same effect as if each of the Bonds had been signed manually and in person by each of those
officers, and such facsimile seal on the Bonds shall have the same effect as if the official seal of
the City had been manually impressed upon each of the Bonds.
(b) In the event that any officer of the City whose manual or facsimile signature
appears on the Bonds ceases to be such officer before the authentication of such Bonds or before
the delivery thereof, such manual or facsimile signature nevertheless shall be valid and sufficient
for all purposes as if such officer had remained in such office.
(c) Except as provided below, no Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or
be entitled to any security or benefit of this Ordinance unless and until there appears thereon the
Certificate of Paying Agent/Registrar substantially in the form provided herein, duly

at the Closing Date shall have attached thereto the Comptroller's Registration Certificate
substantially in the form provided herein, manually executed by the Comptroller of Public
Accounts of the State of Texas, or by his duly authorized agent, which Certificate shall be
evidence that the Bond has been duly approved by the Attorney General of the State of Texas
and that it is a valid and binding obligation of the City, and has been registered by the
Comptroller of Public Accounts of the State of Texas.
(d) On the Closing Date, one initial Bond representing the entire principal amount of

agreement between the Paying Agent/Registrar and DTC, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall hold
the definitive Bonds in safekeeping for DTC.

whose name any Bond is registered as the absolute owner of such Bond for the purpose of
making and receiving payment as provided herein (except interest shall be paid to the person in
whose name such Bond is registered on the Record Date), and for all other purposes, whether or
not such Bond is overdue, and neither the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be bound by
any notice or knowledge to the contrary.
9

L discharge the liability of the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar upon such Bond to the extent
of the sums paid.

such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall provide for the

(b) The ownership of a Bond may be transferred only upon the presentation and
surrender of the Bond at the Designated Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar
with such endorsement or other evidence of transfer as is acceptable to the Paying
Agent/Registrar. No transfer of any Bond shall be effective until entered in the Register.
(c) The Bonds shall be exchangeable upon the presentation and surrender thereof at
the Designated Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar for a Bond or Bonds of
the same maturity and interest rate and in any denomination or denominations of any integral
multiple of$5,000 and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of
the Bonds presented for exchange. The Paying Agent/Registrar is hereby authorized to
authenticate and deliver Bonds exchanged for other Bonds in accordance with this Section.
L (d) Each exchange Bond delivered by the Paying Agent/ Registrar in accordance with
this Section shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the City and shall be entitled to
the benefits and security of this Ordinance to the same extent as the Bond or Bonds in lieu of
which such exchange Bond is delivered.
(e) No service charge shall be made to the Owner for the initial registration,
subsequent transfer, or exchange for any different denomination of any of the Bonds. The Paying
Agent/Registrar, however, may require the Owner to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that is authorized to be imposed in connection with the registration,
transfer or exchange of a Bond.
(f) Neither the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be required to issue,
transfer, or exchange any Bond called for redemption, in whole or in part, where such

exchange date; provided, however, such limitation shall not be applicable to an exchange by the
Owner of the uncalled principal balance of a Bond.

Ordinance, and all Bonds in lieu of which exchange Bonds or replacement Bonds are

income for federal income tax purposes pursuant to sections 103 and 141 through 150, inclusive,
of the Code. The City covenants and agrees not to take any action, or omit to take any action
within its control, that if taken or omitted, respectively, would (i) cause the interest on the
Certificates to be includable in gross income, as defined in section 61 of the Code, for federal
income tax purposes or (ii) result in the violation of or failure to satisfy any applicable provision
of Section 103 and 141 through 150, inclusive, of the Code. In particular, the City covenants and
agrees to comply with each requirement of this Section 9.03; provided, however, that the City
will not be required to comply with any particular requirement of this Section 9.03 if the City has
received an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel ("Counsel's Opinion") that (i) such
noncompliance will not adversely affect the excludability of interest on the Certificates from
gross income for federal income tax purposes or (ii) compliance with some other requirement
specified in such Counsel's Opinion will satisfy the applicable requirements of the Code, in
which case compliance with such other requirement will constitute compliance with the
corresponding requirement specified in this Section 9.03.
Section 9.4. No Private Use or Payment and No Private Loan Financing_
The City covenants and agrees that it will make such use of the proceeds of the Certificates,
including interest or other investment income derived from Certificate proceeds, regulate the use
of property financed, directly or indirectly, with such proceeds, and take such other and further
action as may be required so that the Certificates will not be "private activity bonds" within the
28
#5937995.2
meaning of section 141 of the Code. Moreover, the City will certify, through an authorized
officer, employee or agent, based upon all facts and estimates known or reasonably expected to
be in existence on the date the Certificates are delivered, that the proceeds of the Certificates will
not be used in a manner that would cause the Certificates to be "private activity bonds" within
the meaning of section 141 of the Code.
Section 9.5. No Federal Guarantee.
The City covenants and agrees not to take any action, or knowingly omit to take any action
within its control, that if taken or omitted, respectively, would cause the Certificates to be

section 149(b)(3) of the Code.
Section 9.6. No Hedge Certificates.

required so that the Certificates will not be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of section
148(a) of the Code. Moreover, the City will certify, through an authorized officer, employee or
agent, based upon all facts and estimates known or reasonably expected to be in existence on the
date the Certificates are delivered, that the proceeds of the Certificates will not be used in a
manner that would cause the Certificates to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of section
148(a) of the Code.
Section 9.8. Arbitrage Rebate.
If the City does not qualify for an exception to the requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code
relating to the required rebate to the United States, the City will take all necessary steps to
comply with the requirement that certain amounts earned by the City on the investment of the
"gross proceeds" of the Certificates (within the meaning of section 148(f)(6)(B) of the Code) be
rebated to the federal government. Specifically, the City will (i) maintain records regarding the
investment of the gross proceeds of the Certificates as may be required to calculate the amount
earned on the investment of the gross proceeds of the Certificates separately from records of
amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts of the City allocable to other bond issue of the City
or moneys that do not represent gross proceeds of any bonds of the City, (ii) determine at such
times as are required by applicable Regulations, the amount earned from the investment of the
gross proceeds of the Certificates which is required to be rebated to the federal government, and
(iii) pay, not less often than every fifth anniversary date of the delivery of the Certificates, or on
such other dates as may be permitted under applicable Regulations, all amounts required to be
rebated to the federal government. Further, the City will not indirectly pay any amount
29
459379952
I
otherwise payable to the federal government pursuant to the foregoing requirements to any
L person other than the federal government by entering into any investment arrangement with
respect to the gross proceeds of the Certificates that might result in a reduction in the amount
required to be paid to the federal government because such arrangement results in a smaller
profit or a larger loss than would have resulted if the arrangement had been at arm's length and
had the yield on the issue not been relevant to either party.
Section 9.9. Information Reporting.
The City covenants and agrees to file or cause to be filed with the Secretary of the Treasury,
not later than the 15th day of the second calendar month after the close of the calendar quarter in
which the Certificates are issued, an information statement concerning the Certificates, all under
and in accordance with section 149(e) of the Code.
Section 9.10. Record Retention.
The City will retain all pertinent and material records relating to the use and expenditure of the
proceeds of the Certificates until three years after the last Certificate is redeemed or paid at
maturity, or such shorter period as authorized by subsequent guidance issued by the Department
of Treasury, if applicable. All records will be kept in a manner that ensures their complete
access throughout the retention period. For this purpose, it is acceptable that such records are
kept either as hardcopy books and records or in an electronic storage and retrieval system,
provided that such electronic system includes reasonable controls and quality assurance
programs that assure the ability of the City to retrieve and reproduce such books and records in
L the event of an examination of the Certificates by the Internal Revenue Service.
Section 9.11. Registration.
The Certificates will be issued in registered form.
Section 9.12. Deliberate Actions.
The City will not take a deliberate action (as defined in section 1.141-2(d)(3) of the
Regulations) that causes the Certificates to fail to meet any requirement of section 141 of the
Code after the issue date of the Certificates unless an appropriate remedial action is permitted by
section 1.141-12 of the Regulations, the City takes such action, and an opinion of Bond Counsel
is obtained that such remedial action cures any failure to meet the requirements of section 141 of
the Code.
Section 9.13. Continuing Obligation.
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the City's obligations under the covenants and
provisions of this Section 9.03 will survive the defeasance and discharge of the Certificates for as
long as such matters are relevant to the excludability of interest on the Certificates from gross
income for federal income tax purposes.
