Bond has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Resolution. The form of such
certificate shall be substantially in the form provided in Section 2.10 hereof.
SECTION 2.06 Temporary Bonds.
Until the definitive Bonds of any Series are prepared, the Issuer may execute, in the
same manner as is provided in Section 2.04 hereof, and deliver, upon authentication by the

of which such temporary Bond or Bonds are issued, in denominations authorized by the Issuer
by Supplemental Resolution, and with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be
appropriate to temporary Bonds. The Issuer, at its own expense, shall prepare and execute
definitive Bonds, which shall be authenticated by the Registrar. Upon the surrender of such
temporary Bonds for exchange, the Registrar, without charge to the Holder thereof, shall deliver
in exchange therefor definitive Bonds, of the same aggregate principal amount and Series and
maturity as the temporary Bonds surrendered. Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds shall

conditions as the Issuer or the Registrar may prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer
and the Registrar may incur. All Bonds so surrendered or otherwise substituted shall be
canceled by the Registrar. If any of the Bonds shall have matured or be about to mature, instead
of issuing a substitute Bond, the Issuer may pay the same or cause the Bond to be paid, upon
being indemnified as aforesaid, and if such Bonds be lost, stolen or destroyed, without
surrender thereof.

Any such duplicate Bonds issued pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall constitute original,
additional contractual obligations on the part of the Issuer whether or not the lost, stolen or
destroyed Bond be at any time found by anyone, and such duplicate Bond shall be entitled to
equal and proportionate benefits and rights as to lien on the Pledged Funds to the same extent
as all other Bonds issued hereunder.

Bonds, upon surrender thereof at the office of the Registrar with a written instrument of
transfer satisfactory to the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holder's
attorney duly authorized in writing, may, at the option of the Holder thereof, be exchanged for

such Bond, the Issuer shall issue, and cause to be authenticated, ih the name of the transferee a
new Bond or Bonds of the same aggregate principal amount and Series and maturity as the
surrendered Bond. The Issuer, the Registrar and any Paying Agent or fiduciary of the Issuer
may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Outstanding Bond shall be registered upon
the books of the Issuer 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 or Redemption
Price, if applicable, and interest on such Bond and for all other purposes, and all such payments
so made to any such Holder or upon such Holder's order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy
and discharge the liability upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid and neither
the Issuer nor the Registrar nor any Paying Agent or other fiduciary of the Issuer shall be
affected by any notice to the contrary.
The Registrar, in any case where it is not also the Paying Agent in respect to any Series
of Bonds, forthwith (A) following the fifteenth day prior to an Interest Date for such Series; (B)
following the fifteenth day next preceding the date of first mailing of notice of redemption of
any Bonds of such Series; and (C) at any other time as reasonably requested by the Paying

exercised, the Issuer shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver such Bonds in
accordance with the provisions of this Resolution. Execution of Bonds pursuant to Section 2.04
hereof for purposes of exchanging, replacing or transferring Bonds may occur at the time of the
original delivery of the Series of which such Bonds are a part. All Bonds surrendered in any
such exchanges or transfers shall be held by the Registrar in safekeeping until directed by the
Issuer to be canceled by the Registrar. For every such exchange or transfer of Bonds, the Issuer
or the Registrar may make a charge sufficient to reimburse it for any tax, fee, expense or other
governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. The Issuer
and the Registrar shall not be obligated to make any such exchange or transfer of Bonds of any
Series during the fifteen days next preceding an Interest Date on the Bonds of such Series (other
than Variable Rate Bonds), or, in the case of any proposed redemption of Bonds of such Series,
then during the fifteen days next preceding the date of the first mailing of notice of such
redemption and continuing until such redemption date.

the negotiability, transfer, interchangeability, denominations and form of such Bonds and, if
applicable, coupons appertaining thereto. Coupon Bonds (other than Taxable Bonds) shall only
be issued if an opinion of Bond Counsel is received to the effect that issuance of such coupon
Bonds will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of interest earned on such
Bonds for federal income tax purposes.

The text of the Bonds, except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.09 hereof (the
form of which shall be provided by Supplemental Resolution of the Issuer) shall be in

may be necessary and/or desirable and approved by the Mayor prior to the issuance thereof

principal next due within one year which would have accrued on said Bonds during the
then current calendar month if such principal amounts were deemed to accrue monthly
(assuming that a year consists of twelve equivalent calendar months of thirty days each)
in equal amounts from the next preceding principal payment due date, or, if there is no
such preceding principal payment due date, from a date one year preceding the due
date of such principal amount. Moneys in the Principal Account shall be used to pay the
principal of the Bonds as and when the same shall mature, and for no other purpose.
The Issuer shall adjust the amount of deposit to the Principal Account not later than the
month immediately preceding any principal payment date so as to provide sufficient
moneys in the Principal Account to pay the principal on Bonds becoming due on such
principal payment date. Payments to the Principal Account shall be on parity with
payments to the Bond Amortization Account.
3. Bond Amortization Account. Commencing in the month which is one
year prior to any Amortization Installment due date, the Issuer shall deposit into or
credit to the Bond Amortization Account the sum which, together with the balance in
said Account, shall equal the Amortization Installments on all Bonds Outstanding due
and unpaid and that portion of the Amortization Installments of all Bonds Outstanding
next due which would have accrued on such Bonds during the then current calendar
month if such Amortization Installments were deemed to accrue monthly (assuming
that a year consists of twelve equivalent calendar months having thirty days each) in
equal amounts from the next preceding Amortization Installment due date, or, if there is
no such preceding Amortization Installment due date, from a date one year preceding
the due date of such Amortization Installment. Moneys in the Bond Amortization
Account shall be used to purchase or redeem Term Bonds in the manner herein
provided, and for no other purpose. The Issuer shall adjust the amount of the deposit
into the Bond Amortization Account not later than the 21St month immediately
preceding any date for payment of an Amortization Installment so as to provide
sufficient moneys in the Bond Amortization Account to pay the Amortization
Installments on the Bonds coming due on such date. Payments to the Bond
Amortization Account shall be on a parity with payments to the Principal Account.
26
Amounts accumulated in the Bond Amortization Account with respect to any
Amortization Installment (together with amounts accumulated in the Interest Account
with respect to interest, if any, on the Term Bonds for which such Amortization
Installment was established) may be applied by the Issuer, on or prior to the sixtieth day
preceding the due date of such Amortization Installment (a) to the purchase of Term
Bonds of the Series and maturity for which such Amortization Installment was
established, at a price not greater than the Redemption Price at which such Term Bonds
may be redeemed on the first date thereafter on which such Term Bonds shall be subject
to redemption, or (b) to the redemption at the applicable Redemption Price of such Term
Bonds, if then redeemable by their terms. The applicable Redemption Price (or principal
amount of maturing Term Bonds) of any Term Bonds so purchased or redeemed shall be
deemed to constitute part of the Bond Amortization Account until such Amortization
Installment date, for the purposes of calculating the amount of such Account. As soon
as practicable after the sixtieth day preceding the due date of any such Amortization
Installment, the Issuer shall proceed to call for redemption on such due date, by causing
notice to be given as provided in Section 3.03 hereof, Term Bonds of the Series and
maturity for which such Amortization Installment was established (except in the case of
Term Bonds maturing on an Amortization Installment date) in such amount as shall be
necessary to complete the retirement of the unsatisfied balance of such Amortization
Installment. The Issuer shall pay out of the Bond Amortization Account and the Interest
Account to the appropriate Paying Agents, on or before the day preceding such
redemption date (or maturity date), the amount required for the redemption (or for the
payment of such Term Bonds then maturing), and such amount shall be applied by such
Paying Agents to such redemption (or payment). All expenses in connection with the
purchase or redemption of Term Bonds shall be paid by the Issuer from the Revenue
Fund.
4. Reserve Account. Next, the Issuer shall deposit into or credit to the
Reserve Account and/or any subaccount hereafter created therein a sum sufficient to
maintain therein an amount equal to the applicable Reserve Account Requirement.
Moneys in the Reserve Account (or any subaccount therein) shall be used only for the
purpose of the payment of maturing principal, interest or Amortization Installments on
the Bonds which are secured thereby when the other moneys in the Debt Service Fund
are insufficient therefor, and for no other purpose. However, whenever the moneys on
deposit in the Reserve Account (or any subaccount therein) exceed the applicable
Reserve Account Requirement, such excess shall be withdrawn and deposited into the
Interest Account.
Upon the issuance of any Additional Bonds under the terms, limitations and
conditions as herein provided, the Issuer may, on the date of delivery of such Additional
Bonds, create and establish a separate subaccount in the Reserve Account to secure such
Series of Bonds, and may also establish an applicable Reserve Account Requirement.
Such required sum may be paid in full or in part from the proceeds of such Additional
Bonds.
27
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in lieu of the required cash deposits
into the Reserve Account (or any subaccounts therein) , subject to the written consent of
the Insurer or Insurers, if any, the Issuer may, at any time, cause to be deposited into the
Reserve Account (or any subaccounts therein) a surety bond, irrevocable letter of credit,
guaranty or an insurance policy for the benefit of the applicable Bondholders in an
amount equal to the difference between the applicable Reserve Account Requirement
and the sums then on deposit in the Reserve Account and/or subaccount therein. Such
surety bond, irrevocable letter of credit, guaranty or insurance policy shall be payable to
the Paying Agent (upon the giving of notice as required thereunder) on any Interest
Date on which a deficiency exists which cannot be cured by funds in any other fund or
account held pursuant to this Resolution and available for such purpose. Repayment of
draws made from a surety bond, irrevocable letter of credit, guaranty or an insurance
policy provided pursuant to this paragraph, shall be made in accordance with a
Supplemental Resolution.
Whenever the amount in the Reserve Account or any subaccount therein,
together with the other amounts in the Debt Service Fund, are sufficient to fully pay all
applicable Outstanding Bonds in accordance with their terms (including principal or
applicable Redemption Price and interest thereon), the funds on deposit in the Reserve
Account (or any subaccounts therein) may be transferred to the other accounts of the
Debt Service Fund for the payment of such Bonds.
5. Unrestricted Revenue Account. The balance of any moneys after the
deposits required by Sections 4.05(A)(1) through 4.05(A)(4) hereof may be transferred, at
the discretion of the Issuer, to the Unrestricted Revenue Account or to any other
appropriate fund or account of the Issuer and be used for any lawful purpose.
(B) The Issuer, in its discretion, may use moneys in the Principal Account and the
Interest Account to purchase or redeem Bonds coming due on the next principal payment date,
provided such purchase or redemption does not adversely affect the Issuer's ability to pay the
principal or interest coming due on such principal payment date on the Bonds not so purchased
or redeemed.
(C) At least one business day prior to the date established for payment of any
principal of or Redemption Price, if applicable, or interest on the Bonds, the Issuer shall
withdraw from the appropriate account of the Debt Service Fund sufficient moneys to pay such
principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, or interest and deposit such moneys with the
Paying Agent for the Bonds to be paid.
SECTION 4.06 Investments.
The Construction Fund, the Restricted Revenue Account and the Debt Service Fund
shall be continuously secured in the manner by which the deposit of public funds are
authorized to be secured by the laws of the State and the investment policy of the Issuer.
28
Moneys on deposit in the Construction Fund, the Restricted Revenue Account and the Debt
Service Fund may be invested and reinvested in Permitted Investments maturing no later than
the date on which the moneys therein will be needed. Any and all income received by the
Issuer from the investment of moneys in each account of the Construction Fund, the Interest
Account, the Principal Account, the Bond Amortization Account, the Reserve Account or any
subaccounts therein (but only to the extent that the amount therein is less than the applicable
Reserve Account Requirement) and the Restricted Revenue Account shall be retained in such
respective Fund or Account unless otherwise required by applicable law. To the extent that the
amount in the Reserve Account or any subaccounts therein is equal to or greater than the
applicable Reserve Account Requirement, any and all income received by the Issuer from the
investment of moneys therein shall be transferred, upon receipt, and deposited into the Interest
Account.
Nothing contained in this Resolution shall prevent any Permitted Investments acquired
as investments of or security for funds held under this Resolution from being issued or held in
book-entry form on the books of the Department of the Treasury of the United States.
SECTION 4.07 Separate Accounts.
The moneys required to be accounted for in each of the foregoing funds and accounts
established herein may be deposited in a single bank account, and funds allocated to the
various funds and accounts established herein may be invested in a common investment pool,
provided that adequate accounting records are maintained to reflect and control the restricted
allocation of the moneys on deposit therein and such investments for the various purposes of.
such funds and accounts as herein provided.
The designation and establishment of the various funds and accounts in and by this
Resolution shall not be construed to require the establishment of any completely independent,
self-balancing funds as such term is commonly defined and used in governmental accounting,
but rather is intended solely to constitute an earmarking of certain revenues for certain
purposes and to establish certain priorities for application of such revenues as herein provided.
ARTICLE V
SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS,
ADDITIONAL BONDS,AND COVENANTS OF ISSUER
SECTION 5.01 Subordinated Indebtedness.
The Issuer will not issue any other obligations, except under the conditions and in the
manner provided herein, payable from the Pledged Funds or voluntarily create or cause to be
created any debt, lien, pledge, assignment, encumbrance or other charge having priority to or
being on a parity with the lien thereon in favor of the Bonds and the interest thereon. The
Issuer may at any time or from time to time issue evidences of indebtedness payable in whole or
in part out of the Pledged Funds and which may be secured by a pledge of the Pledged Funds;
provided, however, that such pledge shall be, and shall be expressed to be, subordinated in all
29
respects to the pledge of the Pledged Funds created by this Resolution. The Issuer shall have
the right to covenant with the holders from time to time of any Subordinated Indebtedness to
add to the conditions, limitations and restrictions under which any Additional Bonds may be
issued pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof. The Issuer agrees to pay promptly any Subordinated
Indebtedness as the same shall become due.
SECTION 5.02 Issuance of Additional Bonds.
No Additional Bonds, payable on a parity with the Bonds then Outstanding pursuant to
this Resolution, shall be issued except upon the conditions and in the manner herein provided.
The Issuer may issue one or more Series of Additional Bonds for any one or more of the
following purposes: financing or refinancing the Cost of an Additional Project, or the
completion thereof or of the Initial Project of the Issuer, or refinancing Subordinate
Indebtedness.
No such Additional Bonds shall be issued unless the following conditions are complied
with:
(A) There shall have been obtained and filed with the Issuer a statement of the
Finance Director (1) setting forth the amount of the Pledged Revenues which have been
received by the Issuer during the most recent Fiscal Year for which audited financial statements
are available; and (2) stating that the amount of the Pledged Revenues received during the
aforementioned twelve month period equaled at least 1.35 times the Maximum Annual Debt
Service of all Bonds then Outstanding including such proposed Additional Bonds with respect
to which such statement is made (together with Policy Costs). "Policy Costs" means any
repayment or payment obligations due and owing in connection with on any surety bond on
deposit in the Reserve Account. In the event the Act is amended to provide for additional
Pledged Revenues to be distributed to the Issuer, the Issuer may then for the purpose of
determining whether there are sufficient Pledged Revenues to meet the coverage tests specified
in this Section 5.02(A),have the Finance Director assume that such additional Pledged Revenues
were in effect during the applicable Fiscal Year.
For the purposes of the covenants contained in this Section 5.02, Annual Debt Service
with respect to Variable Rate Bonds shall be determined assuming that such obligations bear
interest at the higher of 6.00% per annum or the actual interest rate borne during the month
immediately preceding the date of calculation. The foregoing notwithstanding, for purposes of
calculating Annual Debt Service, any Variable Rate Bonds with respect to which the Issuer has
entered into an interest rate swap or interest rate cap for a notional amount equal to the
principal amount of such variable rate indebtedness shall be treated for purposes of this Section
5.02 as bearing interest at a fixed rate equal to the fixed rate payable by the Issuer under the
interest rate swap, or the capped rate provided by the interest rate cap.
(B) Additional Bonds shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to this
Resolution the same as the Outstanding Bonds, and all of the other covenants and other
30
provisions of this Resolution (except as to details of such Additional Bonds inconsistent
therewith) shall be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the Holders of all Bonds
issued pursuant to this Resolution. All Bonds, regardless of the time or times of their issuance,
shall rank equally with respect to their lien on the Pledged Funds and their sources and security
for payment therefrom without preference of any Bond over any other.
(C) In the event any Additional Bonds are issued for the purpose of refunding any
Bonds then Outstanding, the conditions of this Section 5.02 shall not apply, provided that the
issuance of such Additional Bonds shall not result in an increase in the aggregate amount of
Annual Debt Service on the Outstanding Bonds becoming due in the current Bond Year or in
any subsequent Bond Years. The conditions of Section 5.02(A) hereof shall apply to Additional
Bonds issued to refund Subordinated Indebtedness and to Additional Bonds issued for
refunding purposes which cannot meet the conditions of this paragraph.
SECTION 5.03 Bond Anticipation Notes.
Subject to Sections 5.01 or 5.02 hereof, the Issuer may issue notes in anticipation of the
issuance of Bonds which shall have such terms and details and be secured in such manner, not
inconsistent with this Resolution, as shall be provided by Resolution of the Issuer.
SECTION 5.04 Books and Records.
The Issuer will keep books and records of the receipt of the Pledged Revenues in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and any Holder or Holders of Bonds
shall have the right at all reasonable times to inspect the records, accounts and data of the Issuer
relating thereto.
SECTION 5.05 Annual Audit.
The Issuer shall, within a reasonable amount of time after the close of each Fiscal Year,
cause the financial statements of the Issuer to be properly audited by a recognized independent
certified public accountant or recognized independent firm of certified public accountants, and
shall require such accountants to complete their report on the annual financial statements in
accordance with applicable law. Such annual financial statements shall contain, but not be
limited to, a balance sheet, a statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance,
and any other statements as required by law or accounting convention. The annual financial
statements shall be prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. A
copy of the audited financial statements for each Fiscal Year shall be furnished to any Holder of
a Bond who shall have furnished such Holder's address to the Clerk and requested in writing
that the same be furnished to such Holder. The Issuer shall be permitted to make a reasonable
charge for furnishing such audited financial statements.
31
SECTION 5.06 No Impairment.
As long as there are Bonds Outstanding hereunder, the pledging of the Pledged Funds
in the manner provided herein shall not be subject to repeal, modification or impairment by any
subsequent ordinance, resolution or other proceedings of the City Commission.
SECTION 5.07 Collection of Pledged Revenues.
The Issuer covenants to do all things necessary on its part to continue the receipt of the
Pledged Revenues in compliance with the Act and any successor provision of law governing the
same and shall not take or consent to any action that would impair the Issuer's ability to collect
Pledged Revenues at the current rates. The Issuer will proceed diligently to perform legally and
effectively all steps required on its part to receive the Pledged Revenues and shall exercise all
legally available remedies to enforce such collections now or hereafter available under State
law.
SECTION 5.08 Federal Income Tax Covenants;Taxable Bonds.
(A) The Issuer covenants with the Holders of each Series of Bonds (other than
Taxable Bonds) that it shall not use the proceeds of such Series of Bonds in any manner which
would cause the interest on such Series of Bonds to be or become includable in the gross income
of the Holder thereof for federal income tax purposes.
(B) The Issuer covenants with the Holders of each Series of Bonds (other than
Taxable Bonds) that neither the Issuer nor any Person under its control or direction will make
any use of the proceeds of such Series of Bonds (or amounts deemed to be proceeds under the
Code) in any manner which would cause such Series of Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within
the meaning of Section 148 of the Code and neither the Issuer nor any other Person shall do any
act or fail to do any act which would cause the interest on such Series of Bonds to become
includable in the gross income of the Holder thereof for federal income tax purposes.
(C) The Issuer hereby covenants with the Holders of each Series of Bonds (other than
Taxable Bonds) that it will comply with all provisions of the Code necessary to maintain the
exclusion of interest on the Bonds from the gross income of the Holder thereof for federal
income tax purposes, including, in particular, the payment of any amount required to be
rebated to the U.S. Treasury pursuant to the Code.
(D) The Issuer may, if it so elects, issue one or more Series of Taxable Bonds the
interest on which is (or may be) includable in the gross income of the Holder thereof for federal
income tax purposes, so long as each Bond of such Series states in the body thereof that interest
payable thereon is (or may be) subject to federal income taxation and provided that the issuance
thereof will not cause the interest on any other Bonds theretofore issued hereunder to be or
become includable in the gross income of the Holder thereof for federal income tax purposes.
The covenants set forth in paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) above shall not apply to any Taxable
Bonds.

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 or the
Insurer of such amount of Bonds. 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 6.02 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 jurisdiction, protect
and enforce any and all rights under the laws of the State, 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

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
33
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. After the appointment of the
first trust hereunder, no further trustees may be appointed; however, the Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of all the Bonds then Outstanding may remove the trustee
initially appointed and appoint a successor and subsequent successors at any time.
SECTION 6.03 Directions to Trustee as to Remedial Proceedings.The Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding (or any Insurer insuring any then
Outstanding Bonds who is not in default in the performance of any of its obligations under its
Insurance Policy) have the right, by an instrument or concurrent 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

from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient.

interest then due, in the order of the maturity of such installments, and, if the amount

entitled thereto, without any discrimination or preference;

Section 8.01 of this Resolution), in the order of their due dates, with interest upon such
Bonds from the respective dates upon which they became due, and, if the amount
available shall not be sufficient to pay in full Bonds due on any particular date, together

specified Series or maturity remain Outstanding, the consent of the Holders of such Bonds shall
not be required and such Bonds shall not be deemed to be Outstanding for the purpose of any
calculation of Outstanding Bonds under this Section 7.02. Any Supplemental Resolution which

Resolution when consented to and approved as provided in this Section 7.02.
36
Whenever the Issuer shall deliver to the Clerk an instrument or instruments in writing
purporting to be executed by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, which instrument or instruments shall refer to the
proposed Supplemental Resolution described in such notice and shall specifically consent to
and approve the adoption thereof in substantially the form of the copy thereof referred to in
such notice, thereupon, but not otherwise, the Issuer may adopt such Supplemental Resolution
in substantially such form, without liability or responsibility to any Holder of any Bond,
whether or not such Holder shall have consented thereto.
If the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds
Outstanding at the time of the adoption of such Supplemental Resolution shall have consented
to and approved the adoption thereof as herein provided,no Holder of any Bond shall have any
right to object to the adoption of such Supplemental Resolution, or to object to any of the terms
and provisions contained therein or the operation thereof, or in any manner to question the
propriety of the adoption thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the Issuer from adopting the same or
from taking any action pursuant to the provisions thereof.
Upon the adoption of any Supplemental Resolution pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 7.02, this Resolution shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance
therewith, and the respective rights, duties and obligations under this Resolution of the Issuer
and all Holders of Bonds then Outstanding shall thereafter be determined, exercised and
enforced in all respects under the provisions of this Resolution as so modified and amended.
SECTION 7.03 Supplemental Resolutions with Insurer's Consent in lieu of
Bondholders' Consent.Notwithstanding any provisions of Section 7.02 above to the contrary, if
the Insurer of a particular Series of Bonds is not then in default in the performance of any of its
obligations under its Insurance Policy, the approvals, consents and notifications required by
Section 7.02 above to be given by or to the Holders of the Bonds, as the case may be, subject to
such Insurance Policy shall be given solely by or to the Insurer, as the case may be, and the
instrument contemplated by Section 7.02 above shall be executed solely by the Insurer and the
Holders of the Bonds subject to such Insurance Policy shall have no right to receive such
notification or give such approvals and consents or to execute such certificate except that the

otherwise be paid to the Holders of all Bonds, the principal or Redemption Price, if applicable,
and interest due or to become due thereon, at the times and in the mariner stipulated therein
and in this Resolution, then the pledge of the Pledged Funds, and all covenants, agreements and
