damaged or impaired by the removal of such machinery, equipment or other tangible property.

The City is, simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Project Fund Agreement,
executing and delivering a Lease Agreement dated as of March 2, 2018 (the "Lease Agreement"), by
and between the City and BB&T. The purpose of the Lease Agreement is to provide for BB&T's
advance of$488,950.00 to the City to finance the City's acquisition of equipment, as defined in the

NOW,THEREFORE,the parties agree as follows:
SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS
In this Project Fund Agreement, the term "Project Costs" means all costs of the design,
planning, acquiring, installing of the Equipment as determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and that will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income
for federal income tax purposes of the designated interest component of Installment Payments
payable by the City under the Lease Agreement, including (a) sums required to reimburse the City or
its agents for advances made for any such costs, (b) interest during the installation process and for
up to six months thereafter, and (c) all costs related to the financing of the Equipment through the
Lease Agreement and all related transactions.
In addition, any capitalized terms used in this Project Fund Agreement and not otherwise
defined shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Lease Agreement.
SECTION 2. PROJECT FUND.
2.1. Project Fund. On the Closing Date, BB&T will deposit $488,950.00 into a special
account of the City at Branch Banking and Trust Company to be designated "2018-00002 City of
Pueblo Project Fund" (the "Project Fund"). This account shall be held separate and apart from all
other funds of the City. The Project Fund is the City's property, but the City will withdraw amounts
on deposit in the Project Fund only as provided in the Project Fund Agreement and only for
application from time to time to the payment of Project Costs. Pending such application, such
amounts shall be subject to a lien and charge in favor of BB&T to secure the City's obligations

2.2. Requisitions from Project Fund. The City may withdraw funds from the Project

the City and only upon its receipt of written requisitions from one of the designated Authorized
Representatives named in the Certificate of Authorized Representatives contained herein and
substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.
2.3. Disposition of Project Fund Balance.
(a) Upon completion -- Promptly after the acquisition and installation of the Equipment
has been completed, the City shall deliver to BB&T a certificate to such effect signed by a City

(b) Upon default -- Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, BB&T may withdraw
any balance remaining in the Project Fund and apply such balance against outstanding Required

(c) Upon event of nonappropriation — Upon an event of nonappropriation, BB&T may
withdraw any balance remaining in the Project Fund and apply such balance against outstanding
Required Payments.
(d) After delay or inactivity-- If (i) more than two years have elapsed from the
Closing Date or(ii) at least six months has passed from BB&T's most recent receipt of a requisition
for Project Costs, then BB&T, upon 30 days' notice from BB&T to the City, may withdraw any

Payments.
(e) Application of Project Fund balance -- BB&T will apply any amounts paid to it
pursuant to this section (i) first against all Additional Payments then due and payable, (ii) then to

prepayment, however, will not affect any other City payment obligation under the Lease
Agreement. BB&T will notify the City of any withdrawal from the Project Fund made under this
Section 2.3, and in the notice will describe its application of the funds withdrawn.
2.4. Investment. (a) The City and BB&T agree that money in the Project Fund will be
continuously invested and reinvested in a public funds money rate savings account.
(b) From and after the date that is three years from the Closing Date, the City will not
purchase or hold any investment which has a "yield," as determined under the Code, in excess of the
"yield" on the City's obligations under the Lease Agreement, unless the City has supplied BB&T
with a Bond Counsel Opinion to the effect that such investment will not adversely affect the
exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes to which the interest components of
Installment Payments would otherwise be entitled.
2
(c) Investment obligations acquired with money in the Project Fund shall be deemed at
all times to be part of the Project Fund. The interest accruing thereon and any profit or loss realized

March 2, 2018
City of Pueblo, Colorado
Branch Banking and Trust Company("BB&T")
Charlotte,Colorado
$488,950.00 Lease Financing for the City of Pueblo,Colorado
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I have represented the City of Pueblo, Colorado (the "City"), in connection with the City's authorization,
execution and delivery of the following:
(1) A Lease Agreement dated as of March 2,2018(the"Lease Agreement"),between the City and BB&T;
and
(2) A Project Fund Agreement dated as of March 2, 2018 (the "Project Fund Agreement"), between the
City and BB&T.
In this connection,I have reviewed(a)the Constitution of the State of Colorado and other applicable law;(b)
certain proceedings taken by the City, including a resolution(the "Resolution"),duly adopted by the City,pertaining
to the authorization of the Lease Agreement and related transactions; (c) an executed copy of the Lease Agreement;
and the Project Fund Agreement (the "Agreements") (d) such other information and documents as I have deemed
relevant in order to render this opinion.
Based upon the foregoing, it is my opinion that:
1. The City is a Colorado public body duly existing pursuant to Colorado law.
2. The City has duly adopted the Resolution.
3. The City has duly authorized, executed and delivered each Agreement. Assuming the due
authorization, execution and delivery of an Agreement by every other party thereto, each such Agreement
constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the City enforceable in accordance with its terms. The enforceability
of the City's obligations with respect to the Agreement is subject to the provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights. The enforceability of
such obligations is also subject to usual equity principles, which may limit the specific enforcement of certain
remedies.
4. No further approval, consent or withholding of objections is required from any federal, state or
local government authority with respect to the City's entering into the Lease Agreement, the City's performing
its obligations thereunder or the transactions contemplated thereby. The City has complied with all required
public-bidding procedures regarding the Equipment (as defined in the Lease Agreement) and the transactions
contemplated by the Lease Agreement.
5. All of the Equipment described in the Lease Agreement as intended to be financed by the City will
be personal property when installed as expected, and no portion will be real property or a "fixture" within the
meaning of the Colorado Uniform Commercial Code.
6. To the best of my knowledge after reasonable investigation, neither (a) the adoption of the
Resolution, nor (b) the execution and delivery of the Lease Agreement or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby, nor (c) the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and conditions of the Lease
Agreement breaches or violates any provision of any contract, lease, instrument or other agreement or any
judgment, order or decree of any court or other governmental authority to which the City is a party or by which
the City is bound. No event or condition has happened or existed,or is happening or existing,under the provisions
of any such instrument which, at this time, constitutes a default or which, with notice or lapse of time or both,
would constitute an event of default under any such contract, lease, instrument or other agreement or any such
judgment, order or decree.
7. There is no litigation or any proceeding before any governmental agency pending or, to the best
of my knowledge after reasonable investigation, threatened against the City(or any official thereof in an official
capacity)with respect to (a)the City's organization or existence, (b)the City's authority to execute and deliver the
Lease Agreement, to adopt the Resolution or to comply with the terms thereof, (c) the transactions contemplated
by the Lease Agreement and the Resolution, (d) the title to office of any City governing board member or any
other City officer, or (e) any authority or proceedings relating to the City's execution or delivery of the Lease
Agreement.
Very truly yours,
Daniel C. Kogovsek
City Attorney
