TITLE
A RESOLUTION APPROVING A STATE AND MUNICIPAL LEASE/PURCHASE
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF PUEBLO, A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION, AND
COMMERCE BANK, A MISSOURI BANKING CORPORATION, AND APPROVING AN
ESCROW AGREEMENT, AUTHORIZING EXECUTION THEREOF BY THE PRESIDENT
OF THE CITY COUNCIL, AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF ALL

AUTHORIZING ALL OTHER ACTION NECESSARY TO THE CONSUMMATION OF THE
TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS RESOLUTION
ISSUE
Should the City of Pueblo enter into a lease/purchase agreement for the acquisition of
maintenance equipment and new golf carts for Elmwood and Walking Stick Golf Courses?
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
Existing mowers and other maintenance equipment within the Golf Course Enterprise have
become ongoing maintenance issues due to their age and hours of use. The oldest mower
currently in use is over eight years old and is routinely down for repairs. The average useful
lifespan of a commercial mower in a municipal or golf course environment is five years.
Late last year, when 2012 budget discussions began, Parks Department Administration,
Parks Maintenance staff and Golf Course Enterprise staff sat down and discussed the
possibility of replacing mowers and equipment by a lease/purchase option. In 2007, the
City of Tucson, AZ established a national cooperative purchasing agreement for grounds
maintenance equipment with the National Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance and the
TORO Company. Rather than having to go out for a competitive bid for this equipment, the
City has partnered with a Colorado TORO distributor to take advantage of this cooperative
agreement. This Resolution approves a lease/purchase agreement for acquisition of twenty-
four (24) new mowers, one (1) reel grinder, one (1) spreader, and one (1) bunker rake
vehicle. The total cost for this equipment is $639,927.03
In addition, this Resolution approves the lease/purchase of one hundred and forty-two (142)
new golf carts, two (2) driving range utility carts, and two (2) refreshment carts for the Golf
Course Enterprise. The total cost for this equipment is $317,404.00.
Where appropriate, bid proposals were sought and received for the equipment referenced in
the Resolution. Vendors were chosen based upon careful consideration of the proposals
submitted in response to a request for proposals and/or based upon their special
qualifications.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The ground maintenance equipment and the golf cart financing package total $957,331.03
which will be amortized over five years. The Golf Course Enterprise will make lease
payments through their operating budget.
The City’s obligation under the equipment lease
shall be subject to annual appropriation by the City Council which is recommended by the
respective Golf Course Managers/Pros.
Payment schedule for the lease/purchase payments, including interest at 1.57%, is as
follows:
04/04/2013 $198,252.61
04/04/2014 $198,252.61
04/04/2015 $198,252.61
04/04/2016 $198,252.61
04/04/2017 $198,252.61
The City’s obligation under the equipment lease shall be subject to annual appropriation by the
City Council.
COMMERCE BANK
STATE & MUNICIPAL LEASE/PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Lease Number: 1001112 -001
This State and Municipal Lease/Purchase Agreement (the "Lease") is made and entered into on this, the 19th day of December 2012 by and between
Commerce Bank with offices at 8000 Forsyth Boulevard, St. Louis, Missouri 63105 (herein called the "Lessor"), and City of Pueblo, A Municipal
Corporation with its principal address at 230 S. Mechanic Street, Pueblo, CO 81003 (herein called the "Lessee "), wherein it is agreed as follows:
1. LEASE OF EQUIPMENT: Lessee hereby requests Lessor to acquire the equipment described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Lessor agrees to lease to Lessee and Lessee agrees to lease from Lessor the equipment described in
Exhibit A, with all replacement parts, repairs, additions and accessories incorporated therein or affixed thereto (herein collectively called the
"Equipment").
2. DELIVERY AND ACCEPTANCE: Lessee agrees to order the Equipment from the supplier of such Equipment, but will not be liable for specific
performance of this Lease or for damages if for any reason the supplier delays or fails to fill the order. Lessee will cause the Equipment to be delivered
at the location specified in Exhibit A (the "Equipment Location "). Lessee will pay all transportation and other costs, if any, incurred in connection with the
delivery and installation of the Equipment. Any delay in such delivery will not affect the validity of this Lease. Lessee will accept the Equipment as soon
as it has been delivered and is operational, or as soon as any manufacturer or vendor preacceptance test period has expired. Lessee will have no more
than thirty (30) days from the date of delivery of the Equipment to accept such Equipment. In the event the Equipment is not accepted by Lessee within
thirty (30) days from the date of its delivery, Lessor, at Lessor's sole option, will have the right to terminate this Lease. Lessee will evidence its
acceptance of the Equipment by executing and delivering to Lessor a delivery and acceptance certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto and
made a part hereof (the "Acceptance Certificate "). Lessee hereby authorizes the Lessor to add to this Lease and to any other description of the
Equipment the serial number of each item of Equipment when available.
3. TERM: This Lease will become effective upon the execution hereof by Lessee and Lessor. The initial term of this Lease will commence on the earlier of
the date Lessee executes the Acceptance Certificate or the date funds sufficient to purchase the Equipment are deposited with a bank or trust company
in an escrow fund (the "Start Date ") and will extend through the end of Lessee's fiscal year containing the Start Date. Unless earlier terminated as
expressly provided for in this Lease, the term of this Lease will be automatically renewed on a year - to-year basis for the number of annual fiscal periods
necessary to comprise the lease term as set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof (the "Lease Term ").
4. RENT: Lessee agrees to pay Lessor or any Assignee (as defined in Section 22 below), the rental payments for the Equipment as set forth in Exhibit C
(the "Rental Payments "). A portion of each Rental Payment is paid as and represents the payment of interest as set forth in Exhibit C. The Rental
Payments will be payable without notice or demand, at the office of Lessor (or such other place as Lessor or any Assignee may designate in writing,
from time to time) and will commence on the Start Date or as otherwise set forth in Exhibit C, and the remaining Rental Payments will be payable on the
same day of each consecutive month or quarter or semiannual or annual period thereafter (as designated in Exhibit C) for the duration of the Lease
Term. Any notice, invoicing, purchase orders, quotations or other forms or procedures requested by Lessee in connection with payment will be fully
explained and provided to Lessor or any Assignee sufficiently in advance of the payment due date for the completion thereof by Lessor or any Assignee
prior to such payment date, but none of the foregoing will be a condition to Lessee's obligation to make any such payment. If Lessee fails to pay any
monthly rental payment or any other sums under the Lease within ten (10) days when the same becomes due, Lessee shall pay to Lessor (in addition to
and not in lieu of other rights of Lessor) a late charge equal to the greater of five (5 %) percent of such delinquent amount or Twenty -Five Dollars
($25.00), but in any event not more than the maximum permitted by law. Such late charge shall be payable by Lessee upon demand by Lessor and shall
be deemed rent hereunder. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that the late charge (i) does not constitute interest, (ii) is an estimate of the costs Lessor
will incur as a result of the late payment and (iii) is reasonable in amount. Lessor and Lessee understand and intend that the obligation of Lessee to pay
Rental Payments hereunder will constitute a current expense of Lessee and will not in any way be construed to be a debt of Lessee in contravention of
any applicable constitutional or statutory limitation or requirement concerning the creation of indebtedness by Lessee. EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY
PROVIDED IN SECTION 8 HEREOF, THE RENTAL PAYMENTS SHALL BE ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL IN ALL EVENTS AND WILL
NOT BE SUBJECT TO ANY SETOFF, DEFENSE, COUNTERCLAIM, ABATEMENT OR RECOUPMENT FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Lessee, by its use of the Equipment or by its actions or omissions or by any means whatsoever, causes
any interest payments as set forth in Exhibit C to be included in Lessor's gross income, Lessee agrees that the interest portion of the Rental Payments
on Exhibit C will be adjusted commencing with the first day of the next succeeding fiscal year of the Lessee, but only if this Lease is renewed for such
fiscal year, and thereafter, so that Lessor, its Assignees and any participants with such, will be in the same after -tax position they would have been in
had such payment been excluded from the gross income of Lessor, its Assignees and any participants with such under Section 103 of the Code.
5. AUTHORITY AND AUTHORIZATION: Lessee represents, warrants and covenants that (a) it will do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its existence, and (ii) subject to Section 8 hereof, the Lease; (b) it has complied with all bidding and
budgeting requirements where necessary and by due notification has presented this Lease for approval and adoption as a valid obligation on its part and
that all requirements have been met and procedures have been followed to ensure the enforceability of the Lease; (c) it has sufficient appropriations or
other funds available to pay all amounts due hereunder for the current fiscal year period; (d) no event has occurred and no condition exists which, upon
the execution of this Lease or with notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a default under any debt, revenue or purchase obligation which
it has issued or to which it is a party (the "Obligation ") nor has it been in default under any Obligation at any time during the past five (5) years, and (e)
no lease, rental agreement or contract for purchase, to which Lessee has been a party, at any time during the past five (5) years, has been terminated by
Lessee as a result of insufficient funds being appropriated in any fiscal period.
6. LESSEE CERTIFICATION: Lessee warrants and covenants that (i) it is a state, or a political subdivision thereof, within the meaning of Section 103 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code "), and the related regulations and rulings thereunder; (ii) subject to Section 8 hereof,
Lessee's obligation under this Lease constitutes an enforceable obligation issued by or on behalf of a state, or political subdivision thereof, such that any
interest income derived under this Lease and due Lessor or its Assignee, including, but not limited to, those amounts designated as interest in Exhibit C,
will not be includable in the gross income of Lessor, its Assignee or any participants with such for the purposes of federal income taxation; (iii) this
Lease represents a valid deferred payment obligation of Lessee for the amount herein set forth; (iv) Lessee has the legal capacity to enter into this Lease
and is not in contravention of any state, county, district, city or town statute, rule, regulation or other governmental provision; (v) during the Lease Term,
the Equipment will not be used in a trade or business of any other person or entity; (vi) Lessee will complete and file on a timely basis, Internal Revenue
Service form 8038G or 8038GC, as appropriate, in the manner set forth in Section 149(e) of the Code; (vii) Lessee will not take any action or permit the
omission of any action reasonably within its control which action or omission will cause the interest portion of any Rental Payment hereunder to be
includable in gross income for federal income taxation purposes.; (viii) Rental Payments represent the fair value of the use of the respective Equipment,
and that the Purchase Price represents the fair purchase price of the Equipment and the Rental Payments do not exceed a reasonable amount so as to
place the Lessee under an economic or practical compulsion to appropriate moneys to make Rental Payments under the Lease or to exercise its option
to purchase the Equipment pursuant to the Exhibit C. In making such determinations, Lessee has given consideration to the current market value of the
Equipment, the cost of acquiring the Equipment and the option to purchase the Equipment; and (ix) the duration of the Lease Term does not exceed the
weighted average useful life of the Equipment.
7. APPROPRIATIONS AND ESSENTIAL USE: Lessee reasonably believes that sufficient funds can be obtained to make all Rental Payments during the
Lease Term. The responsible financial officer of Lessee will do all things lawfully within his or her power to obtain funds from which the Rental
Payments, including any Rental Payments required by Section 4 hereof, may be made, including making provisions for such payments, to the extent
necessary, in each proposed annual budget submitted for approval in accordance with applicable procedures of Lessee. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the decision whether or not to budget or appropriate funds or to extend this Lease for any subsequent annual fiscal period is solely within the discretion
of the then current governing body of Lessee. It is Lessee's current intent to make the Rental Payments for the full Lease Term if funds are legally
available therefore, and in that regard Lessee represents that (a) the use of the Equipment is essential to its proper, efficient, and economic functioning
or to the services that it provides to its citizens; (b) Lessee has an immediate need for and expects to make immediate use of substantially all the
Equipment, which need is not temporary or expected to diminish in the foreseeable future; and (c) the Equipment will be used by the Lessee only for the
purpose of performing one or more of its govemmental or proprietary functions consistent with the permissible scope of its authority.
8. NONAPPROPRIATION OF FUNDS: In the event no funds or insufficient funds are appropriated and budgeted or otherwise made available for Rental
Payments, including any Rental Payments required by Section 4 hereof, for any fiscal period in which the Rental Payments for the Equipment are due
under this Lease, then, without penalty, liability or expense to Lessee, this Lease will thereafter terminate and be rendered null and void on the last day of
the fiscal period for which appropriations were made, except as to (i) the portions of the Rental Payments herein agreed upon for which funds have been
appropriated and budgeted or are otherwise available and (ii) Lessee's other obligations and liabilities under this Lease relating to, accruing or arising
prior to such termination. Lessee will, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the end of such applicable fiscal period, in writing, notify Lessor and any
Assignee of such occurrence, but failure to give such notice will not prevent such termination. In the event of such termination, Lessee agrees to
peaceably surrender possession of the Equipment to Lessor or its Assignee on the day of such termination, packed for shipment in accordance with
manufacturer's specifications and eligible for manufacturer's maintenance, and freight prepaid and insured to any location in the continental United
States designated by Lessor, all at Lessee's expense, Lessor or its Assignee may exercise all available legal and equitable rights and remedies in
retaking possession of the Equipment.
9. EXCLUSION OF WARRANTIES; LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY; DISCLAIMER OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES: LESSEE HAS SELECTED
BOTH THE EQUIPMENT AND THE VENDOR(S) FROM WHOM LESSOR IS TO PURCHASE THE EQUIPMENT IN RELIANCE HEREON.
LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE EQUIPMENT IS OF A SIZE, DESIGN AND CAPACITY SELECTED BY LESSEE, THAT
LESSOR IS NOT A MANUFACTURER, VENDOR, DISTRIBUTOR OR LICENSOR OF SUCH EQUIPMENT, AND THAT LESSOR LEASES THE
EQUIPMENT AS IS AND HAS NOT MADE, AND DOES NOT HEREBY MAKE, ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE MERCHANTABILITY, CONDITION, QUALITY, DURABILITY, DESIGN, OPERATION,
FITNESS FOR USE, OR SUITABILITY OF THE EQUIPMENT IN ANY RESPECT WHATSOEVER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR FOR THE
PURPOSES AND USES OF LESSEE, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT THERETO INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF TITLE OR AGAINST INFRINGEMENT OR ANY
WARRANTIES ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE OR PRACTICE, ALL OF WHICH ARE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMED BY
LESSOR AND IN NO EVENT SHALL LESSOR BE OBLIGATED OR LIABLE FOR ACTUAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER
DAMAGES OF OR TO LESSEE OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE EQUIPMENT,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE SALE, LEASE, USE, PERFORMANCE OR MAINTENANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING
INTERRUPTION OF SERVICE, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF REVENUE OR PROFIT, LOSS OF TIME OR BUSINESS, OR ANY SIMILAR LOSS,
EVEN IF ANY SUCH PERSON IS ADVISED IN ADVANCE OF THE POSSIBILITY OR CERTAINTY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF LESSEE
ASSERTS OR ESTABLISHES A FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY PROVIDED IN THIS LEASE.
Lessee acknowledges that neither the original vendor nor licensor of the Equipment (including the salespersons of any of them) is an agent of Lessor,
nor are they authorized to waive or alter any terms of this Lease. Lessee hereby waives any claim (including any claim based on strict or absolute liability
in tort) it might have against Lessor or any assignee of the Lessor for any loss, damage or expense caused by or with respect to the Equipment. Lessor
hereby assigns to Lessee during the Lease Term, to the extent permitted by law, all manufacturer's warranties, if any, that it may have with respect to the
Equipment, and Lessor authorizes Lessee to obtain the customary services furnished in connection with such warranties at Lessee's expense. Lessor
authorizes Lessee, to the extent permitted by law, to enforce in its own name any warranty, representation or other claim enforceable against the
manufacturer. Lessor assumes no responsibility for shipment, delivery, installation or maintenances, and all claims of Lessee with respect thereto,
whether for delay, damage or otherwise, will be made against the manufacturer. Lessor, at its option, may provide in its purchase order that the
manufacturer agrees that any of such claims may be made by Lessee directly against the manufacturer. The obligation of Lessee to pay the Rental
Payments as defined in Section 4 will not be abated, impaired or reduced by reason of any claims of Lessee with respect to the Equipment, including but
not limited to its condition, quality, workmanship, delivery, shipment, installation, defects or otherwise.
10. TITLE TO THE EQUIPMENT. The Equipment shall be acquired pursuant to a contract or purchase order issued by the City of Pueblo, CO, (the "City")
which contract or purchase order shall provide that legal title to the Equipment acquired thereunder be vested in Lessor, subject to the beneficial interest
of Lessee hereunder. Notwithstanding this method of acquisition, neither 'The City' no the Lessee shall be deemed to be the "Vendor" of the
equipment under this Lease pursuant to the terms of such contract or purchase order. During the Lease Term, title to the Equipment and any and all
additions, repairs, replacements or modifications thereto shall be in Lessor; provided, however, that in the event this Lease is terminated by reason of the
occurrence of an event described in Sections 3, 20, or 21 hereof, title to the Equipment will be transferred to the Lessee. In the event that the provisions
of Section 20 are availed of by Lessor, or in the case of an Event of Nonappropriation as set forth in Section 8 hereof, Lessee will surrender its interest in
and possession of the Equipment to Lessor.
11. PERSONAL PROPERTY: The Equipment is, and will remain, personal property and will not be deemed to be affixed or attached to real property or any
building thereon. If requested by Lessor, Lessee will, at Lessee's expense, fumish to Lessor landlord or mortgagee waiver with respect to the
Equipment.
12. USE; REPAIRS: Lessee will use the Equipment in a careful manner for the use contemplated by the manufacturer of the Equipment and will comply
with all laws, ordinances, insurance policies and regulations relating to, and will pay all costs, claims, damages, fees and charges arising out of, its
possession, use or maintenance. Lessee, at its sole costs and expense, will maintain the Equipment according to the manufacturer's recommended
guidelines or the equivalent and meet any and all recertification requirements and will furnish proof of such maintenance, if requested by Lessor and will
furnish all needed servicing and parts, which parts will become part of the Equipment. If the Equipment is such as is customarily covered by a
maintenance agreement, Lessee will fumish Lessor with a maintenance agreement with a party satisfactory to Lessor.
13. ALTERATIONS: Lessee will not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Equipment without Lessor's prior written consent, and any
permitted alteration or attachment which cannot be readily removed without damaging the Equipment's originally intended function or value will become
part of the Equipment.
14. LOCATION; INSPECTION: The Equipment will not be removed from, or if the Equipment consists of rolling stock, its permanent base will not be
changed from the Equipment Location without Lessor's prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Lessor will be entitled to
enter upon the Equipment Location or elsewhere during reasonable business hours to inspect the Equipment or observe its use and operations.
15. LIENS AND TAXES: Lessee will keep the Equipment free and clear of all levies, liens and encumbrances except those created under this Lease.
Lessee will pay, when due, all charges and taxes (federal, state and local) which may now or hereafter be imposed upon the ownership, leasing, rental,
sale, purchase, possession or use of the Equipment, excluding however, all taxes on or measured by Lessor's income. if Lessee fails to pay said
charges and taxes when due, Lessor will have the right, but will not be obligated, to pay said charges and taxes. If Lessor pays any charges or taxes for
which Lessee is responsible or liable under this Lease, Lessee will, upon demand, reimburse Lessor therefor.
16. RISK OF LOSS; DAMAGE; DESTRUCTION: Lessee assumes all risk of loss of or damage to the Equipment from any cause whatsoever, and no
such loss of or damage to the Equipment will relieve Lessee of the obligation to make the Rental Payments or to perform any other obligation under this
Lease. In the event of damage to any item of Equipment, Lessee will immediately place the same in good repair (the proceeds of any insurance recovery
will be applied to the cost of such repair). If Lessor determines that any item of Equipment is lost, stolen, destroyed or damaged beyond repair, Lessee,
at the option of Lessor, will (a) replace the same with like equipment in good repair; or (b) on the next Rental Payment date pay to Lessor (i) all amounts
owed by Lessee under this Lease, including the Rental Payment due on such date, and (ii) an amount not less than the balance of the Rental Payments
then remaining unpaid hereunder. In the event that Lessee is obligated to make such payment with respect to less than all of the Equipment, Lessor will
provide Lessee with the pro rata amount of the Rental Payment and the balance of the Rental Payments then remaining unpaid hereunder, as applicable,
to be made by Lessee with respect to the Equipment which has suffered the event of loss.
17. INSURANCE: Lessee will, at its expense, maintain at all times during the Lease Term (a) fire and extended coverage, public liability and property
damage insurance with respect to the Equipment in such amounts, covering such risks, and with such insurers as will be satisfactory to Lessor. In no
event will the insurance limits be less than the greater of (i) an amount equal to the balance of the Rental Payments then remaining for the Lease Term
or (ii) any minimum required by any co-insurance provisions of such insurance, (b) liability insurance that protects Lessor from liability in all events in
form and amount satisfactory to Lessor, and (c) workers' compensation coverage as required by the laws of the state in which Lessee is located. Each
insurance policy required by clause (b) of the preceding sentence will name Lessee as an insured and Lessor or its assigns as an additional insured and
loss payee, as appropriate, and each insurance policy required by the preceding sentence will contain a clause requiring the insurer to give Lessor or its
Assignee at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any alteration in the terms of such policy or the cancellation thereof. The proceeds of any such
policies will be payable to Lessee and Lessor or its assigns, as their interest may appear. Upon acceptance of the Equipment and upon each insurance
renewal date, Lessee will deliver to Lessor a certificate evidencing such insurance. In the event of any loss, damage, injury or accident involving the
Equipment, Lessee will promptly provide Lessor with written notice hereof and make available to Lessor all information and documentation relating
thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with Lessor's prior written consent, Lessee may self- insure against any and all risks for which insurance is
required.
18. INDEMNIFICATION: To the extent permitted by law, and solely from legally available funds, Lessee agrees to indemnify Lessor against, and hold
Lessor, its Assignees, or any participants with such, harmless from, any and all claims, actions, proceedings, expenses, damages, liabilities or losses
(including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees and court costs) arising in connection with the Equipment, including, but not limited to, its selection,
purchase, delivery, possession, use, operation or return and the recovery of claims under insurance policies thereon.
19. EVENTS OF DEFAULT: The Term "Event of Default" as used in this Lease, means the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: (a)
Lessee fails to make any Rental Payment (or any other payment) as it becomes due in accordance with the terms of this Lease, and any such failure
continues for ten (10) days after the date thereof; (b) Lessee fails to perform or observe any other covenant, condition or agreement to be performed or
observed by it hereunder and such failure is not cured within ten (10) days after written notice thereof by Lessor; (c) the discovery by Lessor that any
statement, representation or warranty made by Lessee in this Lease or in any document delivered by Lessee pursuant hereto or in connection herewith is
false, misleading or erroneous in any material respect; (d) Lessee becomes insolvent, is unable to pay its debts as they become due, makes an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, applies or consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, conservator or liquidator of Lessee or of all or
substantial part of its assets, a petition for relief is filed by Lessee under federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws, or a petition in a proceeding
under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws, is filed against Lessee and is not dismissed within thirty (30) days thereafter; (e) Lessee suffers an
adverse material change in its financial condition or operations from the date hereof and, as a result, Lessor deems itself insecure; or (f) Lessee is in
default under any other agreement executed at any time with Lessor, its affiliates or Lessor's Assignee or under any other agreement or instrument by
which it is bound.
20. REMEDIES: Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lessor may, at its option, exercise any one or more of the following remedies: (a) by written
notice to Lessee, declare an amount equal to all amounts then due under this Lease and all remaining Rental Payments which will become due during
the then current fiscal year of Lessee to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same will become immediately due and payable; (together with

property or otherwise; (c) sell or lease the Equipment or sublease it for the account of Lessee, holding Lessee liable for (i) all Rental Payments and other
payments due to the effective date of such selling, leasing or subleasing, and (ii) for the difference between the purchase price, rental and other

through the end of the then current fiscal year of Lessee hereunder; and (d) exercise any other right, remedy or privilege which may be available to it
under applicable law, including the right to (i) proceed by appropriate court action to enforce the terms of this Lease, (ii) recover damages for the breach
of this Lease, and (iii) rescind this Lease as to any or all of the Equipment.
In addition, Lessee will remain liable for all covenants and indemnities under this Lease and for all legal fees and other costs and expenses, including
court costs, incurred by Lessor with respect to the enforcement of any of the remedies listed above or any other remedy available to Lessor.
21. EARLY PURCHASE OPTION: Lessee may, upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to Lessor, and provided Lessee has fully paid and performed all
other obligations hereunder and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, pay to Lessor the applicable amount set forth on Exhibit C
attached hereto, whereupon title to the Equipment will become unconditionally vested in Lessee, and Lessor will transfer any and all of its right, title and

Re: State and Municipal Lease/Purchase Agreement No. 1001112 -001, dated
December 19, 2012 (the "Lease "), between Commerce Bank ( "Lessor ") and
Pueblo, a Municipal Corporation ( "Lessee ")
Ladies and Gentlemen:
As legal counsel to Lessee, I have examined (a) the Lease, which, among other things
provides for the sale to and purchase by the Lessee of the Equipment, (b) an executed
counterpart of the ordinance or resolution of Lessee which, among other things, authorizes
Lessee to execute the Lease and (c) such other opinions, documents and matters of law as I have
deemed necessary in connection with the following opinions.
Based on the foregoing, I am of the following opinions:
1. Lessee is a public body corporate and politic, duly organized and existing under
the laws of the State, and has a substantial amount of one or more of the following sovereign
powers: (a) the power to tax, (b) the power of eminent domain, and (c) police power.
2. Lessee has the requisite power and authority to purchase the Equipment and to
execute and deliver the Lease and to perform its obligations under the Lease.
3. The Lease and the other documents either attached thereto or required therein
have been duly organized, approved and executed by and on behalf of Lessee, and the Lease is a
valid and binding obligation of Lessee enforceable in accordance with its terms.
4. The authorization, approval and execution of the Lease and all other proceedings
of Lessee relating to the transactions contemplated thereby have been performed in accordance
with all open meeting laws, public bidding laws and all other applicable state and federal laws.
5. There is no proceeding pending or threatened in any court or before any
governmental authority or arbitration board or tribunal that, if adversely determined, would
adversely affect the transactions contemplated by the Lease or the security interest of Lessor or
its assigns, as the case may be, in the Equipment.
Furthermore, I confirm that the name of the Lessee as stated in the Lease, as Pueblo, a
Municipal Corporation, is the exact legal name of the Lessee for all purposes contemplated
herein.
All capitalized terms herein shall have the same meanings as in the Lease. Lessor, its
successors and assigns and any counsel rendering an opinion on the tax- exempt status of the
interest components of Rental Payments are entitled to rely on this opinion.
Very truly yours,

Re: State and Municipal Lease /Purchase Agreement No. 1001112 -001, dated December 19, 2012 (the
"Lease "), between Commerce Bank ( "Lessor ") and City of Pueblo, A Municipal Corporation ( "Lessee ")
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This confirms and affirms that the Equipment described in the Lease is essential to the function of the undersigned or to the
service we provide to our citizens.
Further, we have an immediate need for, and expect to make immediate use of, substantially all such Equipment, which need
is not temporary or expected to diminish in the foreseeable future. Such Equipment will be used for the purpose or performing
one or more of our governmental or proprietary functions consistent with the permissible scope of our authority. Specifically,
such Equipment was selected by us to be used as follows: Turf and grounds maintenance operations within the Golf
Course Enterprise, which includes Elmwood and Walking Stick Golf Courses.
The estimated useful life of such Equipment based upon manufacturer's representations and our projected needs is five
years.
Our source of funds for payments of the Rental Payments due under the Lease for the current fiscal year is the Golf Course
Enterprise. The Rental Payments will be paid by Elmwood and Walking Stick Golf Courses.
We currently expect and anticipate adequate funds to be available for all future payments of rent due after the current fiscal
year for the following reasons:
The Golf Course Enterprise is self - sustaining and derives all operating expenses through fees. The Golf Course
Enterprise has been more than efficient in meeting and exceeding yearly revenue projections.
Very truly yours,

clause (a) of this paragraph, any amount remaining in the Acquisition Fund shall be used to prepay the
principal portion of Rental Payments unless Lessor directs that payment of such amount be made in such
other manner directed by Lessor that, in the opinion of nationally recognized counsel in the area of
tax - exempt municipal obligations satisfactory to Lessor, will not adversely affect the exclusion of the
interest components of Rental Payments from gross income for federal income tax purposes. If any such
amount is used to prepay principal, the Rental Payment Schedule attached to the Lease shall be revised
accordingly as specified by Lessor. Upon termination as described in clause (b) of this paragraph, any
amount remaining in the Acquisition Fund shall immediately be paid to Lessor or to any assignees or

appointed by an instrument in writing executed by Lessor and Lessee. Such successor Escrow Agent
shall indicate its acceptance of such appointment by an instrument in writing delivered to Lessor, Lessee
and the predecessor Escrow Agent. Thereupon such successor Escrow Agent shall, without any further

act or deed, be fully vested with all the trusts, powers, rights, duties and obligations of the Escrow Agent
under this Escrow Agreement and the predecessor Escrow Agent shall deliver all moneys and securities

remedies, immunities and privileges hereunder as was its predecessor, without the execution or filing of
any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

Escrow Agreement except from funds held in the Acquisition Fund. The Escrow Agent makes no
representations or warranties as to the title to any Equipment listed in the Lease or as to the performance

it, in good faith, believes to be genuine, may assume the validity and accuracy of any statement or
assertion contained in such a writing or instrument, and may assume that any person purporting to give
any writing, notice, advice or instructions in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly
authorized to do so. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any manner for the sufficiency or
correctness as to form, manner and execution, or validity of this Escrow Agreement other than its own
execution thereof or any instrument deposited with it, nor as to the identity, authority or right of any
person executing the same; and its duties hereunder shall be limited to those specifically provided herein.
13. Unless the Escrow Agent is guilty of negligence or willful misconduct with regard to its
duties hereunder, Lessee, to the extent permitted by law, and Lessor jointly and severally hereby agree to
indemnify the Escrow Agent and hold it harmless from any and all claims, liabilities, losses, actions, suits
or proceedings at law or in equity, or any other expense, fees or charges of any character or nature, which
it may incur or with which it may be threatened by reason of its acting as Escrow Agent under this
Escrow Agreement; and in connection therewith, to indemnify the Escrow Agent against any and all
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and the cost of defending any action, suit or proceeding or

from Lessor of reasonable out -of- pocket, legal or extraordinary expenses incurred in carrying out the
duties, terms or provisions of this Escrow Agreement. Claims for such reimbursement may be made to
Lessor and in no event shall such reimbursement be made from funds held by the Escrow Agent pursuant
to this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent agrees that it will not assert any lien whatsoever on any of
-3-
the money or Qualified Investments on deposit in the Escrow Fund for the payment of fees and expenses
for services rendered by the Escrow Agent under this Escrow Agreement or otherwise.
15. If Lessee, Lessor or the Escrow Agent shall be in disagreement about the interpretation of
the Lease or this Escrow Agreement, or about the rights and obligations, or the propriety of any action
contemplated by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow Agent may, but shall not be required to, file an
appropriate civil action to resolve the disagreement. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified by Lessor
and Lessee, to the extent permitted by law, for all costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses, in connection with such civil action, and shall be fully protected in suspending all or part of its
activities under this Escrow Agreement until a final judgment in such action is received.
16. The Escrow Agent may consult with counsel of its own choice and shall have full and
complete authorization and protection for any action or non - action taken by the Escrow Agent in
accordance with the opinion of such counsel. The Escrow Agent shall otherwise not be liable for any
mistakes of facts or errors of judgment, or for any acts or omissions of any kind unless caused by its
negligence or willful misconduct.
17. This Escrow Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the state in which the Escrow Agent is located.

unenforceable any other provision hereof.
19. This Escrow Agreement may not be amended except by a written instrument executed by
Lessor, Lessee and the Escrow Agent.
20. This Escrow Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which so
executed shall be an original.

EXHIBIT A
ARBITRAGE INSTRUCTIONS
These Arbitrage Instructions provide procedures for complying with § 148 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code "), in order to preserve the exclusion from federal gross
income of the interest portions of the Rental Payments under the Lease.
1. Temporary Period/Yield Restriction. Except as described in this paragraph, money in
the Acquisition Fund must not be invested at a yield greater than the yield on the Lease. Proceeds of the
Lease in the Acquisition Fund and investment earnings on such proceeds may be invested without yield
restriction for three years after the Start Date of the Lease. If any unspent proceeds remain in the
Acquisition Fund after three years, such amounts may continue to be invested without yield restriction so
long as Lessee pays to the IRS all yield reduction payments under § 1.148 -5(c) of the Treasury
Regulations.
2. Opinion of Bond Counsel. These Arbitrage Instructions may be modified or amended in
whole or in part upon receipt of an opinion of nationally recognized counsel in the area of tax - exempt
municipal obligations, satisfactory to Lessor, that such modifications and amendments will not adversely
affect the exclusion of the interest components of Rental Payments from gross income for federal income
tax purposes.
