Certificate substantially in the form provided herein, manually executed by the Comptroller of

purposes (except interest will be paid to the person in whose name such bond is registered on 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 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 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

exchange. The Paying Agent/Registrar is hereby authorized to authenticate and deliver Bonds
exchanged for other Bonds in accordance with this Section.
(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 a 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, within 45 calendar
days prior to the date fixed for redemption; 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

preparation of definitive Bonds, the proper officers of the City may execute and, upon the City's
request, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, one or more temporary Bonds
that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any
denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Bonds in lieu of which they are
delivered, without coupons, and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and
other variations as the officers of the City executing such temporary Bonds may determine, as
evidenced by their signing of such temporary Bonds.
(b) Until exchanged for Bonds in definitive form, such Bonds in temporary form shall
be entitled to the benefit and security of this Ordinance.

Agent/Registrar shall cancel the Bonds in temporary form and shall authenticate and deliver in
exchange therefor Bonds of the same maturity and series, in definitive form, in the authorized
denomination, and in the same aggregate principal amount, as the Bonds in temporary form
surrendered. Such exchange shall be made without the making of any charge therefor to any
Owner.
Section 3.09. Replacement Bonds.
(a) Upon the presentation and surrender to the Paying Agent/Registrar of a mutilated
Bond, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
replacement Bond of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously

a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that is authorized to be imposed
in connection therewith and any other expenses connected therewith.
(b) In the event that any Bond is lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken, the
Paying Agent/Registrar, pursuant to the applicable laws of the State of Texas and in the absence
of notice or knowledge that such Bond has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, shall
authenticate and deliver a replacement Bond of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding, provided that the Owner first:

ownership of and the circumstances of the loss, destruction or theft of such Bond;

Paying Agent/Registrar.

original Bond in lieu of which such replacement Bond was issued presents for payment such

transferring or exchanging Bonds shall designate, in accordance with the provisions of this
Ordinance.

be includable in gross income, as defined in section 61 of the Code, for purposes of federal
income taxation. In particular, the City covenants and agrees to comply with each requirement
of this Article IX; provided, however, that the City shall not be required to comply with any
particular requirement of this Article IX if the City has received an opinion of nationally
recognized bond 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 Bonds

requirement set forth in this Article IX will satisfy the applicable requirements of the Code and
the Regulations, in which case compliance with such other requirement specified in such
Counsel's Opinion shall constitute compliance with the corresponding requirement specified in
this Article IX.
Section 9.04. 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 Bonds are

the Bonds will not be used in a manner that would cause the Bonds to be "private activity bonds"

Moreover, the City covenants and agrees that it will make such use of the proceeds of the Bonds
and the Refunded Obligations, including interest or other investment income derived from Bond
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 bonds will not be "private
activity bonds" within the meaning of section 141 of the Code and the Regulations promulgated
thereunder.
-28-
US 412592v.1
Section 9.05. No Federal Guaranty.
The City covenants and agrees not to take any action, or knowingly omit to take any
action or knowingly omit to take any action within its control, that, if taken or omitted,

149(b) of the Code and the applicable Regulations thereunder, except as permitted by section
149(b)(3) of the Code and such Regulations.
Section 9.06. Bonds are not Hedge Bonds.

within the meaning of section 149(g) of the Code and the applicable Regulations thereunder.
Section 9.07. No-Arbitrage Covenant.
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 Bonds are
delivered, the City will reasonably expect that the proceeds of the Bonds will not be used in a
manner that would cause the Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds"within the meaning of section 148(a)
of the Code and the applicable Regulations thereunder. Moreover, the City covenants and agrees
that it will make such use of the proceeds of the Bonds including interest or other investment
income derived from Bond proceeds, regulate investments of proceeds of the Bonds, and take
such other and further action as may be required so that the Bonds will not be "arbitrage bonds"
within the meaning of section 148(a) of the Code and the applicable Regulations promulgated
thereunder.
Section 9.08. Arbitrage Rebate.

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 Bonds (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 Bonds as may be
required to calculate the amount earned on the investment of the gross proceeds of the Bonds
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 which do not represent gross proceeds of any bonds of
the City, (ii) calculate at such times as are required by applicable Regulations, the amount earned
from the investment of the gross proceeds of the Bonds 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 Bonds 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 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 Bonds that might result in a reduction in
the amount required to be paid to the federal government because such arrangement results in a
-29-
US 412592v.1
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 9.09. 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 Bonds are issued, an information statement concerning the Bonds, all under
and in accordance with section 149(e) of the Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder.
Section 9.10. Continuing Obligation.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance, the City's obligations under the
covenants and provisions of this Article IX shall survive the defeasance and discharge of the
Bonds.

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 2010, including the
Bonds, which have been designated as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" under section

amount of its tax-exempt obligations which will be issued by the City during calendar year 2010,
including the Bonds, will not exceed $30,000,000. For purposes of this Section 9.11, the term
"tax-exempt obligations" does not include "private activity bonds"within the meaning of section
141 of the Code, other than "qualified 501(c)(3) bonds" within the meaning of section 145 of the
Code. In addition, for purposes of this Section 9.11, the City includes all governmental units
which are aggregate with the City under section 265(b)of the Code.
