the Contractual Obligation is registered on the Record Date or on the Special Record Date, as
applicable), and for all other purposes, whether or not such Contractual Obligation is overdue,
and neither the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be bound by any notice or knowledge to
the contrary.
(b) All payments made to the person deemed to be the Owner of any Contractual
Obligation in accordance with this Section shall be valid and effectual and shall discharge the
liability of the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar upon such Contractual Obligation to the

reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall provide for the
registration and transfer of Contractual Obligations in accordance with this Ordinance.
(b) Registration of any Contractual Obligation may be transferred in the Register only
upon the presentation and surrender thereof at the Designated Payment/Transfer Office for

in form and with guarantee of signatures satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar, evidencing
assignment of the Contractual Obligations, or any portion thereof in any integral multiple of
$5,000 for any one maturity, to the assignee or assignees thereof, and the right of such assignee
or assignees thereof to have the Contractual Obligation or any portion thereof registered in the
name of such assignee or assignees. No transfer of any Contractual Obligation shall be effective

portion thereof, a new Contractual Obligation or Contractual Obligations will be issued by the
Paying Agent/Registrar in exchange for such transferred and assigned Contractual Obligation.

Contractual Obligations within not more than three (3) Business Days after receipt of the

authorized attorneys or representatives, with guarantees of signatures satisfactory to the Paying
Agent/Registrar, for a Contractual Obligation or Contractual Obligations of the same maturity

(d) Each Contractual Obligation issued in exchange for any Contractual Obligation or
portion thereof assigned or transferred shall have the same principal maturity date and shall bear
interest at the same rate as the Contractual Obligation for which it is being exchanged. Each
substitute Contractual Obligation shall bear a letter and/or number to distinguish it from each
other Contractual Obligation. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall exchange the Contractual
Obligations as provided herein, and each substitute Contractual Obligation delivered in

the Contractual Obligations shall be excludable from gross income for purposes of federal
income taxation pursuant to sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code "), and the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder (the
"Regulations "). 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 interest on the
Contractual Obligations to be includable in gross income, as defined in section 61 of the Code, of
the holders thereof for purposes of federal income taxation. In particular, the City covenants and
agrees to comply with each requirement of this Section 9.03; provided, however, that the City
shall not be required to comply with any particular requirement of this Section 9.03 if the City
has received an opinion of nationally recognized Contractual Obligation counsel ( "Counsel's
Opinion ") that such noncompliance will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for
federal income tax purposes of interest on the Contractual Obligations or if the City has received
a Counsel's Opinion to the effect that compliance with some other requirement set forth in this
Section 9.03 will satisfy the applicable requirements of the Code, in which case compliance with
such other requirement specified in such Counsel's Opinion shall constitute compliance with the
corresponding requirement specified in this Section 9.03.
(b) No Private Use or Payment and No Private Loan Financing. The City shall
certify, through an authorized officer, employee or agent that based upon all facts and estimates
known or reasonably expected to be in existence on the date the Contractual Obligations are
delivered, that the proceeds of the Contractual Obligations will not be used in a manner that
would cause the Contractual Obligations to be "private activity Contractual Obligations" within
the meaning of section 141 of the Code and the Regulations. The City covenants and agrees that
it will make such use of the proceeds of the Contractual Obligations including interest or other
investment income derived from Contractual Obligation 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 Contractual Obligations will not be "private activity Contractual
Obligations" within the meaning of section 141 of the Code and the Regulations.
(c) No Federal Guaranty. The City covenants and agrees that it has not and will not
take any action, or knowingly omit to take any action within its control, that, if taken or omitted,
respectively, would cause the Contractual Obligations to be "federally guaranteed" within the
25
#4202522.1
meaning of section 19(b) of the Code and the Regulations, except as permitted by section
149(b)(3) of the Code and the Regulations.
(d) Contractual Obligations are not Hedge Contractual Obligations. The City
covenants and agrees not to take any action, or knowingly omit to take any action, and has not
knowingly omitted and will not knowingly omit to take any action, within its control, that, if
taken or omitted, respectively, would cause the Contractual Obligations to be "hedge Contractual
Obligations" within the meaning of section 149(g) of the Code and the Regulations.
(e) No Arbitrate. The City shall certify, through an authorized officer, employee or
agent that based upon all facts and estimates known or reasonably expected to be in existence on
the date the Contractual Obligations are delivered, the City will reasonably expect that the
proceeds of the Contractual Obligations will not be used in a manner that would cause the
Contractual Obligations to be "arbitrage Contractual Obligations" within the meaning of section
148(a) of the Code and the Regulations. Moreover, the City covenants and agrees that it will
make such use of the proceeds of the Contractual Obligations including interest or other
investment income derived from Contractual Obligation proceeds, regulate investments of
proceeds of the Contractual Obligations, and take such other and further action as may be
required so that the Contractual Obligations will not be "arbitrage Contractual Obligations"
within the meaning of section 148(a) of the Code and the Regulations.
(f) Arbitrage Rebate. If the City does not qualify for an exception to the
requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code, 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 Contractual Obligations (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 Contractual Obligations as may be required
to calculate the amount earned on the investment of the gross proceeds of the Contractual
Obligations separately from records of amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts of the City
allocable to other Contractual Obligation issues of the City or moneys which do not represent
gross proceeds of any Contractual Obligations of the City, (ii) calculate at such times as are
required by the Regulations, the amount earned from the investment of the gross proceeds of the
Contractual Obligations 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 Contractual Obligations or
on such other dates as may be permitted under the Regulations, all amounts required to be
rebated to the federal government. Further, the City will not indirectly pay any amount
otherwise payable to the federal government pursuant to the foregoing requirements to any
person other than the federal government by entering into any investment arrangement with
respect to the gross proceeds of the Contractual Obligations 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.
(g) Information Reyorting. 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 Contractual Obligations are issued, an information
26

statement concerning the Contractual Obligations, all under and in accordance with section
149(e) of the Code and the Regulations.
(h) Record Retention. The City will retain all pertinent and material records relating
to the use and expenditure of the proceeds of the Contractual Obligations until six years after the
last Contractual Obligation is redeemed, 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 the event of an examination of the Contractual Obligations by the Internal
Revenue Service.
(i) Qualified Tax - Exempt Obligations. The City hereby designates the Contractual
Obligations as "qualified tax- exempt obligations" for purposes of section 265(b) of the Code. In
connection therewith, the City represents (a) that the aggregate amount of tax - exempt obligations
issued by the City during calendar year 2012, including the Contractual Obligations, that have
been designated as "qualified tax - exempt obligations" under section 265(b)(3) of the Code does
not exceed $10,000,000, and (b) that the reasonably anticipated amount of tax - exempt
obligations that will be issued by the City during calendar year 2012, including the Contractual
Obligations, will not exceed $10,000,000. For purposes of this Section 9.11, the term "tax -
exempt obligation" does not include "private activity Contractual Obligations" within the
meaning of section 141 of the Code, other than "qualified 501(c)(3) Contractual Obligations"
within the meaning of section 145 of the Code. In addition, for purposes of this Section 9.11, the
City includes all entities that are aggregated with the City under section 265(b) of the Code.
6) Registration. The Contractual Obligations will be issued in registered form.
(k) Continuing Obli ag tion. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance,
the City's obligations under the covenants and provisions of this Section 9.03 shall survive the
defeasance and discharge of the Contractual Obligations.
