RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, MAKING FINDINGS PURSUANT TO HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE SECTION 33445.1 RELATING TO PAYMENT OF ALL OR PART OF THE COSTS OF THE BOAT LAUNCH PROJECT; 3. RESOLUTION OF THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING THE FUNDING OF THE BOAT LAUNCH PROJECT AGENDA ITEM NO. 5 Page 1 of 142 Resolutions Re Bonds and Boat Launch Project Funding January 25, 2011 Page 2 Background The Lake is the centerpiece of the City's recreational resources and a valuable contributor to the vitality and economic development of the community. Safe and reliable access to the Lake is essential to maximizing its resource value. The existing boat launch facility is in a dilapidated physical condition and provides limited access to the Lake. The boat launch is currently under water and can be utilized only when the Lake is at an elevation of approximately 1240-feet mean sea level (MSL) which is below the optimal Lake level. The City has received a $3 million grant from the State of California for the purpose of constructing a modern boat launch and related ancillary facilities to be located at the City Campground (the "Boat Launch Project"). The Boat Launch Project will result in a usable launch up to elevation 1255 MSL, the maximum normal level of the Lake. The general items of work to be performed include dredging, earthwork, grading, electrical, plumbing, AC & concrete pavement, stormwater drainage, landscaping, dock pilings and compliance with environmental permit conditions for constructing the following improvements: • Demolition of old boat launch facility; • Six lane boat launch ramp, with boat staging area; • Vehicle and boat trailer parking lot with 270 spaces; • Restroom facility with eight stalls; • Entry kiosk; • Two 400-foot long floating breakwater/dock system with anchor guide piles; • Landscaped picnic area with lighting, and • Fish Cleaning Station. In order for the Boat Launch Project to move forward and utilize the State's grant, additional funding is necessary. Discussion All of the Lake edge is within a redevelopment project area and improvements to and around the Lake, including the proposed Boat Launch Project with greater access to the Lake promotes both recreational and economic development opportunities benefitting the project areas and the community as a whole. The City's/Agency's Finance Team has been studying for several months the potential sources for funding construction of the Boat Launch Project. Redevelopment Project Area No. 1 has sufficient tax increment revenues available to pay debt service on bonds, the proceeds of which can be used to assist in the funding of the Boat Launch Project. Additional or alternative funding sources are simply not available. Page 2 of 142 Resolutions Re Bonds and Boat Launch Project Funding January 25, 2011 Page 3 The Boat Launch Project is consistent with and in furtherance of the goals and objectives of the Amended and Restated Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Laguna Redevelopment Project Area No. 1 (the "Redevelopment Plan") and the Agency's Redevelopment and Housing Implementation Plan for 2009-2014 (the "Implementation Plan"). These include the elimination of blighting by providing for the planning, development, re-planning, redesign, redevelopment, reconstruction and rehabilitation of public improvements and facilities that are currently stagnant, improperly utilized and/or inadequately served as may be appropriate or necessary in the interest of the general welfare. Consistent with the structure of recent bonds issuances, the proposed Bonds would be issued by the Public Finance Authority and the proceeds then loaned to the Redevelopment Agency. The Redevelopment Agency will then, in keeping with its commitment to eliminate blight and assist in the economic redevelopment of Project Area No. 1, contribute the net bond proceeds to the Boat Launch Project. The Agency will pledge tax increment revenues from Project Area No. 1 in order to meet debt service payments for the next 10 years. The Bonds will be sized in an amount necessary to complete the funding of the Boat Launch Project. Because of the uncertainty of interest rates, it is recommended that the City and Agency authorize the issuance of the Bonds in an amount not to exceed $6,000,000. This higher par amount allows for some flexibility in the final pricing of the bonds. Documents To Be Approved Approval of the attached Resolutions will authorize the execution of the following documents: 1. Indenture of Trust 2. Loan Agreements 3. Preliminary Official Statement 4. Continuing Disclosure 5. Bond Purchase Contract. In addition to the Bond approval, Health and Safety Code Section 33445.1 requires that the City make certain findings before the Redevelopment Agency commits funding for public improvement projects. Those findings include: 1. The development of the Boat Launch Project is of primary benefit to the Project Area. 2. The construction of the Boat Launch Project will help to eliminate blight in the Project Area. 3. There are no other reasonable means of financing the Boat Launch Project available to the community. Page 3 of 142 Resolutions Re Bonds and Boat Launch Project Funding January 25, 2011 Page 4 4. The payment of redevelopment funds is consistent with the Agency's Redevelopment and Housing Implementation Plan for 2009-2014 adopted pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33490. 5. The construction of recreational and replacement facilities like the Boat Launch Project is provided for in the Redevelopment Plan. A City resolution containing these findings is attached for the City Council's consideration. Finally, the Redevelopment Agency is obligated to make findings that assisting in the funding of the Boat Launch Project will: 1. Assist in the elimination of blight 2. Effectuate the purposes of the Redevelopment Plan 3. Comply with the Agency's Redevelopment and Housing Implementation Plan for 2009-2014 An Agency resolution containing these findings is attached for the Agency Board's consideration. Fiscal Impact The authorization will result in additional bonded indebtedness to the Redevelopment Agency in an amount not to exceed $6,000,000. Public Notice Process The item has been noticed by way of a published notice of public hearing and through the regular Agenda notification process. Legal Review Bond Counsel has reviewed the related financing documents and approved them as to form.

(4) The payment of funds for the cost of the Boat Launch Project is consistent with the Agency's Implementation Plan for 2009-2014; and Page 7 of 142 (5) The provision for park/recreation facilities and replacement facilities is provided for in the Redevelopment Plan.

"Gross Proceeds" means any proceeds as defined in section 1.148-1(b) of the Tax Regulations (referring to sales, investment and transferred proceeds), and any replacement proceeds as defined in section 1.148-1(c) of the Tax Regulations, of the Bonds. "Investment" has the meaning set forth in section 1.148-1(b) of the Tax Regulations. "Nonpurpose Investment" means any investment property, as defined in section 148(b) of the Code, in which Gross Proceeds of the Bonds are invested and that is not acquired to carry out the governmental purposes of that series of Bonds.

(f) Not Federally Guaranteed. Except to the extent permitted by section 149(b) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder, the Authority shall not take or omit to take (and shall not permit any person to take or omit to take) any action that would cause any Bond to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder. 76981111.1 28 Page 57 of 142 (g) Information Re o~rt.

Upon the Written Request of the Authority, the Trustee shall pay over to the Authority amounts in the Rebate Account for such purpose. In all cases, such rebate payments shall be made by the Authority at the times and in the amounts as are or may be required by section 148(f) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder, and shall be accompanied by Form 8038-T or such other forms and information as is or may be required by section 148(f) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder for execution and filing by the Authority.

Except to the extent permitted by section 148 of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder, the Authority shall not and shall not permit any person to, at any time prior to the final cancellation of the last of the Bonds 76981111.1 29 Page 58 of 142 to be retired, enter into any transaction that reduces the amount required to be paid to the United States pursuant to paragraph (h) of this Section because such transaction results in A smaller profit or a larger loss than would have resulted if the transaction had been at arm's length and had the Yields on the Bonds not been relevant to either party. 0) Bonds Not Hedge Bonds.

(c) The Trustee shall not be responsible for any recital herein, in the Loan Agreement or in the Bonds, or for any of the supplements hereto or thereto or instruments of further assurance, or for the sufficiency of the security for the Bonds issued hereunder or intended to be secured hereby and the Trustee shall not be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the observance or performance of any covenants, conditions or agreements on the part of the Authority hereunder. (d) The Trustee may become the Owner of Bonds secured hereby with the same rights which it would have if not the Trustee; may acquire and dispose of other bonds or evidences of indebtedness of the Authority with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee; and may act as a depository for and permit any of its officers or directors to act as a member of, or in any other capacity with respect to, any committee formed to protect the rights of Owners of Bonds, whether or not such committee shall represent the Owners of the majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding. (e) The Trustee shall be protected in acting, in good faith, upon any notice, request, consent, certificate, order, affidavit, letter, telegram or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee in good faith pursuant to this Indenture upon the request or authority or consent of any person who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the Owner of any Bond, shall be conclusive and binding upon all future Owners of the same Bond and upon Bonds issued in exchange therefor or in place thereof. The Trustee shall not be bound to recognize any person as an Owner of any Bond or to take any action at his request unless the ownership of such Bond by such person shall be reflected on the Registration Books. (f) As to the existence or non-existence of any fact or as to the sufficiency or validity of any instrument, paper or proceeding, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon a Certificate of the Authority as sufficient evidence of the facts therein contained and prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder of which the Trustee has been given notice or is deemed to have notice, as provided in Section 6.02(h) hereof, shall also be at liberty to accept a Certificate of the Authority to the effect that any particular dealing, transaction or action is necessary or expedient, but may at its discretion secure such further evidence deemed by it to be necessary or advisable, but shall in no case be bound to secure the same. (g) The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty and it shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct. The immunities and exceptions from liability of the Trustee shall extend to its officers, directors, employees and agents. 76981111.1 33 Page 62 of 142 (h) The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or hereunder except failure by the Agency to make any of the payments to the Trustee required to be made by the Agency pursuant to the Loan Agreement or failure by the Authority or the Agency to file with the Trustee any document required by this Indenture or the Loan Agreement to be so filed subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds, unless the Trustee shall be specifically notified in writing of such default by the Authority or by the Owners of at least twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding and all notices or other instruments required by this Indenture to be delivered to the Trustee must, in order to be effective, be delivered at the Trust Office of the Trustee, and in the absence of such notice so delivered the Trustee may conclusively assume there is no Event of Default hereunder except as aforesaid. (i) At any and all reasonable times the Trustee, and its duly authorized agents, attorneys, experts, accountants and representatives, shall have the right (but not the duty) fully to inspect all books, papers and records of the Authority pertaining to the Bonds, and to make copies of any of such books, papers and records such as may be desired but which is not privileged by statute or by law. 6) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of the said trusts and powers or otherwise in respect of the premises hereof. (k) Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this Indenture with respect to the execution of any Bonds, the withdrawal of any cash, the release of any property, or any action whatsoever within the purview of this Indenture, the Trustee shall have the right, but shall not be required, to demand any showings, certificates, opinions, appraisals or other information, or corporate action or evidence thereof, as may be deemed desirable for the purpose of establishing the right of the Authority to the execution of any Bonds, the withdrawal of any cash, or the taking of any other action by the Trustee. (1) Before taking the action referred to in Section 8.02, the Trustee may require that a satisfactory indemnity bond be furnished for the reimbursement of all expenses to which it may be put and to protect it against all liability, except liability which is adjudicated to have resulted from its negligence or willful default in connection with any such action. (m) All moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied or invested as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. (n) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to any information, statements or recital in any offering memorandum or other disclosure material prepared or distributed with respect to the issuance of the Bonds. Section 6.03 Fees, Charges and Expenses of Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled to payment and reimbursement for reasonable fees for its services rendered hereunder and all advances, counsel fees (including expenses) and other expenses reasonably and necessarily made or incurred by the Trustee in connection with such services. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, but only upon an Event of Default, the Trustee shall have a first lien with 76981111.1 34 Page 63 of 142 right of payment prior to payment of any Bond upon the amounts held hereunder for the foregoing fees, charges and expenses incurred by it respectively. The Trustee's right to payment of its fees and expenses shall survive the discharge and payment or defeasance of the Bonds and termination of the Indenture, and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Section 6.04 Notice to Owners of Default. If an Event of Default hereunder occurs with respect to any Bonds of which the Trustee has been given or is deemed to have notice, as provided in Section 6.02(h) hereof, then the Trustee shall promptly give written notice thereof by first-class mail to the Owner of each such Bond, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured before the giving of such notice; provided, however, that unless such Event of Default consists of the failure by the Authority to make any payment when due, the Trustee may elect not to give such notice to the Owners if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that such Event of Default does not materially adversely affect the interests of the Owners or that it is otherwise not in the best interests of the Owners to give such notice. Section 6.05 Intervention by Trustee. In any judicial proceeding to which the Authority is a party which, in the opinion of the Trustee and its counsel, has a substantial bearing on the interests of Owners of any of the Bonds arising under this Indenture, the Trustee may intervene on behalf of such Owners, and subject to Section 6.02(1) hereof, shall do so if requested in writing by the Owners of at least twenty-five percent (25%) aggregate principal amount of such Bonds then Outstanding. Section 6.06 Removal of Trustee. The Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds may at any time, or the Authority may (and the Authority, at the request of the Agency shall) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, remove the Trustee initially appointed, and any successor thereto, by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Trustee at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of each removal, whereupon the Authority or such Owners, as the case may be, shall appoint a successor or successors thereto; provided that any such successor shall be a bank or trust company meeting the requirements set forth in Section 6.01. Section 6.07 Resignation by Trustee. The Trustee and any successor Trustee may at any time give thirty (30) days' written notice of its intention to resign as Trustee hereunder, such notice to be given to the Authority and the Agency by registered or certified mail. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Authority shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Section 6.08 Appointment of Successor Trustee. In the event of the removal or resignation of the Trustee pursuant to Sections 6.06 or 6.07, respectively, with the prior written consent of the Agency, the Authority shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. In the event the Authority shall for any reason whatsoever fail to appoint a successor Trustee within ninety (90) days following the delivery to the Trustee of the instrument described in Section 6.06 or within ninety (90) days following the receipt of notice by the Authority pursuant to Section 6.07, the Trustee may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee meeting the requirements of Section 6.01 hereof. Any such successor Trustee appointed by such court shall become the successor Trustee hereunder notwithstanding any action by the Authority purporting to appoint a successor Trustee following the expiration of such ninety-day period. 76981111.1 35 Page 64 of 142 Any resignation or removal of the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.06 or Section 6.07 and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective upon written acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee. Upon such acceptance, the Authority shall cause notice thereof to be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Owners at their respective addresses set forth on the Registration Books. Section 6.09 Merger or Consolidation. Any company into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any company resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which it shall be a party or any company to which the Trustee may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business, provided that such company shall meet the requirements set forth in Section 6.01, shall be the successor to the Trustee and vested with all of the title to the trust estate and all of the trusts, powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and all other matters as was its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any paper or further act, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Section 6.10 Concerning any Successor Trustee. Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor and also to the Authority an instrument in writing accepting such appointment hereunder and thereupon such successor, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its predecessors; but such predecessor shall, nevertheless, on the Written Request of the Authority, or of the Trustee's successor, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all the estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts of such predecessor hereunder; and every predecessor Trustee shall deliver all securities and moneys held by it as the Trustee hereunder to its successor. Should any instrument in writing from the Authority be required by any successor Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in such successor the estate, rights, powers and duties hereby vested or intended to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Authority. Section 6.11 Appointment of Co-Trustee. It is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction (including particularly the law of the State) denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as Trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in the case of litigation under this Indenture, and in particular in case of the enforcement of the rights of the Trustee on default, or in the case the Trustee deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted, or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that the Trustee appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee. The following provisions of this Section 6.11 are adopted to these ends. In the event that the Trustee appoints an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vested in such separate or co-trustee but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate or co-trustee to 76981111.1 36 Page 65 of 142 exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or co-trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them. Should any instrument in writing from the Authority be required by the separate trustee or co-trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Authority. In case any separate trustee or co-trustee, or a successor to either, shall become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such separate trustee or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment of a new trustee or successor to such separate trustee or co-trustee. Section 6.12 Indemnification; Limited Liability of Trustee. The Authority further covenants and agrees to indemnify and save the Trustee and its officers, directors, agents and employees, harmless against any loss, costs, claims, expense and liabilities which it may incur arising out of or in the exercise and performance of its powers and duties hereunder or under any Loan Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability, but excluding any and all losses, costs, claims, expenses and liabilities which are due to the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees. No provision in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to risk or expend its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability hereunder if it is not assured to its satisfaction that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such liability or risk is not assured to it. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the direction of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Bonds Outstanding relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding or remedy available to the Trustee under this Indenture. The obligations of the Authority under this paragraph shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee under this Indenture or any defeasance of the Bonds. ARTICLE VII MODIFICATION AND AMENDMENT OF THE INDENTURE Section 7.01 Amendment Hereof. This Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Authority and of the Owners of the Bonds may be modified or amended at any time by a Supplemental Indenture which shall become binding upon execution by the Authority and the Trustee, without consent of any Owners, to the extent permitted by law but only for any one or more of the following purposes: (a) to add to the covenants and agreements of the Authority contained in this Indenture, other covenants and agreements hereafter to be observed, to pledge or assign additional security for the Bonds (or any portion thereof), or to surrender any right or power herein reserved to or conferred upon the Authority; (b) to make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, inconsistency or omission, or of curing or correcting any defective provision, contained in this Indenture, or in any other respect whatsoever, as the Authority may deem necessary or desirable, 76981111.1 37 Page 66 of 142 provided that such modification or amendment does not materially adversely affect the interests of the Owners in the opinion of Bond Counsel; (c) to modify, amend or supplement the Indenture in such manner as to permit the qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, or any similar federal statute hereafter in effect, and to add such other terms, conditions and provisions as may be permitted by said act or similar federal statute: (d) to make such additions, deletions or modifications as may be necessary or desirable to assure exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds: or (e) to facilitate the issuance of additional obligations of the Agency pursuant to a Loan Agreement. Except as set forth in the preceding paragraph of this Section 7.01, this Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Authority and of the Owners of the Bonds may only be modified or amended at any time by a Supplemental Indenture which shall become binding when the written consents of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding are filed with the Trustee. No such modification or amendment shall (a) extend the maturity of or reduce the interest rate on any Bond or otherwise alter or impair the obligation of the Authority to pay the principal, interest or premiums (if any) at the time and place and at the rate and in the currency provided therein of any Bond without the express written consent of the Owner of such Bond, (b) reduce the percentage of Bonds required for the written consent to any such amendment or modification, or (c) without its written consent thereto, modify any of the rights or obligations of the Trustee. The Trustee shall be provided an opinion of Bond Counsel that any such Supplemental Indenture entered into by the Authority and the Trustee complies with the provisions of this Article VII and the Trustee may conclusively rely upon such opinion. Section 7.02 Effect of Supplemental Indenture. From and after the time any Supplemental Indenture becomes effective pursuant to this Article VII, this Indenture shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith, the respective rights, duties and obligations of the parties hereto or thereto and all Owners of Outstanding Bonds, as the case may be, shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modification and amendment, and all the terms and conditions of any Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. Section 7.03 Endorsement or Replacement of Bonds After Amendment. After the effective date of any action taken as hereinabove provided, the Authority may determine that the Bonds shall bear a notation, by endorsement in form approved by the Authority, as to such action, and in that case upon demand of the Owner of any Bond Outstanding at such effective date and presentation of his Bond for that purpose at the Trust Office of the Trustee, a suitable notation as to such action shall be made on such Bond. If the Authority shall so determine, new Bonds so modified as, in the opinion of the Authority, shall be necessary to conform to such Owners' action shall be prepared and executed, and in that case upon demand of the Owner of 76981111.1 38 Page 67 of 142 any Bond Outstanding at such effective date such new Bonds shall be exchanged at the Trust Office of the Trustee, without cost to each Owner, for Bonds then Outstanding, upon surrender of such Outstanding Bonds. Section 7.04 Amendment by Mutual Consent. The provisions of this Article VII shall not prevent any Owner from accepting any amendment as to the particular Bond held by him, provided that due notation thereof is made on such Bond. ARTICLE VIII EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND Section 8.01 Events of Default. The following events shall be Events of Default hereunder: (a) Default in the due and punctual payment of the principal of any Bond when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity as therein expressed, by proceedings for redemption, by acceleration or otherwise. (b) Default in the due and punctual payment of any installment of interest on any Bond when and as such interest installment shall become due and payable. (c) Failure by the Authority to observe and perform any of the covenants, agreements or conditions on its part in this Indenture or in the Bonds contained, other than as referred to in the preceding clauses (a) and (b), for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice, specifying such failure and requesting that it be remedied has been given to the Authority by the Trustee, or to the Authority and the Trustee by the Owners of the Bonds of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at that time outstanding; provided, however, that if in the reasonable opinion of the Authority the failure stated in such notice can be corrected, but not within such thirty (30) day period, such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default if corrective action is instituted by the Authority within such thirty (30) day period and diligently pursued until such failure is corrected. (d) The filing by the Authority of a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law of the United States of America, or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall approve a petition, filed with or without the consent of the Authority, seeking reorganization under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law of the United States of America, or if, under the provisions of any other law for the relief or aid of debtors, any court of competent jurisdiction shall assume custody or control of the Authority or of the whole or any substantial part of its property. Section 8.02 Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default shall occur, then, and in each and every such case during the continuance of such Event of Default, the Trustee may, and, at the written direction of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding, shall, upon notice in writing to the Authority and the Agency, declare the principal of all of the Bonds then Outstanding, and the interest accrued thereon, to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Bonds 76981111.1 39 Page 68 of 142 contained to the contrary notwithstanding. Notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default shall be given by the Trustee to the Owners if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.04 and indemnification is provided to the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.12 hereof. Any such declaration is subject to the condition that if, at any time after such declaration and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered, the Authority or the Agency shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all the principal of and installments of interest on the Bonds payment of which is overdue, with interest on such overdue principal at the rate borne by the Bonds to the extent permitted by law, and the charges and expenses of the Trustee and its counsel, and any and all other Events of Default known to the Trustee (other than in the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds due and payable solely by reason of such declaration) shall have been made good or cured to the satisfaction of the Trustee or provision deemed by the Trustee to be adequate shall have been made therefor, then, and in every such case, the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, by written notice to the Authority, the Agency and the Trustee, may, on behalf of the Owners of all of the Bonds, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and waive such Event of Default; but no such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Event of Default, or shall impair or exhaust any right or power consequent thereon. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest and premium (if any) on the Bonds, and to enforce any rights of the Trustee under or with respect to this Indenture. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and if requested so to do by the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Bonds, and indemnified as provided in Section 6.02(1), the Trustee shall be obligated to exercise such one or more of the rights and powers conferred by this Article VIII, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem most expedient in the interests of the Owners. No remedy by the terms of this Indenture conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee (or to the Owners) is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given to the Trustee or to the Owners hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or acquiescence therein; such right or power may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient. Section 8.03 Application of Revenues and Other Funds After Default. All amounts received by the Trustee pursuant to any right given or action taken by the Trustee under the provisions of this Indenture shall be applied by the Trustee in the following order upon presentation of the several Bonds, and the stamping thereon of the amount of the payment if only partially paid, or upon the surrender thereof if fully paid: 76981111.1 40 Page 69 of 142 First, to the payment of the fees, costs and expenses of the Trustee in declaring such Event of Default and in carrying out the provisions of this Article VIII, including reasonable compensation to its agents, attorneys and counsel and any outstanding fees and expenses of the Trustee; and Second, to the payment of the whole amount of interest on and principal of the Bonds then due and unpaid, with interest on overdue installments of principal and interest to the extent permitted by law at the net effective rate of interest then home by the Outstanding Bonds; provided, however, that in the event such amounts shall be insufficient to pay in full the full amount of such interest and principal, then such amounts shall be applied in the following order of priority: and unpaid, (a) first, to the payment of all installments of interest on the Bonds then due (b) second, to the payment of principal of all installments of the Bonds then due and unpaid, (c) third, to the payment of the redemption price (including principal and interest accrued to the redemption date, but excluding any premium) of the Bonds to be redeemed pursuant to this Indenture, and (d) fourth, to the payment of interest on overdue installments of principal and interest on the Bonds. Section 8.04 Power of Trustee to Control Proceedings. In the event that the Trustee, upon the happening of an Event of Default, shall have taken any action, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, pursuant to its duties hereunder, whether upon its own discretion or upon the request of the Owners of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, it shall have full power, in the exercise of its discretion for the best interests of the Owners of the Bonds, with respect to the continuance, discontinuance, withdrawal, compromise, settlement or other disposal of such action; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not, unless there no longer continues an Event of Default, discontinue, withdraw, compromise or settle, or otherwise dispose of any litigation pending at law or in equity, if at the time there has been filed with it a written request signed by the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds, opposing such discontinuance, withdrawal, compromise, settlement or other disposal of such litigation. Any suit, action or proceeding which any Owner of Bonds shall have the right to bring to enforce any right or remedy hereunder may be brought by the Trustee for the equal benefit and protection of all Owners of Bonds similarly situated and the Trustee is hereby appointed (and the successive respective Owners of the Bonds issued hereunder, by taking and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed so to have appointed it) the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the respective Owners of the Bonds for the purpose of bringing any such suit, action or proceeding and to do and perform any and all acts and things for and on behalf of the respective Owners of the Bonds as a class or classes, as may be necessary or advisable in the opinion of the Trustee as such attorney-in-fact. 76981111.1 41 Page 70 of 142 Section 8.05 Appointment of Receivers. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, and upon the filing of a suit or other commencement of judicial proceedings to enforce the rights of the Trustee and of the Owners under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of the Revenues and other amounts pledged hereunder, pending such proceedings, with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer. Section 8.06 Non-Waiver. Nothing in this Article VIII or in any other provision of this Indenture, or in the Bonds, shall affect or impair the obligation of the Authority, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the interest on and principal of the Bonds to the respective Owners of the Bonds at the respective dates of maturity, as herein provided, out of the Revenues and other moneys herein pledged for such payment. A waiver of any default or breach of duty or contract by the Trustee or any Owners shall not affect any subsequent default or breach of duty or contract, or impair any rights or remedies on any such subsequent default or breach. No delay or omission of the Trustee or any Owner of any of the Bonds to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default or breach shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or breach or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy conferred upon the Trustee or Owners by the Bond Law or by this Article VIII may be enforced and exercised from time to time and as often as shall be deemed expedient by the Trustee or the Owners, as the case may be. Section 8.07 Rights and Remedies of Owners. No Owner of any Bond issued hereunder shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, for any remedy under or upon this Indenture, unless (a) such Owner shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default; (b) the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all Bonds then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name; (c) said Owners shall have tendered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (d) the Trustee shall have refused or omitted to comply with such request for a period of sixty (60) days after such written request shall have been received by, and said tender of indemnity shall have been made to, the Trustee; and (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such sixty (60) day period by the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding. Such notification, request, tender of indemnity and refusal or omission are hereby declared, in every case, to be conditions precedent to the exercise by any Owner of Bonds of any remedy hereunder; it being understood and intended that no one or more Owners of Bonds shall have any right in any manner whatever by his or their action to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity to enforce any provision of this Indenture shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of all Owners of the Outstanding Bonds. The right of any Owner of any Bond to receive payment of the principal of and interest and premium (if any) on such Bond as herein provided or to institute suit for the enforcement of 76981111.1 42 Page 71 of 142 any such payment, shall not be impaired or affected without the written consent of such Owner, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section or any other provision of this Indenture. Section 8.08 Termination of Proceedings. In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture by the appointment of a receiver or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely, then and in every such case, the Authority, the Trustee and the Owners shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, with regard to the property subject to this Indenture, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken. ARTICLE IX MISCELLANEOUS Section 9.01 Limited Liability of Authority. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture contained, the Authority shall not be required to advance any moneys derived from any source of income other than the Revenues for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds, or any premiums upon the redemption thereof, or for the performance of any covenants herein contained (except to the extent any such covenants are expressly payable hereunder from the Revenues or otherwise from amounts payable under the Loan Agreement). The Authority may, however, advance funds for any such purpose, provided that such funds are derived from a source legally available for such purpose and may be used by the Authority for such purpose without incurring indebtedness. The Bonds shall be revenue bonds, payable exclusively from the Revenues and other funds as in this Indenture provided. The general fund of the Authority is not liable, and the credit of the Authority is not pledged, for the payment of the interest and premium (if any) on or principal of the Bonds. The Owners of the Bonds shall never have the right to compel the forfeiture of any property of the Authority. The principal of and interest on the Bonds, and any premiums upon the redemption of any thereof, shall not be a legal or equitable pledge, charge, lien or encumbrance upon any property of the Authority or upon any of its income, receipts or revenues except the Revenues and other funds pledged to the payment thereof as in this Indenture provided. Section 9.02 Benefits of Indenture Limited to Parties. Nothing in this Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended to give to any person other than the Authority, the Trustee, the Agency and the Owners of the Bonds, any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Indenture.

The Agency may issue its bonds, notes or other obligations on a panty with the Loan, subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement. The Bonds maturing on or after September 1, 2015, are subject to redemption on any date on or after September 1, 2014, as a whole or in part on a pro rata basis and by lot within a maturity, from prepayments of the Loan at the option of the Agency pursuant to the Loan Agreement, at the redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption, without premium.

If at the time of mailing of any notice of redemption from optional prepayments under the Loan Agreement there shall not have been deposited with the Trustee moneys sufficient to redeem all the Bonds called for redemption, such notice shall state that it is subject to the deposit 76981111.1 A-4 Page 81 of 142 of the redemption moneys with the Trustee not later than the opening of business on the redemption date and will be of no effect unless such moneys are so deposited. The Authority shall have the right to rescind redemption from optional prepayment under the Loan Agreement by written notice to the Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for redemption. Any notice of such redemption shall be cancelled and annulled if for any reason funds will not be or are not available on the date fixed for redemption for the payment in full of the Bonds then called for redemption, and such cancellation shall not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.

The Trustee shall mail notice of such rescission of redemption in the same manner as the original notice of redemption was sent.

Upon such transfer a new Bond or Bonds, of authorized denomination or denominations, for the same aggregate principal amount and of the same maturity will be issued to the transferee in exchange herefor. The Authority and the Trustee may treat the Registered Owner hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, and the Authority and the Trustee shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. The Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Authority and of the owners of the Bonds and of the Trustee may be modified or amended from time to time and at any time in the manner, to the extent, and upon the terms provided in the Indenture; provided that no such modification or amendment shall (a) extend the maturity of or reduce the interest rate on any Bond or otherwise alter or impair the obligation of the Authority to pay the principal, interest or redemption premiums at the time and place and at the rate and in the currency provided therein of any Bond without the express written consent of the owner of such Bond, (b) reduce the percentage of Bonds required for the written consent to any such amendment or modification, or (c) without its written consent thereto, modify any of the rights or obligations of the Trustee, all as more fully set forth in the Indenture. 76981111.1 A-5 Page 82 of 142 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Authority has caused this Bond to be executed in its name and on its behalf by the manual signatures of its Chairperson and Executive Director as of the Dated Date identified above.

The Agency will furnish a copy of such statements, upon reasonable request, to any Bond Owner. Section 4.05 Protection of Security and Rights. The Agency will preserve and protect the security of the Loan and the rights of the Trustee and the Bond Owners with respect to the Loan.

Section 4.06 Payments of Taxes and Other Charges. The Agency will pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, all taxes, service charges, assessments and other governmental charges which may hereafter be lawfully imposed upon the Agency or the properties then owned by the Agency in the Project Area, when the same shall become due.

The Agency will duly observe and comply with all valid requirements of any governmental authority relative to the Redevelopment Project or any part thereof. Section 4.07 Taxation of Leased Property. All ad valorem property taxes derived by the Agency pursuant to Section 33673 of the Redevelopment Law with respect to the lease of property for redevelopment shall be treated as Tax Revenues for all purposes of this Loan Agreement. 76981124.1 10 Page 130 of 142 Section 4.08 Disposition of Property. The Agency shall not, without the prior written consent of the Insurer, participate in the detachment or disposition of any land or real property in the Project Area which will result in such property becoming exempt from taxation because of public ownership or use or otherwise (except property dedicated for public right-of-way and except property planned for public ownership or use by the Redevelopment Plan in effect on the date of this Loan Agreement) if the effect of such detachment(s) or disposition(s) shall, when taken together with other such dispositions, in the aggregate exceed ten percent (10%) of the assessed value of property in the Project Area.

The Agency shall comply with all requirements of the Redevelopment Law to insure the allocation and payment to it of the Tax Revenues, including without limitation the timely filing of any necessary statements of indebtedness with appropriate officials of the County and (in the case of supplemental revenues and other amounts payable by the State) appropriate officials of the State. The Agency will not enter into any agreement with the City or any other governmental unit which would have the effect of reducing the amount of Tax Revenues available to the Agency for payment of the Loan.

Subject to the preceding sentences, nothing in this Loan Agreement is intended or shall be construed in any way to prohibit or impose any limitations on the entering into by the Agency of any such agreement, amendment or supplement which by its term is subordinate to the payment of the Loan, as provided in Section 2.06 hereof. Section 4.10 Payment of Expenses; Replenishment of Reserve Fund; Indemnification.

(a) Special Definitions. When used in this Section, the following terms have the following meanings: "Computation Date" has the meaning set forth in section 1.148-1(b) of the Tax Regulations. "Gross Proceeds" means any proceeds as defined in section 1.148-1(b) of the Tax Regulations (referring to sales, investment and transferred proceeds), and any replacement proceeds as defined in section 1.148-1(c) of the Tax Regulations, of the Bonds. "Investment" has the meaning set forth in section 1.148-1(b) of the Tax Regulations. "Nonpurpose Investment" means any investment property, as defined in section 148(b) of the Code, in which Gross Proceeds of the Bonds are invested and that is not acquired to carry out the governmental purposes of the Bonds. "Rebate Amount" has the meaning set forth in section 1.148-1(b) of the Tax Regulations. "Tax Regulations" means the United States Treasury Regulations promulgated pursuant to sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code, or section 103 of the 1954 Code, as applicable.

(b) Not to Cause interest to Become Taxable. Neither the Agency nor the Authority shall use, permit the use of, or omit to use Gross Proceeds or any other amounts (or any property the acquisition, construction or improvement of which is to be financed directly or indirectly with Gross Proceeds) in a manner that if made or omitted, respectively, could cause the interest on any Bond to fail to be excluded pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code from the gross income of the owner thereof for federal income tax purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Agency or the Authority receives a written opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that failure to comply with such covenant will not adversely affect such exclusion of the interest on any Bond from the gross income of the owner thereof for federal income tax purposes, the Agency and the Authority, respectively, shall comply with each of the specific covenants in this Section. (c) Private Use and Private Payments. Except as would not cause any Bond to become a "private activity bond" within the meaning of section 141 of the Code and the Tax Regulations, the Agency shall at all times prior to the final cancellation of the last of the Bonds to be retired: (i) exclusively own, operate and possess all property the acquisition, construction or improvement of which is to be financed or refinanced directly or indirectly with Gross Proceeds of the Bonds, and not use or permit the use of such Gross Proceeds (including through any contractual arrangement with terms different than those applicable to the general public) or any property acquired, constructed or improved with such Gross Proceeds in any 76981124.1 12 Page 132 of 142 activity carried on by any person or entity (including the United States of America or any agency, department and instrumentality thereof) other than a state or local government, unless such use is solely as a member of the general public; and (ii) not directly or indirectly impose or accept any charge or other payment by any person or entity (other than a State or local government) who is treated as using any Gross Proceeds of the Bonds or any property the acquisition, construction or improvement of which is to be financed or refinanced directly or indirectly with such Gross Proceeds, other than taxes of general application within its jurisdiction. (d) No Private Loan. Except as would not cause any Bond to become a "private activity bond" within the meaning of section 141 of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder, neither the Agency nor the Authority shall use Gross Proceeds of the Bonds to make or finance loans to any person or entity other than a state or local government. For purposes of the foregoing covenant, such Gross Proceeds are considered to be "loaned' to a person or entity if. (i) property acquired, constructed or improved with such Gross Proceeds is sold or leased to such person or entity in a transaction that creates a debt for federal income tax purposes; (ii) capacity in or service from such property is committed to such person or entity under a take-or-pay, output or similar contract or arrangement; or (iii) indirect benefits of such Gross Proceeds, or burdens and benefits of ownership of any property acquired, constructed or improved with such Gross Proceeds, are otherwise transferred in a transaction that is the economic equivalent of a loan. (e) Not to Invest at Higher Yield. Except as would not cause the Bonds to become "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of section 148 of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder, neither the Agency nor the Authority shall, at any time prior to the final cancellation of the last Bond to be retired, directly or indirectly invest Gross Proceeds in any Investment, if as a result of such investment the Yield of any Investment acquired with Gross Proceeds, whether then held or previously disposed of, would materially exceed the Yield of the Bonds within the meaning of said section 148. (f) Not Federally Guaranteed. Except to the extent permitted by section 149(b) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder, neither the Agency nor the Authority shall take or omit to take any action that would cause any Bond to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder. (g) Information Report. The Authority shall timely file any information required by section 149(e) of the Code with respect to Bonds with the Secretary of the Treasury on Form 8038-G or such other form and in such place as the Secretary may prescribe. (h) Rebate of Arbitrage Profits. Except to the extent otherwise provided in section 148(f) of the Code and the Tax Regulations, with respect to the Bonds: (i) The Agency and Authority, as the case may be, shall account for all Gross Proceeds (including all receipts, expenditures and investments thereof) on its books of account separately and apart from all other funds (and receipts, expenditures and investments thereof) and shall retain all records of accounting for at least six years after the day on which the last Bond of the series is discharged. However, to the extent permitted by law, each of the Agency and the Authority may commingle Gross Proceeds of Bonds with its other moneys, provided that it separately accounts for each receipt and expenditure of Gross Proceeds and the obligations acquired therewith. 76981124.1 13 Page 133 of 142 (ii) Not less frequently than each Computation Date, the Agency shall calculate the Rebate Amount in accordance with rules set forth in section 148(f) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder. The Agency promptly shall report to the Authority the results of such calculation, including the basis therefor, in sufficient detail and on a timely basis in order that the Authority be able to comply with its covenants herein. The Authority shall maintain a copy of the calculation with its official transcript of proceedings relating to the issuance of the Bonds until six years after the final Computation Date. (iii) In order to assure the excludability, pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code of the interest on the Bonds from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes, the Agency shall pay to the Trustee for deposit into the Rebate Account established pursuant to the hidenture an amount sufficient to permit the Authority timely to pay to the United States of America the amount that when added to the future value of previous rebate payments made for the Bonds equals (A) in the case of the Final Computation Date as defined in section 1.148-3(e)(2) of the Tax Regulations, one hundred percent (100%) of the Rebate Amount on such date; and (B) in the case of any other Computation Date, ninety percent (90%) of the Rebate Amount on such date. In all cases, such rebate payments shall be made by the Authority at the times and in the amounts as are or may be required by section 148(f) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder, and shall be accompanied by Form 8038-T or such other forms and information as is or may be required by section 148(f) of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder for execution and filing by the Authority. (iv) The Agency shall exercise reasonable diligence to assure that no errors are made in the calculations and payments required by paragraphs (b) and (c), and if an error is made, to discover, report to the Authority and promptly correct such error within a reasonable amount of time thereafter (and in all events within one hundred eighty (180) days after discovery of the error), including payment to the United States of America of any additional Rebate Amount owed to it, interest thereon, and any penalty imposed under section 1.148-3(h) or other provision of the Tax Regulations. (i) Not to Divert Arbitrage Profits. Except to the extent permitted by section 148 of the Code and the Tax Regulations and rulings thereunder, neither the Agency nor the Authority shall, at any time prior to the final cancellation of the last of the Bonds to be retired, enter into any transaction that reduces the amount required to be paid to the United States of America pursuant to paragraph (h) of this Section because such transaction results in a smaller profit or a larger loss than would have resulted if the transaction had been at arm's length and had the Yields on the Bonds not been relevant to either party. 0) Bonds Not Hedge Bonds. (i) Each of the Authority and the Agency represents that none of the Bonds is or will become a "hedge bond" within the meaning of section 149(g) of the Code. (ii) Without limitation of paragraph (i) above: each of the Authority and the Agency believe (upon appropriate investigation) (A) that on the date of issuance of the Bonds the Authority and the Agency reasonably expected that at least 85% of the spendable proceeds of the Bonds will be expended within the three-year period commencing on such date of issuance, and (B) no more than 50% of the proceeds of the Bonds will be invested in Nonpurpose Investments having a substantially guaranteed yield for a period of four years or more. (k) Elections. The Agency hereby directs and authorizes any Authority Representative to make elections permitted or required pursuant to the provisions of the Code or the Tax 76981124.1 14 Page 134 of 142 Regulations, as such Representative (after consultation with Bond Counsel) deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the Bonds, in the Certificate as to Tax Exemption or similar or other appropriate certificate, form or document. (1) Closing Certificate. Each of the Agency and the Authority agrees to execute and deliver in connection with the issuance of the Bonds a Tax Certificate as to Arbitrage and the Provisions of Sections 103 and 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or similar document containing additional representations and covenants pertaining to the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes, which representations and covenants are incorporated as though expressly set forth herein. Section 4.12 Continuing Disclosure. The Agency hereby covenants and agrees that it will comply with and carry out all of the provisions of its Undertaking To Provide Continuing Disclosure with respect to the Bonds, as originally executed and as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof. All information furnished pursuant to such Undertaking To Provide Continuing Disclosure shall also be provided to the Insurer, simultaneously with the furnishing of such information. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Agreement, failure of the Agency to comply with such Undertaking to Provide Continuing Disclosure shall not be considered an Event of Default; however, any Owner may take such actions, as provided in such Undertaking to Provide Continuing Disclosure, as may be necessary and appropriate to cause the Agency to comply with its obligations under such Undertaking To Provide Continuing Disclosure. Section 4.13 Redevelopment of Project Area. The Agency shall ensure that all activities undertaken by the Agency with respect to the redevelopment of the Project Area are undertaken and accomplished in conformity with all applicable requirements of the Redevelopment Plan and the Redevelopment Law.

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee may (a) declare the principal of the Loan, together with accrued interest on all unpaid installments thereof, to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same will become immediately due and payable, anything in this Loan Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, and (b) subject to receipt of satisfactory indemnity, exercise any other remedies available to the Trustee in law or equity arising hereunder. hnmediately upon becoming aware of the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Loan Agreement, the Trustee shall give notice of such Event of Default to the Agency by telephone, telecopier or other telecommunication device, promptly confirmed in writing. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Loan has been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due has been obtained or entered, the Agency will deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all installments of principal of the Loan matured prior to such declaration and all accrued interest thereon, with interest on such overdue installments of principal and interest at the net effective rate then borne by the Outstanding Bonds, and the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee, and any and all other defaults known to the Trustee (other than in the payment of principal of and interest on the Loan due and payable solely by reason of such declaration) shall have been made good or cured to the satisfaction of the Trustee or provision deemed by the Trustee to be adequate shall have been made therefor, then, and in every such case, the Trustee may, by written notice to the Authority and the Agency, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences. However, no such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair or exhaust the right or power consequent thereon. 76981124.1 16 Page 136 of 142 Section 5.02 Application of Revenues and Other Funds After Default.

A waiver of any default by the Trustee at the direction of the Owners of the Bonds pursuant to Section 5.01 shall not affect any subsequent default or impair any rights or remedies on the subsequent default. No delay or omission of the Trustee to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein, and every power and remedy conferred upon the Trustee by the Redevelopment Law or by this Article V may be enforced and exercised from time to time and as often as shall be deemed expedient by the Trustee. 76981124.1 17 Page 137 of 142 If a suit, action or proceeding to enforce any right or exercise any remedy shall be abandoned or determined adversely to the Trustee, the Agency and the Trustee shall be restored to their former positions, rights and remedies as if such suit, action or proceeding had not been brought or taken. Section 5.04 Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy.
