legal entity) in whose name a Bond is registered in the Bond Register.

4
registration .of any transfer after the fifteenth day of the month preceding each
interest payment date and until such interest payment date.

registered owner for exchange the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver one or
more new Bonds of a like aggregate principal amount and maturity, as requested
by the registered owner or the owner's attorney in writing.
(d) Cancellation. All Bonds surrendered upon any transfer or exchange
shall be promptly canceled by the Registrar and thereafter disposed of as directed
by the Issuer.
(e) Improper or Unauthorized Transfer. When any Bond is presented to
the Registrar for transfer, the Registrar may refuse to transfer the same until it is
satisfied that the endorsement on such Bond or separate instrument of transfer is
valid and genuine and that the requested transfer is legally authorized. The
Registrar shall incur no liability for the refusal, in good faith, to make transfers
which it, in its judgment, deems improper or unauthorized.
(f) Persons Deemed Owners. The Issuer and the Registrar may treat the
person in whose name any Bond is at any time registered in the bond register as
the absolute owner of the Bond, whether the Bond shall be overdue or not, for the
purpose of receiving payment of or on account of, the principal of and interest on
the Bond and for all other purposes, and all payments made to any registered
owner or upon the owner's order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and
discharge the liability upon the Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(g) Taxes. Fees and Charges. For every transfer or exchange of Bonds
(except for an exchange upon a partial redemption of a Bond), the Registrar may
impose a charge upon the owner thereof sufficient to reimburse the Registrar for
any tax, fee or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such
transfer or exchange.

become mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Registrar shall deliver a new
Bond of like amount, number, maturity date and tenor in exchange and
substitution for and upon cancellation of any such mutilated Bond or in lieu of

reasonable expenses and charges of the Registrar in connection therewith, and, in
the case of a Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, upon filing with the Registrar of
evidence satisfactory to it that the Bond was destroyed, stolen or lost, and of the
ownership thereof, and upon furnishing to the Registrar of an appropriate bond or
indemnity in form, substance and amount satisfactory to it, in which both the
Issuer and the Registrar shall be named as obligees. All Bonds so surrendered to
the Registrar shall be canceled by it and evidence of such cancellation shall be
given to the Issuer. If the mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Bond has already
5
matured or been called for redemption in accordance with its terms it shall not be
necessary to issue a new Bond prior to payment.
(i) Authenticating Agent. The Registrar is hereby designated
authenticating agent for the Bonds, within the meaning of Minnesota Statutes,
Section 475.55, Subdivision 1, as amended.
G) Valid Obligations. All Bonds issued upon any transfer or exchange of
Bonds shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and

the direction of the City Manager and shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the
signatures of the Mayor and the City Manager, provided that the signatures may be
printed, engraved or lithographed facsimiles of the originals. In case any officer whose
signature or a facsimile of whose signature shall appear on the Bonds shall cease to be
such officer before the delivery of any Bond, such signature or facsimile shall
nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if such officer had
remained in office until delivery. Notwithstanding such execution, no Bond shall be
valid or obligatory for any purpose or entitled to any security or benefit under this
resolution unless and until a certificate of authentication on the Bond has been duly
executed by the manual signature of an authorized representative of the Registrar.
Certificates of authentication on different Bonds need not be signed by the same
representative. The executed certificate of authentication on each Bond shall be
conclusive evidence that it has been authenticated and delivered under this resolution.

deliver them to the Purchaser upon payment of the purchase price in accordance with the
contract of sale heretofore executed, and the Purchaser shall not be obligated to see to the

interest on the Bonds, selecting the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, ifany,
giving any notice permitted or required to be given to registered owners of Bonds under
this resolution, registering the transfer of Bonds, and for all other purposes whatsoever,
and neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

DTC, the Registrar shall pay all principal of and interest on such Bond, and shall give all
notices with respect to such Bond, only to Cede & Co. in accordance with DTC's
Operational Arrangements, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully
satisfy and discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the principal of and interest
on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No person other than DTC shall
receive an authenticated Bond for each separate stated maturity evidencing the obligation
of the Issuer to make payments of principal and interest. Upon delivery by DTC to the

Beneficial Owners that they be able to obtain Bonds in the form of bond certificates, the

the availability through DTC of Bonds in the form of certificates. In such event, the
Bonds will be transferable in accordance with paragraph (e) hereof. DTC may determine

thereto under applicable law. In such event the Bonds will be transferable in accordance

depository as owner of all the Bonds, the provisions of this resolution shall also apply to

when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Registrar a sum
sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest accrued from the due date to the
date of such deposit. The Issuer may also discharge its obligations with respect to any
prepayable Bonds called for redemption on any date when they are prepayable according

the principal, interest and redemption premium, if any, which are then due, provided that
notice of such redemption has been duly given as provided herein. The Issuer may also
at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions

deposited for such purpose, bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates and

principal and interest to become due thereon to maturity or, if notice of redemption as

date, provided, however, that if such deposit is made more than ninety days before the
maturity date or specified redemption date of the Bonds to be discharged, the Issuer shall
have received a written opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such deposit does not
adversely affect the exemption of interest on any Bonds from federal income taxation and
a written report of an accountant or investment banking firm verifying that the deposit is
sufficient to pay when due all of the principal and interest on the Bonds to be discharged
on and before their maturity dates or earlier designated redemption date.

Auditor are hereby authorized and directed to prepare and furnish to the Purchaser and to
Dorsey & Whitney LLP, Bond Counsel, certified copies of all proceedings and records
relating to the Bonds and such other affidavits, certificates and information as may be
required to show the facts relating to the legality and marketability of the Bonds, as the
same appear from the books and records in their custody and control or as otherwise
known to them, and all such certified copies, affidavits and certificates, including any
heretofore furnished, shall be deemed representations of the Issuer as to the correctness of
all statements contained therein.

,2009, prepared and delivered on behalf of the Issuer by Springsted
Incorporated, is hereby approved, and the officers of the Issuer are hereby authorized and

and directed to execute such certificates as may be appropriate concerning the accuracy,

SECTION 6. TAX COVENANTS; ARBITRAGE MA TIERS AND CONTINUING
DISCLOSURE.
14
6.1. General Tax Covenant. The Issuer covenants and agrees with the registered
owners from time to time ofthe 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 includable in gross income of the recipient under the Code and applicable
Treasury Regulations (the "Regulations"), and covenants to take any and all affirmative
actions within its powers to ensure that the interest on the Bonds will not become
includable in the gross income of the recipient under the Code and the Regulations. The
Issuer has not and will not enter into any lease, management contract, operating
agreement, use agreement or other contract relating to the use or operation of the
facilities refinanced by the Bonds, or any portion thereof, or security for the payment of
the Bonds which would cause the Bonds to be considered "private activity bonds" or
"private loan bonds" pursuant to Section 141 of the Code.
6.2. Arbitrage Certification. The Mayor and City Manager, being the officers of
the Issuer 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 Section
1.148-2(b) of the 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.
6.3. Arbitrage Rebate. The Issuer acknowledges that the Bonds are subject to the
rebate requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code. The Issuer 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 said 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.
6.4. Qualified Tax-Exempt Obligations. The City Council hereby designates the
Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the
Code relating to the disallowance of interest expense for financial institutions, and hereby
finds that the reasonably anticipated amount of tax-exempt obligations which are not
private activity bonds (not treating qualified 501(c)(3) bonds under Section 145 of the
Code as private activity bonds for the purpose of this representation) and are not excluded
from this calculation by Section 265(b)(3)(C)(ii) of the Code which will be issued by the
Issuer and all subordinate entities during calendar year 2009 does not exceed
$30,000,000.
6.5. Redemption of Refunded Bonds. The City Manager is hereby directed to
advise U.S. Bank National Association, as paying agent for the Refunded Bonds, to call
the Refunded Bonds for redemption and prepayment on the Crossover Date and to give
15
notice of redemption in accordance with the resolution authorizing the issuance of the
Refunded Bonds. A form of notice of redemption is attached hereto.
6.6. 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 Issuer 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 Issuer 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 Issuer has complied in all
material respects with any undertaking previously entered into by it under the Rule. If
the Issuer 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 (a) 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

purposes.

Material Fact is also an event that would be deemed material for purposes of the
purchase, holding or sale of a Bond within the meaning of applicable federal securities
laws, as interpreted at the time of discovery of the occurrence of the event.

conditions:

under the Rille;

MSRB;

maintaining a rating of the Bonds at the request of the City and, at the

subsection ( c), as the case may be, or, if such information is transmitted with

any Bonds are Outstanding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
however, the obligations of the Issuer under this section shall terminate and
be without further effect as of any date on which the Issuer 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 Issuer 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 Issuer from time to time, without

Owners of any Bonds, by a resolution of this Council filed in the office of the
recording officer of the Issuer accompanied by an opinion of Bond Counsel,
who may rely on certificates of the Issuer 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 Issuer or the type of operations conducted by the Issuer, 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
19
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 Issuer 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.

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