(f) Persons Deemed Owners. The City 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 such Bond, whether such Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of
receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of and interest on such Bond and

of the City upon such 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

not be necessary to issue a new Bond prior to payment.
3.04. Appointment of Initial Registrar. The City hereby appoints the City
Finance Director, as the initial Registrar. In the event that the City determines to discontinue
the book entry-only system for the Bonds as described in paragraph (c) of Section 3.07, or DTC,
as defined in Section 3.07, determines to discontinue providing its services with respect to the
Bonds and a new securities depository is not appointed for the Bonds, the City will designate a
suitable bank or trust company to act as successor Registrar if the City Finance Director is then
acting as Registrar. The City reserves the right to remove any Registrar upon thirty (30) days

Registrar shall deliver all cash and Bonds in its possession to the successor Registrar and shall
deliver the bond register to the successor Registrar.
3.05. Redemption. Bonds maturing in the years 2002 through 2006 shall not be
subject to redemption prior to maturity, but Bonds maturing in the years 2007 through 2011
shall each be subject to redemption and prepayment, at the option of the City, in whole or in
part, and if in part, in the maturities selected by the City and, within any maturity, in $5,000
principal amounts selected by the Registrar by lot, on February 1, 2006 and on any date
thereafter at a price equal to the principal amount thereof to be redeemed plus interest accrued
to the date of redemption. At least thirty days prior to the date set for redemption of any Bond,
• the City Clerk shall cause notice of the call for redemption to be mailed to the Registrar and to
the registered owner of each Bond to be redeemed, but no defect in or failure to give such
8
mailed notice of redemption shall affect the validity of proceedings for the redemption of any
Bond not affected by such defect or failure. The notice of redemption shall specify the
redemption date, redemption price, the numbers, interest rates and CUSIP numbers of the
Bonds to be redeemed and the place at which the Bonds are to be surrendered for payment,
which is the principal office of the Registrar. Official notice of redemption having been given
as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions thereof so to be redeemed shall, on the redemption date,
become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified and from and after such date
(unless the City shall default in the payment of the redemption price) such Bonds or portions
thereof shall cease to bear interest.

Company, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) and one or more national information services that
disseminate information regarding municipal bond redemptions;provided that any defect in or
any failure to give any notice of redemption prescribed by this paragraph shall not affect the
validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Bond or portion thereof.

integral multiple of $5,000. The owner of any Bond redeemed in part shall receive, upon
surrender of such Bond to the Registrar, one or more new Bonds of such same series in
authorized denominations equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Bond so
• surrendered.
3.06. Preparation and Delivery. The Bonds shall be prepared under the
direction of the City Finance Director and shall be executed on behalf of the City by the
signatures of the Mayor and the City Manager. In case any officer whose signature shall appear
on the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of any Bond, such signature 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 such Bond has been duly executed by the manual signature of
the Registrar, or in the event the City Finance Director is no longer acting as Registrar, 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. When the Bonds have been so executed and authenticated, they shall be delivered
by the City Finance Director to the Purchaser upon payment of the purchase price in
accordance with the contract of sale heretofore made and executed, and the Purchaser shall not
be obligated to see to the application of the purchase price.

. nominee of DTC with respect to the Bonds.

(b) The Bonds shall be initially issued as separately authenticated fully
registered bonds, and one Bond shall be issued in the principal amount of each stated maturity
of the Bonds. Upon initial issuance, the ownership of such Bonds shall be registered in the
bond register in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. The Registrar and the City may
treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Bonds registered in its name
for the purposes of payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds, selecting the Bonds or
portions thereof to be redeemed, if any, 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 City shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary. Neither the Registrar nor the City shall have any responsibility or
obligation to any Participant, any person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in the Bonds
under or through DTC or any Participant, or any other person which is not shown on the bond
register as being a registered owner of any Bonds, with respect to the accuracy of any records
• maintained by DTC or any Participant, with respect to the payment by DTC or any Participant
of any amount with respect to the principal of or interest on the Bonds, with respect to any
notice which is permitted or required to be given to owners of Bonds under this resolution,
with respect to the selection by DTC or any Participant of any person to receive payment in the
event of a partial redemption of the Bonds, or with respect to any consent given or other action
taken by DTC as registered owner of the Bonds. So long as any Bond is registered in the name
of Cede &Co., as nominee of 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 the Representation Letter, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully
satisfy and discharge the City'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 City to
make payments of principal and interest. Upon delivery by DTC to the Registrar of written
notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede &
Co., the Bonds will be transferable to such new nominee in accordance with paragraph (d)
hereof.
(c) In the event the City determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial
Owners that they be able to obtain Bonds in the form of bond certificates, the City may notify
DTC and the Registrar,whereupon DTC shall notify the Participants of 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 to discontinue providing its
services with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving notice to the City and the Registrar and
discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. In such event the
Bonds will be transferable in accordance with paragraph(d)hereof.
10
(d) In the event that any transfer or exchange of Bonds is permitted under
• paragraph(b) or (c) hereof,such transfer or exchange shall be accomplished upon receipt by the
Registrar of the Bonds to be transferred or exchanged and appropriate instruments of transfer
to the permitted transferee in accordance with the provisions of this resolution. In the event
Bonds in the form of certificates are issued to owners other than Cede & Co., its successor as
nominee for DTC as owner of all the Bonds, or another securities depository as owner of all the
Bonds, the provisions of this resolution shall also apply to all matters relating thereto,
including, without limitation, the printing of such Bonds in the form of bond certificates and
the method of payment of principal of and interest on such Bonds in the form of bond
certificates.
Section 4. Use of Proceeds and Security Provisions.
Section 4.01. Use of Proceeds and Construction Fund. There is hereby
established on the official books and records of the City a Series 2000A General Obligation Tax
Increment Bond Construction Fund (the"Construction Fund"). To the Construction Fund there
shall be credited all proceeds of the Bonds. From the Construction Fund there shall be paid by
the City or HRA all costs and expenses of the Project and the issuance of the Bonds. After
payment of all costs of the Project, the Construction Fund shall be discontinued and any Bond
proceeds and other funds remaining therein shall be transferred to the Sinking Fund created
pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof.
Section 4.02. General Obligation Tax Increment Bond Sinking Fund. The Bonds
shall be payable from a separate Series 2000A General Obligation Tax Increment Bond Sinking
• Fund (the "Sinking Fund") which shall be created and maintained on the books of the City as a
separate debt redemption fund until the Bonds, and all interest thereon, are fully paid. There
shall be credited to the Sinking Fund the following:
(a) Any amount deposited therein pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof.
(b) Tax increments described in Section 4.03 to be received from the HRA.

or appropriated to the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds, including all

There are hereby established two accounts in the Sinking Fund, designated as
the "Debt Service Account" and the "Surplus Account." All money appropriated or to be
deposited in the Bond Fund shall be deposited as received into the Debt Service Account. On
each February 1, the City Finance Director shall determine the amount on hand in the Debt
Service Account. If such amount is in excess of one-twelfth of the debt service payable from the
Bond Fund in the immediately preceding 12 months, the City Finance Director shall promptly
transfer the amount in excess to the Surplus Account. The City appropriates to the Surplus
Account any amounts to be transferred thereto from the Debt Service Account as herein
• provided and all income derived from the investment of amounts on hand in the Surplus
Account. If at any time the amount on hand in the Debt Service Account is insufficient to meet
the requirements of the Bond Fund, the City Finance Director-shall transfer to the Debt Service
11
Account amounts on hand in the Surplus Account to the extent necessary to cure such
deficiency.
• 4.03. Tax Increment Financing District. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section
469.178,subdivision 2,the City has entered into a pledge agreement with the HRA whereby the
HRA will pay to the City tax increments from the Grandview Area Tax Increment Financing
District (Hennepin County No. 1202) (the "District") of the HRA in an amount sufficient, with
other funds appropriated by the City to the Sinking Fund, to pay the principal of and interest
on the Bonds when due. Such tax increments shall be deposited in the Sinking Fund. Nothing
herein shall preclude the City or the HRA from hereafter making further pledges and
appropriations of the tax increments from the District for the payment of other obligations of
the City or HRA or to pay costs eligible to be paid from the tax increments from the District.
4.04. Full Faith and Credit Pledged. The full faith and credit and taxing power
of the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged for the prompt and full payment of the
principal of and interest on the Bonds. It is estimated that the tax increment from the District to
be paid by the HRA to the City and other funds herein pledged for the payment of the Bonds
will be collected in amounts not less than five percent in excess of the amounts needed to meet
when due the principal of and interest on the Bonds as required by Minnesota Statutes, Section
475.61. Consequently, no ad valorem taxes are now levied to pay the Bonds or the interest to
come due thereon,pursuant to Minnesota Statutes,Section 469.178,subdivision 2.
Section 5. Defeasance. When all of the Bonds have been discharged as provided
in this section, 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 depositing with the paying agent 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 paying agent 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 Bond called for redemption on any
date when it is 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 time 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.
Section 6. Registration, Certification of Proceedings, Investments of Moneys,
Arbitrage and Official Statement.
6.01. Registration. The City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to file a
certified copy of this resolution with the County Auditor of Hennepin County, together with
• such other information as he shall require, and to obtain from the County Auditor a certificate
that the Bonds have been entered on upon the Auditor's register as required by law.
12
6.02. Certification of Proceedings. The officers of the City and the County
Auditor of Hennepin County 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 of the City, 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 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 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and Regulations
promulgated thereunder (the "Regulations'), as such are enacted or promulgated and in effect
on the date of issue of the Bonds,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 such Code and
Regulations. The Project to be financed with the Bonds will be owned and maintained by the
HRA,the City, or another governmental entity and available for use by members of the general
public on a substantially equal basis. The City shall not enter into any lease, use or other
agreement with any non-governmental person relating to the use of the Project or security for
the payment of the Bonds which might cause the Bonds to be considered "private activity
bonds" or"private loan bonds" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code.
6.04. Arbitrage Rebate. For purposes of complying with the requirements of
Section 148(f)(4)(C) of the Code relating to the exemption of certain small governmental units
• from the rebate requirements of the Code,the City represents that:
(i) the City is a governmental unit with general taxing powers;
(ii) the Bonds are not"private activity bonds" as defined in Section 141 of the
Code ("Private Activity Bonds");
(iii) ninety-five percent of the net proceeds of the Bonds are to be used for the
local governmental purposes of the City;and
(iv) the aggregate face amount of all tax-exempt bonds (other than Private
Activity Bonds) issued by the City in calendar year in which the Bonds
are to be issued is not reasonably expected to exceed$5,000,000.
Therefore, pursuant to the provisions of Section 148(f)(4)(B) of the Code, the City shall not be
required to comply with the arbitrage rebate requirements of paragraphs (2) and (3) of Section
148(f) of the Code.
6.05. Arbitrage 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 Section 1.148-2(b)(2) of the Regulations, stating
• the facts and estimates 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 said Code and Regulations.
13
6.06. Interest Disallowance. The City hereby designates the Bonds as "qualified
• tax-exempt obligations" for purpose of Section 265(b) of the Code relating to the disallowance
of interest expenses for financial institutions. The City represents that in calendar year 2000 it
does not reasonably expect to issue 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 purposes of this representation) in an amount in excess of$10,000,000.
6.07. Official Statement. The Official Statement relating to the Bonds, dated
August 3, 2000 (the "Official Statement"), prepared and distributed on behalf of the City by
Ehlers&Associates, Inc., is hereby approved. Ehlers &Associates, Inc., is hereby authorized of
behalf of the City to prepare and distribute to the Purchaser a supplement to the Official
Statement listing the offering price, the interest rates, other information relating to the Bonds
required to be included in the Official Statement by Rule 15c2-12 adopted by the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Within seven business days
from the date hereof, the City shall deliver to the Purchaser a reasonable number of copies of
the Official Statement and such supplement. The officers of the City are hereby authorized and
directed to execute such certificates as may be appropriate concerning the accuracy,
completeness and sufficiency of the Official Statement.
Section 7. 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 original purchaser
and other participating underwriters in the primary offering of the Bonds to comply with
• amendments to Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (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 (as hereinafter defined). 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.
If the City fails to comply with any provisions of this Section 7, 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 7, 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 8 constitute a default under the Bonds or under any other provision of this
resolution.
As used in this Section 7, "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
14
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. As used herein, "Outstanding " means when used
with reference to Bonds means all Bonds which have been issued and authenticated by the
Registrar except(i) Bonds which have been paid in full (ii) Bonds which have been cancelled by
the Registrar or surrendered to the Registrar for cancellation and (iii) Bonds which have been
discharged as provided in Section 5 hereof.

in subsection (c) hereof, either directly or indirectly through an agent designated by the City,
the following information at the following times:
(1) on or before 365 days after the end of each fiscal year of the City,
commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2000 the following financial information
and operating data in respect of the City (the"Disclosure Information'):
(A) the audited financial statements of the City for such fiscal year,
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board as modified in
accordance with the governmental accounting standards promulgated by the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board or as otherwise provided under
Minnesota law, as in effect from time to time, or, if and to the extent such
financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with such generally
accepted accounting principles for reasons beyond the reasonable control of the
City,noting the discrepancies therefrom and the effect thereof, and certified as to
• accuracy and completeness in all material respects by the fiscal officer of the
City;and
(B) To the extent not included in the financial statements referred to in
paragraph (A) hereof, the information for such fiscal year or for the period most
recently available of the type set forth below, which information may be
unaudited, but is to be certified as to accuracy and completeness in all material
respects by the fiscal officer of the City, to the best of his or her knowledge,
which certification may be based on the reliability of information obtained from
governmental or other third party sources:
Most recent population estimate; City Property Values; City Indebtedness; City
Tax Rates;Levies and Collections;and Current General Fund Budget.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph,if the audited financial statements are
not available by the date specified, the City shall provide on or before such date unaudited
financial statements in the format required for the audited financial statements as part of the
Disclosure Information and, within 10 days after the receipt thereof, the City shall provide the
audited financial statements.

15
from the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. The City shall clearly identify in the
Disclosure Information each document so incorporated by reference.
• If any part of the Disclosure Information can no longer be generated because the
operations of the City have materially changed or been discontinued, such Disclosure
Information need no longer be provided if the 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 the Disclosure Information and the
City determines that certain specified data regarding such replacement operations would be a
Material Fact (as defined in paragraph (2) of this subsection (b)), then, from and after such
determination, the Disclosure Information shall include such additional specified data
regarding the replacement operations.
If the Disclosure Information is changed or this Section 7 is amended as
permitted by this paragraph (1) or subsection (d), then the City shall include in the next
Disclosure Information to be delivered hereunder,to the extent necessary, an explanation of the
reasons for the amendment and the effect of any change in the type of financial information or
operating data provided.

(G) Modifications to rights of security holders;
(H) Bond calls;
(I) Defeasances;
(J) Release, substitution,or sale of property securing repayment of the securities;
(K) Rating changes.
As used herein, a "Material Fact" is a fact as to which a substantial likelihood
exists that a reasonably prudent investor would attach importance thereto in deciding to buy,
hold or sell a Bond or,if not disclosed,would significantly alter the total information otherwise
available to an investor from the Official Statement, information disclosed hereunder or
information generally 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 meaning of applicable federal securities laws, as
interpreted at the time of discovery of the occurrence of the event.
(3) In a timely manner,notice of the occurrence of any of the following events or
conditions:
• (A) the failure of the City to provide the Disclosure Information required
under paragraph (1) of this subsection(b) at the time specified thereunder;
16
(B) the amendment or supplementing of this Section 7 pursuant to
subsection (d), together with a copy of such amendment or supplement and any
• explanation provided by the City under paragraph (2) of subsection(d);
(C) the termination of the obligations of the City under this Section 7
pursuant to subsection (d);
(D) any change in the accounting principles pursuant to which the financial
statements constituting a portion of the Disclosure Information are prepared;and

state information depository then designated or operated by the State of Minnesota as
contemplated by the Rule (the"State Depository"),if any;
(2) the information described in paragraphs (2) and (3) of subsection (b), to the
Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board and to the State Depository,if any;and
(3) the information described in subsection (b), to any rating agency then
• maintaining a rating of the Bonds and, at the expense of such Bondowner, to any Bondowner
who requests in writing such information, at the time of transmission under paragraphs (1) or
(2) of this subsection (c), as the case may be, 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 7 shall remain in effect so long as
any Bonds are Outstanding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,however,the obligations
of the City under this Section 7 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 7 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 7(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
provided in paragraph (3) of subsection (b)) or the consent of the Owners of any Bonds, by a
resolution of this Council filed in the office of the recording officer of the City 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
17
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 7 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.
(3) This Section 7 is entered into to comply with the continuing disclosure
provisions of the Rule and should be construed so as to satisfy the requirements of paragraph
(b)(5) of the Rule.
Section 8. Severability. If any section, paragraph or provision of this resolution
shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity or unenforceability of
such section, paragraph or provision shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of this
resolution.
Section 9. Headings. Headings in this resolution are included for convenience
of reference only and are not a part hereof, and shall not limit or define the meaning of any
provision hereof.
