(a) The City hereby accepts the offer of the PFA to purchase the General Obligation Sewer
Revenue Note, Series 2015A (the "Note "), to be issued by the City in the original aggregate principal amount
of $2,391,483 at the rate of interest hereinafter set forth, and to pay therefor the par amount of the Note as

provisions of the Project Loan Agreement, and to the extent that any provision in the Project Loan Agreement
is in conflict with this resolution, the Project Loan Agreement shall control.
(b) The Note is to be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $2,391,483, originally and

of such absent or disabled officer. If an officer whose signature will appear on the Note ceases to be such
officer before the delivery of the Note, such officer's signature will nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all
purposes, the same as if such officer had remained in office until delivery.
Section 5. Delivery; Application of Proceeds. The Note when so prepared and executed will be
delivered by the City Administrator to the PFA prior to disbursements pursuant to the Project Loan Agreement
and the purchaser is not obliged to see to the proper application thereof.
Section 6. Sewer Fund and Accounts. There shall be created and maintained a separate fiend in
the City treasury designated as the Sewer Fund (the "Sewer Fund"). The City Administrator and all municipal
officials and employees concerned therewith will establish and maintain financial records of the receipts and
disbursements of the municipal sanitary sewer system (the "Sanitary Sewer System") in accordance with this
resolution. There will be maintained in the Sewer Fund, in addition to any accounts previously created, the
following three (3) separate accounts:
(a) A Capital Account to which will be credited all proceeds from the sale of the Note.
The Note is the only source of money to be credited to the Capital Account. It is recognized that the
sale proceeds of the Note are received in reimbursement for costs expended on the Project or in direct
464960v1 MNIMN190 -149 2
payment of such costs, and that accordingly the money need not be placed in the Capital Account upon
receipt but may be applied immediately to reimburse the source from which the expenditure was made.
Money in the Capital Account is to be used solely for the purpose of paying for the cost of constructing
the Project, including all costs enumerated in Section 475.65 of the Act, provided that such money
may only be expended for costs and expenses which are permitted under the Project Loan Agreement.
The PFA prohibits the use of proceeds of the Note to reimburse costs initially paid from proceeds of
other obligations of the City unless otherwise specifically approved by the PFA. Upon completion of
the Project and the payment of the costs thereof, any surplus is to be transferred to the Debt Service
Account.
(b) An Operation and Maintenance Account into which are to be paid all gross
revenues and earnings derived from the operation of the Sanitary Sewer System, including all
charges for the service, use and availability of and connection to the Sanitary Sewer System, when
collected, and all money received from the sale of any facilities or equipment of the Sanitary Sewer
System or any by- products thereof. From this account there will be paid all the normal, reasonable
and current costs of operating, maintaining, and insuring the Sanitary Sewer System, including
salaries, wages, costs of materials and supplies, necessary legal, engineering and auditing services,
and all other items that, by sound accounting practices, constitute normal, reasonable and current
costs of operating and maintenance, but excluding an;, allowance for depreciation, extraordinary
repairs and payments into any debt service account. All money remaining in the Operation and
Maintenance Account after paying or providing for the foregoing items constitutes, and is referred
to in this resolution as, "net revenues."
(c) A Debt Service Account into which are irrevocably pledged or credited (i) net
revenues of the Sanitary Sewer System in an amount sufficient, with other money, to pay the
principal of and interest on the Note when due; (ii) all collections of taxes which may hereafter be
levied for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Note; (iii) all investment earnings on
money held in the Debt Service Account; (iv) any amounts transferred from the Capital Account;
and (v) any other money which is properly available and is appropriated by the City Council to the
Debt Service Account. The money in this account may be used only to pay or prepay the principal of
the Note and to pay interest on the Note and any other obligations hereafter issued and made payable
from this account, and to pay any rebate due to the United States with respect to the PFA Bonds in
connection with the Note.
(d) Excess net revenues not required for the purposes of the Sewer Fund may be used for
any proper municipal purpose.
No portion of the proceeds of the Note may be used directly or indirectly to acquire higher
yielding investments, or to replace funds which were used directly or indirectly to acquire higher
yielding investments, except (i) for a reasonable temporary period until such proceeds are needed for
the purpose for which the Note was issued, and (ii) in addition to the above in an amount not greater
than the lesser of five percent (5 %) of the proceeds of the Note or $100,000. To this effect, any
proceeds of the Note or any sums from time to time held in the Capital Account (or any other City
account which will be used to pay principal of or interest on the Note) in excess amounts which under
then applicable federal arbitrage regulations may be invested without regard to yield will not be
invested at a yield in excess of the applicable yield restrictions imposed by the arbitrage regulations on
such investments after taking into account any applicable "temporary periods" or "minor portion"
made available under the federal arbitrage regulations. In addition, money in the Sewer Fund will not
be invested in obligations or deposits issued by, guaranteed by or insured by the United States or any
agency or instrumentality thereof if and to the extent that such investment would cause the Note to be
464960vl MNI MN190 -149
"federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code ").
The City will observe the covenants of Sections 14, 15, 16, and 17 of this resolution and of
Article III of the Project Loan Agreement with regard to the Sewer Fund.
Section 7. Coverage Test; Pledge of Net Revenues, Excess Revenues. It is found, determined
and declared that the net revenues of the Sanitary Sewer System are sufficient in amount to pay one hundred
five percent (105 %) of the principal of and interest on the Note when due, and the net revenues of the Sanitary
Sewer System are pledged to the payment of the Note, but solely to the extent required to meet, with other
pledged sources, one hundred five percent (105 1/6) of the principal and interest requirements of-the Note as the
same become due.
Section 8. Pledge to Produce Revenues. In accordance with the Act the City hereby covenants
and agrees with the holder of the Note that it will impose and collect charges for the service, use and availability
of any connection to the Sanitary Sewer System at the times and in the amounts required to produce net
revenues adequate to pay all principal and interest when due on the Note.
Section 9. General l Obligation Pledge. The full faith and credit and tax?ng powers of the City
will be and are irrevocably pledged for the prompt and full payment of the principal of and interest on the Note
as the same respectively become due. If the net revenues of the Sanitary Sewer System appropriated and
pledged to the payment of principal of and interest on the Note, together with other funds irrevocably
appropriated to the Debt Service Account referred to in Section 6, are at any time insufficient to pay such
principal and interest when due, the City covenants and agrees to levy, without limitation as to rate or amount,
an ad valorem tax upon all taxable property in the City sufficient to pay such principal and interest as the same
become due. If the balance in the Debt Service Account is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest
then due on the Note and any other obligations payable therefrom, the deficiency will be promptly paid out of
any other funds of the City which are available for such purpose, and those other funds may be reimbursed,
with or without interest, from the Debt Service Account when a sufficient balance is available in that account.
Section 10. Certificate of Registration. The City Administrator is authorized and directed to file
a certified copy of this resolution with the County Auditor/Treasurer of Wright County, Minnesota (the
"County Auditor/Treasurer"), together with such other information as the County Auditor/Treasurer may
require, and to obtain the certificate of the County Auditor/Treasurer that the Note has been entered in the Bond
Register of the County Auditor/Treasurer.
Section 11. Project Loan Agreement. The Project Loan Agreement is approved in substantially
the form presented to the City Council of the City, and in the form executed is incorporated by reference and
made a part of this resolution. The provisions of this resolution relating to the Note are intended to be consistent
with the provisions of the Project Loan Agreement, and to the extent that any provision in the Project Loan
Agreement is in conflict with this resolution as it relates to the Note, that provision controls. The execution
and delivery of the Project Loan Agreement by the Mayor and City Administrator are hereby authorized and
ratified. The execution of the Project Loan Agreement by the appropriate officers is conclusive evidence of
the approval of the Project Loan Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. The Project Loan Agreement
may be attached to the Note, and must be attached to the Note if the holder of the Note is any person other than
the PFA.
Section 12. Grant Agreement. The Grant Agreement is approved in substantially the form
presented to the City Council, and in the form executed is incorporated by reference and made part of this
resolution. The execution and delivery of the Grant Agreement by the Mayor and City Administrator are
464960v1 MNI MN190 -149 4

evidence of the approval of the Grant Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof.
Section 13. Records and Certificates. The officers of the City are hereby authorized and directed
to prepare and furnish to the PFA, and to the attorneys approving the legality of the issuance of the Note,
certified copies of all proceedings and records of the City relating to the Note and to the financial condition and
affairs of the City, and such other affidavits, certificates and information as are required to show the facts
relating to the legality and marketability of the Note as the same appear from the books and records under their
custody and control, or as otherwise known to them, and all such certified copies, certificates and affidavits
including any heretofore furnished, are to be deemed representations of the City as to the facts recited therein.
Section 14. Negative Covenants as to Use of Proceeds and Project. The City covenants not to use
the proceeds of the Note or to use the Project, or to cause or permit them to be used, or to enter into any deferred
payment arrangements for the cost of the Project, in such a manner as to cause the Note to be a private activity
bond within the meaning of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code. The City reasonably expects that
no actions will be taken over the term of the Note that would cause it to be a private activity bond, and the
average term of the Note is not longer than reasonably necessary for the governmental purpose of the issue.
The City covenants not to use the proceeds of the Note in such a manner as to cause the Note to be a "hedge
bond" within the meaning of Section 149(8) of the Code.
Section 15. Tax- Exempt Status of the Note, Rebate. The City will comply with requirements
necessary under the Code to establish and maintain the exclusion from gross income under Section 103 of the
Code of the interest on the Note, including without limitation (i) requirements relating to temporary periods for
investments; (ii) limitations on amounts invested at a yield greater than the yield on the PFA Bonds; and (iii) the
rebate of excess investment earnings to the United States.
Section 16. Tax - Exempt Status of the PFA Bonds; Rebate. The City, with respect to the Note,
will comply with requirements necessary under the Code to establish and maintain the exclusion from gross
income under Section 103 of the Code of the interest on the PFA Bonds, including without limitation
(i) requirements relating to temporary periods for investments; (ii) limitations on amounts invested at a yield in
excess of the applicable yield restrictions imposed by the Code; and (iii) the rebate of excess investment
earnings to the United States. The City covenants and agrees with the PFA and holders of the Note that the
investments of proceeds of the Note, including the investment of any revenues pledged to the Note which are
considered gross proceeds of the PFA Bonds under the applicable regulations, and accumulated sinking funds,
if any, will be limited as to amount and yield in such manner that the PFA Bonds will not be arbitrage bonds
within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code and any regulations thereunder. On the .basis of the existing
facts, estimates and circumstances, including the foregoing findings and covenants, the City certifies that it is
not expected that the proceeds of the Note will be used in such manner as to cause the PFA Bonds to be arbitrage
bonds under Section 148 of the Code and any regulations thereunder. The Mayor and the City Administrator
will furnish a certificate to the PFA embracing or based on the foregoing certification at the time of delivery of
the Note to the PFA.
Section 17. Qualified Tax - Exempt Obligations. In order to qualify the Note as a "qualified tax -

provided in the Project Loan Agreement (as defined below) and remains unpaid, from the date of this Note for
disbursements made on or prior to that date or from the date of each later disbursement until the principal
amount hereof is paid or has been provided for, at the rate of 1.063% per annum on each February 20 and
August 20, commencing February 20, 2016.
Principal and Interest Payments. Interest accrues only on the aggregate amount of this Note that has
been disbursed under the Bond Purchase and Project Loan Agreement dated July 14, 2015 (the "Project Loan
Agreement "), by and between the City and the Minnesota Public Facilities Authority (the "PFA "). The
principal installments will be paid in the amounts scheduled above even if at the time of payment the full
principal amount of this Note has not been disbursed, provided that to the extent any principal amount of this
Note is never disbursed, the amount of the principal not disbursed is to be applied to reduce each unpaid
principal installment in the proportion that such installment bears to the total of all unpaid principal installments
(i.e., the remaining principal payment schedule is to be reamortized to provide similarly level annual
installments of total debt service payments).
Interest on this Note includes amounts treated by the PFA as service fees. Principal, interest and any
premium due under this Note will be paid on each payment date by wire transfer of immediately available
464960v1 MNI MN190 -149 B -1
funds, or by check or draft mailed at least five (5) business days prior to the payment date to the person in
whose name this Note is registered in any coin or currency of the United States of America which at the time
of payment is legal tender for public and private debts.
Redemption. This Note is subject to optional or mandatory redemption and prepayment in whole or
in part as provided in the Project Loan Agreement. If redemption is in part, installments of principal payable
last under this Note must be prepaid first, unless the City and the holder of this Note agree to a different manner
of payment.
Purpose; General Obligation. This Note has been issued pursuant to and in full conformity with the
Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota, for the purpose of providing money to finance eligible project
costs of the City's municipal sanitary sewer system, and is payable out of the Debt Service Account of the
Sewer Fund of the City, to which account have been pledged net revenues of the City's municipal sanitary
sewer system. This Note constitutes a general obligation of the City, and to provide money for the prompt and
full payment of said principal installments and interest when the same become due, the full faith and credit and
taxing powers of the City have been and are hereby irrevocably pledged.
Registration: Transfer. This Note must be registered in the name of the payee on the books of the City
by presenting this Note for registration to the City Administrator, who will endorse the City Administrator's
name and note the date of registration opposite the name of the payee in the certificate of registration attached
hereto. Thereafter this Note may be transferred to a bona fide purchaser only by delivery with an assignment
duly executed by the registered owner or owner's legal representative, and the City may treat the registered
owner as the person exclusively entitled to exercise all the rights and powers of an owner until this Note is
presented with such assignment for registration of transfer, accompanied by assurance of the nature provided
by law that the assignment is genuine and effective, and until such transfer is registered on said books and noted
hereon by the City Administrator.
Fees Upon Transfer or Loss. The City Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with the transfer of this Note and any legal or
unusual costs regarding transfers and lost notes.
Project Loan Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Project Loan Agreement are incorporated
herein by reference and made a part hereof. The Project Loan Agreement may be attached to this Note and
must be attached to this Note if the holder of this Note is any person other than the Minnesota Public Facilities
Authority.
Tax - Exempt Obligation. The City intends that the interest on this Note will be excluded from gross
income for United States income tax purposes or from both gross income and taxable net income for State of
Minnesota income tax purposes.
Qualified Tax- Exempt Obligation. The City Council has designated this Note as a "qualified tax -
exempt obligation" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code "), relating to disallowance of interest expense for financial institutions and within the $10 million
limit allowed by the Code for the calendar year of issue.
IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED AND RECITED that all acts, conditions and things required by the
Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota to be done, to happen and to be performed precedent to and in
the issuance of this Note, have been done, have happened and have been performed in regular and due form,
time and manner required by law; that the City has covenanted and agreed with the holder of this Note that it
will impose and collect charges for the service, use and availability of and connection to its municipal sanitary
sewer system at the times and in amounts necessary to produce net revenues adequate to pay all principal and
464960v1 MNI MN190 -149 B -2
interest when due on this Note; that the City will levy a direct, annual, irrepealable ad valorem tax upon all of
the taxable property in the City, without limitation as to rate or amount, if the net revenues from the municipal
sanitary sewer system and any other revenues irrevocably appropriated to the Debt Service Account are
insufficient therefor; and that this Note, together with all other debts of the City outstanding on the date hereof,
being the date of its actual issuance and delivery, does not exceed any constitutional or statutory limitation of
indebtedness.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the City of Monticello, Wright County, Minnesota, has caused this Note
to be executed with the manual signatures of its Mayor and City Administrator, both as of the nominal date of
original issue specified above.
