any redemption date, the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent shall cause a notice of any such
redemption to be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered owner of each

then Depository, the Town and the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent shall permit
withdrawal of the Bonds from the Depository and authenticate and deliver the Bond

assignees of the Depository or its nominee. Such withdrawal, authentication and delivery

or any other notices required to be given to registered owners of Bonds only to the
Depository or its nominee registered as the owner thereof. Any failure of the Depository
to advise any of its participants, or of any participant to notify the Beneficial Owner, of
any such notice and its content or effect shall not affect the validity of the redemption of
the Bonds to be redeemed or of any other action premised on such notice. Neither the
Town nor the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent shall be responsible or liable for the
failure of the Depository or any participant thereof to make any payment or give any
notice to a Beneficial Owner in respect of the Bonds or any error or delay relating
thereto.
(5) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution or
the Bonds to the contrary, so long as the Bonds are subject to a Book-Entry System, it
shall not be necessary for the registered owner to present the applicable Bond for
payment of mandatory redemption installments, if any. The mandatory redemption
installments may be noted on books kept by the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent and the
Depository for such purpose, and the Bonds shall be tendered to the Bond Registrar and

of the sale of the Bonds, the Finance Director of the Town shall invest the proceeds of the Bonds
deposited to the Construction Fund as permitted by law. Upon the completion of construction of

not expected to be used to pay the final amounts owed to the Contractor or for the payment of
interest or the payment of final incidental expenses and condemnation costs and expenses shall,
except to the extent returned to owners of property in the District who have heretofore made cash
payments to the Town, be transferred to the principal account of the Special Fund and be applied

authorized to execute, and the Clerk of the Town to attest and deliver, the Bond Purchase
Agreement, for and on behalf of the Mayor and Common Council of the Town, in substantially
the form submitted to them at the meeting at which this Resolution was adopted and in a final
form satisfactory to the Mayor, or in the absence thereof, Vice Mayor of the Town, and such

of the Mayor and Common Council ofthe Town by the Mayor or Vice Mayor of the Town.

respects hereby ratified, approved and confirmed, and the Mayor, or in the absence thereof, Vice
Mayor of the Town is hereby authorized to deem the same "final" for purposes of applicable
securities laws when finalized.
(2) The Underwriter is authorized to cause to be prepared, and
the Mayor, or in the absence thereof, Vice Mayor of the Town is authorized and directed to
approve, on behalf of the Mayor and Common Council of the Town, and the Mayor or Vice
Mayor of the Town to execute and deliver, a final Official Statement in substantially the form of

the Town shall be conclusively deemed to evidence the approval of the status, form and contents
thereofby the Mayor and Common Council ofthe Town.

continuing disclosure undertaking, to be dated the date of initial issuance of the Bonds (the
"Undertaking"), with respect to the Bonds which the Mayor, or in the absence thereof, Vice
Mayor of the Town is hereby authorized, for and on behalf of the Mayor and Common Council
of the Town, to execute, and the Clerk of the Town to attest and deliver, in substantially the form
included in the Preliminary Official Statement, with such additions, deletions and modifications
as shall be approved by the Manager of the Town, and such execution and delivery shall
constitute evidence of the approval of such officer of any departures from the form included in
the Preliminary Official Statement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution,
failure of the City (if obligated pursuant to the Undertaking) to comply with the Undertaking
shall not be considered an event of default; however, any Beneficial Owner (as such term is here-
inafter defined) may take such actions as may be necessary and appropriate, including seeking
specific performance by court order, to cause the District to comply with its obligations under
this Section. For purposes of this Section, "Beneficial Owner" means any person which (a) has
the power, directly or indirectly, to vote or consent with respect to, or to dispose of ownership of,
any Bonds or Certificates (including persons holding Bonds or Certificates through nominees,

is defined in Section 148 (or any successor provision thereto) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, or "private activity bonds" as that term is defined in Section 141 (or any
successor provision thereto) of such Code, and the requirements of such Code sections and
related regulations shall be complied with throughout the term of the Bonds. The procedures and
covenants contained in any arbitrage rebate provision or separate agreement executed in
connection with the issuance of the Bonds shall be complied with for so long as compliance is
necessary in order to maintain the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes
14

holders from time to time thereof and of retaining such exclusion and as authorized by Title 35,
Chapter 3, Article 7, Arizona Revised Statutes, as amended, the Mayor and Common Council of
the Town covenants, and the appropriate officials of the Town are hereby directed, to take all
action required to preserve such exclusion or to refrain from taking any action prohibited by such
Code which would adversely affect in any respect such exclusion.
(B) All necessary and desirable steps to comply with the requirements
hereunder in order to ensure that interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal
income tax purposes under such Code shall be taken; provided, however, compliance with any
such requirement shall not be required in the event the Town receives a Bond Counsel's Opinion
(as such term is defined in the next section) that either (i) compliance with such requirement is
not required to maintain the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds, or
(ii) compliance with some other requirement will meet the requirements of such Code. In the
event the Town receives such a Bond Counsel's Opinion, this Resolution shall be amended to
conform to the requirements set forth in such opinion.

disposed of for a price that is not equal to its fair market value.

from or sold or disposed of directly to the United States Treasury, such
acquisition or sale or disposition shall be treated as establishing the fair market
value of the obligation.
(F) The purchase price of a certificate of deposit that has a fixed
interest rate, a fixed payment schedule and a substantial penalty for early withdrawal is
considered to be its fair market value if the yield on the certificate of deposit is not less than:

guaranteed investment contract, including all material terms, is timely forwarded
to all potential providers. The solicitation must include a statement that the
submission of a bid is a representation that the potential provider did not consult
with any other potential provider about its bid, that the bid was determined
without regard to any other formal or informal agreement that the potential
provider has with the Town or any other person (whether or not in connection
with the Bonds), and that the bid is not being submitted solely as a courtesy to the
Town or any other person for purposes of satisfying the requirements in the
Regulations that the Town receive bids from at least one reasonably competitive

with no potential provider having the opportunity to review other bids before
providing a bid.

an established industry reputation as a competitive provider of the type of
investments being purchased) are solicited for bids. At least three bids must be
received from providers that have no material financial interest in the Bonds (e.g.,
a lead underwriter within 15 days of the issue date of the Bonds or a financial
advisor with respect to the investment) and at least one of such three bids must be
from a reasonably competitive provider. If the Town uses an agent to conduct the
bidding, the agent may not bid.
(4) The highest-yielding guaranteed investment contract for
which a qualifying bid is made (determined net of broker's fees) is purchased.
(5) The determination of the terms of the guaranteed
investment contract takes into account as a significant factor the reasonably
expected deposit and drawdown schedule for the amounts to be invested.
(6) The terms for the guaranteed investment contract are
commercially reasonable (i.e. have a legitimate business purpose other than to
increase the purchase price or reduce the yield of the guaranteed investment
contract).

certification described in (7) above, (iii) the name of the person and entity
submitting each bid, the time and date of the bid, and the bid results and (iv) the
bid solicitation form and, if the terms of the guaranteed investment contract
18
deviates from the bid solicitation form or a submitted bid is modified, a brief
statement explaining the deviation and stating the purpose of the deviation.

necessary, any calculations in respect of rebates to be made to the United States of America in
accordance with Section 148(t) ofthe Code with respect to the Bonds, is hereby authorized.

modifications of this Resolution shall be made which shall in any manner impair, impede or
lessen the rights of the registered owners of the Bonds then outstanding.
Section 10. After the issuance and delivery of the Bonds, this Resolution shall be
and remain irrepealable until the Bonds and the interest thereon shall have been fully paid,
cancelled and discharged.
