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.

printed, engraved or lithographed facsimiles of the originals. 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. 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 each 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 Finance Director shall 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.

definitive Bonds one or more typewritten temporary Bonds in substantially the

tlme of such actions, and that It will take or cause its officers, employees or

cause or permit them or any of them to be used, in such a manner as to cause the
Bonds to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Sections 103 and 141
through 150 of the Code.
7.04. In order to qualify the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations"
within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code, the City makes the follow-ing
factual statements and representations:
(a) the Bonds are not "private activity bonds" as defined In
Section 141 of the Code;
(b) the City hereby designates the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt
obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code;
(c) the reasonably anticipated amount of tax-exempt obligations
(other than private activity bonds, treating qualified 501(c)(3) bonds as not
being private activity bonds) which will be issued by the City (and all
subordinate entities of the City) during calendar year 1990 will not exceed
$10,000,000; and
