generally in denominations of $100,D00 or any integral multiple of $5,000 in excess thereof, to
less than thirty-five sophisticated investors, and therefore SEC Rule lSc2-12 is not applicable to
the offering of the Obligations. Accordingly, no contract to provide continuing disclosure
information after the issuance of the Obligations has been made by the Issuer with investors.
SECTION 37: Book-Entry Only System.
The Obligations may initially be registered so as to participate in a securities depository
system (the DTC System} with the Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, or any
successor entity thereto (DTC), as set forth herein. Each Stated Maturity of the Obligations shall
be issued (following cancellation of the Initial Obligations described in Section 7) in the farm of
a separate single definitive Obligation. Upon issuance, the ownership of each such Obhgatian
shall be registered in the name of Cede & Ca., as the nominee of DTC, and all of the Outstanding
Obligations steal! be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of DTC. The Issuer
and the Paying Agent/Registrar are authorized to execute, deliver, and take the actions set forth
in such letters to or agreements with DTC as shall be necessary to effectuate the DTC System,
including the Letter of Representations attached hereto as Exhibit C {the Representation Letter).
With respect to the Obligations registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of
DTC, the Issuer and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any
broker-dealer, bank, or other financial institution for which DTC holds the Obligations from time
to time as securities depository (a Depository Participant) or to any person on behalf of whom
such a Depository Participant holds an interest in the Obligations (an Indirect Participant}.
Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer and the Paying Agent/Registrar
shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to {i} the- accuracy of the records of DTC,
Cede & Co., or any Depository Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the
Obligations, (ii} the delivery to any Depository Participant or any other person, other than a
registered owner of the Obligations, as shown on the Security Register, of any notice with
respect to the Obligations, including any notice of redemption, or (iii} the delivery to any
Depository Participant or any Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a Holder of an
Obligation, of any amount with respect to principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the
Obligations. While in the DTC System, na person other than Cede & Co., or any successor
thereto, as nominee for DTC, shall receive an Obligation evidencing the obligation of the Issuer
to make payments of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Obligations pursuant to this
Ordinance. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent/Registrar of written notice to the effect
that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Ca., and subject to the
57Q613623 26
provisions in this Ordinance with respect to interest checks ar drafts being mailed to the Holder,
the word "Cede & Co." in this Ordinance shall refer to such new nominee of DTC.
In the event that (a) the Issuer determines that DTC is incapable of discharging its
responsibilities described herein and in the Representation Letter, (b) the Representation Letter
shall be terminated for any reason, or (c) DTC or the Issuer determines that it is in the best
interest of the beneficial owners of the Obligations that they be able to obtain certificated
Obligations, the Issuer shall notify the Paying Agent/Registrar, DTC, and the Depository
Participants of the availability within a .reasonable period of time through DTC of bond
certificates, and the Obligations shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the name of
Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. At that time, the Issuer may determine that the Obligations
shall be registered in the name of and deposited with a successor depository operating a
securities depository system, as may be acceptable to the Issuer, or such depository's agent or
designee, and if the Issuer and the Paying AgentlRegistrar do not select such alternate securities
depository system then the Obligations may be registered in whatever name ar names the
Holders of Obligations transferring or exchanging the Obligations shall designate, in accordance
with the provisions hereof.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance to the contrary, so long as any
Obligation is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, all payments with
respect to principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Obligation and all notices with
respect to such Obligation shall be made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the
Representation Letter.
SECTION 38: Further Procedures. The officers and employees of the Issuer are hereby
authorized, empowered and directed from time to time and at any time to do and perform all such

Ladies and Gentlemen:
1. We understand that the City, from time to time, will consider the issuance of debt
obligations and that in connection with the authorization, issuance, sale and delivery of such obligations
you desire us to perform professional services in the capacity of Financial Advisors for your City.
2. By this proposal, we offer our professional services and our facilities as Financial
Advisors and agree to perform the following duties normally performed by such advisors, and to perform
such other duties as, in our judgment, may be necessary or advisable:
a. We will make a study of the debt structure of your City, the trend of the assessed
valuation, its taxing power and the present and estimated future taxing power and the
present and estimated future taxing requirements, if the revenues of a system or facility
are to be pledged to repayment of the securities in question, the study will take into
account any outstanding obligations which are payable from the net revenues thereof,
additional net revenues to arise from any proposed rate increase and the additional net
revenues as projected by your consulting engineers as a result of the improvements to be
financed by these securities in question; and on the basis of such study, to devise and
recommend for your approval, a plan of financing to cover the proposed bonds. Such
plan shall include a maturity •schedule and other terms and conditions, such as options of
prior payment and the like, as will, in our opinion, result in the issuance of bonds under
terms and conditions most advantageous to your City, consistent with a minimum
effective interest rate.
b. We will assist you in obtaining competitive bids for services rendered from such other
parties associated with the issuance, sale and delivery of the bands.
c. We understand that you have retained, or expect to retain a firm, of recognized municipal
bond attorneys who will prepare the proceedings and advise the steps necessary to be
taken in the bond election, if required, the legal issuance of the bonds, the final delivery
of the bonds and who will issue an opinion approving the legality of the bands, the fee of
said fain to be paid by the City. We will maintain liaison with this firm of bond
attorneys and shall assist in all the financial advisory aspects involved m the preparation
of appropriate Iegal proceedings and documents. {At the City's request, we will assist in

data as may be required in the preparation of the necessary petitions, orders, resolutions,
notices and certificates; and will assist your governing body in the expeditious handling
thereof. We will arrange for the delivery to such official as you may designate such sets
of election supplies, including ballots as are required for each polling place. The cost of
such supplies is to be paid by the City.
e. We agree to prepare the Official Statement or Prospectus containing official data and
other information of the nature and to the extent ordinarily required in bidding on bonds
of this type, all of which we are to furnish in a sufficient number of copies to permit
mailing to prospective bidders, a list of which we agree to provide. The cost of
production and printing the Official Statements is to be paid by the City at a cost not to
exceed $5,000.

other general information and economic data which might normally be expected to
influence interest rates or bidding conditions, so that the date for the sale of any bonds in
the open market can be set at a time which, in our opinion, will be favorable.

for such presentation. All costs of such presentation, including any fees or charges of the rating agencies
and the cost of travel by our representative, shall be at your expense.
