authentication is an interest payment date to which interest has been paid or made
available for payment, in which case such Bond shall 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 such Bond will be dated as of the date of original issue.

business on the fifteenth day of the immediately preceding month, whether or not

3.03. Registration. The City may appoint and maintain a bond registrar,
transfer agent, authenticating agent and paying agent (Registrar) . After such
appointment, the effect of registration and the rights and duties of the City and the
Registrar with respect thereto will be as follows:
(a) Register. The Registrar must keep at its principal corporate
trust office a bond register in which the Registrar provides for the
SNG44187
MN190-38 2
registration of ownership of Bonds and the registration of transfers and
exchanges of Bonds entitled to be registered, transferred or exchanged.
(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 such 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 any 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 make 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 such Bond to the extent of the sum or
sums so paid.
(g) Taxes, Fees and Charges. For a transfer or exchange of Bonds,
the Registrar may impose a charge upon the owner thereof 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 a 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
of 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
SNG44187
MN190-38 3
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.
(i) Redemption. 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) not more than 60 and not less than 30 days prior to the date
fixed for redemption 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 notice in the manner 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 any proceeding 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.
(j) Appointment of 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, such 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.
3.04. Execution, Authentication and Delivery. The Bonds will be prepared
under the direction of the Administrator and executed on behalf of the City by the
signatures of the Mayor and the Administrator. In case any officer whose signature
or a facsimile of whose signature appears on the Bonds ceases to be such officer
before the delivery of any Bond, such signature or facsimile will nevertheless be
valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if the officer had remained in office
until delivery.
Section 4. Form of Bond.
4.01. The Bonds will be in substantially the following form:
