and circumstances in existence on the date of issue and delivery of the Bonds which make it

the rebate requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code. The Issuer covenants and agrees to retain

exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes.

public availability of certain information relating to the Bonds and the security therefor and to
permit the Purchaser and other participating underwriters in the primary offering of the Bonds to
comply with amendments to Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (17 C.F.R. § 240.15c2-12), relating to continuing disclosure(as in effect
and interpreted from time to time,the Rule),which will enhance the marketability of the Bonds,
the City hereby makes the following covenants and agreements for the benefit of the Owners (as
hereinafter defined) from time to time of the Outstanding Bonds. The City is the only obligated
person in respect of the Bonds within the meaning of the Rule for purposes of identifying the

Owners of any Outstanding Bonds, may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear

contained in this section, including an action for a writ of mandamus or specific performance.
Direct, indirect, consequential and punitive damages shall not be recoverable for any default
hereunder to the extent permitted by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, in no event shall a default under this section constitute a default under the Bonds or under
any other provision of this resolution. As used in this section, Owner or Bondowner means, in
respect of a Bond,the registered owner or owners thereof appearing in the bond register
maintained by the Registrar or any Beneficial Owner(as hereinafter defined) thereof, if such

substance reasonably satisfactory to the Registrar. As used herein,Beneficial Owner means, in
respect of a Bond, any person or entity which(i)has the power, directly or indirectly,to vote or

(d) Term; Amendments; Interpretation.
(1) The covenants of the City in this section shall remain in effect so long as any Bonds
are Outstanding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,however,the obligations
of the City under this section shall terminate and be without further effect as of any
date on which the City delivers to the Registrar an opinion of Bond Counsel to the
effect that,because of legislative action or final judicial or administrative actions or
proceedings, the failure of the City to comply with the requirements of this section
will not cause participating underwriters in the primary offering of the Bonds to be

Act of 1934, as amended, or any statutes or laws successory thereto or amendatory
thereof.

change in circumstances that arises from a change in law or regulation or a change in
the identity,nature or status of the City or the type of operations conducted by the
City, or(b) is required by, or better complies with, the provisions of paragraph(b)(5)
of the Rule; (ii)this section as so amended or supplemented would have complied
with the requirements of paragraph(b)(5) of the Rule at the time of the primary
offering of the Bonds, giving effect to any change in circumstances applicable under
clause (i)(a) and assuming that the Rule as in effect and interpreted at the time of the
amendment or supplement was in effect at the time of the primary offering; and(iii)
such amendment or supplement does not materially impair the interests of the
Bondowners under the Rule.
If the Disclosure Information is so amended,the City agrees to provide,
contemporaneously with the effectiveness of such amendment, an explanation of the
reasons for the amendment and the effect, if any, of the change in the type of
