To provide the City with information necessary for compliance <br />with Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as mended (the "Code"), the successful bidder will <br />be required to complete, execute and deliver to the City prior to the delivery of the Bonds, a certificate <br />regarding the "issue price" of the Bonds (as tierrood in Section 148 of the Code), reflecting the initial offering <br />prices (excluding accrued interest and expressed as dollar prices) at which a substantial amount (i.e., 10% or <br />more) of the Bonds of each maturity have been or are expected to be sold to the public. The term "public" <br />excludes bond houses, brokers or similar persons, or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters or <br />wholesalers. Such certificate shall state that 10% or more of the Bonds of each maturity have been or are <br />expected to be sold to the public at prices no higher than such initial offering prices. However, such certificate <br />may indicate that the successful bidder will not reoffer the Bonds for sale. <br /> <br /> Delivery and Payment. The City will pay for printing the Bonds and will deliver the Bonds, properly <br />prepared, executed and registered, without cost to the successful bidder within 30 days after the date of sale <br />at such bank or trust company located in the United States as may be specified by the successtiff bidder, or <br />elsewhere at the expense of the successful bidder. The successful bidder will also be furnished with a certified <br />transcript of the proceedings evidencing the authorization and issuance of the Bonds and the usual dosing <br />documents, including a certificate that there is no litigation pending or threatened at the time of delivery of the <br />Bonds affecting their validity and a certificate regarding the completeness and accuracy of the Official <br />Statement. Payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal reserve funds, immediately available for use by <br />the City. The denominations of the Bonds and the names, addresses and social security or taxpayer <br />identification numbers of the registered owners shall be submitted in writing by the successful bidder to the <br />Paying Agent at least five business days prior to the date of delivery of the Bonds. In the absence of such <br />information, the City will deliver Bonds in the denomination of each maturity registered in the name of the <br />successful bidder. <br /> <br /> Good Faith Deposit. Each bid shall be accompanied by a cashier's or certified check drawn on a bank <br />located in the United States of America in the amount of $89,500 payable to the order of the City to secure <br />the City from any loss resulting from the failure of the bidder to comply with the terms of its bid. No interest <br />will be paid upon the deposit made by the successful bidder. Said check shall be returned to the bidder if its <br />bid is not accepted. If a bid is accepted, said check or the proceeds thereof shall be held by the City until the <br />bidder has complied with all of the terms and conditions of this Notice, at which time the amount of said check <br />shall be returned to the successful bidder or deducted from the purchase price at the option of the City. If a <br />bid is accepted but the City fails to deliver the Bonds to the bidder in accordance with the terms and conditions <br />of this Notice, said check or the proceeds thereof shall be returned to the bidder. If a bid is accepted but the <br />bidder defaults in the performance of any of the terms and conditions of this Notice, the proceeds of such <br />check shall be retained by the City as and for liquidated damages. <br /> <br /> CUSIP Numbers. CUSIP identification numbers will be printed on the Bonds, but neither the failure <br />to print such number on any Bond nor any error with respect thereto shall constitute cause for failure or refusal <br />by the purchaser thereof to accept delivery of and pay for the Bonds in accordance with the terms of this <br />Notice. All expenses in relation to the assignment and printing of CUSIP numbers on the Bonds will be paid <br />by the City. <br /> <br /> Bond Ratings.

All bids must be made on forms which may be procured from the Finance Director or the <br />City' s Financial Advisor. No additions or alterations in such forms shall be made and any erasures may cause <br />rejection of any bid. The City reserves the right to waive irregularities and to reject any or all bids. <br /> <br />-3- <br /> <br /> <br />
