b. Redemption.
i. Optional Redemption. Bonds maturing after June 1, 2028, may be called for
12
optional redemption by the Issuer on that date or any date thereafter, from any
funds regardless of source, in whole or from time to time in part, in any order of
maturity and within an annual maturity by lot. The terms of redemption shall be
par, plus accrued interest to date of call.
Thirty days' written notice of redemption shall be given to the registered owner
of the Bond. Failure to give written notice to any registered owner of the Bonds
or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the re-
demption of the Bonds. All Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption will
cease to bear interest after the specified redemption date, provided funds for their
redemption are on deposit at the place of payment. Written notice will be deemed
completed upon transmission to the owner of record.
If selection by lot within a maturity is required, the Registrar shall designate
the Bonds to be redeemed by random selection of the names of the registered
owners of the entire annual maturity until the total amount of Bonds to be called
has been reached.
If less than all of a maturity is called for redemption, the Issuer will notify DTC
of the particular amount of such maturity to be redeemed prior to maturity. DTC
will determine by lot the amount of each Participant's interest in such maturity to
be redeemed and each Participant will then select by lot the beneficial ownership
interests in such maturity to be redeemed. All prepayments shall be at a price of
par plus accrued interest.
Section 7. Issuance of Bonds in Book -Entry Form; Replacement Bonds.
a. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Resolution regarding registra-
tion, ownership, transfer, payment and exchange of the Bonds, unless the Issuer
determines to permit the exchange of Depository Bonds for Bonds in Authorized
Denominations, the Bonds shall be issued as Depository Bonds in denominations
of the entire principal amount of each maturity of Bonds (or, if a portion of said
principal amount is prepaid, said principal amount less the prepaid amount). The
Bonds must be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. Pay-
ment of semiannual interest for any Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co.
will be made by wire transfer or New York Clearing House or equivalent next day
funds to the account of Cede & Co. on the interest payment date for the Bonds
at the address indicated or in the Representation Letter.
b. The Bonds will be initially issued in the form of separate single authenticated
fully registered bonds in the amount of each stated maturity of the Bonds. Upon
initial issuance, the ownership of the Bonds will be registered in the registry books
of the UMB Bank, N.A. kept by the Paying Agent and Registrar in the name of
Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. The Paying Agent and Registrar and the Issuer
may treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Bonds
registered in its name for the purposes of payment of the principal or redemption
price of or interest on the Bonds, selecting the Bonds or portions to be redeemed,
giving any notice permitted or required to be given to registered owners of Bonds
under the Resolution of the Issuer, registering the transfer of Bonds, obtaining
any consent or other action to be taken by registered owners of the Bonds and
for other purposes. The Paying Agent, Registrar and the Issuer have no respon-
sibility or obligation to any Participant or Beneficial Owner of the Bonds under or
13
through DTC with respect to the accuracy of records maintained by DTC or any
Participant; with respect to the payment by DTC or Participant of an amount of
principal or redemption price of or interest on the Bonds; with respect to any no-
tice given to owners of Bonds under the Resolution; with respect to the Partici-
pant(s) selected to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the
Bonds, or a consent given or other action taken by DTC as registered owner of
the Bonds. The Paying Agent and Registrar shall pay all principal of and premium,
if any, and interest on the Bonds only to Cede & Co. in accordance with the Rep-
resentation Letter, and all payments are valid and effective to fully satisfy and
discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the principal of and premium, if
any, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum paid. DTC must receive
an authenticated Bond for each separate stated maturity evidencing the obliga-
tion of the Issuer to make payments of principal of and premium, if any, and in-
terest. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent and Registrar of written notice
that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co.,
the Bonds will be transferable to the new nominee in accordance with this Sec-
tion.
c. In the event the Issuer determines that it is in the best interest of the Bene-
ficial Owners that they be able to obtain Bonds certificates, the Issuer may notify
DTC and the Paying Agent and Registrar, whereupon DTC will notify the Partici-
pants, of the availability through DTC of Bonds certificates. The Bonds will be
transferable in accordance with this Section. DTC may determine to discontinue
providing its services with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving notice to the
Issuer and the Paying Agent and Registrar and discharging its responsibilities
under applicable law. In this event, the Bonds will be transferable in accordance
with this Section.
d. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Resolution to the contrary, so
long as any Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC,
all payments with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on
the Bond and all notices must be made and given, respectively to DTC as pro-
vided in the Representation letter.
e. In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to
Bondholders by the Issuer or the Paying Agent and Registrar with respect to a
consent or other action to be taken by Bondholders, the Issuer or the Paying
Agent and Registrar, as the case may be, shall establish a record date for the
consent or other action and give DTC notice of the record date not less than 15
calendar days in advance of the record date to the extent possible. Notice to DTC
must be given only when DTC is the sole Bondholder.
f. The Representation Letter is on file with DTC and sets forth certain matters
with respect to, among other things, notices, consents and approvals by Bond-
holders and payments on the Bonds. The execution and delivery of the Repre-
sentation Letter to DTC by the Issuer is ratified and confirmed.
g. In the event that a transfer or exchange of the Bonds is permitted under this
Section, the transfer or exchange may be accomplished upon receipt by the Reg-
istrar from the registered owners of the Bonds to be transferred or exchanged
and appropriate instruments of transfer. In the event Bond certificates are issued
14
to holders other than Cede & Co., its successor as nominee for DTC as holder of
all the Bonds, or other securities depository as holder of all the Bonds, the provi-
sions of the Resolution apply to, among other things, the printing of certificates
and the method or payment of principal of and interest on the certificates. Any
substitute depository shall be designated in writing by the Issuer to the Paying
Agent. Any such substitute depository shall be a qualified and registered "clearing
agency" as provided in Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. The substitute depository shall provide for (i) immobilization of the De-
pository Bonds, (ii) registration and transfer of interests in Depository Bonds by
book entries made on records of the depository or its nominee and (iii) payment
of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds in accordance with and
as such interests may appear with respect to such book entries.
h. The officers of the Issuer are authorized and directed to prepare and furnish
to the purchaser, and to the attorneys approving the legality of Bonds, certified
copies of proceedings, ordinances, resolutions and records and all certificates
and affidavits and other instruments as may be required to evidence the legality
and marketability of the Bonds, and all certified copies, certificates, affidavits and
other instruments constitute representations of the Issuer as to the correctness
of all stated or recited facts.
Section 8. Registration of Bonds; Appointment of Registrar; Transfer; Ownership; De-
livery; and Cancellation.
a. Registration. The ownership of Bonds may be transferred only by the mak-
ing of an entry upon the books kept for the registration and transfer of ownership
of the Bonds, and in no other way. UMB Bank, N.A. is hereby appointed as Bond
Registrar under the terms of this Resolution and under the provisions of a sepa-
rate agreement with the Issuer filed herewith which is made a part hereof by this
reference. Registrar shall maintain the books of the Issuer for the registration of
ownership of the Bonds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds
as provided in this Resolution. All Bonds shall be negotiable as provided in Article
8 of the Uniform Commercial Code and Section 384.31 of the Code of Iowa, sub-
ject to the provisions for registration and transfer contained in the Bonds and in
this Resolution.
b. Transfer. The ownership of any Bond may be transferred only upon the
Registration Books kept for the registration and transfer of Bonds and only upon
surrender thereof at the office of the Registrar together with an assignment duly
executed by the holder or his duly authorized attorney in fact in such form as shall
be satisfactory to the Registrar, along with the address and social security num-
ber or federal employer identification number of such transferee (or, if registration
is to be made in the name of multiple individuals, of all such transferees). In the
event that the address of the registered owner of a Bond (other than a registered
owner which is the nominee of the broker or dealer in question) is that of a broker
or dealer, there must be disclosed on the Registration Books the information per-
taining to the registered owner required above. Upon the transfer of any such
Bond, a new fully registered Bond, of any denomination or denominations per-
mitted by this Resolution in aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured
and unredeemed principal amount of such transferred fully registered Bond, and
15
bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date or dates shall
be delivered by the Registrar.
c. Registration of Transferred Bonds. In all cases of the transfer of the Bonds,
the Registrar shall register, at the earliest practicable time, on the Registration
Books, the Bonds, in accordance with the provisions of this Resolution.
d. Ownership. As to any Bond, the person in whose name the ownership of
the same shall be registered on the Registration Books of the Registrar shall be
deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and pay-
ment of or on account of the principal of any such Bonds and the premium, if any,
and interest thereon shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered
owner thereof or his legal representative. All such payments shall be valid and
effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond, including the inter-
est thereon, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
e. Cancellation. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall not be reissued
but shall be cancelled by the Registrar. All Bonds which are cancelled by the
Registrar shall be destroyed and a certificate of the destruction thereof shall be
furnished promptly to the Issuer; provided that if the Issuer shall so direct, the
Registrar shall forward the cancelled Bonds to the Issuer.
f. Non -Presentment of Bonds. In the event any payment check, wire, or elec-
tronic transfer of funds representing payment of principal of or interest on the
Bonds is returned to the Paying Agent or if any bond is not presented for payment
of principal at the maturity or redemption date, if funds sufficient to pay such prin-
cipal of or interest on Bonds shall have been made available to the Paying Agent
for the benefit of the owner thereof, all liability of the Issuer to the owner thereof
for such interest or payment of such Bonds shall forthwith cease, terminate and
be completely discharged, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Paying Agent
to hold such funds, without liability for interest thereon, for the benefit of the owner
of such Bonds who shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any
claim of whatever nature on his part under this Resolution or on, or with respect
to, such interest or Bonds. The Paying Agent's obligation to hold such funds shall
continue for a period equal to two years and six months following the date on
which such interest or principal became due, whether at maturity, or at the date
fixed for redemption thereof, or otherwise, at which time the Paying Agent shall
surrender any remaining funds so held to the Issuer, whereupon any claim under
this Resolution by the Owners of such interest or Bonds of whatever nature shall
be made upon the Issuer.
g. Registration and Transfer Fees. The Registrar may furnish to each owner,
at the Issuer's expense, one bond for each annual maturity. The Registrar shall
furnish additional Bonds in lesser denominations (but not less than the minimum
denomination) to an owner who so requests.
Section 9. Reissuance of Mutilated, Destroyed, Stolen or Lost Bonds. In case any out-
standing Bond shall become mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Issuer shall at
the request of Registrar authenticate and deliver a new Bond of like tenor and amount as
the Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in exchange and substitution for such
mutilated Bond to Registrar, upon surrender of such mutilated Bond, or in lieu of and
substitution for the Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, upon filing with the Registrar evidence
16
satisfactory to the Registrar and Issuer that such Bond has been destroyed, stolen or lost
and proof of ownership thereof, and upon furnishing the Registrar and Issuer with satis-
factory indemnity and complying with such other reasonable regulations as the Issuer or
its agent may prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer may incur in connection
therewith.
Section 10 Record Date. Payments of principal and interest, otherwise than upon full
redemption, made in respect of any Bond, shall be made to the registered holder thereof
or to their designated agent as the same appear on the books of the Registrar on the 15th
day of the month preceding the payment date. All such payments shall fully discharge the
obligations of the Issuer in respect of such Bonds to the extent of the payments so made.
Upon receipt of the final payment of principal, the holder of the Bond shall surrender the
Bond to the Paying Agent.
Section 11. Execution, Authentication and Delivery of the Bonds. Upon the adoption of
this Resolution, the Mayor and Clerk shall execute the Bonds by their manual or author-
ized signature and deliver the Bonds to the Registrar, who shall authenticate the Bonds
and deliver the same to or upon order of the Purchaser. No Bond shall be valid or oblig-
atory for any purpose or shall be entitled to any right or benefit hereunder unless the
Registrar shall duly endorse and execute on such Bond a Certificate of Authentication
substantially in the form of the Certificate herein set forth. Such Certificate upon any Bond
executed on behalf of the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence that the Bond so authenti-
cated has been duly issued under this Resolution and that the holder thereof is entitled
to the benefits of this Resolution.
No Bonds shall be authenticated and delivered by the Registrar unless and until there
shall have been provided the following:
1. A certified copy of the Resolution of Issuer authorizing the issuance of the
Bonds;
2. A written order of Issuer signed by the Treasurer of the Issuer directing the
authentication and delivery of the Bonds to or upon the order of the Purchaser upon
payment of the purchase price as set forth therein;
3. The approving opinion of Ahlers & Cooney, P.C., Bond Counsel, concerning
the validity and legality of all the Bonds proposed to be issued.
Section 12. Right to Name Substitute Paying Agent or Registrar. Issuer reserves the
right to name a substitute, successor Registrar or Paying Agent upon giving prompt writ-
ten notice to each registered bondholder.
Section 13. Form of Bond. Bonds shall be printed substantially in the form as [pro-
vided]-
Section 14. Closing Documents. The Mayor and City Clerk are authorized and directed
to execute, attest, seal and deliver for and on behalf of the City any other additional cer-
tificates, documents, or other papers and perform all other acts, including without limita-
tion the execution of all closing documents, as they may deem necessary or appropriate
in order to implement and carry out the intent and purposes of this Resolution.
Section 15. Contract Between Issuer and Purchaser. This Resolution constitutes a
contract between said City and the purchaser of the Bonds.
Section 16. Non -Arbitrage Covenants. The Issuer reasonably expects and covenants
that no use will be made of the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Bonds issued
hereunder which will cause any of the Bonds to be classified as arbitrage bonds within
17
the meaning of Sections 148(a) and (b) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States,
as amended, and that throughout the term of the Bonds it will comply with the require-
ments of statutes and regulations issued thereunder.
To the best knowledge and belief of the Issuer, there are no facts or circumstances
that would materially change the foregoing statements or the conclusion that it is not ex-
pected that the proceeds of the Bonds will be used in a manner that would cause the
Bonds to be arbitrage bonds.
Section 17 Approval of Tax Exemption Certificate. Attached hereto is a form of Tax
Exemption Certificate stating the Issuer's reasonable expectations as to the use of the
proceeds of the Bonds. The form of Tax Exemption Certificate is approved. The Issuer
hereby agrees to comply with the provisions of the Tax Exemption Certificate and the
provisions of the Tax Exemption Certificate are hereby incorporated by reference as part
of this Resolution. The Director of Finance & Budget is hereby directed to make and insert
all calculations and determinations necessary to complete the Tax Exemption Certificate
at issuance of the Bonds to certify as to the reasonable expectations and covenants of
the Issuer at that date.
Section 18. Continuing Disclosure. The Issuer hereby covenants and agrees that it will
comply with and carry out all of the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate,
and the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate are hereby incorporated by
reference as part of this Resolution and made a part hereof. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Resolution, failure of the Issuer to comply with the Continuing Disclosure
Certificate shall not be considered an event of default under this Resolution; however,
any holder of the Bonds or Beneficial Owner may take such actions as may be necessary
and appropriate, including seeking specific performance by court order, to cause the Is-
suer to comply with its obligations under the Continuing Disclosure Certificate. For pur-
poses of this section, "Beneficial Owner" means any person which (a) has the power,
directly or indirectly, to vote or consent with respect to, or to dispose of ownership of, any
Bond (including persons holding Bonds through nominees, depositories or other interme-
diaries), or (b) is treated as the owner of any Bonds for federal income tax purposes.
Section 19. Additional Covenants, Representations and Warranties of the Issuer. The
Issuer certifies and covenants with the purchasers and holders of the Bonds from time to
time outstanding that the Issuer through its officers, (a) will make such further specific
covenants, representations and assurances as may be necessary or advisable; (b) com-
ply with all representations, covenants and assurances contained in the Tax Exemption
Certificate, which Tax Exemption Certificate shall constitute a part of the contract between
the Issuer and the owners of the Bonds;(c) consult with Bond Counsel (as defined in the
Tax Exemption Certificate); (d) pay to the United States, as necessary, such sums of
money representing required rebates of excess arbitrage profits relating to the Bonds;(e)
file such forms, statements and supporting documents as may be required and in a timely
manner; and (f) if deemed necessary or advisable by its officers, to employ and pay fiscal
agents, financial advisors, attorneys and other persons to assist the Issuer in such com-
pliance.
Section 20 Amendment of Resolution to Maintain Tax Exemption. This Resolution may
be amended without the consent of any owner of the Bonds if, in the opinion of Bond
Counsel, such amendment is necessary to maintain tax exemption with respect to the
Bonds under applicable Federal law or regulations.
Section 21. Repeal of Conflicting Resolutions or Ordinances. All ordinances and reso-
lutions and parts of ordinances and resolutions in conflict herewith are hereby repealed.
Section 22 Severability Clause. If any section, paragraph, clause or provision of this
Resolution be held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any of the remaining provisions
hereof, and this Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and ap-
proval.

b. Redemption.

i. Optional Redemption. Bonds maturing after June 1, 2028, may be called for
optional redemption by the Issuer on that date or any date thereafter, from any funds
regardless of source, in whole or from time to time in part, in any order of maturity
and within an annual maturity by lot. The terms of redemption shall be par, plus
accrued interest to date of call.
Thirty days' written notice of redemption shall be given to the registered owner of
the Bond. Failure to give written notice to any registered owner of the Bonds or any
defect therein shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the redemption of
the Bonds. All Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption will cease to bear
interest after the specified redemption date, provided funds for their redemption are
on deposit at the place of payment. Written notice will be deemed completed upon
transmission to the owner of record.
If selection by lot within a maturity is required, the Registrar shall designate the
Bonds to be redeemed by random selection of the names of the registered owners
of the entire annual maturity until the total amount of Bonds to be called has been
reached.
If less than all of a maturity is called for redemption, the Issuer will notify DTC of
the particular amount of such maturity to be redeemed prior to maturity. DTC will
determine by lot the amount of each Participant's interest in such maturity to be
redeemed and each Participant will then select by lot the beneficial ownership inter-
ests in such maturity to be redeemed. All prepayments shall be at a price of par plus
accrued interest.
Section 7. Issuance of Bonds in Book -Entry Form; Replacement Bonds.
a. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Resolution regarding registration,
ownership, transfer, payment and exchange of the Bonds, unless the Issuer deter-
mines to permit the exchange of Depository Bonds for Bonds in Authorized Denom-
inations, the Bonds shall be issued as Depository Bonds in denominations of the
entire principal amount of each maturity of Bonds (or, if a portion of said principal
amount is prepaid, said principal amount less the prepaid amount). The Bonds must
be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. Payment of semian-
nual interest for any Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co. will be made by
wire transfer or New York Clearing House or equivalent next day funds to the ac-
count of Cede & Co. on the interest payment date for the Bonds at the address
indicated or in the Representation Letter.
b. The Bonds will be initially issued in the form of separate single authenticated
fully registered bonds in the amount of each stated maturity of the Bonds. Upon
initial issuance, the ownership of the Bonds will be registered in the registry books
of the UMB Bank, N.A. kept by the Paying Agent and Registrar in the name of Cede
& Co., as nominee of DTC. The Paying Agent and Registrar and the Issuer may
treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Bonds registered
in its name for the purposes of payment of the principal or redemption price of or
interest on the Bonds, selecting the Bonds or portions to be redeemed, giving any
notice permitted or required to be given to registered owners of Bonds under the
Resolution of the Issuer, registering the transfer of Bonds, obtaining any consent or
other action to be taken by registered owners of the Bonds and for other purposes.
The Paying Agent, Registrar and the Issuer have no responsibility or obligation to
25
any Participant or Beneficial Owner of the Bonds under or through DTC with respect
to the accuracy of records maintained by DTC or any Participant; with respect to the
payment by DTC or Participant of an amount of principal or redemption price of or
interest on the Bonds; with respect to any notice given to owners of Bonds under
the Resolution; with respect to the Participant(s) selected to receive payment in the
event of a partial redemption of the Bonds, or a consent given or other action taken
by DTC as registered owner of the Bonds. The Paying Agent and Registrar shall
pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to Cede &
Co. in accordance with the Representation Letter, and all payments are valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum
paid. DTC must receive an authenticated Bond for each separate stated maturity
evidencing the obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal of and pre-
mium, if any, and interest. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent and Registrar
of written notice that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of
Cede & Co., the Bonds will be transferable to the new nominee in accordance with
this Section.
c. In the event the Issuer determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial
Owners that they be able to obtain Bonds certificates, the Issuer may notify DTC
and the Paying Agent and Registrar, whereupon DTC will notify the Participants, of
the availability through DTC of Bonds certificates. The Bonds will be transferable in
accordance with this Section. DTC may determine to discontinue providing its ser-
vices with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving notice to the Issuer and the
Paying Agent and Registrar and discharging its responsibilities under applicable
law. In this event, the Bonds will be transferable in accordance with this Section.
d. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Resolution to the contrary, so long
as any Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, all pay-
ments with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bond
and all notices must be made and given, respectively to DTC as provided in the
Representation letter.
e. In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to Bond-
holders by the Issuer or the Paying Agent and Registrar with respect to a consent
or other action to be taken by Bondholders, the Issuer or the Paying Agent and
Registrar, as the case may be, shall establish a record date for the consent or other
action and give DTC notice of the record date not less than 15 calendar days in
advance of the record date to the extent possible. Notice to DTC must be given only
when DTC is the sole Bondholder.
f. The Representation Letter is on file with DTC and sets forth certain matters with
respect to, among other things, notices, consents and approvals by Bondholders
and payments on the Bonds. The execution and delivery of the Representation Let-
ter to DTC by the Issuer is ratified and confirmed.
g. In the event that a transfer or exchange of the Bonds is permitted under this
Section, the transfer or exchange may be accomplished upon receipt by the Regis-
trar from the registered owners of the Bonds to be transferred or exchanged and
appropriate instruments of transfer. In the event Bond certificates are issued to hold-
ers other than Cede & Co., its successor as nominee for DTC as holder of all the
26
Bonds, or other securities depository as holder of all the Bonds, the provisions of
the Resolution apply to, among other things, the printing of certificates and the
method or payment of principal of and interest on the certificates. Any substitute
depository shall be designated in writing by the Issuer to the Paying Agent. Any such
substitute depository shall be a qualified and registered "clearing agency" as pro-
vided in Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The
substitute depository shall provide for (i) immobilization of the Depository Bonds, (ii)
registration and transfer of interests in Depository Bonds by book entries made on
records of the depository or its nominee and (iii) payment of principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on the Bonds in accordance with and as such interests may
appear with respect to such book entries.
h. The officers of the Issuer are authorized and directed to prepare and furnish to
the purchaser, and to the attorneys approving the legality of Bonds, certified copies
of proceedings, ordinances, resolutions and records and all certificates and affida-
vits and other instruments as may be required to evidence the legality and market-
ability of the Bonds, and all certified copies, certificates, affidavits and other instru-
ments constitute representations of the Issuer as to the correctness of all stated or
recited facts.
Section 8. Registration of Bonds; Appointment of Registrar; Transfer; Ownership; De-
livery; and Cancellation.
a. Registration. The ownership of Bonds may be transferred only by the making
of an entry upon the books kept for the registration and transfer of ownership of the
Bonds, and in no other way. UMB Bank, N.A. is hereby appointed as Bond Registrar
under the terms of this Resolution and under the provisions of a separate agreement
with the Issuer filed herewith which is made a part hereof by this reference. Registrar
shall maintain the books of the Issuer for the registration of ownership of the Bonds
for the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds as provided in this Reso-
lution. All Bonds shall be negotiable as provided in Article 8 of the Uniform Com-
mercial Code and Section 384.31 of the Code of Iowa, subject to the provisions for
registration and transfer contained in the Bonds and in this Resolution.
b. Transfer. The ownership of any Bond may be transferred only upon the Reg-
istration Books kept for the registration and transfer of Bonds and only upon surren-
der thereof at the office of the Registrar together with an assignment duly executed
by the holder or his duly authorized attorney in fact in such form as shall be satis-
factory to the Registrar, along with the address and social security number or federal
employer identification number of such transferee (or, if registration is to be made
in the name of multiple individuals, of all such transferees). In the event that the
address of the registered owner of a Bond (other than a registered owner which is
the nominee of the broker or dealer in question) is that of a broker or dealer, there
must be disclosed on the Registration Books the information pertaining to the reg-
istered owner required above. Upon the transfer of any such Bond, a new fully reg-
istered Bond, of any denomination or denominations permitted by this Resolution in
aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured and unredeemed principal
amount of such transferred fully registered Bond, and bearing interest at the same
rate and maturing on the same date or dates shall be delivered by the Registrar.
c. Registration of Transferred Bonds. In all cases of the transfer of the Bonds, the
27
Registrar shall register, at the earliest practicable time, on the Registration Books,
the Bonds, in accordance with the provisions of this Resolution.
d. Ownership. As to any Bond, the person in whose name the ownership of the
same shall be registered on the Registration Books of the Registrar shall be deemed
and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of or on
account of the principal of any such Bonds and the premium, if any, and interest
thereon shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered owner thereof or
his legal representative. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and
discharge the liability upon such Bond, including the interest thereon, to the extent
of the sum or sums so paid.
e. Cancellation. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall not be reissued but
shall be cancelled by the Registrar. All Bonds which are cancelled by the Registrar
shall be destroyed and a certificate of the destruction thereof shall be furnished
promptly to the Issuer; provided that if the Issuer shall so direct, the Registrar shall
forward the cancelled Bonds to the Issuer.
f. Non -Presentment of Bonds. In the event any payment check, wire, or electronic
transfer of funds representing payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds is
returned to the Paying Agent or if any bond is not presented for payment of principal
at the maturity or redemption date, if funds sufficient to pay such principal of or in-
terest on Bonds shall have been made available to the Paying Agent for the benefit
of the owner thereof, all liability of the Issuer to the owner thereof for such interest
or payment of such Bonds shall forthwith cease, terminate and be completely dis-
charged, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Paying Agent to hold such funds,
without liability for interest thereon, for the benefit of the owner of such Bonds who
shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any claim of whatever
nature on his part under this Resolution or on, or with respect to, such interest or
Bonds. The Paying Agent's obligation to hold such funds shall continue for a period
equal to two years and six months following the date on which such interest or prin-
cipal became due, whether at maturity, or at the date fixed for redemption thereof,
or otherwise, at which time the Paying Agent shall surrender any remaining funds
so held to the Issuer, whereupon any claim under this Resolution by the Owners of
such interest or Bonds of whatever nature shall be made upon the Issuer.
g. Registration and Transfer Fees. The Registrar may furnish to each owner, at
the Issuer's expense, one bond for each annual maturity. The Registrar shall furnish
additional Bonds in lesser denominations (but not less than the minimum denomi-
nation) to an owner who so requests.
Section 9. Reissuance of Mutilated, Destroyed, Stolen or Lost Bonds. In case any out-
standing Bond shall become mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Issuer shall at
the request of Registrar authenticate and deliver a new Bond of like tenor and amount as
the Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in exchange and substitution for such
mutilated Bond to Registrar, upon surrender of such mutilated Bond, or in lieu of and
substitution for the Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, upon filing with the Registrar evidence
satisfactory to the Registrar and Issuer that such Bond has been destroyed, stolen or lost
and proof of ownership thereof, and upon furnishing the Registrar and Issuer with satis-
factory indemnity and complying with such other reasonable regulations as the Issuer or
its agent may prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer may incur in connection
therewith.
Section 10. Record Date. Payments of principal and interest, otherwise than upon full
redemption, made in respect of any Bond, shall be made to the registered holder thereof
or to their designated agent as the same appear on the books of the Registrar on the 15th
day of the month preceding the payment date. All such payments shall fully discharge the
obligations of the Issuer in respect of such Bonds to the extent of the payments so made.
Upon receipt of the final payment of principal, the holder of the Bond shall surrender the
Bond to the Paying Agent.
Section 11. Execution, Authentication and Delivery of the Bonds. Upon the adoption of
this Resolution, the Mayor and Clerk shall execute the Bonds by their manual or author-
ized signature and deliver the Bonds to the Registrar, who shall authenticate the Bonds
and deliver the same to or upon order of the Purchaser. No Bond shall be valid or oblig-
atory for any purpose or shall be entitled to any right or benefit hereunder unless the
Registrar shall duly endorse and execute on such Bond a Certificate of Authentication
substantially in the form of the Certificate herein set forth. Such Certificate upon any Bond
executed on behalf of the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence that the Bond so authenti-
cated has been duly issued under this Resolution and that the holder thereof is entitled
to the benefits of this Resolution.
No Bonds shall be authenticated and delivered by the Registrar unless and until there
shall have been provided the following:
1. A certified copy of the Resolution of Issuer authorizing the issuance of the
Bonds;
2. A written order of Issuer signed by the Treasurer of the Issuer directing the
authentication and delivery of the Bonds to or upon the order of the Purchaser upon
payment of the purchase price as set forth therein;
3. The approving opinion of Ahlers & Cooney, P.C., Bond Counsel, concerning
the validity and legality of all the Bonds proposed to be issued.
Section 12. Right to Name Substitute Paying Agent or Registrar. Issuer reserves the
right to name a substitute, successor Registrar or Paying Agent upon giving prompt writ-
ten notice to each registered bondholder.
Section 13. Form of Bond. Bonds shall be printed substantially in the form as [pro-
vided]-
Section 14. Closing Documents. The Mayor and City Clerk are authorized and directed
to execute, attest, seal and deliver for and on behalf of the City any other additional cer-
tificates, documents, or other papers and perform all other acts, including without limita-
tion the execution of all closing documents, as they may deem necessary or appropriate
in order to implement and carry out the intent and purposes of this Resolution.
Section 15. Contract Between Issuer and Purchaser. This Resolution constitutes a
contract between said City and the purchaser of the Bonds.
Section 16. Continuing Disclosure. The Issuer hereby covenants and agrees that it will
comply with and carry out all of the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate,
and the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate are hereby incorporated by
reference as part of this Resolution and made a part hereof. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Resolution, failure of the Issuer to comply with the Continuing Disclosure
Certificate shall not be considered an event of default under this Resolution; however,
any holder of the Bonds or Beneficial Owner may take such actions as may be necessary
29
and appropriate, including seeking specific performance by court order, to cause the Is-
suer to comply with its obligations under the Continuing Disclosure Certificate. For pur-
poses of this section, "Beneficial Owner" means any person which (a) has the power,
directly or indirectly, to vote or consent with respect to, or to dispose of ownership of, any
Bond (including persons holding Bonds through nominees, depositories or other interme-
diaries), or (b) is treated as the owner of any Bonds for federal income tax purposes.
Section 17. Repeal of Conflicting Resolutions or Ordinances. All ordinances and reso-
lutions and parts of ordinances and resolutions in conflict herewith are hereby repealed.
Section 18. Severability Clause. If any section, paragraph, clause or provision of this
Resolution be held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any of the remaining provisions
hereof, and this Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and ap-
proval.
