Section 5. Optional Redemption
Those of
the Bonds
due on
January 1 of the years
1998
to 2006, inclusive,
shall be
subject
to redemption prior to
ma-
turity at the option of the City, in whole or in part, from any
available funds, on January 1, 1997, or on any interest payment
date thereafter, and if in part in the inverse order of maturity,
and if less than an entire maturity in integral multiples of
$5,000, selected by lot by the Bond Registrar as hereinafter
provided, at the redemption price of par and accrued interest to
the date fixed for redemption.
The City shall, at least 45 days prior to the redemp-
tion date (unless a shorter time period shall .be satisfactory to
the Bond Registrar), notify the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent
of such redemption date and of the principal amount of Bonds to
be redeemed. For purposes of any redemption of less than all of
the Bonds of a single maturity, the particular Bonds or portions
of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by lot not more than 60
days prior to the redemption date by the Bond Registrar for the
Bonds of such maturity by such method of lottery as the Bond
Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate; provided, that such
lottery shall provide for the selection for redemption of Bonds
or portions thereof so that any $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion of
a Bond shall be as likely to be called for redemption as any
other'such $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion.
-8-
•
The Bond Registrar shall promptly notify the City and
the Paying Agent in writing of the Bonds or portions of Bonds
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Bond selected for
partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.
Section 6. Redemption Procedure
Unless waived by the owner of Bonds to be redeemed,
notice of any such redemption shall be given by the Bond Regis-
trar on behalf of the City by mailing the redemption notice by
registered or certified mail not less than 30 days and not more
than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Paying
Agent and each registered owner of the Bond or Bonds to be rede-
• emed at the address shown on the Bond Register or at such other
address as is furnished in writing by such registered owner to
the Bond Registrar.
All notices of redemption shall include at least the
information as follows:
A. the redemption date;
B. the redemption price;
C. if less than all of the Bonds of a particular matu-
rity are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case
of partial redemption of Bonds within such maturity, the
respective principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed;
D. a statement that on the redemption date the redemp-
tion price will become due and payable upon each such Bond or
portion thereof called for redemption and that interest
thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date; and
E. the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for
payment of the redemption price, which place of payment shall
be the principal corporate trust office of the Paying Agent.
•
•
Prior to any redemption date, the City shall deposit
with the Paying Agent an amount of money sufficient to pay the
redemption price of all the Bonds or portions of Bonds which are
to be redeemed on that date.
Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid,
the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed shall, on the
redemption date, become due and payable at the redemption price
therein specified, -and -from and after such date (unless the City
shall default in the payment of the redemption price) such Bonds
or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Upon sur-
render of such Bonds for redemption in accordance with said no-
tice, such Bonds shall be paid by the Paying Agent at the re-
demption price. Interest due on or prior to the redemption date
shall be payable as herein provided for payment of interest.
Upon surrender for any partial redemption of any Bond, there
shall.be prepared for the registered owner a new Bond or Bonds of
the same maturity and bearing the same rate of interest in the
amount of the unpaid principal.
If any Bond or portion of Bond called for redemption
shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the
principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the redemption
date at the rate borne by the Bond or portion of Bond so called
for redemption. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall be
cancelled and destroyed by the Bond Registrar and shall not be
reissued.

Section 7. Execution; Authentication
The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the City by
the manual or facsimile signature of its Mayor and be attested by
the manual or facsimile signature of its City Clerk, as they may
determine, and shall have impressed or imprinted thereon the
corporate seal or facsimile thereof of the City. In case any
such officer whose signature shall appear on any Bond shall cease
to be such officer before the delivery of -such Bond, such signa-
ture shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes,
the same as if such officer had remained in office until de-
livery.
• All Bonds shall have thereon a certificate of authenti-
cation, substantially in the form hereinafter set forth, duly
executed by the Bond Registrar as authenticating agent of the
City and showing the date of authentication. No Bond shall be
valid or obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any secu-
rity or benefit under this Ordinance unless and until such certi-
ficate of authentication shall have been duly executed by the
Bond Registrar by manual signature, and such certificate of auth-
entication upon any such Bond shall be conclusive evidence that
such Bond has been authenticated and delivered under this Ordin-
ance. The certificate of authentication on any Bond shall be
deemed to have been executed by it if signed by an authorized
officer of the Bond Registrar, but it shall not be necessary that
the same officer sign the certificate of authentication on all of
• the Bonds issued hereunder.

Section 8. Registration of Bonds; Persons Treated as
Owners
The City shall cause the Bond Register to be kept at
the principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar, which

Registrar or such other agent as the City may designate shall
keep custody of, multiple Bond blanks executed by the City for
use in the transfer and exchange of Bonds.
Any -Bond may be transferred or exchanged, but only in
the manner, subject to the limitations, and upon payment of the
• charges as set forth in this Ordinance. Upon surrender for
transfer or exchange of any Bond at the principal corporate trust
office of the Bond Registrar, duly endorsed by or accompanied by
a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satis-
factory to the Bond Registrar and duly executed by the registered

liver in the name of the transferee or transferees or, in the
case of an exchange, the registered owner, a new fully registered
'Bond or Bonds of the same interest rate and maturity of autho-
rized denominations for a like aggregate principal amount. The
execution by the City of any fully registered Bond shall consti-
tute full and due authorization of such Bond, and the Bond Regis-
trar shall thereby be authorized to authenticate, date and de-
•
-12-
•
liver such Bond; provided, however, the principal amount of Bonds
of each maturity authenticated by the Bond Registrar shall not at
any one time exceed the authorized principal amount of Bonds for
such maturity less the amount of such Bonds which have been paid.
The Bond Registrar shall not be required to transfer or
exchange any Bond during the period from the 15th day of the
calendar month preceding an interest payment date on the Bonds to
such interest payment date or during the period of 15 days pre -
I
ceding the giving of notice of redemption of Bonds or to transfer
or exchange any Bond all or a portion of which has been called
for redemption.
• The person in whose name any Bond shall be registered
shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for
•
all purposes, and payment of the principal of or interest on any
Bond shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered
owner thereof or his legal representative. All such payments
shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liabil-
ity upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
No service charge shall be made for any transfer or
exchange of Bonds, but the City or the Bond Registrar may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other govern-
mental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer
or exchange of Bonds.

Bonds shall be deposited into the Bond Fund and used solely
and only for the purpose of paying the Bonds. Interest re-
ceived from investments on deposit in the Bond Fund shall be

time to time determine.
B. The sum of Bond proceeds necessary shall be used to provide

Council. Said ordinance will set forth the terms and con-
ditions of the Escrow Agreement providing for such Escrow

• be executed and delivered at or prior to the delivery of the
Bonds.
•
C. The balance of the proceeds received from the sale of the
Bonds shall be deposited into the "Bond Series 1986 - Capital
Improvement Program Fund" (the "Program Fund"), hereby
created. Disbursements from the Program Fund shall be made
only for the purpose for which the Bonds are being issued, as
herein provided, including all fees and expenses incidental
to the program and the enumerated. projects and the issuance
of the Bonds, and for which such proceeds of sale are hereby
appropriated. Subject to Section 14 of this Ordinance, the
City Council reserves the right, as it becomes necessary from
time to time, to revise the list of projects hereinabove set
forth, to change priorities, to revise cost allocations be-
tween projects and to substitute projects, in order to meet
current needs of the City.
Section 14. Tax Covenants.
The City represents and certifies as follows with re-
spect to the Bonds:
A. The City has 'heretofore incurred, or within six
months after delivery of the Bonds expects to incur, substantial
-25-
binding obligations with respect to the Program to be paid for
with money received from the sale of the Bonds, said binding
obligations comprising binding contracts for land acquisition,
engineering or construction in not less than the amount of
$100,000.
B. All of the proceeds of the Bonds to be deposited
into the Program Fund will be expended on or before August 1,
1989,-for the :.purpose of paying the costs of the Program, said
date being within three years following the date of issue of the
Bonds.
C. All of the principal proceeds of the Bonds to be
deposited into the Program Fund and investment earnings thereon
will be used, needed and expended for the purpose of paying the
costs of the Program.
D. Work on the projects included in the Program is
expected to proceed with due diligence to completion.
E. No acquisition or improvement made as a part of the
the Program has been or is expected to be sold or otherwise dis-
posed of for money or property in whole or in material part prior
to the last maturity of the Bonds. "Material part" means (i)
land, or (ii) any improvement, or (iii) personal property or
fixtures in excess of that which is expected to be sold, traded
in or discarded upon wearing out or becoming obsolete.
F. The City will receive the agreed -upon purchase
price from the sale of the Bonds. Accrued interest on the Bonds
•
-26-
•
is to be deposited into the Bond Fund and used to pay first in-
terest coming due on the Bonds.
G. Except for the Bond Fund, the City has not created
or established and will not create or establish any sinking fund,
reserve fund or any other similar fund to provide for the payment
of the Bonds. Except for a certain beginning deposit from Bond
proceeds, the Bond Fund has been established and will be funded
with tax receipts or other moneys in a manner primarily to
achieve a proper matching of available revenues and debt
service. The Bond Fund will be depleted at least annually to an
amount not in excess of one -twelfth of the particular annual debt
service on the Bonds. Money deposited in the Bond Fund will be
•
spent within a 13-month period beginning on the date of deposit,
•
and investment earnings in the Fund will be spent within a 1-year
period beginning on the date of receipt.
H. The foregoing statements of expectation are based
upon the following facts and estimates:
(1) Amounts shown as received will be received pur-
suant to contract of sale.
(2) Amounts paid or to be paid into various funds and
accounts have been directed to be paid into said funds and
accounts by authority hereof or are expected to be so di-
rected to be paid by further proceedings.
(3) The anticipated dates of the obligation of and ex-
penditure of money in the Program Fund derived from the sale
of Bonds and the amounts to be spent on or before such dates
is based upon consultation with the engineers charged with
responsible supervision of the construction of the Program.
-27-
•
I. If at any time after the third anniversary of the
date of issuance of the Bonds, the amount of money in the Program
Fund exceeds 15% of the amount of the Bonds properly allocable to
the Program, then the amount of money in the Program Fund in
excess of said 15% amount shall not be invested at a yield
"materially higher" (as defined in the Treasury Regulations here-
inafter cited) than the yield on the Bonds unless the City re-
ceives an opinion from an attorney or a firm of attorneys of
.nationally recognized standing in matters pertaining to tax
exempt bonds to the effect that investment of such moneys at a
yield materially higher than the yield on the Bonds will not
• result in loss of tax exempt status for interest on the Bonds.
J. In valuing the moneys on deposit in the Program
Fund at any time for the purposes of complying with the foregoing
paragraph, investments will be taken into account at purchase
price with the following exception: if an investment is pur-
chased at a discount or results in interest payments for any
annual period in excess of interest payments for any preceding
annual period (reflecting the annual reinvestment of accrued
interest as principal), the amount of such discount or excess
interest (not discounted to present value) shall be added to the
purchase price ratably each year over the term of the invest-
ment. The yield on investments shall be calculated on the basis
of the actual payments received from and the price paid for such
• investments.
-28-
•
K. To the best of the knowledge and belief of the
members of the City Council, and of the undersigned Mayor of the
City and City Clerk, who are officers charged with the responsi-
bility of issuing the Bonds, there are no facts, estimates or
circumstances that would materially change the expectations,
conclusions and representations set out in this section, -and the
expectations set out in this section are reasonable.
L. The City has not been notified of any disqualifica-
tion or proposed disqualification of it by the Commissioner of
the Internal Revenue Service as a bond issuer which may certify
bond issues under Treas. Reg. §1.103-13 (a)(2)(ii)(1979).
• The City also certifies and further covenants with the
purchasers and registered owners of the Bonds from time to time
outstanding that moneys on deposit in any fund or account in
connection with the Bonds, whether or not such.moneys were de-
rived from the proceeds of the sale of the Bonds or from any
other source, will not be used in a manner which will cause the
Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section
103(c) of the Code and any lawful regulations promulgated there-
under, including Treas. Reg. §§1.103-13, 1.103-14 and 1.103-15
(1979) as the same presently exist or may from time to time here-
after be amended, supplemented or revised. The City reserves the
right, however, to make any investment of moneys on deposit in
any `fund or account in connection with the Bonds permitted by
state law, if, when and to the extent that said Section 103(c) or
•
-29-
regulations promulgated thereunder shall be repealed or relaxed
or shall be held void by final decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction, but only if any investment made by virtue of such
repeal, relaxation or decision would not, in the opinion of an
attorney or a firm of attorneys, as hereinabove described in
paragraph I, result in loss of tax exempt status of interest on
the Bonds.
The City recognizes that Section 103(j) of the Code
requires the Bonds to be issued and to remain in fully registered
form in order for interest thereon to be and remain tax exempt.
In this connection, the City agrees that it will not take any
action to permit the Bonds to be issued in, or converted into,
•
bearer or coupon form.
The City acknowledges that on December 17, 1985, the
United States House of Representatives adopted H.R. 3838 (in the
form so adopted, the "Tax Bill"). The City further acknowledges
that on March 14, 1986, the Chairman of the House Ways and Means
Committee, the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, the
Secretary of the Treasury, and the ranking minority members of
said committees issued a joint statement (the "Joint Statement")
endorsing the postponement, until the earlier of September 1,
1986, or the date of enactment of tax reform legislation, of the
application of certain provisions of the Tax Bill to certain
types of bonds, including the Bonds. The City intends to issue
the Bonds prior to the effective date referred to in the Joint
C:
-30-
•
Statement, making compliance with those provisions of the Tax
Bill proposed to be postponed pursuant to the Joint Statement
unnecessary if such postponement is enacted. The City does not
intend to comply with the provisions of the Tax Bill proposed to
be postponed, but hereby covenants to comply with the provisions
of the Tax Bill which are unaffected by the Joint Statement.
The City covenants to use its best efforts to comply
with the requirements and restrictions of any federal legislation
enacted into law applicable to the interest on the Bonds, pro-
vided that the City will be required to use such efforts only to
the extent that (i) compliance is consistent with the provisions
• hereof and with the other proceedings authorizing the Bonds and
the laws -of the State of Illinois; (ii) compliance is possible by
•
actions of the City subsequent to the enactment of such legisla-
tion; and (iii) there is a reasonable period of time within which
to comply with such legislation.
Any officer of the City is hereby authorized and
directed to make such further covenants, estimates, representa-
tions, or assurances consistent with this Ordinance as may be
necessary or advisable to the end that the interest on the Bonds
is and remains tax exempt.
Section 15. Certain Covenants of and with respect to
the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent
The City covenants that it will at all times retain a
Bond Registrar and a Paying Agent with respect to the Bonds, that

may be presented for payment or registration of transfer or ex-
change, and that it will require that the Bond Registrar properly
maintain the Bond Register and perform the other duties and ob-
ligations imposed upon it by this ordinance in a manner con-

City is authorized to execute the Bond Registrar's standard form

duties and obligations imposed upon it by this ordinance by exe-
cuting the certificate of authentication on any Bond, and by such
• execution the Bond Registrar shall be deemed to have certified to
the City that it has all requisite power to accept and has ac-
cepted such duties and obligations. The Bond Registrar is the
agent of the City and shall not be liable in connection with the
performance of its duties except for its own negligence or will-
ful wrongdoing. The Bond Registrar shall, however, be respon-
sible for any representation in its certificate of authentication
on the Bonds.
The City may remove the Bond Registrar or the Paying
Agent at any time. In case at any time the Bond Registrar or the
Paying Agent shall resign, shall be removed, shall become in-
capable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent,
or if ---a receiver, liquidator or conservator of the Bond Registrar
or the Paying Agent, or of the property thereof, shall be ap-
pointed, or if any public officer shall take charge or control of

affairs thereof, the City covenants and agrees that it will
thereupon appoint a successor Bond Registrar or Paying Agent, or
both, as appropriate. The City shall mail notice of any such
appointment made by it to each registered owner of any Bond
within 20 days after such appointment. Any Bond Registrar or
Paying Agent appointed under the provisions of this section shall
be a bank, trust company or national banking association having
capital and surplus in excess of $100,000,000.

formed by or on behalf of the City shall be for the equal bene-
fit, protection and security of the registered owners of any and
all of the Bonds. All of the Bonds, regardless of the time or
times of their issuance, -shall be of equal rank without prefer-
ence, priority or distinction of any of the Bonds over any other
thereof.

est on the Bonds may be abated if provision is made for the pay-
ment of the Bonds from other lawfully available moneys, but such

transferred to the Program Fund or, if not necessary for said
purpose, shall either be used to abate the taxes herein levied
for the Bonds or be 'transferr'ed `to 'tire -corporate fund of the City
