such Bonds are to be transferred, authenticate, and deliver
such Bonds as provided in such instructions. The officers or
acting officers of the Governing Body are authorized to
execute and deliver on behalf of the Governing Body such
certificates and instruments as may be necessary to accomplish
or in furtherance of the delivery of the Bonds to and payment
therefor by the initial purchaser thereof.
All Bonds authenticated and delivered by the Paying
Agent hereunder shall be dated the date of their
authentication.
No Bond shall be entitled to any right or benefit
under this Order, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose,
unless there appears on such Bond either a certificate of
registration substantially in the form provided in Section
4.3, executed by the Comptroller of Public Accounts of the
State of Texas or his duly authorized agent by manual
12
• •
signature, or a certificate of authentication substantially in
the form provided in Section 4.4, executed by the Paying Agent
by manual signature and either such certificate upon any Bond
shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
Bond has been duly certified or authenticated and delivered.
SECTION 2.5: Registration, Transfer, and Exchange.
The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Place of Payment a
register (herein referred to as the "Bond Register ") in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as the Issuer or the
Paying Agent may prescribe, the Paying Agent shall provide for
the registration of the Bonds and of transfers of the Bonds as
herein provided.
Upon surrender for transfer of any Bond at the Place
of Payment, the Issuer shall execute and the Paying Agent
shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Bonds of the same
Stated Maturity, of any authorized denominations, and of a
like aggregate principal amount.
At the option of the Holder, Bonds may be exchanged
for other Bonds of the same Stated Maturity, of any authorized
denominations, and of like aggregate principal amount, upon
surrender of the Bonds to be exchanged at the Place of
Payment. Whenever any Bonds are so surrendered for exchange,
the Issuer shall execute and the Paying Agent shall
authenticate and deliver the Bonds which the Bondholder making
the exchange is entitled to receive.
All Bonds issued upon any transfer or exchange of
Bonds shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer evidencing
the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this
Order, as the Bonds surrendered upon such transfer or
exchange.
Every Bond presented or surrendered for transfer or
exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Paying Agent duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge shall be made to the Holder for
any registration, transfer, or exchange of Bonds, but the
Issuer or the Paying Agent may require payment by the
Bondholder requesting such transfer or exchange of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of
Bonds.
Neither the Issuer nor the Paying Agent shall be
required (1) to transfer or exchange any Bond during a period
13
• •
beginning at the opening or business 15 days before the day of
the first mailing of a notice of redemption of Bonds hereunder
and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing
or (2) thereafter to transfer or exchange in whole or in part
any Bond so selected for redemption.
SECTION 2.6: Interest Rights and Payments.
Interest on the bonds, which is punctually paid or duly
provided for on or within 10 days after any Interest Payment
Date, shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Bond (or
one or more Predecessor Bonds) is registered at the close of
business on the Record Date therefor.
Interest on the bonds which is payable on any
Interest Payment Date but is not paid or duly provided for by
10 days after (herein referred to as "Defaulted Interest ")
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the
relevant Record Date solely by virtue of having been such
Holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the
Persons in whose names such Bonds (or their respective
Predecessor Bonds) are registered at the close of business on
a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The
Issuer shall notify the Paying Agent in writing of the amount
of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Bond and the
date of the proposed payment and shall simultaneously deposit
with the Paying Agent an amount of money equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such
Defaulted Interest or make arrangements satisfactory to the
Paying Agent for such deposit prior to the date of the
proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in
trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
Defaulted Interest as in this Section provided. Thereupon,
the Paying Agent shall fix a Special Record Date for the
payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more
than 15 nor less than 10 days after the receipt of the
proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt
by the Paying Agent of the notice of the proposed payment.
The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer of such
Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the
Issuer, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be
mailed, first -class postage prepaid, to each Bondholder at the
address of such Bondholder as it appears in the Bond Register
not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date.
Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and
the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as
aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the
Persons in whose names the Bonds (or their respective
Predecessor Bonds) are registered on such Special Record Date.
14
• •
All payments of interest on the Bonds shall be paid
by check or draft mailed, first -class postage prepaid, by the
Paying Agent to the Person entitled to such payment at the
address of such Person as it appears in the Bond Register or
by such other customary banking arrangements to which such
Person and the Paying Agent may agree.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section,
each Bond delivered under this Order upon transfer or in lieu
of or in exchange for any other Bond shall carry all the
rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which
were carried by such other Bond, and each such Bond shall bear
interest from such date, that neither gain nor loss in
interest shall result from such transfer, exchange, or
substitution.
SECTION 2.7: Mutilated, Destroyed. Lost, and Stolen
Bonds. If (1) any mutilated Bond is surrendered to the Paying
Agent, or the Issuer and the Paying Agent received evidence to
their satisfaction of the destruction, loss, or theft of any
Bond, and (2) there is delivered to the Issuer and the Paying
Agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to
save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to
the Issuer and the Paying Agent that such Bond has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute
and upon its request the Paying Agent shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost, or stolen Bond, a new Bond of the same Stated
Maturity and of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding.
In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or
stolen Bond has become or is about to become due and payable,
the Issuer in its discretion may pay such Bond instead of
issuing a new Bond.
Upon the issuance of any new Bond under this
Section, the Issuer or the Paying Agent may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto
and any other expenses connected therewith.
Every new Bond issued pursuant to this Section in
lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bond shall
constitute an original additional contractual obligation of
the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost, or
stolen Bond shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and
shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Order equally
and ratably with all other Outstanding Bonds.
The provisions of this Section are exclusive and
shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and
15
• i
remedies with respect to the replacement and payment of
mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bonds.
SECTION 2.8: Ownership; Unclaimed Principal and
Interest. Subject to the further provisions of this Section,
the District, the Paying Agent, and any other person may treat
the person in whose name any Bond is registered as the
absolute Owner of such Bond for the purpose of making and
receiving all payments on the Bond and for all other purposes,
whether or not such Bond is overdue, and neither the District
nor the Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice or knowledge
to the contrary. All payments made to the person deemed to be
the Owner of any Bond in accordance with this Section shall be
valid and effectual and shall discharge the liability of the
District and the Paying Agent upon such Bond to the extent of
the sums paid. Principal and interest deposited with the
Paying Agent and remaining unclaimed for three (3) years shall
be reported and disposed of in accordance with the provisions
of Title 6 of the Texas Property code, as amended, to the
extent that such provisions are applicable.
SECTION 2.9: Cancellation. All Bonds surrendered
for payment, redemption, transfer, exchange, or replacement,
if surrendered to the Paying Agent, shall be promptly
cancelled by it and, if surrendered to the Issuer, shall be
delivered to the Paying Agent and, if not already cancelled,
shall be promptly cancelled by the Paying Agent. The Issuer
may at any time deliver to the Paying Agent for cancellation
any Bonds previously certified or authenticated and delivered
which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever,
and all Bonds so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the
Paying Agent. No Bond shall be authenticated in lieu of or in
exchange for any Bond cancelled as provided in this Section,
except as expressly provided by this Order. All cancelled
Bonds held by the Paying Agent shall be disposed of as
directed by Issuer Request.
SECTION THREE
PRIOR REDEMPTION OF BONDS
SECTION 3.1: Redemption of Bonds. The Bonds
maturing on or after September 1, 2005 are subject to
redemption prior to their scheduled maturities at the option
of the Issuer, as a whole or from time to time in part, on
September 1, 2004 or on any date thereafter at a price equal
to the principal amount of the Bonds called for redemption
plus accrued interest from the most recent interest payment
date to the date fixed for redemption.
SECTION 3.2: Exercise of Option. The exercise by
the Issuer of its option to redeem any Bonds shall be by Order
16
. . .
or Resolution entered in the minutes of the Board of Directors
of the District. The District shall, at least thirty (30)
days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice
shall be satisfactory to the Paying Agent), notify the Paying
Agent of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of
Bonds of each Stated Maturity to be redeemed.
SECTION 3.3: Procedures. If less than all of the
Outstanding Bonds of any Stated Maturity are to be redeemed,
the particular Bonds of such Stated Maturity or portions
thereof to be redeemed shall be selected by the District from
the Outstanding Bonds which have not previously been called
for redemption, by such random method as the District shall
deem customary and equitable and which may provide for the
selection for redemption of portions (equal to $5,000 or a
multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Bonds of a
denomination larger than $5,000. The District shall promptly
notify the Paying Agent in writing of the Bonds selected for
redemption and, in the case of any Bond selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. For
purposes of this Order, unless the context otherwise requires,
all provisions relating to the redemption of Bonds shall
relate, in the case of any Bond redeemed only in part, to the
portion of the principal of such Bond which has or is to be
redeemed.
SECTION 3.4: Notice to Holders of Redemption.
Notice of redemption shall be mailed by the Paying Agent in
the name of and at the expense of the District, not less than
thirty (30) days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder
of Bonds to be redeemed. Notice of redemption shall also be
given by publication of notice one time, not less than thirty
(3 0) days prior to the Redemption Date, in a financial journal
or publication of general circulation in the United States of
America. All notices of redemptions shall include a statement
as to (i) the Redemption Date, (ii) the Redemption Price,
(iii) the principal amount and identification (by Bond and
CUSIP number, Stated Maturity, interest rate, and Issue Date
and, in the case of partial redemption, the respective
principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed, (iv) that on
the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of each of the Bonds
to be redeemed will become due and payable and that interest
thereon shall cease to accrue from and after such date, and
(v) that such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of the
Redemption Price at the principal office of the Paying Agent,
and the address of such office.
The Paying Agent shall give written notice of
redemption, by registered mail, overnight delivery, or other
comparably secure means, not less than 30 days prior to the
Redemption Date, to each registered securities depository (and
to each national information service that disseminates
17
• •
redemption notices) known to the Paying Agent, but neither the
failure to give such notice nor any defect therein shall
affect the sufficiency of notice given to Bondholders as
hereinabove stated.
SECTION 3.5: Payment. Notice of redemption having
been given as aforesaid, the Bonds so to be redeemed shall, on
the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption
Price, and from and after such date (unless the District shall
default in the payment of the Redemption Price) such bonds
shall cease to bear interest. Upon the surrender of such
Bonds for redemption in accordance with such notice, such
Bonds shall be paid by the Paying Agent at the Redemption
Price out of money supplied by the District. Installments of
interest with a Stated Maturity on or prior to the Redemption
Date shall be payable to the Holders of such bonds registered
as such on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms.
If any Bond called for redemption shall not be so paid on the
date set for redemption by reason of the failure of the
District to provide collected funds, the same shall continue
to bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by
such Bond.
SECTION 3.6: Partial Redemption. Any Bond which
is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at the
office of the Paying Agent (if payment is to be made to other
than the registered owner with due endorsement by, or a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Paying Agent duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing) and the District shall
execute and the Paying Agent shall register and deliver to the
Holder of such Bond, without service charge to the Holder, a
new Bond or Bonds of the same Stated Maturity and of any
authorized denomination or denominations as requested by such
Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange
for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Bond so
surrendered.

rights thereunder of the Holders of such Bonds and the Issuer,
and the terms upon which such Bonds are, and are to be,

Bond issued upon the transfer or in lieu hereof or in exchange
hereof, whether or not notation of such consent is made upon
this Bond.
As provided in the Bond Order and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, this Bond is transferable on
the Bond Register of the Issuer upon surrender of this Bond
for transfer to the Paying Agent at the Place of Payment duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Paying Agent duly
executed by the registered Holder hereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new fully
registered Bonds of the same Stated Maturity, of authorized
denominations, and for the same aggregate principal amount
will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

Bonds of the same Stated Maturity, of designated authorized
denominations, and for the same aggregate principal amount
will be issued to the registered Holder of this Bond.
No service charge shall be made for any transfer or
exchange hereinabove referred to, but the Issuer or the Paying
Agent may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

either of them may treat the Person in whose name this Bond is
registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving

of this Bond in order to render the same a legal, valid, and
binding obligation of the Issuer have been performed, exist,

as required by law, and that the issuance of the Bonds does
not exceed any constitutional or statutory limitation. For
the faithful performance of all covenants, recitals, and
stipulations herein contained, the full faith, credit, and
resources of the Issuer are hereby pledged. In case any
provision in this Bond or any application thereof shall be
invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality,
and enforceability of the remaining provisions and
applications shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby. This Bond shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the laws of the State of Texas and the federal law

SECTION FIVE
SECURITY OF THE BONDS
SECTION 5.1: Pledge and Levy of Taxes. For each
year while any Bond is Outstanding and the Issuer remains in
existence there shall be and is hereby levied and assessed a
continuing direct annual ad valorem tax upon each $100
valuation of taxable property within the Issuer at a rate from
year to year sufficient, full allowance being made for
anticipated delinquencies, together with revenues and receipts
from other sources which are legally available for such
purposes, (1) to pay interest on the Bonds as it becomes due,
(2) to provide a sinking fund for the payment of the principal
of the Bonds when due or the Redemption Price at any earlier
required Redemption Date, and (3) to pay the expenses of
assessing and collecting such tax. The Issuer shall timely
assess and diligently collect such tax and apply the
collections thereof solely as provided herein. Each order of
the Governing Body levying and establishing the rate of ad
valorem taxes shall specify (a) the portion of such rate
levied to pay principal (and Redemption Price) of, interest
on, and Paying Agent fees and expenses with respect to the
Bonds (including allocable delinquencies), (b) the portion, if
any, of such rate levied to pay other contractual obligations
of the Issuer payable in whole or in part from taxes, and (c)
the portion, if any, of such rate levied for operating and
maintenance purposes. All collections of ad valorem taxes,
including penalty and interest attributable thereto, shall be
allocated among such purposes in proportion to the respective
levies in the tax year with respect to which such taxes are
owed. For so long as any Bond remains Outstanding, all
collections of Issuer taxes levied to pay debt service
requirements on the Bonds, less allocable expenses of
26
•
assessing and collecting such taxes, shall be deposited not
less frequently than monthly to the Bond Fund.
SECTION 5.2: Pledge of Revenues. The Net Revenues
are hereby pledged to the payment of the principal, interest,
redemption price, and bank charges on the Bonds. The Revenues
hereby pledged shall immediately be subject to the lien of
this pledge without any physical delivery thereof or further
act, and the lien of this pledge shall be valid and binding as
against all parties of any kind having a claim of any kind in

A. Not to Cause Interest to Become Taxable. The
Issuer shall not use, permit the use of, or omit to use Gross
Proceeds or any other amounts (or any property acquired,
constructed, or improved with Gross Proceeds) in a manner
which, if made or omitted, respectively, would cause interest
on any Bond not to be excludable from the gross income, as
defined in Section 61 of the Code, of the owners thereof for
federal income tax purposes in accordance with Section 103 of
the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Issuer shall comply with each of the specific covenants in
this Section, unless and until the Issuer 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 either generally or to the extent or
in the instance stated therein will not adversely affect any
such excludability of interest, and thereafter such covenant
shall no longer be binding upon the Issuer either generally or
to such extent or in such instance, as applicable, anything in
any other Subsection of this Section to the contrary
notwithstanding.
B. No Private Use or Private Payments. The Issuer
shall either, (i) not use or permit the use of Gross Proceeds
(or any property acquired, constructed, or improved with Gross
Proceeds) in any trade or business carried on by any Person
(or in any activity of any Person other than a natural person)
other than a state or local government or (ii) not directly or
indirectly impose or accept any charge or other payment for
use of Gross Proceeds (or any property acquired, constructed,
or improved with Gross Proceeds) in any trade or business
carried on by any Person (or in any activity of any Person
other than a natural person) other than a state or local
government, in either case at all times prior to the last
Maturity of Bonds, unless either (a) such use is merely as a
member (and is extended by the Issuer on the same terms as to
all other members) of the general public or (b) such charge or
payment consists of taxes of general application within the
Issuer or interest earned on Investments acquired with Gross
30
• •
Proceeds pending application for their intended purposes. For
purposes of this Subsection B, property is considered to be
"used" by a Person if:
(1) it is sold or otherwise disposed of, or leased
to such Person;
(2) it is operated, managed, or otherwise
physically employed, utilized, or consumed by such
Person, excluding operation or management pursuant to an
agreement if (a) such agreement
(i) has a term (including renewal options)
which does not exceed five years,
(ii) may be cancelled by the Issuer at the
end of any three -year period, and
(iii) provides for compensation to such
Person that is reasonable in relation to the
services performed, is not based on a share of net
profits or net revenue, and, as to not less 50% of
such compensation annually, is based on a periodic
fixed fee,
(b) no member of the Governing Body, individually or
with other such members, owns a controlling interest in
such Person or is an employee or member of the governing
board of such Person, and (c) no employee of the Issuer
is a member of the governing board of such Person;

property is reserved or committed to such Person under a
take -or -pay, output, incentive payment, or similar
contract or arrangement;
(4) such property is used to provide service to (or
such service is committed to or reserved for) such Person
on a basis or terms which (except possibly for the amount
of use and any corresponding rate adjustment) are
different from the basis or terms on which such service
is provided (or committed or reserved) to members of the
public generally;
(5) such Person is a developer and a significant
amount of property acquired, constructed, or improved
with proceeds from the sale of the Bonds (or income from
the investment thereof) serves only a limited area
substantially all of which is owned by such Person, or a
limited group of developers, unless such area is
developed and sold to (and occupied by) members of the
general public with reasonable speed; or
31
• •
(6) substantial burdens and benefits of ownership
of such property are otherwise effectively transferred to
such Person.
C. No Private Loan. The Issuer shall not use
Gross Proceeds to make or finance loans to any Person other
than a state or local government, excluding loans consisting
of temporary investments of Gross Proceeds pending application
for their intended purposes. For purposes of this Subsection

Bonds, directly or indirectly invest Gross Proceeds in any
Investment (or use Gross Proceeds to replace money so
invested), if as a result of such investment the Yield from
the Issue Date of all Investments acquired with Gross Proceeds
(or with money replaced thereby), whether then held or
previously disposed of, exceeds the Yield of the Bonds.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the following
Investments shall be excluded from the limitation and
calculation described in this Subsection D:
(1) Investments acquired with proceeds from the
sale of Bonds or income from the investment thereof, to
the extent such Investments are held during the first
three years after the Issue Date and, in the case of
proceeds or income held for the account of the
Construction Funds, prior to the date on which the
project or projects for which the Bonds are being issued
have been completed, if earlier;
(2) Investments acquired with income from
investment of proceeds from the sale of the Bonds, to the
extent such Investments are held during the first year after
receipt of such income;
(3) Certain investments acquired with amounts held
for the credit of the Bond Fund to the extent such
investments are held for the durations specified in the
Code or current regulations; and
32
•
(4) Any other Investments to the extent the
aggregate cost thereof, adjusted upward by the amortized
portion (calculated on a straight -line basis) of any
discount at which such Investments were acquired, does
not exceed the lesser of $100,000 or 5% of the proceeds
from sale of the Bonds.
The Issuer shall pursue work on the project or projects for
which the Bonds are being issued with due diligence until
completion. The Issuer shall not (a) use any money to pay
principal of or interest on the Bonds, or pledge (or permit to

y
or indirectly, to pay principal of or interest on any other

or (c) at any time prior to the Maturity of the Bonds, invest
amounts held for the credit of the Bond Fund in any investment
for which there is not an established market at the time of
such investment, except for Investments described in Clauses
1 through (5) of this Subsection ( ) g ( ) S ection to the extent such
Investments are acquired and either mature or are disposed of
during the period, if any, described in such Clause.
E. No Rebate Required. The Issuer warrants and
represents that
(1) all of the proceeds of the Bonds and income
from the investment thereof will be used for the governmental
activities of the Issuer;
(2) the aggregate face amount of all debt
obligations issued or expected to be issued by the Issuer in
the calendar year of the Issue Date (including the Bonds) is
not reasonably expected to exceed $5,000,000;
(3) there are no other Persons which derive their
authority from or are subject to the control of the Issuer and
which have authority to issue obligations described in section
103 of the Code; and
(4) consequently the Issuer satisfies the
requirements of paragraphs (2) and (3) of section 148(f) of
the Code with respect to the Bonds without making the payments
to the United States described in such section.
F. No Federal Guaranty. The District covenants
and agrees not to take any action, or knowingly omit to take
any action within its control, that, if taken or omitted,
33
.
• •
respectively, would cause the Bonds to be "federally
guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code
and applicable regulations thereunder, except as permitted by
Section 149(b) (3) of the Code and such regulations.

and agrees to file or cause to be filed with the Secretary of

149(e) of the Code and applicable regulations thereunder.
SECTION 7.5: Bondholder's Mandamus. If the Issuer
shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest
on the Bonds when due or in the observance or performance of
any of the covenants, conditions, or obligations set forth in
this Order, any Bondholder shall, in addition to all other
rights and remedies of such Bondholder provided by the laws of
the State of Texas, be entitled to a writ of mandamus issued
by a court of proper jurisdiction compelling and requiring the
Governing Body and other officers of the Issuer to make such
payment or to observe and perform such covenant, obligation,
or condition. No delay or omission by any Bondholder to
exercise any right or power accruing to such Bondholder upon
default shall impair any such right and power, or shall be
construed to be a waiver of any such default or acquiescence
therein, and in every such right or power may be exercised
from time to
time and as often as may be deemed expedient.

SECTION NINE
DEFEASANCE
SECTION 9.1: Discharcte of Obligations. Any Bond
shall be deemed to be paid and shall no longer be considered
to be a Bond within the meaning of this Order when payment of
the principal of and interest on such Bond to the Stated
Maturity thereof or (if notice of redemption shall have been
duly given, irrevocably provided for, or waived as provided
herein) to the Redemption Date shall have been made or shall
have been provided for by deposit with the Paying Agent for
such payment (or with any other bank or trust company which
has agreed to hold the same for such purpose) (1) money
sufficient to make such payment, (2) Governmental Securities
certified by an independent public accounting firm of national
reputation to be of such maturities and interest payment dates
and to bear such interest as will, without further investment
or reinvestment or either the principal amount thereof or the
interest earnings therefrom, be sufficient to make such
payment, or (3) a combination of money and Governmental
Securities together so certified sufficient to make such
payment, provided that all the expenses pertaining to the
Bonds with respect to which such deposit is made shall have
been paid or the payment thereof provided for to the
satisfaction of the Paying Agent (and to such other bank or
trust company).
In the event such deposit is made with respect to
some but not all of the Bonds then Outstanding, the Issuer
shall designate the Stated Maturities of the Bonds with
respect to which such deposit is made. If such deposit shall
be sufficient to provide for the payment of the principal of
and interest on some but not all Outstanding Bonds of a
particular Stated maturity so designated, the Paying Agent
shall select the Outstanding Bonds of such Stated Maturity
with respect to which such deposit if made by such random
method as the Paying Agent shall deem fair and appropriate and
which may provide for the selection of portions (equal to
$5,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal
amount of Bonds of a denomination larger than $5,000.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no
such deposit shall have the effect described in this Section
(a) if made during the existence of a default in the payment
of any Bond unless made with respect to all of the Bonds then
Outstanding or (b) unless accompanied by an opinion of counsel
of recognized standing in the field of federal income taxation
to the effect that neither such deposit nor the investment
thereof shall adversely affect the excludability of interest
35
• •
on any Bond from the gross income of any owner thereof for
federal income tax purposes.
Any money and Governmental Securities deposited for
such purpose shall be held by the Paying Agent (or other bank
or trust company) with which such deposit is made in a
segregated account in trust or escrow for the Holders of the
Bonds with respect to which such deposit is made and, together
with any investment income therefrom, shall be disbursed
solely to pay the principal of and interest on such Bonds when
due, except that cash receipts may be withdrawn and paid to
the Issuer provided the date and amount of such withdrawals
are taken into account in the most recent verification of the
accounting firm referred to in this Section. No money or
Governmental Securities so deposited shall be invested or
reinvested unless in Governmental Securities and unless such
money and Governmental Securities not invested and such new
investments are together certified by an independent public
accounting firm of national reputation to be of such amounts,
maturities, and interest payment dates and to bear such
interest as will, without further investment or reinvestment
of either the principal amount thereof or the interest
earnings therefrom, be sufficient to make such payment.
At such times as a Bond shall be deemed to be paid
hereunder, as aforesaid, it shall no longer be entitled to the
benefits of this Order, except for the purposes of any such
payment from such money or Governmental Securities.
