Authorization and Sale. 1.01. Authorization of Bonds. Pursuant to Resolution No. 2005-70, adopted on August 16, 2005, the City created a revolving fund as contemplated by Minnesota Statutes, Section 429.091, Subdivision 7a, designated as the Permanent Improvement Revolving Fund, and established certain accounts within such Permanent Improvement Revolving Fund. The City owns and operates a municipal storm sewer utility (the "Storm Water Utility") and a municipal sanitary sewer and water utility(the "Sewer and Water Utility," which together with the Storm • Water Utility is called the "Utilities"). This Council hereby determines that it is in the best interest of the City to issue its $10,765,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2012A (the "Bonds") for the purpose of(i) financing from the Permanent Improvement Revolving Fund the cost of the construction of various local street improvement projects designated as the Richmond Hills Park Neighborhood Roadway, Countryside, Tracy Avenue Roadway Reconstruction (Vernon Avenue to Benton Avenue), Viking Hills Neighborhood and Valley Estates Neighborhood (together, the "Improvements"); (ii) financing various improvements to the Utilities, including water, sanitary sewer and storm sewer improvement projects associated with street reconstruction projects (together, the "Utilities Improvements"); and (iii) to currently refund the City's General Obligation Permanent Improvement Revolving Fund Bonds, Series 2007, dated May 24, 2007 maturing in the years 2014 through 2019 in the aggregate principal amount of$3,720,000 (the "Refunded Bonds"). The Refunded Bonds will be redeemed on February 1, 2013 (the "Redemption Date"). This Council hereby determines to issue and sell the Bonds to defray the expense incurred and estimated to be incurred by the City in making the Improvements, the Utilities Improvements and to refund the Refunded Bonds, including every item of cost of the kinds authorized in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65. The portion of the Bonds issued to finance the Improvements are referred to as the "Improvement Bonds" and are issued pursuant to the Act and Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429 and Chapter 475, the portion of the Bonds issued to finance the Utilities Improvements are designated as the "Utilities Bonds" and are issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 444.075 and Chapter 475, and the portion of the Bonds • issued to refund the Refunded Bonds are referred to as the "Refunding Bonds" and are issued pursuant to the Act and Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429 and Chapter 475 The allocation of the Bonds for this purpose is set forth in Section 2.01 hereof. 1.02. Sale of Bonds. The City has retained Ehlers & Associates, Inc., an independent financial advisor, to assist the City in connection with the sale of the Bonds. The Bonds are being sold pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.60, Subdivision 2, paragraph (9), without meeting the requirements for public sale under Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.60, Subdivision 1. Pursuant to the Terms and Conditions of Sale for the Bonds, six (6) proposals for the purchase of the Bonds were received at or before the time specified for receipt of proposals. The proposals have been opened and publicly read and considered, and the purchase price, interest rates and true interest cost under the terms of each bid have been determined. The most favorable proposal received is that of Piper Jaffray & Co., of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and associates (the "Purchaser"), to purchase the Bonds at a price of$11,883,501.90, the Bonds to bear interest at the rates set forth in Section 2.01.

The City presently has certain • outstanding obligations which constitute a lien on the net revenues of the Utilities. Such obligations permit further pledges and appropriations of net revenues of the Utilities to be made superior or subordinate to or on a parity with the pledge and appropriation of net revenues of the Utilities to pay such obligations. The City Council hereby determines that the estimated net revenues of the Utilities will be sufficient, together with any other sources pledged to or projected to be used, for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Utilities Bonds and such outstanding obligations which constitute a lien on the net revenues of the Utilities. All acts, conditions and things which are required by the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota to be done, to exist, to happen and to be performed precedent to and in the valid issuance of the Utilities Bonds having been done, existing, having happened and having been performed, it is now necessary for this Council to establish the form and terms of the Utilities Bonds, to provide security therefor and to issue the Utilities Bonds forthwith. 1.05.

[End of Bond Form.] 2.08. Use of Securities Depository; Book-Entry Only System. The provisions of this Section shall take precedence over the provisions of Sections 2.01 through 2.07 to the extent they are inconsistent therewith. (a) The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") has agreed to act as securities depository for the Bonds, and to provide a Book-Entry Only System for registering the ownership interest of the financial institutions for which it holds the Bonds (the "DTC Participants"), and for distributing to such DTC Participants such amount of the principal and interest payments on the Bonds as they are entitled to receive, for redistribution to the beneficial owners of the Bonds as reflected in their records (the "Beneficial Owners"). (b) Initially, and so long as DTC or another qualified entity continues to act as securities depository, the Bonds shall be issued in typewritten form, one for each maturity in a principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of each maturity, shall be registered in • the name of the securities depository or its nominee, shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 2.08, and no Beneficial Owner shall have the right to receive a certificate of ownership or printed Bond. While DTC is acting as the securities depository, the Bonds shall be registered in the name of the DTC's nominee, CEDE & CO; provided that upon delivery by DTC to the City and the Registrar of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of CEDE & CO., the words "CEDE & CO." in this Order shall refer to such new nominee of DTC. With respect to Bonds registered in the name of a securities depository or its nominee, the City and the Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any DTC Participant or Beneficial Owner with respect to the following: (i) the accuracy of the records of any securities depository or its nominee with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, (ii) the delivery to any DTC Participant or other person or any other person, other than DTC, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or(iii) the payment to any DTC Participant or any other person, other than DTC, of any amount with respect to the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds. The Registrar shall pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to or upon the order of DTC, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations with respect to the principal and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. So long as the Book-Entry Only System is in effect, no person other than DTC shall receive an authenticated Bond. • (c) Upon receipt by the City and the Registrar of written notice from the securities depository to the effect that it is unable or unwilling to discharge its responsibilities -12- • under the Book-Entry Only System, the Registrar shall issue, transfer and exchange Bonds of the initial series as requested by the securities depository in appropriate amounts, and whenever the securities depository requests the City and the Registrar istrar to do so the City and the Registrar shall cooperate with the securities depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice (i) to arrange for a substitute depository willing and able, upon reasonable and customary terms, to maintain custody of the Bonds, or(ii) to make available Bonds registered in whatever name or names the Beneficial Owner registering ownership transferring or exchanging such Bonds shall designate, in accordance with clause (f) or clause (g) below, whichever is applicable. (d) In the event the City determines that it is in the best interests of the Beneficial Owner that they be able to obtain printed Bonds, the City may so notify the securities depository and the Registrar, whereupon the securities depository shall notify the Beneficial Owners of the availability through the securities depository of such printed Bonds. In such event, the City shall cause to be prepared and the Registrar shall issue, transfer and exchange the printed Bonds fully executed and authenticated, as requested by the securities depository in appropriate amounts and, whenever the securities depository requests, the City and the Registrar shall cooperate with the securities depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice to make available printed Bonds registered on the Bond Register in whatever name or names the Beneficial Owners entitled to receive Bonds shall designate, in accordance with clause (f) or clause (g)below, whichever is applicable. (e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Resolution to the contrary, so • long as any Bond is registered in the name of a securities depository or its nominee, all payments of principal and interest on the Bond and all notices with respect to the Bond shall be made and given, respectively, to the securities depository. (f) In the event that the Book-Entry Only System established pursuant to this Section is discontinued, except as provided in clause (g), the Bonds shall be issued through the securities depository to the Beneficial Owners. (g) In the event of termination of the Book-Entry Only System, the City shall have the right to terminate, and shall take all steps necessary to terminate, all arrangements with the securities depository described herein, and thereafter shall issue, register ownership of, transfer and exchange all Bonds as provided in Section 2.03. Upon receipt by the securities depository of notice from the City, the securities depository shall take all actions necessary to assist the City and the Registrar in terminating all arrangements for the issuance of documents evidencing ownership interests in the Bonds through the securities depository.

Section 4. Bond Funds. 4.01. General Obligation Permanent Improvement Revolving Fund Bonds, Series 2012 Bond Fund.

If the aggregate balance in the Improvement Bond Fund is at any time insufficient to pay all interest and principal then due on all Improvement Bonds and Refunding 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 Permanent Improvement Revolving Fund when the balance therein is sufficient, and the City Council covenants and agrees that it will each year levy a sufficient amount of ad valorem taxes to take care of any accumulated or anticipated deficiency, which levy is not subject to any constitutional or statutory limitation. 4.02.

The City has previously levied special assessments against lots, tracts and parcels of land benefited by the improvements financed by the Refunded Bonds, in an aggregate principal amount not less than twenty percent (20%) of the cost of such improvements. The City hereby covenants and agrees that for payment of the cost of each of the Improvements it will do and perform all acts and things necessary for the full and valid levy of special assessments against all assessable lots, tracts and parcels of land benefited thereby and located within the area proposed to be assessed therefor, based upon the benefits received by each such lot, tract or parcel, in an aggregate principal amount not less than twenty percent (20%) of the cost of the Improvements. In the event that any such assessment shall be at any time held invalid with respect to any lot, piece or parcel of land, due to any error, defect or irregularity in any action or proceeding taken or to be taken by the City or this Council or any of the City's officers or employees, either in the making of such assessment or in the performance of any condition precedent thereto, the City and this Council hereby covenant and agree that they will forthwith do all such further acts and take all such further proceedings as may be required by law to make such assessments a valid and binding lien upon such property. • -15- • The Council presently estimates that the special assessments levied for payment of the cost of the Improvements shall be in the principal amount of$3,157,700 payable in not more than 15 installments, the first installment to be collectible with taxes during the year 2014, and that deferred installments shall bear interest at the rate of 3.24% per annum from the date of the resolution levying said assessment until December 31 of the year in which the installment is payable. 5.02.

Section 6. Imposition of Charges; Additional Bonds. The City hereby covenants and agrees with the holders from time to time of the Utilities Bonds that so long as any of the Utilities Bonds are outstanding, the City will impose and collect reasonable charges for the service, use and availability of the Utilities to the City and its inhabitants according to schedules calculated to produce net revenues which, will be sufficient to pay all principal and interest when due on the Utilities Bonds and all other obligations payable from the net revenues of the Utilities. • Net revenues of the Utilities, to the extent necessary, are hereby irrevocably pledged and appropriated to the payment of the principal of the Utilities Bonds and interest thereon; provided that nothing herein shall preclude the City from hereafter making further pledges and appropriations of net revenues of the Utilities for the payment of additional obligations of the City hereafter authorized if the City Council determines before the authorization of such additional obligations that the estimated net revenues of the Utilities will be sufficient, together with any other sources pledged to or projected to be used, for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Utilities Bonds and paid therefrom and such additional obligations. Such further pledges and appropriations of said net revenues may be made superior or subordinate to or on a parity with the pledge and appropriation herein made, as to the application of net revenues received from time to time.
