transfers, conversions and exchanges under such reasonable
regulations as the Issuer and Paying Agent/Registrar may pre-
scribe; and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall make such regis-
trations, transfers, conversions and exchanges as herein pro-
vided. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall obtain and record in

each Bond to which payments with respect to the Bonds shall be
mailed, as herein provided; but it shall be the duty of each
registered owner to notify the Paying Agent/ Registrar in

unless such Certificate is so executed. The Paying Agent/
Registrar promptly shall cancel all paid Bonds and Bonds
surrendered for conversion and exchange. No additional ordi-
nances, orders, or resolutions need be passed or adopted by the
governing body of the Issuer or any other body or person so as
to accomplish the foregoing conversion and exchange of any Bond
or portion thereof, and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall
provide for the printing, execution, and delivery of the
substitute Bonds in the manner prescribed herein, and said
Bonds shall be of type composition printed on paper with
lithographed or steel engraved borders of customary weight and
strength. Pursuant to Vernon's Ann. Tex. Civ. St. Art. 717k-6,
and particularly Section 6 thereof, the duty of conversion and
exchange of Bonds as aforesaid is hereby imposed upon the
Paying Agent/Registrar, and, upon the execution of said Cer-
tificate, the converted and exchanged Bond shall be valid,
incontestable, and enforceable in the same manner and with the
same effect as the Bonds which initially were issued and
delivered pursuant to this Ordinance, approved by the Attorney
General, and registered by the Comptroller of Public Accounts.

scheduled payment date, and for thirty (30) days thereafter, a
new record date for such interest payment (a "Special Record
Date") will be established by the Paying Agent/Registrar, if
and when funds for the payment of such interest have been
received from the Issuer. Notice of the past due interest
(which shall be 15 days after the Special Record Date) shall be

Record Date by United States mail, first class postage prepaid,

registered form, without interest coupons, with the principal
of and interest on such Bonds to be payable only to the regis-
tered owners thereof, (ii) may be redeemed prior to their

Paying Agent/Registrar and the Issuer shall have certain duties
and responsibilities with respect to the Bonds, all as pro-
vided, and in the manner and to the effect as required or indi-
cated, in the FORM OF BOND set forth in this Ordinance. The
Bonds initially issued and delivered pursuant to this Ordinance
are not required to be, and shall not be, authenticated by the
Paying Agent/Registrar, but on each substitute Bond issued in
conversion of and exchange for any Bond or Bonds issued under
this Ordinance the Paying Agent/Registrar shall execute the
PAYING AGENT/REGISTRAR'S AUTHENTICATION CERTIFICATE, in the
form set forth in the FORM OF BOND.
(d) Substitute Paying Agent/Registrar. The Issuer
covenants with the registered owners of the Bonds that at all
times while the Bonds are outstanding the Issuer will provide a
competent and legally qualified bank, trust company, financial
institution, or other agency to act as and perform the services
of Paying Agent/Registrar for the Bonds under this Ordinance,
and that the Paying Agent/Registrar will be one entity and
shall be an entity registered with the Securities and Exchange

option, change the Paying Agent/Registrar upon not less than
120 days written notice to the Paying Agent/Registrar, to be
effective not later than 60 days prior to the next principal or
interest payment date after such notice. In the event that the
entity at any time acting as Paying Agent/Registrar (or its
successor by merger, acquisition, or other method) should
resign or otherwise cease to act as such, the Issuer covenants
that promptly it will appoint a competent and legally qualified
bank, trust company, financial institution, or other agency to
act as Paying Agent/Registrar under this Ordinance. Upon any
change in the Paying Agent/Registrar, the previous Paying
Agent/Registrar promptly shall transfer and deliver the Regis-
tration Books (or a copy thereof), along with all other perti-
nent books and records relating to the Bonds, to the new Paying
Agent/Registrar designated and appointed by the Issuer. Upon
any change in the Paying Agent/Registrar, the Issuer promptly
will cause a written notice thereof to be sent by the new
Paying Agent/Registrar to each registered owner of the Bonds,
by United States mail, first-class postage prepaid, which
notice also shall give the address of the new Paying Agent/
Registrar. By accepting the position and performing as such,
each Paying Agent/Registrar shall be deemed to have agreed to
the provisions of this Ordinance, and a certified copy of this
Ordinance shall be delivered to each Paying Agent/Registrar.

thentication hereof the interest on the Bond or Bonds, if any,

for such interest payment (a "Special Record Date") will be
established by the Paying Agent/Registrar, if and when funds
for the payment of such interest have been received from the
Issuer. The Issuer covenants with the registered owner of this
Bond that on or before each principal payment date, interest
;'payment date, and accrued interest payment date for this Bond
it will make available to the Paying Agent/Registrar, from the
"Interest and Sinking Fund" created by the Bond Ordinance, the

or a day on which banking institutions in the city where the
principal corporate trust office of the Paying Agent/Registrar

then the date for such payment shall be the next succeeding day
which is not such a Saturday, Sunday, legal holiday, or day on
which banking institutions are authorized to close, or the
United States Postal Service is not open for business; and
payment on such date shall have the same force and effect as if
made on the original date payment was due.
THIS BOND is one of a Series of Bonds dated November 1,
1985, authorized in accordance with the Constitution and laws
of the State of Texas in the principal amount of $7,180,000,
FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING FUNDS TO REFUND ALL OF THE
ISSUER'S OUTSTANDING WATERWORKS AND SEWER SYSTEM REVENUE BONDS.
ON FEBRUARY 1, 1996, or on any interest payment date
thereafter, the Bonds of this Series may be redeemed prior to
their scheduled maturities, at the option of the Issuer, with
funds derived from any available and lawful source, as a whole,
or in part, and, if in part, the particular Bonds, or portions
thereof, to be redeemed shall be selected by the Paying Agent/
Registrar and approved by the Issuer (provided that a portion
of a Bond may be redeemed only in an integral multiple of
$5,000), at a redemption price equal to the principal amount to
be redeemed plus accrued interest to the date fixed for re-
demption.
AT LEAST 30 days prior to the date fixed for any redemp-
tion of Bonds or portions thereof prior to maturity a written
notice of such redemption shall be published once in a finan-
cial publication, journal or reporter of general circulation
among securities dealers in the City of New York, New York or
in the State of Texas. Such notice also shall be sent by the
Paying Agent/Registrar by United States mail, first-class
postage prepaid, at least 30 days prior to the date fixed for
any such redemption, to the registered owner of each Bond to be
redeemed at its address as it appeared on the 45th day prior to
such redemption date; provided, however, that the failure to
send, mail or receive such notice, or any defect therein or in
the sending or mailing thereof, shall not affect the validity
or effectiveness of the proceedings for the redemption of any
Bond, and it is hereby specifically provided that the publica-
tion of such notice as required above shall be the only notice
actually required in connection with or as a prerequisite to
the redemption of any Bonds or portions thereof. By the date
fixed for any such redemption due provision shall be made with
the Paying Agent/Registrar for the payment of the required
redemption price for the Bonds or portions thereof which are to
be so redeemed. If such written notice of redemption is
published and if due provision for such payment is made, all as
provided above, the Bonds or portions thereof which are to be
so redeemed thereby automatically shall be treated as redeemed
prior to their scheduled maturities, and they shall not bear
7
interest after the date fixed for redemption, and they shall
not be regarded as being outstanding except for the right of
the registered owner to receive the redemption price from the
Paying Agent/Registrar out of the funds provided for such
payment. If a portion of any Bond shall be redeemed a substi-
tute Bond or Bonds having the same maturity date, bearing
interest at the same rate, in any denomination or denominations
in any integral multiple of $5,000, at the written request of
the registered owner, and in aggregate principal amount equal
to the unredeemed portion thereof, will be issued to the
registered owner upon the surrender thereof for cancellation,
at the expense of the Issuer, all as provided in the Bond
Ordinance.
ALL BONDS OF THIS SERIES are issuable solely as fully
registered Bonds, without interest coupons, in the denomination
of any integral multiple of $5,000. As provided in the Bond
Ordinance, this Bond, may, at the request of the registered
owner or the assignee or assignees hereof, be assigned, trans-
ferred, converted into and exchanged for a like aggregate
principal amount of fully registered Bonds, without interest
coupons, payable to the appropriate registered owner, assignee
or assignees, as the case may be, having the same denomination
or denominations in any integral multiple of $5,000 as reques-
ted in writing by the appropriate registered owner, assignee or
assignees, as the case may be, upon surrender of this Bond to
the Paying Agent/Registrar for cancellation, all in accordance
with the form and procedures set forth in the Bond Ordinance.
Among other requirements for such assignment and transfer, this
Bond must be presented and surrendered to the Paying Agent/Reg-
istrar, together with proper instruments of assignment, in form
and with guarantee of signatures satisfactory to the Paying
Agent/Registrar, evidencing assignment of this Bond or any
portion or portions hereof in any integral multiple of $5,000
to the assignee or assignees in whose name or names this Bond
or any such portion or portions hereof is or are to be regis-
tered. The form of Assignment printed or endorsed on this Bond
may be executed by the registered owner to evidence the assign-
ment hereof, but such method is not exclusive, and other
instruments of assignment satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Reg-
istrar may be used to evidence the assignment of this Bond or
any portion or portions hereof from time to time by the regis-
tered owner. The one requesting such conversion and exchange
shall pay the Paying Agent/Registrar's reasonable standard or
customary fees and charges for converting and exchanging any
Bond or portion thereof. In any circumstance, any taxes or
governmental charges required to be paid with respect thereto
shall be paid by the one requesting such assignment, transfer,
conversion or exchange, as a condition precedent to the exer-
cise of such privilege. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the
case of the conversion and exchange of a portion of a Bond
which has been redeemed prior to maturity, as provided herein,
and in the case of the conversion and exchange of an assigned
and transferred Bond or Bonds or any portion or portions
thereof, such fees and charges of the Paying Agent/Registrar
will be paid by the Issuer. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall
not be required to make any such transfer, conversion, or
exchange (i) during the period commencing with the close of

gage Association, Small Business Administration, Federal

Revenues and deposit to the credit of the Interest and Sinking
Fund the amounts, at the times, as follows:
(1) such amounts, deposited in approximately equal
monthly installments on or before the 25th day of each
month hereafter, commencing with the month during which
the Bonds are delivered, or the month thereafter if
delivery is made after the 25th day thereof, as will be
sufficient, together with other amounts, if any, then on
hand in the Interest and Sinking Fund and available for
such purpose, to pay interest scheduled to accrue and come
due on the Bonds and Additional Bonds on the next succeed-
ing interest payment date;
(2) such amounts, deposited in approximately equal
monthly installments on or before the 25th day of each
month hereafter, commencing with the month during which
the Bonds are delivered, or the month thereafter if
delivery is made after the 25th day thereof, as will be
sufficient, together with other amounts, if any, then on
hand in the Interest and Sinking Fund and available for
such purpose, to pay principal scheduled to mature and
come due on the Bonds and any Additional Bonds on the next

upon the delivery of the Bonds the Issuer shall cause to be

Issuer shall maintain in the Reserve Fund an amount of money
and investments equal to the average annual principal and
interest requirements of the Bonds (the "Required Reserve
Amount"). Following the issuance of Additional Bonds, the
Required Reserve Amount shall be equal to the average annual
principal and interest requirements of all Bonds and Additional
Bonds then outstanding. After the delivery of any Additional
Bonds the Issuer shall cause the Reserve Fund to be increased,
if and to the extent necessary, so that such fund will contain
an amount of money and investments equal to the Required
Reserve Amount. Any increase in the Required Reserve Amount
may be funded from Pledged Revenues or from proceeds from the
sale of any Additional Bonds, or any other available source or
combination of sources. All or any part of the Required
Reserve Amount not funded initially and immediately after the
delivery of any installment or issue of Additional Bonds shall
be funded, within not more than five years from the date of
such delivery, by deposits of Pledged Revenues in approximately
equal monthly installments on or before the 25th day of each
month. Principal amounts of the Bonds and any Additional Bonds
which must be redeemed pursuant to any applicable mandatory
redemption requirements shall be deemed to be maturing amounts
of principal for the purpose of calculating principal and
interest requirements on such bonds. When and so long as the
amount in the Reserve Fund is not less than the Required
Reserve Amount no deposits shall be made to the credit of the
Reserve Fund; but when and if the Reserve Fund at any time
contains less than the Required Reserve Amount, then the Issuer
shall transfer from Pledged Revenues in the System Fund, and
deposit to the credit of the Reserve Fund, monthly on or before
the 25th day of each month, a sum equal to 1/60th of the
Required Reserve Amount, until the Reserve Fund is restored to
the Required Reserve Amount. The Issuer specifically covenants
14
that when and so long as the Reserve Fund contains the Required
Reserve Amount, the Issuer shall cause all interest and income
derived from the deposit or investment of the Reserve Fund to
be deposited to the credit of the System Fund.

Revenues to make the required deposits into the Interest and
Sinking Fund or the Reserve Fund, such deficiency shall be made
up as soon as possible from the next available Pledged Rev-
enues.
(b) That, subject to making the required deposits to the
credit of the various Funds when and as required by this
Ordinance or any ordinance authorizing the issuance of Addi-
tional Bonds, any surplus Pledged Revenues may be used by the
Issuer for any lawful purpose.
Section 19. PAYMENT OF BONDS AND ADDITIONAL BONDS. On or
before February 25, 1986, and semiannually on or before each
August 25 and February 25 thereafter while any of the Bonds or
Additional Bonds are outstanding and unpaid the Issuer shall
make available to the Paying Agent/Registrar therefor, out of
the Interest and Sinking Fund, or if necessary, out of the
Reserve Fund, money sufficient to pay, on each of such dates,
the principal of and interest on the Bonds and Additional Bonds
as the same matures and comes due, or to redeem the Bonds or
Additional Bonds prior to maturity, either upon mandatory
redemption or at the option of the Issuer. At the direction of
the Issuer the Paying Agent/Registrar shall either deliver paid
Bonds and Additional Bonds to the Issuer or destroy all paid
Bonds and Additional Bonds, and furnish the Issuer with an
appropriate certificate of cancellation or destruction.
Section 20. ADDITIONAL BONDS. (a) That the Issuer shall
have the right and power at any time and from time to time, and
in one or more series or issues, to authorize, issue, and
deliver additional parity revenue bonds (herein called "Addi-
tional Bonds"), in accordance with law, in any amounts, for any
lawful purpose, including the refunding of any Bonds or Addi-
tional Bonds, or other obligations. Such Additional Bonds, if
and when authorized, issued, and delivered in accordance with
this Ordinance, shall be payable from and secured by an irrev-
ocable first lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues,
equally and ratably on a parity in all respects with the Bonds
and any other outstanding Additional Bonds.
(b) That the principal of all Additional Bonds must be
scheduled to be paid or mature on February 1 or August 1 (or
both) of the years in which such principal is scheduled to be
paid or mature.
Section 21. FURTHER REQUIREMENTS FOR ADDITIONAL BONDS.
That Additional Bonds shall be issued only in accordance with
this Ordinance, and no installment, Series, or issue of Addi-
tional Bonds shall be issued or delivered unless:
(a) The Mayor of the Issuer and the City Secretary sign a
written certificate to the effect that the Issuer is not in
default as to any covenant, condition, or obligation in connec-
tion with all then outstanding Bonds and Additional Bonds, and
the ordinances authorizing same, and that the Interest and
Sinking Fund and the Reserve Fund each contains the amount then
required to be therein.

dependent firm of certified public accountants, acting by and
through a certified public accountant, signs a written certifi-
cate to the effect that, in his or its opinion, during either
15
11
the next preceding fiscal year, or any twelve consecutive
calendar month period out of the 18 -month period immediately
preceding the month in which the ordinance authorizing the
issuance of the then proposed Additional Bonds is passed, the
Pledged Revenues were at least 1.25 times an amount equal to
the average annual principal and interest requirements and 1.10
times the maximum annual principal and interest requirements of
all Bonds and Additional Bonds which are scheduled to be
outstanding after the delivery of the then proposed Additional
Bonds. It is specifically provided, however, that in calculat-
ing the amount of Pledged Revenues for the purposes of this
subsection (b), if there has been any increase in the rates or
charges for services of the System which is then in effect, but
which was not in effect during all or any part of the entire
period for which the Pledged Revenues are being calculated
(hereinafter referred to as the "entire period") then the
certified public accountant, or in lieu of the certified public
accountant a firm of consulting engineers, shall determine and
certify the amount of Pledged Revenues as being the total of
(i) the actual Pledged Revenues for the entire period, plus
(ii) a sum equal to the aggregate amount by which the actual
billings to customers of the System during the entire period
would have been increased if such increased rates or charges
had been in effect during the entire period.
(c) Provision shall be made in the ordinance authorizing
their issuance for increasing the Reserve Fund to the Required
Reserve Amount as required by Section 17 hereof with proceeds
of the Additional Bonds, or other available source or combina-
tion of sources including Pledged Revenues, or both.
(e) That all calculations of average annual principal and
interest requirements of any bonds made in connection with the
issuance of any then proposed Additional Bonds shall be made as
of the date of such Additional Bonds; and also in making
calculations for such purpose, and for any other purpose under
this Ordinance, principal amounts of any bonds which must be
redeemed prior to maturity pursuant to any applicable mandatory
redemption requirements shall be deemed to be maturing amounts
of principal of such bonds.
Section 22. GENERAL COVENANTS. The Issuer further cove-
nants and agrees that in accordance with and to the extent
required or permitted by law:
(a) Performance. It will faithfully perform at all times
any and all covenants, undertakings, stipulations, and provi-
sions contained in this Ordinance, and each ordinance authoriz-
ing the issuance of Additional Bonds, and in each and every
Bond and Additional Bond; that it will promptly pay or cause to
be paid the principal of and interest on every Bond and Addi-
tional Bond, on the dates and in the places and manner pre-
scribed in such ordinances and Bonds or Additional Bonds; and
that it will, at the times and in the manner prescribed,
deposit or cause to be deposited the amounts required to be
deposited into the Interest and Sinking Fund and the Reserve
Fund; and any holder of the Bonds or Additional Bonds may
require the Issuer, its officials, and employees, to carry out,
respect, or enforce the covenants and obligations of this
Ordinance, or any ordinance authorizing the issuance of Addi-
tional Bonds, by all legal and equitable means, including
specifically, but without limitation, the use and filing of
mandamus proceedings, in any court of competent jurisdiction,
against the Issuer, its officials, and employees.
(b) Issuer's Legal Authority. The Issuer is a duly
created and existing home rule city of the State of Texas, and
is duly authorized under the laws of the State of Texas to
create and issue the Bonds and Additional Bonds; that all
16
action on its part for the creation and issuance of the said
obligations has been or will be duly and effectively taken, and
that said obligations in the hands of the holders and owners
thereof are and will be valid and enforceable special obliga-
tions of the Issuer in accordance with their terms.
(c) Title. The Issuer has or will obtain lawful title to
the lands, buildings, structures, and facilities constituting
the System, that it warrants that it will defend the title to
all the aforesaid lands, buildings, structures, and facilities,
and every part thereof, for the benefit of the holders and
owners of the Bonds and Additional Bonds, against the claims
and demands of all persons whomsoever, that it is lawfully
qualified to pledge the Pledged Revenues to the payment of the
Bonds and Additional Bonds in the manner prescribed herein, and
has lawfully exercised such rights.
(d) Liens. The Issuer will from time to time and before
the same become delinquent pay and discharge all taxes, assess-
ments, and governmental charges, if any, which shall be law-
fully imposed upon it, or the System, that it will pay all
lawful claims for rents, royalties, labor, materials, and
supplies which if unpaid might by law become a lien or charge
thereon, the lien of which would be prior to or interfere with
the liens hereof, so that the priority of the liens granted
hereunder shall be fully preserved in the manner provided
herein, and that it will not create or suffer to be created any
mechanic's, laborer's, materialman's, or other lien or charge
which might or could be prior to the liens hereof, or do or
suffer any matter or thing whereby the liens hereof might or
could be impaired; provided, however, that no such tax, assess-
ment, or charge, and that no such claims which might be used as
the basis of a mechanic's, laborer's, materialman's, or other
lien or charge, shall be required to be paid so long as the
validity of the same shall be contested in good faith by the
Issuer.
(e) Operation of System; No Free Service. While the
Bonds or any Additional Bonds are outstanding and unpaid the
Issuer shall continuously and efficiently operate the System,
and shall maintain the System, or cause the System to be opera-
ted and maintained in good condition, repair, and working
order, all at reasonable cost. No free service of the System
shall be allowed, and should the Issuer or any of its agencies,
instrumentalities, lessors, or concessionaires make use of the
services and facilities of the System, payment monthly of the
standard retail price of the services provided shall be made by
the Issuer or any of its agencies, instrumentalities, lessors,
or concessionaires out of funds from sources other than the
revenues of the System, unless made from surplus Pledged
Revenues as permitted by Section 18(b) hereof.
(f) Further Encumbrance. While the Bonds or any Addi-
tional Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, the Issuer shall not
additionally encumber the Pledged Revenues in any manner,
except as permitted in this Ordinance in connection with
Additional Bonds, unless said encumbrance is made junior and
subordinate in all respects to the liens, pledges, covenants,
and agreements of this Ordinance and any ordinance authorizing
the issuance of Additional Bonds; but the right of the Issuer
to issue revenue bonds payable from a subordinate lien on
surplus Pledged Revenues is specifically recognized and
retained.
(g) Sale or Disposal of Property. While the Bonds or any
Additional Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, the Issuer shall
not sell, convey, mortgage, encumber, lease, or in any manner
transfer title to, or dedicate to other use, or otherwise
dispose of, the System, (except as permitted in paragrah (n)
17
hereof) or any significant or substantial part thereof;
provided that whenever the Issuer deems it necessary to dispose
of any property, machinery, fixtures, or equipment, or dedicate
such property to other use, it may do so either when it has
made arrangements to replace the same or provide substitutes
therefor, or it is determined by resolution of the City Council
that no such replacement or substitute is necessary.
(h) Insurance. (1) The Issuer shall cause to be insured
such parts of the System as would usually be insured by corpor-
ations operating like properties, with a responsible insurance
company or companies, against risks, accidents, or casualties
against which and to the extent insurance is usually carried by
corporations operating like properties, including, to the
extent reasonably obtainable, fire and extended coverage
insurance, insurance against damage by floods, and use and
occupancy insurance. Public liability and property damage
insurance also shall be carried unless the City Attorney gives
a written opinion to the effect that the Issuer is not liable
for claims which would be protected by such insurance. All
insurance premiums shall be paid as an expense of operation of
the System. At any time while any contractor engaged in
construction work shall be fully responsible therefor, the
Issuer shall not be required to carry insurance on the work
being constructed if the contractor is required to carry
appropriate insurance. All such policies shall be open to the
inspection of the Bondholders and their representatives at all
reasonable times. Upon the happening of any loss or damage
covered by insurance from one or more of said causes, the
Issuer shall make due proof of loss and shall do all things
necessary or desirable to cause the insuring companies to make
payment in full directly to the Issuer. The proceeds of
insurance covering such property, together with any other funds
necessary and available for such purpose, shall be used forth-
with by the Issuer for repairing the property damaged or
replacing the property destroyed; provided, however, that if
said insurance proceeds and other funds are insufficient for
such purpose, then said insurance proceeds pertaining to the
System shall be deposited in a special and separate trust fund,
at an official depository of the Issuer, to be designated the
Insurance Account. The Insurance Account shall be held until
such time as other funds become available which, together with
the Insurance Account, will be sufficient to make the repairs
or replacements originally required.
(2) The annual audit hereinafter required may contain a
section commenting on whether or not the Issuer has complied
with the requirements of this Section with respect to the
maintenance of insurance, and shall state whether or not all
insurance premiums upon the insurance policies to which refer-
ence is made have been paid.
(i) Annual Budget and Rate Covenant. The Issuer shall
prepare, prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, an annual
budget, in accordance with law, reflecting an estimate of cash
receipts and disbursements for the ensuing fiscal year in
sufficient detail to indicate the probable Gross Revenues and
Pledged Revenues for such fiscal year. The Issuer shall fix,
establish, maintain, and collect, such rates, charges, and fees
for the use and availability of the System at all times as are
necessary (1) to produce Gross Revenues sufficient, together
with any other Pledged Revenues, to pay all current operation
and maintenance expenses of the System, and (2) to produce an
amount of Pledged Revenues during each fiscal year at least
1.25 times the annual principal and interest requirements of
all then outstanding Bonds and Additional Bonds.
(j) Records. The Issuer shall keep proper books of
record and account in which full, true, proper, and correct
18
entries will be made of all dealings, activities, and trans-
actions relating to the System, the Pledged Revenues, and the
Funds created pursuant to this Ordinance, and all books,
documents, and vouchers relating thereto shall at all reason-
able times be made available for inspection upon request of any
Bondholder or citizen of the Issuer. To the extent consistent
with the provisions of this Ordinance, the Issuer shall keep
its books and records in a manner conforming to standard
accounting practices as usually would be followed by private
corporations owning and operating a similar System, with
appropriate recognition being given to essential differences
between municipal and corporate accounting practices.
(k) Audits. After the close of each fiscal year while
any of the Bonds or any Additional Bonds are outstanding, an
audit will be made of the books and accounts relating to the
System and the Pledged Revenues by an independent certified
public accountant or an independent firm of certified public
accountants. As soon as practicable after the close of each
such year, and when said audit has been completed and made
available to the Issuer, a copy of such audit for the preceding
year shall be mailed to the Municipal Advisory Council of
Texas, to each paying agent for any bonds payable from Pledged
Revenues, to any Bondholders who shall so request in writing,

be open to the inspection of the Bondholders and their agents
and representatives at all reasonable times.

the terms and conditions of any and all franchises, permits,
and authorizations applicable to or necessary with respect to
the System, and which have been obtained from any governmental
agency; and the Issuer has or will obtain and keep in full
force and effect all franchises, permits, authorization, and
other requirements applicable to or necessary with respect to
the acquisition, construction, equipment, operation, and
maintenance of the System.
(m) No Competition. It will not operate, or grant any
franchise or, to the extent it legally may, permit the acquisi-
tion, construction, or operation of, any facilities which would
be in competition with the System, and to the extent that it
legally may, the Issuer will prohibit any such competing
facilities.
(n) District or River Authority Contract. Nothing herein
shall be construed to prevent the Issuer from making contracts
with a district or river authority operating pursuant to
Article 16, Section 59 of the Texas Constitution, as authorized
by Chapter 30, Texas Water Code, or Article 4413 (32c),
V.A.T.C.S., under which a district or river authority will make
a sewer system or water system or portions thereof available to
the Issuer, and will furnish waste water collection,
transportation, treatment, disposal services or water treatment
or water transportation facilities to the Issuer, through the
district's or river authority's sewer system or water system or
in such other manner as deemed appropriate by the Issuer. Such
contracts may provide for the operation, or the acquisition by
purchase or lease, of the Issuer's waste water treatment and
disposal facilities or water treatment or water transportation
facilities, in whole or in part, by the district or river
authority.
Section 23. DEFEASANCE OF THE BONDS. (a) Any Bond and
the interest thereon shall be deemed to be paid, retired, and
no longer outstanding (a "Defeased Bond") within the meaning of
this Ordinance, except to the extent provided in subsection (d)
of this Section 23, when payment of the principal of such Bond,
plus interest thereon to the due date (whether such due date be
19
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 available 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 suffi-
cient money to provide for such payment, and when proper
arrangements have been made by the Issuer with the Paying
Agent/Registrar for the payment of its services until all
Defeased Bonds shall have become due and payable. At such time
as a Bond shall be deemed to be a Defeased Bond hereunder, as
aforesaid, such Bond and the interest thereon shall no longer
be secured by, payable from, or entitled to the benefits of,
the revenue herein levied and pledged 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/Regis-
trar may at the written direction of the Issuer also be in-
vested 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 Bonds and interest
thereon, with respect to which such money has been so depos-
ited, shall be turned over to the Issuer, or deposited as
directed in writing by the Issuer.
(c) The term "Government Obligations" as used in this
Section shall mean direct obligations of the United States of
America, including obligations the principal of and interest on
which are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of
America, which may be United States Treasury obligations such
as its State and Local Government Series, which may be in
book -entry form.
(d) Until all Defeased Bonds shall have become due and
payable, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall perform the services
of Paying Agent/Registrar for such Defeased Bonds the same as
if they had not been defeased, and the Issuer shall make proper
arrangements to provide and pay for such services as required
by this Ordinance.
Section 24. DAMAGED, MUTILATED, LOST, STOLEN, OR DE-
STROYED BONDS. (a) Replacement Bonds. In the event any
outstanding Bond is damaged, mutilated, lost, stolen, or
destroyed, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall cause to be print-
ed, executed, and delivered, a new bond of the same principal
amount, maturity, and interest rate, as the damaged, mutilated,
lost, stolen, or destroyed Bond, in replacement for such Bond
in the manner hereinafter provided.
(b) Application for Replacement Bonds. Application for
replacement of damaged, mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed
Bonds shall be made by the registered owner thereof to the
Paying Agent/Registrar. In every case of loss, theft, or
destruction of a Bond, the registered owner applying for a
replacement bond shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Paying
Agent/Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required
by them to save each of them harmless from any loss or damage
with respect thereto. Also, in every case of loss, theft, or
destruction of a Bond, the registered owner shall furnish to
the Issuer and to the Paying Agent/Registrar evidence to their
satisfaction of the loss, theft, or destruction of such Bond,
as the case may be. In every case of damage or mutilation of a
Bond, the registered owner shall surrender to the Paying
20
Agent/Registrar for cancellation the Bond so damaged or muti-
lated.
(c) No Default Occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section, in the event any such Bond shall
have matured, and no default has occurred which is then con-
tinuing in the payment of the principal of, redemption premium,
if any, or interest on the Bond, the Issuer may authorize the
payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the
case of a damaged or mutilated Bond) instead of issuing a
replacement Bond, provided security or indemnity is furnished
as above provided in this Section.
(d) Charge for Issuing Replacement Bonds. Prior to the
issuance of any replacement bond, the Paying Agent/Registrar
shall charge the registered owner of such Bond with all legal,
printing, and other expenses in connection therewith. Every
replacement bond issued pursuant to the provisions of this
Section by virtue of the fact that any Bond is lost, stolen, or
destroyed shall constitute a contractual obligation of the
Issuer whether or not the lost, stolen, or destroyed Bond shall
be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all the benefits of this Ordinance equally and
proportionately with any and all other Bonds duly issued under
this Ordinance.
(e) Authority for Issuing Replacement Bonds. In accor-
dance with Section 6 of Vernon's Ann. Tex. Civ. St. Art.
717k-6, this Section 24 of this Ordinance shall constitute
authority for the issuance of any such replacement bond 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 bonds is hereby authorized and imposed upon the Paying
Agent/Registrar, and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall authen-
ticate and deliver such bonds in the form and manner and with
the effect, as provided in Section 4(d) of this Ordinance for
Bonds issued in conversion and exchange for other Bonds.

Certificate on each Initial Bond, and the seal of said Comp-
troller shall be impressed, or placed in facsimile, on each
Initial Bond. The approving legal opinion of the Issuer's Bond
Counsel and the assigned CUSIP numbers may, at the option of
the Issuer, be printed on each Initial Bond or on any Bonds
issued and delivered in conversion of and exchange or replace-
ment of any Bond, but neither shall have any legal effect, and
shall be solely for the convenience and information of the
registered owners of the Bonds.
Section 26. NO ARBITRAGE. The Issuer covenants to and
with the registered owners of the Bonds that it will make no
use of the proceeds of the Bonds at any time throughout the
term of this issue of Bonds which, if such use had been reason-
ably expected on the date of delivery of the Bonds to and
payment for the Bonds by the purchasers, would have caused the
Bonds to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section
103(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, or any
regulations or rulings pertaining thereto; and by this covenant
the Issuer is obligated to comply with the requirements of the
21
aforesaid Section 103(c) and all applicable and pertinent
Department of the Treasury regulations relating to arbitrage
bonds. The Issuer further covenants that the proceeds of the
