by the Registrar described herein.
2.02. Dates; Interest Payment Dates. Each Bond will be dated as of the last interest payment date
preceding the date of authentication to which interest on the Bond has been paid or made available for
payment, unless (i) the date of authentication is an interest payment date to which interest has been paid or
made available for payment, in which case the Bond will be dated as of the date of authentication, or(ii)the
date of authentication is prior to the first interest payment date,in which case the Bond will be dated as of the
date of original issue. The interest on the Bonds is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year,
commencing August 1,2014, to the registered owners of record thereof as of the close of business on the
fifteenth day of the immediately preceding month,whether or not such day is a business day.
2.03. Registration. The City will appoint a bond registrar,transfer agent, authenticating agent and
paying agent (the"Registrar"). The effect of registration and the rights and duties of the City and the
Registrar with respect thereto are as follows:
(a) Re ig ster. The Registrar must keep at its principal corporate trust office a bond
register in which the Registrar provides for the registration of ownership of Bonds and the
registration of transfers and exchanges of Bonds entitled to be registered,transferred or exchanged.
433818v2 MNI CL16249 4
(b) Transfer of Bonds. Upon surrender for transfer of a Bond duly endorsed by the
registered owner thereof or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to
the Registrar, duly executed by the registered owner thereof or by an attorney duly authorized by the
registered owner in writing,the Registrar will authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Bonds of a like aggregate principal amount and maturity,
as requested by the transferor. The Registrar may, however, close the books for registration of any
transfer after the fifteenth day of the month preceding each interest payment date and until that
interest payment date.
(c) Exchange of Bonds. When Bonds are surrendered by the registered owner for
exchange the Registrar will authenticate and deliver one or more new Bonds of a like aggregate
principal amount and maturity as requested by the registered owner or the owner's attorney in
writing.
(d) Cancellation. Bonds surrendered upon transfer or exchange will be promptly
cancelled by the Registrar and thereafter disposed of as directed by the City.
(e) Improper or Unauthorized Transfer. When a Bond is presented to the Registrar for
transfer, the Registrar may refuse to transfer the Bond until the Registrar is satisfied that the
endorsement on the Bond or separate instrument of transfer is valid and genuine and that the
requested transfer is legally authorized. The Registrar will incur no liability for the refusal, in good
faith,to snake transfers which it,in its judgment,deems improper or unauthorized.
(f) Persons Deemed Owners. The City and the Registrar may treat the person in whose
name a Bond is registered in the bond register as the absolute owner of the Bond,whether the Bond
is overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of and
interest on the Bond and for all other purposes, and payments so made to a registered owner or upon
the owner's order will be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon the Bond to
the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(g) Taxes, Fees and Charges. The Registrar may impose a charge upon the owner
thereof for a transfer or exchange of Bonds sufficient to reimburse the Registrar for any tax, fee or
other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to the transfer or exchange.
(h) Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Bonds. If a Bond becomes mutilated or is
destroyed, stolen or lost,the Registrar will deliver a new Bond of like amount,number,maturity date
and tenor in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Bond or in lieu of
and in substitution for any Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, upon the payment of the reasonable
expenses and charges of the Registrar in connection therewith; and, in the case of a Bond destroyed,
stolen or lost, upon filing with the Registrar of evidence satisfactory to it that the Bond was
destroyed, stolen or lost, and of the ownership thereof, and upon furnishing to the Registrar an
appropriate bond or indemnity in form, substance and amount satisfactory to it and as provided by
law, in which both the City and the Registrar must be named as obligees. Bonds so surrendered to
the Registrar will be cancelled by the Registrar and evidence of such cancellation must be given to
the City. If the mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Bond has already matured or been called for
redemption in accordance with its terms it is not necessary to issue a new Bond prior to payment.
G) Redem tp ion. In the event any of the Bonds are called for redemption,notice thereof
identifying the Bonds to be redeemed will be given by the Registrar by mailing a copy of the
redemption notice by first class mail (postage prepaid) to the registered owner of each Bond to be
redeemed at the address shown on the registration books kept by the Registrar and by publishing the
433818v2 MNI CL16249 5
notice if required by law. Failure to give notice by publication or by mail to any registered owner, or
any defect therein,will not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of Bonds. Bonds
so called for redemption will cease to bear interest after the specified redemption date,provided that
the funds for the redemption are on deposit with the place of payment at that time.
2.04. Appointment of Initial Registrar, The City appoints U.S. Bank National Association, Saint
Paul, Minnesota, as the initial Registrar. The Mayor and the City Manager are authorized to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the City, a contract with the Registrar. Upon merger or consolidation of the Registrar
with another corporation, if the resulting corporation is a bank or trust company authorized by law to conduct
such business,the resulting corporation is authorized to act as successor Registrar. The City agrees to pay the
reasonable and customary charges of the Registrar for the services performed. The City reserves the right to
remove the Registrar upon 30 days'notice and upon the appointment of a successor Registrar, in which event
the predecessor Registrar must deliver all cash and Bonds in its possession to the successor Registrar and
must deliver the bond register to the successor Registrar. On or before each principal or interest due date,
without further order of this Council, the Finance Director must transmit to the Registrar moneys sufficient
for the payment of all principal and interest then due.
2.05. Execution,Authentication and Delivery. The Bonds will be prepared under the direction of
the City Manager and executed on behalf of the City by the signatures of the Mayor and the City Manager,
provided that those signatures may be printed, engraved or lithographed facsimiles of the originals. If an
officer whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature appears on the Bonds ceases to be such officer
before the delivery of a Bond, that signature or facsimile will nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all
purposes, the same as if the officer had remained in office until delivery. Notwithstanding such execution, a
Bond will not be valid or obligatory for any purpose or entitled to any security or benefit under this resolution
unless and until a certificate of authentication on the Bond has been duly executed by the manual signature of
an authorized representative of the Registrar. Certificates of authentication on different Bonds need not be
signed by the same representative. The executed certificate of authentication on a Bond is conclusive
evidence that it has been authenticated and delivered under this resolution. When the Bonds have been so
prepared, executed and authenticated, the City Manager will deliver the same to the Purchaser upon payment
of the purchase price in accordance with the contract of sale heretofore made and executed, and the Purchaser
is not obligated to see to the application of the purchase price.
2.06. Temporary Bonds. The City may elect to deliver in lieu of printed definitive Bonds one or
more typewritten temporary Bonds in substantially the form set forth in EXHIBIT B attached hereto with
such changes as may be necessary to reflect more than one maturity in a single temporary bond. Upon the
execution and delivery of definitive Bonds the temporary Bonds will be exchanged therefor and cancelled.
Section 3. Form of Bond.
3.01. Execution of the Bonds. The Bonds will be printed or typewritten in substantially the form
set forth in EXHIBIT B.
3.02. Approving Legal O inion. The City Manager is authorized and directed to obtain a copy
