the Bonds, exclusive of unused discount and accrued interest, an amount equal to the estimated
cost of the Projects (including bond issuance expenses) and from the Construction Fund there
shall be paid all construction costs and expenses (including bond issuance expenses). There shall
also be credited to the Construction Fund all special assessments collected with respect to the
Projects,until all costs of the Projects have been fully paid. After payment of all construction
costs and bond issuance expenses, the Construction Fund shall be discontinued and any Bond
proceeds remaining therein may be transferred to the other funds or accounts established for
construction of other improvements instituted pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429. All
special assessments on hand in the Construction Fund when terminated or thereafter received,
and any Bond proceeds not so transferred, shall be credited to the General Obligation
Improvement Bonds, Series 2000A Bond Fund of the City.
SECTION 4. GENERAL OBLIGATION IMPROVEMENT BONDS. SERIES 2000A BOND

records of the City to be known as the General Obligation Improvement Bonds, Series 2000A
Bond Fund (the Bond Fund), and the principal of and interest on the Bonds shall be payable from

accordance with this Resolution; and(d) all other moneys as shall be appropriated by the City
Council to the Bond Fund from time to time.
There are hereby established two accounts in the Bond Fund, designated as the "Debt
Service Account" and the "Surplus Account." There shall initially be deposited into the Debt
Service Account upon the issuance of the Bonds the amount set forth in (a) above. Thereafter,
during each Bond Year(i.e., each twelve month period commencing on February 2 and ending
on the following February 1), as monies are received into the Bond Fund, the Finance Director
shall first deposit such monies into the Debt Service Account until an amount has been
appropriated thereto sufficient to pay all principal and interest due on the Bonds through the end

be appropriated to the Surplus Account. If at any time the amount on hand in the Debt Service
Account is insufficient for the payment of principal and interest then due, the Finance Director

necessary to cure such deficiency. Investment earnings (and losses) on amounts from time to
time held in the Debt Service Account and Surplus Account shall be credited or charged to said

officers or employees of the City, either in the making of such assessment or in the performance
of any condition precedent thereto, the City hereby covenants and agrees that it will forthwith do

securities which are authorized by law to be so deposited,bearing interest payable at such time

SECTION 9. TAX COVENANTS: ARBITRAGE MATTERS: REIMBURSEMENT AND
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE.
9.01. General Tax Covenant. The City covenants and agrees with the registered owners
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 actions that would cause interest on the Bonds to become includable in
gross income of the recipient under the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations (the
Regulations), and covenants to take any and all actions within its powers to ensure that the
interest on the Bonds will not become includable in gross income of the recipient under the Code
and the Regulations. In particular, the City covenants and agrees that all proceeds of the Bonds
deposited in the Construction Fund will be expended solely for the payment of the costs of the
Projects (or other public improvements authorized pursuant to Chapter 429). All improvements
so financed will be owned and maintained by the City as part of the public infrastructure and
available for use by members of the general public on a substantially equal basis. The City shall
not enter into any lease, management,use or other agreement or contract with any
non-governmental person relating to the use of the Projects or security for the payment of the
Bonds which might cause the Bonds to be considered "private activity bonds" or"private loan
bonds"pursuant to Section 141 of the Code.
9.02. Certification. The Mayor and City Manager 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 to the Purchaser a certificate in accordance with the provisions of
Section 148 of the Code, and applicable Regulations, stating the facts, estimates and
circumstances in existence on the date of issue and delivery of the Bonds which make it
reasonable to 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 the Code and Regulations.
9.03. Arbitrage Rebate. The City acknowledges that the Bonds are subject to the rebate
requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code. The City covenants and agrees to retain such records,
make such determinations, file such reports and documents and pay such amounts at such times
as are required under Section 148(f) and applicable Regulations to preserve the exclusion of
interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes, unless the Bonds
qualify for an exception from the rebate requirement pursuant to one of the spending exceptions
set forth in Section 1.148-7 of the Regulations and no "gross proceeds" of the Bonds (other than
amounts constituting a"bona fide debt service fund") arise during or after the expenditure of the
original proceeds thereof.
9.04. Reimbursement. The City certifies that the proceeds of the Bonds will not be used
by the City to reimburse itself for any expenditure with respect to the Projects which the City
paid or will have paid more than 60 days prior to the issuance of the Bonds unless,with respect
to such prior expenditures, the City shall have made a declaration of official intent which
complies with the provisions of Section 1.150-2 of the Regulations; provided that this
certification shall not apply(i)with respect to certain de minimis expenditures, if any,with
respect to the Projects meeting the requirements of Section 1.150-2(f)(1) of the Regulations, or
(ii)with respect to "preliminary expenditures" for the Projects as defined in Section 1.150-2(f)(2)
-14-
Resolution 00-42 - Continued July 18, 2000
of the Regulations, including engineering or architectural expenses and similar preparatory
expenses, which in the aggregate do not exceed 20%of the"issue price" of the Bonds.
9.05. Continuing Disclosure. (a) Purpose and Beneficiaries. To provide for the public
availability of certain information relating to the Bonds and the security therefor and to permit
the Purchaser and other participating underwriters in the primary offering of the Bonds to comply
with amendments to Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (17 C.F.R. ' 240.15c2-12),relating to continuing disclosure(as in effect and interpreted
from time to time, the Rule),which will enhance the marketability of the Bonds,the City hereby
makes the following covenants and agreements for the benefit of the Owners (as hereinafter
defined) from time to time of the Outstanding Bonds. The City is the only obligated person in
respect of the Bonds within the meaning of the Rule for purposes of identifying the entities in
respect of which continuing disclosure must be made. The City has complied in all material
respects with any undertaking previously entered into by it under the Rule. If the City fails to
comply with any provisions of this section, any person aggrieved thereby, including the Owners
of any Outstanding Bonds,may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or
appropriate to enforce performance and observance of any agreement or covenant contained in
this section, including an action for a writ of mandamus or specific performance. Direct,
indirect, consequential and punitive damages shall not be recoverable for any default hereunder
to the extent permitted by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,in no
event shall a default under this section constitute a default under the Bonds or under any other
provision of this resolution. As used in this section, Owner or Bondowner means, in respect of a
Bond, the registered owner or owners thereof appearing in the bond register maintained by the
Registrar or any Beneficial Owner(as hereinafter defined)thereof, if such Beneficial Owner
provides to the Registrar evidence of such beneficial ownership in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Registrar. As used herein, Beneficial Owner means, in respect of a Bond, any
person or entity which(i)has the power, directly or indirectly, to vote or consent with respect to,
or to dispose of ownership of, such Bond (including persons or entities holding Bonds through
nominees, depositories or other intermediaries), or(b)is treated as the owner of the Bond for
federal income tax purposes.

(c)hereof, either directly or indirectly through an agent designated by the City,the following

City; and

City includes in the Disclosure Information a statement to such effect;provided,however, if such
operations have been replaced by other City operations in respect of which data is not included in

data regarding the replacement operations. If the Disclosure Information is changed or this
section is amended as permitted by this paragraph(b)(1) or subsection(d), then the City shall
include in the next Disclosure Information to be delivered hereunder, to the extent necessary, an

available to the public. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a Material Fact is also an event
that would be deemed material for purposes of the purchase,holding or sale of a Bond within the

conditions:

or, if such information is transmitted with a subsequent time of release, at the time
such information is to be released.
(d) Term: Amendments: Interpretation.
(1) The covenants of the City in this section shall remain in effect so long as any Bonds
are Outstanding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however,the obligations
of the City under this section shall terminate and be without further effect as of any
date on which the City delivers to the Registrar an opinion of Bond Counsel to the
effect that,because of legislative action or final judicial or administrative actions or
proceedings,the failure of the City to comply with the requirements of this section
will not cause participating underwriters in the primary offering of the Bonds to be in
violation of the Rule or other applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, or any statutes or laws successory thereto or amendatory
thereof.
(2) This section(and the form and requirements of the Disclosure Information)may be
amended or supplemented by the City from time to time,without notice to (except as

accompanied by an opinion of Bond Counsel,who may rely on certificates of the
City and others and the opinion may be subject to customary qualifications,to the
effect that: (i) such amendment or supplement(a)is made in connection with a
change in circumstances that arises from a change in law or regulation or a change in
the identity,nature or status of the City or the type of operations conducted by the
City, or(b) is required by, or better complies with,the provisions of paragraph(b)(5)
of the Rule; (ii)this section as so amended or supplemented would have complied
with the requirements of paragraph(b)(5) of the Rule at the time of the primary
offering of the Bonds, giving effect to any change in circumstances applicable under
clause(i)(a) and assuming that the Rule as in effect and interpreted at the time of the
amendment or supplement was in effect at the time of the primary offering; and(iii)
such amendment or supplement does not materially impair the interests of the
Bondowners under the Rule.
If the Disclosure Information is so amended, the City agrees to provide,
contemporaneously with the effectiveness of such amendment, an explanation of the
reasons for the amendment and the effect, if any, of the change in the type of
financial information or operating data being provided hereunder.

the Rule and should be construed so as to satisfy the requirements of paragraph
(b)(5) of the Rule.
