SECTION 3. FINDINGS.
and declared that:
It is hereby ascertained, determined
A. It is in the best interest of the Issuer and the residents
thereof that the Issuer authorize the issuance of Bonds to provide
for the refunding and refinancing of obligations heretofore issued
by the Issuer and to provide for the acquisition, construction and
design of the Series 1990 Project.
B. In order to preserve and protect the public health, safety
and welfare of the inhabitants of the Issuer, it is necessary and
desirable to acquire, construct and design the Series 1990 Project.
C. The revenues derived from the Public Service Taxes and
Local option Gas Tax are not now pledged or encumbered in any
manner, except for the payment of the Issuer's Refunded Bonds.
D. The Issuer deems it necessary, beneficial and in its best
interest to provide for the refunding of the Refunded Bonds. Such
refunding will be advantageous to the Issuer because it will allow
the Issuer to lengthen the amortization of the debt financed with
the proceeds of the Refunded Bonds to more closely match the life
of the improvements financed with such debt and will allow the
Issuer to revise certain terms and covenants in a manner that is
more beneficial to the Issuer.
E. The estimated sum required for the refunding of the
Refunded Bonds will be derived from a portion of the proceeds of
the sale of the Series 1990 Bonds, together with certain other
legally available funds of the Issuer.
F. A portion of the proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds shall
be deposited pursuant to the Agreement, in amounts which, together
with earnings thereon, will be sufficient to make timely payments
of the interest and outstanding principal in respect to the
Refunded Bonds to maturity. Such funds shall be invested pursuant
to the Agreement in such investments as will be sufficient to pay
such principal and interest.
G. The Bonds do not constitute a general indebtedness or
general obligation of the Issuer within the meaning of any consti-
tutional, statutory or charter provision or limitation, and the
Issuer has not pledged its full faith and credit for the payment
of the principal of, redemption premium, if any, and interest on
the Bonds or of the making of any reserve or other payments
11
.
provided for in this Resolution. It is expressly agreed by the
Holders of the Bonds that such Bondholders shall never have the
right to require or compel the exercise of the ad valorem taxing
power of the Issuer or taxation of any real or personal property
therein for the payment of the principal of, redemption premium,
if any, and interest on the Bonds or the making of any reserve or
other payments provided for in this Resolution.
H. The estimated Pledged Revenues will be sufficient to pay
all principal of and interest and redemption premium on the Series
1990 Bonds to be issued hereunder, as the same become due, and to
make all other deposits or other payments required by this Resolu-
tion.
I. The proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds deposited in the
Construction Fund may only be used for "transportation expendi-
tures" within the meaning of section 336.025(7), Florida Statutes.
J. The Series 1990 Bonds may be issued in one or more series
as shall be determined by subsequent resolution of the Issuer.
.
SECTION 4. AUTHORIZATION OF REFUNDING AND CONSTRUCTION OF

with the Clerk. The cost of such Series 1990 Project in addition
to the items set forth in such reports, may include, but need not
be limited to, the acquisition of any lands, rights of ways or
interest therein or any other properties deemed necessary or con-
venient therefor; engineering, legal and financing expenses,

tions and surveys; the fees of fiscal agents, financial advisors
or consultants; operating costs incurred during the construction;

trative expenses relating solely to the construction of the Series

period after the issuance of the Series 1990 Bonds; the creation
and establishment of reasonable reserves for debt service; the
discount on the sale of the Series 1990 Bonds, if applicable;
repayment of interim advances and indebtedness including repayments
to the other funds of the Issuer for moneys spent on the Series
1990 Project in anticipation of the sale of the Series 1990 Bonds;

to the financing herein authorized and the construction of the
Series 1990 Project and the placing of same in operation.
12
.
.
Provided, however, the Issuer reserves the right, if it be
found at the time of construction of the Series 1990 Project that
the amounts allocated for a portion thereof are inadequate there-
for, to allocate additional amounts from other portions of said
Series 1990 Project and, if it be found at the time of construction
of the Series 1990 Project that less than the amounts allocated to
certain purposes are needed for such purposes, to allocate the
amount so saved to other portions of the Series 1990 Project or,
if in the best interest of the Issuer it is deemed necessary and
advisable to change or delete any of the portions of the Series
1990 Project described above, to make such necessary changes or
deletions in such Series 1990 project as the Issuer deems necessary
so long as all said funds are used for the purposes provided by law
and this Resolution, and, to the extent used for construction
according to such reports of Professional Engineering Consultants,
Inc. or such other firm or firms of qualified consulting engineers
acceptable to the Issuer to be on file with the Issuer prior to
disbursement of such funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds deposited in the Construction
Fund may only be used for projects which constitute "transportation
expenditures" within the meaning of section 336.025(7), Florida
Statutes.

sideration of the acceptance of the Bonds authorized to be issued
hereunder by those who shall hold the same from time to time, this

between the Issuer and such Holders. The covenants and agreements

Date"), on the registration books of the Issuer hereinafter pro-
vided for as the Holder thereof, by check or draft mailed to such
Holder at his address as it appears on such registration books on
the Record Date. Payment of the principal of all Series 1990 Cur-
rent Interest Bonds and the Compounded Amount with respect to the
Series 1990 Capital Appreciation Bonds shall be made upon the
presentation and surrender at the office of the Paying Agent of
such Bonds as the same shall become due and payable.
SECTION 8. EXECUTION OF SERIES 1990 BONDS. The Series 1990
Bonds shall be signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of, the
Mayor and shall be signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of,
the Clerk and a facsimile of the official seal of the Issuer shall
be imprinted on the Bonds.
.
In case any officer whose signature or a facsimile of whose
signature shall appear on any Series 1990 Bond shall cease to be
such officer before the delivery of such Series 1990 Bond, such
signature or such facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and suffi-
14
.
.
cient for all purposes the same as if he has remained in office
until such delivery. Any Series 1990 Bond may bear the facsimile
signature of or may be signed by such persons who, at the actual
time of the execution of such Series 1990 Bond, shall be the proper
officers to sign such Series 1990 Bond although at the date of such
Series 1990 Bond such persons may not have been such officers.
SECTION 9. AUTHENTICATION OF SERIES 1990 BONDS. Only such
of the Series 1990 Bonds as shall have endorsed thereon a certi-
ficate of authentication substantially in the form hereinbelow set
forth, duly executed by the Registrar, as authenticating agent,
shall be entitled to any benefit or security under this Resolution.
No Series 1990 Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose
unless and until such certificate of authentication shall have been
duly executed by the Registrar, and such certificate of the Regis-
trar upon any such Series 1990 Bond shall be conclusive evidence
that such Series 1990 Bond has been duly authenticated and deliv-
ered under this Resolution. The Registrar's certificate of authen-
tication on any Series 1990 Bond shall be deemed to have been duly
executed if signed by an authorized officer of the Registrar, but
it shall not be necessary that the same officer sign the certifi-
cate of authentication of all of the Series 1990 Bonds that may be
issued hereunder at anyone time.
SECTION 10. EXCHANGE OF SERIES 1990 BONDS. Any Series 1990
Bond, upon surrender thereof at the principal corporate trust
office of the Registrar (or if the Clerk is the Registrar, at the
office of the Clerk), together with an assignment duly executed by
the Bondholder or his attorney or legal representative in such form
as shall be satisfactory to the Registrar, may, at the option of
the Bondholder, be exchanged for an aggregate principal amount of
Series 1990 Bonds equal to the principal amount and of the same
type of the Series 1990 Bond or Series 1990 Bonds so surrendered.
The Registrar shall make provision for the exchange of Bonds
at the principal corporate trust office of the Registrar (or if the
Clerk is the Registrar, at the office of the Clerk).
SECTION 11. NEGOTIABILITY, REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF
SERIES 1990 BONDS. The Registrar shall keep books for the regis-
tration of and for the registration of transfers of Series 1990
Bonds as provided in this Resolution. The transfer of any Series
1990 Bonds may be registered only upon such books and only upon
surrender thereof to the Registrar together with an assignment duly
executed by the Bondholder or his attorney or legal representative
in such form as shall be satisfactory to the Registrar. Upon any
such registration or transfer the Issuer shall execute and the
Registrar shall authenticate and deli ver in exchange for such
Series 1990 Bond, a new Series 1990 Bond or Series 1990 Bonds
registered in the name of the transferee, of the same maturity and
type and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal
15
.
.
amount of such Series 1990 Bond or Series 1990 Bonds so
surrendered.
In all cases in which Series 1990 Bonds shall be exchanged,
the Issuer shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver, at the earliest practicable time, a new Series 1990 Bond
or Series 1990 Bonds of the same maturity and of the same type
(i.e. Current Interest Bonds will be exchanged for Current Interest
Bonds and Capital Appreciation Bonds will be exchanged for Capital
Appreciation Bonds) in accordance with the provisions of this
Resolution. All Bonds surrendered in any such exchange shall
forthwith be canceled by the Registrar. The Issuer or the Regis-
trar may make a charge for every such exchange of Series 1990 Bonds
sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or other governmental charge
required to be paid with respect to such exchange, but no other
charge shall be made to any Bondholder for the privilege of
exchanging Series 1990 Bonds under the provisions of this Resolu-
tion. Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required to
make any such exchange of Series 1990 Bonds after the Record Date.
SECTION 12. OWNERSHIP OF SERIES 1990 BONDS. The person in
whose name any Series 1990 Bond shall be registered shall be deemed
and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and
payment of or on account of the principal or redemption price of
any such Series 1990 Bond, and the interest on any such Series 1990
Bond (or, in the case of the Capital Appreciation Bonds, Compounded
Amounts with respect thereto), shall be made only to or upon the
order of the registered owner thereof or his legal representative.
All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and
discharge the liability upon such Series 1990 Bond including the
premium, if any, and interest thereon to the extent of the sum or
sums so paid.
SECTION 13. SERIES 1990 BONDS MUTILATED, DESTROYED, STOLEN
OR LOST. In case any Series 1990 Bond shall become mutilated, or
be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Issuer may in its discretion
cause to be executed, and the Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver, a new Series 1990 Bond of like maturity, date and tenor
as the Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost (i.e., Current
Interest Bonds shall be issued in exchange for Current Interest
Bonds and Capital Appreciation Bonds shall be issued in exchange
for Capital Appreciation Bonds) in exchange and substitution for
such mutilated Series 1990 Bond upon surrender and cancellation of
such mutilated Series 1990 Bond or in lieu of and substitution for
the Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, and upon the Holder furnishing
the Issuer and the Registrar proof of his ownership thereof and
satisfactory indemnity and complying with such other reasonable
regulations and conditions as the Issuer and the Registrar may
prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer and the Registrar
may incur. All Series 1990 Bonds so surrendered shall be cancelled
by the Registrar. If any of the Series 1990 Bonds shall have
matured or be about to mature, instead of issuing a substitute
16
series 1990 Bond, the Paying Agent may pay the same, upon the
Issuer and Registrar being indemnified as aforesaid, and if such
Series 1990 Bond be lost, stolen or destroyed, without surrender
thereof.
.
Any such duplicate Series 1990 Bonds issued pursuant to this
section shall constitute original, additional contractual obliga-
tions on the part of the Issuer whether or not the lost, stolen or
destroyed Series 1990 Bonds be at any time found by anyone, and
such duplicate Series 1990 Bonds shall be entitled to equal and
proportionate benefits and rights as to lien on and source and
security for payment from the Pledged Revenues, to the same extent
as all other Series 1990 Bonds issued hereunder.
SECTION 14. PROVISIONS FOR REDEMPTION. The Series 1990 Bonds
shall be subject to redemption prior to their maturity at such
times and in such manner as shall be fixed by resolution of the
Issuer prior to or at the time of sale of the Series 1990 Bonds.
Notice of such redemption shall, at least thirty (30) days
prior to the redemption date, be filed with the Registrar, and
mailed, first class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Bonds
to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the registra-
tion books hereinbefore provided for, but failure to mail such
notice to one or more Holders of Bonds shall not affect the
validity of the proceedings for such redemption with respect to
Holders of Bonds to which notice was duly mailed hereunder. Each
such notice shall set forth the date fixed for redemption, the
redemption price to be paid and, if less than all of the Series
1990 Bonds of one maturity are to be called, the distinctive
numbers of such Series 1990 Bonds to be redeemed and in the case
of Series 1990 Bonds to be redeemed in part only, the portion of
the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.
.
In addition to the mailing of the notice described above, each
notice of redemption shall (i) be sent at least 35 days before the
redemption date and to the extent possible, at least two (2) days
prior to the general date of mailing by registered or certified
mail or overnight delivery service or telecopy to all registered
securities depositories then in the business of holding substantial
amounts of obligations of types comprising the Series 1990 Bonds
(such depositories now being The Depository Trust Company, New
York, New York, Midwest Securities Trust Company, chicago,
Illinois, and Philadelphia Depository Trust Company, Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania), and to two or more national information services
that disseminate notices of redemption of obligations such as the
Series 1990 Bonds and (ii) be published one time in The Bond Buyer,
New York, New York or, if such publication is impractical or
unlikely to reach a substantial number of the holders of the Series
1990 Bonds to be redeemed, in some other financial newspaper or
journal which regularly carries notices of redemption of other
obligations similar to the Series 1990 Bonds, such publication to
17
.
.
be made at least 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption;
provided, however, that failure of such notice or payment to comply
with the terms of this paragraph shall not in any manner defeat the
effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given
as otherwise prescribed above in this section. Upon the payment
of the redemption price of Series 1990 Bonds being redeemed, each
check or other transfer of funds issued for such purpose shall bear
the CUSIP number identifying, by issue and maturity, the Series
1990 Bonds being redeemed with the proceeds of such check or other
transfer. A second notice of redemption shall be mailed in the
manner provided above to any Bondholder who has not tendered Series
1990 Bonds that have been called for redemption within sixty (60)
days after the applicable redemption date.
Upon surrender of any Series 1990 Bond for redemption in part
only, the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to the Bond-
holder thereof, the cost of which shall be paid by the Issuer, a
new Series 1990 Bond of the same maturity and type and of an autho-
rized denomination equal to the unredeemed portion of the Series
1990 Bond surrendered.
SECTION 15. FORM OF SERIES 1990 BONDS. The text of the
Series 1990 Bonds shall be in substantially the following form,
with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be necessary
and desirable and authorized and permitted by this Resolution or
by any subsequent resolution adopted by the Issuer prior to the
issuance thereof:

SECTION 16. APPLICATION OF SERIES 1990 BOND PROCEEDS. The
proceeds, including accrued interest and premium, if any, received
from the sale of the Series 1990 Bonds shall be applied by the
Issuer simultaneously with the delivery of the Series 1990 Bonds
to the purchaser thereof, as follows:
.
A. The accrued interest, and at the option of the Issuer
interest to accrue on the Series 1990 Bonds in such amount and for
a period of time as shall be approved by subsequent resolution of
the Issuer, on the Series 1990 Bonds shall be deposited in the
Interest Account in the Debt Service Fund and shall be used only
for the purpose of paying interest becoming due on the Series 1990
Bonds.
B. Unless provided from other funds of the Issuer on the date
of issuance of the Series 1990 Bonds, or unless provided for
through the purchase of a guaranty or an insurance policy, an
irrevocable letter of credit, a surety bond, or similar credit
facility, or any combination thereof, the Issuer shall deposit to
the special subaccount in the Reserve Account established for the
benefit of the Series 1990 Bonds, a sum sufficient to equal the
Reserve Requirement on the Series 1990 Bonds.
C. To the extent not reimbursed therefor by the original
purchaser of any series of the Series 1990 Bonds, the Issuer shall
pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the issuance
of the Series 1990 Bonds.
D. A sum as specified by a supplemental resolution of the
Issuer shall, together with other legally available funds of the
Issuer, if any, as determined by subsequent resolution of the
Issuer, be used to defease the Refunded Bonds by depositing such
sums of money for investment in appropriate Acquired Obligations
pursuant to the Escrow Deposit Agreement so as to produce suffi-
cient funds to make all the payments described in such Escrow
Deposit Agreement. At the time of execution of such Escrow Deposit
Agreement, the Issuer shall furnish to the Escrow Agent named
therein appropriate documentation to demonstrate that the sums
being deposited and the investment to be made will be sufficient
for such purposes. Simultaneously with the issuance of the Series
1990 Bonds, the Issuer shall enter into an Agreement substantially
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A with the Escrow Agent.
Such escrowed funds shall be kept separate and apart from all other
funds of the Issuer and the moneys on deposit under the Agreement
shall be withdrawn, used and applied by the Issuer solely for the
purposes set forth in the Agreement.
.
E. The balance of the Series 1990 Bond proceeds after provid-
ing for the payments required by A, B, C and D above, shall be
deposited to the "City of Ocoee Transportation Refunding and
Improvement Revenue Bond Construction Fund" which fund is hereby
created and established and which may be used for the purposes set
29
.
.
forth herein. Such Construction Fund shall constitute a trust fund
and shall be used together with other legally available moneys by
the Issuer solely (i) to pay the cost of the Series 1990 Project,
including the reimbursement to the Issuer of moneys spent on the
Series 1990 Project in anticipation of the sale of and the issuance
of the Series 1990 Bonds and (ii) to make required deposits to the
Debt Service Fund in the event sufficient funds are not on deposit
therein on the required dates. The Issuer agrees and covenants to
commence and proceed with reasonable diligence and in good faith
to complete the construction of the Series 1990 Project. Upon the
completion of the Series 1990 Project, excess moneys on deposit in
the Construction Fund may be used by the Issuer for any lawful
purpose and shall be free from the pledge thereof and the lien
thereon in favor of the Holders of the Bonds; provided that in the
event the Issuer purposes to use amounts on deposit in the
Construction Fund for other than a transportation project, as
defined in section 336.025(7), Florida Statutes, the Issuer shall
have first received an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that
such use will not in and by itself, cause the interest on the
Series 1990 Bonds to be included in the gross income of the Holders
of such Series 1990 Bonds for purposes of Federal income taxation.
SECTION 17. SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF ISSUER. The Bonds shall
not be or constitute general obligations or indebtedness of the
Issuer as "bonds" within the meaning of the Constitution of
Florida, but shall be payable solely from and secured by a first
lien upon and a pledge of the Pledged Revenues as herein provided.
No Holder or Holders of any Bonds issued hereunder shall ever have
the right to compel the exercise of the ad valorem taxing power of
the Issuer or taxation in any form of any real or personal property
therein, or to compel the Issuer to pay such principal of, interest
and redemption premium, if any, from any other funds of the Issuer
except the Pledged Revenues.
The payment of the principal of, redemption premium, if any,
and interest on the Bonds shall be secured forthwith equally and
ratably by, and the Issuer hereby grants to the Bondholders an
irrevocable first lien on the Pledged Revenues, as defined herein,
prior and superior to all other liens or encumbrances on such
Pledged Revenues (except to the extent the Issuer has issued Public
Service Tax Obligations which shall have a parity lien on the
Public Service Taxes), and the Issuer does irrevocably pledge such
Pledged Revenues to the payment of the principal of and interest
and redemption premium, if any, on the Bonds, for the reserves
therefor and for all other required payments under this Resolution.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts on deposit in each respec-
tive subaccount in the Reserve Account shall only be applied for
the payment of principal of, redemption premium, if any, or inter-
est on the Outstanding series of Bonds for which such subaccount
was established and for no other series of Bonds.
30
.
The Holders of the Bonds shall have a prior lien upon the
Pledged Revenues superior to any claims of any kind in tort,
contract or otherwise, irrespective whether the parties possessing
such claims have notice hereof, in accordance with the provisions
hereof. The revenues and funds so pledged and hereafter received
by the Issuer shall immediately be subject to the lien of such
pledge without any physical delivery or further act.
SECTION 18. COVENANTS OF THE ISSUER. For so long as any of
the principal of and interest on any of the Bonds shall be Out-
standing and unpaid or until the Issuer has made provision for
payment of principal, interest and redemption premiums, if any,
with respect to the Bonds, as provided for in this section 18 or
as provided for in section 28 of this Resolution, the Issuer
covenants with the holders of any and all Series 1990 Bonds as
follows:
A. REVENUE FUND. All Local Option Gas Taxes shall upon
receipt thereof be deposited in the "City of Ocoee Transportation
Refunding and Improvement Revenue Bond Revenue Fund" (hereinafter
called the "Revenue Fund"), hereby created and established. All
deposits into such Revenue Fund shall be deemed to be held in trust
for the purposes herein provided and used only for the purposes and
in the manner herein provided.
The money remaining in the Revenue Fund, after making
provision for the payments into the Debt Service Fund, and the
various accounts therein, hereinafter created and established, so
long as all amounts required to be on deposit in the Debt Service
Fund shall be on deposit therein as of such date, shall be free
from the lien and pledge thereon in favor of the Holders of the
Bonds, and may be used by the Issuer for any lawful purpose.
B. DISPOSITION OF REVENUES. All amounts at any time remain-
ing on deposit in the Revenue Fund shall be disposed of on or
before the fifteenth (15th) day of each month commencing in the
month immediately following the delivery of the Series 1990 Bonds
only in the following manner and in the following order of
priority:
.
( 1) From the moneys in the Revenue Fund, the Issuer
shall first deposit into a separate fund designated "City of
Ocoee Transportation Refunding and Improvement Revenue Bond
Debt Service Fund" (hereinafter called the "Debt Service
Fund"), and credit to the following accounts within the Debt
Service Fund, each on a parity with each other (except as
otherwise provided in subsection (d) below), the following
identified sums:
(a) Into the Interest Account hereby created: Any
fees or charges of the Paying Agent or Registrar then due
together with such sum as will be sufficient, together with
31
.
the funds then on deposit therein, to pay one-sixth (1/6) of
all interest becoming due on the Bonds on the next semi-annual
interest payment date. The moneys in the Interest Account
shall be withdrawn and deposited with the Paying Agent for the
Bonds on or before each interest payment date in an amount
sufficient to pay the interest due on such date and the fees
and charges of the Paying Agent and Registrar then due. Such
monthly payments shall be increased or decreased
proportionately prior to the first interest payment date or
dates, after making allowance for any deposits made into the
Interest Account upon the issuance of each such series of
Bonds and for any amount transferred from other accounts
pursuant to the provisions of this Resolution.
(b) Into the Principal Account hereby created:
Beginning on the 15th day of the month which is twelve (12)
months prior to first principal maturity date and monthly
thereafter, such sum as will be sufficient, together with the
funds then on deposit therein, to pay one-twelfth (1/12) of
the principal (except the principal of which is required to
be paid from the Redemption Account hereinafter created and
established) and the Compounded Amounts on the Bonds maturing
or scheduled to be called for redemption on the next principal
maturity date. The moneys on deposit in the Principal Account
shall be withdrawn and deposited with the Paying Agent for
such Bonds on or before each principal maturity date in an
amount sufficient to pay the principal maturing on such date.
.
(c) Into the Redemption Account hereby created:
an amount sufficient to pay one-twelfth (1/ 12th) of any
Amortization Installment established by any subsequent
resolution of the Issuer. Provided, however, that monthly
deposits shall not be required to be made to the extent that
money on deposit in the Redemption Account is sufficient for
such purpose. Any monthly payment to be deposited as set
forth above, for the purpose of meeting Amortization Install-
ments shall be adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
frequency of dates established for Amortization Installments
applicable to such Bonds. The moneys in the Redemption
Account shall be used solely for the purchase or redemption
of the Term Bonds payable therefrom. The Issuer may at any
time purchase any of said Term Bonds at prices not greater
than the then redemption price of said Term Bonds. If the
Term Bonds are not then redeemable prior to maturity, the
Issuer may purchase said Term Bonds at prices not greater than
the redemption price of such Term Bonds on the next ensuing
redemption date. If the Issuer shall purchase or call for
redemption in any year Term Bonds, such Term Bonds so
purchased or redeemed shall be credited in such manner and at
such times as the Issuer shall determine.
32
.
Deposits in the Interest Account, the Principal Account and
the Redemption Account shall be increased or decreased on a pro
rata basis to reflect the number of months existing between the
issuance of each series of Bonds and the applicable principal,
interest and redemption payment dates in order to ensure adequate
funds are available in such funds on such dates for the purposes
described herein.
.
(d) The Issuer will initially provide for the
Reserve Requirement for the Series 1990 Bonds by the purchase
of a surety bond from MBIA pursuant to the terms of a Finan-
cial Guaranty Agreement between MBIA and the Issuer, the form
of which shall be approved by subsequent resolution of the
Issuer. The Issuer shall next deposit from moneys remaining
in the Revenue Fund an amount, if any, required by each
resolution authorizing the issuance of each series of Bonds
into each subaccount within the Reserve Account. Any with-
drawals from any subaccount in the Reserve Account shall be
subsequently restored from the first moneys available in the
Revenue Fund, on a pro rata basis as to all subaccounts in the
Reserve Account, after all current applications and alloca-
tions to the Debt Service Fund, including all deficiencies for
prior payments have been made in full. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Resolution to the contrary, in no event
shall the Issuer be required to deposit cash or moneys into
any subaccount in the Reserve Account in an amount greater
than that amount necessary to ensure that the difference
between the Reserve Requirement for the series of Bonds for
which such subaccount was established and the amounts on
deposit in such subaccount on the date of calculation shall
be restored not later than sixty (60) months after the initial
date of such deficiency (assuming equal monthly payments into
such account for such sixty (60) month period). The Issuer
may provide that the difference between the amounts on deposit
in such subaccount and the Reserve Requirement for such series
of Bonds shall be an amount covered by obtaining bond insur-
ance issued by a reputable and recognized municipal bond
insurer, by a surety bond, by a letter of creditor any
combination thereof or by such other form of credit enhance-
ment as shall be approved by subsequent resolution of the
Issuer authorizing the series of Bonds for which such
subaccount is established. In the event a subaccount in the
Reserve Account is funded with a combination of credit
enhancements, any drawings will be on a pro rata basis. Such
resolution may also provide for the substitution or replace-
ment of such credit enhancement or of amounts on deposit in
such subaccount. Moneys or other security on deposit in each
respective subaccount in the Reserve Account shall only be
applied for payment of principal of, redemption premium, if
any, or interest on the Outstanding series of Bonds for which
such subaccount was established and for no other series of
Bonds. Investments on deposit in each subaccount in the
33
.
Reserve Account shall be valued as determined by the resolu-
tion authorizing such series of Bonds for which such subac-
count was established. Investments, if any, on deposit in the
subaccount in the Reserve Account established for the Series
1990 Bonds shall be valued at cost. In the event of the
refunding of any series of Bonds, the Issuer may withdraw from
the subaccount within the Reserve Account for such series of
Bonds, all or any portion of the amounts accumulated therein
with respect to the Bonds being refunded and deposit such
amounts as required by the resolution authorizing the refund-
ing of such series of Bonds; provided that such withdrawal
shall not be made unless (a) immediately thereafter the Bonds
being refunded shall be deemed to have been paid pursuant to
section 28, and (b) the amount remaining in such subaccount
after giving effect to the issuance of such refunding obliga-
tions and the disposition of the proceeds thereof shall not
be less than the Reserve Requirement for any Bonds of that
series then Outstanding.
Cash, if any, on deposit in the subaccount in the Reserve
Account established for the Series 1990 Bonds will be drawn
down completely before any demand is made on the surety bond.
In the event it is necessary to draw on the surety bond, the
Paying Agent will deliver a demand for payment at least three
days prior to the date on which funds are required. The
Paying Agent will maintain accurate records, verified by MBIA
as to the amount available to be drawn under the surety bond
and as to the amounts paid and owing to MBIA under the terms
of the Financial Guaranty Agreement. Any amounts owing to
MBIA will be reimbursed before cash is replenished in the
subaccount in the Reserve Account established for the Series
1990 Bonds.
The Issuer agrees to payor to cause to be paid, solely
from the Pledged Revenues (which pledge shall be junior,
inferior and subordinate in all respects to the lien thereon
in favor of the Holders of the Bonds and the holders of any
Public Service Tax Obligations), all amounts, including
interest due thereon, due MBIA under the terms of the
Financial Guaranty Agreement. All such amounts due MBIA must
be paid before this Resolution can be defeased pursuant to
section 28 of this Resolution. There may be no optional
redemption or refunding of Bonds or distribution of Pledged
Revenues to the Issuer unless all amounts owed to MBIA under
the terms of the Financial Guaranty Agreement have been paid.
.
(2) Upon the issuance of any Additional Parity Obliga-
tions under the terms, limitations and conditions as are
herein provided, the payments into the several accounts in the
Debt Service Fund, excluding the Reserve Account which shall
be increased as determined by the resolution of the Issuer
authorizing such Additional Parity Obligations, shall be
34
increased in such amounts as shall be necessary to make the
payment for the principal of, redemption premium, if any, and
interest on for such Additional Parity Obligations on the same
basis as hereinabove provided with respect to the Bonds issued
under this Resolution.
.
(3) The Issuer shall not be required to make any further
deposits into the Debt Service Fund in any month to the extent
the monthly deposits into the Debt Service Fund, including the
Reserve Account therein, required by this section 18(B) have
been made by the Issuer and no def iciency exists in any
account in the Debt Service Fund.
(4) The balance of any moneys remaining in the Revenue
Fund after the above required payments have been made shall
be free from the lien and pledge thereon in favor of the
Holders of the Bonds and may be used for any lawful purpose;
provided, however, that none of said money shall be released
from said lien and pledge, nor shall said money be used for
any purposes other than those hereinabove specified unless all
payments required to have been made by such time under this
Resolution, including any deficiencies for prior payments,
have been made in full and unless no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing.
No further deposit shall be required to any of the
accounts in the Debt Service Fund when sufficient moneys are
on deposit in the accounts within the Debt Service Fund to pay
the principal, interest, and redemption premium, if any, on
all Bonds at maturity.
(5) The Debt Service Fund (including the accounts and
the subaccounts therein), the Revenue Fund, the Public Service
Taxes Fund and any other special funds herein established and
created shall be deemed to be held in trust for the purposes
provided herein for such funds. The money in all such funds
shall be continuously secured in the same manner as state and
municipal deposits are authorized to be secured by the laws
of the State of Florida.
.
Moneys on deposit in the Construction Fund, the Revenue
Fund, the Public Service Taxes Fund and the Debt Service Fund,
excluding the Reserve Account, may be invested and reinvested
in Investment Securities which mature not later than the dates
on which the moneys on deposit therein will be needed for the
purpose of such fund. Moneys in each subaccount in the
Reserve Account, if any, may be invested and reinvested in
Investment Securities maturing not later than the latest
maturity date of any Bond for which such subaccount was estab-
lished. All income on such investments, except for income on
investments in the Reserve Account and the Construction Fund,
shall be deposited in the respective funds and accounts from
35
.
which such investments were made and be used for the purposes
thereof unless and until the amount required to be on deposit
is on deposit therein, and thereafter shall be deposited in
the Revenue Fund. Investment income on each subaccount in the
Reserve Account shall be deposited and credited as determined
by subsequent resolution of the Issuer adopted prior to the
series of Bonds for which such subaccount is established.
Investment income earned on the Construction Fund shall remain
on deposit in the Construction Fund and shall be used solely
for the purposes set forth in sections 4 and 16E of this
Resolution.
(6) In determining the amount of any of the payments
required to be made pursuant to this section 18(B), credit
shall be given for all investment income accruing to the
respective funds and accounts described herein.
(7) The moneys and Investment Securities required to be
accounted for in each of the funds, accounts and subaccounts
described in this section 18 may be deposited in a single bank
account, provided that adequate accounting records are main-
tained to reflect and control the restricted allocation of the
cash on deposit therein for the various purposes of such funds
and accounts as herein provided. The designation and estab-
lishment of the various funds in and by this Resolution shall
not be construed to require the establishment of any com-
pletely independent, selfbalancing funds as such term is
commonly def ined and used in governmental accounting, but
rather is intended solely to constitute an earmarking of
certain revenues and assets of the Issuer for certain purposes
and to establish certain priorities for application of such
revenues and assets as herein provided.
(8) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
herein, nothing in this Resolution shall be construed as
preventing the Issuer from voluntarily depositing to the
credit of any account in the Debt Service Fund moneys received
from any legally available source other than the Pledged
Revenues, but the Issuer shall have no obligation, directly
or indirectly, to make deposits to the Debt Service Fund from
any funds of the Issuer other than the Pledged Revenues.
.
C. ISSUANCE OF OTHER OBLIGATIONS. The Issuer shall issue no
bonds or obligations of any kind or nature payable from or enjoying
a lien on the Pledged Revenues if such obligations have priority
over the Series 1990 Bonds with respect to payment or lien, nor
shall the Issuer create or cause or permit to be created any debt,
lien, pledge, assignment, encumbrance or other charge having
priority to or being on a parity with the lien of the Series 1990
Bonds upon said Pledged Revenues; provided, however, the Issuer may
issue Additional Parity Obligations under the conditions and in the
manner provided in section 18D hereof and may issue Public Service
36
.
Tax Obligations under the conditions and in the manner provided in
Section 18E hereof. Any obligations of the Issuer, other than the
Series 1990 Bonds, Additional Parity Obligations and Public Service
Tax Obligations, which are payable from the Pledged Revenues shall
contain an express statement that such obligations are junior and
subordinate in all respect to the Bonds as to lien on and source
and security for payment from such Pledged Revenues.
D. ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL PARITY OBLIGATIONS. No Additional
Parity obligations, payable on a parity from the Pledged Revenues
with the Bonds herein authorized, shall be issued after the
issuance of any Bonds herein authorized, except upon the conditions

which the Additional Parity obligations are proposed to be
issued or (ii) two of the last three full Fiscal Years
immediately preceding the Fiscal Year in which the Additional
Parity Obligations are proposed to be issued shall have been

Public Service Taxes, for such period may be adjusted to
include the estimated Local Option Gas Taxes or Public Service

Service Taxes shall upon receipt thereof be deposited in the City
of Ocoee Transportation Refunding and Improvement Revenue Bond
Public Service Taxes Fund which fund is hereby created and estab-
lished. All deposits into such Public Service Taxes Fund shall be

Taxes Fund the required amounts needed to make the above
stated payments, including any deficiencies for prior pay-
ments. Such payments shall be on a parity with any corres-
39

lected and any holder of Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution
shall have the right at all reasonable times to inspect all
records, accounts and data of the Issuer relating thereto.
The Issuer shall, at least once a year, cause the books,
records and accounts relating to the collection of the Pledged
Revenues to be properly audited in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards applicable to public bodies such as
the Issuer, by a firm of independent certified public accountants,

accountants at all reasonable times to any holder or holders of
the Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution or anyone acting for

copy of such report to the original purchaser of the Bonds. Such
audit may be incorporated into and made a part of the annual audit
of the Issuer required by Florida law.
H. LEVY OF PLEDGED REVENUES. The Issuer will not repeal or
adversely amend its Charter, ordinances, resolutions or interlocal
agreements relating to the Pledged Revenues so as to impair the

steps, actions and proceedings for the enforcement and collection
of such Pledged Revenues as shall become delinquent to the full
extent permitted or authorized by law; and will maintain accurate
40
.
.
records with respect thereof. All such Pledged Revenues herein
pledged shall, as collected, be held in trust to be applied as
herein provided and not otherwise.
K. RELEASE OF PUBLIC SERVICE TAXES. Notwi thstanding any
provision of this Resolution to the contrary, the lien of and
pledge of the Public Service Taxes in favor of the Holders of the
Bonds shall be released and extinguished upon receipt by the Issuer
of a certificate or an opinion of an independent certified public
accountant which certifies or opines, as applicable, that the Local
option Gas Tax received by the Issuer during each of the two
preceding complete Fiscal Years shall have been equal to not less
than 135% of the Maximum Bond Service Requirement on the Outstand-
ing Bonds as of the date of such certificate or opinion. The
Issuer will provide written notification of such release to the
Bond Insurer. No release shall become effective if the Issuer
shall owe moneys to MBIA under the terms of the Financial Guaranty
Agreement referred to in section 18B(1) (d) hereof.
SECTION 19. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The following events shall
each constitute an "Event of Default":

redemption premium or interest on any Bond when due.
(B) There shall occur the dissolution or liquidation of the
Issuer, or the filing by the Issuer of a voluntary petition in
bankruptcy, or the commission by the Issuer of any act of bank-
ruptcy, or adjudication of the Issuer as a bankrupt, or assignment
by the Issuer for the benefit of its creditors, or appointment of
a receiver for the Issuer, or the entry by the Issuer into an
agreement of composition with its creditors, or the approval by a
court of competent jurisdiction of a petition applicable to the
Issuer in any proceeding for its reorganization instituted under
the provisions of the Federal Bankruptcy Act, as amended, or under
any similar act in any jurisdiction which may now be in effect or
hereafter enacted.
(C) The Issuer shall default in the due and punctual perfor-
mance of any other of the covenants, conditions, agreements and
provisions contained in the Bonds or in this Resolution on the part
of the Issuer to be performed, and such default shall continue for
a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of such default
shall have been received from the Holders of not less than twenty-
five percent (25%) of the aggregate principal amount of Bonds
outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not
be deemed in default hereunder if such default can be cured within
a reasonable period of time and if the Issuer in good faith
institutes curative action and diligently pursues such action until
the default has been corrected.

SECTION 20. REMEDIES. Any Holder of Bonds issued under the
provisions of this Resolution or any trustee or receiver acting for
such Bondholders may either at law or in equity, by suit, action,
mandamus or other proceedings in any court of competent jurisdic-
tion, protect and enforce any and all rights under the laws of the
State of Florida, or granted and contained in this Resolution, and
may enforce and compel the performance of all duties required by
this Resolution or by any applicable statutes to be performed by
the Issuer or by any officer thereof.
The Holder or Holders of Bonds in an aggregate principal
amount of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Bonds then
Outstanding may by a duly executed certificate in writing appoint
a trustee for Holders of Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution
with authority to represent such Bondholders in any legal proceed-
ings for the enforcement and protection of the rights of such Bond-
holders and such certificate shall be executed by such Bondholders
or their duly authorized attorneys or representatives, and shall
be filed in the office of the Clerk. Notice of such appointment,
together with evidence of the requisite signatures of the Holders
of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal
amount of Bonds Outstanding and the trust instrument under which
the trustee shall have agreed to serve shall be filed with the
Issuer and the trustee and notice of appointment shall be given to
all Holders of Bonds in the same manner as notices of redemption
are given hereunder. No more than one trustee may at anyone time
be appointed to represent such Bondholders; however, the Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Bonds then
Outstanding may remove the trustee then serving and appoint a
successor and subsequent successors at any time.
SECTION 21. DIRECTIONS TO TRUSTEE AS TO REMEDIAL PRO-
CEEDINGS. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Bonds then Outstanding have the right, by an instrument or con-
current instruments in writing executed and delivered to the
trustee, to direct the method and place of conducting all remedial
proceedings to be taken by the trustee hereunder, provided that
such direction shall not be otherwise than in accordance with law
or the provisions hereof, and that the trustee shall have the right
to decline to follow any such direction which in the opinion of the
trustee would be unjustly prejudicial to Holders of Bonds not
parties to such direction.
SECTION 22. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No remedy herein conferred
upon or reserved to the Bondholders is intended to be exclusive of
any other remedy or remedies, and each and every such remedy shall
be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of this Resolu-
tion to the contrary, the remedies granted to the Holders of the
42
Bonds or any trustee acting on behalf of such Holders shall not
include the power to accelerate the principal of and the redemption
premiums, if any, on the Bonds.
.
SECTION 23. WAIVER OF DEFAULT. No delay or omission of any
Bondholder to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default
shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be
a waiver of any such default, or an acquiescence therein; and every
power and remedy given by this Resolution to the Bondholders may
be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed
expedient.
SECTION 24. APPLICATION OF MONEYS AFTER DEFAULT. If an Event
of Default shall happen and shall not have been remedied, the
Issuer or a trustee or receiver appointed for the purpose shall
apply all Pledged Revenues as follows and in the following order:
(A) To the payment of the reasonable and proper charges,

facility and such Bonds are then rated in as high a rating category
as the rating category in which such Bonds were rated at the time
of initial issuance and deliver thereof by either Standard & Poor's
Corporation or Moody's Investor Service, Inc., or successors and
assigns, then the consent of the issuer of such municipal bond
insurance policy or the issuer of such similar credit facility
shall be deemed to constitute the consent of the Holder of such
Bonds, as applicable. Notwithstanding any provision of this
section to the contrary, no modification or amendment shall permit
a change in the maturity of the Bonds or a reduction in the rate
of interest thereon or in the amount of the principal obligation
thereof or affecting the promise of the Issuer to pay the principal
of and interest on the Bonds as the same shall become due from the
Pledged Revenues or reduce the percentage of the Holders of the
Bonds required to consent to any material modification or amendment
hereof without the consent of the Holder or Holders of all the
Bonds then outstanding. No such modif ication or amendment pursuant
to this section 25 shall be made without the consent of the Bond
Insurer provided however, the consent of such Bond Insurer shall
not be required if such Bond Insurer shall then be in default under
its policy of municipal bond insurance. Copies of any such
amendment consented to by MBIA shall be sent to S&P.
.
SECTION 26. MODIFICATION OR AMENDMENTS WITHOUT CONSENT. The
Issuer, from time to time and at any time and without the consent
of concurrence of any Holder of any Bonds, may adopt a resolution
amendatory hereof or supplemental hereto, if the provisions of such
supplemental resolution shall not adversely affect the rights of
the Holders of the Bonds then Outstanding, for anyone or more of
the fOllowing purposes:
44
.
A. To make any changes or corrections in this Resolution as
to which the Issuer shall have been advised by counsel are required
for the purpose of curing or correcting any ambiguity or defective
or inconsistent provisions or omission or mistake or manifest error
contained in this Resolution, or to insert in this Resolution such
provisions clarifying matters or questions arising under this Reso-
lution as are necessary or desirable;
B. To add additional covenants and agreements of the Issuer
for the purpose of further securing the payments of the Bonds;
C. To surrender any right, power or privilege reserved to or
conferred upon the Issuer by the terms of this Resolution;
D. To confirm as further assurance any lien, pledge or
charge, or the subjection to any lien, pledge or charge, created
or to be created by the provisions of this Resolution;
E. To grant to or confer upon the Holders any additional
right, remedies, powers, authority or security that lawfully may
be granted to or conferred upon them;
F. To authorize the issuance of Additional Bonds;
G. To assure compliance with Federal "arbitrage" provisions
in effect from time to time; and
H. To maintain the exclusion of interest from gross income
of the Holders of the Bonds, other than Bonds, the interest on
which is taxable for purposes of Federal income taxation.
The Issuer shall not adopt any supplemental resolution autho-
rized by the foregoing provisions of this section unless in the
opinion of Bond Counsel the adoption of such supplemental resolu-
tion is permitted by the foregoing provisions of this section.
The Issuer shall, at its option, be entitled to rely
conclusively upon an opinion of Bond Counsel with respect to
whether the adoption of any supplemental resolution is permitted
pursuant to this Section.
.
SECTION 27. HOLDERS NOT AFFECTED BY USE OF PROCEEDS. The
Holders of the Bonds shall have no responsibility for the use of
the proceeds thereof, and the use of such proceeds by the Issuer
shall in no way affect the rights of such Holders. The Issuer
shall be irrevocably obligated to continue to levy and collect the
Pledged Revenues as provided herein and to pay the principal of and
interest on the Bonds and to make all reserve and other payments
provided for herein from the Pledged Revenues notwithstanding any
failure of the Issuer to use and apply such proceeds in the manner
provided herein.
45
.
.
SECTION 28. DEFEASANCE. If, at any time, the Issuer shall
have paid, or shall have made provision for payment of, the prin-
cipal, interest and redemption premiums, if any, with respect to
the Bonds, then, and in that event, the pledge of and lien on the
Pledged Revenues, in favor of the holders of the Bonds shall be no
longer in effect. For purposes of the preceding sentence, deposit
of sufficient cash and/or principal of Acquired Obligations in an
irrevocable trust with a banking institution or trust company, for
the sole benefit of the Bondholders, which together with income on
such Acquired Obligations will be sufficient to make timely payment
of the principal, interest, and redemption premiums, if any, on the
Outstanding Bonds as they come due, whether at maturity or the date
fixed for redemption, shall be considered "provision for payment."
Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Issuer to call any
of the Outstanding Bonds for redemption prior to maturity pursuant
to any applicable optional redemption provisions, or to impair the
discretion of the Issuer in determining whether to exercise any
such option for early redemption.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all references to the discharge
and satisfaction of Bonds shall include the discharge and satisfac-
tion of any issue or series of Bonds, any portion of an issue or
series of Bonds, any maturity or maturities of an issue or series
of Bonds, any portion of a maturity of an issue or series of Bonds
or any combination of the foregoing.
SECTION 29. TAX COVENANT. No use will be made of the pro-
ceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds which, if such use were reasonably
expected on the date of issuance of the Series 1990 Bonds, would
cause the same to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Issuer at all times
while the Series 1990 Bonds and the interest thereon are outstand-
ing will comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended, and any valid and applicable rules and regula-
tions promulgated thereunder necessary to maintain the exclusion
of the interest on the Series 1990 Bonds from federal gross income
including the creation of any rebate funds or other funds and/or
accounts required in that regard.
The Issuer shall at all times do and perform all acts and
things permitted by law and this Resolution which are necessary or
desirable in order to assure that interest paid on the Series 1990
Bonds will be excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes and shall take no action that would result in such inter-
est not being excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes.
In order to insure compliance with the rebate provisions of
section 148{f) of the Code with respect to the Series 1990 Bonds
the Issuer hereby creates the Rebate Fund to be held by the
Trustee. The Rebate Fund need not be maintained if the Issuer
shall have received an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that
46
.
failure to create the Rebate Fund shall not adversely affect the
exclusion of interest on such Series 1990 Bonds from gross income
for purposes of Federal income taxation. Moneys in the Rebate Fund
shall not be considered Pledged Revenues and shall not be pledged
in any manner for the benefit of the holders of the Series 1990
Bonds. Moneys in the Rebate Fund (including earnings and deposits
therein) shall be held for future payment to the united States
Government as required by the united States Treasury Regulations
and as set forth in instructions of Bond Counsel delivered to the
Issuer upon issuance of the Series 1990 Bonds.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Resolution to the
contrary, to the extent the Issuer is required to make deposits to
the Rebate Fund, such amounts may be taken from any fund or account
created hereunder.
SECTION 30. SEVERABILITY OF INVALID PROVISIONS. If anyone
or more of the covenants, agreements or provisions herein contained
shall be held contrary to any express provision of law or contrary
to the policy of express law, though not expressly prohibited, or
against public policy, or shall for any reason whatsoever be held
invalid, then such covenants, agreements or provisions shall be
null and void and shall be deemed separable from the remaining
covenants, agreements or provisions and shall in no way affect the
validity of any of the other provisions hereof or of the Bonds
issued hereunder.
SECTION 31. CAPITAL APPRECIATION BONDS. For the purposes of
(i) receiving payment of the redemption price of a Capital Appre-
ciation Bond if redeemed prior to maturity, (ii) computing Bond
Service Requirement, and (iii) computing the amount of Holders
required for any notice, consent, request or demand hereunder for
any purpose whatsoever, the principal amount of a Capital Appre-
ciation Bond shall be deemed to be its Compounded Amounts as of the
date on which the payment is due, or the computation is made.
SECTION 32. NOTICES TO MBIA. For so long as the Series 1990
Bonds are outstanding, MBIA will be furnished a copy of all sig-
nificant notices with respect to this Resolution or the Bonds as
follows:

tions and applicable to obligations issued on such date.

ments (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) of

comply with its duties required hereunder, and its negligent or
willful acts, omissions or errors hereunder. The duties and obli-

visions of this Agreement. The Escrow Holder may consult with
counsel, who mayor may not be counsel to the Issuer, and in reli-
ance upon the opinion of such counsel shall have full and complete
