(b) If any officer of the City whose manual or facsimile signature shall appear on the Certificates shall cease to be such officer before the authentication of such Certificates or before the delivery of such Certificates, such manual or facsimile signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if such officer had remained in such office.

Such notice may state (i) that the redemption is conditioned upon the deposit of moneys and/or authorized securities, in an amount equal to the amount necessary to effect the redemption, with the Paying Agent/Registrar, or such other entity as may be authorized by law, no later than the redemption date or (ii) that the City retains the right to rescind such notice at any time prior to the scheduled redemption date if the City delivers a certificate of the City to the Paying Agent/Registrar instructing the Paying Agent /Registrar to rescind the redemption notice, and such notice of redemption shall be of no effect if such moneys and/or authorized securities are no so deposited or if the notice is rescinded. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall give prompt notice of any such rescission of a conditional notice of redemption to the affected owners. Any Certificates subject to conditional redemption where redemption has been rescinded shall remain Outstanding. Section 3.6: Manner of Payment, Characteristics, Execution and Authentication. The Paying Agent/Registrar is hereby appointed the agent for the Certificates. The Certificates shall be payable, shall have the characteristics and shall be executed, sealed, registered and authenticated, all as provided and in the manner indicated in the FORM OF CERTIFICATES set forth in Article IV of this Ordinance. If any officer of the City whose manual or facsimile signature shall appear on the Certificates shall cease to be such officer before the authentication of the Certificates or before the delivery of the Certificates, such manual or facsimile signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if such officer had remained in such office. The approving legal opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Houston, Texas, Certificate Counsel, may be printed on the back of the Certificates over the certification of the City Secretary, which may be executed in facsimile but errors or omissions in the printing of the opinion shall have no effect on the validity of the Certificates.

Section 3.8: Ownership. The City, the Paying Agent/Registrar and any other person may treat the person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the absolute owner of such Certificate for the purpose of making and receiving payment of the principal thereof and interest thereon and for all other purposes, whether or not such Certificate is overdue, and neither the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be bound by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.

All Certificates shall be exchangeable upon the presentation and surrender thereof at the principal corporate trust office of the Paying Agent/Registrar for a Certificate or Certificates, maturity and interest rate and in any authorized denomination, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the Certificate or Certificates presented for exchange. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall be and is hereby authorized to authenticate and deliver exchange Certificates in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Each Certificate delivered by the Paying Agent/Registrar in accordance with this Section shall be entitled to the benefits and security of this Ordinance to the same extent as the Certificate or Certificates in lieu of which such Certificate is delivered.

The Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, Director of Finance or Interim Director of Finance is hereby authorized and directed to executed the Purchase Contract on behalf of the City, and the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, City Secretary, City Manager, Director of Finance, Interim Director of Finance and other appropriate officials of the City are hereby authorized to do any and all things necessary or desirable to satisfy the conditions set out therein and to provide for the issuance and delivery of the Certificates. Section 7.2: Approval, Registration and Delivery. The Mayor or Mayor Pro Tem is hereby authorized to have control and custody of the Certificates and all necessary records and proceedings pertaining thereto pending their delivery, and the Mayor and other officers and employees of the City are hereby authorized and directed to make such certifications and to execute such instruments as may be necessary to accomplish the delivery of the Certificates and to assure the investigation, examination and approval thereof by the Attorney General and the registration of the initial Certificates by the Comptroller. Upon registration of the Certificates, 12 4134-2748-6757.1 the Comptroller (or the Comptroller's certificates clerk or an assistant certificates clerk lawfully designated in writing to act for the Comptroller) shall manually sign the Comptroller's Registration Certificates prescribed herein to be attached or affixed to each Certificates initially delivered and the seal of the Comptroller shall be impressed or printed or lithographed thereon. Section 7.3: Application of Proceeds of Certificates. Proceeds from the sale of the Certificates shall, promptly upon receipt by the City, be applied as follows: (1) Accrued interest, if any, shall be deposited into the Debt Service Fund created in Section 5.2 of this Ordinance; (2) Net premium in the amount of $ shall be applied to pay underwriters' discount and in the amount of $ shall be applied to pay expenses arising in connection with the issuance of the Certificates; (3) The remaining proceeds shall be applied, together with other funds of the City, to provide funds to pay contractual obligations to be incurred for the purposes set forth in Section 3.1 of this Ordinance. Section 7.4: Tax Exemption. The City intends that the interest on the Certificates shall be excludable from gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code") and all applicable temporary, proposed and final regulations (the "Regulations") and procedures promulgated thereunder and applicable to the Certificates. For this purpose, the City covenants that it will monitor and control the receipt, investment, expenditure and use of all gross proceeds of the Certificates (including all property, the acquisition, construction or improvement of which is to be financed directly or indirectly with the proceeds of the Certificates) and take or omit to take such other and further actions as may be required by Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code and the Regulations to cause the interest on the Certificates to be and remain excludable from the gross income, as defined in Section 61 of the Code, of the owners of the Certificates for federal income tax purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the City shall comply with each of the following covenants: (a) The City shall not use, permit the use of or omit to use Gross Proceeds or any other amounts (or any property the acquisition, construction or improvement of which is to be financed directly or indirectly with Gross Proceeds) in a manner which, if made or omitted, respectively, would cause the interest on any Certificate to become includable in the gross income, as defined in Section 61 of the Code, of the owner thereof for federal income tax purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the City shall have received a written opinion of counsel nationally recognized in the field of municipal bond law to the effect that failure to comply with such covenant will not adversely affect the exemption from federal income tax of the interest on any Certificate, the City shall comply with each of the specific covenants in this Section. (b) Except as permitted by Section 141 of the Code and the regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall, at all times prior to the last stated maturity of the Certificates, (1) exclusively own, operate, and possess all property the acquisition, construction, or improvement of which is to be financed directly or indirectly with Gross Proceeds of such series of the Certificates and not use or permit the use of such Gross 13 4134-2748-6757.1 Proceeds or any property acquired, constructed, or improved with such Gross Proceeds in any activity carried on by any person or entity other than a state or local government, unless such use is solely as a member of the general public, or (2) not directly or indirectly impose or accept any charge or other payment for use of Gross Proceeds of such series of the Certificates or any property the acquisition, construction or improvement of which is to be financed directly or indirectly with such Gross Proceeds. (c) Except to the extent permitted by Section 141 of the Code and the regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not use Gross Proceeds of the Certificates to make or finance loans to any person or entity other than a state or local government. For purposes of the foregoing covenant, Gross Proceeds are considered to be "loaned" to a person or entity if (1) property acquired, constructed or improved with Gross Proceeds is sold or leased to such person or entity in a transaction which creates a debt for federal income tax purposes, (2) capacity in or service from such property is committed to such person or entity under a take - or -pay, output, or similar contract or arrangement, or (3) indirect benefits, or burdens and benefits of ownership, of such Gross Proceeds or such property are otherwise transferred in a transaction which is the economic equivalent of a loan. (d) Except to the extent permitted by Section 148 of the Code and the regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not, at any time prior to the earlier of the final stated maturity or final payment of the Refunded Obligations, directly or indirectly invest Gross Proceeds of such Certificates in any Investment (or use such Gross Proceeds to replace money so invested), if as a result of such investment the Yield of all Investments allocated to such Gross Proceeds whether then held or previously disposed of, exceeds the Yield on the Refunded Obligations. (e) Based on all of the facts and estimates now known or reasonably expected to be in existence on the date the Certificates are delivered, the City reasonably expects that the proceeds of the Certificates (to the extent any of such proceeds remain unexpended) will not be used in a manner that would cause the Certificates or any portion thereof to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code. (f) At all times while the Certificates are outstanding, the City will identify and properly account for all amounts constituting gross proceeds of the Certificates in accordance with the Regulations. The City will monitor the yield on the investments of the proceeds of the Certificates and, to the extent required by the Code and the Regulations, will restrict the yield on such investments to a yield which is not materially higher than the yield on the Certificates. To the extent necessary to prevent the Certificates from constituting "arbitrage bonds," the City will make such payments as are necessary to cause the yield on all yield restricted nonpurpose investments allocable to the Certificates to be less than the yield that is materially higher than the yield on the Certificates. (g) The City will not take any action or knowingly omit to take any action, if taken or omitted, would cause the Certificates to be treated as "federally guaranteed" obligations for purposes of Section 149(b) of the Code. (h) The City represents that not more than fifty percent (50%) of the proceeds of any new money portion of the Certificates was invested in nonpurpose investments (as defined in Section 148(f)(b)(A) of the Code) having a substantially guaranteed yield for four years or more 14 4134-2748-6757.1 within the meaning of Section 149(g)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code, and the City reasonably expected at the time each issue of the Refunded Certificates was issued that at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the spendable proceeds of the Certificates or the Refunded Certificates would be used to carry out the governmental purpose of such Certificates within the corresponding three-year period beginning on the respective dates of the Certificates or the Refunded Certificates. (i) 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, if any, be rebated to the federal government. Specifically, the City will (i) maintain records regarding the receipt, investment and expenditure of the gross proceeds of the Certificates as may be required to calculate such excess arbitrage profits separately from records of amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts of the City allocable to other obligations of the City or moneys which do not represent gross proceeds of any obligations of the City and retain such records for at least six years after the day on which the last outstanding Certificate is discharged, (ii) account for all gross proceeds under a reasonable, consistently applied method of accounting, not employed as an artifice or device to avoid, in whole or in part, the requirements of Section 148 of the Code, including any specified method of accounting required by applicable Regulations to be used for all or a portion of the gross proceeds, (iii) calculate, at such times as are required by applicable Regulations, the amount of excess arbitrage profits, if any, earned from the investment of the gross proceeds of the Certificates and (iv) timely pay, as required by applicable Regulations, all amounts required to be rebated to the federal government. In addition, the City will exercise reasonable diligence to assure that no errors are made in the calculations required by the preceding sentence and, if such an error is made, to discover and promptly correct such error within a reasonable amount of time thereafter, including payment to the federal government of any delinquent amounts owed to it, including interest thereon and penalty. Q) 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 Certificates that might result in a reduction in the amount required to be paid to the federal government because such arrangement results in smaller profit or a larger loss than would have resulted if such arrangement had been at arm's length and had the yield on the issue not been relevant to either party. (k) The City will timely file or cause to be filed with the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States the information required by Section 149(e) of the Code with respect to the Certificates on such form and in such place as the Secretary may prescribe. (1) The City will not issue or use the Certificates as part of an "abusive arbitrage device" (as defined in Section 1.148 10(a) of the Regulations). Without limiting the foregoing, the Certificates are not and will not be a part of a transaction or series of transactions that attempts to circumvent the provisions of Section 148 of the Code and the Regulations, by (i) enabling the City to exploit the difference between tax exempt and taxable interest rates to gain a material financial advantage, or (ii) increasing the burden on the market for tax-exempt obligations. (m) Proper officers of the City charged with the responsibility for issuing the Certificates are hereby directed to make, execute and deliver certifications as to facts, estimates or circumstances in existence as of the Issue Date and stating whether there are facts, estimates or circumstances that would materially change the City's expectations. On or after 15 4134-2748-6757.1 the Issue Date, the City will take such actions as are necessary and appropriate to assure the continuous accuracy of the representations contained in such certificates. (n) The covenants and representations made or required by this Section are for the benefit of the Certificate holders and any subsequent Certificate holder, and may be relied upon by the Certificate holder and any subsequent Certificate holder and bond counsel to the City. In complying with the foregoing covenants, the City may rely upon an unqualified opinion issued to the City by nationally recognized bond counsel that any action by the City or reliance upon any interpretation of the Code or Regulations contained in such opinion will not cause interest on the Certificates to be includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes under existing law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance, the City's representations and obligations under the covenants and provisions of this Section 7.4 shall survive the defeasance and discharge of the Certificates for as long as such matters are relevant to the exclusion of interest on the Certificates from the gross income of the owners for federal income tax purposes. Section 7.5: Related Matters. In order that the City shall satisfy in a timely manner all of its obligations under this Ordinance, the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, City Secretary, the Director of Finance, the Interim Director of Finance and all other appropriate officers, agents, representatives and employees of the City are hereby authorized and directed to take all other actions that are reasonably necessary to provide for the issuance and delivery of the Certificates, including, without limitation, executing and delivering on behalf of the City all certificates, consents, receipts, requests, notices, and other documents as may be reasonably necessary to satisfy the City's obligations under this Ordinance and to direct the transfer and application of funds of the City consistent with the provisions of this Ordinance ARTICLE VIII MISCELLANEOUS Section 8.1: Defeasance. The Certificates may be discharged, defeased, redeemed or refunded in any manner now or hereafter permitted by law. Section 8.2: Application of Chapter 1208, Government Code. Chapter 1208, Government Code, applies to the issuance of the Certificates and the pledge of the taxes granted by the City under Section 5.1 of this Ordinance, and such pledge is therefore valid, effective and perfected. If Texas law is amended at any time while the Certificates are outstanding and unpaid such that the pledge of the taxes granted by the City under Section 5.1 of this Ordinance is to be subject to the filing requirements of Chapter 9, Business & Commerce Code, then in order to preserve to the Registered Owners of the Certificates the perfection of the security interest in said pledge, the City agrees to take such measures as it determines are reasonable and necessary under Texas law to comply with the applicable provisions of Chapter 9, Business & Commerce Code and enable a filing to perfect the security interest in said pledge to occur. Section 8.3: Ordinance a Contract - Amendments. This Ordinance shall constitute a contract with the Registered Owners from time to time, be binding on the City, and shall not be amended or repealed by the City so long as any Certificate remains Outstanding except as 16 4134-2748-6757.1 permitted in this Section. The City may, without the consent of or notice to any Registered Owners, from time to time and at any time, amend this Ordinance in any manner not detrimental to the interests of the Registered Owners, including the curing of any ambiguity, inconsistency, or formal defect or omission herein. In addition, the City may, with the consent of Registered Owners who own in the aggregate 51% of the principal amount of the Certificates then Outstanding, amend, add to, or rescind any of the provisions of this Ordinance; provided that, without the consent of all Registered Owners of Outstanding Certificates, no such amendment, addition, or rescission shall (i) extend the time or times of payment of the principal of and interest on the Certificates, reduce the principal amount thereof, the redemption price, or the rate of interest thereon, or in any other way modify the terms of payment of the principal of or interest on the Certificates, (ii) give any preference to any Certificate over any other Certificate, or (iii) reduce the aggregate principal amount of Certificates required to be held by Registered Owners for consent to any such amendment, addition, or rescission. Section 8.4: Legal Holidays. In any case where the date interest accrues and becomes payable on the Certificates or principal of the Certificates matures or the date fixed for redemption of any Certificates or a Record Date shall be in the City a Saturday, Sunday, legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions are authorized by law to close, then payment of interest or principal need not be made on such date, or the Record Date shall not occur on such date, but payment may be made or the Record Date shall occur on the next succeeding day which is not in the City a Saturday, Sunday, legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions are authorized by law to close with the same force and effect as if (i) made on the date of maturity or the date fixed for redemption and no interest shall accrue for the period from the date of maturity or redemption to the date of actual payment or (ii) the Record Date had occurred on the fifteenth day of that calendar month. Section 8.5: No Recourse Against City Officials. No recourse shall be had for the payment of principal of or interest on any Certificates or for any claim based thereon or on this Ordinance against any official of the City or any person executing any Certificates. Section 8.6: Further Proceedings. The Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, City Secretary, Director of Finance, Interim Director of Finance and other appropriate officials of the City are hereby authorized and directed to do any and all things necessary and/or convenient to carry out the terms of this Ordinance. Section 8.7: Severability. If any Section, paragraph, clause or provision of this Ordinance shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the invalidity or unenforceability of such Section, paragraph, clause or provision shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of this Ordinance. Section 8.8: Power to Revise Form of Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance, the Mayor or Mayor Pro Tem is hereby authorized to make or approve such revisions, additions, deletions, and variations to this Ordinance and in the form of the documents attached hereto as exhibits as, in the judgment of the Mayor or Mayor Pro Tem, and in the opinion of Certificate Counsel to the City, may be necessary or convenient to carry out or assist in carrying out the purposes of this Ordinance, or as may be required for approval of the Certificates by the Attorney General of Texas; provided, however, that any changes to such documents resulting in substantive amendments to the terms and conditions of the Certificates or such documents shall be subject to the prior approval of the City Council. 17 4134-2748-6757.1 Section 8.9: Open Meeting. It is hereby found, determined and declared that a sufficient written notice of the date, hour, place and subject of the meeting of the City Council at which this Ordinance was adopted was posted at a place convenient and readily accessible at all times to the general public at City Hall for the time required by law preceding this meeting, as required by the Open Meetings Law, Chapter 551, Texas Government Code, and that this meeting has been open to the public as required by law at all times during which this Ordinance and the subject matter thereof has been discussed, considered and formally acted upon. The City Council further ratifies, approves and confirms such written notice and the contents and posting thereof. Section 8.10: Official Statement.
