confirmed in
writing, or written notice by registered or certified mail. Such notice shall specify the amount of the
anticipated deficiency, the Bonds to which such deficiency is applicable, and whether such Bonds will
be deficient as to principal or interest, or both. AMBAC Indemnity, on the later of the date due for
payment or within one business day after receipt of notice of nonpayment, will deposit sufficient
moneys with United States Trust Company of New York, as insurance Trustee for AMBAC
Indemnity or any successor insurance trustee (the "Insurance Trustee ").
(b) The Paying Agent/Registrar shall, after giving notice to AMBAC Indemnity as provided
in (a) above, make available to AMBAC Indemnity and, at AMBAC Indemnity's direction, to the
Insurance Trustee, the registration books of the City maintained by the Paying Agent/Registrar, and
all records relating to the Funds and Accounts maintained under this Ordinance.
(c) The Paying Agent/Registrar shall provide AMBAC Indemnity and the Insurance Trustee
with a list of registered owners of the Bonds entitled to receive principal or interest payments from
AMBAC Indemnity under the terms of the Municipal Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy, and shall
make arrangements with the Insurance Trustee to (i) mail checks or drafts to the registered owners
of Bonds entitled to receive full or partial interest payments from AMBAC Indemnity and (ii) pay
principal upon Bonds surrendered to the Insurance Trustee by the registered owners of Bonds entitled
to receive full or partial principal payments from AMBAC Indemnity.
(d) The Paying Agent/Registrar shall, at the time it provides notice to AMBAC Indemnity
pursuant to (a) above, notify registered owners of Bonds entitled to receive the payment of principal
or interest thereon from AMBAC Indemnity (i) as to the fact of such entitlement, (ii) that AMBAC
Indemnity will remit to them all or a part of the interest payments next coming due, (iii) that should
they be entitled to receive full payment of principal from AMBAC Indemnity, they must present and
surrender their Bonds together with any appropriate instrument of assignment for payment to the
Insurance Trustee, and not the Paying Agent/Registrar, and (vi) that should they be entitled to receive
partial payment of principal from AMBAC Indemnity, they must present and surrender their Bonds
for payment thereon first to the Paying Agent/Registrar, who shall note on such Bonds the portion
of the principal paid by the Paying Agent/Registrar, and then, along with an appropriate instrument
of assignment, to the Insurance Trustee, which will then pay the unpaid portion of principal. The
Insurance Trustee shall disburse to the registered owners of Bonds, through the Paying
Agent/Registrar, the payment due less any amount held by the Paying Agent/Registrar for payment
of principal of or interest on Bonds and legally available therefor.
(e) In the event that the Paying Agent/Registrar has notice that any payment of principal of
or interest on a Bond which has become due for payment and which is made to an owner of a Bond
(/ky: 2715.015\orc in96.ww - 4116196) 40
by or on behalf of the Board has been deemed a preferential transfer and theretofore recovered from
its registered owner pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code by a trustee in bankruptcy in
accordance with the final, nonappealable order of a court having competent jurisdiction, the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall at the time AMBAC Indemnity is notified pursuant to (a) above, notify all
registered owners that in the event that any registered owner's payment is so recovered, such
registered owner will be entitled to payment from AMBAC Indemnity to the extent of such recovery,
and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall furnish to AMBAC Indemnity its records evidencing the
payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds which have been made by the Paying
Agent/Registrar and subsequently recovered from registered owners and the dates on which such
payments were made.
(f) In addition to those rights granted AMBAC Indemnity under this Ordinance, AMBAC
Indemnity shall, upon remittance and transfer of Bonds or appropriate instruments of assignment,
become the owner thereof, and to evidence such ownership (i) in the case of claims for past due
interest, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall note AMBAC Indemnity's rights as owner on the
registration books of the Board maintained by the Paying Agent/Registrar upon receipt from AMBAC
Indemnity of proof of the payment of interest thereon to the registered owners of the Bonds and (ii)
in the case of claims for past due principal, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall note AMBAC
Indemnity's rights as owner on the registration books of the Board maintained by the Paying
Agent/Registrar upon surrender of the Bonds by the registered owners thereof together with proof
of the payment of principal thereof.
Section 28. NOTICES TO BE GIVEN TO AMBAC INDEMNITY. While the Municipal
Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy is in effect, the City shall furnish to AMBAC Indemnity: (a) as soon
as practicable after filing thereof, a copy of any audit and annual report of the City; (b) a copy of any
notice to be given to the registered owners of the Bonds and any certificate rendered pursuant to this
Ordinance relating to the security for the Bonds; and (c) such additional information it may reasonably
request.
The City will permit AMBAC Indemnity to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the
City or any information AMBAC Indemnity may reasonably request regarding the security for the
Bonds with appropriate officers of the City. The City will permit AMBAC Indemnity to have access
to and to make copies of all books and records relating to the Bonds at any reasonable time.
AMBAC Indemnity shall have the right to direct an accounting at the City's expense, and the
City's failure to comply with such direction within 30 days after receipt of written notice of the
direction from AM 3AC Indemnity shall be deemed a default hereunder; provided, however, that if
compliance cannot occur with such period, then such period will be extended so long as compliance
is begun within such period and diligently pursued, but only if such extension would not materially
adversely affect the interests of any owner of the Bonds.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall
immediately notify AMBAC Indemnity if at any time there is insufficient money to make any
(Ay: 2715.015\ordin96.ww - 4/16/96) 41
payments of principal and/or interest as required and immediately upon the occurrence of an event
of default hereunder.

BENEFICIAL OWNER OF ANY BOND OR ANY OTHER PERSON, IN CONTRACT OR TORT,
FOR DAMAGES RESULTING IN WHOLE OR IN PART FROM ANY BREACH BY THE CITY,

SPECIFIED IN THIS ARTICLE, BUT EVERY RIGHT AND REMEDY OF ANY SUCH
(/ky: 2715.015\ordin96.ww - 4/16/96) 44
PERSON, IN CONTRACT OR TORT, FOR OR ON ACCOUNT OF ANY SUCH BREACH

changed circumstances that arise from a change in legal requirements, a change in law, or a change

interpretations of the Rule since such offering as well as such changed circumstances and (2) either

would not prevent an underwriter from lawfully purchasing or selling Bonds in the primary offering
of the Bonds.

time it is given to the NRMSIR or SID.
