<br />and shall be used for the purpose for which the Notes are being issued. Any portion of those
<br />proceeds representing premium and accrued interest shall be paid into the Bond Retirement

<br />Section 8. The par value to be received from the sale of the Bonds or of any
<br />renewal notes and any excess funds resulting from the issuance of the Notes shall, to the extent

<br />Section 9. During the year or years in which the Notes are outstanding, there shall

<br />debt charges on the Notes or the Bonds when and as the same fall due. In each year to the

<br />receipts such amount as is necessary to meet such annual debt charges on the Notes and the
<br />Bonds.

<br />investment of, the proceeds of the Notes in such manner and to such extent as may be necessary
<br />so that (a) the Notes will not (i) constitute private activity bonds, arbitrage bonds or hedge bonds
<br />under Section 141, 148 or 149 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code),
<br />or (ii) be treated other than as bonds to which Section 103(a) of the Code applies, and (b) the
<br />interest on the Notes will not be an item of tax preference under Section 57 of the Code.
<br />The City further covenants that (a) it will take or cause to be taken such actions that
<br />may be required of it for the interest on the Notes to be and remain excluded from gross income
<br />for federal income tax purposes, (b) it will not take or authorize to be taken any actions that
