(a) Any Certificate of Obligation and the interest thereon shall be deemed to be paid, retired, and no longer outstanding (a "Defeased Certificate of Obligation") within the meaning of this Ordinance, except to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section 10, when payment of the. principal of such Certificate of Obligation, plus interest thereon to the due date (whether such due date be by reason of maturity, upon redemption, or otherwise) either (i) shall have been made or caused to be made in accordance with the terms thereof (including the giving of any required notice of redemption, or (ii) shall have been provided for on or before such due date by irrevocably depositing with or making avail- able to the Paying Agent/Registrar for such payment (1) lawful money of the United States of America sufficient to make such payment or (2) Government Obligations which mature as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as will insure the availability, without reinvestment, of sufficient money to provide for such payment, and 22 when proper arrangements have been made by the Issuer with the Paying Agent/Registrar for the payment of its services until all Defeased Certificates of Obligation shall have become due and payable. At such time as a Certificate of Obligation shall be deemed to be a Defeased Certificate of Obligation hereunder, as aforesaid, such Certificate of Obligation and the interest thereon shall no longer be secured by, payable from, or entitled to the benefits of, the ad valorem taxes herein levied as provided in this Ordinance, and such principal and interest shall be payable solely from such money or Government Obligations. (b) Any moneys so deposited with the Paying Agent/Registrar may at the written direction of the Issuer also be invested in Government Obligations, maturing in the amounts and times as hereinbefore set forth, and all income from such Government Obligations received by the Paying Agent/Registrar which is not required for the payment of the Certificates of Obligation and interest thereon, with respect to which such money has been so deposited, shall be turned over to the Issuer, or deposited as directed in writing by the Issuer.

(c) No Default Occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, in the event any such Certificate of Obligation shall have matured, and no default has occurred which is then continuing in the payment of the principal of, redemption premium, if any, or interest on the Certificate of Obligation, the Issuer may authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a damaged or mutilated Certificate of Obligation) instead of issuing a replacement Certificate of Obligation, provided security or indemnity is furnished as above provided in this Section. (d) Charge for Issuing Replacement Certificates of Obligation. Prior to the issuance of any replacement certificate of obligation, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall charge the registered owner of such Certificate of Obligation with all legal, printing, and other expenses in connection therewith.

(e) Authority for Issuing Replacement Certificates of Obligation. In accordance with Section 6 of Vernon's Ann. Tex. Civ. St. Art. 717k-6, this Section 11 of this Ordinance shall constitute authority for the issuance of any such replacement certificate of obligation without necessity of further action by the governing body of the Issuer or any other body or person, and the duty of the replacement of such certificates of obligation is hereby authorized and imposed upon the Paying Agent/Registrar, and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall authenticate and deliver such Certificates of Obligation in the form and manner and with the effect, as provided in Section 6(d) of this Ordinance for Certificates of Obligation issued in conversion and exchange for other Certificates of Obligation.

In furtherance thereof, the Issuer covenants as follows: (a) to take any action to assure that no more than 10 percent of the proceeds of the Certificates of Obligation (less amounts deposited to a reserve fund, if any) are used for any "private business use," as defined in Section 141(b)(6) of the Code or, if more than 10 percent of the proceeds are so used, that amounts, whether or not received by the Issuer, with respect to such private business use, do not, under the terms of this Ordi- nance, or any underlying arrangement, directly or indirectly, secure or provide for the payment of more than 10 percent of the debt service on the Certificates of Obligation, in contravention of Section 141(b)(2) of the Code; (b) to take. any action to assure that in the event that the "private business use" described in subsection (a) hereof exceeds 5 percent of the proceeds of the Certificates of Obligation (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) then the amount in excess of 5 percent is used for a "private business use" which is "related" and not "dispro- portionate," within the meaning of Section 141(b)(3) of the Code, to the governmental use; (c) to take any action to assure that no amount which is greater than the lesser of $5,000,000, or 5 percent of the proceeds of the Certificates of Obligation (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) is directly or indirectly used to finance loans to persons, other than state or local governmental units, in contravention of Section 141(c) of the Code; 25 (d) to refrain from taking any action which would otherwise result in the Certificates of Obligation being treated as "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141(b) of the Code; (e) to refrain from taking any action that would result in the Certificates of Obligation being "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code; (t) to refrain from using any portion of the proceeds of the Certificates of Obligation, directly or indirectly, to acquire or to replace funds which were used, directly or indirectly, to acquire investment property (as defined in Section 148(b)(2) of the Code) which produces a materially higher yield over the term of the Certificates of Obligation, other than investment property acquired with -- (1) proceeds of the Certificates of Obligation invested for a reasonable temporary period of 3 years or less or, in the case of a refunding bond, for a period of 30 days or less until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the bonds are issued, (2) amounts invested in a bona fide debt service fund, within the meaning of Section 1.103-13(b)(12) of the Treasury Regulations, and (3) amounts deposited in any reasonably required reserve or replacement fund to the extent such amounts do not exceed 10 percent of the proceeds of the Certificates of Obligation; (g) to otherwise restrict the use of the proceeds of the Certificates of Obligation or amounts treated as proceeds of the Certificates of Obligation, as may be necessary, so that the Certificates of Obligation do not otherwise contravene the requirements of Section 148 of the Code (relating to arbitrage) and, to the extent applicable, Section 149(d) of the Code (relating to advance refundings); (h) to pay to the United States of America at least once during each five-year period (beginning on the date of delivery of the Certificates of Obligation) an amount that is at least equal to 90 percent of the "Excess Earnings," within the meaning of Section 148(f) of the Code and to pay to the United States of America, not later than 60 days after the Certificates of Obligation have been paid in full, 100 percent of the amount then required to be paid as a result of Excess Earnings under Section 148(f) of the Code; and (i) to maintain such records as will enable the Issuer to fulfill its responsibilities under this Section and Section 148 of the Code and to retain such records for at least six years following the final payment of principal and interest on the Certificates of Obligation. 26 In order to facilitate compliance with the above covenants (g), (h), and (i), a "Rebate Fund" is hereby established by the Issuer for the sole benefit of the United States of America, and such Fund shall not be subject to the claim of any other person, including without limitation the bondholders. The Rebate Fund is established for the additional purpose of compliance with Section 148 of the Code. It is the understanding of the Issuer that the covenants contained herein are intended to assure compliance with the Code and any regulations or rulings promulgated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury pursuant thereto.
