STATEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AS CREATING OR CONSTITUTING A G ENERAL

PAYMENT OBLIGATION OF THE CITY IN ANY FISCAL YEAR BEYOND A FISCAL
YEAR FOR WHICH THE CITY HAS APPROPRIATED AMOUNTS TO MAKE PAYMENTS
UNDER THE LEASE. THE CITY SHALL HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO MAKE ANY
PAYMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE SERIES 1995 CERTIFICATES EXCEPT IN
CONNECTION WITH THE PAYMENT OF THE BASE RENTALS AND ADDITIONAL
RENTALS (AS DEFINED IN THE LEASE) AND CERTAIN OTHER PAYMENTS UNDER
THE LEASE, WHICH PAYMENTS MAY BE TERMINATED BY THE CITY IN

Lease. The City Council hereby determines and declares that the Base Rentals represent the fair
value of the use of the Project; and that the Purchase Option Price (as defined in the Lease)
represents the fair purchase price of the Project. The City Council hereby determines and
declares that the Base Rentals do not exceed a reasonable amount so as to place the City under
an economic or practical compulsion to renew the Lease or to exercise its option to purchase the
Project pursuant to the Lease. In making such determinations, the City Council has given
consideration to the cost of financing the Project, the uses and purposes for which the Project
will be employed by the City, the benefit to the citizens and residents of the City by reason of
02/83563.3 7

the Lease, the option of the City to purchase the Project, and the expected eventual vesting of
title to the Project in the City. The City Council hereby determines and declares that the

standards as would be necessary if the acquisition, construction and equipping of the Project
were performed by the City other than pursuant to the Lease. The City Council hereby
determines and declares that the period during which the City has an option to purchase the
Project (i.e., the maximum term of the Lease, including all Renewal Terms) does not exceed
the useful life of the Project.
Section 20. Determination of Rental Value of Site. The City Council hereby determines
and declares that Rent to be received for the Site under the Ground Lease after a Termination
Event under the Lease (all as defined in the Ground Lease and the Lease) will represent the fair
rental value of the Site. The City Council hereby determines and declares that the procedure
for determining the amount of the Rent to be paid after a Termination Event will result in a Rent
which is not less than the fair rental value of the Site so as to place the City under an economic
or practical compulsion to renew the Lease or to exercise its option to purchase the Project
pursuant to the Lease. In making such determinations, the City Council has given consideration
to an evaluation by the staff of the City of the fair market rental value of the Site, the user and
purposes for which the Site will be employed by the City, the benefit to the citizens and
residents of the City by reason of the of the use of the Project, the option of the City to purchase
the Project, and the expected eventual vesting of title to the Project in the City.

represents that it reasonably anticipates to issue (and has issued), together with governmental
entities which derive their issuing authority from the City or are subject to substantial control
by the City, not more than an aggregate total of $10,000,000 of governmental or qualified
section 501(c)(3) organization bonds (as defined in the Code) during calendar year 1995. The
City recognizes that governmental bonds include tax- exempt obligations such as notes, leases,
loans and warrants. The City hereby designates the Series 1995 Certificates as qualified tax -
exempt obligations within the meaning of Section 265 of the Code, allowing banks, thrift
institutions and other financial institutions to avoid the loss of 100 % of any otherwise available
interest deduction in direct proportion to such institutions' tax- exempt holdings.
Section 22. Exercise of Home Rule Powers of the City. In authorizing and approving
the actions herein set forth, it is the intent of the City Council of the City to exercise the home
rule powers of the City granted pursuant to the Colorado Constitution and the Charter, and the
City Council of the City hereby finds, determines and declares that the matters herein referred
to are matters of local or municipal concern and are appropriate for the exercise of the home
rule powers of the City.

by the City in conflict with this Ordinance are hereby repealed, except that this repealer shall
02/83563.3 8
not be construed to revive any ordinance, act, order or resolution, or part thereof, heretofore

Ordinance shall be adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable, the invalidity or unenforceability
of such section, paragraph, clause or provision shall not affect any of the remaining sections,

(d) The Lessor acknowledges and recognizes that this Lease will be terminated
at the end of the Original Term or any Renewal Term in the event that sufficient funds
are not budgeted and appropriated by the City, specifically with respect to this Lease, to
continue paying all Base Rentals and Additional Rentals during the next occurring
Renewal Term, and that the acts of budgeting and appropriating funds are legislative acts
and, as such, are solely within the discretion of the City Council.
(e) The Lessor agrees that so long as any of the Certificates are Outstanding
or any amounts due to the Certificate Insurer remain unpaid, it will maintain its
existence, will continue to be qualified to do business in the State, will maintain its
principal place of business in the State, will not dissolve and will not consolidate with
or merge into another legal entity or permit one or more other legal entities to
consolidate with or merge into it.
(f) There is no litigation or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the
Lessor, threatened against the Lessor or any other person affecting the right of the Lessor
021%2116.4 11
to execute or deliver this Lease, the Ground Lease or the Indenture or to comply with
its obligations under this Lease, the Ground Lease or the Indenture. Neither the
execution and delivery of this Lease, the Ground Lease or the Indenture by the Lessor,
nor compliance by the Lessor with its obligations under this Lease, the Ground Lease and
the Indenture, require the approval of any regulatory body, any parent company, or any
other entity, which approval has not been obtained.
(g) This Lease constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Lessor
enforceable in accordance with its terms.

the Original Term and the Renewal Terms, if any.

to the Lessor pursuant to the Ground Lease; and that the City and the Lessor intend that there

or an impairment of the leasehold and subleasehold interests intended to be created by the
Ground Lease or this Lease.

estimated Additional Rentals for such ensuing Renewal Term, all as further provided in

the Lessor, except as expressly required or permitted by this Lease, the Ground Lease or the
Indenture. The Lessor shall not interfere with the quiet use and enjoyment of the Project and
the Site by the City during the Lease Term, so long as the Lease Term shall be in effect. The
Lessor shall, at the request of the City and at the cost of the City, join and cooperate fully in

ARTICLE VI
PAYMENTS BY THE CITY
Section 6.01. Payments to Constitute Currently Budgeted Expenditures of the City.
The City and the Lessor acknowledge and agree that the Base Rentals and Additional Rentals
hereunder shall constitute currently budgeted expenditures of the City. The obligations of the
City under this Lease shall be from year to year only (as further provided in Sections 4.01,
4.02, 6.02 and 6.06 hereof), and shall not constitute a mandatory payment obligation of the City
in any fiscal year beyond a fiscal year during which this Lease shall be in effect.
No provision of this Lease shall be construed or interpreted as creating a general
obligation or other indebtedness of the City within the meaning of any constitutional, statutory
or Charter debt limitation. No provision of this Lease shall be construed or interpreted as
creating a delegation of governmental powers nor as a donation by or a lending of the credit of
the City within the meaning of Section 1 or 2 of Article XI of the Constitution of the State.
Neither this Lease nor the issuance of the Certificates shall directly or indirectly obligate the
City to make any payments beyond those appropriated for any fiscal year in which the Lease
shall be in effect. The City shall be under no obligation to exercise its option to purchase the
Project. No provision of this Lease shall be construed to pledge or to create a lien on any class
or source of City moneys, nor shall any provision of this Lease restrict the future issuance of
any City bonds or obligations payable from any class or source of City moneys (provided,
however, that the restrictions of Section 2.11 of the Indenture shall apply to the issuance of
Additional Certificates).
Section 6.02. Base Rentals and Additional Rentals. The City shall pay Base Rentals
directly to the Trustee for distribution to the Registered Owners in accordance with the Indenture
during the Lease Term on the due dates set forth in Exhibit B to this Lease. The Base Rentals
during the Original Term and any Renewal Terms shall be in the amounts in the "Total Base
Rentals" column, as set forth in Exhibit B to this Lease. There shall be credited against the
amount of Base Rentals otherwise payable hereunder all amounts at the time on deposit in the
Certificate Fund and available for such payments to Registered Owners. The initial. Base Rentals
to be paid by the City on May 15, 1996 shall be in consideration for the use of the Project and
the Site by the City from December 1, 1995 until and including June 30, 1996. Thereafter, Base
Rentals due on any November 15 shall be in consideration for the use of the Project and the
Site by the City from the immediately preceding July 1 to and including the immediately
following December 31; and Base Rentals due on any May 15 shall be in consideration for the
use of the Project and the Site by the City from the immediately preceding January 1 to and
including the immediately following June 30.
In the event of any partial redemption of Certificates prior to maturity or upon the
issuance of Additional Certificates, the Base Rentals shall be recalculated by the Trustee, so that
the Base Rentals payable on May 15 and November 15 shall be equal to the amount necessary
02192116.4 15
to pay the principal of and interest on the Certificates coming due on the next June 1 or
December 1, as the case may be.
The City shall pay Additional Rentals during the Lease Term as herein provided. The
Additional Rentals during the Lease Term shall be in an amount sufficient to pay all amounts
payable pursuant to a Qualified Surety Bond, the fees and expenses of the Trustee, payments for
the cost of taxes, insurance premiums, utility charges, maintenance and repair costs, and all
other expenses expressly required to be paid hereunder or under the Indenture, including but not
limited to costs and expenses charged to or incurred by the Lessor at the request of the City and
in its capacity as Lessor hereunder and all amounts payable to the Certificate Insurer hereunder
or under the Indenture, as well as for payments into the Reserve Fund or the Rebate Fund
required by the Indenture. All Additional Rentals shall be paid by the City on a timely basis
directly to the Person or entity to which such Additional Rentals are owed (except that payments
into the Reserve Fund and the Rebate Fund shall be made to the Trustee as provided in the
Indenture). If the estimates of the City of Additional Rentals for any Renewal Term are not
itemized in the budget required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Lessor, the Certificate Insurer
and the Original Purchaser under Section 4.01 of this Lease, the City shall furnish an itemization
of such estimated Additional Rentals to the Trustee, the Lessor, the Certificate Insurer and the
Original Purchaser on or before the December 15 preceding such Renewal Term.
Section 6.03. Interest Component. A portion of each payment of Base Rentals is paid
as, and represents payment of, interest. Exhibit B attached hereto, as it may be amended
hereunder, sets forth the interest component of each payment of Base Rentals.
Section 6.04. Manner of Payment. The Base Rentals and, if paid, the Purchase Option
Price, shall be paid in lawful moneys of the United States of America to the Trustee at its
principal corporate trust office. The obligation of the City to pay the Base Rentals and
Additional Rentals required under this Article and other sections hereof, during the Lease Term,
shall be absolute and unconditional, and payment of the Base Rentals and Additional Rentals
shall not be abated through accident or unforeseen circumstances. Notwithstanding any dispute
between the City and the Lessor, the Trustee, any Registered Owner, any contractor or
subcontractor retained with respect to the Project, any supplier of labor or materials in
connection therewith, or any other person, the City shall, during the Lease Term, make all
payments of Base Rentals and Additional Rentals when due and shall not withhold any Base
Rentals or Additional Rentals pending final resolution of such dispute (except to the extent
permitted by Sections 8.02 and 9.04 hereof with respect to certain Additional Rentals), nor shall
the City assert any right of set -off or counterclaim against its obligation to make such payments
required hereunder. No action or inaction on the part of the Lessor or the Trustee shall affect
the City's obligation to pay all Base Rentals and Additional Rentals (except to the extent
provided by Sections 8.02 and 9.04 hereof with respect to certain Additional Rentals), during
the Lease Term.
Section 6.05. Expression of the City's Need for the Project; Determinations as to Fair
Market Value and Fair Purchase Price. The City hereby declares its current need for the
02/%2116.4 16
Project. It is hereby declared to be the present intention and expectation of the City Council that
this Lease will be renewed annually until title to the Project is acquired by the City pursuant to
this Lease; but this declaration shall not be construed as contractually obligating or otherwise
binding the City. The City and the Lessor hereby agree and determine that the Base Rentals
hereunder during the Original Term and any Renewal Term represent the fair value of the use
of the Project and the Site; and that the Purchase Option Price represents the fair purchase price
of the Project. The City hereby determines that the Base Rentals do not exceed a reasonable
amount so as to place the City under an economic or practical compulsion to renew this Lease
or to exercise its option to purchase the Project hereunder. In making such determinations, the
City and the Lessor have given consideration to the value of the Project, the value of the Site,
the uses and purposes for which the Project will be employed by the City, the benefit to the City
by reason of the leasing of the Project and the use and occupancy of the Project and the Site
pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Lease, the option of the City to purchase the
Project, and the expected eventual vesting of title to the Project in the City. The City hereby
determines and declares that the leasing of the Project and the subleasing of the Site pursuant
to this Lease will result in a Project facility of comparable quality and meeting the same
requirements and standards as would be necessary if the City acquired or constructed a similar
golf course facility other than pursuant to this Lease. The City hereby determines and declares
that the period during which the City has an option to purchase the Project (i.e., the maximum
term of this Lease including all Renewal Terms) does not exceed the useful life of the Project.
Section 6.06. Nonappropriation. In the event that the City Council shall not budget and
appropriate, specifically with respect to this Lease, on or before December 31 of each year,
moneys sufficient to pay all Base Rentals and the reasonably estimated Additional Rentals
coming due for the next ensuing Renewal Term, an Event of Nonappropriation shall be deemed
to have occurred (provided, however, that the Trustee shall declare an Event of
Nonappropriation on any earlier date on which the Trustee receives written notice from the City
that this Lease will not be renewed; and provided further that the Trustee may, with the written
consent of the Certificate Insurer, waive any Event of Nonappropriation which is cured by the
City within a reasonable time if in the judgment of the Trustee such waiver is in the best
interests of the Registered Owners). In the event that during the Original Term or any Renewal
Term, any Additional Rentals shall become due which were not included in the current budget
of the City, or which exceed the amounts which were included therefor in the current budget of
the City, and if there are no moneys available to pay such Additional Rentals pursuant to
Section 3.08 of the Indenture, then, in the event that moneys are not specifically budgeted and
appropriated to pay such Additional Rentals within 90 days subsequent to the date upon which
such Additional Rentals are due, an Event of Nonappropriation shall be deemed to have
occurred, upon notice by the Trustee to the City to such effect (subject to waiver by the Trustee
with the written consent of the Certificate Insurer as hereinbefore provided).
If an Event of Nonappropriation occurs, the City shall not be obligated to make payment
of the Base Rentals or Additional Rentals or any other payments provided for herein which
accrue after the last day of the Original or Renewal Term during which such Event of
Nonappropriation occurs; provided, however, that, subject to the limitations of Section 14.03
02182116.4 17
hereof, the City shall continue to be liable for Base Rentals and Additional Rentals allocable to
any period during which the City shall continue to occupy the Project.
The City shall in all events vacate the Project and the Site (leaving the Equipment) by
the expiration of the Original or Renewal Term during which an Event of Nonappropriation
occurs. The City and the Lessor hereby acknowledge and agree that any termination of this
Lease, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 10.03(b) or Section 14.02 hereof, shall
terminate the City's rights as to the Project, until the Ground Lease expires in accordance with
its terms.
The Trustee, upon the occurrence of an Event of Nonappropriation, shall be entitled to
all moneys then on hand and being held in all funds created under the Indenture, but excluding
the Rebate Fund, for the benefit of the Registered Owners. After the expiration of the Original
or Renewal Term during which an Event of Nonappropriation occurs, the Trustee may, with the
consent of the Certificate Insurer, and shall, at the direction of the Certificate Insurer, proceed
to foreclose on and sell, lease or assign its interest in the Project or any portion thereof, sublease
the Site and exercise the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Colorado Uniform
Commercial Code with respect to the Equipment, as provided in Sections 7.02 and 7.05 of the
Indenture, or take one or any combination of the steps described in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c)
of Section 14.02 of this Lease. All property, funds and rights acquired by the Trustee by reason
of any Event of Nonappropriation as provided herein, less any moneys due and owing to the
Trustee, shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Registered Owners as set forth in the
Indenture.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Nonappropriation, the Trustee shall give notice of
such occurrence to the Certificate Insurer.
Section 6.07. Disposition of Base Rentals. Upon receipt by the Trustee of each
payment of Base Rentals, the Trustee shall apply the amount of such Base Rentals in the
following manner and order:
First, the amount of such payment of Base Rentals designated and paid as interest
under Exhibit B, plus the amount of any past due interest on the Certificates, shall be
deposited in the Interest Account of the Certificate Fund.
Second, the remaining portion of such payment of Base Rentals shall be deposited
in the Principal Account of the Certificate Fund.
ARTICLE VII
AGREEMENT TO LEASE SITE
The City agrees to lease the Site to the Lessor pursuant to the Ground Lease which shall
be executed contemporaneously with or prior to the issuance of the Certificates. The City shall

insurance policies upon the Site issued by a title insurance company approved by the Trustee and
issued to (a) the Trustee, insuring the assignment of the Lessor's leasehold interest in the Site,
and (b) the Lessor, insuring the Lessor's leasehold interest in the Site. Said title insurance

this Lease.
Section 8.02. No Encumbrance, Mortgage or Pledge of Project. The City shall not
permit any mechanic's or other lien to be perfected or remain against the Project; provided that,
if the City shall first notify the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer of the intention of the City
so to do, the City may in good faith contest any mechanic's or other lien filed or perfected
against the Project, and in such event may permit the items so contested to remain undischarged
and unsatisfied during the period of such contest and any appeal therefrom; provided, however,
that during the prosecution of such contest and appeal and until final discharge of such
mechanic's or other lien, the City shall (a) provide a surety bond in the amount of such
mechanic's or other lien in accordance with the laws of the State, or (b) provide affirmative title
insurance coverage over such mechanic's or other lien, or (c) provide such other collateral or
surety of payment as the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer may deem acceptable in their sole
discretion. The Lessor and the Trustee will cooperate fully with the City in any such contest,
upon the request and at the expense of the City. Neither the Lessor nor, except as provided
above, the City, shall directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any mortgage,

not excepted above which it shall have created, incurred or suffered to exist. The Lessor shall
promptly, at its own expense, take such action as may be necessary to duly discharge any such

provided that the Project, as remodeled, improved or altered, upon completion of such
remodeling, substitutions, additions, modifications and improvements, shall be of a value not

Trustee.
The City may also, from time to time in its sole discretion and at its own expense, install
machinery, equipment and other tangible property in or on the Project. All such machinery,

the City may remove such Equipment from the Project and (on behalf of the Lessor) sell,
trade -in, exchange or otherwise dispose of it (as a whole or in part) without any responsibility
or accountability to the Lessor or the Trustee therefor, provided that the City shall either:

or in the case of any other disposition thereof, the City shall pay to the Trustee for
deposit into the Extraordinary Redemption Fund an amount equal to the original cost

The City will promptly report in writing to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer each
removal, substitution, sale or other disposition under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section and

may be lawfully paid in installments over a period of years, the City shall be obligated to
provide for Additional Rentals only for such installments as are required to be paid during the
Original or any Renewal Term. The City shall not allow any liens for taxes, assessments or
governmental charges to exist with respect to the Project or any portion thereof (including,
without limitation, any taxes levied upon the Site, the Project or any portion thereof which, if
not paid, will become a charge on the rentals and receipts from the Project or any portion
thereof, or any interest therein, including the interest of the Lessor, the Trustee or the Registered
Owners), or the rentals and revenues derived therefrom or hereunder. The City shall also pay

the taxes, assessments, utility or other charges so contested to remain unpaid during the period
of such contest and any appeal therefrom unless the Trustee shall notify the City and the
Certificate Insurer that, in the opinion of Independent Counsel, by nonpayment of any such items
the security afforded pursuant to the Indenture will be materially endangered or the Project or
any portion thereof will be subject to loss or forfeiture, or the Lessor or the Trustee will be
subject to liability, in which event such taxes, assessments, utility or other charges shall be paid
forthwith as Additional Rentals (provided, however, that such payment shall not constitute a
waiver of the right to continue to contest such taxes, assessments, utility or other charges).
Section 9.05. Provisions Regarding Casualty, Public Liability and Property Damage
Insurance. The City shall cause casualty and property damage insurance to be carried and
maintained with respect to the Project in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of
the Certificates then Outstanding or the replacement cost of the Project, whichever is greater,
after taking into account the amount of any deductible clause concerning such insurance. In the
event that the City shall so fail to insure the Project, the Trustee shall, using the moneys
available in the Insurance Account of the Expenses Fund, pay premiums for such casualty and
property damage insurance. The Trustee shall, during the Lease Term, comply with the
reasonable direction of the City as to the terms of such casualty and property damage insurance,
consistent with the requirements of this Section, and as to the selection of a responsible insurer
to provide such casualty and property damage insurance. The insurance policy may have a
deductible clause in an amount not to exceed $150,000. The Project may be insured under a
blanket insurance policy which insures other buildings as well, as long as such blanket insurance
02182116.4 22
policy complies with the requirements of this Lease. If the City shall insure against similar risks
by self - insurance, the City, at its election, may provide for property and casualty insurance with
respect to the Project, partially or wholly by means of an adequate self - insurance fund.
Upon the execution and delivery of this Lease, the City shall, at its own expense, cause
public liability insurance to be carried and maintained with respect to the activities to be
undertaken by and on behalf of the City in connection with the use of the Project. Such public
liability insurance in connection with the Project shall be in an amount not less than the amounts
provided in the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act, article 10 of title 24, Colorado Revised
Statutes, as the same may be hereafter amended. The public liability insurance required by this
Section may be by blanket insurance policy or policies. If the City shall insure against similar
risks by self- insurance, the City, at its election, may provide for public liability insurance with
respect to the Project, partially or wholly by means of an adequate self - insurance fund, subject
to the provisions of the following paragraph.
Any self- insurance maintained by the City shall comply with the following terms:
(a) the self - insurance program shall be acceptable to the Certificate Insurer;
(b) the self - insurance program shall be approved by an Independent Insurance
Consultant;
(c) the self- insurance program shall include an actuarially sound claims reserve
fund out of which each self - insured claim shall be paid; the adequacy of each such fund
shall be evaluated on an annual basis by the Independent Insurance Consultant; and any
deficiencies in any self - insurance claims shall be remedied in accordance with the
recommendation of the Independent Insurance Consultant;
(d) the self - insurance claims fund shall be held in a separate trust fund by an
independent trustee who may be the Trustee; and
(e) in the event the self - insurance program shall be discontinued, the actuarial
soundness of its claims reserve fund, as determined by the Independent Insurance
Consultant, shall be maintained.
For purposes of this Section, "Independent Insurance Consultant" shall mean a nationally
recognized, independent actuary, insurance company or broker acceptable to the Certificate
Insurer that has actuarial personnel experience in the area of insurance for which the City is to
be self - insured.
Any casualty and property damage insurance policy required by this Section shall be so
written or endorsed as to make losses of $2,500 or less, if any, payable to the City, and losses
over $2,500, if any, payable to the Trustee, who, along with the City and the Lessor, shall be
a co- insured. Each insurance policy provided for in this Section shall contain a provision to the
021%2116.4 23
effect that the insurance company shall not cancel the policy or modify it materially and
adversely to the interest of the Trustee or the Registered Owners, without first giving written
notice thereof to the City, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee at least 30 days in advance of
such cancellation or modification. All insurance policies issued pursuant to this Section, or
certificates with respect thereto, shall be deposited with the Trustee. No agent or employee of
the City shall have the power to adjust or settle any loss with respect to the Project, whether or
not covered by insurance, without the prior written consent of the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer. The consent of the Lessor shall not be required for any such adjustment or settlement.
All insurance policies required by this Section must be provided by a commercial insurer
rated "A +" by A.M. Best & Company or in the two highest rating categories of Standard &
Poor's Ratings Group and Moody's Investors Service. All such policies shall name the City,
the Lessor and the Trustee as insureds. Original copies of all insurance policies required by this
Section shall be delivered annually to the Certificate Insurer. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the City's participation in the Colorado Intergovernmental Risk Sharing Agency shall be deemed
to meet the requirements of this Section.
Section 9.06. Advances. In the event that the City shall fail to pay any Additional
Rentals during the Lease Term, and if there are not sufficient moneys available therefor in the
Reserve Fund, the Trustee may, with the consent of the Certificate Insurer, pay such Additional
Rentals, which Additional Rentals, together with interest thereon at the rate of 18% per annum,
the City agrees to reimburse to the Trustee.

(ii) title to, or the temporary or permanent use of, the Project or any portion thereof or the estate

the exercise of the power of eminent domain by any governmental authority; or (iii) a material

firm or corporation to whom payment is due; (iii) the amount to be paid; and (iv) that each
obligation mentioned therein has been properly incurred, is a proper charge against the separate
trust fund, and has not been the basis of any previous withdrawal and specifying in reasonable
detail the nature of the obligation, accompanied by a bill or a statement of account for such
obligation. The Trustee shall cooperate with the City in the administration of such fund and
shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of requisitions under this Section. The balance of
any such Net Proceeds remaining after such repair, restoration, modification, improvement or
replacement has been completed shall be deposited into the Extraordinary Redemption Fund.
Any repair, restoration, modification, improvement or replacement paid for in whole or in part
out of such Net Proceeds shall be the property of the Lessor, subject to this Lease and the
Indenture, and shall be included as part of the Project under this Lease and the Indenture.
Section 10.03. Insufficiency of Net Proceeds; Discharge of the Obligation of the City
to Repair or Replace Project. If the Net Proceeds (plus any amount withheld therefrom by
reason of any deductible clause) shall be insufficient to pay in full the cost of any repair,
restoration, modification, improvement or replacement of the Project as required under
Section 10.02 of this Lease, the City may elect to proceed under any of the following options:
(a) The City may complete the work and pay any cost in excess of the amount
of the Net Proceeds, and the City agrees that, if by reason of any such insufficiency of
the Net Proceeds, the City shall make any payments pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 10.03(a), the City shall not be entitled to any reimbursement therefor from the
Lessor, the Trustee or the Registered Owners, nor shall the City be entitled to any
diminution of the Base Rentals and Additional Rentals payable under Section 6.02 of this
Lease.
(b) The obligation of the City to repair or replace the Project under
Section 10.02 of this Lease may, at the option of the City, be discharged by depositing
the Net Proceeds of insurance policies, performance bonds or condemnation awards,
made available by reason of such occurrence, into the Extraordinary Redemption Fund,
to be used to redeem Certificates as provided in Section 4.01(c) of the Indenture. Upon
such deposit: (i) this Lease shall terminate and all obligations of the City hereunder shall
terminate (except the obligation to pay Base Rentals and Additional Rentals which would
otherwise have been payable by the City hereunder during the Original or Renewal Term
in which such deposit of Net Proceeds occurs); and (ii) the Trustee shall notify the City
to vacate the Project (leaving the Equipment) within 30 days of such deposit; the Project
shall thereafter be foreclosed on and subleased as provided in Sections 7.02 and 7.05 of
the Indenture; and the Net Proceeds of such foreclosure and subleasing shall also be
deposited into the Extraordinary Redemption Fund for the purpose of redeeming
Certificates as provided in Section 4.01(d) of the Indenture.

02182116.4 25
Net Proceeds of such insurance policies, performance bonds or condemnation awards to
the payment of the Purchase Option Price, in accordance with Article XII of this Lease.
In the event of an insufficiency of the Net Proceeds for such purpose, the City shall pay
such amounts as may be necessary to equal the Purchase Option Price; and in the event
the Net Proceeds shall exceed the Purchase Option Price, such excess shall be paid to or
retained by the City.
Within 90 days of the occurrence of an event specified in Section 10.01 of this Lease, the City
shall commence the repair, restoration, modification, improvement or replacement of the Project,
or shall elect, by written notice to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer, to proceed under the
provisions of subsection (b) or subsection (c) of this Section. In the event that the City shall,
after commencing the repair, restoration, modification, improvement or replacement of the
Project, determine that the Net Proceeds (plus any amount withheld therefrom by reason of any
deductible clause) shall be insufficient for the accomplishment thereof, the City may elect to
proceed under subsection (b) or subsection (c) of this Section.
Section 10.04. Cooperation of Lessor. The Lessor shall cooperate fully with the City
and the Trustee in filing any proof of loss with respect to any insurance policy or performance
bond covering the events described in Section 10.01 of this Lease, in the prosecution or defense
of any prospective or pending condemnation proceeding with respect to the Project or any
portion thereof, or in any action relating to any Construction Contract, and hereby assigns to the
Trustee any interest it may have in such policies or rights of action for such purposes. In no
event shall the Lessor voluntarily settle, or consent to the settlement of, any proceeding arising
out of any insurance claim, performance or payment bond claim, prospective or pending
condemnation proceeding, with respect to the Project or any portion thereof, without the written
consent of the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the City.

restrictions of the Code applicable to the Certificates and necessary to preserve the exclusion
from gross income and from alternative minimum taxable income, for purposes of federal
income taxation, of interest paid in connection with the Certificates, unless the City obtains an
opinion of nationally recognized municipal bond counsel to the effect that compliance with such
restrictions is not necessary to preserve such exclusion. In particular, but without limitation,
the City further represents, warrants and covenants to comply with the following restrictions of
the Code, unless it receives an opinion of nationally recognized municipal bond counsel stating
that such compliance is not necessary.
(a) Gross proceeds of the Certificates will not be used in a manner which will
cause the Certificates to be considered "private activity bonds" within the meaning of the
Code. The Certificates will be classified as private activity bonds if greater than 10%
of the net proceeds of the Certificates are used for any private business use and greater
than 10% of the net proceeds of the Certificates are directly or indirectly (i) secured by
any interest in (A) property used or to be used for a private business use or (B) payments
in respect of such property or (ii) to be secured by payments derived from payments in
respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used for a private business use.
The Certificates will also be deemed private activity bonds if greater than 5 % of the
proceeds of the Certificates are (i) used for a private use which is unrelated or
disproportionate to the City's use of the proceeds of the Certificates and greater than 5 %
of the debt service on the Certificates is secured by payments made directly or indirectly
by such private user or (ii) an amount exceeding the lesser of 5 % or $5 million of the
proceeds of the Certificates is used to make a private loan to a person or entity other than
a governmental unit.
(b) The Certificates are not and shall not become directly or indirectly
"federally guaranteed. " Under the Code, the Certificates will be considered to be
"federally guaranteed" if the payment of principal or interest with respect to the
Certificates is directly or indirectly guaranteed (in whole or in part) by the United States
of America (or any agency or instrumentality thereof) or 5 % or more of the proceeds of
the Certificates are used in making loans the payment of principal or interest with respect
to which are guaranteed or invested (directly or indirectly) in federally insured deposits
or accounts. The Certificates shall not be treated as federally guaranteed due to (i) the
proceeds of the issue being invested for an initial temporary period until such proceeds
are needed for the purpose for which such Certificates were issued; (ii) investments of
a bona fide debt service fund; (iii) investments of a reserve fund which meet the
limitations placed on reserve funds by the Code; (iv) investments in obligations issued
by the United States Treasury; or (v) other investments permitted by the regulations
under the Code.
02182116.4 28
(c) The City shall timely file Internal Revenue Form 8038 -G which shall
contain the information required to be filed pursuant to Section 149(e) of the Code.
(d) The City shall comply with the Investment Instructions delivered to it on
the date of issuance of the Certificates with respect to the application and investment of
the proceeds of the Certificates.

Certificates, and annually, in the case of the issuance of indebtedness, it will file or cause

the City in connection with the issuance by the City of Additional Certificates or the
incurrence by the City of any such indebtedness.
(b) The City agrees promptly to provide or cause to be provided to the
Certificate Insurer such financial, statistical and other factual information as the
Certificate Insurer shall from time to time reasonably request regarding the City.
(c) The City agrees, so long as the Policy of Insurance is in effect, to provide
not more than 90 days after the end of each Fiscal Year, a certificate of its Finance
Director (or any other officer at any time charged with the responsibility of formulating
budget proposals) to the effect that the City is in compliance with the terms and
conditions of the Lease, or specifying the nature of any noncompliance and the remedial
action taken or proposed to be taken to cure such noncompliance.
(d) The City agrees, so long as the Policy of Insurance is in effect, promptly
to provide to the Certificate Insurer: (i) audited (or if not audited then unaudited)
financial statements and quarterly financial statements of the City, (ii) the City's annual
report and (iii) all budgets, budget amendments, reports, certificates and financial
information required to be filed with the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture and this
Lease. Any other information available to the Registered Owners on request shall also
be available to the Certificate Insurer on request.

the SID, if any, such Annual Financial Information within two days of the day it receives
it (the "Report Date ") while any Series 1995 Certificates are Outstanding. It shall be
sufficient if the City provides to the Trustee and the Lessor and the Trustee provides to
each then existing NRMSIR and the SID, if any, the Annual Financial Information by
specific reference to documents previously provided to each NRMSIR and the SID, if
any, or filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and, if such a document is
a final official statement within the meaning of the Rule, available from the MSRB.
(d) If a Material Event occurs while any Series 1995 Certificates are
outstanding, the City shall provide a Material Event Notice to the Trustee in a timely
manner and the Trustee shall promptly provide to the MSRB and the SID, if any, such
Material Event Notice. Each Material Event Notice shall be so captioned and shall
prominently state the date, title, and CUSIP numbers of the Series 1995 Certificates.
(e) The Trustee shall promptly advise the City whenever, in the course of
performing its duties as Trustee under the Indenture, the Trustee identifies an occurrence
which, if material, would require the City to provide a Material Event Notice pursuant
to clause (d) above; provided that the failure of the Trustee so to advise the City of such
occurrence shall not constitute a breach by the Trustee of any of its duties and
responsibilities hereunder or under the Indenture.
(f) The Trustee shall, without further direction or instruction from the City,
provide in a timely manner to each then existing NRMSIR (or the MSRB) and to the
SID, if any, notice of any failure while any Series 1995 Certificates are Outstanding by
the Trustee to provide to each then existing NRMSIR and the SID, if any, Annual
Financial Information on or before the Report Date (whether caused by failure of the
City to provide such information to the Trustee by the Submission Date or for any other
reason).
02192116.4 30
(g) If the City provides to the Trustee information relating to the City or the
Series 1995 Certificates, which information is not designated as a Material Event Notice,
and directs the Trustee to provide such information to information repositories, the
Trustee shall provide such information in a timely manner to each then existing NRMSIR
(or the MSRB) and the SID, if any.
(h) Unless otherwise required by law and subject to technical and economic
feasibility, the City and the Trustee shall employ such methods of information
transmission as shall be reasonably requested or recommended by the designated
recipients of the City's information.
(i) The undertaking in this Section will be in effect from the date of delivery
of the Series 1995 Certificates until the earliest of (i) the date all principal and interest
on the Series 1995 Certificates has been legally defeased pursuant to the terms of the
Indenture; (ii) the date that the City shall no longer constitute an "obligated person"
within the meaning of the Rule; or (iii) the date on which those portions of the Rule
which required this written undertaking are held to be invalid by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a non - appealable action, have been repealed retroactively or otherwise do
not apply to the Series 1995 Certificates.
0) This Section may be amended without the consent of the owners of the
Series 1995 Certificates, in compliance with the Rule and any interpretive guidance
related to the Rule. The Trustee shall provide notice of such amendment to each
NRMSIR.
(k) Any failure by the City to perform in accordance with this Section shall
not constitute an "Event of Default" under this Lease, and the rights and remedies
provided by the Lease upon the occurrence of an "Event of Default" shall not apply to
any such failure. Either the Certificate owners, or the Trustee, on behalf of the
Certificate owners, may enforce specific performance of the undertakings herein by any
available judicial proceeding. Unless otherwise required by law, no owner of a Series
1995 Certificate shall be entitled to damages for the City's non - compliance with its
obligations under this Section.

(d) No sublease by the City shall cause the Project to be used for any purpose
which would cause the City to violate its covenants in Section 11.07 hereof, or which
would violate the Constitution, statutes or laws of the State or the Charter.
Section 13.03. Release and Indemnification Covenants. To the extent permitted by
law, the City shall and hereby agrees to indemnify and save the Lessor, the Certificate Insurer
02182116.4 33
and the Trustee harmless against and from all claims, by or on behalf of any person, firm,
corporation or other legal entity arising from the conduct, management or ownership of, or
from any work or thing done on, the Project during the Lease Term, from: (i) any condition of
the Project; and (ii) any act of negligence of the City or of any of its agents, contractors or
employees or any violation of law by the City or breach of any covenant or warranty by the City

Certificate Insurer and the Trustee harmless from any such claim arising as aforesaid from (i)
or (ii) above, or in connection with any action or proceeding brought thereon and, upon notice

or proceeding.
All indemnification provisions contained in this Section shall be subject to the restrictions,
provisions and damage limitations contained in the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act,
Article 10 of Title 24, C.R.S., now existing or as subsequently amended or any statute
superseding such Act. Further, nothing in this Lease shall be construed or interpreted to require

person or any property damage whatsoever which is caused by the negligence or other
misconduct of such Lessor or Trustee or their agents or employees.

ARTICLE XIV
EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
Section 14.01. Events of Default Defined. Any one of the following shall be "Events
of Default" under this Lease:
(a) Failure by the City to pay any Base Rentals or Additional Rentals when
due during the Lease Term; or
02/82116.4 34
(b) Failure by the City to vacate the Project (leaving the Equipment) by the
expiration of the Original or Renewal Term during which an Event of Nonappropriation
occurs; or
(c) Failure by the City to observe and perform any covenant, condition or
agreement on its part to be observed or performed, other than as referred to in (a) or (b),
for a period of 30 days after written notice, specifying such failure and requesting that
it be remedied shall be given to the City by the Trustee or the Certificate Insurer, unless
the Trustee or the Certificate Insurer shall agree in writing to an extension of such time
prior to its expiration; provided, however, that if the failure stated in the notice cannot
be corrected within the applicable period, the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer shall not
unreasonably withhold their consent to an extension of such time if corrective action shall
be instituted by the City within the applicable period and diligently pursued until the
default is corrected; or
(d) failure by the City to comply with the terms of Article VI of the Ground
Lease for a period of five Business Days after written notice specifying such failure and
requesting that it be remedied is given to the City by the Trustee; or
(e) Failure by the City to budget for and seek an appropriation to reimburse
the provider of a Qualified Surety Bond for any drawing upon such Qualified Surety
Bond.
The foregoing provisions of this Section are subject to the following limitations: (i) the City shall
be obligated to pay the Base Rentals and Additional Rentals only during the Lease Term, except
as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease; and (ii) if, by reason of Force Majeure, the City
shall be unable in whole or in part to carry out any agreement on its part herein contained, other
than the obligations on the part of the City contained in Article VI of this Lease, the City shall
not be deemed in default during the continuance of such inability. The City agrees, however,
to remedy, as promptly as legally and reasonably possible, the cause or causes preventing the
City from carrying out its agreement; provided that the settlement of strikes, lockouts and other
industrial disturbances shall be entirely within the discretion of the City.
Section 14.02. Remedies on Default. Whenever any Event of Default referred to in
Section 14.01 of this Lease shall have happened and be continuing, the Trustee may terminate
the Lease Term and may give notice to the City to vacate the Project (leaving the Equipment)
within 15 days from the date of such notice. After the occurrence of an Event of Default the
Trustee may, with the consent of the Certificate Insurer, and shall, at the direction of the
Certificate Insurer, without any further demand or notice, foreclose through the courts on the
Project, and exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Colorado Uniform
Commercial Code with respect to the Equipment, and take one or any combination of the
following additional remedial steps:
02182116.4 35
( a) The Trustee may sublease the Site and lease the Project or any portion
thereof for the benefit of the Registered Owners, or sell an assignment of its interest in
the Ground Lease; provided that, notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the
Ground Lease or in the Indenture to the contrary, the University of Southern Colorado
shall have the exclusive right, for two weeks from the day notice of the Event of Default
is given, to enter into an agreement to lease the Project and sublease the Site from the
Trustee, so long as the University of Southern Colorado agrees to make such payments
of Base Rentals and Additional Rentals as are set forth herein. In the event that the
University of Southern Colorado fails to exercise its right to lease the Project and
sublease the Site from the Trustee within such two week period, the Trustee may lease
and sublease to the highest responsible bidder. Any such lease and sublease or
assignment shall be conditioned, however, on an agreement by the lessee /sublessee or
assignee to use the Site in a manner compatible with other uses in the area immediately
surrounding the Site. Prior to the execution of any such lease and sublease or
assignment, the Trustee shall give written notice by mail, return receipt requested, of the
proposed use or uses to the University of Southern Colorado, which shall have 30 days
from the date of receipt of the notice within which to acquiesce or object to each of the
proposed uses on the basis of the standard set forth in the preceding sentence. If the
University of Southern Colorado fails to respond within the allotted time, it will be
conclusively presumed to have acquiesced to all of the uses proposed. If the University
of Southern Colorado objects to one or more of the proposed uses, the Trustee may
either (i) execute a lease and sublease or assignment which limits the use or uses of the
Site to those to which the University of Southern Colorado has acquiesced, or (ii) take
the issue of whether a particular use or uses meet the standard of compatibility set forth
above to binding arbitration, which arbitration shall be concluded within 180 days from
the date of the objection from the University of Southern Colorado, such arbitration to
be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
(b) The Trustee may recover from the City:
(i) the portion of Base Rentals and Additional Rentals which would
otherwise have been payable hereunder, allocable to any period in which the City
continues to occupy the Project; and
(ii) Base Rentals and Additional Rentals which would otherwise have
been payable by the City hereunder during the remainder, after the City vacates
the Project, of the Original or Renewal Term in which such Event of Default
occurs; provided, however, that if the Trustee does not proceed to foreclose and
sell the Project and assign its interest in the Ground Lease reasonably promptly
after such Event of Default, the Trustee shall be obligated to the City to use its
best efforts to lease and sublease the Project and the Site for the remainder of
such Original or Renewal Term, as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section, and
the Net Proceeds of such leasing shall be offset against the amount recoverable
from the City under this paragraph (ii).
02/82116.4 36
(c) The Trustee may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear
necessary or desirable to enforce its right in and to the Project under this Lease, the
Ground Lease and the Indenture.
The exercise of any remedies under this Lease shall be subject to the limitations and
requirements of the Indenture, including without limitation, the right of the Certificate Insurer
to direct, or consent to the exercise of, such remedies as provided in the Indenture.
Section 14.03. Limitations on Remedies. A judgment requiring a payment of money
may be entered against the City by reason of an Event of Default only as to the City's liabilities
described in paragraph (b) of Section 14.02 of this Lease. A judgment requiring a payment of
money may be entered against the City by reason of an Event of Nonappropriation only to the
extent that the City fails to vacate the Project as required by Section 6.06 of this Lease, and only
as to the liabilities described in paragraph (b)(i) of Section 14.02 of this Lease. Notwithstanding
paragraph (b)(ii) of Section 14.02 of this Lease, any Event of Default consisting of failure by
the City to vacate the Project by the expiration of the Original or Renewal Term during which
an Event of Nonappropriation occurs shall not result in any liability for Base Rentals or
Additional Rentals allocable to any period other than the period in which the City continues to
occupy the Project.
Section 14.04. No Remedy Exclusive. Subject to Section 14.03 hereof, no remedy
herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee is intended to be exclusive, and every such
remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or
power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power, and the same may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the
Trustee to exercise any remedy reserved in this Article, it shall not be necessary to give any
notice, other than such notice as may be required in this Article.
Section 14.05. Waivers. The Trustee may waive any Event of Default under this Lease
and its consequences, as the Trustee deems to be in the best interests of the Registered Owners;
provided, however, that the consent of the Certificate Insurer shall be required for any such
waiver, and the consent of the University of Southern Colorado shall be required for any waiver
of the Event of Default described under Section 14.01(c). In the event that any agreement
contained herein should be breached by either party and thereafter waived by the other party,
such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive
any other breach hereunder.
In view of the assignment of the rights of the Lessor under this Lease and the Ground
Lease to the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, the Lessor shall have no right to waive any Event
of Default hereunder or under the Ground Lease without the consent of the Trustee and the
Certificate Insurer; and the waiver of any Event of Default hereunder by the Trustee, with the
consent of the Certificate Insurer, shall constitute a waiver of such Event of Default by the
Lessor, without the necessity of any action of or consent by the Lessor. A waiver of an Event
02 /92116.4 37
of Default under the Indenture shall constitute a waiver of the corresponding Event of Default
or Event of Nonappropriation under this Lease and the Ground Lease; provided that no such
waiver shall extend to or affect any subsequent or other Event of Default or Event of
Nonappropriation under this Lease or the Ground Lease or impair any right consequent thereon.
Section 14.06. Agreement to Pay Attorneys' Fees and Expenses. In the event that either
party hereto shall default under any of the provisions hereof and the nondefaulting party or the
Certificate Insurer shall employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of Base
Rentals and Additional Rentals, or the enforcement of performance or observance of any
obligation or agreement on the part of the defaulting party herein contained, the defaulting party
agrees that it shall pay on demand therefor to the nondefaulting party or the Certificate Insurer
the fees of such attorneys and such other expenses so incurred by the nondefaulting party or the
Certificate Insurer, to the extent that such attorneys' fees and expenses may be determined to
be reasonable by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 14.07. Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay and Extension. The Lessor
and the City agree, to the extent permitted by law, that in the case of a termination of the Lease
Term by reason of an Event of Nonappropriation or an Event of Default, neither the Lessor nor
the City nor any one claiming through or under either of them shall or will set up claim or seek
to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay or extension laws now or hereafter in
force in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement of the Indenture, this Lease or the Ground
Lease; and the Lessor and the City, for themselves and all who may at any time claim through
or under either of them, each hereby waives, to the full extent that it may lawfully do so, the
benefit of all such laws; provided, however, that Lessor, for itself and all who may at any time
claim through or under the Lessor, shall retain all rights of redemption.

in this Lease).

last day for performance of any act or the exercising of any right, as provided in this Lease,

corporate trust office of the Trustee is located are authorized by law to remain closed, such
payment may be made or act performed or right exercised on the next succeeding day that is not
a legal holiday or a day on which such banking institutions are not authorized by law to remain
closed with the same force and effect as if done on the nominal date provided in this Lease.

Article XII of this Lease, shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent
jurisdiction, such holding shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision hereof.

federal income taxation, of the interest on the Certificates and Additional Certificates
theretofore issued will not be adversely affected by the issuance of the Additional
Certificates being issued, and that the issuance, sale and delivery of the Additional
Certificates will not constitute a default under the Ground Lease, the Lease or this
OV82115 A 15
Indenture nor cause any violation of the covenants, agreements or representations in the
Lease or this Indenture.
(c) Evidence that the amount of the title insurance policy or policies required

other way impose upon the Lessor or the City any obligation whatsoever with respect to
persons having interests in the Series 1995 Certificates other than the Registered Owners,

to the Series 1995 Certificates, or
(B) a continuation of the requirement that all of the Outstanding
Series 1995 Certificates be registered in the registration records kept by

Series 1995 Certificates pursuant to subsection 2.12(d)(ii)(B) hereof, or upon the

expense of the beneficial owners of the Series 1995 Certificates, as described in
this Indenture, and the Series 1995 Certificates shall no longer be restricted to
being registered in the registration records kept by the Trustee in the name of

Registered Owners transferring or exchanging Series 1995 Certificates shall
designate, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so
long as any Series 1995 Certificate is registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of

described in the Investment Instructions as directed by the City. The City shall attach the report
of the firm of certified public accountants required by Section 3.15 above to any such directions.

ARTICLE IV
REDEMPTION OF CERTIFICATES
Section 4.01. Redemption Dates and Prices. The Certificates are subject to redemption
as set forth below:
(a) The Series 1995 Certificates shall be called for redemption on any date in
the event of, and to the extent that moneys are actually received by the Trustee from, the
exercise by the City of its option to purchase the Project, as provided in the Lease, upon
payment of the then applicable Purchase Option Price; provided, however, that paragraph
(b) below, and not this paragraph (a), shall apply in the event that the Purchase Option
Price is paid from moneys borrowed by the City or derived from any installment
purchase or lease purchase financing by the City.
(b) The Series 1995 Certificates maturing on or after December 1, 2006, shall
be callable for redemption prior to maturity, at the option of the City, on December 1,
2005 and on any date thereafter at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of
principal amount) of 100 %, plus accrued interest to the redemption date.
(c) The Certificates shall be called for redemption in the event and only to the
extent that Extraordinary Revenues are deposited into the Extraordinary Redemption
Fund, other than as provided in paragraph (a), (b) or (d) of this Section.
(d) The Certificates may also be called for redemption as set forth in
Section 4.02 of this Indenture.
In the event the Series 1995 Certificates are redeemed pursuant to (a) above, the Series
1995 Certificates shall be redeemed in whole, at a redemption price equal to the par amount of
the Series 1995 Certificates being redeemed, plus accrued interest to the redemption date.
In the event the Series 1995 Certificates are redeemed pursuant to (b) above, the Series
1995 Certificates shall be redeemed in whole; provided, however, that if Additional Certificates
02182115.4 27
are issue to provide the funds for such redemption, the Series 1995 Certificates may be
redeemed in part.
In the event that the Certificates are redeemed pursuant to (c) above, the Certificates shall
be redeemed in whole, or in part in inverse order of maturity and by lot within any maturity,
at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 100% plus accrued
interest to the redemption date, on the first Business Day for which notice of redemption may
be given. When Certificates are to be redeemed in part, the schedule of Base Rentals set forth
in Exhibit B to the Lease shall be recalculated by the Trustee.
No Certificate shall be redeemed pursuant to (a) or (b) above unless and until all amounts
owing to the Certificate Insurer have been paid by the City.
Section 4.02. Redemption Upon Termination of the Lease Term by Reason of Certain
Events. The Certificates are callable for redemption upon the occurrence of a Termination
Event; provided, however, that so long as the Certificate Insurer is not in default under the
Policy of Insurance, no such redemption shall be called without the prior written consent of the
Certificate Insurer. If the Certificates are to be redeemed subsequent to a Termination Event
as described in the preceding sentence, the Registered Owners shall have no right to payment
from the City, the Lessor or the Trustee, in redemption of their Certificates or otherwise, except
as expressly set forth in this Section.
Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event the Certificates shall be payable from such
moneys as may be obtained by the Trustee through the exercise of its rights under this Indenture.
Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Trustee may, with the consent of the
Certificate Insurer, and, upon direction of the Certificate Insurer, shall commence proceedings
for subleasing the Site and leasing the Project, or the sale or assignment of the Trustee's interest
in the Project and its leasehold interest in the Site as provided in Sections 7.02 and 7.05 of this
Indenture, and may, with the consent of the Certificate Insurer, and, upon direction of the
Certificate Insurer, shall, call the Certificates for redemption from and only to the extent of the
Net Proceeds of such subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or assignment of the Project and
all other moneys, if any, then on hand and being held by the Trustee for the Registered Owners
at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the redemption date.
In the event that such Net Proceeds of foreclosure and sale and other moneys shall be
insufficient to redeem the Certificates at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued
interest to the redemption date, then such Net Proceeds of such subleasing of the Site and
leasing, sale or assignment of the Project and other moneys shall be allocated proportionately
among the Certificates, according to the principal amount thereof Outstanding. In the event that
such Net Proceeds of such subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or assignment of the Project
and other moneys are in excess of the amount required to redeem the Certificates then
Outstanding at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the redemption
date, after the Certificates have been redeemed, such excess moneys shall be applied to
reimburse the Certificate Insurer for its expenses and any payments made under the Policy of
02/92115.4 28
Insurance and the balance shall be paid to the City. Prior to any distribution of the Net Proceeds
of such subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or assignment of the Project in redemption of the
Certificates pursuant to this Section, the Trustee shall be entitled to payment of its customary
fees for all services rendered in connection with such subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or
assignment of the Project, as well as reimbursement for all costs and expenses incurred thereby,
from proceeds of such subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or assignment of the Project. If
the Certificates are to be redeemed subsequent to a Termination Event from such Net Proceeds
of such subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or assignment of the Project for an amount less
than the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the redemption date, no
Registered Owner of any Certificate shall have any further claim for payment against the City,
the Lessor or the Trustee. In such an event, the Registered Owners of the Certificates shall be
entitled to payments solely from the Policy of Insurance in accordance with its terms.
In the event that the Certificates are called for redemption pursuant to this Section, the
Certificate Insurer may, at any time and at its sole option, pay to the Registered Owners all or
any portion of amounts due on the Certificates prior to the stated maturity dates thereof.
Subsequent to the occurrence of a Termination Event and in the event that the Certificates
have been paid by the Certificate Insurer, the Trustee shall at the direction of the Certificate
Insurer, subject to the provisions of Article VIII of this Indenture, commence subleasing of the
Site and leasing, sale or assignment of the Project in the manner set forth in the preceding
paragraph, if such subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or assignment of the Project shall not
have previously occurred. All amounts derived from such subleasing of the Site and leasing,
sale or assignment of the Project, after payment to the Trustee of its customary fees for all
services rendered and reimbursement for all expenses incurred in connection with such
subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or assignment of the Project shall be applied to reimburse
the Certificate Insurer for all payments made under the Policy of Insurance and the balance shall
be paid to the City.
Section 4.03. Notice of Redemption. Notice of the call for any redemption, identifying
the Certificates or portions thereof to be redeemed and specifying the terms of such redemption,
shall be given by the Trustee, upon being satisfactorily indemnified as to expenses, by mailing
a copy of the redemption notice by registered or certified mail at least 30 days and not more
than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the Certificate Insurer and to the
Registered Owner of each Certificate to be redeemed at the address shown on the registration
books; provided, however, that failure to give such notice by mailing, or any defect therein,
shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the redemption of Certificates as to which no
such failure has occurred.
Any notice mailed as provided in this Section shall be conclusively presumed to have
been duly given, whether or not the Registered Owner receives the notice.
If at the time of mailing of notice of redemption there shall not have been deposited with
the Trustee moneys sufficient to redeem all the Certificates called for redemption, which moneys
02/82115.4 29
are or will be available for redemption of Certificates, such notice will state that it is conditional
upon the deposit of the redemption moneys with the Trustee not later than the opening of
business on the redemption date, and such notice shall be of no effect unless such moneys are
so deposited.
Section 4.04. Redemption Payments. Prior to the date fixed for redemption, funds shall
be deposited with the Trustee to pay, and the Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to apply
such funds to the payment of, the Certificates called, together with accrued interest thereon to
the redemption date, and any required premium. Upon the giving of notice and the deposit of
such funds as may be available for redemption pursuant to this Indenture (which, in the case of
redemption pursuant to Section 4.02 above, may be less than the full principal amount of the
Outstanding Certificates and accrued interest thereon to the redemption date), interest on the
Certificates or portions thereof thus called shall no longer accrue after the date fixed for
redemption.
The Trustee shall pay to the Registered Owners of Certificates so redeemed, the amounts
due on their respective Certificates, at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee upon
presentation and surrender of the Certificates; provided, however, that, if redeemed in part, the
Certificates may be redeemed only in multiples of $5,000. Redemption payments shall be
accompanied by a written designation prepared by the Trustee stating the portion of the payment
representing the unpaid principal amount of the Certificate immediately prior to the payment,
the portion of the payment representing interest, and the remaining portion, if any, which shall
be designated and paid as a redemption premium.
Section 4.05. Cancellation. All Certificates which have been redeemed shall not be
reissued but shall be canceled and cremated or otherwise destroyed by the Trustee in accordance
with Section 2.10 hereof.
Section 4.06. Delivery of New Cert4ficates Upon Partial Redemption of Certificates.
Upon surrender and cancellation of the Certificates for redemption in part only, a new
Certificate or Certificates of the same maturity and of authorized denomination in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof, shall be executed on behalf of and
delivered by the Trustee. The expenses of such execution, delivery and exchange shall be paid
by the City as Additional Rentals under the Lease.
ARTICLE V
INVESTMENTS
Section 5.01. Investment of Moneys. All moneys held as part of the Certificate Fund,
the Reserve Fund, the Extraordinary Redemption Fund, the Expenses Fund, the Rebate Fund
or any other fund or account created hereunder or under the Lease shall be deposited or invested
and reinvested by the Trustee, at the direction of the City, in accordance with the provisions of
the Investment Instructions and this Indenture, in Permitted Investments; provided, however, that
02192115.4 30
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture (a) the Trustee shall make
no deposits or investments of any fund or account created hereunder which shall interfere with
or prevent withdrawals for payment of the Certificates at or before maturity or interest thereon
as required hereunder, and (b) the Reserve Fund and all amounts representing accrued interest
in the Interest Account of the Certificate Fund shall be invested solely in Federal Securities with
maturities not exceeding five years. All investments and reinvestments of any amounts pursuant
to this Indenture or the Lease shall be made in compliance with the requirements of the No
Arbitrage Certificate executed by the City in connection with the issuance of the Certificates,
unless the Trustee shall receive an opinion of nationally recognized municipal bond counsel
acceptable to the City and the Trustee to the effect that an alternate investment or reinvestment
shall not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income or alternative minimum taxable
income, for purposes of federal income taxation, of interest on the Certificates, in which case
such investment or reinvestment shall be made in accordance with such opinion. Any and all
such deposits or investments shall be held by or under the control of the Trustee.
The Trustee may make any and all such deposits or investments through its own
investment department or the investment department of any bank or trust company under
common control with the Trustee. The Trustee is specifically authorized to enter into
agreements with itself or any other person, which agreements guarantee the repurchase of
specific Permitted Investments at specific prices and provided that such Permitted Investments
are held by a third party during the term thereof. Income from deposits or investments of
moneys in the Reserve Fund shall be deposited in the Expenses Fund or the Certificate Fund
under certain circumstances as provided in Section 3.08 of this Indenture; income from deposits
or investments of moneys in the Extraordinary Redemption Fund shall be deposited into the
Certificate Fund, as provided in Section 3.09 of this Indenture; and income from deposits or
investments of moneys in each account of the Expenses Fund shall be deposited into the
Certificate Fund under certain circumstances as provided in Section 3.10 of this Indenture;
otherwise, deposits or investments shall at all times be a part of the fund or account from which
the moneys used to acquire such deposits or investments shall have come, and all income and
profits on such deposits or investments shall be credited to, and losses thereon shall be charged
against, such fund or account. In computing the amount in any fund or account held under the
provisions of this Indenture, obligations purchased as a deposit or investment of moneys therein
shall be valued at the cost or market price thereof, whichever is lower, exclusive of accrued
interest. With respect to all funds and accounts, valuation shall occur annually, except in the
event of a withdrawal from the Reserve Fund, whereupon obligations therein shall be valued
immediately after such withdrawal. If amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall, at any
time, be less that the applicable Reserve Fund Requirement, the Certificate Insurer shall be
notified immediately of such deficiency, and such deficiency shall be made up from first
available moneys after required deposits to the Certificate Fund (a) over a period of not more
than four months, in four (4) substantially equal payments in the event such deficiency results
from a decrease in the market value of the Permitted Investments on deposit in the Reserve Fund
and (b) over a twelve (12) -month period, in twelve (12) substantially equal payments, in the
event such deficiency results from a withdrawal from the Reserve Fund. The Trustee shall sell
and reduce to cash a sufficient amount of such deposits or investments whenever the cash
02182115.4 31
I I A Ell II! II
balance in any fund or account created hereunder is insufficient to satisfy the purposes of such
fund or account.
Section 5.02. Arbitrage Certification. In reliance on the direction of investments by the
City as provided in Section 5.01 of this Indenture, and in reliance on the covenants of the City
in Section 11.07 of the Lease, the Trustee certifies and covenants to and for the benefit of the
Registered Owners that so long as any of the Certificates remain Outstanding, moneys in any
fund or account held by the Trustee under this Indenture, whether or not such moneys were
derived from the proceeds of the sale of the Certificates or from any other source, will not be
knowingly deposited or invested in a manner which will cause the Certificates to be classified
as "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code.
ARTICLE VI
DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE
If, when the Certificates secured hereby shall become due and payable in accordance with
their terms or otherwise as provided in this Indenture, the whole amount of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest due and payable upon all of the Certificates shall be paid (or, in
the case of redemption of the Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01(d) of this Indenture, if full
or partial payment of the Certificates and interest thereon is made as provided in Section 4.02
of this Indenture), or provision shall have been made for the payment of the same, together with
all other sums payable hereunder including all amounts due to the Certificate Insurer pursuant
to the Policy of Insurance and any Qualified Surety Bond, then the right, title and interest of the
Trustee in and to the Trust Estate and all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the
Lessor and the City to the Trustee and the Registered Owners shall thereupon cease, terminate
and become void and be discharged and satisfied. In such event, upon the request of the City,
and upon reimbursement to the Certificate Insurer of all amounts paid by the Certificate Insurer
under the Policy of Insurance, the Trustee and the Lessor shall transfer and convey to the City
all property assigned, pledged or mortgaged to the Trustee by the Lessor then held by the Lessor
or by the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, and the Lessor and the Trustee shall execute such
documents as may be reasonably required by the City and shall turn over to the City any surplus
in any fund created under this Indenture except the Rebate Fund.
All Outstanding Certificates shall, prior to the maturity or redemption date thereof, be
deemed to have been paid within the meaning and with the effect expressed in this Article if
(a) in case said Certificates are to be redeemed on any date prior to their maturity, the City shall
have given to the Trustee in form satisfactory to the Trustee irrevocable instructions to give, on
a date in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03 hereof, notice of redemption of such
Certificates on said redemption date, such notice to be given in accordance with the provisions
of Section 4.03 hereof, (b) there shall have been deposited with the Trustee either moneys in
an amount which shall be sufficient, or Federal Securities which shall not contain provisions
permitting the redemption thereof at the option of the issuer, the principal of and the interest on
which when due, and without any reinvestment thereof, will provide moneys which, together
02192115.4 32
with the moneys, if any, deposited with or held by the Trustee at the same time, shall be
sufficient to pay when due the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due and to become due
on said Certificates on and prior to the redemption date or maturity date thereof, as the case may
be, and (c) in the event said Certificates are not by their terms subject to redemption within the
next 60 days, the City shall have given the Trustee in form satisfactory to it irrevocable
instructions to give, as soon as practicable in the same manner as the notice of redemption is
given pursuant to Section 4.03 hereof, a notice to the Registered Owners of such Certificates that
the deposit required by (b) above has been made with the Trustee and that said Certificates are
deemed to have been paid in accordance with this Article and stating such maturity or
redemption date upon which moneys are to be available for the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on said Certificates. Neither the Federal Securities nor moneys
deposited with the Trustee pursuant to this Article or principal or interest payments on any such
Federal Securities shall be withdrawn or used for any purpose other than, and shall be held in
trust for, the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on said Certificates;
provided any cash received from such principal or interest payments on such Federal Securities
deposited with the Trustee, if not then needed for such purpose, shall, to the extent practicable,
be reinvested in Federal Securities of the type described in clause (b) of this paragraph maturing
at the times and in amounts sufficient to pay when due the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest to become due on said Certificates on or prior to such redemption date or maturity date
thereof, as the case may be. At such time as any Certificates shall be deemed paid as aforesaid,
such Certificates shall no longer be secured by or entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and
the Lease, except for the purpose of exchange and transfer and any payment from such moneys
or Federal Securities deposited with the Trustee.
Prior to any discharge of this Indenture becoming effective, (i) the Certificate Insurer
shall have received an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Certificate Insurer, to the effect that
any deposit of cash or securities and any deposit of investment earnings thereon to effect a
discharge of this Indenture, which opinion may be waived by the Certificate Insurer at the time
of such discharge and defeasance, (ii) the amounts required to be deposited to discharge this
Indenture and defease the Certificates shall be invested only in Federal Securities and (iii) the
Certificate Insurer shall have received (a) the final official statement delivered in connection with
the refunding obligations, if any, (b) a copy of the accountants' verification report, (c) a copy
of the escrow deposit agreement in form and substance acceptable to the Certificate Insurer, and
(d) a copy of an opinion of bond counsel, dated the date of closing and addressed to the
Certificate Insurer, to the effect that the Certificates have been paid within the meaning and with
the effect expressed in this Indenture, and that the covenants, agreements and other obligations
of the City to the holders of the Certificates have been discharged.
In the event that the principal of and /or interest on the Certificates shall be paid by the
Certificate Insurer pursuant to the terms of the Policy of Insurance, the assignment and pledge
of the Trust Estate and all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the City to the
Certificate owners shall continue to exist, such Certificates shall be deemed to be "Outstanding"
and the Certificate Insurer shall be fully subrogated to the rights of such Registered Owners.
M/92115.4 33
The release of the obligations of the Lessor under this Section shall be without prejudice
to the rights of the Trustee to be paid reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it
hereunder and all its reasonable expenses, charges and other disbursements incurred with respect
to the administration of the trust hereby created and the performance of its powers and duties
hereunder.
Amounts paid by the Certificate Insurer under the Policy of Insurance or a Qualified
Surety Bond shall not be deemed to have been paid by the City or the Lessor, and such amounts
shall continue to be secured solely by the Trust Estate and shall be deemed to be due and owing
under this Indenture.
ARTICLE VII
DEFAULTS AND REMED
Section 7.01. Events of Default. If any of the following events occur it is hereby
defined as and shall be deemed an "Event of Default" under this Indenture:
(a) default by the City in the payment of Base Rentals or Additional Rentals;
(b) The occurrence of a Termination Event; or
(c) The occurrence of an Event of Default as provided in Section 14.01 of the
Lease.
The Trustee shall notify the Certificate Insurer and the University of Southern Colorado
within five (5) days after it has received notice or has knowledge of an Event of Default or of
any event that with notice and /or with the lapse of time could become an Event of Default.
Notwithstanding anything herein, in the Ground Lease or in the Lease to the contrary, the
University of Southern Colorado shall have the right to pay to the Trustee the amount of money
necessary, together with moneys then on deposit with the Trustee in funds established under this
Indenture, to redeem all of the Outstanding Certificates and to thereby discharge this Indenture,
but only in accordance with the conditions set forth in Article VI hereof. If the University of
Southern Colorado makes such payments, the Trustee and the Lessor shall take all necessary
actions to release the entire Site from the provisions of this Indenture, the Lease and the Ground
Lease.
Section 7.02. Remedies on Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
described in Section 7.01(b) of this Indenture, the Trustee shall, with the prior written consent
of the Certificate Insurer, terminate the Lease Term, shall become entitled to possession of the
Project, and shall give notice to the City to vacate the Project (leaving the Equipment) as
provided in Sections 6.06 and 14.02 of the Lease, as the case may be, and shall exercise the
rights and remedies of a secured party under the Colorado Uniform Commercial Code with
respect to the Equipment; and the Trustee may, or as provided in Section 7.03 of this Indenture,
02/92115.4 34
shall, without any further demand or notice, take one or any combination of the following
additional remedial steps:
(a) The Trustee may lease the Project or any portion thereof and sublease the
Site, or sell an assignment of its interest in the Ground Lease, all for the benefit of the
Registered Owners; provided that, notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the
Ground Lease or in the Lease to the contrary, the University of Southern Colorado shall
have the exclusive right, for two weeks from the day notice of the Event of Default is
given, to enter into an agreement to lease the Project and sublease the Site from the
Trustee, so long as the University of Southern Colorado agrees to make such payments
of Base Rentals and Additional Rentals as are set forth in the Lease. In the event that
the University of Southern Colorado fails to exercise its right to lease the Project and
sublease the Site from the Trustee within such two week period, the Trustee may lease
and sublease to the highest responsible bidder. Any such lease and sublease or
assignment shall be conditioned, however, on an agreement by the lessee /sublessee or
assignee to use the Site in a manner compatible with other uses in the area immediately
surrounding the Site. Prior to the execution of any such lease and sublease or
assignment, the Trustee shall give written notice by mail, return receipt requested, of the
proposed use or uses to the University of Southern Colorado, which shall have 30 days
from the date of receipt of the notice within which to acquiesce or object to each of the
proposed uses on the basis of the standard set forth in the preceding sentence. If the
University of Southern Colorado fails to respond within the allotted time, it will be
conclusively presumed to have acquiesced to all of the uses proposed. If the University
of Southern Colorado objects to one or more of the proposed uses, the Trustee may
either (i) execute a lease and sublease or assignment which limits the use or uses of the
Site to those to which the University of Southern Colorado has acquiesced, or (ii) take
the issue of whether a particular use or uses meet the standard of compatibility set forth
above to binding arbitration, which arbitration shall be concluded within 180 days from
the date of the objection from the University of Southern Colorado, such arbitration to
be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
(b) The Trustee, on behalf of the Lessor, may recover from the City:
(i) the portion of Base Rentals and Additional Rentals which would
otherwise have been payable under the Lease allocable to any period in which the
City continues to occupy the Project; and
(ii) Base Rentals and Additional Rentals which would otherwise have
been payable by the City under the Lease during the remainder, after the City
vacates the Project, of the Original or Renewal Term in which such Event of
Default occurs; provided, however, that if the Trustee does not proceed to
foreclose and sell the Project and assign its interest in the Ground Lease
reasonably promptly after such Event of Default, the Trustee shall be obligated
to the City to use its best efforts to lease or sublease the Project and the Site for
02/92115.4 35
the remainder of such Original or Renewal Term, as provided in paragraph (a)
of this Section 7.02, and the Net Proceeds of such leasing and subleasing shall
be offset against the amount recoverable from the City under this paragraph (ii).
(c) The Trustee may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear
necessary or desirable to enforce its rights in and to the Project and the Site under the
Lease, the Ground Lease and this Indenture.
No right or remedy is intended to be exclusive of any other rights or remedies, but each
and every such right or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. However,
notwithstanding any other provision of the Lease or this Indenture, any and all remedies against
the City under the Lease or this Indenture shall be limited as provided in Section 14.03 of the
Lease.
If any Event of Default shall have occurred and if requested by the Certificate Insurer
or, if there shall not be sufficient payments under the Policy of Insurance to pay the principal
of and interest on the Certificates when due, the Registered Owners of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of Certificates then Outstanding and indemnified as provided in
Section 8.01(m) hereof, the Trustee shall be obligated to exercise such one or more of the rights
and powers conferred by this Section as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem most
expedient in the interests of the Registered Owners.
Section 7.03. Certificate Insurer or Majority of Registered Owners May Control

right, at any time, to the extent permitted by law, by an instrument or instruments in writing
executed and delivered to the Trustee, to direct the time, method and place of conducting all
proceedings to be taken in connection with the enforcement of the terms and conditions of this
Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, and any other proceedings hereunder; provided

indemnity described in Section 8.01(m) of this Indenture is furnished to it by such Registered
Owners.
Section 7.04. Rights and Remedies of Registered Owners. No Registered Owner shall
have any right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law for the enforcement
of this Indenture or for the execution of any trust hereof or for the appointment of a receiver or
any other remedy hereunder, unless (a) a default has occurred of which the Trustee has been
notified as provided in Section 8.01(h) hereof, or of which by said Section 8.01(b) it is deemed
to have notice; (b) such default shall have become an Event of Default as defined in Section 7.01

granted or to institute such action, suit or proceedings in its own name; (d) such Registered
Owners of the Certificates shall have offered to the Trustee indemnity as provided in
Section 8.01(m) hereof; (e) the Trustee shall thereafter fail or refuse to exercise the powers
hereinbefore granted, or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name; and (f) if
the Certificate Insurer is not in default under the Policy of Insurance, the Certificate Insurer shall

precedent to the execution of the powers and trusts of this Indenture, and to any action or cause
of action for the enforcement of this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or for any
other remedy hereunder; it being understood and intended that no one or more Registered
Owners shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb or prejudice the lien
of this Indenture by any action or to enforce any right hereunder except in the manner herein
provided and that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted, had and maintained in
the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of the Registered Owners of all Certificates
then Outstanding. Nothing contained in this Indenture shall, however, affect or impair the right

Certificates Toward Purchase Price. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this
Indenture, the lien on the Project created and vested in the Trustee hereunder may be foreclosed

Owner or the Trustee may bid for and purchase the Project and, upon compliance with the terms
of sale, may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property in their own absolute right
without further accountability; and any purchaser at any such sale may, if permitted by law,
after allowing for the proportion of the total purchase price required to be paid in cash for the
costs and expenses of the sale, compensation and other charges, in paying purchase money, turn
in all Certificates then Outstanding in lieu of cash, to the amount which shall, upon distribution
of the Net Proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon. If the Trustee shall acquire title to the
Project as a result of any such foreclosure sale, or any proceeding or transaction in lieu of
foreclosure, the Trustee shall thereafter sell the Project (except as provided in paragraph (a) of
Section 7.02 of this Indenture); and may take any further lawful action with respect to the
Project which it, being advised by counsel and, so long as the Certificate Insurer is not in default
under the Policy of Insurance, after obtaining consent of the Certificate Insurer, shall deem to
be in the best interest of the Registered Owners, including but not limited to the enforcement
of all rights and remedies set forth in the Lease and this Indenture and the taking of all other
courses of action permitted therein or herein.
Section 7.06. Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay and Extension. The Lessor
agrees, to the extent permitted by law, that in case of the occurrence of an Event of Default,
neither the Lessor nor anyone claiming through or under the Lessor shall or will set up, claim
or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay or extension laws now or
hereafter in force in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Indenture,
or the absolute sale of the Trust Estate, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof,
02192115.4 37
immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereat; and the Lessor, for itself and all who may
at any time claim through or under the Lessor, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may
lawfully do so, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have the estates comprised
in the security intended to be hereby created and marshalled upon any foreclosure of the lien
hereof and agrees that the Trustee or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may
sell the Project and assign the Trustee's interest in the Site as an entirety; provided, however,
that Lessor, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under the Lessor, shall
retain all rights of redemption.
Section 7.07. Trustee May Enforce Rights Without Certificates. All rights of action
and claims under this Indenture or any of the Certificates Outstanding hereunder may be
enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Certificates or the production
thereof in any trial or proceedings relative thereto; and any suit or proceeding instituted by the
Trustee shall be brought in its name as the Trustee, without the necessity of joining as plaintiffs
or defendants any Registered Owners of the Certificates, and any recovery of judgment shall be
for the ratable benefit of the Registered Owners of the Certificates, subject to the provisions of
this Indenture.
Section 7.08. Delay or Omission No Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee, the
Certificate Insurer or of any Registered Owner to exercise any right or power accruing upon any
default shall exhaust or impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of
any such default, or acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by this Indenture
may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.
Section 7.09. No Waiver of One Default to Affect Another. No waiver of any default
hereunder, whether by the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer or the Registered Owners, shall
extend to or affect any subsequent or any other then existing default or shall impair any rights
or remedies consequent thereon.
Section 7.10. Discontinuance of Proceedings on Default; Position of Parties Restored.
In case the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer or the Registered Owners shall have proceeded to
enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, the
Certificate Insurer or the Registered Owners, then and in every such case the Lessor, the City,
the Certificate Insurer, the Trustee and the Registered Owners shall be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Trust Estate, and all rights, remedies and
powers of the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the Registered Owners shall continue as if no
such proceedings had been taken.
Section 7.11. Waivers of Events of Default. The Trustee may in its discretion waive
any Event of Default hereunder and its consequences upon the consent of the Certificate Insurer,
and notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Indenture shall do so upon
the written request of the Certificate Insurer, or, if the Certificate Insurer is in default under the
Policy of Insurance, the Registered Owners of two -thirds in aggregate principal amount of all
02/92115.4 38

the Certificates then Outstanding; provided, however, that there shall not be waived without the
consent of the Registered Owners of 100% of the Certificates then Outstanding as to which the
Event of Default exists (a) any Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or premium
on any Outstanding Certificates at the date of maturity specified therein or (b) any default in
the payment when due of the interest on any such Certificates, unless prior to such waiver or
rescission, all arrears of interest and all arrears of payments of principal and premium, if any,
then due, as the case may be, and all expenses of the Trustee in connection with such default
shall have been paid or provided for. In case of any such waiver, or in case any proceedings
taken by the Trustee on account of any such default shall have been discontinued or abandoned
or determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Lessor, the City, the
Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the Registered Owners shall be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder respectively, but no such waiver or rescission shall extend to any
subsequent or other default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

a certificate signed on behalf of the Lessor by the Lessor Representative, or on behalf
of the City by the City Representative or such other person as may be designated for

notified as provided in subsection (h) of this Section or of which by said subsection it is
deemed to have notice, shall also be at liberty to accept a similar certificate to the effect
that any particular dealing, transaction or action is necessary or expedient, but may as
is advisable, but shall in no case be bound to secure the same.

delivery of any Certificates, the withdrawal of any cash, or any action whatsoever within
the purview of this Indenture, any showings, certificates, opinions, appraisals or other

obligations and subject to the same restrictions, limitations and liabilities as its predecessor, all
without the execution or filing of any papers or any further act on the part of any of the parties
hereto or thereto, anything herein or therein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case any of the

Event of Default under the Indenture and the rights and remedies provided by the
Indenture upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall not apply to any such failure.
Section 11.09 of the Lease shall be enforceable only by specific performance, by any
Registered Owner of a Series 1995 Certificate, or by the Trustee, on behalf of the
Registered Owners of the Series 1995 Certificates, as further described in Section 11.09
of the Lease. The Lessor shall have any power or duty to enforce the obligations of the
City under Section 11.09 of the Lease.

which person will constitute an "obligated person" for purposes of the Rule, the Trustee
hereby agrees to require that such subsequent "obligated person" enter into an
undertaking which complies with the Rule as a condition to being permitted to use the
Project.

AMCELLANEOUS
Section 10.01. Evidence of Signature of Registered Owners and Ownership of
Certificates. Any request, consent or other instrument which this Indenture may require or
permit to be signed and executed by the Registered Owners may be in one or more instruments
of similar tenor, and shall be signed or executed by such Registered Owners in person or by
their attorneys appointed in writing. Proof of the execution of any such instrument or of an
instrument appointing any such attorney, or the ownership of Certificates shall be sufficient
(except as otherwise herein expressly provided) if made in the following manner, but the Trustee
may, nevertheless, in its discretion require further or other proof in cases where it deems the
same desirable:
(a) The fact and date of the execution by any Registered Owner or his or her

execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness of such execution, duly sworn to before
a notary public.

numbers of such Certificates, and the date of the owning of the same, may be proved by
a certificate executed by any trust company, bank or bankers, wherever situated, stating
that at the date thereof the party named therein did exhibit to an officer of such trust
company or bank or to such bankers, as the property of such party, the Certificates
therein mentioned, if such certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory.
The Trustee may, in its discretion, require evidence that such Certificates have been
deposited with a bank, bankers or trust company before taking any action based on such
ownership. In lieu of the foregoing the Trustee may accept other proofs of the foregoing

LEASE PURCHASE AND SUBLEASE AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
PUEBLO MUNICIPAL PROPERTY CORPORATION, AS LESSOR,
AND CITY OF PUEBLO, COLORADO, AS LESSEE
This certificate is one of an issue of Certificates evidencing assignments of proportionate
undivided interests in rights to receive certain Revenues, as described below, pursuant to the
Lease and the Indenture, issued, in an aggregate principal amount of $4,450,000 (the
"Series 1995 Certificates "), pursuant to the Indenture for the purpose, among others, of
providing funds to advance refund certain certificates of participation issued by the Lessor in
1989 to finance the acquisition, construction and equipping of a golf course facility (the "Golf
Course "), on a certain parcel of land (the "Site ") owned by the City and leased to the Lessor
pursuant to that certain Ground Lease Agreement, dated as of December 1, 1995 (the "Ground
Lease "), between the City as lessor thereunder, and the Lessor, as lessee thereunder.
Under the Lease, the Golf Course and the Equipment, as defined in the Lease
(collectively, the "Project "), have been leased by the Lessor to the City and the Site has been
subleased by the Lessor to the City; and the City has agreed to pay directly to the Trustee
semiannual rental payments (the "Base Rentals ") in consideration for its right to use the Project
and the Site, the proceeds of which are required by the Indenture to be distributed by the Trustee
to the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Certificates. In addition
to the Base Rentals, the City has agreed to make certain other payments (the "Additional
Rentals ") sufficient to pay the fees and expenses of the Trustee, certain insurance premiums,
taxes, utility charges, costs of maintenance and repair, payments to the Reserve Fund and the
Rebate Fund (as defined in the Lease) and other expenses expressly required to be paid by the
City under the Lease.
The Lease is subject to annual renewal at the option of the City. The obligation of the
City to pay Base Rentals and Additional Rentals under the Lease will terminate in the event that
the City, for any reason, fails to budget and appropriate, specifically with respect to the Lease,
moneys to pay all Base Rentals and reasonably estimated Additional Rentals during the next
occurring renewal term of the Lease. In the event that the Lease Term (as defined in the Lease)
is terminated by the City as set forth above (herein referred to as an "Event of
Nonappropriation ") or is terminated by reason of an Event of Default (as defined in the Lease),
the principal amount of this certificate and interest hereon will be payable from such moneys,
if any, as may be available for such purpose, including any moneys received by the Trustee from
subleasing the Site or any portion thereof, or leasing, selling or assigning its interest in the
02182115.4 A -5
Project, or from repossession or liquidation of the Equipment. Under certain circumstances, this
Certificate and the interest hereon may also be payable from the Net Proceeds (as defined in the
Lease) of title or casualty insurance policies, or condemnation awards. The Lease Term may
also be terminated in the event that the City shall exercise its option to purchase the Project by
making payment of the Purchase Option Price (as defined in the Lease). In the event that the
City shall pay the Purchase Option Price, the proceeds thereof are required to be used to pay
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Certificates.
MBIA Insurance Corporation (the "Certificate Insurer ") has agreed to provide a surety
bond in the principal amount of $442,500 to be deposited to the Reserve Fund established
pursuant to the Indenture and used to make payments on the Series 1995 Certificates when other
Revenues are not sufficient.
It is provided in the Indenture that there may hereafter be issued additional Certificates
( "Additional Certificates ") from time to time under certain terms and conditions, and if issued,
such Additional Certificates will be equally and proportionately secured under and entitled to the
protection given by the Indenture with the Certificates. Reference is hereby made to the Lease
and the Indenture for a description of the rights, duties and obligations of the City, the Lessor,
the Trustee and the Registered Owners, the terms upon which Additional Certificates may be
issued, the terms upon which the Certificates and any Additional Certificates are secured, the
terms and conditions upon which the Certificates will be deemed to be paid at or prior to
maturity or redemption of the Certificates upon the making of provision for the full or partial
payment thereof, and the rights of the Registered Owners upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default or an Event of Nonappropriation.
NEITHER THE LEASE NOR THE CERTIFICATES CONSTITUTES A GENERAL
OBLIGATION OR OTHER INDEBTEDNESS OF THE CITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF
ANY CONSTITUTIONAL, STATUTORY OR CHARTER DEBT LIMITATION. NEITHER
THE LEASE, THE INDENTURE NOR THE CERTIFICATES HAVE DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY OBLIGATED THE CITY TO MAKE ANY PAYMENTS BEYOND THOSE
APPROPRIATED FOR ANY FISCAL YEAR IN WHICH THE LEASE SHALL BE IN
EFFECT. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PAYABLE FROM THE PROCEEDS OF THE SALE
OF THE CERTIFICATES AND INCOME FROM THE INVESTMENT THEREOF, FROM
NET PROCEEDS OF CERTAIN INSURANCE POLICIES, PERFORMANCE BONDS AND
CONDEMNATION AWARDS, FROM NET PROCEEDS OF SUBLEASING OF THE SITE
OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, LEASING, SALE OR ASSIGNMENT OF THE TRUSTEE'S
INTEREST IN THE PROJECT, AND REPOSSESSION AND LIQUIDATION OF THE
EQUIPMENT OR FROM OTHER AMOUNTS MADE AVAILABLE UNDER THE
INDENTURE, THIS CERTIFICATE WILL BE PAYABLE DURING THE LEASE TERM
SOLELY FROM BASE RENTALS TO BE PAID BY THE CITY UNDER THE LEASE AND
THE INCOME FROM CERTAIN INVESTMENTS THEREUNDER. ALL PAYMENT
OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY UNDER THE LEASE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, THE OBLIGATION OF THE CITY TO PAY BASE RENTALS, ARE FROM
YEAR TO YEAR ONLY AND DO NOT CONSTITUTE A MANDATORY PAYMENT
02182115.4 A -6
OBLIGATION OF THE CITY IN ANY FISCAL YEAR BEYOND A FISCAL YEAR IN
WHICH THE LEASE SHALL BE IN EFFECT. THE LEASE IS SUBJECT TO ANNUAL
RENEWAL AT THE OPTION OF THE CITY AND WILL BE TERMINATED UPON THE
OCCURRENCE OF A TERMINATION EVENT. IN SUCH EVENT, ALL PAYMENTS
FROM THE CITY UNDER THE LEASE WILL TERMINATE, AND THIS CERTIFICATE

attorney duly authorized in writing on the registration books kept at the principal operations

instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Trustee. Upon such transfer, a new fully registered

terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture. The Trustee may deem and treat the person in
whose name this certificate is registered as the absolute owner hereof, whether or not this
certificate shall be overdue, for the purpose of receiving payment and for all other purposes, and
neither the City nor the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the ownership of the Series 1995 Certificates
is maintained in book -entry form by The Depository Trust Company (the "Securities
Depository") or a nominee thereof, this certificate may be transferred in whole but not in part
only to the Securities Depository or a nominee thereof or to a successor Securities Depository
or its nominee.
Certificates may be exchanged at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee for
a like aggregate principal amount of Certificates of the same date, maturity, series and interest
rate, or for a like aggregate principal amount of Certificates of other authorized denominations
of the same date, maturity, series and interest rate. The City shall authenticate and the Trustee
shall execute and deliver Certificates which the Registered Owner thereof making the exchange
is entitled to receive, bearing numbers not then outstanding.
The Trustee shall not be required to transfer or exchange the Certificates during the
period of 15 days next preceding any interest payment date of such Certificate nor to transfer
or exchange any Certificate after the publication or the mailing of notice calling such Certificate

W11 I IFFININ
for redemption has been given as herein provided, nor during the period of 15 days next
preceding the giving of such notice of redemption.
In the event that this certificate is called for redemption in part only, upon surrender and
cancellation of this certificate, a new fully registered Series 1995 Certificate or Series 1995
Certificates of the same maturity, of authorized denomination, in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the unredeemed portion hereof, shall be executed and delivered by the Trustee to the
Registered Owner hereof.
The Certificates are subject to redemption as follows:
(a) The Series 1995 Certificates shall be called for redemption on any date in
the event of, and to the extent that moneys are actually received by the Trustee from, the
exercise by the City of its option to purchase the Project, as provided in the Lease, upon
payment of the then applicable Purchase Option Price; provided, however, that
paragraph (b) below, and not this paragraph (a), shall apply in the event that the
Purchase Option Price is paid from moneys borrowed by the City or derived from any
installment purchase or lease purchase financing by the City.
(b) The Series 1995 Certificates maturing on or after December 1, 2006, shall
be callable for redemption prior to maturity, at the option of the City, on December 1,
2005 and on any date thereafter at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of
principal amount) of 100 % plus accrued interest to the redemption date.
(c) The Certificates shall be called for redemption in the event and only to the
extent that any Extraordinary Revenues (as defined in the Lease) are deposited into the
Extraordinary Redemption Fund, other than as provided in (a) or (b) above or in (d)
below.
(d) The Certificates may also be called for redemption as set forth below upon
the occurrence of a Termination Event.
In the event the Series 1995 Certificates are redeemed pursuant to (a) above, the Series
1995 Certificates shall be redeemed in whole, at a redemption price equal to the par amount of
the Series 1995 Certificates being redeemed, plus accrued interest to the redemption date.
In the event the Series 1995 Certificates are redeemed pursuant to (b) above, the Series
1995 Certificates shall be redeemed in whole; provided, however, that if Additional Certificates
are issue to provide the funds for such redemption, the Series 1995 Certificates may be
redeemed in part.
In the event that the Certificates are redeemed pursuant to (c) above, the Certificates shall
be redeemed in whole, or in part in inverse order of maturity and by lot within any maturity,
selected in such a manner as the Trustee shall determine, at a redemption price (expressed as
02192115.4 A -8
a percentage of principal amount) of 100% plus accrued interest to the redemption date, on the
first Business Day for which notice of redemption may be given. If the Certificates are
redeemed in part and less than all of the Certificates of a single maturity are to be redeemed,
the Trustee shall select Certificates of such maturity for redemption, by lot in such manner as
the Trustee shall determine.
Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event (as defined in the Indenture), the
Certificates shall be payable from such moneys as may be obtained by the Trustee through the
exercise of its rights under the Indenture, including any payments under the Policy of Insurance.
Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Trustee may, with the consent of the
Certificate Insurer, and shall, upon direction of the Certificate Insurer, commence proceedings
for subleasing the Site and leasing the Project or the sale or assignment of the Trustee's interest
in the Project and the Site as provided in the Indenture, and may, with the consent of the
Certificate Insurer, and shall upon direction of the Certificate Insurer, call the Certificates for
redemption from the Net Proceeds of such subleasing of the Site and leasing, sale or assignment
of the Project and all other moneys, if any, then on hand and being held by the Trustee for the
Registered Owners, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, at 100% of the principal amount
thereof plus accrued interest to the redemption date. In the event that such Net Proceeds and
other moneys are insufficient to redeem the Certificates at 100 % of the principal amount thereof
plus accrued interest to the redemption date, such Net Proceeds and other moneys shall be
allocated proportionately among the Certificates, according to the principal amount thereof
Outstanding. In the event that such Net Proceeds and other moneys are in excess of the amount
required to redeem the Certificates at 100 % of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest
to the redemption date, then such excess moneys shall be applied to reimburse the Certificate
Insurer for any payments made under the Policy of Insurance and the balance shall be paid to
the City. Prior to any distribution of such Net Proceeds in redemption of the Certificates, the
Trustee shall be entitled to payment of its customary fees for all services rendered in connection
with such liquidation, as well as reimbursement for all costs and expenses incurred thereby from
the proceeds of such foreclosure and sale. A REGISTERED OWNER SHOULD NOT
ANTICIPATE THAT IT WILL BE POSSIBLE TO FORECLOSE ON AND SELL THE
PROJECT FOR AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF
THE CERTIFICATES THEN OUTSTANDING PLUS ACCRUED INTEREST THEREON.
IF THE CERTIFICATES ARE REDEEMED SUBSEQUENT TO THE OCCURRENCE OF A
TERMINATION EVENT FOR AN AMOUNT LESS THAN THE AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL
AMOUNT THEREOF PLUS ACCRUED INTEREST TO THE REDEMPTION DATE, NO
REGISTERED OWNER OF ANY CERTIFICATE SHALL HAVE ANY FURTHER CLAIM
FOR PAYMENT AGAINST THE CITY, THE LESSOR OR THE TRUSTEE. IN SUCH AN
EVENT, THE REGISTERED OWNERS OF THE CERTIFICATES SHALL BE ENTITLED
TO PAYMENTS SOLELY FROM THE POLICY OF INSURANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH
ITS TERMS.
In the event any of the Certificates are called for redemption as aforesaid, the Trustee
shall cause notice of the call for redemption, identifying the Certificates or portions thereof to
be redeemed, to be given by mailing, at least 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the
02182115.4 A -9
redemption date, as provided in the Indenture. All Certificates so called for redemption shall
cease to bear interest after the specified redemption date, provided that such funds as may be
available for their redemption pursuant to the Lease (which, in the case of a Termination Event,
as defined in the Indenture, may be less than the full principal amount of the outstanding
Certificates and accrued interest thereon to the redemption date) are on deposit at the place of
payment at that time.
The Trustee shall pay to the Registered Owners of Certificates to be redeemed, or their
representatives duly authorized in writing, the amounts due on their respective Certificates at the
principal corporate trust office of the Trustee; provided, however, that, if redeemed in part, the
Certificates may only be redeemed in multiples of $5,000. Redemption payments shall be
accompanied by a written designation prepared by the Trustee stating the portion of the payment
representing the unpaid principal amount of each Certificate immediately prior to the payment,
the portion representing interest and the remaining portion, if any, which shall be designated and
paid as a redemption premium.
The Trustee may waive an Event of Nonappropriation or an Event of Default under
certain circumstances as provided in the Lease and the Indenture.
The Indenture permits amendments thereto and to the Lease, upon the agreement of the
City and the Trustee and compliance with the other requirements of the Indenture, including but
not limited to, in certain cases the approval of the Registered Owners of not less than two -thirds
or, for certain amendments, 100% in aggregate principal amount of the Certificates at the time
Outstanding, as defined in the Lease. The Lease also contains provisions permitting the City
and the Trustee to enter into amendments to the Indenture and the Lease without the consent of
the Registered Owners of the Certificates for certain purposes, including, without limitation, the
issuance of Additional Certificates for certain purposes. The Indenture requires the written
consent of the Trustee to any amendment of the Indenture or the Lease which modifies the
rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee.
Any consent or request by the Registered Owner of this certificate shall be conclusive
and binding upon such owner and upon all future Registered Owners of this Certificate and of
any Certificate issued upon the transfer of this certificate whether or not notation of such consent
or request is made upon this certificate.
The Indenture provides that, so long as the Certificate Insurer is not in default under the
Policy of Insurance, the Certificate Insurer is deemed to be the exclusive owner of all of the
Certificates for the purpose of execution and delivery of any supplemental indenture (except as
otherwise provided in the Indenture) or of any amendment, change or modification of the Lease
or other actions requiring the written consent of a specified percentage of Registered Owners.
In addition, the Indenture provides that the Certificate Insurer has the exclusive right to direct
any action or remedy to be undertaken by the Trustee at the Registered Owners' or any other
party's request pursuant to the Lease and the Indenture.

other amounts, including, without limitation, any interest payable with respect to any Surety
Bond Payments then due to the Insurer.

but only to the extent, that the Document, or any related indenture, trust agreement, ordinance,
resolution, mortgage, security agreement or similar instrument, if any, pledges to the Owners

revenue or other payments ( "Collateral and Revenues ") in order to secure the Obligations or
provide a source of payment for the Obligations, the Issuer hereby grants to the Insurer a
security interest in or lien on, as the case may be, and pledges to the Insurer all such Collateral

and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, any and all financing
statements, if applicable, and all other further instruments as may be required by law or as shall

modification of, or waiver with respect to the Obligations, the Document or any other
document executed in connection with the issuance of the Obligations; or
(b) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any security interest in property
securing the Obligations or this Agreement or any obligations hereunder; or
(c) any circumstances that might otherwise constitute a defense available to,
or discharge of, the Issuer with respect to the Obligations, the Document or any other
document executed in connection with the issuance of the Obligations; or
(d) whether or not such obligations are contingent or matured, disputed or
undisputed, liquidated or unliquidated.
Section 2.05. Insurer's Rights. Subject to Section 2.01(f) hereof, the Issuer shall repay
the Insurer to the extent of payments made and expenses incurred by the Insurer in connection
with the Obligations and this Agreement. The obligation of the Issuer to repay such amounts
shall be subordinate only to the rights of the Owners to receive regularly scheduled principal and
interest on the Obligations.

or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege

privilege. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive
of any rights or remedies which the Insurer would otherwise have pursuant to law or equity.

notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, or constitute a waiver of the right of the
other party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

amended, waived, supplemented, discharged or terminated only with the prior written consent

the Surety Bond, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of such other surety, its successors

Agreement, and "the Insurer," wherever used herein, shall be deemed to include such reinsuring
surety, as its respective interests may appear.
Section 6.06. Signature on Bond. The Issuer's liability shall not be affected by its
failure to sign the Surety Bond nor by any claim that other indemnity or security was to have
been obtained nor by the release of any indemnity, nor the return or exchange of any collateral
that may have been obtained.
Section 6.07. Waiver. The Issuer waives any defense that this Agreement was executed
subsequent to the date of the Surety Bond, admitting and covenanting that such Surety Bond was

Agreement.
