Bond, notice of the call for redemption will be published in a daily or weekly
periodical, published in a Minnesota city of the first class or its metropolitan

redemption of any Bond, a new Bond or Bonds will be delivered to the registered
owner without charge, representing the remaining principal amount outstanding.
As provided in the Resolution and subject to certain limitations set forth
therein, this Bond is transferable upon the books of the City at the principal

tax, fee or governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer

Resolution 83-103 - Continued November 15, 1983
4.02. Storm Sewer Reserve Fund. The Reserve Fund was created for the
District pursuant to Ordinance No. 601 of the City. So long as any of the Bonds
are outstanding and any principal thereof or interest thereon unpaid, the Finance
Director -Clerk shall maintain the Reserve Fund to be used for no purpose other
than (i) the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and on such
other storm sewer improvement bonds of the City as have been or may be directed

or hereafter identified in the Program. The City irrevocably appropriates to
the Reserve Fund the collections of any taxes levied in accordance with this
resolution and such other moneys as shall be received and appropriated to the
Reserve Fund from time to time. If the balance in the Reserve Fund is at any
time insufficient to pay all interest and principal then due on all bonds
payable therefrom, the payment shall be made from any fund of the City which is
available for that purpose, subject to reimbursement from the Reserve Fund when
the balance therein is sufficient. The City hereby covenants and agrees, for
the benefit of the holders from time to time of the Bonds, and any other bonds
issued and made payable from the Reserve Fund, that, so long as any Bonds are
outstanding, the City will not use any moneys on hand in the Reserve Fund for
the payment of costs of the Program, other than the payment of principal of or
interest on bonds payable from the Reserve Fund, unless the balance on hand in
the Reserve Fund after deducting the amount proposed to be withdrawn to pay
Program costs and adding the collection of any annual taxes levied pursuant to
Ordinance No. 601 hereof then in the process of collection, will be not less
than 5% in excess of amounts required to pay the principal of and interest due
or to become due within the immediately succeeding twelve months on all bonds
payable from the Reserve Fund.
4.03. Additional Bonds. The City reserves the right to issue additional
bonds payable from the Reserve Fund as may be required to finance costs of the
Program not financed hereby; provided that the City Council shall, prior to the
delivery of such additional bonds, levy or agree to levy by resolution sufficient
additional ad valorem taxes which, together with other moneys or revenues
pledged for the payment of said additional obligations, will produce revenues at
least five percent in excess of the amount needed to pay when due the principal
and interest on all bonds payable from the Revenue Fund. The additional ad
valorem taxes, and moneys or revenues so pledged, levied or agreed to be levied
shall be irrevocably appropriated to the Reserve Fund in the manner provided by
Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61.
4.04. One Hill Levy. Pursuant to the authority granted by Laws 1979,
Chapter 303, and Ordinance No. 601, the City Council hereby agrees to levy

in the District. Said tax is irrevocably appropriated to the Reserve Fund.
Said taxes shall be irrepealable as long as any of the Bonds herein authorized
are outstanding and unpaid; provided that the City reserves the right and power
to reduce the levies in the manner and to the extent provided in Minnesota
Statutes, Section 475.61.
Resolution 83-103 - Continued November 15, 1983
4.05. Full Faith and Credit Pledged. The full faith and credit of the
City are irrevocably pledged for the prompt and full payment of the principal of
and interest on the Bonds, and the Bonds shall be payable from the Reserve Fund
in accordance with the provisions and covenants contained in this resolution.
It is estimated that the ad valorem taxes levied herein and other moneys legally
available to the City for such purposes will be collected in amounts not less
than five percent in excess of the annual principal and interest requirements of
the Bonds. If the money on hand in the Reserve Fund should at any time be
insufficient to pay all principal and interest due on all bonds payable therefrom,
such amounts shall be paid from any other fund of the City and such other fund
shall be reimbursed therefor when sufficient money is available in the Reserve
Fund. If on October 1 in any year the sum of the balance in the Reserve Fund
plus the amount of ad valorem taxes theretofor levied and collectible through
the end of the following calendar year is not sufficient to pay when due all
principal and interest to become due on all bonds payable therefrom in said
following calendar year, or the Reserve Fund has incurred a deficiency in the
manner provided in this Section 4.05, an additional direct, irrepealable, ad
valorem tax shall be levied on all taxable property within the corporate limits
of the City for the purpose of restoring such accumulated or anticipated
deficiency in accordance with the provisions of this resolution.
Section 5. Defeasance. When all of the Bonds have been discharged as
provided in this Section 5, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by
this resolution to the holders of the Bonds shall cease. The City may discharge
its obligations with respect to any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably
depositing with the Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the
payment thereof in full; or, if any Bond should not be paid when due, it may
nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Registrar a sum sufficient for
the payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such deposit.
The City may also discharge its obligations with respect to any prepayable Bonds
called for redemption on any date when they are prepayable according to their
terms, by depositing with the Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient
for the payment thereof in full, provided that notice of the redemption thereof
has been duly given as provided in Section 3.05. The City may also at any time
discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions
of law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing
irrevocably in escrow, with a bank qualified by law as an escrow agent for this
purpose, cash or securities which are general obligations of the United States
or securities of United States agencies which are authorized by law to be so
deposited, bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates and maturing
on such dates as shall be required, without reinvestment, to pay all principal
and interest to become due thereon to maturity or, if notice of redemption as
herein required has been duly provided for, to such earlier redemption date.

same appear from the books and records under their custody and control or as
otherwise known to them, and all such certified copies, certificates and affidavits,
including any heretofore furnished, shall be deemed representations of the City
as to the facts recited therein.
6.03. Covenant. The City covenants and agrees with the holders from time
to time of the Bonds that it will not take or permit to be taken by any of its
officers, employees or agents any action which would cause the interest on the
Bonds to become subject to taxation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as
amended (the Code), and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the
Regulations), and covenants to take any and all actions within its powers to
ensure that the interest on the Bonds will not become subject to taxation under
the Code and the Regulations.
6.04. Investment of Moneys on Deposit in Reserve Fund. From and after
February 1, 993, the City Clerk shall ascertain month y the amount on deposit
in the Reserve Fund. If the amount on deposit therein ever exceeds by more than
$300,000 the aggregate amount of principal and interest due and payable from the
Reserve Fund within the next succeeding 12 months, such excess shall be used to
prepay and redeem Bonds or be invested at a yield less than or equal to the
yield on the Bonds, based upon their amounts, maturities and interest rates on
their date of issue, computed by the actuarial method. If any additional stone
sewer improvement bonds are ever issued and made payable from the Reserve Fund
pursuant to Section 4.03 hereof, the Dollar amount in the preceeding sentence
shall be changed to equal 15 percent of the aggregate original principal amount
of all bonds, including the Bonds which are then outstanding and payable therefrom.
The City reserves the right to amend the provisions of this Section 6.04 at any
time, whether prior to or after the delivery of the bonds, if and to the extent

meaning of Section 103(c) of the Code and Regulations.
6.05. Arbitrage Certification. The Mayor and Finance Director -Clerk, being
the officers of the City charged with the responsibility for issuing the Bonds
pursuant to this resolution, are authorized and directed to execute and deliver
