and to incur debt; and

debt payable from ad valorem property tax receipts or from any other lawful source and maturing
within 40 years from the time it is incurred without prior referendum approval; and
WHEREAS the President and Board of Trustees of the Village (the "Board") has
considered the needs of the Village and has heretofore determined and does hereby determine
that it is advisable, necessary and in the best interests of the Village to construct and equip a
replacement fire station, expand the public works facility and relocate the emergency operations
center (the "Project"); and
WHEREAS the estimated cost to the Village of the Project, including costs of issuance for
the hereinafter defined Series 2009C Bonds, is the sum of $2,650,000 plus any estimated
available amount of interest earnings on said sum prior to its expenditure; and
WHEREAS there are insufficient funds on hand and available to pay the costs of the
Project, and it is necessary for that purpose that a sum to pay such costs be borrowed at this time,
and in evidence of such indebtedness, general obligation bonds of the Village be issued in the
principal amount of $2,650,000, and that such indebtedness be incurred in accordance with the
Act as hereinafter defined, and without submitting the question of incurring such indebtedness to
the electors of the Village for their approval; and
WHEREAS the Board does hereby determine that it is advisable and in the best interests of

Bonds at this time to take advantage of the debt service savings which will result from such
lower interest rates (which refunding may hereinafter be referred to as the "Refunding"); and

the Village to borrow $3,430,000 at this time pursuant to the Act for the purpose of refunding the

Each Bond shall bear interest from the later of its Dated Date as herein provided or from the
most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, until the
principal amount of such Bond is paid or duly provided for, such interest (computed upon the
-6-
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) being payable on June 1 and December 1 of
each year, commencing on June 1,2010. Interest on each Bond shall be paid by check or draft of
the Paying Agent, payable upon presentation thereof in lawful money of the United States of
America, to the person in whose name such Bond is registered at the close of business on the
applicable Record Date (the "Record Date "), and mailed to the registered owner of the Bond as
shown in the Bond Register or at such other address furnished in writing by such Registered
Owner. The Record Date shall be the 15th day of the month next preceding any regular or other
interest payment date occurring on the 1 st day of any month and 15 days preceding any interest
payment date occasioned by the redemption of Bonds on other than the first day of a month. The
principal of the Bonds shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America upon
presentation thereof at the principal corporate trust office of the Paying Agent.
Section 5. Execution; Authentication. The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the
Village by the manual or facsimile signature of its President and attested by the manual or
facsimile signature of its Village Clerk, as they may determine, and shall have impressed or
imprinted thereon the corporate seal or facsimile thereof of the Village. In case any such officer
whose signature shall appear on any Bond shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of
such Bond, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as
if such officer had remained in office until delivery. All Bonds shall have thereon a certificate of
authentication, substantially in the form hereinafter set forth, duly executed by the Bond
Registrar as authenticating agent of the Village and showing the date of authentication. No Bond
shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under this
Ordinance unless and until such certificate of authentication shall have been duly executed by the
Bond Registrar by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication upon any such Bond
shall be conclusive evidence that such Bond has been authenticated and delivered under this
-7-
Ordinance. The certificate of authentication on any Bond shall be deemed to have been executed
by it if signed by an authorized officer of the Bond Registrar, but it shall not be necessary that
the same officer sign the certificate of authentication on all of the Bonds issued hereunder.
Section 6. Redemption. The Bonds maturing on or after December 1,2019, are subject
to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the Village as a whole, or in part in any order of
maturity determined by the Village (less than all of the Bonds of a single maturity to be selected
by the Bond Registrar), on December 1, 2018, or on any date thereafter, at the redemption price
of par plus accrued interest to the date of redemption.
Section 7. Redemption Procedure. The Bonds shall be redeemed only in the principal
amount of $5,000 and integral multiples thereof. The Village shall, at least 45 days prior to any
optional redemption date (unless a shorter time period shall be satisfactory to the Bond
Registrar), notify the Bond Registrar of such redemption date and of the maturities and principal
amounts of Bonds to be redeemed. For purposes of any redemption ofless than all of the Bonds
of a single maturity, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected
by lot not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Bond Registrar for the Bonds of
such maturity by such method of lottery as the Bond Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate;
provided, however, that such lottery shall provide for the selection for redemption of Bonds or
portions thereof so that any $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion of a Bond shall be as likely to be
called for redemption as any other such $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion.
The Bond Registrar shall promptly notify the Village in writing of the Bonds or portions
of Bonds selected for redemption and, in the case of any Bond selected for partial redemption,
the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.
Unless waived by the registered owner of Bonds to be redeemed, official notice of any
such redemption shall be given by the Bond Registrar on behalf of the Village by mailing the
-8-
redemption notice by first-class mail not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the
date fixed for redemption to each registered owner of the Bond or Bonds to be redeemed at the
address shown on the Bond Register or at such other address as is furnished in writing by such
registered owner to the Bond Registrar.
All official notices of redemption shall include the full name of the Bonds and at least the
information as follows:
(a) the redemption date;
(b) the redemption price;
(c) if less than all of the outstanding Bonds of a particular maturity are to be
redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of Bonds within such
maturity, the respective principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed;
(d) a statement that on the redemption date the redemption price will become
due and payable upon each such Bond or portion thereof called for redemption and that
interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date;
(e) the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of the
redemption price, which place of payment shall be the principal corporate trust office of
the Paying Agent; and
(f) such other information then required by custom, practice or industry
standard.
Unless moneys sufficient to pay the redemption price of the Bonds to be redeemed at the
option of the Village shall have been received by the Bond Registrar prior to the giving of such
notice of redemption, such notice may, at the option of the Village, state that said redemption
shall be conditional upon the receipt of such moneys by the Bond Registrar on or prior to the
date fixed for redemption. If such moneys are not received, such notice shall be of no force and
-9-
effect, the Village shall not redeem such Bonds, and the Bond Registrar shall give notice, in the
same manner in which the notice of redemption shall have been given, that such moneys were
not so received and that such Bonds will not be redeemed. Otherwise, prior to any redemption
date, the Village shall deposit with the Paying Agent an amount of money sufficient to pay the
redemption price of all the Bonds or portions of Bonds which are to be redeemed on that date.
Subject to the provisions for a conditional redemption described above, notice of
redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed
shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified,
and from and after such date (unless the Village shall default in the payment of the redemption
price), such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Neither the failure to mail
such redemption notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular registered
owner of a Bond, shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other registered
owners. Notice having been properly given, failure of a registered owner of a Bond to receive
such notice shall not be deemed to invalidate, limit or delay the effect of the notice or redemption
action described in the notice. Such notice may be waived in writing by a registered owner of a
Bond entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the
equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by registered owners shall be filed with the Bond
Registrar, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver.
Upon surrender of such Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Bonds
shall be paid by the Paying Agent at the redemption price. The procedure for the payment of
interest due as part of the redemption price shall be as herein provided for payment of interest
otherwise due. Upon surrender for any partial redemption of any Bond, there shall be prepared
for the registered owner a new Bond or Bonds of like tenor, of authorized denominations, of the
-10-
same series and maturity, and bearing the same rate of interest in the amount of the unpaid
principal.
If any Bond or portion of a Bond called for redemption shall not be so paid upon
surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid or duly provided for, bear interest
from the redemption date at the rate borne by the Bond or portion of Bond so called for
redemption. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Bond
Registrar and shall not be reissued.
As part of their respective duties hereunder, the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent shall
prepare and forward to the Village a statement as to notice given with respect to each redemption
together with copies of the notices as mailed and published.
Section 8. Registration and Exchange or Transfer of Bonds; Persons Treated as
Owners. The Village shall cause books for the registration and for the transfer of the Bonds as
provided in this Ordinance to be kept at the principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar,
which is hereby constituted and appointed the registrar of the Village for the Bonds. The Village
is authorized to prepare, and the Bond Registrar or such other agent as the Village may designate
shall keep custody of, multiple Bond blanks executed by the Village for use in the transfer and
exchange of Bonds.
Any Bond may be transferred or exchanged, but only in the manner, subject to the
limitations, and upon payment of the charges as set forth in this Ordinance. Upon surrender for
transfer or exchange of any Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar,
duly endorsed by or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer or exchange
in form satisfactory to the Bond Registrar and duly executed by the registered owner or an
attorney for such owner duly authorized in writing, the Village shall execute and the Bond
Registrar shall authenticate, date and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees or, in the
-11-
case of an exchange, the registered owner, a new fully registered Bond or Bonds of like tenor, of
the same series and maturity, bearing the same interest rate, of authorized denominations, for a
like aggregate principal amount.
The Bond Registrar shall not be required to transfer or exchange any Bond during the
period from the close of business on the Record Date for an interest payment to the opening of
business on such interest payment date or during the period of 15 days preceding the giving of
notice of redemption of Bonds or to transfer or exchange any Bond all or a portion of which has
been called for redemption.
The execution by the Village of any fully registered Bond shall constitute full and due
authorization of such Bond, and the Bond Registrar shall thereby be authorized to authenticate,
date and deliver such Bond; provided, however, that the principal amount of Bonds of each series
and maturity authenticated by the Bond Registrar shall not at anyone time exceed the authorized
principal amount of Bonds for such series and maturity less the amount of such Bonds which
have been paid.
The person in whose name any Bond shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as
the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of the principal of or interest on any
Bond 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 to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Bonds, but the Village or
the Bond Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Bonds.
Section 9. Global Book-Entry System. If requested by the Purchaser, the Bonds shall
be initially issued in the form of a separate single fully registered Bond for each of the maturities
-12-
of the Bonds determined as described in Section 4 hereof. Upon initial issuance, the ownership
of each such Bond shall be registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede & Co., or any
successor thereto ("Cede "), as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New
York, and its successors and assigns ("DTC "). All of the outstanding Bonds shall be registered
in the Bond Register in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, except as hereinafter provided.
The President, Village Clerk and Village Treasurer and the Bond Registrar are each authorized to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Village, such letters to or agreements with DTC as shall be
necessary to effectuate such book-entry system (any such letter or agreement being referred to
herein as the "Representation Letter "), which Representation Letter may provide for the
payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds by wire transfer.
With respect to Bonds registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede, as nominee
of DTC, the Village and the Bond Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any
broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution for which DTC holds Bonds from time to time
as securities depository (each such broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution being
referred to herein as a "DTC Participant") or to any person on behalf of whom such a DTC
Participant holds an interest in the Bonds. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence,
the Village and the Bond Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to
(i) the accuracy of the records of DTC, Cede or any DTC Participant with respect to any
ownership interest in the Bonds, (ii) the delivery to any DTC Participant or any other person,
other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown in the Bond Register, of any notice with
respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or (iii) the payment to any DTC
Participant or any other person, other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown in the Bond
Register, of any amount with respect to the principal of or interest on the Bonds. The Village
and the Bond Registrar may treat and consider the person in whose name each Bond is registered
-13-
in the Bond Register as the holder and absolute owner of such Bond for the purpose of payment
of principal and interest with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of giving notices of
redemption and other matters with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers
with respect to such Bond, and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Bond Registrar shall pay
all principal of and interest on the Bonds only to or upon the order of the respective registered
owners of the Bonds, as shown in the Bond Register, or their respective attorneys duly
authorized in writing, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and
discharge the Village's obligations with respect to payment of the principal of and interest on the
Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No person other than a registered owner of a
Bond as shown in the Bond Register, shall receive a Bond evidencing the obligation of the
Village to make payments of principal and interest with respect to any Bond. Upon delivery by
DTC to the Bond Registrar of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a
new nominee in place of Cede, and subject to the provisions in Section 4 hereof with respect to
the payment of interest to the registered owners of Bonds at the close of business on the 15th day
of the month next preceding the applicable interest payment date, the name "Cede" in this
Ordinance shall refer to such new nominee of DTC.
In the event that (i) the Village determines that DTC is incapable of discharging its
responsibilities described herein and in the Representation Letter, (ii) the agreement among the
Village, the Bond Registrar and DTC evidenced by the Representation Letter shall be terminated
for any reason or (iii) the Village determines that it is in the best interests of the beneficial
owners of the Bonds that they be able to obtain certificated Bonds, the Village shall notify DTC
and DTC Participants of the availability through DTC of certificated Bonds and the Bonds shall
no longer be restricted to being registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede, as nominee
of DTC. At that time, the Village may determine that the Bonds shall be registered in the name
-14-
of and deposited with such other depository operating a universal book-entry system, as may be
acceptable to the Village, or such depository's agent or designee, and if the Village does not
select such alternate universal book-entry system, then the Bonds may be registered in whatever
name or names registered owners of Bonds transferring or exchanging Bonds shall designate, in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8 hereof.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Ordinance to the contrary, so long as any
Bond is registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect to
principal of and interest on such Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be made
and given, respectively, in the name provided in the Representation Letter.
Section 10. Form of Bond The Bonds shall be in substantially the form hereinafter set
forth; provided, however, that if the text of the Bonds is to be printed in its entirety on the front
side of the Bonds, then the second paragraph on the front side and the legend "See Reverse Side
for Additional Provisions" shall be omitted and the text of paragraphs set forth for the reverse
side shall be inserted immediately after the first paragraph.

Interest or principal coming due at any time when there are insufficient funds on hand

hand in advance of the collection of the Pledged Taxes herein levied; and when the Pledged
Taxes shall have been collected, reimbursement shall be made to said funds in the amount so

to take any action which in any way would adversely affect the ability of the Village to levy and
collect the foregoing tax levy. The Village and its officers will comply with all present and
-23-
future applicable laws in order to assure that the Pledged Taxes may be levied, extended and
collected as provided herein and deposited into the Bond Fund.
Whenever other funds from any lawful source are made available for the purpose of
paying any principal of or interest on the Bonds so as to enable the abatement of the taxes levied
herein for the payment of same, the Board shall, by proper proceedings, direct the deposit of
such funds into the Bond Fund and further shall direct the abatement of the taxes by the amount
so deposited. A certified copy or other notification of any such proceedings abating taxes may
then be filed with the County Clerk in a timely manner to effect such abatement.
Section 12. Filing with County Clerk. Promptly, as soon as this Ordinance becomes
effective, a copy hereof, certified by the Village Clerk of the Village shall be filed with the
County Clerk; and the County Clerk shall in and for each of the years 2009 to 2028, inclusive,
ascertain the rate percent required to produce the aggregate tax hereinbefore provided to be
levied in each of said years; and the County Clerk shall extend the same for collection on the tax
books in connection with other taxes levied in said years in and by the Village for general
corporate purposes of the Village; and in said years such annual tax shall be levied and collected
by and for and on behalf of the Village in like manner as taxes for general corporate purposes for
said years are levied and collected, and in addition to and in excess of all other taxes.

Purchaser upon the receipt of the Series 2009C Purchase Price; the contracts for the sale of the
Bonds, as evidenced by an "Official Notice of Sale" and an "Official Bid Form" for each series
of the Series 2009B Bonds and the Series 2009C Bonds (collectively, the "Purchase Contracts")
-24-
are in all respects ratified, approved and confirmed, it being hereby found and determined that
the Bonds have been sold at such prices and bear interest at such rates that neither the true
interest cost (yield) nor the net interest rate received upon such sale exceed the maximum rate
otherwise authorized by Illinois law and that the Purchase Contracts are in the best interests of
the Village and that no person holding any office of the Village, either by election or
appointment, is in any manner financially interested, directly in his own name or indirectly in the
name of any other person, association, trust or corporation, in the Purchase Contracts.
The use by the Purchaser of any Preliminary Official Statement and any final Official
Statement relating to the Bonds (the "Official Statement") is hereby ratified, approved and
authorized; the execution and delivery of the Official Statement is hereby authorized; and the
officers of the Board are hereby authorized to take any action as may be required on the part of
the Village to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Contracts, this
Ordinance, said Preliminary Official Statement, the Official Statement and the Bonds.
Section 14. Creation of Funds and Appropriations. The proceeds derived from the sale
of the Bonds shall be used as follows:
A. Accrued interest and premium, if any, on the Bonds shall be and is hereby
appropriated for the purpose of paying the first interest due on the Bonds, and to such end
is hereby ordered to be deposited into the "General Obligation Bonds, Series 2009B/C,
Bond Fund" (the "Bond Fund"), hereby created, which shall be the fund for the payment
of principal of and interest on the Bonds. Taxes received for the payment of the Bonds
shall be deposited into the Bond Fund and used solely and only for the purpose of paying
the Bonds. Interest received from investments on deposit in the Bond Fund shall be
retained therein as a credit against future deposits or transferred to such other fund as the
Board may from time to time determine.
The Pledged Taxes shall either be deposited into the Bond Fund and used solely
and only for paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds or be used to reimburse a
fund or account from which advances to the Bond Fund may have been made to pay
principal of or interest on the Bonds prior to receipt of Pledged Taxes. Interest income or
investment profit earned in the Bond Fund shall be retained in the Bond Fund for
payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds on the interest payment date next
after such interest or profit is received or, to the extent lawful and as determined by the
-25-
Board, transferred to such other fund as may be determined. The Village hereby pledges,
as equal and ratable security for the Bonds, all present and future proceeds of the Pledged
Taxes for the sole benefit of the registered owners of the Bonds, subject to the reserved
right of the Board to transfer certain interest income or investment profit earned in the
Bond Fund to other funds of the Village, as described in the preceding sentence.
B. The amount necessary from the proceeds of the Series 2009B Bonds,
together with other lawfully available funds of the Village as may be advisable for the
purpose, shall be used to provide for the Refunding and the payment of such expenses as
may be designated, pursuant to the provisions of the Escrow Agreement given to the
Escrow Agent, all in accordance with the provisions of such Escrow Agreement,
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A to this Ordinance, made a part
hereof by this reference, or with such changes therein as shall be approved by the officers
of the Village executing the Escrow Agreement, such execution to constitute evidence of
the approval of such changes, for the purpose of paying the principal of and interest on
the Refunded Bonds upon redemption hereof. The Board approves the form, terms and
provisions of the Escrow Agreement and directs the President and Village Clerk to
execute, attest, seal and deliver the Escrow Agreement in the name and on behalf of the
Village.
C. The proceeds of the Series 2009C Bonds shall be set aside in a separate
fund, hereby created, and designated as the "Project Fund" (the "Project Fund").
Money in the Project Fund shall be used to pay all costs of the Project and all costs and
expenses incidental or allocable or related thereto, including all costs of issuance of the
Series 2009C Bonds. The Board reserves the right, as it becomes necessary from time to
time, to revise the list of expenditures hereinabove set forth, to change priorities, to revise
cost allocations between expenditures and to substitute projects, in order to meet current
needs of the Village; subject, however, to the tax covenants set forth herein.
Section 15. Use of Taxes Heretofore Levied. All proceeds received or to be received
from any taxes heretofore levied to pay principal and interest on the Refunded Bonds, including
the proceeds received or to be received from the taxes levied for the year 2008 for such purposes,
shall be used to pay the principal of and interest on the Refunded Bonds and to the extent that
such proceeds are not needed for such purpose because of the establishment of the escrow
referred to in Section 14 hereof, the same shall be deposited into the Bond Fund and used to pay
principal and interest on the Series 2009B Bonds in accordance with all of the provisions of this
Ordinance.
-26-
Section 16. Non-Arbitrage and Tax-Exemption. The Series 2009C Bonds are not being
issued on a tax-exempt basis under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code "), and the Series 2009C Purchaser, by its acceptance of the Series 2009C Bonds,
acknowledges this fact and that the interest rate on the Series 2009C Bonds has been established
as a taxable interest rate. This Section applies only to the Series 2009B Bonds and references to
"Bonds" in this Section are to the Series 2009B Bonds.
One purpose of this Section is to set forth various facts regarding the Bonds and to
establish the expectations of the Board and the Village as to future events regarding the Bonds
and the use of Bond proceeds. The certifications, covenants and representations contained herein
and at the time of the Closing are made on behalf of the Village for the benefit of the owners
from time to time of the Bonds. In addition to providing the certifications, covenants and
representations contained herein, the Village hereby covenants that it will not take any action,
omit to take any action or permit the taking or omission of any action within its control
(including, without limitation, making or permitting any use of the proceeds of the Bonds) if
taking, permitting or omitting to take such action would cause any of the Bonds to be an
arbitrage bond or a private activity bond within the meaning of the hereinafter defined Code or
would otherwise cause the interest on the Bonds to be included in the gross income of the
recipients thereof for federal income tax purposes. The Village acknowledges that, in the event
of an examination by the Internal Revenue Service of the exemption from federal income
taxation for interest paid on the Bonds, under present rules, the Village may be treated as a
"taxpayer" in such examination and agrees that it will respond in a commercially reasonable
manner to any inquiries from the Internal Revenue Service in connection with such an
examination. The Board and the Village certify, covenant and represent as follows:

the revenue needs of the Village. A breakdown of the sources and uses of funds is set

paragraph 2.4 hereof, a like amount of then available funds of the Village will be treated
as unspent Sale Proceeds.
2.6. Investment of Bond Proceeds. No portion of the Bonds is being issued
solely for the purpose of investing a portion of Sale Proceeds or investment earnings
thereon at a Yield higher than the Yield on the Bonds.
2.7. No Grants. None of the Sale Proceeds or investment earnings thereon will
be used to make grants to any person.
2.8. Hedges. Neither the Village nor any member of the same Controlled
Group as the Village has entered into or expects to enter into any hedge (e.g., an interest
rate swap, interest rate cap, futures contract, forward contract or an option) with respect
to the Bonds or the Prior Bonds. The Village acknowledges that any such hedge could
affect, among other things, the calculation of Bond Yield under the Regulations. The
Internal Revenue Service could recalculate Bond Yield if the failure to account for the
hedge fails to clearly reflect the economic substance of the transaction.
The Village also acknowledges that if it acquires a hedging contract with an
investment element (including e.g., an off-market swap agreement, or any cap agreement
for which all or a portion of the premium is paid at, or before the effective date of the cap
agreement), then a portion of such hedging contract may be treated as an investment of
Gross Proceeds of the Bonds, and be subject to the fair market purchase price rules,
rebate and yield restriction. The Village agrees not to use proceeds of the Bonds to pay
for any such hedging contract in whole or in part. The Village also agrees that it will not
give any assurances to any Bond holder or any credit or liquidity enhancer with respect to
the Bonds that any such hedging contract will be entered into or maintained. The Village
recognizes that if a portion of a hedging contract is determined to be an investment of
gross proceeds, such portion may not be fairly priced even if the hedging contract as a
whole is fairly priced.
2.9. Internal Revenue Service Audits. The Village represents that the Internal
Revenue Service has not contacted the Village regarding the Prior Bonds or any other
obligations issued by or on behalf of the Village. To the best of the knowledge of the
Village, no such obligations of the Village are currently under examination by the
Internal Revenue Service.
2.10. Abusive Transactions. Neither the Village nor any member of the same
Controlled Group as the Village will receive a rebate or credit resulting from any
payments having been made in connection with the issuance of the Bonds or the advance
refunding of the Refunded Bonds.
3.1. Use of Proceeds. (a) The use of the Sale Proceeds and investment
earnings thereon and the funds held under this Ordinance at the time of Closing are
-33-
described in Section 14 of this Ordinance. No Sale Proceeds will be used to pre-pay for
goods or services to be received over a period of years prior to the date such goods or
services are to be received. No Sale Proceeds or any investment earnings thereon will be
used to pay for or otherwise acquire goods or services from an Affiliated Person.
(b) Only the funds and accounts described in said Section will be funded at
Closing. There are no other funds or accounts created under this Ordinance, other than
the Rebate Fund if it is created as provided in paragraph 4.2 hereof.
(c) Principal of and interest on the Bonds will be paid from the Bond Fund.
(d) Any Costs of Issuance incurred in connection with the issuance of the Bonds
to be paid by the Village will be paid at the time of Closing.
3.2. Purpose of Bond Fund The Bond Fund will be used primarily to achieve a
proper matching of revenues and earnings with principal and interest payments on the
Bonds in each bond year. It is expected that the Bond Fund will be depleted at least once
a year, except for a reasonable carry over amount not to exceed the greater of (a) the
earnings on the investment of moneys in the Bond Fund for the immediately preceding
bond year or (b) l/12th of the principal and interest payments on the Bonds for the
immediately preceding bond year.
3.3. The Prior Bonds. (a) As of the earlier of (i) the time of the Closing or
(ii) the date three years after the Prior Bonds were issued, all Prior Bond Proceeds
including investment earnings thereon, were completely spent to pay the costs of Capital
Expenditures.
(b) As of the date hereof, no Prior Bond Proceeds or money or property of any
kind (including cash) is on deposit in any fund or account, regardless of where held or the
source thereof, with respect to the Prior Bonds or any credit enhancement or liquidity
device relating to the foregoing, or is otherwise restricted to pay the Village's obligations
other than amounts on deposit in the Escrow Account.
(c) The Prior Bond Fund was used primarily to achieve a proper matching of
revenues and earnings with principal and interest payments on the Prior Bonds in each
bond year. The Prior Bond Fund was depleted at least once a year, except for a
reasonable carry over amount not to exceed the greater of (i) the earnings on the
investment of moneys in such account for the immediately preceding bond year or
(ii) one-twelfth (l/12th) of the principal and interest payments on the Prior Bonds.
(d) At the time the Prior Bonds were issued, the Village reasonably expected to
spend at least 85% of the proceeds (including investment earnings) of the Prior Bonds to
be used for non-refunding purposes for such purposes within three years of the date each
such issue was issued and such proceeds were so spent. Not more than 50% of the
proceeds of any such issue to be used for non-refunding purposes was invested in
investments having a substantially guaranteed Yield for four years or more.
-34-
(e) The Refunded Bonds subject to redemption prior to maturity will be called
on the first optional redemption date of the Refunded Bonds.
(f) The Refunded Bonds do not include, directly or indirectly in a series, any
advance refunding obligations.
(g) The Village has not been notified that the Prior Bonds are under
examination by the Internal Revenue Service, and to the best of the Village's knowledge
the Prior Bonds are not under examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
(h) The Village acknowledges that (i) the final rebate payment with respect to
the Prior Bonds may be required to be made sooner than if the refunding had not occurred
and (ii) the final rebate is due 60 days after the Prior Bonds are paid in full.
3.4. The Escrow Account. (a) The Escrow Account will be funded at the
Closing.
(b) The uninvested cash and anticipated receipts from the Government
Securities on deposit in the Escrow Account, without regard to any reinvestment thereof,
will be sufficient to pay, when due, principal and interest on the Refunded Bonds as such
become due and payable and to redeem the outstanding principal amount of any callable
Refunded Bonds on the first optional redemption date of such callable Refunded Bonds,
at the applicable redemption price thereof.
(c) Any moneys remaining on deposit in the Escrow Account upon the final
disbursement of funds sufficient to pay principal and interest of the Refunded Bonds shall
be transferred by the Escrow Agent to the Bond Fund to be used to pay interest on the
Bonds.
3.5. No Other Gross Proceeds. (a) Except for the Bond Fund and except for
investment earnings that have been commingled as described in paragraph 2.2 and any
credit enhancement or liquidity device related to the Bonds, after the issuance of the
Bonds, neither the Village nor any member of the same Controlled Group as the Village
has or will have any property, including cash, securities or any other property held as a
passive vehicle for the production of income or for investment purposes, that constitutes:
(i) Sale Proceeds;
(ii) amounts in any fund or account with respect to the Bonds (other than
the Rebate Fund);
(iii) Transferred Proceeds;
(iv) amounts that have a sufficiently direct nexus to the Bonds or to the
governmental purpose of the Bonds to conclude that the amounts would have
been used for that governmental purpose if the Bonds were not used or to be used
-35-
for that governmental purpose (the mere availability or preliminary earmarking of
such amounts for a governmental purpose, however, does not itself establish such
a sufficient nexus);
(v) amounts in a debt service fund, redemption fund, reserve fund,
replacement fund or any similar fund to the extent reasonably expected to be used
directly or indirectly to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds or any amounts
for which there is provided, directly or indirectly, a reasonable assurance that the
amount will be available to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds or any
obligations under any credit enhancement or liquidity device with respect to the
Bonds, even if the Village encounters financial difficulties;
(vi) any amounts held pursuant to any agreement (such as an agreement to
maintain certain levels of types of assets) made for the benefit of the Bondholders
or any credit enhancement provider, including any liquidity device or negative
pledge (e.g., any amount pledged to pay principal of or interest on an issue held
under an agreement to maintain the amount at a particular level for the direct or
indirect benefit of holders of the Bonds or a guarantor of the Bonds); or
(vii) amounts actually or constructively received from the investment and
reinvestment of the amounts described in (i) or (ii) above.
(b) No compensating balance, liquidity account, negative pledge of property
held for investment purposes required to be maintained at least at a particular level or
similar arrangement exists with respect to, in any way, the Bonds or any credit
enhancement or liquidity device related to the Bonds.
(c) The term of the Bonds is not longer than is reasonably necessary for the
governmental purposes of the Bonds. The average reasonably expected remaining
economic life of the Prior Project is at least 12 years. The weighted average maturity of
the Bonds does not exceed 12 years and does not exceed 120 percent of the average
reasonably expected economic life of the Prior Project. The maturity schedule of the
Bonds (the "Principal Payment Schedule") is based on an analysis of revenues expected
to be available to pay debt service on the Bonds. The Principal Payment Schedule is not
more rapid (i.e., having a lower average maturity) because a more rapid schedule would
place an undue burden on tax rates and cause such rates to be increased beyond prudent
levels, and would be inconsistent with the governmental purpose of the Bonds as set forth
in paragraph 2.1 hereof.
4.1. Compliance with Rebate Provisions. The Village covenants to take such
actions and make, or cause to be made, all calculations, transfers and payments that may
be necessary to comply with the Rebate Provisions applicable to the Bonds. The Village
will make, or cause to be made, rebate payments with respect to the Bonds in accordance
with law.
-36-
4.2. Rebate Fund The Village is hereby authorized to create and establish a
special fund to be known as the Rebate Fund (the "Rebate Fund"), which, if created,
shall be continuously held, invested, expended and accounted for in accordance with this
Ordinance. Moneys in the Rebate Fund shall not be considered moneys held for the
benefit of the owners of the Bonds. Except as provided in the Regulations, moneys in the
Rebate Fund (including earnings and deposits therein) shall be held in trust for payment
to the United States as required by the Rebate Provisions and by the Regulations and as
contemplated under the provisions of this Ordinance.
4.3. Records. The Village agrees to keep and retain or cause to be kept and
retained for the period described in paragraph 7.9 adequate records with respect to the
investment of all Gross Proceeds and amounts in the Rebate Fund. Such records shall
include: (a) purchase price; (b) purchase date; (c) type of investment; (d) accrued interest
paid; (e) interest rate; (f) principal amount; (g) maturity date; (h) interest payment date;
(i) date of liquidation; and G) receipt upon liquidation.
If any investment becomes Gross Proceeds on a date other than the date such
investment is purchased, the records required to be kept shall include the fair market
value of such investment on the date it becomes Gross Proceeds. If any investment is
retained after the date the last Bond is retired, the records required to be kept shall
include the fair market value of such investment on the date the last Bond is retired.
Amounts or investments will be segregated whenever necessary to maintain these
records.
4.4. Fair Market Value; Certificates of Deposit and Investment Agreements.
The Village will continuously invest all amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund, together
with the amounts, if any, to be transferred to the Rebate Fund, in any investment
permitted under this Ordinance. In making investments of Gross Proceeds or of amounts
in the Rebate Fund the Village shall take into account prudent investment standards and
the date on which such moneys may be needed. Except as provided in the next sentence,
all amounts that constitute Gross Proceeds and all amounts in the Rebate Fund shall be
invested at all times to the greatest extent practicable, and no amounts may be held as
cash or be invested in zero yield investments other than obligations of the United States
purchased directly from the United States. In the event moneys cannot be invested, other
than as provided in this sentence due to the denomination, price or availability of
investments, the amounts shall be invested in an interest bearing deposit of a bank with a
yield not less than that paid to the general public or held uninvested to the minimum
extent necessary.
Gross Proceeds and any amounts in the Rebate Fund that are invested in
certificates of deposit or in GICs shall be invested only in accordance with the following
proVIsIons:
(a) Investments in certificates of deposit of banks or savings and loan
associations that have a fixed interest rate, fixed payment schedules and
substantial penalties for early withdrawal shall be made only if either (i) the Yield
-37-
on the certificate of deposit (A) is not less than the Yield on reasonably
comparable direct obligations of the United States and (B) is not less than the
highest Yield that is published or posted by the provider to be currently available
from the provider on reasonably comparable certificates of deposit offered to the
public or (ii) the investment is an investment in a GIC and qualifies under
paragraph (b) below.
(b) Investments in GICs shall be made only if
(i) the bid specifications are in writing, include all material terms
of the bid and are timely forwarded to potential providers (a term is
material if it may directly or indirectly affect the yield on the GIC);
(ii) the terms of the bid specifications are commercially reasonable
(a term is commercially reasonable if there is a legitimate business
purpose for the term other than to reduce the yield on the GIC);
(iii) all bidders for the GIC have equal opportunity to bid so that,
for example, no bidder is given the opportunity to review other bids (a last
look) before bidding;
(iv) any agent used to conduct the bidding for the GIC does not bid
to provide the GIC;
(v) at least three of the providers solicited for bids for the GIC are
reasonably competitive providers of investments of the type purchased
(i.e., providers that have established industry reputations as competitive
providers of the type of investments being purchased);
(vi) at least three of the entities that submit a bid do not have a
financial interest in the Bonds;
(vii) at least one of the entities that provided a bid is a reasonably
competitive provider that does not have a financial interest in the Bonds;
(viii) the bid specifications include a statement notifying potential
providers that submission of a bid is a representation that the potential
provider did not consult with any other provider about its bid, that the bid
was determined without regard to any other formal or informal agreement
that the potential provider has with the Village or any other person
(whether or not in connection with the Bonds) and that the bid is not being
submitted solely as a courtesy to the Village or any other person for
purposes of satisfying the federal income tax requirements relating to the
bidding for the GIC;
-38-
(ix) the determination of the terms of the GIC takes into account
the reasonably expected deposit and drawdown schedule for the amounts
to be invested;
(x) the highest-yielding GIC for which a qualifying bid is made
(determined net of broker's fees) is in fact purchased; and
(xi) the obligor on the GIC certifies the administrative costs that it
is paying or expects to pay to third parties in connection with the GIC.
(c) If a GIC is purchased, the Village will retain the following records
with its bond documents until three years after the Bonds are redeemed in their
entirety:
(i) a copy of the GIC;
(ii) the receipt or other record of the amount actually paid for the
GIC, including a record of any administrative costs paid, and the
certification under subparagraph (b)(xi) of this paragraph;
(iii) for each bid that is submitted, the name of the person and entity
submitting the bid, the time and date of the bid, and the bid results; and
(iv) the bid solicitation form and, if the terms of the GIC deviated
from the bid solicitation form or a submitted bid is modified, a brief
statement explaining the deviation and stating the purpose for the
deviation.
Moneys to be rebated to the United States shall be invested to mature on or prior
to the anticipated rebate payment date. All investments made with Gross Proceeds or
amounts in the Rebate Fund shall be bought and sold at fair market value. The fair
market value of an investment is the price at which a willing buyer would purchase the
investment from a willing seller in a bona fide, arm's length transaction. Except for
investments specifically described in this Section and United States Treasury obligations
that are purchased directly from the United States Treasury, only investments that are
traded on an established securities market, within the meaning of regulations promulgated
under Section 1273 of the Code, will be purchased with Gross Proceeds. In general, an
"established securities market" includes: (i) property that is listed on a national securities
exchange, an interdealer quotation system or certain foreign exchanges; (ii) property that
is traded on a Commodities Futures Trading Commission designated board of trade or an
interbank market; (iii) property that appears on a quotation medium; and (iv) property for
which price quotations are readily available from dealers and brokers. A debt instrument
is not treated as traded on an established market solely because it is convertible into
property which is so traded.
-39-
An investment of Gross Proceeds in an External Commingled Fund shall be made
only to the extent that such investment is made without an intent to reduce the amount to
be rebated to the United States Government or to create a smaller profit or a larger loss
than would have resulted if the transaction had been at arm's length and had the rebate or
Yield restriction requirements not been relevant to the Village. An investment of Gross
Proceeds shall be made in a Commingled Fund other than an External Commingled Fund
only if the investments made by such Commingled Fund satisfy the provisions of this
paragraph.
A single investment, or multiple investments awarded to a provider based on a
single bid may not be used for funds subject to different rules relating to rebate or yield
restriction.
The foregoing provisions of this paragraph satisfy various safe harbors set forth in
the Regulations relating to the valuation of certain types of investments. The safe harbor
provisions of this paragraph are contained herein for the protection of the Village, who
has covenanted not to take any action to adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the
interest on the Bonds. The Village will contact Bond Counsel if it does not wish to
comply with the provisions of this paragraph and forego the protection provided by the
safe harbors provided herein.
4.5. Arbitrage Elections. The President, Village Clerk and Village Treasurer
are hereby authorized to execute one or more elections regarding certain matters with
respect to arbitrage. The Village hereby waives its right to invest the Escrow Account
above the yield on the Bonds.
5.1. Issue Price. For purposes of determining the Yield on the Bonds, the
purchase price of the Bonds is equal to the first offering price (including accrued interest)
at which the Purchaser sold at least ten percent of the principal amount of each maturity
of the Bonds to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers or similar persons or
organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers).
All of the Bonds have been the subject of a bona fide initial offering to the public
(excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the
capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers) at prices equal to those set
forth in the Official Statement. Based upon prevailing market conditions, such prices are
not less than the fair market value of each Bond as of the sale date for the Bonds.
5.2. Yield Limits. Except as provided in paragraph (a) or (b), all Gross Proceeds
shall be invested at market prices and at a Yield (after taking into account any Yield
Reduction Payments) not in excess of the Yield on the Bonds.
The following may be invested without Yield restriction:
(a) amounts on deposit in the Bond Fund (except for capitalized interest) that
have not been on deposit under the Ordinance for more than 13 months, so long as the
-40-
Bond Fund continues to qualify as a bona fide debt servIce fund as described III
paragraph 3.2 hereof;
(b) (i) An amount not to exceed the lesser of $100,000 or five percent of the
Sale Proceeds;
(ii) amounts invested in Qualified Tax Exempt Obligations (to the extent
permitted by law and this Ordinance);
(iii) amounts in the Rebate Fund;
(iv) all amounts other than Sale Proceeds for the first 30 days after they
become Gross Proceeds; and
(v) all amounts derived from the investment of Sale Proceeds or
investment earnings thereon other than those on deposit in the Escrow Account
for a period of one year from the date received.
5.3. Yield Limits on Prior Bond Proceeds. Except for an amount not to exceed
the lesser of $100,000 or five percent of Prior Bond Proceeds, the Village acknowledges
that all Prior Bond Proceeds must be invested at market prices and at a Yield not in
excess of the Yield on the Prior Bonds.
5.4. Continuing Nature of Yield Limits. Except as provided in paragraph 7.10
hereof, once moneys are subject to the Yield limits of paragraph 5.2 hereof, such moneys
remain Yield restricted until they cease to be Gross Proceeds.
5.5. Federal Guarantees. Except for investments meeting the requirements of
paragraph 5.2(a) hereof and except for investments in the Escrow Account, investments
of Gross Proceeds shall not be made in (a) investments constituting obligations of or
guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the United States (except obligations of the United
States Treasury or investments in obligations issued pursuant to Section 21B(d)(3) of the
Federal Home Loan Bank, as amended (e.g., Refcorp Strips)); or (b) federally insured
deposits or accounts (as defined in Section 149(b)(4)(B) of the Code). Except as
otherwise permitted in the immediately prior sentence and in the Regulations, no portion
of the payment of principal or interest on the Bonds or any credit enhancement or
liquidity device relating to the foregoing is or will be guaranteed, directly or indirectly (in
whole or in part), by the United States (or any agency or instrumentality thereof),
including a lease, incentive payment, research or output contract or any similar
arrangement, agreement or understanding with the United States or any agency or
instrumentality thereof. No portion of the Gross Proceeds has been or will be used to
make loans the payment of principal or interest with respect to which is or will be
guaranteed (in whole or in part) by the United States (or any agency or instrumentality
thereof). Neither this paragraph nor paragraph 5.6 hereof applies to any guarantee by the
Federal Housing Administration, the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, the Government National Mortgage Association, the
-41-
Student Loan Marketing Association or the Bonneville Power Administration pursuant to
the Northwest Power Act (16 U.S.C. 839d) as in effect on the date of enactment of the
Tax Reform Act of 1984.
5.6. Investments After the Expiration of Temporary Periods, Etc. Any amounts,
other than amounts in the Escrow Account, that are subject to the yield limitation in
Section 5.2 because Section 5.2(a) is not applicable and amounts not subject to yield
restriction only because they are described in Section 5.2(b) cannot be invested in
(i) federally insured deposits or accounts (as defined in Section 149(b)(4)(B) of the Code
or (ii) investments constituting obligations of or guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the
United States (except obligations of the United States Treasury or investments in
obligations issued pursuant to Section 21B(d)(3) of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act, as
amended (e.g., Refcorp Strips).
6.1. Payment and Use Tests. (a) No more than five percent of the proceeds of
each issue of the Prior Bonds and investment earnings thereon were used, directly or
indirectly, in whole or in part, in any Private Business Use. The Village acknowledges
that, for purposes of the preceding sentence, Gross Proceeds used to pay costs of issuance
and other common costs (such as capitalized interest and fees paid for a qualified
guarantee or qualified hedge) or invested in a reserve or replacement fund must be ratably
allocated among all the purposes for which Gross Proceeds are being used.
(b) The payment of more than five percent of the principal of or the interest on
the Bonds or on each issue of the Prior Bonds considered separately will not be, directly
or indirectly (i) secured by any interest in (A) property used or to be used in any Private
Business Use or (B) payments in respect of such property or (ii) on a present value basis,
derived from payments (whether or not to the Village or a member of the same
Controlled Group as the Village) in respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to
be used in any Private Business Use.
(c) No more than the lesser of $5,000,000 or five percent of the sum of the
proceeds of each issue of the Prior Bonds and investment earnings thereon were used,
and no more than the lesser of $5,000,000 or five percent of the sum of the Sale Proceeds
and investment earnings thereon will be used, directly or indirectly, to make or finance
loans to any persons. The Village acknowledges that, for purposes of the preceding
sentence, Gross Proceeds used to pay costs of issuance and other common costs (such as
capitalized interest and fees paid for a qualified guarantee or qualified hedge) or invested
in a reserve or replacement fund must be ratably allocated among all the purposes for
which Gross Proceeds are being used.
(d) No user of the Prior Project other than a state or local governmental unit will
use more than five percent of such facilities, considered separately, on any basis other
than the same basis as the general public.
6.2. IR.S. Form 8038-0. The information contained in the Information Return
for Tax-Exempt Governmental Obligations, Form 8038-G, is true and complete. The
-42-
Village will file Form 8038-G (and all other required information reporting forms) in a
timely manner.
6.3. Bank Qualification. (a) The Village hereby designates each of the Bonds
as a "qualified tax-exempt obligation" for the purposes and within the meaning of
Section 265(b)(3) of the Code. In support of such designation, the Village hereby
certifies that (i) none of the Bonds will be at anytime a "private activity bond" (as defined
in Section 141 of the Code) other than a "qualified 501(c)(3) bond" (as defined in
Section 145 of the Code), (ii) as of the date hereof in calendar year 2009, the Village has
not issued any tax-exempt obligations of any kind other than the General Obligation
Bonds, Series 2009 dated March 11, 2009 (the "Series 2009 Bonds") and the Bonds nor
have any tax-exempt obligations of any kind been issued on behalf of the Village and
(iii) not more than $30,000,000 of obligations of any kind (including the Series 2009
Bonds and the Bonds) issued by or on behalf of the Village during calendar year 2009
will be designated for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.
(b) The Village is not subject to Control by any entity, and there are no entities
subject to Control by the Village.
(c) On the date hereof, the Village does not reasonably anticipate that for
calendar year 2009 it will issue any Section 265 Tax-Exempt Obligations (other than the
Series 2009 Bonds and the Bonds), or that any Section 265 Tax-Exempt Obligations will
be issued on behalf of it. "Section 265 Tax-Exempt Obligations" are obligations the
interest on which is excludable from gross income of the owners thereof under
Section 1 03 of the Code, except for private activity bonds other than qualified 501 (c )(3)
bonds, both as defined in Section 141 of the Code. The Village will not issue or permit
the issuance on behalf of it or by any entity subject to Control by the Village (which may
hereafter come into existence) of Section 265 Tax-Exempt Obligations (including the
Series 2009 Bonds and the Bonds) that exceed the aggregate amount of $30,000,000
during calendar year 2009 unless it first obtains an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect
that such issuance will not adversely affect the treatment of the Bonds as "qualified
tax-exempt obligations" for the purposes and within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of
the Code.
7.1. Termination; Interest of Village in Rebate Fund The terms and provisions
set forth in this Section shall terminate at the later of (a) 75 days after the Bonds have
been fully paid and retired or (b) the date on which all amounts remaining on deposit in
the Rebate Fund, if any, shall have been paid to or upon the order of the United States
and any other payments required to satisfy the Rebate Provisions of the Code have been
made to the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of
paragraphs 4.3, 4.4(c) and 7.9 hereof shall not terminate until the third anniversary of the
date the Bonds are fully paid and retired.
7.2. Separate Issue. Since a date that is 15 days prior to the date of sale of the
Bonds by the Village to the Purchaser, neither the Village nor any member of the same
Controlled Group as the Village has sold or delivered any tax-exempt obligations other
-43-
than the Bonds and the Series 2009C Bonds that are reasonably expected to be paid out of
substantially the same source of funds as the Bonds. Neither the Village nor any member
of the same Controlled Group as the Village will sell or deliver within 15 days after the
date of sale of the Bonds any tax-exempt obligations other than the Bonds and the
Series 2009C Bonds that are reasonably expected to be paid out of substantially the same
source of funds as the Bonds.
7.3. No Sale of the Prior Project. (a) Other than as provided in the next
sentence, neither the Prior Project nor any portion thereof has been, is expected to be, or
will be sold or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in part, prior to the earlier of (i) the last
date of the reasonably expected economic life to the Village of the property (determined
on the date of issuance of the Bonds) or (ii) the last maturity date of the Bonds. The
Village may dispose of personal property in the ordinary course of an established
government program prior to the earlier of (i) the last date of the reasonably expected
economic life to the Village of the property (determined on the date of issuance of the
Bonds) or (ii) the last maturity of the Bonds, provided: (A) the weighted average
maturity of the Bonds financing the personal property is not greater than 120 percent of
the reasonably expected actual use of that property for governmental purposes; (B) the
Village reasonably expects on the issue date that the fair market value of that property on
the date of disposition will be not greater than 25 percent of its cost; (C) the property is
no longer suitable for its governmental purposes on the date of disposition; and (D) the
Village deposits amounts received from the disposition in a commingled fund with
substantial tax or other governmental revenues and the Village reasonably expects to
spend the amounts on governmental programs within six months from the date of the
commingling.
(b) The Village acknowledges that if property financed with the Prior Bonds is
sold or otherwise disposed of in a manner contrary to (a) above, such sale or disposition
may constitute a "deliberate action" within the meaning of the Regulations that may
require remedial actions to prevent the Bonds from becoming private activity bonds. The
Village shall promptly contact Bond Counsel if a sale or other disposition of Bond-
financed property is considered by the Village.
7.4. Purchase of Bonds by Village. The Village will not purchase any of the
Bonds except to cancel such Bonds.
7.5. First Call Date Limitation. The period between the date of Closing and the
first call date of the Bonds is not more than 10-1/2 years.
7.6. Registered Form. The Village recognizes that Section 149(a) of the Code
requires the Bonds to be issued and to remain in fully registered form in order that
interest thereon be exempt from federal income taxation under laws in force at the time
the Bonds are delivered. In this connection, the Village agrees that it will not take any
action to permit the Bonds to be issued in, or converted into, bearer or coupon form.
-44-
7. 7. First Amendment. The Village acknowledges and agrees that it will not
use, or allow the Prior Project to be used, in a manner which is prohibited by the

7. 8. Future Events. The Village acknowledges that any changes in facts or
expectations from those set forth herein may result in different Yield restrictions or rebate
requirements from those set forth herein. The Village shall promptly contact Bond
Counsel if such changes do occur.
7.9. Records Retention. The Village agrees to keep and retain or cause to be
kept and retained sufficient records to support the continued exclusion of the interest paid
on the Bonds from federal income taxation, to demonstrate compliance with the
covenants in this Ordinance and to show that all tax returns related to the Bonds
submitted or required to be submitted to the Internal Revenue Service are correct and
timely filed. Such records shall include, but are not limited to, basic records relating to
the Bond transaction (including this Ordinance and the Bond Counsel opinion);
documentation evidencing the expenditure of Bond proceeds; documentation evidencing
the use of Bond-financed property by public and private entities (i.e., copies of leases,
management contracts and research agreements); documentation evidencing all sources
of payment or security for the Bonds; and documentation pertaining to any investment of
Bond proceeds (including the information required under paragraphs 4.3 and 4.4 hereof
and in particular information related to the purchase and sale of securities, SLGs
subscriptions, yield calculations for each class of investments, actual investment income
received from the investment of proceeds, guaranteed investment contracts and
documentation of any bidding procedure related thereto and any fees paid for the
acquisition or management of investments and any rebate calculations). Such records
shall be kept for as long as the Bonds are outstanding, plus three (3) years after the later
of the final payment date of the Bonds or the final payment date of any obligations or
series of obligations issued to refund directly or indirectly all or any portion of the Bonds.
7.10. Permitted Changes; Opinion of Bond Counsel. The Yield restrictions
contained in paragraph 5.2 hereof or any other restriction or covenant contained herein
need not be observed or may be changed if such nonobservance or change will not result
in the loss of any exemption for the purpose of federal income taxation to which interest
on the Bonds is otherwise entitled and the Village receives an opinion of Bond Counsel
to such effect. Unless the Village otherwise directs, such opinion shall be in such form
and contain such disclosures and disclaimers as may be required so that such opinion will
not be treated as a covered opinion or a state or local bond opinion for purposes of
Treasury Department regulations governing practice before the Internal Revenue Service
(Circular 230) 31 C.F.R. pt. 10.
7.11. Excess Proceeds. Gross Proceeds of the Bonds and investment earnings
thereon and all unspent Prior Bond Proceeds as of the date of Closing and investment
-45-
earnings thereon do not exceed by more than one percent of the Sale Proceeds of the
Bonds the amount that will be used for:
(i) payment of principal of or interest or call premium on the Refunded
Bonds or on bond issues refunded directly or indirectly with the proceeds of the
Prior Bonds;
(ii) payment of pre-issuance accrued interest on the Bonds and interest on
the Bonds that accrues for a period up to the completion date of any capital
project for which the prior issue was issued, plus one year;
(iii) payment of cost of issuance of the Bonds;
(iv) payment of administrative costs allocable to repaying the Refunded
Bonds, carrying and repaying the Bonds or investments of the Bonds;
(v) Prior Bond Proceeds that will be used or maintained for the
governmental purpose of the Refunded Bonds; and
(vi) interest on purpose investments.
7.12. Successors and Assigns. The terms, provisions, covenants and conditions
of this Section shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns
of the Board and the Village.
7.13. Expectations. The Corporate Authorities have reviewed the facts, estimates
and circumstances in existence on the date of issuance of the Bonds. Such facts,
estimates and circumstances, together with the expectations of the Village as to future
events, are set forth in summary form in this Section. Such facts and estimates are true
and are not incomplete in any material respect. On the basis of the facts and estimates
contained herein, the Village has adopted the expectations contained herein. On the basis
of such facts, estimates, circumstances and expectations, it is not expected that Sale
Proceeds, investment earnings thereon or any other moneys or property will be used in a
manner that will cause the Bonds to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of the Rebate
Provisions and the Regulations. Such expectations are reasonable and there are no other
facts, estimates and circumstances that would materially change such expectations.
The Village also agrees and covenants with the purchasers and holders of the Bonds from
time to time outstanding that, to the extent possible under Illinois law, it will comply with
whatever federal tax law is adopted in the future which applies to the Bonds and affects the
tax-exempt status of the Bonds.
-46-
The Board hereby authorizes the officials of the Village responsible for issuing the
Bonds, the same being the President, Village Clerk and Treasurer of the Village, to make such
further covenants and certifications as may be necessary to assure that the use thereof will not
cause the Bonds to be arbitrage bonds and to assure that the interest on the Bonds will be exempt
from federal income taxation. In connection therewith, the Village and the Board further agree:
(a) through their officers, to make such further specific covenants, representations as shall be
truthful, and assurances as may be necessary or advisable; (b) to consult with counsel approving
the Bonds and to comply with such advice as may be given; (c) to pay to the United States, as
necessary, such sums of money representing required rebates of excess arbitrage profits relating
to the Bonds; (d) to file such forms, statements, and supporting documents as may be required
and in a timely manner; and (e) if deemed necessary or advisable by their officers, to employ and
pay fiscal agents, financial advisors, attorneys, and other persons to assist the Village in such
compliance.
Section 17. Elections Concerning the Series 2009C Bonds. The Village hereby makes
an irrevocable election to apply Section 54 AA of the Code and Subsection 54 AA(g) of the
Code to the Series 2009C Bonds and designates each of the Series 2009C Bonds as a "build
America bond" within the meaning of Section 54 AA( d) of the Code and as a "qualified bond"
within the meaning of Section 54 AA(g) of the Code. The Village recognizes that as a result of
these elections, interest on the Series 2009C Bonds shall be includable in gross income of the
owners thereof for federal income tax purposes and the owners of the Series 2009C Bonds will
not be entitled to any tax credits with respect to the Series 2009C Bonds under Section 54 AA of
the Code. The Village also recognizes that it must take certain future actions and omit other
future actions in order for the Series 2009C Bonds to remain "build America bonds." The
Village will only apply for tax credits under Section 6431 of the Code with respect to the
-47-
Series 2009C Bonds if the Village has not taken and does not intend to take any action, and has
not omitted to take and does not intend to omit to take, any action or permit the taking or
omission of any action within its control (including, without limitation, making or permitting any
use of the proceeds of the Series 2009C Bonds or facilities financed therewith) if taking,
permitting or omitting to take such action would cause any of the Series 2009C Bonds to be an
arbitrage bond or a private activity bond within the meaning of the Code, or would otherwise
cause the Series 2009C Bonds to not be "build America bonds." The Village acknowledges that,
in the event of an examination by the Internal Revenue Service of the status of the Series 2009C
Bonds, under present rules, the Village may be treated as a "taxpayer" in such examination and
agrees that it will respond in a commercially reasonable manner to any inquiries from the
Internal Revenue Service in connection with such an examination. The Board hereby authorizes
the officials of the Village responsible for issuing the Series 2009C Bonds, the same being the
President, Village Clerk and Treasurer of the Village, to make such further covenants and
certifications regarding the specific use of the proceeds of the Series 2009C Bonds and as may be
necessary to assure that the use thereof will not cause the Series 2009C Bonds to be arbitrage
bonds and to assure that the Series 2009C Bonds will be "build America bonds" to the extent that
the Village desires such Series 2009C Bonds to be "build America bonds." In connection
therewith, the Village and the Board further agree: (a) through their officers, to make such
further specific covenants, representations as shall be truthful, and assurances as may be
necessary or advisable; (b) to consult with counsel approving the Series 2009C Bonds and to
comply with such advice as may be given; (c) to pay to the United States, as necessary, such
sums of money representing required rebates of excess arbitrage profits relating to the
Series 2009C Bonds; (d) to file such forms, statements, and supporting documents as may be
required and in a timely manner; and (e) if deemed necessary or advisable by their officers, to
-48-
employ and pay fiscal agents, financial advisors, attorneys, and other persons to assist the
Village in such compliance.
Section 18. Registered Form. The Village recognizes that Section 149(a) of the Code
requires the Bonds to be issued and to remain in fully registered form and the Village agrees that
it will not take any action to permit the Bonds to be issued in, or converted into, bearer or coupon
form.
Section 19. Rights and Duties of Bond Registrar and Paying Agent. If requested by the
Bond Registrar or the Paying Agent, or both, any officer of the Village is authorized to execute
standard forms of agreements between the Village and the Bond Registrar or Paying Agent with
respect to the obligations and duties of the Bond Registrar or Paying Agent hereunder. In

(b) which have matured and for which sufficient sums been deposited with the Paying Agent to
pay all principal and interest due thereon, or (c) for which sufficient Defeasance Obligations

taking into account investment earnings on such obligations, all principal of and interest on such

ability of the beneficial owner of any Bond to seek mandamus or specific performance by court
order, to cause the Village to comply with its obligations under the Continuing Disclosure
Undertaking.
