Chief Financial Officer Jennifer Larson is recommending City Council approval of the
suggested proceedings to complete action required for the $2,330,000 Water Revenue
Bonds, Series 2026 (State Revolving Loan Fund Program) North English Road Water
Main prepared by Bond Counsel and to present a resolution for City Council to adopt

Agreement and providing for the issuance of $2,330,000 Water Revenue Bonds, Series
2026 and other documents related to the Series 2026 Bonds."
The City of Dubuque is looking to address necessary improvements associated with its
water distribution system. These improvements will address water resiliency, reduce
bottlenecks, improve water storage and pumping at key locations throughout the
community to support the existing customer base, and prepare the city for increased
demands associated with the existing and new customers. The project will also assist
the City's need to reduce and better manage dead-end water mains and other areas
where the water age and water quality can suffer due to lack of circulation.
The North English Road water main extension (at the west terminus of the Southwest
Arterial water main extension) creates a path for a future loop and connection of Pressure
Zone 3 and 4, when in later phases it can extend to English Mill Road and then south
from there to the English Mill Pump Station.
The State Revolving Fund loan will have an interest rate of 2.90%, a maturity date of June
1, 2045, and will be abated from the water fund.

DATE: January 29, 2026
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide suggested proceedings to complete action
for the issuance of $2,330,000 Water Revenue Bonds, Series 2026 (State Revolving Loan
Fund Program) North English Road Water Main.
BACKGROUND
The City of Dubuque is looking to address necessary improvements associated with its
water distribution system. These improvements will address water resiliency, reduce
bottlenecks, improve water storage and pumping at key locations throughout the community
to support the existing customer base, and prepare the city for increased demands
associated with the existing and new customers. The project will also assist the City's need
to reduce and better manage dead-end water mains and other areas where the water age
and water quality can suffer due to lack of circulation.
Through the Request for Engineering Proposal process 2022, Origin Design was awarded
the City -Wide Water Distribution System, Storage, and Pumping Improvements Project to
complete design of the five improvements. Origin also prepared and assisted the City in
securing an Iowa SRF Intended Use Plan (IUP) Application for the proposed improvements,
and a P&D Loan.
One of the five projects in the City -Wide Water Distribution System, Storage, and Pumping
Improvements Project is the N. Cascade Road and SW Arterial Water Main Extension
project that will bring water service to a portion of the SW Arterial and allow continued
extensions, looping water main along the SW Arterial from US Highway 151/61 to US
Highway 20 while also providing service between pressure zones and increasing water
service reliance to the City's southern- and western -most customers.
Page 756 of 865
Origin Design has completed the plans for the installation of a 12-inch water main extension
starting at Edval Lane on North Cascade Road south to the SW Arterial. At the intersection
with the SW Arterial, the original project scope included a water main loop that would head
east along the SW Arterial in the direction of Military Road toward Tamarack Industrial Park.
The project scope was amended to include water main that would also head west along the
SW Arterial to North English Road, then turning north along North English Road for
approximately 1,100 feet.
DISCUSSION
The North English Road water main extension (at the west terminus of the Southwest
Arterial water main extension) creates a path for a future loop and connection of Pressure
Zone 3 and 4, when in later phases it can extend to English Mill Road and then south from
there to the English Mill Pump Station.
The SW Arterial water main extension (along with the North Cascade Road water main
extension) creates an arterial water main loop that extends from the southwest end to the
south end of Pressure Zone 3. The Southwest Arterial water main extension consists of a
16-in arterial water main connecting the end of the North English Road water main extension
to the existing 16-in arterial water main located at the Tamarack Industrial Park. There will
also be a tie-in mid -route to the 16-in arterial water main at Military Road. The proposed
water main extension is planned to be located within existing roadway ROW with only one
utility easement required along the entirety of the proposed water main route. The project
will include the following:
• Approximately 22,150 LF of 16-in water main with 30 buried butterfly valves
• 24 fire hydrants, located at approximately 1,000-ft intervals, with 6-in DI leads and
isolation gate valves
• Two (2) creek/stream crossings including water valve manholes
• Three (3) Bored Casings (approximately 650 LF) for 16-in Water Main at crossing
of Military Road, North Cascade Road, and the Southwest Arterial.
The North English Road and SW Arterial portions west of North Cascade Road were not
part of the original IUP submitted and approved in 2022. The IUP was updated in November
2024 to include the costs associated with the revised scope. The estimated costs associated
with the additional 1,100 LF of water main along North English Road are $305,000, and
changes to the SW Arterial extension portion of the project are $1,580,000, totaling
$1,885,000.
The State Revolving Fund loan will have an interest rate of 2.90%, a maturity date of June
1, 2045, and will be abated from the water fund.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
I respectfully recommend the adoption of the enclosed resolution to complete the action
required on the $2.33 million in Water Revenue Bonds, Series 2026 (State Revolving Loan
Fund Program) for the North English Road Water Main.

the City Hall or principal office of the City on a bulletin board or other prominent place which is
easily accessible to the public and is the place designated for the purpose of posting notices of
meetings.
We further certify as follows:
1. The total costs of the Project (the "Total Project Costs"), including engineering
fees, are currently estimated to be at least $2,330,000.
2. The net sales proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond are $2,330,000 (the "Net Sales
Proceeds"), the same being the Issue Price thereof.
3. The Net Sales Proceeds, including investment earnings thereon, will be invested by
the City without restriction as to yield for a period not to exceed three years from the date hereof
(the "Three Year Temporary Period"), the following three tests being reasonably expected to be
satisfied by the City:
a. Time Test: The City has entered into or, within six months of the date
hereof, will enter into binding contracts for the Project with third parties (e.g. engineers or
contractors);
(i) which are not subject to contingencies directly or indirectly within
the City's control;
(ii) which provide for the payment by the City to such third parties of
an amount equal to at least 5% of the Net Sales Proceeds;
b. Expenditure Test: At least 85% of Net Sales Proceeds will be applied to the
payment of Total Project Costs within the Three -Year Temporary Period; and
C. Due Diligence Test: Acquisition and construction of the Project to
completion and application of the Net Sales Proceeds to the payment of Total Project Costs
will proceed with due diligence.
6. It is anticipated that the Net Sales Proceeds will be used to finance the costs of the
Project and pay costs of issuance. The estimated completion date of the Project is February 7,
2028.
7. The Series 2026 Bond is payable from Net Revenues of the System which will be
collected in a Sinking Fund and applied to the payment of interest on the Series 2026 Bond on
each June 1 and December 1 and principal of the Series 2026 Bond on each June 1 (the 12-month
Page 780 of 865
period ending on each June 1 being herein referred to as a "Bond Year"); the Sinking Fund is used
primarily to achieve a proper matching of revenues with principal and interest payments within
each Bond Year; the Sinking Fund will be depleted at least once each Bond Year except for a
reasonable carryover amount not to exceed the greater of (i) the earnings on the fund for the
immediately preceding Bond Year; or (ii) 1/12 of the principal and interest payments on the Series
2026 Bond for the immediately preceding Bond Year; amounts on deposit in the Sinking Fund
will be invested by the City without restriction as to yield for a period of 13 months after their date
of deposit.
8. The City Council adopted a resolution on September 15, 2025, declaring its official
intent to acquire and construct the Project and finance the same with bonds or other obligations
(the "Intent Resolution").
The City certifies that none of the costs of the Project to be paid for from the Net Sales
Proceeds are for expenditures made more than 60 days prior to the date of adoption of the Intent
Resolution, except for (i) costs of issuance of the Series 2026 Bond; (ii) costs aggregating an
amount not in excess of the lesser of $100,000 or 5% of the Net Sales Proceeds; (iii) costs for
preliminary expenditures (including architectural, engineering, surveying, soil testing, and similar
costs incurred prior to commencement of acquisition or construction of the Project, other than land
acquisition, site preparation and similar costs) not in excess of 20% of the Net Sales Proceeds of
the Series 2026 Bond; the City will allocate Net Sales Proceeds to reimbursement of such
expenditures no later than 3 years after the later of (i) the date any such expenditure was originally
paid or (ii) the date the Project is placed in service (or abandoned); and such allocations will be
made by the City in writing.
The City will seek reimbursement of prior expenditures already paid by the City from the
proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond in the amount of $ , as set forth in Exhibit A, such
amounts having been expended to pay the costs of the Project, and use such amounts to reimburse
the City for those expenditures.
9. Not more than 50% of the Net Sales Proceeds will be invested in nonpurpose
investments (as defined in Section 148(f)(6)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code")) having a substantially guaranteed yield for four years or more (e.g., a four-year
guaranteed investment contract or a Treasury Obligation that does not mature for four years).
10. The proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond will be advanced by the Lender from time to
time to pay or reimburse the City for costs of the Project. Accordingly, the City does not expect
to invest the proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond prior to payment or reimbursement of the costs of
the Project, and therefore no arbitrage earnings are expected to be realized.
If the City does invest the proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond prior to the payment or
reimbursement of the costs of the Project, the City covenants and agrees to invest the proceeds of
the Series 2026 Bond in investments purchased at fair market value in a manner that satisfies the
safe harbors provided by the Internal Revenue Service, Iowa law governing investments by the
City and the City's investment policy. Additionally, if the City does not spend the Series 2026
Bond proceeds in accordance with the time periods set forth in the next paragraph (or another
Page 781 of 865
applicable rebate exception), rebate payments to the United States regarding investment proceeds
may be required to be made by the City.
The City expects to spend the Net Sales Proceeds (along with any investment earnings on
such proceeds) by July 3, 2026. Accordingly, the City reasonably expects that the Net Sales
Proceeds will be fully spent for costs of the Project within the time periods set forth in the 18-
Month Exception described below:
18-Month Exception: The 18-Month Exception set forth in Section 1.148-7(d) of the
United States Treasury Regulations (the "Regulations") applies to the Net Sales Proceeds.
Accordingly, if all Net Sales Proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond are expended at least as quickly as
15% within 6 months from the date of issuance of the Series 2026 Bond, 60% within 12 months
and 100% within 18 months, then rebate will be required only with respect to a reasonably required
reserve or replacement fund, if any. If the City exercises due diligence to complete the Project and
an amount not exceeding the lesser of 3% of the Net Sales Proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond
allocated to the Project or $250,000 remains unspent as of the end of the eighteenth month, the
City will be treated as satisfying the final expenditure requirement. In addition, a reasonable
retainage of up to 5% of the Net Sales Proceeds as of the end of the 18-month period may be
allocated to expenditures within 30 months of the Dated Date.
We certify that the City will comply with the investment requirements of Section 148 of
the Code and the Regulations relating thereto with respect to the proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond,
including the requirement to invest the proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond (and the investment
earnings thereon) at fair market value, and, if appropriate, to comply with the bidding requirements
for investment contracts. The City acknowledges that if it fails to spend the proceeds of the Series
2026 Bond (along with the investment earnings thereon) within the time periods set forth in the
18-Month Exception (or another applicable rebate exception), the City may have a rebate liability
to the United States pursuant to Section 148 of the Code. The City shall consult with the
appropriate auditors or rebate specialists with regard to determination of rebate liability.
11. The City shall make a final allocation of the proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond to
capital expenditures not later than 18 months after the in-service date of the Project and in any
event not later than five years and 60 days after the issuance of the Series 2026 Bond or not later
than 60 days after retirement of the Series 2026 Bond.
12. The weighted average maturity of the Series 2026 Bond does not exceed the
reasonably expected economic life of the Project.
13. The City intends that it will be the owner of the Project and agrees that it will not
use, or suffer or permit to be used by any natural person, firm, joint venture, association,
partnership, business trust, corporation, public body, agency or political subdivision thereof or any
other similar entity ("Person") by lease or other use agreement, the Project by any Person who is
not a "governmental person" as defined in Section 1.141-1 of the Regulations ("governmental
person" does not include the federal government), or if such Person is a not a "governmental
person" such use meets the requirements set out in Section 1.141-3 of the Regulations, Internal
Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 17-13, as amended, and Internal Revenue Service Revenue
Procedure 2001-39 (or any applicable successor procedures, rulings or regulations) or is allowable
Page 782 of 865
private activity pursuant to Section 1.141 of the Regulations and Section 141 of the Code (or any
applicable successor procedures, rulings or regulations). The City agrees that it will not allow any
other user to use or occupy the Project for any purposes which would cause interest on the Series
2026 Bond to be includable in gross income under Section 103 of the Code.
14. There are no other governmental obligations of the City: (i) sold at substantially the
same time as the Series 2026 Bond, (ii) sold pursuant to the same plan of financing with the Series
2026 Bond, and (iii) reasonably expected to be paid from substantially the same source of funds
as will be used to pay the Series 2026 Bond.
15. The City has not received notice that its certifications may not be relied upon with
respect to its own issues, nor has it been advised that the Commissioner of Internal Revenue is
contemplating listing the City as a governmental unit whose certifications may not be relied upon
with respect to its issues of governmental obligations. The City will maintain detailed records of
the expenditure of the proceeds of the Series 2026 Bond and comply with its Post Issuance
Compliance Policy.
16. The City covenants and agrees to take such action to make, or cause to be made, all
calculations, transfers and payments that may be necessary to comply with the rebate requirements
contained in Section 148(f) of the Code with respect to the Series 2026 Bond, including any rebate
payments. The City agrees to consult with the appropriate auditors or rebate specialists with regard
to arbitrage and rebate issues and compliance, including but not limited to determination of rebate
liability.
17. On the basis of the foregoing, it is not expected that the Net Sales Proceeds will be
used in a manner that would cause the Series 2026 Bond to be an "arbitrage bond" under
Section 148 of the Code and the regulations prescribed under that section. The City has not been
notified of any listing or proposed listing of it by the Internal Revenue Service as a bond issuer
whose arbitrage certifications may not be relied upon.
18. This certification is made in compliance with the Code and the Regulations and is
delivered as part of the transcript of proceedings and accompanying certificates with respect to the
Series 2026 Bond.
19. To our best knowledge and belief, there are no facts, estimates or circumstances
which would materially change the foregoing conclusions.

LOAN AND DISBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
$2,330,000 WATER REVENUE BONDS
This Loan and Disbursement Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as
of February 20, 2026, by and between the City of Dubuque, Iowa (the "Participant") and the
Iowa Finance Authority, an agency and public instrumentality of the State of Iowa (the "Issuer").
WHEREAS, the Issuer, in cooperation with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources
(the "Department"), is authorized to undertake the creation, administration and financing of the
Iowa Drinking Water Facilities Financing Program (the "Program") established in the Code of
Iowa, Sections 16.131 through 16.135 and Sections 455B.291 through 455B.299, including,
among other things, the making of loans to Water Systems for purposes of the Program; and
WHEREAS, the Participant desires to participate in the Program as a means of financing
all or part of the construction of certain drinking water treatment facilities serving the Participant
and its residents; and
WHEREAS, to assist in financing the Project (defined herein), the Issuer desires to make
a loan to the Participant in the amount set forth in Section 2 hereof;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

265, Chapter 26 of the Iowa Administrative Code.
(e) "Resolution" shall mean the resolution of the City Council of the
Participant providing for the authorization and issuance of the Revenue Bond, attached

execution of this Agreement and the issuance of the Revenue Bond (as defined herein).
Page 786 of 865
(f) "Water System" shall mean the drinking water system of the Participant,
all facilities being used in conjunction therewith and all appurtenances and extensions
thereto, including but not limited to the water facilities which the Participant is financing
under this Agreement.
Section 2. Loan; Purchase of Revenue Bond. The Issuer agrees to purchase a duly
authorized and issued water revenue bond or capital loan note of the Participant (the "Revenue
Bond") in order to make a loan to the Participant, and will disburse proceeds as set forth herein.
The Participant agrees to borrow and accept from the Issuer, a loan in the principal amount of
$2,330,000 (the "Loan").
The Participant shall use the proceeds of the Loan strictly (a) to finance a portion of the
costs of construction of the Project and (b), where applicable, to reimburse the Participant for a
portion of the costs of the Project, which portion was paid or incurred in anticipation of
reimbursement through the Program and which is eligible for such reimbursement under and
pursuant to the Regulations and the Code.
Section 3. Disbursements. Proceeds of the Loan shall be made available to the
Participant in the form of one or more periodic disbursements as provided in this Section. The
Issuer thereafter shall make disbursements of a portion of the Loan for payment of costs of the
Project upon receipt of the following:
(a) a completed payment request on a form acceptable to and available from
the Issuer;
(b) current construction payment estimates;
(c) engineering service statements;
(d) purchase orders or invoices for items not included within other contracts;
and
(e) evidence that the costs for which the disbursement is requested have been
incurred.
Solely with respect to the request for the final disbursement of proceeds of the Loan, the
Participant shall submit to the Issuer (via the Department), in addition to items (a) through (e)
above, a certification of completion and acceptance of the Project by the Participant or evidence
of an acceptable settlement if the Project is subject to a dispute between the Participant and any
contractor.
Disbursements shall be made in a timely fashion following the receipt of the information
as set forth above. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Issuer, funds shall be payable to
the Participant via automated clearinghouse system transfer to the account specified by the
Participant.
Section 4. Completion of Project. The Participant covenants and agrees (i) to
exercise its best efforts in accordance with prudent water treatment utility practices to complete
2
Page 787 of 865
the Project; and (ii) to provide from its own fiscal resources all monies, in excess of the total
amount of Loan proceeds it receives under the Agreement, required to complete the Project.
Section 5. Repayment of Loan; Issuance of Revenue Bonds. The Participant's
obligation to repay the Loan and interest thereon shall be evidenced by the Revenue Bond in the
principal amount of the Loan, complying in all material respects with the Regulations and being
in substantially the form set forth in the Resolution, which Resolution is attached hereto as
Exhibit B. The Revenue Bond shall be delivered to the Issuer as the original purchaser and
registered holder thereof at the closing of the Loan. The Revenue Bond shall be accompanied by
a legal opinion of bond counsel, in form satisfactory to the Issuer, to evidence the legality,
security position and tax-exempt status of interest on the Revenue Bond. The parties agree that a
payment of principal of or interest on the Revenue Bond shall be deemed to be a payment of the
same on the Loan and a payment of principal of or interest on the Loan shall be deemed to be a
payment of the same on the Revenue Bond. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Issuer,
all payments of principal and interest due under the Loan shall be made via automated
clearinghouse transfer, from an account specified by the Participant.
The Revenue Bond shall be dated the date of delivery to the Issuer, with interest and the
Servicing Fee (together, the "Interest Rate" as set forth in Section 6 hereof) payable
semiannually on June 1 and December 1 of each year (unless the resolution authorizing a
previous series of outstanding bonds on a parity with the Revenue Bond requires interest to be
paid on other interest payment dates, in which case such other dates shall apply) from the date of
each disbursement of a part of the Loan from the Issuer to the Participant (which are initially
expected to be on approximately the dates set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and
incorporated herein). The first repayment of principal of the Loan shall be due and payable not
later than one year after substantial completion of the Project and payments of principal, interest
and the Servicing Fee shall continue thereafter until the Loan is paid in full. Following the final
disbursement of Loan proceeds to the Participant, Exhibit A shall be adjusted by the Issuer, with
the approval of the Participant, based upon actual disbursements to the Participant under the
Agreement. Such revised Exhibit A thereafter shall be deemed to be incorporated herein by
reference and made a part hereof and shall supersede and replace that initially attached hereto
and to the Revenue Bond.
The Revenue Bond shall be subject to optional redemption by the Participant at a price of
par plus accrued interest (i) on any date upon receipt of written consent by the Issuer, or (ii) in
the event that all or substantially all of the Project is damaged or destroyed. Any such optional
redemption of the Revenue Bond by the Participant may be made from any funds regardless of
source, in whole or from time to time in part, upon not less than thirty (30) days' notice of
redemption by e-mail, facsimile, certified or registered mail to the Issuer (or any other registered
owner of the Revenue Bond). The Revenue Bond is also subject to mandatory redemption in the
event the costs of the Project are less than initially projected, in which case the amount of the
Loan shall be reduced to an amount equal to the actual Project costs disbursed. The Participant
and the Issuer agree that following such adjustment, the principal amount due under the Revenue
Bond shall be automatically reduced to equal the principal amount of the adjusted Loan.
The Revenue Bond and the interest thereon and any additional obligations as may be
hereafter issued and outstanding from time to time under the conditions set forth in the
3
Page 788 of 865
Resolution shall be payable solely and only from the Net Revenues (as defined in the Resolution)
of the Water System of the Participant, a sufficient portion of which has been and shall be
ordered set aside and pledged for such purpose under the provisions of the Resolution. Neither
this Agreement nor the Revenue Bond is a general obligation of the Participant, and under no
circumstance shall the Participant be in any manner liable by reason of the failure of the
aforesaid Net Revenues to be sufficient to pay the Revenue Bond and the interest thereon or to
otherwise discharge the Participant's obligation hereunder.
Section 6. Interest Rate, Initiation Fee and Servicing Fees. (a) The Participant agrees
to pay to the Issuer, as additional consideration for the Loan, a loan initiation fee (the "Initiation
Fee") equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the amount of the Loan (but not to exceed
$100,000.00) ($11,590), which shall be due and payable on the date of this Agreement. Unless
the Issuer shall be otherwise notified by the Participant that the Participant intends to pay such
Initiation Fee from other funds, and has received such other funds from the Participant on the
date hereof, the Issuer shall be authorized to deduct the full amount of the Initiation Fee from the
proceeds of the Loan being made hereunder, and such deduction by the Issuer shall be deemed to
be an expenditure by the Participant of the Loan proceeds.
(b) The Participant agrees to pay a Loan servicing fee (the "Servicing Fee") to the Issuer
in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Loan outstanding. The
Servicing Fee shall be paid as described in Section 5 and Section 6(c) hereof.
(c) The Loan shall bear interest at 2.90% per annum (the "Rate"). As described in
Section 5, payments hereunder shall be calculated based on the Rate plus the Servicing Fee (such
3.15%, the "Interest Rate").
Section 7. Compliance with Applicable Laws, Performance Under Loan Agreement;
Rates. The Participant covenants and agrees (i) to comply with all applicable State of Iowa and
federal laws, rules and regulations (including but not limited to the Regulations), judicial
decisions, and executive orders in the performance of the Agreement and in the financing,
construction, operation, maintenance and use of the Project and the Water System; (ii) to
maintain its Water System in good repair, working order and operating condition; (iii) to
cooperate with the Issuer in the observance and performance of its respective duties, covenants,
obligations and agreements under the Agreement; (iv) to comply with all terms and conditions of
the Resolution; and (v) to establish, levy and collect rents, rates and other charges for the
products and services provided by its Water System, which rents, rates and other charges shall be
at least sufficient (A) to meet the operation and maintenance expenses of such Water System, (B)
to produce and maintain Net Revenues at a level not less than 110% of the amount of principal
and interest on the Revenue Bond and any other obligations secured by a pledge of the Net
Revenues falling due in the same year, (C) to comply with all covenants pertaining thereto
contained in, and all other provisions of, any bond resolution, trust indenture or other security
agreement, if any, relating to any bonds or other evidences of indebtedness issued or to be issued
by the Participant, (D) to pay the debt service requirements on any bonds, notes or other
evidences of indebtedness, whether now outstanding or incurred in the future, secured by such
revenues or other receipts and issued to finance improvements to the Water System and to make
any other payments required by the laws of the State of Iowa, (E) to generate funds sufficient to
fulfill the terms of all other contracts and agreements made by the Participant, including, without
0
Page 789 of 865
limitation, the Agreement and the Revenue Bond and (F) to pay all other amounts payable from
or constituting a lien or charge on the operating revenues of its Water System.
Section 8. Exclusion of Interest from Gross Income. Unless otherwise agreed to by
the Issuer in writing, the Participant covenants and agrees as follows:
(a) The Participant shall not take any action or omit to take any action which
would result in a loss of the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for
federal income taxation as that status is governed by Section 103(a) of the Code.
(b) The Participant shall not take any action or omit to take any action, which
action or omission would cause its Revenue Bond or the Bonds (assuming solely for this
purpose that the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant represent all of the
proceeds of the Bonds) to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section
141(a) of the Code. Accordingly, unless the Participant receives the prior written
approval of the Issuer, the Participant shall not (A) permit any of the proceeds of the
Bonds loaned to the Participant or the Project financed with such proceeds to be used,
either directly or indirectly, in any manner that would constitute "private business use"
within the meaning of Section 141(b)(6) of the Code, taking into account for this purpose
all such use by persons other than governmental units on an aggregate basis, (B) use,
either directly or indirectly, any of the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant to
make or finance loans to persons other than governmental units (as such term is used in
Section 141(c) of the Code) or (C) use, either directly or indirectly, any of the proceeds of
the Bonds loaned to the Participant to acquire any "non -governmental output property"
within the meaning of Section 141(d)(2) of the Code.
(c) The Participant shall not directly or indirectly use or permit the use of any
proceeds of the Bonds (or amounts replaced with such proceeds) or any other funds or
take any action or omit to take any action, which use or action or omission would
(assuming solely for this purpose that the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant
represent all of the proceeds of the Bonds) cause the Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds"
within the meaning of Section 148(a) of the Code.
(d) The Participant shall not directly or indirectly use or permit the use of any
proceeds of the Bonds to pay the principal of or interest on any issue of State or local
governmental obligations ("refinancing of indebtedness") unless the Participant shall
establish to the satisfaction of the Issuer that such refinancing of indebtedness will not
adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds for federal
income tax purposes and the Participant delivers an opinion to such effect of bond
counsel acceptable to the Issuer.
(e) The Participant shall not directly or indirectly use or permit the use of any
proceeds of the Bonds to reimburse the Participant for any portion of the cost of the
Project unless such cost was paid or incurred by the Participant in anticipation of
reimbursement from the proceeds of the Bonds or other State or local governmental
borrowing in accordance with the Code, published rulings of the Internal Revenue
Service and the Regulations.
W
Page 790 of 865
(f) The Participant shall not use the proceeds of the Bonds (assuming solely
for this purpose that the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant represent all of
the proceeds of the Bonds) in any manner which would cause the Bonds to be "federally
guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code or "hedge bonds" within
the meaning of Section 149(g) of the Code.
(g) The Participant shall comply with all provisions of the Code relating to the
rebate of any profits from arbitrage attributable to the Participant, and shall indemnify
and hold the Issuer harmless therefrom.
Section 9. Insurance; Audits; Disposal of Property. The Participant covenants and
agrees (a) to maintain insurance on, or to self -insure, the insurable portions of the Water System
of a kind and in an amount which normally would be carried by private companies engaged in a
similar type of business, (b) to keep proper books and accounts adapted to the Water System,
showing the complete and correct entry of all transactions relating thereto, and to cause said
books and accounts to be audited or examined by an independent auditor or the State Auditor (i)
at such times and for such periods as may be required by the federal Single Audit Act of 1984,
OMB Circular A-133 or State law, and (ii) at such other times and for such other periods as may
be requested at any time and from time to time by the Issuer (which requests may require an
audit to be performed for a period that would not otherwise be required to be audited under State
law), and (c) unless the Participant has received a waiver and consent from the Issuer, it shall not
sell, lease or in any manner dispose of the Water System, or any capital part thereof, including
any and all extensions and additions which may be made thereto, until the Revenue Bond shall
have been paid in full or otherwise discharged as provided in the Resolution; provided, however,
that the Participant may dispose of any property which in the judgment of its governing body is
no longer useful or profitable to use in connection with the operation of the Water System or
essential to the continued operation thereof.
Section 10. Maintenance of Documents; Access. The Participant agrees to maintain
its project accounts in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as
issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, including GAAP requirements
relating to the reporting of infrastructure assets.
The Participant agrees to permit the Issuer or its duly authorized representative access to
all files and documents relating to the Project for purposes of conducting audits and reviews in
accordance with any of the Regulations.
Section 11. Continuing Disclosure. As a means of enabling the Issuer to comply with
the "continuing disclosure" requirements set forth in Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule") of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, the Participant agrees, during the term of the Loan, but only upon
written notification from the Issuer to the Participant that this Section 11 applies to such
Participant for a particular fiscal year, to provide the Issuer with (i) the comprehensive audit
report of the Participant, prepared and certified by an independent auditor or the State Auditor, or
unaudited financial information if the audit is not available, not later than 180 days after the end
of each fiscal year for which this section applies and (ii) such other information and operating
data as the Issuer may reasonably request from time to time with respect to the Water System,
the Project or the Participant.
Page 791 of 865
The Participant hereby consents to the inclusion of all or any portion of the foregoing
information and materials in a public filing made by the Issuer under the Rule. The Participant
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, and its officers, directors, employees and
agents from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, reasonable costs and
expenses whatsoever (including attorney fees) which such indemnified parry may incur by
reason of or in connection with the disclosure of information permitted under this Section;
provided that no such indemnification shall be required for any claims, damages, losses,
liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by the willful
misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuer in the disclosure of such information.
Section 12. Events of Default. If any one or more of the following events occur, it is
hereby defined as and declared to constitute an "Event of Default" under this Agreement:
(a) Failure by the Participant to pay, or cause to be paid, any Loan repayment
(including the Servicing Fee) required to be paid under this Agreement when due, which
failure shall continue for a period of fifteen (15) days.
(b) Failure by the Participant to make, or cause to be made, any required
payments of principal, redemption premium, if any, and interest on any bonds, notes or
other obligations of the Participant (other than the Loan and the Revenue Bond), the
payment of which are secured by operating revenues of the Water System.
(c) Failure by the Participant to observe and perform any duty, covenant,
obligation or agreement on its part to be observed or performed under the Agreement or
the Resolution, other than the obligation to make Loan repayments, which failure shall
continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice, specifying such failure and
requesting that it be remedied, is given to the Participant by the Issuer, unless the Issuer
shall agree in writing to an extension of such time prior to its expiration or the failure
stated in such notice is correctable but cannot be corrected in the applicable period, in
which case the Issuer may not unreasonably withhold its consent to an extension of such
time up to one hundred twenty (120) days from the delivery of the written notice referred

LOAN AND DISBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
2,330,000 WATER REVENUE BONDS
This Loan and Disbursement Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as
of February 20, 2026, by and between the City of Dubuque, Iowa (the "Participant") and the
Iowa Finance Authority, an agency and public instrumentality of the State of Iowa (the "Issuer").
WHEREAS, the Issuer, in cooperation with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources
the "Department"), is authorized to undertake the creation, administration and financing of the
Iowa Drinking Water Facilities Financing Program (the "Program") established in the Code of
Iowa, Sections 16.131 through 16.135 and Sections 455B.291 through 455B.299, including,
among other things, the making of loans to Water Systems for purposes of the Program; and
WHEREAS, the Participant desires to participate in the Program as a means of financing
all or part of the construction of certain drinking water treatment facilities serving the Participant
and its residents; and
WHEREAS, to assist in financing the Project (defined herein), the Issuer desires to make
a loan to the Participant in the amount set forth in Section 2 hereof;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
Section 1. Definitions. In addition to other definitions set forth herein, the following
terms as used in this Agreement shall, unless the context clearly requires otherwise, have the

the Loan to the Participant.
b) "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and
all lawfully promulgated regulations thereunder.
c) "Project" shall mean the particular construction activities approved by the
Department and being undertaken by the Participant with respect to the operation or
infrastructure of the Water System for the purpose of providing safe drinking water to the
customers thereof, as described in the Resolution.

Code, and the administrative rules of the Issuer relating to the Program set forth in Title
265, Chapter 26 of the Iowa Administrative Code.
e) "Resolution" shall mean the resolution of the City Council of the
Participant providing for the authorization and issuance of the Revenue Bond, attached
hereto as Exhibit B, adopted on February 2, 2026, approving and authorizing the
execution of this Agreement and the issuance of the Revenue Bond (as defined herein).
Page 786 of 865
f) "Water System" shall mean the drinking water system of the Participant,
all facilities being used in conjunction therewith and all appurtenances and extensions
thereto, including but not limited to the water facilities which the Participant is financing
under this Agreement.
Section 2. Loan; Purchase of Revenue Bond. The Issuer agrees to purchase a duly
authorized and issued water revenue bond or capital loan note of the Participant (the "Revenue
Bond") in order to make a loan to the Participant, and will disburse proceeds as set forth herein.
The Participant agrees to borrow and accept from the Issuer, a loan in the principal amount of
2,330,000 (the "Loan").
The Participant shall use the proceeds of the Loan strictly (a) to finance a portion of the
costs of construction of the Project and (b), where applicable, to reimburse the Participant for a
portion of the costs of the Project, which portion was paid or incurred in anticipation of
reimbursement through the Program and which is eligible for such reimbursement under and
pursuant to the Regulations and the Code.
Section 3. Disbursements. Proceeds of the Loan shall be made available to the
Participant in the form of one or more periodic disbursements as provided in this Section. The
Issuer thereafter shall make disbursements of a portion of the Loan for payment of costs of the
Project upon receipt of the following:
a) a completed payment request on a form acceptable to and available from
the Issuer;
b) current construction payment estimates;
c) engineering service statements;
d) purchase orders or invoices for items not included within other contracts;
and
e) evidence that the costs for which the disbursement is requested have been
incurred.
Solely with respect to the request for the final disbursement of proceeds of the Loan, the
Participant shall submit to the Issuer (via the Department), in addition to items (a) through (e)
above, a certification of completion and acceptance of the Project by the Participant or evidence
of an acceptable settlement if the Project is subject to a dispute between the Participant and any
contractor.
Disbursements shall be made in a timely fashion following the receipt of the information
as set forth above. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Issuer, funds shall be payable to
the Participant via automated clearinghouse system transfer to the account specified by the
Participant.
Section 4. Completion of Project. The Participant covenants and agrees (i) to
exercise its best efforts in accordance with prudent water treatment utility practices to complete
2
Page 787 of 865
the Project; and (ii) to provide from its own fiscal resources all monies, in excess of the total
amount of Loan proceeds it receives under the Agreement, required to complete the Project.
Section 5. Repayment of Loan; Issuance of Revenue Bonds. The Participant's
obligation to repay the Loan and interest thereon shall be evidenced by the Revenue Bond in the
principal amount of the Loan, complying in all material respects with the Regulations and being
in substantially the form set forth in the Resolution, which Resolution is attached hereto as
Exhibit B. The Revenue Bond shall be delivered to the Issuer as the original purchaser and
registered holder thereof at the closing of the Loan. The Revenue Bond shall be accompanied by
a legal opinion of bond counsel, in form satisfactory to the Issuer, to evidence the legality,
security position and tax-exempt status of interest on the Revenue Bond. The parties agree that a
payment of principal of or interest on the Revenue Bond shall be deemed to be a payment of the
same on the Loan and a payment of principal of or interest on the Loan shall be deemed to be a
payment of the same on the Revenue Bond. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Issuer,
all payments of principal and interest due under the Loan shall be made via automated
clearinghouse transfer, from an account specified by the Participant.
The Revenue Bond shall be dated the date of delivery to the Issuer, with interest and the
Servicing Fee (together, the "Interest Rate" as set forth in Section 6 hereof) payable
semiannually on June 1 and December 1 of each year (unless the resolution authorizing a
previous series of outstanding bonds on a parity with the Revenue Bond requires interest to be
paid on other interest payment dates, in which case such other dates shall apply) from the date of
each disbursement of a part of the Loan from the Issuer to the Participant (which are initially
expected to be on approximately the dates set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and
incorporated herein). The first repayment of principal of the Loan shall be due and payable not
later than one year after substantial completion of the Project and payments of principal, interest
and the Servicing Fee shall continue thereafter until the Loan is paid in full. Following the final
disbursement of Loan proceeds to the Participant, Exhibit A shall be adjusted by the Issuer, with
the approval of the Participant, based upon actual disbursements to the Participant under the
Agreement. Such revised Exhibit A thereafter shall be deemed to be incorporated herein by
reference and made a part hereof and shall supersede and replace that initially attached hereto
and to the Revenue Bond.
The Revenue Bond shall be subject to optional redemption by the Participant at a price of
par plus accrued interest (i) on any date upon receipt of written consent by the Issuer, or (ii) in
the event that all or substantially all of the Project is damaged or destroyed. Any such optional
redemption of the Revenue Bond by the Participant may be made from any funds regardless of
source, in whole or from time to time in part, upon not less than thirty (30) days' notice of
redemption by e-mail, facsimile, certified or registered mail to the Issuer (or any other registered
owner of the Revenue Bond). The Revenue Bond is also subject to mandatory redemption in the
event the costs of the Project are less than initially projected, in which case the amount of the
Loan shall be reduced to an amount equal to the actual Project costs disbursed. The Participant
and the Issuer agree that following such adjustment, the principal amount due under the Revenue
Bond shall be automatically reduced to equal the principal amount of the adjusted Loan.
The Revenue Bond and the interest thereon and any additional obligations as may be
hereafter issued and outstanding from time to time under the conditions set forth in the
3
Page 788 of 865
Resolution shall be payable solely and only from the Net Revenues (as defined in the Resolution)
of the Water System of the Participant, a sufficient portion of which has been and shall be
ordered set aside and pledged for such purpose under the provisions of the Resolution. Neither
this Agreement nor the Revenue Bond is a general obligation of the Participant, and under no
circumstance shall the Participant be in any manner liable by reason of the failure of the
aforesaid Net Revenues to be sufficient to pay the Revenue Bond and the interest thereon or to
otherwise discharge the Participant's obligation hereunder.
Section 6. Interest Rate, Initiation Fee and Servicing Fees. (a) The Participant agrees
to pay to the Issuer, as additional consideration for the Loan, a loan initiation fee (the "Initiation
Fee") equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the amount of the Loan (but not to exceed
100,000.00) ($11,590), which shall be due and payable on the date of this Agreement. Unless
the Issuer shall be otherwise notified by the Participant that the Participant intends to pay such
Initiation Fee from other funds, and has received such other funds from the Participant on the
date hereof, the Issuer shall be authorized to deduct the full amount of the Initiation Fee from the
proceeds of the Loan being made hereunder, and such deduction by the Issuer shall be deemed to
be an expenditure by the Participant of the Loan proceeds.
b) The Participant agrees to pay a Loan servicing fee (the "Servicing Fee") to the Issuer
in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Loan outstanding. The
Servicing Fee shall be paid as described in Section 5 and Section 6(c) hereof.
c) The Loan shall bear interest at 2.90% per annum (the "Rate"). As described in
Section 5, payments hereunder shall be calculated based on the Rate plus the Servicing Fee (such
3.15%, the "Interest Rate").
Section 7. Compliance with Applicable Laws, Performance Under Loan Agreement;
Rates. The Participant covenants and agrees (i) to comply with all applicable State of Iowa and
federal laws, rules and regulations (including but not limited to the Regulations), judicial
decisions, and executive orders in the performance of the Agreement and in the financing,
construction, operation, maintenance and use of the Project and the Water System; (ii) to
maintain its Water System in good repair, working order and operating condition; (iii) to
cooperate with the Issuer in the observance and performance of its respective duties, covenants,
obligations and agreements under the Agreement; (iv) to comply with all terms and conditions of
the Resolution; and (v) to establish, levy and collect rents, rates and other charges for the
products and services provided by its Water System, which rents, rates and other charges shall be
at least sufficient (A) to meet the operation and maintenance expenses of such Water System, (B)
to produce and maintain Net Revenues at a level not less than 110% of the amount of principal
and interest on the Revenue Bond and any other obligations secured by a pledge of the Net
Revenues falling due in the same year, (C) to comply with all covenants pertaining thereto
contained in, and all other provisions of, any bond resolution, trust indenture or other security
agreement, if any, relating to any bonds or other evidences of indebtedness issued or to be issued
by the Participant, (D) to pay the debt service requirements on any bonds, notes or other
evidences of indebtedness, whether now outstanding or incurred in the future, secured by such
revenues or other receipts and issued to finance improvements to the Water System and to make
any other payments required by the laws of the State of Iowa, (E) to generate funds sufficient to
fulfill the terms of all other contracts and agreements made by the Participant, including, without
0
Page 789 of 865
limitation, the Agreement and the Revenue Bond and (F) to pay all other amounts payable from
or constituting a lien or charge on the operating revenues of its Water System.
Section 8. Exclusion of Interest from Gross Income. Unless otherwise agreed to by
the Issuer in writing, the Participant covenants and agrees as follows:
a) The Participant shall not take any action or omit to take any action which
would result in a loss of the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for
federal income taxation as that status is governed by Section 103(a) of the Code.
b) The Participant shall not take any action or omit to take any action, which
action or omission would cause its Revenue Bond or the Bonds (assuming solely for this
purpose that the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant represent all of the
proceeds of the Bonds) to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section
141(a) of the Code. Accordingly, unless the Participant receives the prior written
approval of the Issuer, the Participant shall not (A) permit any of the proceeds of the
Bonds loaned to the Participant or the Project financed with such proceeds to be used,
either directly or indirectly, in any manner that would constitute "private business use"
within the meaning of Section 141(b)(6) of the Code, taking into account for this purpose
all such use by persons other than governmental units on an aggregate basis, (B) use,
either directly or indirectly, any of the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant to
make or finance loans to persons other than governmental units (as such term is used in
Section 141(c) of the Code) or (C) use, either directly or indirectly, any of the proceeds of
the Bonds loaned to the Participant to acquire any "non -governmental output property"
within the meaning of Section 141(d)(2) of the Code.
c) The Participant shall not directly or indirectly use or permit the use of any
proceeds of the Bonds (or amounts replaced with such proceeds) or any other funds or
take any action or omit to take any action, which use or action or omission would
assuming solely for this purpose that the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant
represent all of the proceeds of the Bonds) cause the Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds"
within the meaning of Section 148(a) of the Code.
d) The Participant shall not directly or indirectly use or permit the use of any
proceeds of the Bonds to pay the principal of or interest on any issue of State or local
governmental obligations ("refinancing of indebtedness") unless the Participant shall
establish to the satisfaction of the Issuer that such refinancing of indebtedness will not
adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds for federal
income tax purposes and the Participant delivers an opinion to such effect of bond
counsel acceptable to the Issuer.
e) The Participant shall not directly or indirectly use or permit the use of any
proceeds of the Bonds to reimburse the Participant for any portion of the cost of the
Project unless such cost was paid or incurred by the Participant in anticipation of
reimbursement from the proceeds of the Bonds or other State or local governmental
borrowing in accordance with the Code, published rulings of the Internal Revenue
Service and the Regulations.

Page 790 of 865
f) The Participant shall not use the proceeds of the Bonds (assuming solely
for this purpose that the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant represent all of
the proceeds of the Bonds) in any manner which would cause the Bonds to be "federally
guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code or "hedge bonds" within
the meaning of Section 149(g) of the Code.
g) The Participant shall comply with all provisions of the Code relating to the
rebate of any profits from arbitrage attributable to the Participant, and shall indemnify
and hold the Issuer harmless therefrom.
Section 9. Insurance; Audits; Disposal of Property. The Participant covenants and
agrees (a) to maintain insurance on, or to self -insure, the insurable portions of the Water System
of a kind and in an amount which normally would be carried by private companies engaged in a
similar type of business, (b) to keep proper books and accounts adapted to the Water System,
showing the complete and correct entry of all transactions relating thereto, and to cause said
books and accounts to be audited or examined by an independent auditor or the State Auditor (i)
at such times and for such periods as may be required by the federal Single Audit Act of 1984,
OMB Circular A-133 or State law, and (ii) at such other times and for such other periods as may
be requested at any time and from time to time by the Issuer (which requests may require an
audit to be performed for a period that would not otherwise be required to be audited under State
law), and (c) unless the Participant has received a waiver and consent from the Issuer, it shall not
sell, lease or in any manner dispose of the Water System, or any capital part thereof, including
any and all extensions and additions which may be made thereto, until the Revenue Bond shall
have been paid in full or otherwise discharged as provided in the Resolution; provided, however,
that the Participant may dispose of any property which in the judgment of its governing body is
no longer useful or profitable to use in connection with the operation of the Water System or
essential to the continued operation thereof.
Section 10. Maintenance of Documents; Access. The Participant agrees to maintain
its project accounts in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as
issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, including GAAP requirements
relating to the reporting of infrastructure assets.
The Participant agrees to permit the Issuer or its duly authorized representative access to
all files and documents relating to the Project for purposes of conducting audits and reviews in
accordance with any of the Regulations.
Section 11. Continuing Disclosure. As a means of enabling the Issuer to comply with
the "continuing disclosure" requirements set forth in Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule") of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, the Participant agrees, during the term of the Loan, but only upon
written notification from the Issuer to the Participant that this Section 11 applies to such
Participant for a particular fiscal year, to provide the Issuer with (i) the comprehensive audit
report of the Participant, prepared and certified by an independent auditor or the State Auditor, or
unaudited financial information if the audit is not available, not later than 180 days after the end
of each fiscal year for which this section applies and (ii) such other information and operating
data as the Issuer may reasonably request from time to time with respect to the Water System,
the Project or the Participant.
Page 791 of 865
The Participant hereby consents to the inclusion of all or any portion of the foregoing
information and materials in a public filing made by the Issuer under the Rule. The Participant
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, and its officers, directors, employees and
agents from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, reasonable costs and
expenses whatsoever (including attorney fees) which such indemnified parry may incur by
reason of or in connection with the disclosure of information permitted under this Section;
provided that no such indemnification shall be required for any claims, damages, losses,
liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by the willful
misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuer in the disclosure of such information.
Section 12. Events of Default. If any one or more of the following events occur, it is
hereby defined as and declared to constitute an "Event of Default" under this Agreement:
a) Failure by the Participant to pay, or cause to be paid, any Loan repayment
including the Servicing Fee) required to be paid under this Agreement when due, which
failure shall continue for a period of fifteen (15) days.
b) Failure by the Participant to make, or cause to be made, any required
payments of principal, redemption premium, if any, and interest on any bonds, notes or
other obligations of the Participant (other than the Loan and the Revenue Bond), the
payment of which are secured by operating revenues of the Water System.
c) Failure by the Participant to observe and perform any duty, covenant,
obligation or agreement on its part to be observed or performed under the Agreement or
the Resolution, other than the obligation to make Loan repayments, which failure shall
continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice, specifying such failure and
requesting that it be remedied, is given to the Participant by the Issuer, unless the Issuer
shall agree in writing to an extension of such time prior to its expiration or the failure
stated in such notice is correctable but cannot be corrected in the applicable period, in
which case the Issuer may not unreasonably withhold its consent to an extension of such
time up to one hundred twenty (120) days from the delivery of the written notice referred
to above if corrective action is commenced by the Participant within the applicable period
and diligently pursued until the Event of Default is corrected.
Section 13. Remedies on Default. Whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, the Issuer shall have the right to take any action authorized under the
Regulations, the Revenue Bond or this Agreement and to take whatever other action at law or
equity may appear necessary or desirable to collect the amounts then due and thereafter to
become due under the Agreement or to enforce the performance and observance of any duty,
covenant, obligation or agreement of the Participant under the Agreement or the Resolution.
Section 14. Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented or
modified except by a writing executed by all of the parties hereto.

applicable federal requirements including, but not limited to, Davis -Bacon wage requirements

Issuer that the Participant intends to repay the Interim Loan and Disbursement Agreement from
other funds, and the Issuer has received such other funds from the Participant on the date hereof,

income tax purposes and the Participant deli vers an opinion to s uch effect of bond
counsel acceptable to the Issuer.

5
Page 790 of 865

for this purpose that the proceeds of the Bonds loaned to the Participant represent all of

0MB Circular A-133 or State law, and (ii) at such other times and for such other periods as may
be requested at any time and from time to time by the I ssuer (which requests may require an
audit to be performed for a period that would not otherwise be required to be audited under State
law), and (c) unless the Participant has received a waiver and consent from the Issuer, it shall not
