<br />Section 11. The Director of Finance is hereby directed to create the following fiords and
<br />accounts into which the proceeds of the Notes and all Revenues shall be deposited, which shall be

<br />will not constitute "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Internal Revenue Code
<br />of 1986, as amended (the "Code "). The City farther covenants that it will restrict the use of the proceeds of
<br />the Notes in such mamier and to such extent, if any, as may be necessary, after taking into account

<br />Section 148 of the Code and the regulations prescribed thereunder (the "Regulations ").

<br />and directed (a) to make or effect any election, selection, designation, choice, consent, approval or waiver
<br />on behalf of the City with respect to the Notes as permitted or required to be made or given under the
<br />federal income tax laws, for the purpose of assuring, enhancing or protecting favorable tax treatment or the
<br />status of the Notes or interest thereon or assisting compliance with requirements for that purpose, reducing
<br />the burden or expense of such compliance, reducing any rebate amount or any payment of penalties, or
<br />making any payments of special amounts in lieu of making computations to determine, or paying, any
<br />excess earnings as rebate, or obviating those amounts or payments, as determined by the Director of
<br />Finance, which action shall be in writing and signed by the Director of Finance, or any other officer of the

<br />an appropriate certificate on behalf of the City, for inclusion in the transcript of proceedings, setting forth
<br />the facts, estimates and circumstances, and reasonable expectations of the City pertaining to Section 148 and
<br />the Regulations, and the representations, warranties and covenants of the City regarding compliance by the
