authorized by and described in Section 474.02, Subd.
la, of the Act.
-2-
(b) The purpose of the Project is and the effect
thereof will be to promote the public welfare by:
preventing the emergence of blighted and marginal lands
and areas of chronic unemployment; preventing economic
deterioration; the development of sound industry and
commerce to use the available resources of the com-
munity, in order to retain the benefit of the com-
munity's existing investment in educational and public
service facilities; and halting the movement of talented,
educated personnel to other areas and thus preserving
the economic and human resources needed as a base for
providing governmental services and facilities; and
providing a more adequate tax base to finance the costs
of governmental services.
(c) The Project has been approved by a prelim-
inary resolution of the City Council duly adopted
May 6, 1980, and by the Commissioner of Securities of
the State of Minnesota.

tion and delivery of the Loan Agreement, the Pledge
Agreement and the First Supplemental Escrow Agreement

Agreement and of all other acts and things required to
make the Bond, the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agree-
ment and the First Supplemental Escrow.Agreement
valid and binding obligations of the City in accordance
with their terms, are authorized by the Act.
(e) There is no litigation pending or, to the
best of its knowledge threatened, against the City

deliver the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and
the First Supplemental Escrow Agreement.

ment to which the City is a party or by which it or any
of its property is bound, or be in conflict with,
result in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice
or lapse of time or both) a default under any such
indenture, agreement or other instrument; provided,
-3-
however, that this finding is made solely for the
purpose of estopping the City from denying the validity
of the Bond or any of the documents referenced in this
paragraph by reason of the existence of any facts
contrary to this finding.
(g) The Loan Agreement provides for payments by
the Company to the Bank as Holder of the Bond for the
account of the City of such amounts as will be suf-
ficient to pay the principal of and interest on the

sure or other enforcement of the Mortgage and the
Assignment; the City is not subject to any liability
thereon; no Holder of the Bond shall ever have the
• right to compel the exercise of the taxing power of the

encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property of
the City; and the Bond does not constitute an indebt-
edness of the City within the meaning of any constitu-
tional, statutory or charter limitation.

Council to indicate that any member of the City Council

the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or the Bond,

Project, the Company, the Lessee or the Bank, (iii) is

any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith. The person in whose name the Bond shall be
issued or, if transferred, shall be registered from time to
time shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute Holder
thereof for all purposes, and payment of or on account of
the principal of and interest on the Bond shall be made only
to or upon the order of the Holder thereof, or its attorney
duly authorized in writing, and neither the City, the City
• Clerk, the Company, nor the Bank shall be affected by any

said principal sum is paid, at the rate of Six percent (6.00%)
per annum, calculated on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed in a 360-day year. Interest on this Bond shall be paid
on January 1, 1981, and quarterly thereafter on the first days of
April, July, October and January in each year until maturity, to
and including October 1, 1988, provided, however, that, in the
event that there is a Time of Labor Strife (as defined below) ,
payment of interest accrued during the Time of Labor Strife
("Deferred Interest" ) may be deferred and funded as follows: At

the Bank shall. lend to the Municipality, for the account of the
Company, the amount of the Deferred Interest due on such date.
The amount of such loan shall bear interest ("Additional Interest" )

creditworthy commercial customers on 90-day unsecured loans (the
"Prime Rate" ) , and shall be repaid by the Company to the Bank,
for the account of the Municipality, as additional interest on
the Bond. The total of such Deferred Interest and Additional
• Interest shall be paid in four substantially equal installments
on the 1st days of September, October, November and December in

. will be in addition to any other payment required to be made

be the occurrence of a strike or other work stoppage generally
affecting players for the football teams constituting the National
Football League, including action in the nature of a 'lock-out'
initiated by the owners of such football teams. The existence of
the Time of Labor Strife shall be conclusively evidenced (except
in the case of bad faith) by the delivery to the Bank (or its
permitted sucessor as the holder hereof) of a Certificate of the
Company, signed under oath by Michael E. Lynn, III (or his succesor
as Vice President of the Company) , stating that the Time of Labor
Strife has commenced, setting forth the circumstances thereof and
specifying the commencement date thereof, which shall not be

mencing with such commencement date and ending with the date
which is the earlier of the date specified in a notice of the

thereafter on the 1st days of January, April, July and October in
each year until maturity, principal installments of $100,000
shall be paid and applied to the reduction of the outstanding

• contrary, if a Determination of Taxability, as defined in the
hereinafter-mentioned Loan Agreement, shall be made, this Bond
shall automatically bear interest on the unpaid principal balance
hereof at the rate of 12% per annum and shall be deemed to have
borne such rate from the Date of Taxability, as defined in the
Loan Agreement; and the Company, as hereinafter defined, shall
forthwith pay to the Holder hereof as additional interest the
difference between the amount of interest actually paid from the
Date of Taxability and the amount that would have been paid if
such higher rate had been in effect from the Date of Taxability
and, thereafter, the Company shall pay increased installments of
interest at the rate of 12% per annum for the remaining maturity
of this Bond. Principal and interest shall be paid to the regis-
tered holder hereof in lawful money of the United States at the
office of The First National Bank of Saint Paul, in St. Paul,
