There is maintained a special revenue fund of the City known as the "Harbor Enterprise Fund"
into which all Pledged Revenues are deposited. All Pledged Revenues shall be deposited in the
Harbor Enterprise Fund. The Harbor Enterprise Fund shall be held separate and apart from all other
funds and accounts of the City and the Pledged Revenues deposited in such fund shall be used only
for the following purposes and in the following order of priority:
First, to pay the Operating Expenses, to the extent not already paid;
Second, to pay the interest on any Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the issuer of a
Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified Insurance if the Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified
Insurance secures the payment of interest on Parity Bonds and the proceedings authorizing such
Parity Bonds provides for such reimbursement;
Third, to pay the principal of any Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the issuer of a
Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified Insurance if the Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified
Insurance secures the payment of principal of Parity Bonds and the proceedings authorizing such
Parity Bonds provides for such reimbursement;
Fourth, to make all payments required to be made into the Reserve Account to secure the payment
of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and to make all payments required to be made into
any reserve account hereafter established to secure the payment of the principal of or interest on
any Future Parity Bonds, including reimbursements to the issuer of a Qualified Letter of Credit or
Qualified Insurance if the Qualified Letter of Credit or Qualified Insurance fulfills the Reserve
11
4932-7592-1541.4
Requirement in whole or in part and the proceedings authorizing such Parity Bonds provides for
such reimbursement;
Fifth, to make all payments required to be made into any revenue bond redemption fund or revenue
warrant redemption fund and debt service fund or reserve fund created to pay and secure the
payment of the principal of and interest on any other revenue bonds or revenue warrants of the
City having a lien upon the Pledged Revenues junior and inferior to the lien thereon for the

Sixth, to make all required payments of charges or fees in lieu of City taxes; and
Seventh, to retire by redemption or purchase any outstanding revenue bonds or revenue warrants
of the City, and/or to make necessary additions, betterments, improvements and repairs to or

SECTION 8. BOND FUND.
A special account of the City designated as the "Harbor Improvement Revenue Bond Account"
(the "Bond Fund") is hereby authorized to be created and maintained in the office of the City
Finance Director for the purpose of paying and securing the payment of the Bonds and all Parity
Bonds. The Bond Fund shall be held separate and apart from all other accounts of the City and
shall be a trust account for the owner of Parity Bonds. The Bond Fund shall be divided into two
separate accounts: a Principal and Interest Account for the payment of the principal of and interest
on Parity Bonds and the payment of redemption premium, if any, whether due at maturity or
redemption prior to maturity and a Reserve Account for the purpose of additionally securing the
repayment of Parity Bonds.
(a) Payments Into Principal and Interest Account. The City Finance Director may
direct all or a portion of the original issue premium to be deposited in the Principal and Interest
Account.
As long as any Parity Bonds remain outstanding, the City hereby irrevocably obligates and binds
itself to set aside and pay from the Harbor Enterprise Fund into the Principal and Interest Account
those amounts necessary, together with such other funds as are on hand and available in the
Principal and Interest Account, to pay the interest or principal and interest next coming due on
outstanding Parity Bonds. Such payments from the Harbor Enterprise Fund shall be made on or
prior to the due date for such installment of principal and interest.
(b) Priority of Lien of Payments into Principal and Interest Account. Said amounts so
pledged to be paid into the Bond Fund with respect to the Bonds are hereby declared to be a prior
lien and charge upon the Pledged Revenues superior to all other charges of any kind or nature
whatsoever except for costs of operation and maintenance; except that the amounts so pledged are
of equal lien to the lien and charge thereon of any Future Parity Bonds.
(c) Reserve Account. A Reserve Account (the "Reserve Account") is hereby
authorized to be created in the Bond Fund for the purpose of securing the payment of the principal
of and interest on all Parity Bonds. The City hereby covenants to deposit into the Reserve Account
12
4932-7592-1541.4
on the date of issuance of the Bonds from Bond proceeds and/or from funds of the City legally
available therefor an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement with respect to the Bonds.
The City further covenants and agrees that when said required deposits have been made into the
Reserve Account, it will at all times maintain therein an amount at least equal to the Reserve
Requirement with respect to all outstanding Parity Bonds. Whenever there is an insufficient
amount in the Bond Fund, including the Reserve Account and the Principal and Interest Account
to pay the principal of and interest on all outstanding Parity Bonds when due, the money in the
Reserve Account may be used to pay such principal and interest. Money in the Reserve Account
may be withdrawn to redeem and retire, and to pay the interest due to such date of redemption on
any outstanding Bonds, so long as the money left remaining on deposit in the Reserve Account is
equal to the Reserve Requirement with respect to all outstanding Parity Bonds.
The City may satisfy the Reserve Requirement, in whole or in part with a Qualified Letter of Credit
or Qualified Insurance. In making the payments and credits to the Reserve Account required by
this subsection (c), to the extent that the City has obtained Qualified Insurance or a Qualified Letter
of Credit for specific amounts required pursuant to this section to be paid out of the Reserve
Account, such amounts so covered by Qualified Insurance or a Qualified Letter of Credit shall be
credited against the amounts required to be maintained in the Reserve Account by this subsection
(c) to the extent that such payments and credits to be made are insured by an insurance company,
or guaranteed by a letter of credit from a financial institution. A Qualified Letter of Credit shall
not be cancelable on less than 30 days' notice to the City, and Qualified Insurance shall be
noncancellable. In the event of any cancellation of a Qualified Letter of Credit, the Reserve
Account shall be funded in accordance with the third paragraph of this subsection (c) as if the
Parity Bonds for whose benefit the Qualified Letter of Credit was issued which then remain
outstanding had been issued on the date of such notice of cancellation.
In the event that the City elects to meet the Reserve Requirement through the use of a Qualified
Letter of Credit, Qualified Insurance or other equivalent credit enhancement device, the City may
contract with the entity providing such Qualified Letter of Credit, Qualified Insurance or other
equivalent credit enhancement device that the City's reimbursement obligation, if any, to such
entity shall be made from Pledged Revenues available after the payments described in Paragraphs
First through Fourth in Section 7 hereof have been made.
In the event a deficiency in the Principal and Interest Account shall occur, the deficiency shall be
made up from the Reserve Account by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for that purpose and by
the sale or redemption of obligations held in the Reserve Account, if necessary, in such amounts
as will provide cash in the Reserve Account sufficient to make up any such deficiency, and if a
deficiency still exists immediately prior to an interest payment date and after the withdrawal of
cash, the City shall then draw from any Qualified Letter of Credit, Qualified Insurance, or other
equivalent credit facility that secures the Parity Bonds in sufficient amount to make up the
deficiency. Such draw shall be made at such times and under such conditions as the agreement for
such Qualified Letter of Credit or such Qualified Insurance shall provide. Any deficiency created
in the Reserve Account by reason of any such withdrawal shall then be made up within one year
of the date of withdrawal from Pledged Revenues after making necessary provision for making the
payments described in Paragraphs First through Fourth in Section 7 hereof.

and Interest Account not needed to pay the interest or principal installment and interest next
coming due on Parity Bonds may be used to prepay Parity Bonds. Money in the Bond Fund therein

derived by virtue of such investments shall remain in the Bond Fund (or respective account therein)
and be used to meet the required deposits into any account therein.
SECTION 9. SALE OF BONDS AND LOAN AGREEMENT.
The City Representative is authorized to enter into the Loan Agreement with the Bond Bank. The
City Representative is authorized to negotiate and complete the sale of the Bonds in one or more

City, obtain a policy of municipal bond insurance guaranteeing the payment when due of the
principal of and interest on a series of the Bond Bank's Bonds issued to provide funds for the loan
to the City pursuant to a Loan Agreement. By the Loan Agreement, the City Representative may
approve any such policy of municipal bond insurance and authorize all other officers, agents,
attorneys, and employees of the City to cooperate with the bond insurer in preparing such
additional agreements, certificates, and other documentation on behalf of the City, consistent with
this Resolution, as shall be necessary or advisable in providing for such policy of municipal bond
insurance.
The City Representative may also obtain a surety policy in order to satisfy the Reserve
Requirement on the condition that the surety policy meets the requirements of Qualified Insurance
on terms and conditions determined to be acceptable to the City Representative. The City
Representative may execute such additional agreements or certificates and provide such
documentation to the issuer of such surety policy as shall be necessary or advisable in providing
for such surety policy.
In connection with the initial issuance and sale of the Bonds to the Bond Bank, and notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 19 of this Resolution to the contrary, the Council may by resolution
modify any of the covenants or other provisions of this Resolution as may be required by a provider
of bond insurance or a surety policy for the Bond Bank's Bonds.

SECTION 12. DISPOSITION OF PROCEEDS OF THE BONDS.

a Credit Facility or other revenues, a portion of the Bond proceeds in the amount designated by
the City Finance Director shall be deposited in the Reserve Account in order to meet the Reserve
Requirement.
A Project Fund (the "Project Fund") is hereby authorized to be created and maintained for the
purpose of paying certain costs of the Project. The balance of the proceeds of sale of the Bonds of
a series shall be deposited in the Project Fund and shall be expended solely to pay the cost of the
Project, and pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. Money in the Project Fund shall be invested by

In the event that money and/or noncallable Government Obligations maturing or having
guaranteed redemption prices at the option of the holder at such time or times and bearing interest
to be earned thereon in amounts (together with such money, if any) sufficient to redeem and retire
part or all of the Bonds in accordance with the its terms, are hereafter irrevocably set aside in a
special account and pledged to effect such redemption and retirement, then no further payments
need be made into the Bond Fund or any account therein for the payment of the principal of and
interest on the Bonds or portion thereof so provided for and the Bonds or portion thereof shall then
cease to be entitled to any lien, benefit or security of this Resolution, except the right to receive
the accounts so set aside and pledged, and the Bonds or portion thereof shall no longer be deemed
to be outstanding hereunder.
SECTION 14. SPECIFIC COVENANTS.

Boat Harbor in good repair, working order and condition, and also will at all times operate such
facilities and the business in connection therewith in an efficient manner and at a reasonable cost.

of insurance on such of the buildings, equipment, property and facilities of the City of Seward
Small Boat Harbor as are ordinarily insured in such amounts and with such deductibles as under

but such insurance shall in all events be in an amount at least equal to the lesser of: (i) 80% of the
estimated replacement cost of the insurable parts of the City of Seward Small Boat Harbor or (ii)

insurance, the City shall also carry public liability insurance and such other types of insurance as
are usually carried by municipal corporations operating like properties. All such insurance shall be
carried with responsible insurers and the policies shall be payable to the City.

to the date or dates on which they first may be redeemed and all provisions of the Federal Tax
Certificate are complied with, nor will it sell or otherwise dispose of any part of the City of Seward
Small Boat Harbor which is material to the production of Pledged Revenues unless, in the opinion

Revenues sufficient to enable the City to comply with the requirements of this Resolution and each

Certificate are complied with.
