The principal of and interest on the Notes shall be pay- able in lawful money of the United States of America, or in Federal Reserve funds of the United States of America if so requested by the original pur- chaser. The principal of and interest on the Notes shall be payable, without deduction for services of the City's paying agent, at the main office of National City Bank, Cleveland, Ohio, or at the principal office of a bank or trust company requested by the original purchaser of the Notes, provided that such request shall be approved by the Director of Finance after determining that the payment at that bank or trust company will not endanger the funds or securities of the City and that proper procedures and safeguards are available for that purpose (the Paying Agent). The Notes shall be dated their respective dates of issuance and shall mature one year from the date of issuance of the first Note issued pursuant to this ordinance. Section 5.
