agents as the City may determine.
(f) The City may authorize by Supplemental Indenture such other provisions relating to
a Series of Bonds as are permitted by law and are consistent with the provisions of the Indenture.
(g) After the original issuance of the Bonds of any Series, no Bonds of such Series shall
be issued except in lieu of or in substitution for other Bonds of such Series pursuant to
Article III, Section 4.04 or Section 8.06.
(h) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 2.02 to the contrary, a Supplemental
Indenture may provide for the delivery of a Series of Bonds, issued in the form of a single Bond,
in installments to be noted by the Trustee in a delivery schedule on the reverse side thereof or
attached thereto.
Section 2.03. Special Provisions for the Issuance of Construction Bonds.
(a) One or more Series of Construction Bonds may be authenticated and delivered upon
original issuance from time to time in such principal amount for each such Series as may be
determined by the City for the purpose of paying or providing for the payment of all or a portion
of the Cost of Construction of a Project. Each such Series shall be in such principal amount
which, when taken together with funds previously used or to be provided by the City for such
Project, will provide the City with sufficient funds to pay the estimated Cost of Construction of
such Project, as set forth in the Written Certificate of the City furnished pursuant to Section
2.03(c).

(2) may provide for the deposit of a specified amount of money from the
proceeds of the sale of such Series of Construction Bonds or from other legally available
sources into a Project Account in the Construction Fund to pay when due (together with
any investment earnings available for such purpose) all or a portion of the interest on
such Series of Construction Bonds accrued and to accrue to the Estimated Completion
Date, plus interest to accrue on such Series of Construction Bonds after the Estimated
-24- Master Trust Indenture
Completion Date for up to one Year (or such different period as may then be permitted by
law).
(c) Each Series of Construction Bonds shall be authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee only upon receipt by the Trustee (in addition to the documents required by Section 2.02)
of a Written Certificate of the City which shall:
(1) set forth the then Estimated Completion Date and the then estimated Cost
of Construction of the Project being financed by such Series of Bonds;
(2) state that, upon the authentication and delivery of the Bonds of such
Series, no event will have occurred which, with the passage of time or the giving of
notice, or both, would give rise to an Event of Default under the Indenture;
(3) set forth, for any Year within the twenty-four (24) calendar months next
preceding the authentication and delivery of such Series of Construction Bonds, the

than 200% of the Maximum Annual Debt Service set forth in (4) above.
(d) In determining the Maximum Annual Debt Service on all Outstanding Bonds, the
City may reduce the Debt Service on any Series of Bonds for any Fiscal Year by (1) the amount

shown in, or calculated on the basis of the information contained in, the applicable audited
financial statements of the City filed with the Trustee as provided in Section 6.06(b), but not
exceeding the Debt Service on such Series of Bonds in any Fiscal Year. If Special Revenues are
to be used in connection with the determination of the Maximum Annual Debt Service, then the
City shall deliver to the Trustee (A) confirmation from each Rating Agency then maintaining a
rating on any Outstanding Bonds that the pledge of Special Revenues will not result in the
reduction or withdrawal of any rating on any Outstanding Bonds, and (B) an Opinion of Counsel
of nationally recognized standing in the field of law relating to municipal bonds to the effect that
such pledge of Special Revenues will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of any Bonds
then Outstanding.
(e) The proceeds, including accrued interest, of the Construction Bonds of each Series
shall be deposited simultaneously with the delivery of such Bonds into the Construction Fund
and, to the extent permitted by law and the provisions of the Indenture, in any other Funds or
Accounts or such other funds or accounts as may be established by the Supplemental Indenture

(f) There may also be deposited from any legally available source, to the extent
permitted by law and the provisions of the Indenture, in the Funds and Accounts or such other
funds or accounts as may be established by the Supplemental Indenture, such amounts, if any, as

following documents or moneys or securities (or if such documents or moneys or securities are
to be delivered to the trustee or debtor for the other borrowings, to such trustee or debtor, with a
copy or other evidence of such delivery to the Trustee):

reasonably necessary to show compliance with the requirements of the
Indenture;

2.03(d); and
(iii) demonstrate that the Revenues set forth in (i) above are
equal to or greater than 200% of the Maximum Annual Debt Service set
forth in (ii) above.

-27- Master Trust Indenture
(d) A Series of Refunding Bonds may be combined with a Series of Construction

Section 2.05. Provisions Regarding Bonds Secured by a Security Instrument.
(a) The City may include such provisions in a Supplemental Indenture authorizing the
issuance of a Series of Bonds secured by a Security Instrument as the City deems appropriate,
including:
(1) So long as the Security Instrument is in full force and effect, and payment
on the Security Instrument is not in default, (A) the Security Instrument Issuer shall be
deemed to be the Holder of the Outstanding Bonds of such Series when the approval,
consent or action of the Bondholders for such Series of Bonds is required or may be
exercised under the Indenture and following an Event of Default and (B) the Indenture
may not be amended in any manner which affects the rights of such Security Instrument
Issuer without its prior written consent.
(2) In the event that the Principal and Redemption Price, if applicable, and
interest due on any Series of Bonds Outstanding shall be paid under the provisions of a
Security Instrument, all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the City to the
Bondholders of such Series of Bonds shall continue to exist and such Security Instrument
Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of such Bondholders in accordance with the terms
of such Security Instrument.
(b) In addition, such Supplemental Indenture may establish such provisions as are
necessary to provide relevant information to the Security Instrument Issuer and to provide a

ARTICLE III
TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF BONDS
Section 3.01. Terms of Bonds.
(a) The Principal and Redemption Price of the Bonds shall be payable in lawful money
of the United States of America at the principal corporate trust operations office of the Trustee,
or at the principal office of any Paying Agent, or otherwise as provided in a Supplemental
Indenture with respect to any Series of Bonds. Unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental
Indenture with respect to a Series of Bonds, payment of interest on any Bond shall be made to
the person who is the registered owner thereof as of the close of business on the Record Date and
shall be paid by check mailed to the registered owner thereof at the address of such registered
owner as it appears on the registration books of the City maintained by the Trustee or at such
other address as is furnished to the Trustee in writing by such registered owner prior to the
Record Date.
-28- Master Trust Indenture
(b) Unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of
Bonds, the Bonds of any Series shall be issued in fully registered form without coupons. Each
Series of Bonds shall be in such denominations as may be authorized by the Supplemental
Indenture authorizing the issuance of the Bonds of such Series. A Supplemental Indenture may
provide for the delivery of a Series of Bonds, issued in the form of a single fully registered Bond,
in installments to be noted by the Trustee in a delivery schedule attached to such Bond.
Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, a Supplemental Indenture may
provide that Bonds issued in such single fully registered form may be submitted to the Trustee
for notation of payment of installments and for notation of transfer, without requiring
cancellation of such single fully registered Bond. Such Supplemental Indenture may provide for
transfer of such Bonds to a new Holder by delivery after such notation, and without cancellation.
(c) The Bonds shall be dated as of the Issue Date specified in the Supplemental
Indenture pursuant to which the Series of Bonds is issued. Unless otherwise provided in a
Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of Bonds, each fully-registered Bond of any Series
shall bear interest from the interest payment date next preceding the date of registration and
authentication thereof unless it is registered as of an interest payment date, in which event it shall
bear interest from the date thereof, or unless it is registered prior to the first interest payment
date, in which event it shall bear interest from its date, or unless, as shown by the records of the
Trustee, interest on the Bonds of such Series shall be in default, in which event it shall bear
interest from the date to which interest has been paid in full.
(d) The Bonds of each Series may contain or have endorsed thereon such provisions,
specifications and descriptive words not inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture as may
be necessary or desirable to comply with the Act, custom, the rules of any securities exchange or
commission or brokerage board, or otherwise, as may be determined by the City prior to the
authentication and delivery thereof.
(e) From and after the issuance of the Bonds of any Series, the findings and
determinations of the Council respecting that Series shall be conclusive evidence of the existence
of the facts so found and determined in any action or proceeding in any court in which the
validity of such Bonds is at issue, and no bona fide purchaser of any such Bonds shall be
required to see to the existence of any fact or to the performance of any condition or to the taking
of any proceeding required prior to such issuance, or to the application of the purchase price paid
for such Bonds. The validity of the issuance of any Series of Bonds shall not be dependent on or
affected in any way by (1) any proceedings taken by the City for the planning, acquisition or
construction of a Project, or (2) any contracts made by the City in connection therewith, or (3)
the failure to complete the planning, acquisition or construction of a Project. The recital
contained in the Bonds that the same are issued pursuant to the Act shall be conclusive evidence
of their validity and of the regularity of their issuance and all the Bonds shall be incontestable
from and after their issuance. Bonds shall be deemed to be issued, within the meaning of the
Indenture, whenever the definitive Bonds, or any temporary Bonds exchangeable therefor, have
been delivered to the purchasers thereof, and the purchase price thereof received, or in the case
of Bonds to be refunded through exchange, whenever such exchange has been made.
-29- Master Trust Indenture
(f) Subject to any limitations contained in a Supplemental Indenture, the City may
provide a Security Instrument for any Series of Bonds (or may substitute one Security Instrument
for another) if the City has provided to the Trustee written evidence satisfactory to the Trustee
from each Rating Agency then having a rating in effect for any Series of Bonds then Outstanding
to the effect that the Rating Agency has reviewed the proposed Security Instrument and that the
use of such Security Instrument (or the substitution of one Security Instrument for another, as
appropriate) will not, by itself result in a reduction or withdrawal of such Rating Agency’s rating
of such Series of Bonds.
Section 3.02. Execution of Bonds; Limited Obligations.
(a) The Bonds shall be signed on behalf of the City by the manual or facsimile
signature of its Mayor and attested and countersigned by the manual or facsimile signature of its
City Recorder, and its seal shall be thereunto affixed by its City Recorder, which may be by a
facsimile of the City’s seal imprinted upon the Bonds. The Bonds shall then be delivered to the
Trustee for manual authentication by it or by any Transfer Agent. In case any officer who shall
have signed or attested any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the Bonds so
signed or attested shall have been authenticated or delivered by the Trustee or by any Transfer
Agent or issued by the City, such Bonds may nevertheless be authenticated, delivered and issued
and, upon such authentication, delivery and issuance, shall be as binding upon the City as though
such person who signed or attested the same had continued to be such officer of the City. Also,
any Bond may be signed, countersigned or attested on behalf of the City by any person who on
the actual date of the execution of such Bond shall be the proper officer of the City, although on
the nominal date of such Bond any such person shall not have been such officer of the City.
(b) Only such of the Bonds as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication,
executed by the Trustee or by any Transfer Agent, shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or
entitled to the benefits of the Indenture, and such certificate of the Trustee or of any Transfer
Agent shall be conclusive evidence that the Bonds so authenticated have been duly authenticated
and delivered under, and are entitled to the benefits of, the Indenture and that the Holder thereof
is entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.
(c) The Bonds, together with interest thereon, and all Repayment Obligations shall be
limited obligations of the City payable solely from the Revenues (except to the extent paid out of
moneys attributable to the Bond proceeds or other funds created hereunder or the income from
the temporary investment thereof) as provided herein. The issuance of the Bonds and delivery of
any Security Instrument Agreement or Reserve Instrument Agreement shall not, directly,
indirectly or contingently, obligate the City or any agency, instrumentality or political
subdivision thereof to levy any form of ad valorem taxation therefore.
(d) The provisions of this Section relating to the execution of Bonds may be changed as
they apply to the Bonds of any Series by the Supplemental Indenture authorizing such Series of
Bonds.
Section 3.03. Transfer of Bonds. Unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture
authorizing a Series of Bonds:
-30- Master Trust Indenture
(a) Any Bond may, in accordance with its terms, be transferred, upon the
books required to be kept pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.06, by the person in
whose name it is registered, in person or by his duly authorized attorney, upon surrender
of such Bond for cancellation or, if applicable, notation of the new Holder together with
the signature of the Trustee or any applicable Transfer Agent on the back of such Bond or
on a form of record attached to such Bond for such purpose, accompanied by delivery of
a written instrument of transfer in a form approved by the Trustee, duly executed. No
transfer will be effective until entered upon the books required to be kept pursuant to the
provisions of Section 3.06.
(b) Whenever any Bond shall be surrendered for transfer, the Trustee or any
Transfer Agent shall authenticate and deliver a new fully registered Bond or Bonds duly
executed by the City or, if applicable, shall deliver the same Bond, duly annotated with
the new Holder and signed by the Trustee or any applicable Transfer Agent on the back
of such Bond or on a form of record attached to such Bond for such purpose, for like
aggregate principal amount. The Trustee or any Transfer Agent shall require the payment
by the Bondholder requesting such transfer of any tax or other governmental charge
required to be paid with respect to such transfer.
(c) The City, the Trustee and any Transfer Agent shall not be required (1) to
issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Bond during a period beginning at the
opening of business 15 days before the date of the mailing of a notice of redemption of
Bonds selected for redemption under Article IV and ending at the close of business on the
day of such mailing, or (2) to register the transfer of or exchange any Bond so selected
for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of Bonds being
redeemed in part.
(d) The City, the Trustee and any Transfer Agent may treat and consider the
person in whose name each Bond is registered upon the books required to be kept
pursuant to Section 3.06 as the Holder and absolute owner of such Bond for the purpose
of payment of Principal of and interest on such Bond and for all other purposes
whatsoever.
Section 3.04. Exchange of Bonds. Fully-registered Bonds may be exchanged at the
principal corporate trust operations office of the Trustee or of any Transfer Agent for a like
aggregate Principal amount of fully-registered Bonds of the same Series and maturity of
authorized denominations. The Trustee or any Transfer Agent shall require the payment by the
Bondholder requesting such exchange of any tax or other governmental charge required to be
paid with respect to such exchange. Except as otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture
authorizing a Series of Bonds, no such exchange shall be required to be made subsequent to the
Record Date.
Section 3.05. Form of Bonds. The Bonds of each Series of Bonds shall be in
substantially the forms thereof set forth in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance
of such Bonds, with such omissions, insertions and variations not inconsistent with the terms
hereof as may be necessary, desirable, authorized and permitted hereby.
-31- Master Trust Indenture
Section 3.06. Bond Registration Books. The Trustee will keep or cause to be kept, at its
principal corporate trust operations office, sufficient books for the registration and transfer of
Bonds, which shall at all times be open to inspection by the City; and, upon presentation for such
purpose, the Trustee shall, under such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, register or
transfer or cause to be registered or transferred, on said books, Bonds as hereinbefore provided.
Section 3.07. Bonds Mutilated, Lost, Destroyed or Stolen. If any Bond shall become
mutilated, the City, at the expense of the Holder of such Bond, shall execute, and the Trustee or
any Transfer Agent shall, at the expense of the Holder of such Bond, thereupon authenticate and
deliver, a new Bond of like tenor in exchange and substitution for the Bond so mutilated, but
only upon surrender to the Trustee or any Transfer Agent of the Bond so mutilated. Every
mutilated Bond so surrendered to the Trustee or to any Transfer Agent shall be cancelled by it
and delivered to, or upon the order of, the City. If any Bond issued hereunder shall be lost,
destroyed or stolen, evidence of such loss, destruction or theft may be submitted to the City and
the Trustee and, if such evidence be satisfactory to both and indemnity as required by the Act or
State law and satisfactory to the Trustee shall be given, the City, at the expense of the Holder of
such Bond, shall execute, and the Trustee shall, at the expense of the Holder of such Bond,
thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor in lieu of and in substitution for the
Bond so lost, destroyed or stolen (or if any such Bond shall have matured or shall be about to
mature, instead of issuing a substitute Bond the Trustee may pay the same without surrender
thereof). Any Bond issued under the provisions of this Section in lieu of any Bond alleged to be
lost, destroyed or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the City, and shall
be equally and proportionately entitled to the benefits of the Indenture with all other Bonds of the
same Series secured by the Indenture. Neither the City nor the Trustee shall be required to treat
both the original Bond and any duplicate Bond as being Outstanding for the purpose of
determining the Principal amount of Bonds which may be issued hereunder or for the purpose of
determining any percentage of Bonds Outstanding hereunder, but both the original and duplicate
Bond shall be treated as one and the same.
ARTICLE IV
REDEMPTION OF BONDS
Section 4.01. Privilege of Redemption of Bonds. Any Series of Bonds subject to
redemption prior to maturity pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture shall be redeemable, upon
notice being given, at such times, at such Redemption Prices and upon such terms as provided in
this Article and (in addition to and consistent with the terms contained in this Article) in the
Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of the Bonds of such Series.
Section 4.02. Selection of Bonds for Redemption. Except as otherwise provided in a
Supplemental Indenture:
(a) If less than all of the Bonds of any Series are called for redemption and if
the Bonds of such Series shall mature on more than one date, the Bonds of such Series
shall be redeemed from the Outstanding Bonds of such Series in inverse order of
maturities.
-32- Master Trust Indenture
(b) If less than all of the Bonds of any Series maturing on any single date are
called for redemption, the Trustee shall select the Bonds to be redeemed, from the
Outstanding Bonds of such Series maturing on that date not previously called for
redemption, in such manner as in the Trustee’s sole discretion it shall deem appropriate
and fair; provided, however, that subject to other applicable provisions of the Indenture or
of any Supplemental Indenture, the portion of any Bond to be redeemed shall be in a
Principal amount equal to a denomination in which Bonds of such Series are authorized
to be issued. In selecting Bonds for redemption the Trustee shall treat each Bond as
representing the number of Bonds which is obtained by dividing the Principal amount of
each Bond by the minimum denomination in which such Series of Bonds is authorized to
be issued. If part but not all of a Bond shall be selected for redemption, the Holder
thereof or his attorney or legal representative shall present and surrender such Bond to the
Trustee for payment of the Principal amount thereof so called for redemption and the
redemption premium, if any, on such Principal amount. The City shall execute and the
Trustee or any Transfer Agent shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the order of such
Holder or his legal representative, without charge therefor, a Bond or Bonds of the same
maturity and bearing interest at the same rate as the Bond so surrendered for the
unredeemed portion of the surrendered Bond. The Trustee shall promptly notify the City
in writing of the Bonds or portions thereof selected for redemption.
Section 4.03. Notice of Redemption. Except as otherwise provided in a Supplemental
Indenture authorizing a Series of Bonds:
(a) Notice of redemption shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid,
not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, to the registered
owner of such Bond, at his address as it appears on the bond registration books of the
Trustee or at such address as he may have filed with the Trustee for that purpose, but
neither failure to mail any such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed shall affect
the sufficiency of the proceedings for the redemption of any of the Bonds. Each notice of
redemption shall state the redemption date, the place of redemption, the source of the
funds to be used for such redemption, the Principal amount and, if less than all of the
Bonds of any like Series and maturity are to be redeemed, the distinctive numbers of the
Bonds to be redeemed, and shall also state that the interest on the Bonds or portions
thereof in such notice designated for redemption shall cease to accrue from and after such
redemption date and that on said date there will become due and payable on each of said
Bonds the Redemption Price thereof and interest accrued thereon to the redemption date.
(b) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Trustee for and on behalf and
at the expense of the City, at the Written Request of the City given to the Trustee at least
60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. The City shall deposit with, or otherwise
make available to, the Trustee the money required for payment of the Redemption Price
of and the accrued interest to the redemption date on all Bonds then to be called for
redemption at least two Business Days before the date fixed for such redemption.
(c) If at the time of mailing of notice of redemption there shall not have been
deposited with the Trustee moneys sufficient to redeem all Bonds called for redemption,
-33- Master Trust Indenture
such notice may state that it is conditional upon the deposit of moneys sufficient to
redeem all Bonds with the Trustee not later than the redemption date, and such notice
shall be of no effect unless such moneys are so deposited. If the notice contains such
condition and if moneys sufficient to redeem all Bonds called for redemption have not
been deposited with the Trustee by the redemption date, the notice of redemption shall be
rescinded, none of the Bonds described in such notice shall be redeemed, the Redemption
Price shall not be due and payable under the Indenture, and the Trustee shall, as soon as
possible after the redemption date, give notice for and on behalf and at the expense of the
City, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered owners of the Bonds called for
redemption of the rescission of such notice of redemption.
Section 4.04. Partial Redemption of Bonds; Disposition of Redeemed Bonds. Except as
otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of Bonds:
(a) Upon surrender of any Bond redeemed in part only, the City shall duly
execute and the Trustee or any Transfer Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the
registered owner thereof, at the expense of the City, a new Bond or Bonds of the same
Series and maturity and of authorized denominations equal in aggregate Principal amount
to the unredeemed portion of the Bond surrendered.
(b) All Bonds redeemed in whole or in part pursuant to the provisions of this
Article shall be cancelled by the Trustee or any Transfer Agent and shall thereafter be
delivered to, or upon the order of, the City.
Section 4.05. Effect of Redemption. Except as otherwise provided in a Supplemental
Indenture authorizing a Series of Bonds, if notice of redemption has been duly given as
aforesaid, and moneys for payment of the Redemption Price, together with interest to the
redemption date on the Bonds so called for redemption, are held by the Trustee, then such Bonds
shall, on the redemption date designated in such notice, become due and payable at the
Redemption Price specified in such notice and interest accrued thereon to the redemption date;
and from and after the date so designated interest on the Bonds so called for redemption shall
cease to accrue.

Trustee shall, during the period for which such interest was capitalized, transfer from such
Project Account, to the appropriate Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account, the amounts
required to pay interest on the Bonds when due, subject to any limitations contained in the
Supplemental Indenture authorizing such Bonds.
(d) Before any payment is made from any Project Account by the Trustee (except for
transfers into Series Subaccounts in the Bond Service Account to pay interest on the Bonds as
contemplated in (c) above), the City shall file with the Trustee a Written Request of the City,
showing with respect to each payment to be made, the name of the person to whom payment is
due and the amount to be paid with payment instructions, and stating that the obligation to be
paid was incurred and is a proper charge against the Project Account. Each such Written
Request shall be sufficient evidence to the Trustee that obligations in the stated amounts have
been incurred by the City and that each item thereof is a proper charge against the applicable
Project Account.
(e) Upon receipt of each such Written Request, the Trustee shall pay the amounts set
forth therein as directed by the terms thereof.
(f) The City shall maintain on file with the Trustee a schedule of dates on which the
City estimates that money in each Project Account will be expended and the amounts estimated
to be required on those dates. The City may revise such schedule at any time to reflect changes
in the estimated dates and amounts. Amounts in the Construction Fund shall be invested and
reinvested by the Trustee, in accordance with instructions received from an Authorized Officer
of the City, to the fullest extent practicable in Investment Securities (or, to the extent permitted
by a Supplemental Indenture executed and delivered pursuant to Section 10.02(a)(3), in other
investments) maturing in such amounts and at such times as may be necessary to make funds
available when needed. The Trustee may, and to the extent required for payments from the
Construction Fund shall, sell any such Investment Securities at any time, and the proceeds of
such sale, and of all payments at maturity and upon redemption of such investments, shall be
held in the applicable Project Account in the Construction Fund.
(g) Unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of
Construction Bonds, all net income earned on any moneys or investments in the Project Account
established in the Construction Fund for a Project shall be held in such Project Account and
applied to pay the Costs of Construction.
(h) The substantial completion of construction of each Project shall be evidenced by a
Written Certificate of the City, which shall be filed with the Trustee. Upon the filing of such
Certificate, the balance in the Project Account in the Construction Fund in excess of the amount,
if any, stated in such Certificate shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law and
covenants, including any covenants contained in any Tax Certificate, regarding the use of
proceeds of the Bonds, and as directed in such Written Certificate or in a Supplemental
Indenture, be (i) used to purchase Bonds as provided in Section 5.09, (ii) deposited into the Debt
-36- Master Trust Indenture
Service Reserve Account to fund any amounts required to be deposited therein, (iii) deposited
into the Bond Service Account, (iv) transferred into another Project Account to pay Costs of
Construction of a Project or (v) used for any other purpose for which proceeds of Bonds may be
used under applicable law and covenants regarding the use of proceeds of Bonds. If subsequent
to the filing of such Certificate, a supplemental Written Certificate of the City is filed with the
Trustee stating that the balance of the money remaining in the Construction Fund is no longer
needed to pay Costs of Construction of such Project, any remaining balance in the Project
Account in the Construction Fund shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law and
covenants, including any covenants contained in any Tax Certificate, regarding the use of
proceeds of the Bonds and as directed in such supplemental Written Certificate or in a
Supplemental Indenture, be (i) used to purchase Bonds as provided in Section 5.09, (ii) deposited
into the Debt Service Reserve Account to fund any amounts required to be deposited therein, (iii)
deposited into the Bond Service Account, (iv) transferred into another Project Account to pay
Costs of Construction of a Project or (v) used for any other purpose for which proceeds of Bonds
may be used under applicable law and covenants regarding the use of proceeds of Bonds.
Section 5.05. Revenues; Revenue Fund.
(a) All Revenues shall be promptly deposited by the City to the credit of the Revenue
Fund. There shall also be deposited into the Revenue Fund all amounts required to be so
deposited by the Indenture, including, but not limited to, Section 10.02.
(b) Following the deposits required by Section 5.06(a), there shall be retained in the
Revenue Fund, to the extent such amounts are not otherwise required to be transferred from the
Revenue Fund pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.06, the amount estimated to be required
for deposit into the Principal and Interest Fund in the next succeeding month; provided, however,
for purposes of calculating the interest payable for the next succeeding month for any Series of
Variable Rate Bonds or Repayment Obligations bearing interest at a variable rate that cannot be
ascertained for any such month, it shall be assumed that such Series of Variable Rate Bonds or
Repayment Obligations will bear interest at the greater of (i) the maximum interest rate permitted
under the applicable Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of such Series of Variable
Rate Bonds, (ii) the maximum interest rate permitted under any Reserve Instrument Agreement
then in effect with respect to such Series of Variable Rate Bonds, or (iii) the maximum interest
rate permitted under any Security Instrument Agreement then in effect with respect to such
Series of Variable Rate Bonds, as applicable.
Section 5.06. Flow of Funds.
(a) On or before the last Business Day prior to the end of each month the City shall
transfer from the Revenue Fund, to the extent of moneys available therein, and deposit, in the
following order:
(1) into the following Funds and Accounts, the amounts set forth below:
(A) Into the Principal and Interest Fund:
-37- Master Trust Indenture
(i) for credit to the Bond Service Account, the amount, if any,
required so that the balance in each of the Series Subaccounts in the Bond
Service Account shall equal the Accrued Debt Service on the Series of
Bonds and, to the extent that the Supplemental Indenture creating such
Series Subaccount authorizes the use of a Security Instrument, on any
Security Instrument Repayment Obligations for which such Series
Subaccount was established; provided that if there are not sufficient
moneys to satisfy the requirements of this subsection (i) with respect to all
Series Subaccounts in the Bond Service Account, all moneys available for
distribution among such Series Subaccounts shall be deposited into the
Bond Service Account and distributed on a pro rata basis to the deficient
Series Subaccounts in the Bond Service Account, such distribution to be
determined by multiplying the amount available for distribution by the
proportion that the deficiency for each Series Subaccount bears to the total
deficiency for all Series Subaccounts; and provided further, that in the
event and to the extent moneys have been deposited in any Project
Account to provide for the payment of capitalized interest, such moneys
shall be transferred from the appropriate Project Account and deposited
into the appropriate Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account in an
amount sufficient to cause the balance in such Series Subaccount to equal
the interest component of Accrued Debt Service on the Series of Bonds;
and
(ii) for credit to the Debt Service Reserve Account, without
priority or preference as between subsections (A) or (B):
(A) if, after the issuance of a Series of Bonds, an
amount equal to the Debt Service Reserve Requirement is not on
deposit in the Series Subaccount established in the Debt Service
Reserve Account for such Series of Bonds because sufficient
moneys for that purpose were not required by a Supplemental
Indenture to be deposited into the Debt Service Reserve Account
pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.02(a)(10), such amount as
shall be required by the Supplemental Indenture authorizing such
Series of Bonds, in not to exceed sixty (60) approximately equal
monthly installments commencing no later than the Business Day
immediately preceding the first Interest Payment Date of such
Series of Bonds, computed as of the contemplated date of issuance
of such Series of Bonds, necessary to cause the balance in such
Series Subaccount to equal the Debt Service Reserve Requirement;
and
(B) if moneys shall ever have been paid out of any
Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve Account for the
purpose specified in Section 5.08(b) or if for any other reason
moneys in any Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve
-38- Master Trust Indenture
Account shall have been removed and in either case if such
moneys shall not have been replaced from any source, such
amount as shall be necessary to cause either the amount so paid out
of or removed from such Series Subaccount in the Debt Service
Reserve Account to be replaced, or the amount to be on deposit in
such Series Subaccount to be equal to the Debt Service Reserve
Requirement attributable to the corresponding Series of Bonds,
whichever is less;
provided that if there are not sufficient moneys in the Revenue Fund to
satisfy the requirements of this subsection (ii), all moneys available for
distribution among the Series Subaccounts in the Debt Service Reserve
Account shall be deposited into the Debt Service Reserve Account and
distributed pro rata based on the amount of the deficiencies to the deficient
Series Subaccounts in the Debt Service Reserve Account.
provided, however, that so long as there shall be held in the Principal and Interest Fund,
excluding any Reserve Instrument Coverage, an amount sufficient to pay in full all Outstanding
Bonds and all outstanding Repayment Obligations in accordance with their terms (including
Principal or applicable sinking fund Redemption Price and interest thereon), no deposits shall be
required to be made into the Principal and Interest Fund.
(b) Amounts remaining in the Revenue Fund at the end of each month after payment of
the amounts required by subsection (a) of this Section may be applied by the City, free and clear
of the lien of the Indenture, to any one or more of the following, to the extent permitted by law:
(1) the purchase or redemption of any Bonds and payment of expenses in connection therewith;
(2) payments of Principal or redemption price of and interest on any bonds, including general
obligation or junior lien revenue bonds of the City; (3) payments into any Project Account or
Accounts established in the Construction Fund for application to the purposes of such Accounts;
and (4) any other lawful purpose of the City.
(c) Upon any purchase or redemption, pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section, of
Bonds of any Series and maturity for which Sinking Fund Installments shall have been
established, the principal amount of such Bonds shall be credited toward such Sinking Fund
Installments as directed in a Written Certificate or Request of the City, unless the City shall elect
to have the Sinking Fund Installments next due credited as provided in Section 5.07(c).
-39- Master Trust Indenture
Section 5.07. Principal and Interest Fund - Bond Service Account.
(a) Each Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of a Series of Bonds shall
establish a separate Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account for each such Series of
Bonds issued; provided, however, that such a separate Series Subaccount need not be established
in the Principal and Interest Fund for a Series of Bonds if such Series of Bonds is secured by a
Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve Account that also secures one or more other
Series of Bonds as contemplated by Section 5.08(a) (in which case the Supplemental Indenture
may provide for the payment of principal and interest on such Series of Bonds from the same
Series Subaccount in the Principal and Interest Fund as the principal and interest on such other
Series of Bonds are payable from). There shall be deposited into each Series Subaccount the
amounts required to be so deposited pursuant to Section 5.06(a)(1)(A)(i). Any payments made
by a Security Instrument Issuer with respect to a Series of Bonds shall be deposited into the
Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account relating to such Series of Bonds, subject to the
provisions of the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of such Series of Bonds.
(b) The Trustee shall pay out of the appropriate Series Subaccount in the Bond Service
Account to the respective Paying Agent (1) on or before each interest payment date for each
Series of Bonds, the amount required for the interest payable on such date; (2) on or before each
Principal Installment due date, the amount required for the Principal Installment payable on such
due date; and (3) on or before any redemption date for each Series of Bonds, the amount required
for the payment of Redemption Price of and accrued interest on such Bonds then to be redeemed.
Such amounts shall be applied by the Paying Agents to pay Principal Installments and
Redemption Price of, and interest on the related Series of Bonds. The Trustee shall pay out of
the appropriate Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account to the Security Instrument Issuer,
if any, that has issued a Security Instrument with respect to such Series of Bonds an amount
equal to any Security Instrument Repayment Obligation then due and payable to such Security
Instrument Issuer. If payment is so made on Pledged Bonds held for the benefit of the Security
Instrument Issuer, a corresponding payment on the Security Instrument Repayment Obligation
shall be deemed to have been made (without requiring an additional payment by the City) and
the Trustee shall keep its records accordingly.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of
Bonds, amounts accumulated in any Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account with respect
to any Sinking Fund Installment (together with amounts accumulated therein with respect to
interest on the Bonds for which such Sinking Fund Installment was established) shall, if so
directed by the City in a Written Request not less than 30 days before the due date of such
Sinking Fund Installment, be applied by the Trustee to (1) the purchase of Bonds of the Series
and maturity for which such Sinking Fund Installment was established, (2) the redemption at the
applicable sinking fund Redemption Price of such Bonds, if then redeemable by their terms, or
(3) any combination of (1) and (2). The applicable sinking fund Redemption Price (or Principal
amount of maturing Bonds) of any Bonds so purchased or redeemed shall be deemed to
constitute part of the Bond Service Account until such Sinking Fund Installment date for the
purpose of calculating the amount of such Account. As soon as practicable after the 60th day
preceding the due date of any such Sinking Fund Installment, the Trustee shall proceed to call for
redemption on such due date, by giving notice as required by the Indenture, Bonds of the Series
-40- Master Trust Indenture
and maturity for which such Sinking Fund Installment was established (except in the case of
Bonds maturing on a Sinking Fund Installment date) in such amount as shall be necessary to
complete the retirement of the unsatisfied balance of such Sinking Fund Installment. The
Trustee shall pay out of the appropriate Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account to the
appropriate Paying Agents, on or before such redemption date (or maturity date), the amount
required for the redemption of the Bonds so called for redemption (or for the payment of such
Bonds then maturing), and such amount shall be applied by such Paying Agents to such
redemption (or payment).
Section 5.08. Principal and Interest Fund - Debt Service Reserve Account.
(a) Each Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of a Series of Bonds shall
establish in the Debt Service Reserve Account a separate Series Subaccount for each such Series
of Bonds issued provided, however, that such a separate Series Subaccount need not be
established in the Principal and Interest Fund for a Series of Bonds if such Series of Bonds is
secured by a Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve Account that also serves one or
more other Series of Bonds. Such Supplemental Indenture shall also specify the Debt Service
Reserve Requirement to be on deposit in such Series Subaccount.
(b) If on the third Business Day prior to the end of any month, after the deposit of
moneys required by Section 5.06(a)(1)(A)(i), the amount in any Series Subaccount in the Bond
Service Account shall be less than the amount required to be in such Series Subaccount, the
Trustee shall (1) apply amounts from the corresponding Series Subaccount, if any, in the Debt
Service Reserve Account to the extent necessary to make good the deficiency; and (2) to the
extent that moneys and investments available in the corresponding Series Subaccount, if any, in
the Debt Service Reserve Account are not sufficient to eliminate the deficiency in the Series
Subaccount in the Bond Service Account and Reserve Instruments are in effect for the
corresponding Series of Bonds, immediately make a demand for payment on all such Reserve
Instruments, to the maximum extent authorized by such Reserve Instruments, in the amount
necessary to make up such deficiency, and immediately deposit such payment upon receipt
thereof in the appropriate Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account.
(c) Whenever the moneys on deposit in a Series Subaccount in the Debt Service
Reserve Account, including investment earnings and Reserve Instrument Coverage with respect
thereto, shall exceed the Debt Service Reserve Requirement for such Series Subaccount, such
excess shall be transferred by the Trustee to the corresponding Series Subaccount in the Bond
Service Account and shall be used to pay Debt Service on the related Bonds, subject to any
limitations contained in the Tax Certificate relating to such Bonds.
(d) Whenever the amount in a Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve Account,
excluding any Reserve Instrument Coverage, together with the amount in the corresponding
Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account for a Series of Bonds, is sufficient to pay in full
all Outstanding Bonds of such Series and related Repayment Obligations in accordance with
their terms (including Principal or applicable sinking fund Redemption Price and interest
thereon), the funds on deposit in such Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve Account
shall be transferred to the corresponding Series Subaccount in the Bond Service Account and no
-41- Master Trust Indenture
deposits shall be required to be made into such Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve
Account.
(e) Unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of
Bonds, in calculating the amount on deposit in a Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve
Account, the amount of the Reserve Instrument Coverage for the corresponding Series of Bonds
will be treated as an amount on deposit in such Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve
Account. The City may deposit a Reserve Instrument into any Series Subaccount in the Debt
Service Reserve Account to satisfy all or a portion of the Debt Service Reserve Requirement
with respect to the Series of Bonds for which such Series Subaccount was established and upon
such deposit may withdraw any moneys in such Series Subaccount in excess of such Debt
Service Reserve Requirement.
(f) Unless otherwise specified in the Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of
Bonds, no Reserve Instrument for such Series of Bonds shall be allowed to expire unless and
until cash has been deposited into the appropriate Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve
Account, or a new Reserve Instrument has been issued in place of the expiring Reserve
Instrument, in an amount or to provide coverage at least equal to the Debt Service Reserve
Requirement for the corresponding Series of Bonds.
Section 5.09. Purchase of Bonds. The City may, to the extent permitted under applicable
law and covenants, including any covenants contained in any Tax Certificate, purchase Bonds of
any Series from any available funds at public or private sale, as and when and at such prices as
the City may in its discretion determine. All Bonds so purchased shall at such times as shall be
selected by the City be delivered to and cancelled by the Trustee or any Registrar and shall
thereafter be delivered to, or upon the order of, the City, and no Bonds shall be issued in place
thereof. In the case of the purchase of Bonds of a Series and maturity for which Sinking Fund
Installments shall have been established, the City shall, by a Written Request of the City
delivered to the Trustee, elect the manner in which the Principal amount of such Bonds shall be
credited toward Sinking Fund Installments, consistent with the procedures of Section 5.07(c).

specifically set forth in the Indenture. The duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be
determined solely by the express provisions of the Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be
liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set
forth in the Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into the
Indenture against the Trustee.
(b) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform
any of its duties by or through attorneys, agents, receivers or employees but shall not be
answerable for the conduct of any of the same who have been selected by it with ordinary
care in accordance with the standard specified above, and shall be entitled to advice of
counsel concerning all matters of trusts hereof and the duties hereunder, and may in all
cases pay such reasonable compensation to all such attorneys, agents, receivers and
employees as may reasonably be employed in connection with the trusts hereof. The
Trustee may act upon the opinion or advice of any attorney for the City or any other
attorneys, if, in the case of such other attorneys, they are approved by the Trustee in the
exercise of reasonable care. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any loss or damage
resulting from any action or non-action in good faith in reliance upon such opinion or
advice. The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by
-47- Master Trust Indenture
any of its officers or employees unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in
ascertaining pertinent facts.

(except in respect to the certificate of authentication of the Trustee endorsed on the
Bonds), or for the sufficiency of the security for the Bonds issued hereunder or intended
to be secured hereby, and the Trustee shall not be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the
performance or observance of any covenants, conditions or agreements on the part of the

Indenture.
(d) The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use of any Bonds
authenticated or delivered hereunder. The Trustee may become the owner or pledgee of
Bonds secured hereby with the same rights which it would have if not Trustee. To the
extent permitted by law, the Trustee may also receive tenders and purchase in good faith
Bonds from itself, including any department, affiliate or subsidiary, with like effect as if
it were not Trustee.
(e) The Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any notice, request, consent,
certificate, order, affidavit, letter, telegram or other paper or document believed by it to
be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons.
Any action taken by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, upon the request or authority
or consent of any person who at the time of making such request or giving such authority
or consent is the owner of any Bond, shall be conclusive and binding upon all future
owners of the same Bond and upon Bonds issued in exchange therefor or in place thereof.
The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by
it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority
in Principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding relating to the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under the Indenture.
(f) As to the existence or non-existence of any fact or as to the sufficiency or
validity of any instrument, paper or proceeding, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon
a Written Certificate of the City as sufficient evidence of the facts therein contained and
shall also be at liberty to accept a similar Written Certificate to the effect that any
particular dealing, transaction or action is necessary or expedient, but may at its
discretion secure such further evidence deemed necessary or advisable, but shall in no
case be bound to secure the same. The Trustee may accept a certificate of the City
Recorder to the effect that a resolution in the form therein set forth has been adopted by
the City as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted, and is in full
force and effect.
-48- Master Trust Indenture

Indenture shall not be construed as a duty and it shall not be answerable for other than its
gross negligence or willful default.
(h) The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have
notice of any default hereunder except:
(1) Failure by the City to cause to be made any of the payments to the
Trustee required to be made pursuant to Article V;
(2) Failure of the City to file with the Trustee any document required
by the Indenture to be so filed prior to or subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds;
or
(3) Any default with respect to a Security Instrument Agreement or a

the Trustee in writing;
provided that the Trustee shall be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of
any default hereunder if specifically notified in writing of such default by the Holders of
not less than 10% in aggregate Principal amount of Bonds then Outstanding, by any
Security Instrument Issuer or by any Reserve Instrument Issuer, and all notices or other
instruments required by the Indenture to be delivered to the Trustee must, in order to be
effective, be delivered at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee and in the
absence of such notice, the Trustee may conclusively assume there is no default except as
aforesaid;
(i) At any and all reasonable times the Trustee, and its duly authorized agents,
attorneys, experts, engineers, accountants and representatives, shall have the right fully to
inspect any and all books, papers and records of the City pertaining to the Revenues and
the Bonds, and to take such memoranda from and in regard thereto as may be desired.
(j) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of
the execution of the said trusts and powers or otherwise in respect of the premises.
(k) Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in the Indenture contained, the
Trustee shall have the right, but shall not be required, to demand, in respect of the
authentication of any Bonds or any action whatsoever within the purview of the
Indenture, any showings, certificates, opinions, appraisals or other information, or
corporate action or evidence thereof, in addition to that by the terms hereof required, as a
condition of such action by the Trustee reasonably deemed desirable by it for the purpose
of establishing the right of the City to the authentication of any Bonds or the taking of
any other action by the Trustee.
(l) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or
powers vested in it by the Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the

Reserve Instrument Issuers shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or
indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred therein or
thereby.
(m) All moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied or invested
as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but

matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,

requested in writing to do so by (i) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
Principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, (ii) any Security Instrument Issuer of a
Security Instrument then in full force and effect and not in default on a payment
obligation or (iii) any Reserve Instrument Issuer of a Reserve Instrument then in full
force and effect and not in default on a payment obligation; provided, that, if the payment
within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be
incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not
reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of the
Indenture, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expenses or
liabilities as a condition to so proceeding. The reasonable expense of every such inquiry
or examination shall be paid by the City or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the
City.
(o) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and
reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion, rights or powers
conferred upon it by the Indenture.
(p) None of the provisions contained in the Indenture shall require the Trustee
to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is
reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not
reasonably assured to it.
(q) The Trustee shall not be obligated to take or omit to take any action
hereunder if, upon the basis of advice of counsel selected by it, the Trustee determines it
would be unlawful to take or omit to take such action.

statement or recital in any offering memorandum or other disclosure material prepared or
distributed with respect to any Series of Bonds.
-50- Master Trust Indenture
(s) The Trustee shall not be liable for actions taken at the direction of
Bondholders or Security Instrument Issuer pursuant to the provisions of Article IX.
Section 7.04. Intervention by the Trustee. In any judicial proceeding to which the City is
a party and which in the opinion of the Trustee has a substantial bearing on the interests of
Holders of the Bonds, the Trustee may intervene on behalf of Bondholders and shall do so if
requested in writing by (i) the Holders of a majority of the aggregate Principal amount of Bonds
then Outstanding or (ii) any Security Instrument Issuer of a Security Instrument then in full force
and effect and not in default on a payment obligation. The rights and obligations of the Trustee
under this Section are subject to the approval of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 7.05. Successor Trustee. Any corporation or association into which the Trustee
may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or
transfer its corporate trust business or assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any
corporation or association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or
transfer to which it is a party, shall be and become a successor Trustee hereunder and vested with
all the trusts, powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and all other matters as was its
predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or
conveyance on the part of the Trustee or the City, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Section 7.06. Concerning Any Successor Trustee. Every successor Trustee appointed
hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its or his predecessor and also to the City a
Supplemental Indenture accepting such appointment hereunder and thereupon such successor,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the estates,
properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its predecessor; but such predecessor
shall, nevertheless, on the Written Request of the City, or of its successor, execute and deliver an
instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the estates, properties, rights, powers and
trusts of such predecessor hereunder; and every predecessor Trustee shall deliver all securities
and moneys held by it as Trustee hereunder to its or his successor. Should any instrument in
writing from the City be required by any successor Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting
in such successor the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations hereby
vested or intended to be vested in the predecessor, any and all such instruments in writing shall,
on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the City. Any Trustee ceasing to act
shall, nevertheless, retain a lien upon all property or funds held or collected by such Trustee to
secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.07 hereof.
Section 7.07. Compensation of the Trustee and Its Lien. The City covenants and agrees
to pay to the Trustee from time to time and the Trustee shall be entitled to, reasonable
compensation and, except as otherwise expressly provided, the City covenants and agrees to pay
or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of the
Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its
counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ including but not limited to any Paying
Agent, Transfer Agent or Depository) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may
arise from its negligence or bad faith. The City also covenants to indemnify the Trustee for, and
-51- Master Trust Indenture
to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith
on the part of the Trustee, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of
this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability in the
premises. The obligations of the City under this Section to compensate and indemnify the
Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall
constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of
the Indenture. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Bonds
upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust
for the benefit of the Holders of particular Bonds.
Section 7.08. Appointment of Co-Trustee. It is the purpose of this Indenture that there
shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction (including particularly the law of the State)
denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as
Trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under the Indenture, and in
particular in case of the enforcement thereof on default, or in the case the Trustee deems that by
reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers,
rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein
granted, or take any action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may
be necessary that the Trustee appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-
trustee. The following provisions of this Section are adapted to these ends.
In the event that the Trustee appoints an additional individual or institution as a separate
or co-trustee, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity,
estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by the Indenture to be exercised by or vested
in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such
separate or co-trustee but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate or co-trustee to
exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant and obligation necessary to the
exercise thereof by such separate or co-trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.
Should any instrument in writing from the City be required by the separate trustee or co-
trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him
or it such estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such
instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the City.
In case any separate trustee or co-trustee, or a successor to either of them shall die, become
incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties
and obligations of such separate trustee or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and
be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment of a new trustee or successor to such separate
trustee or co-trustee.
Section 7.09. Appointment, Duties and Term of Remarketing Agent. The City may
pursuant to a Supplemental Indenture appoint one or more Remarketing Agents from time to
time to purchase or remarket Put Bonds.
Section 7.10. Appointment, Duties and Term of Additional Transfer Agents. The City
may appoint one or more Transfer Agents from time to time in addition to the Trustee to transfer
and authenticate Bonds. Each appointment of a Transfer Agent other than the Trustee shall be
-52- Master Trust Indenture
made by a Supplemental Indenture which shall, among other things, specify the duties,
qualifications and term of such Transfer Agent and the conditions under which such Transfer
Agent may resign, be removed or be replaced. Each Transfer Agent other than the Trustee shall
signify its acceptance of the duties imposed upon it pursuant to the Indenture by depositing with
the City and the Trustee a written acceptance of such duties, together with a certificate stating
that the Transfer Agent is duly qualified to perform such duties under the terms of the Indenture
and under all applicable local, state and federal laws.

shall have consented in writing to such modification, alteration, amendment or
supplement; provided further that in determining whether any such modification,
alteration, amendment or supplement is materially adverse to the Holders of the Bonds,

Indenture providing for the issuance by a Security Instrument Issuer of a Security Instrument in
connection with a Series of Bonds issued under the Indenture may provide, among other
provisions, that the Security Instrument Issuer shall at all times, so long as the Series of Bonds
remains Outstanding, be deemed to be the exclusive owner of all of the Bonds of such Series for
the purpose of consenting to the execution and delivery of a Supplemental Indenture pursuant to
the provisions of Section 8.01(a).
Section 8.02. Bondholders’ Meetings.
(a) The Trustee may, and upon the Written Request of the City shall, at any time, call a
meeting of the Holders of Bonds, to be held at such place as may be selected by the Trustee and
specified in the notice calling such meeting. Written notice of such meeting, stating the time and

-56- Master Trust Indenture
(b) Prior to calling any meeting of the Holders of Bonds, the Trustee shall adopt
regulations for the holding and conduct of such meeting, and copies of such regulations shall be
filed at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee and at the office of the City and shall be
open to the inspection of all Bondholders. The regulations shall include such provisions as the

proxy, for the selection of temporary and permanent officers to conduct the meeting and
inspectors to tabulate and canvass the votes cast thereat, the adjournment of any meeting and the
records to be kept of the proceedings of such meeting, including rules of order for the conduct of
such meeting and such other regulations as, in the opinion of the Trustee, may be necessary or
desirable.
(c) No resolution adopted by such meeting of Bondholders shall be binding unless and
until a valid Supplemental Indenture has been executed and delivered containing the
modifications or amendments authorized by the resolution adopted at such meeting. Such
Supplemental Indenture shall become effective upon the filing with the Trustee of the resolution
adopted at such meeting and such Supplemental Indenture.
Section 8.03. Amendment by Written Consent. The City may at any time execute and
deliver a valid Supplemental Indenture amending the provisions of the Bonds or of the Indenture
or any Supplemental Indenture, to the extent that such an amendment is permitted by this Article,
to become effective when and as approved by written consent of the Bondholders, and any
necessary Security Instrument Issuers and Reserve Instrument Issuers, and as provided in this
Section. Such Supplemental Indenture shall not be effective unless there shall have been filed
with the City or the Trustee the written consents of the necessary number of Holders of the
Bonds then Outstanding and the consents of any necessary Security Instrument Issuers and
Reserve Instrument Issuers, and a notice shall have been published as hereinafter in this Section
provided. It shall not be necessary for any consent under this Section to approve the particular
form of any proposed Supplemental Indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall
approve the substance thereof. Each consent of a Bondholder shall be effective only if
accompanied by proof of ownership of the Bonds for which such consent is given, which proof
shall be such as is permitted by Section 12.04. Any such consent shall be binding upon the
Holder of the Bonds giving such consent and on any subsequent Holder thereof (whether or not
such subsequent Holder has notice thereof) unless such consent is revoked in writing by the
Holder of the Bonds giving such consent or a subsequent Holder thereof by filing such
revocation with the City and the Trustee prior to the date when the notice hereinafter in this
Section provided for has been mailed. Notice of the execution and delivery of such
Supplemental Indenture shall be mailed by the City to Bondholders (but failure to mail copies of
such notice shall not affect the validity of the Supplemental Indenture when assented to by the
requisite percentage of the Holders of the Bonds as aforesaid) and to each Security Instrument
Issuer and Reserve Instrument Issuer of a Security Instrument or a Reserve Instrument as the
case may be, then in full force and effect and not in default in a payment obligation.
Section 8.04. Disqualified Bonds. Bonds owned or held by or for the account of the City
shall not be deemed Outstanding for the purpose of any vote, consent or other action or any
calculation of Outstanding Bonds in this Article provided for, and neither the City nor any owner
or Holder of such Bonds shall be entitled to vote or consent to, or to take, any other action
-57- Master Trust Indenture
provided for in this Article. Any Pledged Bonds shall be deemed Outstanding and, for the
purposes of any vote, shall be considered to be owned by the appropriate Security Instrument
Issuer.
Section 8.05. Effect of Modification or Amendment. When any Supplemental Indenture
modifying or amending the provisions of the Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture shall
become effective, as provided in this Article, the Indenture or such Supplemental Indenture shall
be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights,
duties and obligations under the Indenture or such Supplemental Indenture of the City, the
Trustee, any Security Instrument Issuer, any Reserve Instrument Issuer, and all Holders of Bonds
Outstanding hereunder shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject
in all respects to such modification and amendment, and all the terms and conditions of any such
Supplemental Indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of the
Indenture or the modified or amended Supplemental Indenture for any and all purposes.
Section 8.06. Endorsement or Replacement of Bonds Issued After Amendments. The
City or the Trustee may determine that Bonds executed and delivered after the effective date of a
Supplemental Indenture executed and delivered as provided in this Article shall bear a notation,
by endorsement or otherwise, in form approved by the City, as to the modification or amendment
provided for by such Supplemental Indenture. In that case, upon demand of the Holder of any
Bond Outstanding at such effective date and presentation of his Bond for the purpose at the
principal corporate trust operations office of the Trustee or at such other office as the Trustee
may select and designate for that purpose, a suitable notation shall be made on such Bond. The
City may determine that new Bonds, so modified as in the opinion of the City is necessary to
conform to such Supplemental Indenture, shall be prepared, executed and delivered. In that case,
upon demand of the Holder of any Bond then Outstanding, such new Bonds shall be exchanged
at the principal corporate trust operations office of the Trustee without cost to any Bondholder,
for Bonds then Outstanding, upon surrender of such Bonds.
Section 8.07. Irrevocable Consent. Subject to Section 8.03, any consent pursuant to the
provisions of this Article by any Holder of a Bond shall be irrevocable, and shall be conclusive
and binding upon all future Holders of the same Bond delivered on transfer thereof or in
exchange therefor or in replacement thereof.
ARTICLE IX
EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES OF BONDHOLDERS
Section 9.01. Events of Default. The occurrence of one or more of the following events
shall constitute an “Event of Default”:

whether at maturity as therein expressed, by proceedings for redemption or otherwise;
-58- Master Trust Indenture

conditions on its part contained in the Indenture or in the Bonds contained, and failure to
remedy the same for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof, specifying such
failure and requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the City by the
Trustee, or to the City and the Trustee by the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding;

relief of debtors are instituted by or against the City and, if instituted against the City,
said proceedings are consented to or are not dismissed within 30 days after such
institution; or
(e) any event specified in a Supplemental Indenture as constituting an Event
of Default under the Indenture;
provided that any failure by the City to make payment as described in subparagraph (a) or (b) of
this Section shall not constitute an Event of Default with respect to any Bond if the Supplemental
Indenture authorizing the issuance of such Bond provides that due and punctual payment by a
Security Instrument Issuer or a Reserve Instrument Issuer shall not give rise to an Event of
Default and such payment is, in fact, duly and punctually made.
The Trustee shall give notice to any Security Instrument Issuer or Reserve Instrument
Issuer of any Event of Default known to the Trustee within 30 days after it has knowledge
thereof.
Section 9.02. Remedies.

(i) the Trustee may proceed, and
(ii) upon the written request of (x) the Holders of a majority of the Principal
amount of the Outstanding Bonds, (y) Security Instrument Issuers at the time providing
Security Instruments which are in full force and effect and not in default on any payment
obligation and which secure a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Bonds then
Outstanding, or (z) any combination of Bondholders and Security Instrument Issuers
described under clauses (x) and (y) representing a majority in aggregate Principal amount
of the Bonds at the time Outstanding, shall proceed,
-59- Master Trust Indenture
to protect and enforce its rights and the rights under the Indenture of the Bondholders, the
Security Instrument Issuers and the Reserve Instrument Issuers forthwith by any available
remedy, including, without limitation, suit or suits in equity or at law, whether for the payment of
any amount due hereunder or on the Bonds, or for the specific performance of any covenant
herein contained, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted or any remedy granted
under the Act, or for an accounting against the City, as if the City were the trustee of an express
trust, or in the enforcement of any other legal or equitable right, as the Trustee, being advised by
counsel, shall deem most effectual to enforce any of its rights or to perform any of its duties
under the Indenture.
(b) All rights of action under this Indenture or under any of the Bonds may be enforced
by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Bonds or the production thereof in any trial
or other proceeding relating thereto. Any suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be
brought in its name as Trustee without the necessity of joining any Holders or other parties as
plaintiffs or defendants.
(c) No delay in exercising or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing
upon any Event of Default shall impair that remedy, right or power or shall be construed to be a
waiver of any default or Event of Default or acquiescence therein. Every remedy, right and
power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed to be expedient.
(d) In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any remedy, right or power
under this Indenture in any suit, action or proceedings, and the suit, action or proceedings shall
have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to
the Trustee, then the City, the Trustee, the Bondholders, the Security Instruments Issuers and the

or proceedings had been taken.

covenants that if an Event of Default shall have happened and shall not have been remedied, the
books of record and accounts of the City and all other records of the City relating to the

and attorneys. The City covenants that if an Event of Default shall happen and shall not have
been remedied, the City, upon demand of the Trustee, will account, as if it were the trustee of an
express trust, for all Revenues and other moneys, securities and funds pledged or held under the
Resolution for such period as shall be stated in such demand.
Section 9.04. Application of Revenues and Other Moneys after Default.

and such moneys, securities and funds and the income therefrom as follows and in the following

to the amounts due thereon, to the persons entitled thereto,
without any discrimination or preference; and
SECOND: To the payment to the persons entitled thereto of the
unpaid Principal or Redemption Price of any Bonds and Security
Instrument Repayment Obligations which shall have become due,

Obligations due on any date, then to the payment thereof ratably,
according to the amounts of Principal or Redemption Price due
on such date, to the persons entitled thereto, without any
discrimination or preference.
(3) to the payment of all obligations owed to all Reserve Instrument Issuers
according to the amounts due without any discrimination or preference.
(b) If and whenever all overdue installments of interest on all Bonds and Repayment
Obligations, together with the reasonable and proper charges and expenses of the Trustee, and all
other sums payable by the City under the Indenture, including the Principal and Redemption

be made good or secured to the satisfaction of the Trustee and the Repayment Obligations shall
be made good or secured to the satisfaction of the Security Instrument Issuers and the Reserve
Instrument Issuers as appropriate, or provision deemed by the Trustee and, in the case of
Repayment Obligations, to the Security Instrument Issuers and the Reserve Instrument Issuers, as
appropriate, to be adequate shall be made therefor, the Trustee shall pay over to the City all such
Revenues then remaining unexpended in the hands of the Trustee (except Revenues deposited or
pledged, or required by the terms of the Indenture to be deposited or pledged, with the Trustee),
and thereupon the City and the Trustee shall be restored, respectively, to their former positions
-61- Master Trust Indenture
and rights under the Indenture, and all Revenues shall thereafter be applied as provided in Article
V. No such payment over to the City by the Trustee or resumption of the application of
Revenues as provided in Article V shall extend to or affect any subsequent default under the
Indenture or impair any right consequent thereon.
Section 9.05. Rights and Remedies of Bondholders.
(a) No Holder of any Bond, any Security Instrument Issuer or Reserve Instrument
Issuer shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this

previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;
(2) either (x) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate Principal amount
of the Outstanding Bonds, (y) Security Instrument Issuers at the time providing Security

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of
indemnity has failed to institute any such proceedings; and
(5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the
Trustee during such 60 day period by (1) the Holders of a majority in Principal amount of
the Outstanding Bonds, (2) Security Instrument Issuers at the time providing Security
Instruments which are in full force and effect and not in default on any payment
obligation and which secure a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Bonds then
Outstanding, or (3) any combination of Bondholders and Security Instrument Issuers
described in clauses (1) and (2) representing a majority in aggregate Principal amount of
the Bonds at the time Outstanding;
it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Bonds or Security Instrument
Issuers shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such parties, or to obtain or
to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other such parties or to enforce any right under
-62- Master Trust Indenture
this Indenture, except in the manner herein and therein provided and for the equal and ratable
benefit of all such parties in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Bond shall
have the right which is absolute and unconditional to receive payment of the Principal of,
Redemption Price and interest on such Bond on the respective stated maturities expressed in such
Bond (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption date of such Bond) and to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such payment, subject only to any conditions of any Security
Instrument Issuer providing a Security Instrument securing such Bond. Such right to receive
payment shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.
(c) (i) The Holders of a majority of the Principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds, (ii)

effect and not in default on any payment obligation and which secure a majority in aggregate

Security Instrument Issuers described under clauses (i) and (ii) representing a majority in
aggregate Principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding, shall have the right to direct
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee
or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that:
(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or this
Indenture,
(2) the Trustee shall not determine that the action so directed would be
unjustly prejudicial to the Holders and Security Instrument Issuers not taking part in such
direction, and
(3) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which
is not inconsistent with such direction.

upon the filing of a suit or other commencement of judicial proceedings to enforce the rights of
the Trustee and of the Bondholders, the Security Instrument Issuers and the Reserve Instrument
Issuers, the Trustee shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to the appointment of a receiver or
receivers of the trust estate created hereby, including, without limitation, the proceeds of the sale
of the Bonds, the Revenues and the Funds, including the investments, if any, thereof, pending
such proceedings, with such powers as a court making such appointments shall confer.
Section 9.07. Non-Waiver. Nothing in this Article or in any other provision of the

and the Reserve Instrument Issuers, as appropriate, at the respective dates of maturity, or upon
call for redemption, as herein provided, out of the Revenues, Funds and other moneys, securities
and funds herein pledged for such payment, or affect or impair the right of action, which is also
absolute and unconditional, of such Holders, Security Instrument Issuers or Reserve Instrument

any Holder of the Bonds or, with respect to Repayment Obligations, of any Security Instrument
Issuer or Reserve Instrument Issuer as appropriate, to exercise any right or power arising upon
the happening of any Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed
to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and every power and
remedy given by this Article to the Trustee or to the Holders of Bonds or, with respect to
Repayment Obligations, to Security Instrument Issuers and Reserve Instrument Issuers, as
appropriate, may be exercised from time to time and as often as shall be deemed expedient by the
Trustee, the Holders of the Bonds, the Security Instrument Issuers and the Reserve Instrument
Issuers.
Section 9.08. Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the Trustee or to the Holders of Bonds or, with respect to Repayment Obligations, to Security
Instrument Issuers and Reserve Instrument Issuers, as appropriate, is intended to be exclusive of
any other remedy, and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every
other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing, at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise, and may be exercised at any time or from time to time, and as often as may be
necessary, by the Trustee, the Holder of any one or more of the Bonds or, with respect to
Repayment Obligations, by Security Instrument Issuers and Reserve Instrument Issuers, as
appropriate. Nothing herein contained shall permit the levy of any attachment or execution upon
any of the properties of the City, nor shall any properties of the City be subject to forfeiture by
reason of any default hereunder, it being expressly understood and agreed by each and every
Bondholder by the acceptance of any Bond and by each and every Security Instrument Issuer and
Reserve Instrument Issuer by entering into Security Instrument Agreements and Reserve
Instrument Agreements, as appropriate, that the rights of all such Bondholders, Security
Instrument Issuers and Reserve Instrument Issuers are limited and restricted to the use and
application of Revenues, Funds and other moneys, securities and funds pledged under the
Indenture in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.
Section 9.09. Waivers of Events of Default. The Trustee:
(i) may waive, and
(ii) upon the written direction of (x) the Holders of a majority of the Principal
amount of the Outstanding Bonds, (y) Security Instrument Issuers at the time providing
Security Instruments which are in full force and effect and not in default on any payment
obligation and which secure a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Bonds then
Outstanding, or (z) any combination of Bondholders and Security Instrument Issuers
described under clauses (x) and (y) representing a majority in aggregate Principal amount
of the Bonds at the time Outstanding, shall waive,
any Event of Default hereunder and its consequences; provided, however, that (x) there shall not
be waived any Event of Default specified in Section 9.01(a) or Section 9.01(b) hereof unless
prior to such waiver the City shall have caused to be deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient
to pay all matured installments of interest upon all Bonds and the Principal of any and all Bonds
-64- Master Trust Indenture
which shall have become due (with interest upon such Principal and, to the extent permissible by
law, on overdue installments of interest, at the rate per annum specified in the Bonds) and (y) no
Event of Default shall be waived unless (in addition to the applicable conditions as aforesaid)
there shall have been deposited with the Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover
reasonable compensation and reimbursement of expenses payable to the Trustee. No such
waiver shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default or Event of Default or shall impair
any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

such duties under the terms of the Indenture and under all applicable local, state and federal laws.
(c) All Revenues and other moneys held by any Agent under the Indenture may be
placed on demand or time deposit, if and as directed by the City, provided that such deposits
shall permit the moneys so held to be available for use at the time when needed. The City and
the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss or depreciation in value resulting from any investment
made pursuant to the Indenture. Any such deposit may be made in the commercial banking
department of any Agent which may honor checks and drafts on such deposit with the same force
and effect as if it were not such Agent. All moneys held by any Agent, as such, may be
deposited by such Agent in its banking department on demand or, if and to the extent directed by
the City and acceptable to such Agent, on time deposit, provided that such moneys on deposit be
available for use at the time when needed. Such Agent shall allow and credit on such moneys

conditions or as required by law.
-65- Master Trust Indenture
(d) All moneys deposited with the Trustee and each Agent shall be credited to the
particular Fund or account to which such moneys belong; provided, however, nothing herein
contained shall prohibit the City from directing the Trustee or a Agent by a Written Request of
the City to make inter-Fund or account transfers of investments at the market value of the
investments so transferred, as such market value shall be determined by the City at the time of
transfer and set forth in the Written Request. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the
determination set forth in the Written Request.
Section 10.02. Investment of Funds.
(a) Moneys held in any Fund or account shall be invested and reinvested by the City or
the Trustee to the fullest extent practicable in Investment Securities which mature not later than
such times as shall be necessary to provide moneys when needed for payments to be made from
such Fund or account, subject to the following:
(1) the Trustee shall make such investments only in accordance with written
instructions received from an Authorized Officer of the City;
(2) any Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of Bonds may impose
additional restrictions on moneys held in any Fund or account; and
(3) any Supplemental Indenture authorizing a Series of Bonds may authorize

Bond Service Account or Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Account created by such
Supplemental Indenture and relating to such Series of Bonds in such other investments as
may be specified by the Supplemental Indenture.
(b) Subject to any required rebate of earnings on investments in any Fund or account to

otherwise, to be retained therein.

maximize earnings resulting from any investment made in accordance with the provisions of this

Security, remains an Investment Security thereafter.
(d) The Trustee may make any and all investments permitted by the provisions of this
Section 10.02 through its own investment department or that of its affiliates. As and when any
-66- Master Trust Indenture
amount invested pursuant to this Article X may be needed for disbursement, the Trustee may
cause a sufficient amount of such investments to be sold and reduced to cash to the credit of such
funds. The City acknowledges that to the extent that regulations of the Comptroller of the
Currency or other applicable regulatory agency grant the City the right to receive brokerage
confirmations of security transactions, the City waives receipt of such confirmations. The
Trustee shall furnish to the City periodic statements that include detail of all investment
transactions made by the Trustee.
Section 10.03. Arbitrage Covenant. The City covenants that moneys on deposit in any
Fund, whether or not such moneys were derived from proceeds of sales of Bonds or from any
other sources, will not be used in a manner which will cause any Bonds, the interest on which is
to be exempt from federal income taxation under the Code, to be “arbitrage bonds” within the
meaning of Section 148 of the Code; provided, however, that this covenant shall not prevent the
issuance of a Series of Bonds the interest on which is subject to Federal income taxation under
the Code.

become due thereon, at the times and in the manner stipulated therein and in the Indenture and if

Outstanding Bonds the Principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest due or to
become due thereon, at the times and in the manner stipulated therein and in the Indenture, such
Bonds shall cease to be entitled to any lien, benefit or security under the Indenture, and all

have been set aside and shall be held in trust by the Trustee (through deposit by the City of funds
for such payment or redemption or otherwise) at the maturity or redemption date thereof shall be
deemed to have been paid within the meaning and with the effect expressed in subsection (a) of
this Section, unless otherwise provided in a Supplemental Indenture with respect to a Series of

Bonds, all Outstanding Bonds of any Series shall prior to the maturity or redemption date thereof

of this Section if:

maturity, the City shall have given to the Trustee in form satisfactory to it irrevocable
instructions to mail as provided in Article IV notice of redemption of such Bonds on said
date;
(2) there shall have been deposited with the Trustee either moneys in an
amount which shall be sufficient, or noncallable Government Obligations (including any
Government Obligations issued or held in book-entry form on the books of the
Department of the Treasury of the United States of America) the principal of and the
interest on which when due will provide moneys which, together with the moneys, if any,
deposited with the Trustee at the same time, shall be sufficient, to pay when due the
Principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest due and to become due on said
Bonds on and prior to the redemption date or maturity date thereof, as the case may be;
and
(3) in the event said Bonds are not by their terms subject to redemption within
the next succeeding 90 days, the City shall have given the Trustee in form satisfactory to
it irrevocable instructions to mail, first class postage prepaid, a notice to the Holders of
such Bonds that the deposit required by (2) above has been made with the Trustee and
that said Bonds are deemed to have been paid in accordance with this Section and stating
such maturity or redemption date upon which moneys are to be available for the payment
of the Principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, on said Bonds.
Neither Government Obligations nor moneys deposited with the Trustee pursuant to this
Section nor principal or interest payments on any such Government Obligations shall be
withdrawn or used for any purpose other than, and shall be held in trust for, the payment of the
Principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on said Bonds; provided that any cash
received from such principal or interest payments on such Government Obligations deposited
with the Trustee, if not then needed for such purpose, shall, to the extent practicable, be
reinvested in Government Obligations maturing at times and in amounts sufficient to pay when
due the Principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest to become due on said Bonds
on and prior to such redemption date or maturity date thereof, as the case may be, and interest
earned from such reinvestments shall be paid over to the City, as received by the Trustee, free
and clear of any trust, lien or pledge.

notwithstanding, any moneys held by an Agent in trust for the payment and discharge of any of
the Bonds which remain unclaimed for four years after the date when such Bonds have become
due and payable, either at their stated maturity dates or by call for earlier redemption, if such
moneys were held by the Agent at such date, or for four years after the date of deposit of such
moneys if deposited with the Agent after the said date when such Bonds become due and
payable, shall, at the Written Request of the City, be repaid by the Agent to the City, as its
absolute property and free from trust, and the Agent shall thereupon be released and discharged
with respect thereto and the Bondholders shall look only to the City for the payment of such
Bonds.

manually authenticated by it.
Section 209. Delivery of Series 2021A Bonds. The Series 2021A Bonds shall be delivered
to the Underwriter, upon compliance with the provisions of Section 3.02 of the Indenture, at such
time and place as provided in, and subject to, the provisions of the Purchase Contract.
Section 210. Book-Entry System. The Series 2021A Bonds shall be initially issued in the

Series 2021A Bonds, and held in the custody of the Securities Depository. A single certificate will
be issued and delivered to the Securities Depository for each maturity of the Series 2021A Bonds,
- 12 - __________ Supplemental Indenture
and the Beneficial Owners will not receive physical delivery of Series 2021A Bond certificates
except as provided herein. For so long as the Securities Depository shall continue to serve as
securities depository for the Series 2021A Bonds as provided herein, all transfers of beneficial
ownership interests will be made by book-entry only, and no investor or other party purchasing,
selling or otherwise transferring beneficial ownership of Series 2021A Bonds is to receive, hold
or deliver any Series 2021A Bond certificate.
At the direction of the City, with notice to the Trustee, but without the consent of the Series
2021A Bondholders and the Trustee, the City may appoint a successor Securities Depository and
enter into an agreement with the successor Securities Depository to establish procedures with
respect to a Book-Entry System for the Series 2021A Bonds not inconsistent with the provisions
of the Indenture. Any successor Securities Depository shall be a “clearing agency” registered
under Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The City and the Trustee may rely conclusively upon (a) a certificate of the Securities
Depository as to the identity of the Participants in the Book-Entry System with respect to the Series
2021A Bonds and (b) a certificate of any such Participant as to the identity of and the respective
Principal amount of the Series 2021A Bonds beneficially owned by the Beneficial Owners.
Whenever, during the term of the Series 2021A Bonds, the beneficial ownership thereof is
determined by a book-entry at the Securities Depository, the requirements in the Indenture of
holding, delivering or transferring such Series 2021A Bonds shall be deemed modified to require
the appropriate person to meet the requirements of the Securities Depository as to registering or
transferring the book-entry to produce the same effect. Any provision hereof permitting or
requiring delivery of the Series 2021A Bonds shall, while such Series 2021A Bonds are in the
Book-Entry System, be satisfied by the notation on the books of the Securities Depository in
accordance with applicable state law.
Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Indenture and the Series 2021A Bonds
with respect to the rights of Participants and Beneficial Owners, when a Book-Entry System is in
effect, the City and the Trustee may treat the Securities Depository (or its nominee) as the sole and
exclusive owner of the Series 2021A Bonds registered in its name for the purposes of payment of
the Principal or purchase price of and interest on such Series 2021A Bonds or portion thereof to
be redeemed or purchased, of giving any notice permitted or required to be given to the Series
2021A Bondholders under the Indenture and of voting, and none of the City and the Trustee shall
be affected by any notice to the contrary. None of the City or the Trustee will have any
responsibility or obligations to the Securities Depository, any Participant, any Beneficial Owner
or any other person which is not shown on the bond register, with respect to (i) the accuracy of
any records maintained by the Securities Depository or any Participant; (ii) the payment by the
Securities Depository or by any Participant of any amount due to any Beneficial Owner in respect
of the Principal amount or redemption or purchase price of, or interest on, any Series 2021A Bonds;
(iii) the delivery of any notice by the Securities Depository or any Participant; (iv) the selection of
the Beneficial Owners to receive payment in the event of any partial redemption of any of the
Series 2021A Bonds; or (v) any other action taken by the Securities Depository or any Participant.
The Trustee shall pay all Principal or purchase price of and interest on the Series 2021A Bonds
registered in the name of Cede only to or “upon the order of” the Securities Depository (as that
- 13 - __________ Supplemental Indenture
term is used in the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in Utah and New York), and all such
payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City’s obligations with
respect to the Principal or purchase price of and interest on such Series 2021A Bonds to the extent
of the sum or sums so paid.
The Book-Entry System may be discontinued for the Series 2021A Bonds by the Trustee
and the City, at the direction and expense of the City, and the City and the Trustee will cause the
delivery of Series 2021A Bond certificates to such Beneficial Owners of the Series 2021A Bonds
and registered in the names of such Beneficial Owners as shall be specified to the Trustee by the
Securities Depository in writing, under the following circumstances:
(A) The Securities Depository determines to discontinue providing its service
with respect to the Series 2021A Bonds and no successor Securities Depository is
appointed as described above. Such a determination may be made at any time by giving
30 days’ notice to the City and the Trustee and discharging its responsibilities with respect
thereto under applicable law.
(B) The City determines not to continue the Book-Entry System through a
Securities Depository for the Series 2021A Bonds.
When the Book-Entry System is not in effect, all references herein to the Securities
Depository shall be of no further force or effect.
Section 211. Representation Letter. The City’s execution and delivery of the
Representation Letter shall not in any way limit the provisions of Section 210 hereof or in any
other way impose upon the City any obligation whatsoever with respect to persons having interests
in the Series 2021A Bonds other than the Holders thereof.
Section 212. Partial Payment of Series 2021A Bonds Held by DTC. In the event of a
redemption or any other similar transaction necessitating a reduction in aggregate Principal amount
of any of the Series 2021A Bonds outstanding, DTC in its discretion: (a) may request the Trustee
to issue and authenticate a new Series 2021A Bond certificate, or (b) shall make an appropriate
notation on the Series 2021A Bond certificate indicating the date and amounts of such reduction
in Principal, except in the case of final maturity in which case the certificate must be presented to
the Trustee prior to payment.
Section 213. Payments to Cede. Notwithstanding any other provision of this __________
Supplemental Indenture to the contrary, so long as any Series 2021A Bond is registered in the
name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect to Principal of and interest on such
Series 2021A Bond and all notices with respect to such Series 2021A Bond shall be made and
given, respectively, in the manner provided in the Representation Letter.

(a) local sales and use taxes (the “Local Sales Taxes”);

as securities depository for the Series 2021A Bonds. The Series 2021A Bonds will be issued in

book-entry form only, in the principal amount of $5,000 and any whole multiple thereof. See
“APPENDIX E – PROVISIONS REGARDING BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM.”
The Series 2021A Bonds are special limited obligations of the City, payable solely from
the proceeds of the Series 2021A Bonds, the Revenues, moneys, securities and funds pledged
therefor in the Indenture. The Revenues consist of the Pledged Excise Taxes. No assurance

nominee, Cede & Co., to be held in DTC’s book-entry only system. So long as such Series 2021A

Principal and interest and rights of exchange and transfer.
The City cannot and does not give any assurances that DTC participants or others will
distribute payments with respect to the Series 2021A Bonds received by DTC or its nominee as
the Registered Owner, or any prepayment or other notices, to the Beneficial Owners, or that they
will do so on a timely basis, or that DTC will service and act in the manner described in this

MANDATORY
REDEMPTION AMOUNT

*
_______________
* Stated Maturity
In determining the amount of any mandatory redemption installment due on any date specified
above, there shall be deducted the principal amount of any Series 2021A Bonds which have been
redeemed or purchased on a date not less than 30 days preceding the date on which such mandatory
redemption installment is due from moneys accumulated in the Bond Service Account with respect
to such mandatory redemption installment. Upon any purchase or redemption of the Series 2021A
Bonds, there will be credited toward the mandatory sinking fund redemption installments
thereafter to become due such amount as may be designated by the City in a Written Request
delivered to the Trustee.
Partial Redemption. Upon surrender of a Series 2021A Bond redeemed in part, the City
will execute and the Trustee (or any Transfer Agent) will authenticate and deliver to the Holder
thereof a new Series 2021A Bond or Series 2021A Bonds in the denomination of $5,000 and any
whole multiple thereof equal in Principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Series 2021A
Bond surrendered. So long as the Series 2021A Bonds are held in the book-entry only system,
Series 2021A Bonds will not be delivered as set forth above; rather transfers of beneficial
ownership of the Series 2021A Bonds to the person indicated will be effected on the registration
books of DTC pursuant to its rules and procedures. See “APPENDIX E – PROVISIONS REGARDING
BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM.”
NOTICE OF REDEMPTION
At least 30 but not more than 60 days prior to each redemption date, the Trustee will mail
notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Bondholder at the Holder’s registered address.
Unless moneys sufficient to pay the Principal of, and interest on the Series 2021A Bonds to be
- 14 -
redeemed have been received by the Trustee prior to the giving of such notice of redemption, such
notice may state that said redemption will be conditioned upon the receipt of such moneys by the
Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for redemption. If such moneys are not received, such notice
will be of no force and effect, the City will not redeem such Series 2021A Bonds and the Trustee
will give notice, in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys
were not so received and that such Series 2021A Bonds will not be redeemed. Neither failure to
give any required notice of redemption as to any particular Series 2021A Bonds nor any defect in
any notice so mailed will affect the validity of the call for redemption of any Series 2021A Bonds.
Any notice mailed as provided in this paragraph will be conclusively presumed to have been given
whether or not actually received by the addressee.
Except as otherwise described in the preceding paragraph with respect to a conditional
notice of redemption, when notice of redemption is required and given, Series 2021A Bonds called
for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date at the applicable redemption price,
and in such case when funds are deposited with the Trustee sufficient for redemption, interest on
the Series 2021A Bonds to be redeemed ceases to accrue as of the date of redemption.
REGISTRATION, TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE
In the event the book-entry system is discontinued, any Series 2021A Bond may, in
accordance with its terms, be transferred, upon the registration books kept by the Trustee, by the
person in whose name it is registered, in person or by his or her duly authorized attorney, upon
surrender of such Series 2021A Bond for cancellation, or, if applicable, notation of the new Holder
together with the signature of the Trustee or any applicable Transfer Agent on the back of such
Series 2021A Bond, or on a form of record attached to such Series 2021A Bond for such purpose,
accompanied by delivery of a duly executed written instrument of transfer in a form approved by
the Trustee. No transfer will be effective until entered on the registration books kept by the
Trustee.
For every such exchange or transfer of the Series 2021A Bonds, the Trustee or the Transfer
Agent will require the payment by the Bondholder requesting such exchange or transfer of any tax
or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer of the
Series 2021A Bonds.
The City, the Trustee and any Transfer Agent are not required (a) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Series 2021A Bond during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before the date of mailing of a notice of redemption of the Series 2021A Bonds
selected for redemption and ending on the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) to
register the transfer of or exchange of any Series 2021A Bond so selected for redemption in whole
or in part, except the unredeemed portion of the Series 2021A Bonds being redeemed in part.
The City, the Trustee and the Transfer Agent may treat and consider the person in whose
name each Series 2021A Bond is registered in the registration books kept by the Trustee as the
Holder and absolute owner of such Series 2021A Bond for the purpose of payment of Principal of
and interest on such Series 2021A Bond and for all other purposes whatsoever.

SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2021A BONDS
PLEDGED EXCISE TAXES
The Series 2021A Bonds will be special limited obligations of the City, payable solely
from and secured solely by a pledge of the Revenues, or the Pledged Excises Taxes, which consist
of the Local Sales Taxes, the Municipal Energy Taxes, the Telecommunications Taxes, the Energy
Franchise Fees, the Public Utilities Franchise Fees and the Cable Franchise Fees, each of which is
described in more detail below.
Local Sales Taxes. The Local Sales and Use Tax Act, Title 59, Chapter 12, Part 2, Utah
Code (the “Local Sales and Use Tax Act”), provides that each county, city and town in the State
may levy a local sales and use tax of up to 1.00% on the purchase price of taxable goods and
services. The legislative intent contained in the Local Sales and Use Tax Act is to provide an
additional source of revenues to counties and municipalities that is to be used to finance their
capital outlay requirements and to service their bonded indebtedness. The City has levied the
Local Sales Taxes at the maximum legal rate of 1.00%.
Sales tax is imposed on the amount paid or charged for sales of tangible personal property
in the State and for services rendered in the State for the repair, renovation or installation of
tangible personal property. Use tax is imposed on the amount paid or charged for the use, storage
or other consumption of tangible personal property in the State, including services for the repair,
renovation or installation of such tangible personal property. Sales and use taxes also apply to
leases and rentals of tangible personal property if the tangible personal property is in the State, the
lessee takes possession in the State or the tangible personal property is stored, used or otherwise
consumed in the State.
In addition to the Local Sales Taxes levied by the City, the State levies a statewide sales
and use tax (the “Statewide Tax”) which is currently imposed at a rate of 4.85% of the purchase
price of taxable goods and services, excluding unprepared food and food ingredients. Sales of
unprepared food and food ingredients are taxed at a rate of 1.75%. The State also levies a 2.00%
tax on sales of natural gas, electricity and fuel oil for residential use. The Statewide Tax is not
pledged to payment of the Series 2021A Bonds and is paid to the State.
In addition to the sales and use taxes described above, counties and cities in the State are
authorized to impose certain additional sales and use taxes for various purposes as authorized by
State law. As of September 1, 2021, the combined sales and use tax levied on taxable goods and
services within the City’s boundaries by the State, Salt Lake County and the City is 7.75% and is
comprised of certain of the various sales taxes mentioned in the preceding sentence, the Statewide
Tax and the Local Sales Taxes. However, only the 1.00% portion of the revenues derived from
the collection of these sales and use taxes makes up the Local Sales Taxes pledged to the payment
of the debt service on the Series 2021A Bonds.
Local sales and use taxes, including the Local Sales Taxes, are collected by the Tax
Commission and distributed on a monthly basis to each county, city and town. The distributions
to the City are based on a formula, which provides that (a) 50% of each dollar of sales tax
- 16 -
collections will be distributed on the basis of the population of the local government and (b) 50%
of each dollar of sales tax collections will be distributed on the basis of the point of sale.
For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019, the City budgeted Local Sales Tax revenues of
$62,950,961 and the City actually received revenues of $__________. For the Fiscal Year Ended
June 30, 2020, the City initially budgeted Local Sales Tax revenues of $__________, which was
subsequently revised to be $__________, and the City actually received revenues of $__________.
The City budgeted Local Sales Tax revenues of $__________ for the fiscal year ending June 30,
2021; the City is currently projecting Local Sales Tax revenues of approximately $__________
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021 (which is based on actually collections of $__________
through __________, 2021).
The City is not legally allowed to provide actual dollar figures of sales and use tax
collections by specific businesses. However, during the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2020, of the
top 50 businesses, only [eight] of such businesses generated at least 1% of the total Local Sales
Taxes collected in the City. Together, these [eight] businesses generated ____% of the Local Sales
Tax revenues generated in the City. No single business accounted for more than ____% of the
City’s total Local Sales Tax revenues. The five largest industry segments collecting the sales and
use taxes include automotive, eating and drinking, grocery stores, non-durable goods and
retail/miscellaneous.
Municipal Energy Taxes. The Municipal Energy Sales and Use Tax Act, Title 10,
Chapter 1, Part 3, Utah Code (the “Municipal Energy Tax Act”) authorizes cities or towns to levy
a municipal sales and use tax of up to 6% of the sale or use of taxable energy. The municipal
energy sales and use tax is levied on the value of the sale or use of gas and electricity (including
the value of the energy and the costs typically incurred in providing such energy in usable form to
the customer). Certain limited transactions are exempted from the tax.
The sale or use of all taxable energy within the City is being taxed at the maximum rate of
6% under the Municipal Energy Tax Act.
Municipal energy sales and use taxes, including the Municipal Energy Taxes, are collected
by the Tax Commission and transferred (less certain administrative fees) monthly to each city or
town based on the point of sale or the point of use. Under certain circumstances, municipal energy
sales and use taxes may be collected by the energy supplier and distributed directly to the
applicable city or town. Under the applicable franchise agreement, Energy Franchise Fees are
collected by the applicable energy provider and distributed to the City each month.
For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019, the City budgeted Municipal Energy Tax
revenues of $6,005,845 and the City actually received $__________ of such revenues. For the
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2020, the City budgeted Municipal Energy Tax revenues of
$_________[, which was subsequently revised to be $__________,] and the City actually received
$__________ of such revenues. The City budgeted Municipal Energy Tax revenues of
$__________ for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021; the City is currently projecting Municipal
Energy Tax revenues of approximately $__________ for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021
(which is based on actual collections of $__________ through __________, 2021).
- 17 -
Telecommunications Taxes. The Municipal Telecommunications License Tax Act, Title
10, Chapter 1, Part 4, Utah Code (the “Municipal Telecommunications Tax Act”), provides that a
city or town may levy on and provide that there is collected from a telecommunications provider
a municipal telecommunications license tax on the telecommunications provider’s gross receipts
that are attributed to such city or town. The gross receipts from a telecommunication service are
attributable to a municipality if the gross receipts are for telecommunication service that is located
within the municipality. The City collects the Telecommunications Taxes at the maximum legal
rate of 3.50%.
Telecommunication license taxes, including the Telecommunication Taxes, are collected
by the Tax Commission and transferred (less certain administrative fees) monthly to each city or
town.
For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019, the City budgeted Telecommunications Tax
revenues of $5,928,300 and the City actually received $__________ of such revenues. For the
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2020, the City budgeted Telecommunications Tax revenues of
$__________[, which was subsequently revised to be $__________,] and the City actually
received $__________ of such revenues. The City budgeted Telecommunications Tax revenues
of $__________ for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021; the City is currently projecting
Telecommunications Tax revenues of approximately $__________ for the fiscal year ending June
30, 2021 (which is based on actual collections of $__________ through __________, 2021).
Public Utilities Franchise Fees. The City requires the Public Utilities Department of the
City to pay the City a franchise fee equal to 6% of the gross revenues received by the department
from the operation of the public utility. The purpose of the Public Utilities Franchise Fee is to
fairly and equally charge for the department’s use of the City’s streets. The Public Utilities
Department collects the Public Utilities Franchise Fee in its billing for water, sewer and stormwater
services rendered within City limits. The Public Utilities Franchise Fees collected by the Public
Utilities Department are paid to the City’s general fund within 45 days after the close of each
month.
For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019, the City budgeted Public Utilities Franchise Fee
revenues of $1,500,000 and the City actually received $__________ of such revenues. For the
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2020, the City budgeted Public Utilities Franchise Fee revenues of
$__________[, which was subsequently revised to be $__________,] and the City actually
received $__________ of such revenues. The City budgeted Public Utilities Franchise Fee
revenues of $__________ for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021; the City is currently projecting
Public Utilities Franchise Fee revenues of approximately $__________ for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 2021 (which is based on actual collections of $__________ through __________, 2021).
Cable Franchise Fees. The City requires that grantees of a cable franchise within the City
pay a franchise fee equal to 5% of the gross revenues received from the operation of the cable
system. Cable Franchise Fees are calculated on a quarterly basis and are due and payable 90 days
after the close of the quarter. Any Cable Franchise Fees that have not been paid when due shall
bear interest at a rate of 18% per year until paid. The City may request an audit of a grantee’s full
billing records.

year ending June 30, 2021; the City is currently projecting Cable Franchise Fee revenues of
approximately $__________ for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021 (which is based on actual
collections of $__________ through __________, 2021).
Unpaid Pledged Sales and Use Taxes. A sales and use tax, including the Pledged Sales
and Use Taxes, due and unpaid constitutes a debt due from the vendor and may be collected,
together with interest, penalty, and costs, by appropriate judicial proceeding within three years
after the vendor is delinquent. Furthermore, if a sales and use tax is not paid when due and if the
vendor has not followed the procedures to object to a notice of deficiency, the Tax Commission
may issue a warrant directed to the sheriff of any county commanding the sheriff to levy upon and
sell the real and personal property of a delinquent taxpayer found within such county for the
payment of the tax due. The amount of the warrant shall have the force and effect of an execution
against all personal property of the delinquent taxpayer and shall become a lien upon the real
property of the delinquent taxpayer in the same manner as a judgment duly rendered by any district
court.

STATE PLEDGE OF NONIMPAIRMENT
In accordance with Section 11-14-307, Utah Code, the State pledges and agrees with the
Holders of the Series 2021A Bonds that it will not alter, impair or limit the Pledged Excise Taxes
in a manner that reduces the amounts to be rebated to the City which are devoted or pledged for
the payment of the Series 2021A Bonds until the Series 2021A Bonds, together with applicable
- 19 -
interest, are fully met and discharged; provided, however, that nothing shall preclude such
alteration, impairment or limitation if and when adequate provision shall be made by law for the
protection of the Holders of the Series 2021A Bonds.
The City notes that this provision has not been interpreted by a court of law and, therefore,
the City cannot predict the extent that such provision would (a) be upheld under constitutional or
other legal challenge, (b) protect the current rates and collection of all Pledged Excise Taxes, or
(c) impact any other aspect of Pledged Excise Taxes.
FLOW OF FUNDS
To secure the timely payment of the Principal of and interest on the Series 2021A Bonds,
the City has pledged and assigned to the Trustee the Revenues and all moneys in the funds and
accounts (except the Rebate Fund, if any) established by the Indenture. The Indenture establishes
a Principal and Interest Fund, to be held by the Trustee and a Revenue Fund to be held by the City
and certain other funds and accounts.
In general, the Indenture requires that all Revenues be deposited into the Revenue Fund
and that the City transfer, on or before the last Business Day of each month, from the Revenue
Fund (a) first, the amount, if any, required so that the balance in each of the Series Subaccounts in
the Bond Service Account equals the Accrued Debt Service on the related Series of Bonds and (b)
second, the amount, if any, required to be deposited into the Series Subaccounts in the Debt Service
Reserve Account. Following such deposits, the City is to retain in the Revenue Fund the amount
estimated to be required for deposits described in (a) and (b) above in the next succeeding month.
Any remaining Revenues may be used by the City, free and clear of the lien of the Indenture. For
a more detailed description of application of Revenues under the Indenture see
“APPENDIX B – MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Section 5.05. Revenues; Revenue Fund” and
“– Section 5.06. Flow of Funds.”
NO DEBT SERVICE RESERVE
General. The Indenture requires the establishment of a separate Series Subaccount in the
Debt Service Reserve Account for each Series of Bonds, including each Series of the Series 2021A
Bonds. The Supplemental Indenture relating to each Series of Bonds is required to specify the
Debt Service Reserve Requirement for the applicable Series of Bonds that is to be on deposit in
the related Series Subaccount. Each Series Subaccount in the Debt Service Reserve Account
secures only the related Series of Bonds. For more information regarding the Debt Service Reserve
Account see “APPENDIX B – MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Section 5.08. Principal and Interest
Fund - Debt Service Reserve Account.”
Bonds. Although the Thirteenth Supplemental Trust Indenture creates a Series 2021A Debt
Service Reserve Subaccount, the Series 2021A Debt Service Reserve Requirement is equal to $-
0- and no amounts will be on deposit in the Series 2021A Debt Service Reserve Subaccount as a
reserve for the Series 2021A Bonds.
- 20 -
OUTSTANDING PARITY BONDS
When the Series 2021A Bonds are issued, the Outstanding Parity Bonds will also be
outstanding under the Master Indenture in the aggregate principal amount of $__________(which
amount excludes the Refunded Bonds). The Series 2021A Bonds, the Outstanding Parity Bonds
and any Additional Bonds are equally and ratably secured under the terms of the Master Indenture.
ADDITIONAL BONDS
Whenever the City determines to issue any Additional Bonds under the Indenture, the
following requirements must be met:
(a) The City must execute and deliver to the Trustee (among other things) the
following documents:
(i) a Written Certificate of the City setting forth the Principal amount
of the Additional Bonds, the Debt Service for each Fiscal Year of such Additional
Bonds and the Aggregate Debt Service for all Outstanding Bonds, including the
Additional Bonds being issued; and
(ii) a Written Certificate of the City demonstrating (A) in the case of
Additional Bonds issued to finance a Project, that the Revenues for any Year within
the 24 calendar months next preceding the authentication and delivery of the
Additional Bonds proposed to be issued are equal to or greater than 200% of the
Maximum Annual Debt Service on all Outstanding Bonds upon the issuance of the
Additional Bonds proposed to be issued; or (B) in the case of Additional Bonds
issued to refund Bonds issued under the Indenture, either (I) that the Aggregate
Debt Service on the Additional Bonds being issued to refund prior Bonds is no
greater than 100% of the Aggregate Debt Service on the Bonds being refunded for
each Fiscal Year to and including the schedule of final maturity of the Bonds being
refunded, or (II) that the Revenues are equal to or greater than 200% of the
Maximum Annual Debt Service on all Bonds Outstanding upon the issuance of the
refunding Bonds; and
(b) The proceeds of Additional Bonds issued under the Indenture must be used
to (i) refund Bonds issued under the Indenture or other obligations of the City or its Local
Building Authority (including the funding of necessary reserves and the payment of costs
of issuance) and/or (ii) to finance or refinance a Project.
The City may, in determining the Maximum Annual Debt Service on all Outstanding
Bonds and in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, reduce the Debt Service on any Series
of Bonds for any Fiscal Year by (1) the amount of capitalized interest available to pay interest on
such Bonds in such Fiscal Year and (2) the Special Revenues (defined below) pledged to pay such
Debt Service in an amount equal to either (x) the average of the Special Revenues received by the
City for the past three Fiscal Years or (y) 75% of the Special Revenues received by the City for
the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, each as reflected in the applicable audited financial
- 21 -
statements of the City filed with the Trustee; provided however, the Special Revenues applied in
either (x) or (y) above to reduce the Debt Service on a Series of Bonds for a particular Fiscal Year
are not to exceed the Debt Service on such Series of Bonds for said Fiscal Year. “Special
Revenues,” as defined in the Master Indenture, means any legally available moneys or income
from an enterprise of the City or any other source available to the City that are pledged to the
payment of one or more Series of Bonds as provided in a Supplemental Indenture. If Special
Revenues are to be used in connection with the determination of Maximum Annual Debt Service,
then the City is to deliver to the Trustee (a) confirmation from each Rating Agency then
maintaining a rating on any Outstanding Bonds that the pledge of Special Revenues will not result
in the reduction or withdrawal of any rating on any Outstanding Bonds and (b) an Opinion of Bond
Counsel of nationally recognized standing in the field of law relating to municipal bonds to the
effect that such pledge of Special Revenues will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of any
Bonds then Outstanding. No Outstanding Bonds are currently secured by a pledge of Special
Revenues.

Based on the average amount of the Pledged Excise Taxes actually received by the City
over the past 5 fiscal years ($__________), and the anticipated maximum total debt service shown
above ($__________), the average amount of the Pledged Excise Taxes received by the City is
_____ times the maximum total debt service. See “SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2021A
BONDS – Pledged Excise Taxes” herein.
RISK FACTORS
The purchase of the Series 2021A Bonds involves certain investment risks. Accordingly,
each prospective purchaser of the Series 2021A Bonds should make an independent evaluation of
- 23 -
all of the information presented in this Official Statement in order to make an informed investment
decision. Certain of these risks are described below; however, it is not intended to be a complete
representation of all the possible risks involved.
UNCERTAINTY OF REVENUES
The amount of Pledged Excise Taxes to be collected by the City is dependent on a number
of factors beyond the control of either the City or the State, including, but not limited to, current
economic conditions and weather patterns. Any one or more of these factors could result in the
City receiving less Pledged Excise Tax revenues than anticipated. For example, during periods in
which economic activity declines, Local Sales Taxes are likely to decline as compared to an earlier
year. In addition, Pledged Excise Taxes are dependent on the volume of the transactions subject
to the tax. From time to time, proposals have been made by the Utah State Legislature to remove
certain types of purchases from the sales and use taxes or to change the method of distributing the
sales and use taxes. See “SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2021A BONDS —State Pledge of
Nonimpairment” above. In addition, the State (like many other states) has recognized the potential
reduction in sales tax revenues as a result of purchases made through the internet and other non-
traditional means. The City cannot predict what impact these items may have on the Pledged
Excise Taxes it receives.
THE SERIES 2021A BONDS ARE LIMITED OBLIGATIONS
The Series 2021A Bonds are special limited obligations of the City, payable solely from
the Revenues, moneys, securities and funds pledged therefor in the Indenture. The Series 2021A
Bonds do not constitute general obligation indebtedness or a pledge of the ad valorem taxing power
or the full faith and credit of the City, and are not obligations of the State or any other agency or
other political subdivision or entity of the State. The City will not mortgage or grant any security
interest in the improvements refinanced with the proceeds of the Series 2021A Bonds or any
portion thereof to secure payment of the Series 2021A Bonds.
LIMITATION ON INCREASING RATES FOR PLEDGED EXCISE TAXES
The City currently either levies the maximum tax rate (taking into account any credit for
franchise fees) allowed under State law for all component taxes making up the Pledged Excise
Taxes or is limited by contract and by State law in its ability to increase franchise fees. No
assurance can be given that the Pledged Excise Taxes will remain sufficient for the payment of the
Principal or interest on the Series 2021A Bonds and the City is limited by State law in its ability
to increase the rate of such Pledged Excise Taxes.
POSSIBLE USE OF SPECIAL REVENUES TO MEET ADDITIONAL BONDS TEST; RELIANCE ON RATING
AGENCIES
In determining the Maximum Annual Debt Service for purposes of meeting the coverage
requirements under the Indenture in order to issue Additional Bonds, the City, at its option, may
apply Special Revenues up to a certain amount as an assumed reduction in Debt Service on an
- 24 -
Outstanding Series of Bonds. See “THE SERIES 2021A BONDS – Additional Bonds” herein. As a
condition (among others) to including Special Revenues for this purpose, each Rating Agency then
maintaining a rating on any Outstanding Bonds must confirm the rating on the Outstanding Bonds.
Owners of the Series 2021A Bonds will be relying on Rating Agencies’ approval with respect to
the inclusion by the City of Special Revenues in the determination of Maximum Annual Debt
Service with respect to any future Additional Bonds, if such Special Revenues are pledged to such
Bonds. Additionally, the inclusion of Special Revenues could potentially dilute the coverage ratio
of Pledged Revenues to Maximum Annual Debt Service. The City currently has no plans to apply
Special Revenues for a Series of Bonds.
POTENTIAL IMPACT OF THE CORONAVIRUS
The recent outbreak of COVID-19 and its spread, which has been designated a global
pandemic by the World Health Organization, is negatively impacting local, state and global
economies, as governments, businesses, and citizens react to, plan for, and try to prevent or slow
further transmission of the virus. Financial markets, including the stock markets in the United
States and globally, have seen significant recent volatility and declines that have been attributed
to COVID-19 concerns. [On March 6, 2020, as part of the State’s response to address the global
disease outbreak, the Governor declared a state of emergency. On March 13, 2020, a national
emergency was declared. The City declared a state of local emergency on March 11, 2020. Since
then, the City has slowly loosened restrictions but continues to be on an “orange” (moderate risk)
phase of response to COVID-19, while the rest of the State has moved to the “yellow” (low risk)
or “green” (new normal) phases, as further described on the State’s Health Guidance System on
the State’s website.] See “RECENT DEVELOPMENTS–COVID-19” for additional information.
CLIMATE CHANGE
Climate change caused by human activities may have adverse effects on the City. As
greenhouse gas emissions continue to accumulate in the atmosphere as a result of economic
activity, climate change is expected to intensify, increasing the frequency, severity and timing of
extreme weather events such as coastal storm surges, drought, wildfires, floods and heat waves,
and raising sea levels. The future fiscal impact of climate change on the City is difficult to predict,
but it could be significant and it could have a material adverse effect on the City’s finances by
requiring greater expenditures to counteract the effects of climate change or by changing the
business and activities of City residents. The City considers the potential effects of climate change
in its planning.
CYBERSECURITY
The risk of cyberattacks against commercial enterprises, including those operated for a
governmental purpose, has become more prevalent in recent years. At least one of the rating
agencies factors the risk of such an attack into its ratings analysis, recognizing that a cyberattack
could affect liquidity, public policy and constituent confidence, and ultimately credit quality. A
cyberattack could cause the informational systems of the City to be compromised and could limit
operational capacity, for short or extended lengths of time and could bring about the release of
- 25 -
sensitive and private information. Additionally, other potential negative consequences include
data loss or compromise, diversion of resources to prevent future incidences and reputational
damage. To date, the City has not been the subject of a successful cyberattack. The City believes
it has made all reasonable efforts to ensure that any such attack is not successful and that the
information systems of the City are secure. However, there can be no assurance that a cyberattack
will not occur in a manner resulting in damage to the City’s information systems or other
challenges. The City has insurance coverage for cyber liability. See “THE CITY–Insurance
Coverage” herein.
THE CITY
CITY OFFICIALS
The City has a Council-Mayor form of government. The City Council consists of seven
members, who are elected by voters within seven geographic districts of approximately equal
population. The Mayor is elected at large by the voters of the City and is charged with the
executive and administrative duties of the government.
The seven-member, part-time City Council is charged with the responsibility of performing
the legislative functions of the City. The City Council performs three primary functions: it passes
laws for the City, adopts the City budget and provides administrative oversight by conducting
management and operational audits of City departments.

CITY FUND STRUCTURE; ACCOUNTING BASIS
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered
to be a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for by providing a
separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund balance or net
assets, revenues, and expenditures or expenses. The various funds are grouped by type in the basic
financial statements.
Revenues and expenditures are recognized using the modified accrual basis of accounting
in all governmental funds. Revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they
become both measurable and available. “Measurable” means that amounts can be reasonably
determined within the current period. “Available” means that amounts are collectible within the
current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. The
City uses 60 days as a cutoff for meeting the available criterion. Property taxes are considered
“measurable” when levied and available when collected and held by Salt Lake County. Any
amounts not available are recorded as deferred revenue. Franchise taxes are considered
“measurable” when collected and held by the utility company, and are recognized as revenue at
that time. Other revenues that are determined to be susceptible to accrual include grants-in-aid
earned and other intergovernmental revenues, charges for services, interest, assessments, interfund
- 27 -
service charges, and proceeds of the sale of property. Property taxes and assessments are recorded
as receivables when assessed; however, they are reported as deferred revenue until the “available”
criterion has been met. Sales and use taxes collected by the State and remitted to the City within
the “available” time period are recognized as revenue. Revenues collected in advance are deferred
and recognized in the period to which they apply.
In proprietary funds, revenues and expenses are recognized using the accrual basis of
accounting. Revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they are earned and
become measurable and expenses are recognized in the period incurred.
FINANCIAL CONTROLS
The City utilizes a computerized financial accounting system which includes a system of
budgetary controls. State law requires budgets to be controlled by individual departments, but the
City also maintains computerized control by major categories within departments. These
computerized controls are such that a requisition cannot be entered into the purchasing system
unless the appropriated funds are available. The system checks for sufficient funds again, prior to
the purchase order being issued, and again before the payment check is issued. Voucher payments
are also controlled by the computer for sufficient appropriations.
BUDGET AND APPROPRIATION PROCESS
The budget and appropriation process of the City is governed by the Uniform Fiscal
Procedures Act for Utah Cities, Title 10, Chapter 6, of the Utah Code (the “Fiscal Procedures
Act”). Pursuant to the Fiscal Procedures Act, the budget officer of the City is required to prepare
budgets for the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds and Capital
Improvement Fund. These budgets are to provide a complete financial plan for the budget (ensuing
fiscal) year. Each budget is required to specify, in tabular form, estimates of anticipated revenues
and appropriations for expenditures. Under the Fiscal Procedures Act, the total of anticipated
revenues must equal the total of appropriated expenditures.
On or before the first regular meeting of the City Council in May of each year, the budget
officer is required to submit to the City Council tentative budgets for all funds for the Fiscal Year
commencing July 1. Various actual and estimated budget data are required to be set forth in the
tentative budgets. The budget officer may revise the budget request submitted by the heads of City
departments, but must file these submissions with the City Council together with the tentative
budget. The budget officer is required to estimate in the tentative budget the revenue from
nonproperty tax sources available for each fund and the revenue from general property taxes
required by each fund. The tentative budget is then provisionally adopted by the City Council,
with any amendments or revisions that the City Council deems advisable prior to the public
hearings on the tentative budget. After public notice and hearing, the tentative budget is adopted
by the City Council, subject to further amendment or revisions by the City Council prior to
adoption of the final budget.
Prior to June 30th of each year, the final budgets for all funds are adopted by the City
Council. The Fiscal Procedures Act prohibits the City Council from making any appropriation in
- 28 -
the final budget of any fund in excess of the estimated expendable revenue of such fund. The
adopted final budget is subject to amendment by the City Council during the Fiscal Year.
However, in order to increase the budget total of any fund, public notice and hearing must be
provided. Intra- and inter-department transfers of appropriation balances are permitted upon
compliance with the Fiscal Procedures Act.
The amount set forth in the final budget as the total amount of estimated revenue from
property taxes constitutes the basis for determining the property tax levy to be set by the City
Council for the succeeding tax year.
INSURANCE COVERAGE
The City is largely self-insured for general liability exposures, except for liability incurred
on premises owned, rented, or occupied by the Department of Airports (the “Airport”). The City

property loss above the limits and below the deductibles. The operating departments of the General
Fund or proprietary funds assume financial responsibility for risk retained by the City for property
damage.
The Airport is covered by a separate all risk Property Insurance policy with a $500,000,000
limit, subject to sub-limits and a $100,000 deductible. Locations covered include Salt Lake City
International Airport, South Valley Regional Airport, and Tooele Valley Airport. Boiler and
machinery carries a deductible of $100,000. Flood carries a sub-limit of $150,000,000 and Earth
movement carries sub-limit of $100,000,000 with a 2% deductible per unit, subject to a $100,000

Windstorm or hail carries a $500,000,000 limit, subject to a minimum $100,000 deductible per
occurrence. Time element including business interruption, extra expense, rental value, and rental
income is covered at $200,000,000 with a $100,000 deductible. Sub-limits apply for debris
removal ($25,000,000), valuable papers and records ($25,000,000), errors and omissions
($10,000,000), and named storm ($500,000,000).
- 29 -
The Treasurer, Deputy Treasurer, and Chief Financial Officer are each covered under
$10,000,000 public official bonds. The City also has a Government Crime policy covering (1)
employee theft with a $1,000,000 limit and $20,000 deductible; (2) forgery or alteration with a
$25,000 limit and $1,000 deductible; (3) theft of money and securities with a $50,000 limit and
$2,500 deductible; (4) robbery or safe burglary with a $50,000 limit and $2,500 deductible; (5)

The City purchases excess workers’ compensation insurance with a $30,000,000 limit and
a $750,000 self-insured retention per occurrence. The City is self-insured for losses above the
limits and below the deductibles. Further, the City is self-insured for unemployment. The Risk
Management Fund (an internal service fund) has been established to pay these claims along with
health insurance premiums and certain administrative expenses. During the past three fiscal years,
there have been no settlements that exceeded the self-insured retentions.

FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2020 – Notes to Financial Statements – Note 11 – Risk
Management.”
INVESTMENT POLICY
City Policy. It is the policy of the City to invest public funds in accordance with the
principles of sound treasury management and in compliance with State and local laws, regulations,
and other policies governing the investment of public funds, specifically, according to the terms
and conditions of the State Money Management Act of 1974 and Rules of the State Money
Management Council as currently amended (the “Money Management Act”), and the City’s own
written investment policy. The following investment objectives, in order of priority, are met when
investing public funds: safety of principal, need for liquidity, and maximum yield on investments
consistent with the first two objectives.
The City may use investment advisers to conduct investment transactions on its behalf as
permitted by the Money Management Act and local ordinance or policy. Investment advisers must
be certified by the Director of the Utah State Division of Securities of the Department of
Commerce (the “Director”). Broker/dealers and agents who desire to become certified dealers
must be certified by the Director and meet the requirements of the Money Management Act. Only
qualified depositories as certified by Utah’s Commissioner of Financial Institutions are eligible to
receive and hold deposits of public funds. The State Money Management Council issues a
quarterly list of certified investment advisers, certified dealers, and qualified depositories
authorized by State statute to conduct transactions with public treasurers. Transactions involving
authorized deposits or investments of public funds may be conducted only through issuers of
securities authorized by Section 51-7-11(3) of the Utah Code, qualified depositories included in
the current State list, and certified dealers included in the current State list. The City Treasurer
must take delivery of all investments purchased, including those purchased through a certified
investment adviser. This may be accomplished by the City Treasurer taking physical delivery of
the security or delivering the security to a bank or trust company designated by the City Treasurer
for safekeeping. The City Treasurer may use a qualified depository bank for safekeeping securities
- 30 -
or maintain an account with a money center bank for the purpose of settling investment
transactions and safekeeping and collecting those investments.
City policy provides that not more than 25% of total City funds or 25% of the qualified
depository’s allotment, whichever is less, can be invested in any one qualified depository. Not
more than 20% of total City funds may be invested in any one certified out-of-state depository
institution. However, there is no limitation placed on the amount invested with the Utah Public
Treasurer’s Investment Fund (“PTIF”) and other money market mutual funds, provided that the
overall standards of investments achieve the City’s policy objectives.
All funds pledged or otherwise dedicated to the payment of interest on and principal of
bonds or notes issued by the City are invested in accordance with the terms and borrowing
instruments applicable to such bonds or notes. City policy also provides that the remaining term
to maturity of an investment may not exceed the period of availability of the funds invested. The
investment of City funds cannot be of a speculative nature.
The City’s entire portfolio is currently in compliance with all of the provisions of the
Money Management Act.
The Utah Public Treasurers’ Investment Fund. The PTIF is a local government investment
fund, established in 1981, and managed by the State Treasurer. Currently the City has
approximately $[1.1 billion] on deposit in the PTIF, representing a substantial portion of the City’s
funds. All investments in the PTIF must comply with the Money Management Act and rules of
the State Money Management Council. The PTIF invests primarily in money market securities.
Securities in the PTIF include certificates of deposit, commercial paper, short-term corporate
notes, obligations of the U.S. Treasury and securities of certain agencies of the federal
government. By policy, the maximum weighted average adjusted life of the portfolio is not to
exceed 90 days and the maximum final maturity of any security purchased by the PTIF is limited
to five years. Safekeeping and audit controls for all investments owned by the PTIF must comply
with the Money Management Act.
All securities purchased are delivered versus payment to the custody of the State Treasurer
or the State Treasurer’s safekeeping bank, assuring a perfected interest in the securities. Securities
owned by the PTIF are completely segregated from securities owned by the State. The State has
no claim on assets owned by the PTIF except for any investment of State moneys in the PTIF.
Deposits are not insured or otherwise guaranteed by the State.
Investment activity of the State Treasurer in the management of the PTIF is reviewed
monthly by the State Money Management Council and is audited by the State Auditor.
The information in this section concerning the current status of the PTIF has been obtained
from sources the City believes to be reliable, but the City takes no responsibility for the accuracy
thereof.

Equivalents and Investments” below.
EMPLOYEE WORKFORCE AND RETIREMENT SYSTEM; POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
Employee Workforce and Retirement System. The City currently employs approximately
[2,954] full-time employees and approximately [387] hourly and part-time employees for a total
employment of approximately [3,341] employees. The City participates in three cost-sharing
multiple-employer public employee retirement systems and one multiple-employer agent system
which are defined benefit retirement plans covering public employees of the State and employees
of participating local governmental entities (the “Systems”). The Systems are administered under
the direction of the Utah State Retirement Board whose members are appointed by the Governor
of the State. See “APPENDIX B – SALT LAKE CITY CORPORATION FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE
FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2019 – Notes to Financial Statements – Note 6 – Long-Term
Obligations,” “– Note 12 – Pension Plans” and “– Note 13 – Defined Contribution Savings Plans.”
Retirement Liability. The City participates with the Utah Retirement System (“URS”).
URS is funded and administered by the State. Each year, as approved by the State Legislature,
URS sets rates, enacts rules, and implements policies related to the pensions and benefits the City
retirees receive. Starting in Fiscal Year 2015, GASB Statement Number 68 requires URS to pass
on pension and retirement liability to public entities it serves, including the City. Working with
the City’s independent auditors and State specialists, this liability has been recorded on the City’s
financial statements for the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2020 in the amount of $__________.
No Other Post-Employment Benefits. The City does not offer other post-employment
benefits.

FUTURE DEBT PLANS
The City is considering issuing Additional Bonds to pay for various capital improvement
projects. The par amount is estimated at $58 million.
A special bond election held on November 6, 2018 gave voter authorization to the City to
issue up to $87 million in general obligation bonds to fund all or a portion of the costs of improving
various streets and roads throughout the City and related infrastructure improvements. The City
currently has approximately $46,700,000 of authorized, but unissued, bonds from the November
6, 2018 voted authorization, which the City anticipates issuing within the next 5-6 years, including
approximately $20,000,000 later this year.
The City will issue approximately $1.15 billion in additional general airport revenue bonds
in the future to complete the $4.1 billion airport reconstruction program. The reconstruction
program is currently expected to be completed by 2024.
The City applied for a $7,000,000 infrastructure loan to finance a portion of the cost of a
neighborhood parking structure through a revolving fund called the Utah State Infrastructure Bank
Fund. The loan will bear interest of 1.96%, and the term is 15 years. To secure the repayment of
the loan, the City will pledge the funds allocated by the State of Utah, by HB 244 (First Class
County Highway Road Funds.) The City Council is yet to approve the resolution authorizing the
loan.
Public utilities revenue bonds of approximately $406 million are expected to be issued over
the next seven years to fund the Department of Public Utilities capital improvement program. A
major focus of the Department’s budget is the rehabilitation and replacement of aging
infrastructure. The largest planned projects are the new water reclamation facility to meet
regulatory requirements, improvements to three water treatment plants, phased construction of a
new water conveyance line to expand service and provide redundancy, and water, sewer and storm
water utility infrastructure work necessitated by street improvements projects pursuant to the
City’s passage of the general obligation bond for that purpose.
The City analyzes the potential value of refunding bond issues, particularly during periods
of lower than normal interest rates or on an as needed basis and may issue refunding bonds at such
times.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS {TO BE UPDATED.}
General. Fiscal year 2020 general fund expenses are expected to end very close to budget.
Due to COVID-19 and the March 2020 earthquake (see below) there have been unusual and
unexpected changes in spending. The administration and City Council have provided additional
emergency funding and it is expected that all City departments will be very close to budget at
June 30, 2020.
Overall revenue for fiscal year 2020 is projected to be $5.0 million under budget. Property
tax revenues are expected to be higher than budgeted due to an increase in personal property tax
- 34 -
collections of $1.0 million. Total sales tax revenues are approximately $318,000 under budget.
Franchise tax, interest income and fines are under budget due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fund balance for the end of fiscal year 2019 was $67.2 million or 20.85% of total revenues
for the year. The City Council and administration have an internal goal to keep the fund balance
above 14% of total revenue for each fiscal year. In fiscal year 2018 the total fund balance was
$43.5 million (16.0%) and a conservative fund balance estimate for fiscal year 2020 is $47.5
million (14.5%).
Fiscal year 2020 budget grew by approximately 10%, an increase of $28.4 million as
compared to the previous year. Major general fund expense increases were $5.7 million, mostly
associated with salary and benefit cost increases, 66 new positions at a budgeted cost of $3.4
million, a transfer of 68 police officers from the Salt Lake City International Airport at a cost of
$7.7 million funded by the Airport, $4.7 million of transportation initiatives funded through a new
sales tax and an increase in the transfer to the fleet fund of just over $4.3 million.
COVID-19. As the regional employment center, tourism destination, and entertainment
hub for the State, the City has experienced a significant loss of revenues in the wake of the
COVID-19 pandemic. General fund estimated budget to actual losses from March through
December 31, 2020 exceed $14.1 million. The City will incur an estimated $7.1 million in
unbudgeted local expenses in response to this crisis. City revenue analysts are closely monitoring
economic indicators and revenue receipts to quickly respond should additional shortfalls become
apparent.
In response to the impact of COVID-19, the City implemented a hiring freeze, ceased any
planned raises, and made severe cuts to programs. Many departments have been able to
successfully implement telework with little to no impact on City services. For those departments
with employees who can work remotely, there has been a decrease of expenditures and it is
expected that some departments will have expenditures that are under adopted budget. There has
been an increased need for first responders, specifically police, fire, dispatch and public services
requiring additional costs and overtime.
The City has received an initial installment of $5.9 million from the Coronavirus Aid,
Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act funding allocated to the State and/or County and
may receive an additional two equal installments of CARES funding in July and October 2020, if
there is any funding remaining. It has not yet been determined if the State or the County will
provide that support. The maximum subsequent allocations would equate to $11.6 million if the
current formula remains, bringing the total sub-allocation of federal funds to the City to $17.4
million.

March 2020 Earthquake. On March 18, 2020 a 5.7 magnitude earthquake occurred in the
township of Magna (located approximately 15 miles west of the City). This event, as well as
subsequent aftershocks caused significant damage to several City buildings, with total damages
estimated at approximately $10,558,600. This projection could change as adjusters and engineers

complete their damage assessments and the City begins to receive repair bids. Other financial
impacts to the City include unexpected overtime due to increased need for first responders,
specifically police, fire, dispatch and public services. The City expects all earthquake-related
property damages as well as business interruption expenses to be covered by the City’s property
insurance less a $100,000 deductible. See “–Insurance Coverage” above.

TAX TREATMENT
FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION
Interest on the Series 2021A Bonds is includible in gross income for federal income
purposes. Ownership of the Series 2021A Bonds may result in other federal income tax
- 40 -
consequences to certain taxpayers. Bondholders should consult their tax advisors with respect to
the inclusion of interest on the Series 2021A Bonds in gross income for federal income tax
purposes and any collateral tax consequences.
The City may deposit moneys or securities in escrow in such amount and manner as to
cause the Series 2021A Bonds to be deemed to be no longer outstanding under the Indenture (a
“defeasance”). A defeasance of the Series 2021A Bonds may be treated as an exchange of the
Series 2021A Bonds by the holders thereof and may therefore result in gain or loss to the holders.
Bond holders should consult their own tax advisors about the consequences if any of such a
defeasance. The City is required to provide notice of defeasance of the Series 2021A Bonds as a
material event under the Agreement (defined below). The Trustee is also required to provide notice
of defeasance to holders in accordance with the Indenture.
UTAH INCOME TAXATION
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, under the existing laws of the State of Utah, as presently
enacted and construed, interest on the Series 2021A Bonds is exempt from taxes imposed by the
Utah Individual Income Tax Act. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion with respect to any other
taxes imposed by the State or any political subdivision thereof. Ownership of the Series 2021A
Bonds may result in other state and local tax consequences to certain taxpayers. Bond Counsel
expresses no opinion regarding any such collateral consequences arising with respect to the Series
2021A Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Series 2021A Bonds should consult their tax advisors
regarding the applicability of any such state and local taxes.
NO DEFAULTED BONDS
The City has never failed to pay principal and interest when due on any of its bonds, notes
or other financial obligations.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT
The City will enter into a Continuing Disclosure Agreement (the “Agreement”), in
substantially the form attached hereto as APPENDIX F, for the benefit of the beneficial owners of
the Series 2021A Bonds to send certain information annually and to provide notice of certain
events to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board pursuant to the requirements of
Section (b)(5) of Rule 15c2-12 (the “Rule”) adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “Commission”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
A failure by the City to comply with the Agreement will not constitute a default under the
Indenture and beneficial owners of the Series 2021A Bonds are limited to the remedies described
in the Agreement. A failure by the City to comply with the Agreement must be reported in
accordance with the Rule and must be considered by any broker, dealer or municipal securities
dealer before recommending the purchase or sale of the Series 2021A Bonds in the secondary
market. Consequently, such a failure may adversely affect the transferability and liquidity of the
Series 2021A Bonds and their market price. See “FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
- 41 -
AGREEMENT” attached hereto as APPENDIX F for the information to be provided, the events which
will be noticed on an occurrence basis and the other terms of the Agreement, including termination,
amendment and remedies.
The City has entered into a number of continuing disclosure undertakings pursuant to the
Rule with respect to the bonds it has issued and has contracted with a number of dissemination
agents to file annual information and notices of certain events on behalf of the City. In the previous
five years the City provided its annual financial information and audited financial statements to
the applicable dissemination agent in advance of the deadline specified in the applicable continuing
disclosure undertaking. Dissemination agents for certain of the City’s bonds filed such information
late; however, the information was filed within 10 days of the deadline.
Additionally, with respect to certain water and sewer bonds, during the previous five years
the City filed the audited financial statements of the City’s utilities system, but did not include the
audited financial statements of the City. Corrective filings have been made and the City has taken
steps to ensure that in the future the City’s audited financial statements will be filed for such water
and sewer revenue bonds as required. At the time of the initial corrective filings the City
determined that such filings were immaterial with respect to certain maturities of the water and
sewer revenue bonds that had already matured, and corrective filing were not made for such
maturities. In connection with a prior purchase of certain of the City’s general obligation bonds,
the purchaser requested that corrective filings be made for such previously matured water and
sewer revenue bonds. The City complied with such request despite having determined that such
filings were not material.
The City has adopted continuing disclosure policies and procedures to help ensure
compliance with its continuing disclosure undertakings.
UNDERWRITING
_______________, as underwriter (the “Underwriter”), has agreed, subject to certain
conditions, to purchase all of the Series 2021A Bonds from the City at an aggregate price of
$__________ (being an amount equal to the par amount of the Series 2021A Bonds, plus original
issue premium of $__________, less an Underwriter’s discount of $__________) and to make a
public offering of the Series 2021A Bonds.
Although the Underwriter expects to maintain a secondary market in the Series 2021A
Bonds after the initial offering, no guarantee can be given as to the existence of such a secondary
market or its maintenance by the Underwriter or others.
RATING
As of the date of this Official Statement, the Series 2021A Bonds have been rated “____”
and “____” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and S&P Ratings, respectively.
Such ratings reflect only the view of such organization and any desired explanation of the
significance of such rating should be obtained from the rating agency furnishing the same.
- 42 -
Generally, a rating agency bases its rating on the information and materials furnished to it and on
investigations, studies and assumptions of its own. There is no assurance such rating will continue
for any given period of time or that such rating will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely
by the rating agency providing such rating if, in the judgment of the rating agency, circumstances
so warrant. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of such rating may have an adverse effect
on the market price of the Series 2021A Bonds.
ESCROW VERIFICATION
_______________, __________, __________, Certified Public Accountants, will verify
the accuracy of the mathematical computations concerning the adequacy of the maturing principal
amounts of and interest earned on the obligations of the United States of America, together with
other escrowed moneys, to pay when due pursuant to prior redemption the Principal and
Redemption Price of, and interest on, the Refunded Bonds. Such verification shall be based in
part upon information supplied by the Underwriter.
MUNICIPAL ADVISOR
The City has entered into an agreement with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated
(the “Municipal Advisor”), whereunder the Municipal Advisor provides financial
recommendations and guidance to the City with respect to preparation for sale of the Series 2021A
Bonds, timing of the sale, tax-exempt bond market conditions, costs of issuance and other factors
related to the sale of the Series 2021A Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has participated in the
preparation of and provided information for certain portions of the Official Statement, but has not
audited, authenticated or otherwise verified the information set forth in the Official Statement, or
any other related information available to the City, with respect to accuracy and completeness of
disclosure of such information, and the Municipal Advisor makes no guaranty, warranty or other
representation respecting accuracy and completeness of the Official Statement or any other matter
related to the Official Statement.
LEGAL MATTERS
LITIGATION
The City Attorney reports the following matters involving potential financial liability of
the City:
Lawsuits are periodically filed against the City and/or its employees, involving tort and
civil rights matters. The City has a statutory obligation to defend and indemnify its officers and
employees in relation to lawsuits arising from acts or failures to act of the officers or employees
while in the scope and course of employment.
The City maintains a governmental immunity fund for claims against the City. In the event
the fund is not sufficient to pay any outstanding judgment or judgments, the City has the ability
- 43 -
under State law to levy a limited ad valorem tax to pay such judgments. This tax levy is separate
and apart from the other taxing powers of the City.
The City also has contract claims, condemnation proceedings and environmental matters,
none of which is expected to materially adversely affect the City’s financial condition.
A non-litigation certificate or opinion executed by the City Attorney, dated the date of
closing, will be provided stating, among other things, that to the best of her knowledge, after due
inquiry, no litigation, with merit, in the State or federal court has been served on the City or is, to
the best of her knowledge, threatened, challenging the creation, organization or existence of the
City, or the titles of its officers to their respective offices, or seeking to restrain or enjoin the
issuance, sale or delivery of the Series 2021A Bonds, or for the purpose of restraining or enjoining
the levy and collection of taxes or assessments by the City, or directly or indirectly contesting or
affecting the proceedings or the authority by which the Series 2021A Bonds are issued, the legality
of the purpose for which the Series 2021A Bonds are issued, or the validity of the Series 2021A
Bonds, or the issuance thereof.
APPROVAL OF LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The authorization and issuance of the Series 2021A Bonds are subject to the approval of
Chapman and Cutler LLP, Bond Counsel to the City. Certain legal matters will be passed upon
for the City by the City Attorney and by Chapman and Cutler LLP, as the City’s Disclosure
Counsel. The Underwriter is being represented by its counsel, _______________. The approving
opinion of Bond Counsel will be delivered with the Series 2021A Bonds in substantially the form
set forth in APPENDIX D of this Official Statement and will be made available upon request from
the contact persons as indicated under “INTRODUCTION—Contact Person.”

APPENDIX D
PROPOSED FORM OF OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL
[TO BE PROVIDED.]
E-1
APPENDIX E
PROVISIONS REGARDING BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM
The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, NY, will act as securities depository
for the Series 2021A Bonds. The Series 2021A Bonds will be issued as fully-registered securities
registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be
requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Series 2021A Bond
certificate will be issued for each maturity of the Series 2021A Bonds, each in the aggregate
principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC.
DTC, the world’s largest depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under
the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York
Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the
meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant
to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides
asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and
municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC’s
participants (“Direct Participants”) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade
settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited
securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct
Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates.
Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust
companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding
company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing
Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its
regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and
non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that
clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or
indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). DTC has a Standard & Poor’s rating of AA+. The DTC rules
applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More
information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com.
Purchases of the Series 2021A Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through
Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Series 2021A Bonds on DTC’s records. The
ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Series 2021A Bond (“Beneficial Owner”) is
in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records. Beneficial Owners will not
receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however,
expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic
statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial
Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Series 2021A Bonds
are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on
behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their
ownership interests in the Series 2021A Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry
system for the Series 2021A Bonds is discontinued.
E-2
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Series 2021A Bonds deposited by Direct Participants
with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other
name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of the Series
2021A Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC
nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual
Beneficial Owners of the Series 2021A Bonds; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct
Participants to whose accounts such Series 2021A Bonds are credited, which may or may not be
the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping
account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct
Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to
Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or
regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of the Series
2021A Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment transmission to them of notices of
significant events with respect to the Series 2021A Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults,
and proposed amendments to the Series 2021A Bond documents. For example, Beneficial Owners
of the Series 2021A Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Series 2021A Bonds
for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative,
Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the Series 2021A Bond
Registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them.
Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Series 2021A Bonds within
an issue are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of
each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with
respect to the Series 2021A Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with
DTC’s MMI procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an omnibus proxy to the City as
soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or
voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Series 2021A Bonds are credited
on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy).
As long as the book-entry system is in effect, redemption proceeds, distributions, and
dividend payments on the Series 2021A Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee
as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct
Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detailed information from
the City or the Paying Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown
on DTC’s records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing
instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of
customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such
Participant and not of DTC, the Paying Agent, or the City, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds,
distributions, and dividend payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested
by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the City or the Paying Agent,
disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and
E-3
disbursement of such payments to Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and
Indirect Participants.
DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Series 2021A
Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the City or the Paying Agent. Under such
circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained, Series 2021A
Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
The City may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC
(or a successor securities depository). In that event, Series 2021A Bond certificates will be printed
and delivered to DTC.
The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been
obtained from sources that the City believes to be reliable, but the City takes no responsibility for
the accuracy thereof.

the effect of requiring the offer or sale of the Series 2021A Bonds to be registered

issued in connection with or as part of the issuance of the Series 2021A Bonds to
be so registered or the Indenture to be qualified as an indenture under the Trust

Series 2021A
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as disclosure counsel to Salt Lake City, Utah (the “Issuer”) in connection
with the issuance of $__________ , aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s Federally Taxable
Sales and Excise Tax Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2021A (the “Series 2021A Bonds”) issued
on this date by the Issuer. The Bonds are issued pursuant to a Master Trust Indenture, dated as of
September 1, 2004, as heretofore amended and supplemented (the “Master Indenture”), between
the City and Zions Bancorporation, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), and as further
amended and supplemented by a __________ Supplemental Trust Indenture, dated as of October
1, 2021 (the “__________ Supplemental Indenture” and, collectively with the Master Indenture,
the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and the Trustee.
Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings specified in the
Official Statement, dated __________, 2021, relating to the Bonds (the “Official Statement”).
Based upon our examination of such documents and questions of law as we have deemed
relevant in connection with the offering and sale of the Bonds under the circumstances described
in the Preliminary Official Statement dated __________, 2021, (the “Preliminary Official
Statement”) and in the Official Statement relating to the Bonds, we are of the opinion that, under
existing law, the Series 2021A Bonds are not required to be registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and the Indenture is not required to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act
of 1939, as amended.
In rendering this opinion, we have relied upon certifications of the Issuer with respect to
certain material facts within the knowledge of the Issuer. Our opinion represents our legal
B-2 Purchase Contract (refunding)
judgment based upon our review of the laws and the facts that we deem relevant to render such
opinion, and is not a guarantee of result. This opinion is solely for your benefit as purchaser of
the Series 2021A Bonds. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation
to revise or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come
to our attention or any changes in law that may hereafter occur.
This opinion is furnished by us as bond counsel. No attorney-client relationship has existed
or exists between our firm and yourselves in connection with the Series 2021A Bonds or by virtue
of this opinion. This opinion is not intended to be relied upon by owners of the Series 2021A
Bonds or by any other party to whom it is not specifically addressed.

Federally Taxable Sales and Excise
Tax Revenue Refunding Bonds
Series 2021A
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as disclosure counsel to Salt Lake City, Utah (the “Issuer”) in connection
with the issuance of $__________ , aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s Federally Taxable
Sales and Excise Tax Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2021A (the “Series 2021A Bonds”),
issued on this date by the Issuer. The Bonds are issued pursuant to a Master Trust Indenture, dated
as of September 1, 2004, as heretofore amended and supplemented (the “Master Indenture”),
between the City and Zions Bancorporation, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), and
as further amended and supplemented by a __________ Supplemental Trust Indenture, dated as of
October 1, 2021 (the “__________ Supplemental Indenture” and, collectively with the Master
Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and the Trustee. The Series 2021A Bonds are
being issued pursuant to the terms of the Bond Purchase Contract, dated __________, 2021 (the
“Purchase Contract”), between the Issuer and ___________________ (the “Underwriter”).
In accordance with our understanding with the Issuer, we have reviewed the official
statement of the Issuer with respect to the Series 2021A Bonds, dated _________, 2021 (the
“Official Statement”), certificates of officers of the Issuer and other appropriate persons, our
opinions as bond counsel, and such other records, reports, opinions and documents, and we have
made such investigations of law, as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the conclusion
hereinafter expressed. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed thereto in the Official Statement. As to facts material to the views expressed herein, we
have, with your consent, relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers or
other representatives of the Issuer, including the representations and warranties of the Issuer in the
Purchase Contract.
In arriving at the conclusion hereinafter expressed, we are not expressing any opinion or
view on, and with your permission are assuming and relying on, the validity, accuracy and
sufficiency of the records, reports, documents, certificates and opinions referred to above
B-4 Purchase Contract (refunding)
(including the accuracy of all factual matters represented and legal conclusions contained therein,
including, without limitation, any representations and legal conclusions regarding the due
authorization, issuance, delivery, validity and enforceability of the Series 2021A Bonds, the tax
treatment of interest on the Series 2021A Bonds for federal income tax purposes, and the
application of Series 2021A Bond proceeds in accordance with the authorization therefor). We
have assumed that all records, reports, documents, certificates and opinions that we have reviewed,
and the signatures thereto, are genuine.
We are not passing upon, and do not assume any responsibility for, the accuracy,
completeness or fairness of any of the statements contained in the Official Statement and make no
representation that we have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of any
such statements. In our capacity as disclosure counsel to the Issuer, to assist it in discharging its
responsibility with respect to the Official Statement, we participated in conferences and
correspondence with your representatives, representatives of the Issuer and other persons involved
in the preparation of information for the Official Statement, during which the contents of the
Official Statement and related matters were discussed and revised. The purpose of our professional
engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters set forth in the Official Statement, and
we have not undertaken any obligation to verify independently any of the factual matters set forth
therein. Moreover, many of the determinations required to be made in the preparation of the
Official Statement involve matters of a non-legal nature. Based on our participation in the above-
mentioned conferences and correspondence, and in reliance thereon and on our limited review of
the records, reports, documents, certificates, statements, representations, warranties, opinions and
matters mentioned above, without independent verification, we advise you as a matter of fact and
not opinion that, during the course of our role as disclosure counsel to the Issuer with respect to
the Bonds, no facts have come to the attention of the attorneys in our firm rendering legal services
in connection with such role which caused us to believe that the Official Statement (apart from
(i) CUSIP numbers, (ii) the information relating to The Depository Trust Company and its
book-entry only system, and (iii) the financial statements or other financial, operating, statistical,
numerical or accounting data contained or incorporated therein, as to all of which we do not
express any conclusion or belief) contained as of its date or contains as of the date hereof any
untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading. No responsibility is undertaken or statement
rendered with respect to any other disclosure document, materials or activity, or as to any
information from another document or source referred to by or incorporated by reference in the
Official Statement.
By acceptance of this letter you recognize and acknowledge that: (i) the preceding
paragraph is not a legal opinion but is rather in the nature of negative observations based on certain
limited activities performed by specific lawyers in our firm in our role as disclosure counsel to the
Issuer; (ii) the scope of those activities performed by us for purposes of delivering this letter was
inherently limited and does not purport to encompass all activities necessary for compliance with
applicable securities laws; (iii) those activities performed by us rely on third party representations,
warranties, certifications, statements and opinions, including and primarily, representations,
warranties and certifications made by the Issuer, and are otherwise subject to the conditions set
forth herein; (iv) we have not been engaged to act, and have not acted, as your counsel for any
B-5 Purchase Contract (refunding)
purpose in connection with the issuance of the Series 2021A Bonds; (v) no attorney-client
relationship exists or has at any time existed between us in connection with the Series 2021A
Bonds or by virtue of this letter; and (vi) this letter is based upon our review of proceedings and
other documents undertaken as part of our engagement with the Issuer, and in order to deliver this
letter we neither undertook any duties or responsibilities to you nor conducted any activities in
addition to those undertaken or conducted for the benefit of, and requested by, the Issuer.
Consequently, we make no representation that our review has been adequate for your purposes.
In further accordance with our understanding with the Issuer, we express herein no opinion
or belief with respect to the validity of the Series 2021A Bonds or the taxation thereof or of the
interest thereon, and our expression of belief with respect to the Official Statement assumes the
validity of the Series 2021A Bonds, as set forth in our separate opinion as bond counsel.
This letter is solely for the benefit of the Underwriter and may not be used, quoted, relied
upon or otherwise referred to for any other purpose or by any other person (including any person
purchasing any of the Series 2021A Bonds from the Underwriter) without our prior written
consent. This letter is given as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to revise or
supplement this letter to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention.

C-2 Purchase Contract (refunding)
they have assumed the genuineness and authenticity of all documents submitted to me or us as
originals and the conformity to original documents of documents submitted to me or us as certified
or photostatic copies. I or they have relied upon such certificates of public officials and such
certificates of officers of the City with respect to the accuracy of factual matters contained therein
as I or they have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth
and I or they know of no reason why I or they should not rely thereon. All references herein to
agreements, instruments, documents, laws, statutes, regulations, orders, writs, decrees and
injunctions are as of the date hereof. Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:
1. The City has been duly and validly created as a municipality and public body
corporate and politic existing under the laws of the State of Utah, with full power and authority
(a) to enter into, execute and deliver the Indenture, the Continuing Disclosure Agreement of the
City dated as of the date hereof (the “Continuing Disclosure Agreement”); the Escrow Agreement,
dated as of October 1, 2021 (the “LBA Escrow Agreement”), between the City [, the Local
Building Authority of Salt Lake City, Utah] and U.S. Bank National Association, as escrow agent;
the Escrow Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2021 (the “STR Escrow Agreement”), between the
City and Zions Bancorporation, National Association, as escrow agent; and the Bond Purchase
Contract, dated __________, 2021, entered into by and between the City and _______________
(the “Purchase Contract”); and (b) to perform its obligations under the Indenture, the Continuing
Disclosure Agreement, the LBA Escrow Agreement, the STR Escrow Agreement and the Purchase
Contract and to authorize and issue, sell and deliver the Series 2021A Bonds.
2. The officials of the City named in the Preliminary Official Statement relating to the
Series 2021A Bonds, dated __________, 2021 (the “Preliminary Official Statement”) and the
Official Statement relating to the Series 2021A Bonds, dated __________, 2021 (the “Official
Statement”), have been duly elected or appointed and are as of the date hereof, qualified to serve
in their respective positions.
3. The City Council has duly adopted the Resolution authorizing the execution, issuance
and delivery of the Series 2021A Bonds, the Indenture, the Continuing Disclosure Agreement, the
LBA Escrow Agreement, the STR Escrow Agreement and the Purchase Contract, and the Series
2021A Bonds, the Indenture, the Purchase Contract, LBA Escrow Agreement, the STR Escrow
Agreement and the Continuing Disclosure Agreement have each been duly authorized, executed
and delivered by the City and assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other
parties, if any, thereto, all such instruments constitute valid and binding limited obligations of the
City enforceable in accordance with their respective terms except as the enforceability thereof may
be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, or other laws affecting creditors’ rights
generally or usual equity principles in the event equitable remedies are sought.
4. The Indenture creates a valid lien and charge against the Revenues and other funds
and accounts created under the Indenture and pledged for the benefit of the payment of the Series
2021A Bonds.
5. The execution and delivery of the Indenture, the Series 2021A Bonds, the Continuing
Disclosure Agreement, the LBA Escrow Agreement, the STR Escrow Agreement and the Purchase
Contract by the City and compliance with the provisions thereof will not conflict with or constitute
C-3 Purchase Contract (refunding)
a material breach or material default under any applicable law, administrative regulation, court
order or consent decree of the State of Utah or, to my knowledge, of the United States of America
or of any department, division, agency or instrumentality of either or any ordinance, agreement,
note, resolution, indenture or other instrument of which I have knowledge to which the City is a
party or by which it is bound.
6. To the best of my knowledge, after due inquiry, there is no amendment or proposed
amendment certified for placement on a statewide ballot to the Constitution of the State of Utah
that would materially adversely affect the Series 2021A Bonds or any holder thereof in his capacity
as such or the ability of the City to perform its obligations under the Indenture, the Continuing
Disclosure Agreement, the LBA Escrow Agreement, the STR Escrow Agreement or the Purchase
Contract.
7. All approvals, consents and orders of any governmental entity, authority, board,
agency or commission having jurisdiction that would constitute conditions precedent to the
performance by the City of its obligations under the Indenture, the Series 2021A Bonds, the
Continuing Disclosure Agreement, the LBA Escrow Agreement, the STR Escrow Agreement or
the Purchase Contract have been obtained.
8. To the best of my knowledge after due inquiry, except as disclosed in the Preliminary
Official Statement and the Official Statement, no litigation in the State of Utah or federal court has
been served on the City or is threatened: (a) in any way affecting the existence of the City or
contesting or affecting the validity or authority for the issuance of the Series 2021A Bonds or the
refunding of the Refunded Bonds or seeking to restrain or enjoin the issuance or delivery of the
Series 2021A Bonds or the transactions contemplated in the Official Statement and the Indenture;
(b) contesting the validity of the Indenture, the Series 2021A Bonds, the Continuing Disclosure
Agreement, the LBA Escrow Agreement, the STR Escrow Agreement or the Purchase Contract;
(c) contesting or affecting or seeking to restrain or enjoin the collection of Revenues or other
moneys pledged or to be pledged to pay the principal of and interest on the Series 2021A Bonds
or otherwise under the Indenture or the pledge thereof; (d) contesting in any way the completeness
or accuracy of the Official Statement; or (e) contesting the power of the officials of the City or its
authority with respect to the Indenture, the Series 2021A Bonds, the Official Statement, the
Continuing Disclosure Agreement, the LBA Escrow Agreement, the STR Escrow Agreement or
the Purchase Contract.
9. While not passing upon, and not assuming responsibility for, the accuracy,
completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Preliminary Official Statement and the
Official Statement, no facts have come to my attention which lead me to believe that (apart from
the financial information, statistical data and forecasts contained therein, and information
concerning The Depository Trust Company, the Trustee and the Financial Advisor, as to which no
opinion or belief is expressed) the Preliminary Official Statement, as of its date and as of the date
of the Purchase Contract, and the Official Statement, as of its date and as of the date hereof,
contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state at its date or omits
at the date hereof to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
