Agent/Registrar upon not less than 120 days written notice to the Paying Agent/Registrar, to be
effective not later than 60 days prior to the next principal or interest payment date after such notice.
In the event that the entity at any time acting as Paying Agent/Registrar(or its successor by merger,

that promptly it will appoint a competent and legally qualified bank, trust company, financial
institution, or other agency to act as Paying Agent/Registrar under this Ordinance. Upon any

notice thereof to be sent by the new Paying Agent/Registrar to each Registered Owner of the
Certificates, by United States mail, first-class postage prepaid, which notice also shall give the

each Paying Agent/Registrar shall be deemed to have agreed to the provisions of this Ordinance,
and a certified copy of this Ordinance shall be delivered to each Paying Agent/Registrar.
(f) Except as provided below, no Certificate shall be valid or obligatory for any
purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit of this Ordinance unless and until there appears
thereon the Certificate of Paying Agent/Registrar substantially in the form provided in this
Ordinance, duly authenticated by manual execution of the Paying Agent/Registrar. It shall not be
required that the same authorized representative of the Paying Agent/Registrar sign the Certificate
of Paying Agent/Registrar on all of the Certificates. In lieu of the executed Certificate of Paying
Agent/Registrar described above, the initial Certificate delivered on the Delivery Date (as shown
in the FORM OF CERTIFICATE) shall have attached thereto the Comptroller's Registration
Certificate substantially in the form provided in this Ordinance, manually executed by the
Comptroller or by his duly authorized agent, which certificate shall be evidence that the initial
4
Certificate has been duly approved by the Attorney General and that it is a valid and binding
obligation of the City, and has been registered by the Comptroller.
(g) Book-Entry-Only System. The Certificates issued in exchange for the Certificate
initially issued to the Purchaser or its designee shall be initially issued in the form of a separate
single fully registered Certificate for each of the maturities thereof. Upon initial issuance, the
ownership of each such Certificate shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of
The Depository Trust Conipany, New York, New York ("DTC"), and except as provided in
subsection(f) hereof, all of the outstanding Certificates shall be registered in the name of Cede &
Co., as nominee of DTC. With respect to Certificates registered in the name of Cede & Co., as
nominee of DTC, the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall have no responsibility or
obligation to any securities brokers and dealers, banks,trust companies, clearing corporations and
certain other organizations on whose behalf DTC was created ("DTC Participant") to hold
securities to facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions among DTC
Participants or to any person on behalf of whom such a DTC Participant holds an interest in the
Certificates. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the City and the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the
records of DTC, Cede& Co. or any DTC Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the
Certificates, (ii) the delivery to any DTC Participant or any other person, other than a Registered
Owner of Certificates, as shown on the Registration Books, of any notice with respect to the
Certificates, or (iii) the payment to any DTC Participant or any other person, other than a
Registered Owner of Certificates, as shown in the Registration Books of any amount with respect
to principal of or interest on the Certificates. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Ordinance to the contrary, the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be entitled to treat and
consider the person in whose name each Certificate is registered in the Registration Books as the
absolute owner of such Certificate for the purpose of payment of principal and interest with respect
to such Certificate,for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Certificate,and for
all other purposes whatsoever. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall pay all principal of and interest
on the Certificates only to or upon the order of the Registered Owners,as shown in the Registration
Books as provided in this Ordinance, or their respective attorneys duly authorized in writing, and
all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations
with respect to payment of principal of and interest on the Certificates to the extent of the sum or
sums so paid. No person other than a Registered Owner,as shown in the Registration Books,shall
receive a Certificate evidencing the obligation of the City to make payments of principal and
interest pursuant to this Ordinance. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent/Registrar of
written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede
& Co., and subject to the provisions in this Ordinance with respect to interest checks being mailed
to the Registered Owner at the close of business on the Record Date, the words "Cede & Co." in
this Ordinance shall refer to such new nominee of DTC. The previous execution and delivery of
the Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations with respect to obligations of the City is hereby
ratified and confirmed; and the provisions thereof shall be fully applicable to the Certificates.
(h) Successor Securities Depository; Transfers Outside Book-Entry-Only System. In
the event that the City determines that DTC is incapable of discharging its responsibilities
described herein and in the representations letter of the City to DTC or that it is in the best interest
of the beneficial owners of the Certificates that they be able to obtain certificated Certificates,the
City shall (i) appoint a successor securities depository, qualified to act as such under Section 17A
of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934,as amended,notify DTC and DTC Participants of the
5
appointment of such successor securities depository and transfer one or more separate Certificates
to such successor securities depository or(ii) notify DTC and DTC Participants of the availability
through DTC of Certificates and transfer one or more separate certificated Certificates to DTC
Participants having Certificates credited to their DTC accounts. In such event, the Certificates
shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the Registration Books in the name of Cede &
Co., as nominee of DTC, but may be registered in the name of the successor securities depository,
or its nominee, or in whatever name or names Registered Owners transferring or exchanging
Certificates shall designate, in accordance with the provisions of this Ordinance.
(i) Payments to Cede&Co. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance to
the contrary, so long as any Certificate is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of
DTC,all payments with respect to principal of and interest on such Certificate and all notices with
respect to such Certificate shall be made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the
representations letter of the City to DTC.
(j) Cancellation of Initial Certificate. On the Delivery Date, one initial Certificate
representing the entire principal amount of the Certificates, payable in stated installments to the
Purchaser or its designee, executed by manual or facsimile signature of the Mayor or Mayor Pro
Tern and City Secretary of the City, approved by the Attorney General, and registered and signed
by the Comptroller in the manner prescribed by law, will be delivered to the Purchaser or its
designee. Upon payment for the initial Certificate, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall cancel the
initial Certificate and deliver to DTC on behalf of the Purchaser one registered definitive
Certificate for each year of maturity of the Certificates, in the aggregate principal amount of all of
the Certificates for such maturity.
(k) Conditional Notice of Redemption. With respect to any optional redemption of the
Certificates,unless certain prerequisites to such redemption required by this Ordinance have been
met and money sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the
Certificates to be redeemed will have been received by the Paying Agent/Registrar prior to the
giving of such notice of redemption, such notice may state that said redemption may,at the option
of the City, be conditional upon the satisfaction of such prerequisites and receipt of such money
by the Paying Agent/Registrar on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption or upon any
prerequisite set forth in such notice of redemption. If a conditional notice of redemption is given
and such prerequisites to the redemption are not fulfilled,such notice will be of no force and effect,
the City will not redeem such Certificates, and the Paying Agent/Registrar will give notice in the
manner in which the notice of redemption was given, to the effect that such Certificates have not
been redeemed.
Section 4. FORM OF CERTIFICATES. The form of the Certificates, including the form
of Paying Agent/Registrar's Authentication Certificate, the form of Assignment and the form of
Registration Certificate of the Comptroller of Public Accounts of the State of Texas to be attached
to the Certificates initially issued and delivered pursuant to this Ordinance, shall be substantially
in the form provided in Exhibit A,with such appropriate variations, omissions or insertions as are
permitted or required by this Ordinance.
6
Section 5. INTEREST AND SINKING FUND; LIMITED SURPLUS REVENUES.
(a) A special "Interest and Sinking Fund" is hereby created and shall be established
and maintained by the City at an official depository bank of said City. Said Interest and Sinking
Fund shall be kept separate and apart from all other funds and accounts of said City, and shall be
used only for paying the interest on and principal of said Certificates. All amounts received from
the sale of the Certificates as accrued interest shall be deposited upon receipt to the Interest and
Sinking Fund,and all ad valorem taxes levied and collected for and on account of said Certificates
shall be deposited, as collected, to the credit of said Interest and Sinking Fund. During each year
while any of said Certificates are outstanding and unpaid, the governing body of said City shall
compute and ascertain a rate and amount of ad valorem tax that will be sufficient to raise and
produce the money required to pay the interest on said Certificates as such interest comes due,and
to provide and maintain a sinking fund adequate to pay the principal of said Certificates as such
principal matures (but never less than 2% of the original amount of said Certificates as a sinking
fund each year); and said tax shall be based on the latest approved tax rolls of said City, with full
allowances being made for tax delinquencies and the cost of tax collection. Said rate and amount
of ad valorem tax is hereby levied, and is hereby ordered to be levied, against all taxable property
in said City, for each year while any of said Certificates are outstanding and unpaid, and said tax
shall be assessed and collected each such year and deposited to the credit of the aforesaid Interest
and Sinking Fund. Said ad valorem taxes sufficient to provide for the payment of the interest on
and principal of said Certificates,as such interest comes due and such principal matures,are hereby
pledged for such payment,within the limits prescribed by law.
(b) The Certificates are additionally secured by a limited pledge of $1,000 of the
revenues of the System that remain after the payment of all maintenance and operation expenses
thereof, and all debt service, reserve and other requirements in connection with all of the City's
revenue obligations (now or hereafter outstanding) that are secured by a lien on all or any part of
the net revenues of the System, constituting "Surplus Revenues". The City shall deposit such
Surplus Revenues to the credit of the Interest and Sinking Fund created pursuant to this Section,
to the extent necessary to pay the principal and interest on the Certificates. Notwithstanding the
requirements of this Section, if revenues are actually on deposit or budgeted for deposit in the
Interest and Sinking Fund in advance of the time when ad valorem taxes are scheduled to be levied
for any year, then the amount of taxes which otherwise would have been required to be levied
pursuant to this Section may be reduced to the extent and by the amount of the revenues then on
deposit in the Interest and Sinking Fund or budgeted for deposit therein. The City reserves the
right, without condition or limitation, to issue other obligations secured in whole or in part by a
parity lien on and pledge of the Surplus Revenues, for any purpose permitted by law.
(c) Chapter 1208,Government Code,applies to the issuance of the Certificates and the
pledge of the taxes and limited Surplus Revenues granted by the City hereunder, and is therefore
valid,effective and perfected. Should State law be amended at any time while the Certificates are
outstanding and unpaid,the result of such amendment being that the pledge of the taxes and limited
Surplus Revenues granted by the City hereunder is to be subject to the filing requirements of
Chapter 9, Business and Coppell Code, in order to preserve to the registered owners of the
Certificates a security interest in said pledge,the City agrees to take such measures as it determines
are reasonable and necessary under State law to comply with the applicable provisions of Chapter
9,Business and Coppell Code and enable a filing of a security interest in said pledge to occur.

Section 6. DEFEASANCE OF CERTIFICATES.
(a) Any Certificate and the interest thereon shall be deemed to be paid, retired and no
longer outstanding (a "Defeased Certificate")within the meaning of this Ordinance, except to the
extent provided in subsection(d)of this Section,when payment of the principal of such Certificate,
plus interest thereon to the due date (whether such due date be by reason of maturity or otherwise)
either(i) shall have been made or caused to be made in accordance with the terms thereof, or(ii)
shall have been provided for on or before such due date by irrevocably depositing with or making
available to the Paying Agent/Registrar in accordance with an escrow agreement or other
instrument (the "Future Escrow Agreement") for such payment (1) lawful money of the United
States of America sufficient to make such payment or(2) Defeasance Securities that mature as to
principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as will insure the availability, without
reinvestment, of sufficient money to provide for such payment, and when proper arrangements
have been made by the City with the Paying Agent/Registrar for the payment of its services until
all Defeased Certificates shall have become due and payable. At such time as a Certificate shall
be deemed to be a Defeased Certificate hereunder, as aforesaid, such Certificate and the interest
thereon shall no longer be secured by, payable from, or entitled to the benefits of,the ad valorem
taxes herein levied and pledged or the limited pledge of Surplus Revenues as provided in this
Ordinance,and such principal and interest shall be payable solely from such money or Defeasance
Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance to the contrary, it is hereby
provided that any determination not to redeem Defeased Certificates that is made in conjunction
with the payment arrangements specified in subsection 6(a)(i) or (ii) shall not be irrevocable,
provided that: (1) in the proceedings providing for such payment arrangements,the City expressly
reserves the right to call the Defeased Certificates for redemption; (2) gives notice of the
reservation of that right to the owners of the Defeased Certificates immediately following the
making of the payment arrangements; and (3) directs that notice of the reservation be included in
any redemption notices that it authorizes.
(b) Any moneys so deposited with the Paying Agent/Registrar may at the written
direction of the City be invested in Defeasance Securities, maturing in the amounts and times as
hereinbefore set forth, and all income from such Defeasance Securities received by the Paying
Agent/Registrar that is not required for the payment of the Certificates and interest thereon, with
respect to which such money has been so deposited, shall be turned over to the City, or deposited
as directed in writing by the City. Any Future Escrow Agreement pursuant to which the money
and/or Defeasance Securities are held for the payment of Defeased Certificates may contain
provisions permitting the investment or reinvestment of such moneys in Defeasance Securities or
the substitution of other Defeasance Securities upon the satisfaction of the requirements specified
in subsection 6(a)(i) or (ii). All income from such Defeasance Securities received by the Paying
Agent/Registrar which is not required for the payment of the Defeased Certificates, with respect
to which such money has been so deposited, shall be remitted to the City or deposited as directed
in writing by the City.
(c) The term "Defeasance Securities" means any securities and obligations now or
hereafter authorized by State law that are eligible to refund, retire or otherwise discharge
obligations such as the Certificates.
(d) Until all Defeased Certificates shall have become due and payable, the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall perform the services of Paying Agent/Registrar for such Defeased
8
Certificates the same as if they had not been defeased,and the City shall make proper arrangements
to provide and pay for such services as required by this Ordinance.
(e) In the event that the City elects to defease less than all of the principal amount of
Certificates of a maturity, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall select, or cause to be selected, such
amount of Certificates by such random method as it deems fair and appropriate.
Section 7. DAMAGED, MUTILATED, LOST, STOLEN, OR DESTROYED
CERTIFICATES.
(a) Replacement Certificates. In the event any outstanding Certificate is damaged,
mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed,the Paying Agent/Registrar shall cause to be printed, executed
and delivered, a new certificate of the same principal amount, maturity and interest rate, as the
damaged,mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, in replacement for such Certificate in the
manner hereinafter provided.
(b) Application for Replacement Certificates. Application for replacement of
damaged, mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates shall be made by the registered owner
thereof to the Paying Agent/Registrar. In every case of loss, theft or destruction of a Certificate,
the registered owner applying for a replacement certificate shall furnish to the City and to the
Paying Agent/Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of
them harmless from any loss or damage with respect thereto. Also, in every case of loss, theft or
destruction of a Certificate, the registered owner shall furnish to the City and to the Paying
Agent/Registrar evidence to their satisfaction of the loss, theft or destruction of such Certificate,
as the case may be. In every case of damage or mutilation of a Certificate, the registered owner
shall surrender to the Paying Agent/Registrar for cancellation the Certificate so damaged or
mutilated.
(c) No Default Occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Ordinance,
in the event any such Certificate shall have matured, and no default has occurred that is then
continuing in the payment of the principal of, redemption premium, if any, or interest on the
Certificate, the City may authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in
the case of a damaged or mutilated Certificate) instead of issuing a replacement Certificate,
provided security or indemnity is furnished as above provided in this Section.
(d) Charge for Issuing Replacement Certificates. Prior to the issuance of any
replacement certificate, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall charge the registered owner of such
Certificate with all legal,printing,and other expenses in connection therewith. Every replacement
certificate issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section by virtue of the fact that any Certificate
is lost, stolen or destroyed shall constitute a contractual obligation of the City whether or not the
lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and
shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Ordinance equally and proportionately with any and all
other Certificates duly issued under this Ordinance.
(e) Authority for Issuing Replacement Certificates. In accordance with Section

Section 9. COVENANTS REGARDING TAX EXEMPTION OF INTEREST ON THE

(a) Covenants. The City covenants to take any action necessary to assure, or refrain
from any action which would adversely affect, the treatment of the Certificates as obligations
described in section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the
interest on which is not includable in the "gross income" of the holder for purposes of federal
income taxation. In furtherance thereof,the City covenants as follows:
(1) to take any action to assure that no more than 10 percent of the proceeds of
the Certificates or the projects financed therewith(less amounts deposited to a reserve fund,
if any)are used for any "private business use," as defined in section 141(b)(6)of the Code
or, if more than 10 percent of the proceeds or the projects financed therewith are so used,
such amounts, whether or not received by the City, with respect to such private business
use, do not, under the terms of this Ordinance or any underlying arrangement, directly or
indirectly, secure or provide for the payment of more than 10 percent of the debt service
on the Certificates, in contravention of section 141(b)(2)of the Code;
(2) to take any action to assure that in the event that the "private business use"
described in subsection (1) hereof exceeds 5 percent of the proceeds of the Certificates or
10
a
the projects financed therewith(less amounts deposited into a reserve fund,if any)then the
amount in excess of 5 percent is used for a "private business use" which is "related" and
not "disproportionate," within the meaning of section 141(b)(3) of the Code, to the
governmental use;
(3) to take any action to assure that no amount which is greater than the lesser
of$5,000,000,or 5 percent of the proceeds of the Certificates(less amounts deposited into
a reserve fund, if any) is directly or indirectly used to finance loans to persons, other than
state or local governmental units, in contravention of section 141(c) of the Code;
(4) to refrain from taking any action which would otherwise result in the
Certificates being treated as "private activity bonds" within the meaning of section 141(b)
of the Code;
(5) to refrain from taking any action that would result in the Certificates being
"federally guaranteed" within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code;
(6) to refrain from using any portion of the proceeds of the Certificates,directly
or indirectly, to acquire or to replace funds which were used, directly or indirectly, to
acquire investment property (as defined in section 148(b)(2) of the Code) which produces
a materially higher yield over the term of the Certificates, other than investment property
acquired with—
(A) proceeds of the Certificates invested for a reasonable temporary
period of 3 years or less or, in the case of a refunding bond, for a period of 90 days
or less until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the bonds are
issued,
(B) amounts invested in a bona fide debt service fund, within the
meaning of section 1.148 1(b) of the Treasury Regulations, and
(C) amounts deposited in any reasonably required reserve or
replacement fund to the extent such amounts do not exceed 10 percent of the
proceeds of the Certificates;
(7) to otherwise restrict the use of the proceeds of the Certificates or amounts
treated as proceeds of the Certificates, as may be necessary, so that the Certificates do not
otherwise contravene the requirements of section 148 of the Code(relating to arbitrage);
(8) to refrain from using the proceeds of the Certificates or proceeds of any
prior bonds to pay debt service on another issue more than 90 days after the date of issue
of the Certificates in contravention of the requirements of section 149(d) of the Code
(relating to advance refundings); and
(9) to pay to the United States of America at least once during each five-year
period (beginning on the Delivery Date) an amount that is at least equal to 90 percent of
the "Excess Earnings," within the meaning of section 148(f) of the Code and to pay to the
11
United States of America, not later than 60 days after the Certificates have been paid in
full, 100 percent of the amount then required to be paid as a result of Excess Earnings under
section 148(f) of the Code.
(b) Rebate Fund. In order to facilitate compliance with the above covenant (8), a
"Rebate Fund" is hereby established by the City for the sole benefit of the United States of
America, and such fund shall not be subject to the claim of any other person, including without
limitation the bondholders. The Rebate Fund is established for the additional purpose of
compliance with section 148 of the Code.
(c) Use of Proceeds. The City understands that the term "proceeds" includes
"disposition proceeds" as defined in the Treasury Regulations and, in the case of refunding bonds,
transferred proceeds (if any) and proceeds of the refunded bonds expended prior to the date of
issuance of the Certificates. It is the understanding of the City that the covenants contained herein
are intended to assure compliance with the Code and any regulations or rulings promulgated by
the U.S. Department of the Treasury pursuant thereto. In the event that regulations or rulings are
hereafter promulgated which modify or expand provisions of the Code, as applicable to the
Certificates, the City will not be required to comply with any covenant contained herein to the
extent that such failure to comply, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel, will not
adversely affect the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Certificates under
section 103 of the Code. In the event that regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated which
impose additional requirements which are applicable to the Certificates,the City agrees to comply
with the additional requirements to the extent necessary, in the opinion of nationally recognized
bond counsel, to preserve the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the
Certificates under section 103 of the Code. In furtherance of such intention, the City hereby
authorizes and directs the Mayor,the Mayor Pro Tem,the City Manager,the Director of Strategic
Financial Engagement and the City Secretary (collectively,the "Authorized Officers") to execute
any documents, certificates or reports required by the Code and to make such elections, on behalf
of the City,which may be permitted by the Code as are consistent with the purpose for the issuance
of the Certificates.
(d) Allocation of,and Limitation on,Expenditures for the Projects. The City covenants
to account for the expenditure of sale proceeds and investment earnings to be used for the Projects
on its books and records in accordance with the requirements of the Code. The City recognizes
that in order for the proceeds to be considered used for the reimbursement of costs, the proceeds
must be allocated to expenditures within 18 months of the later of the date that(1)the expenditure
is made, or(2) the Projects are completed; but in no event later than three years after the date on
which the original expenditure is paid. The foregoing notwithstanding,the City recognizes that in
order for proceeds to be expended under the Code,the sale proceeds or investment earnings must
be expended no more than 60 days after the earlier of(1)the fifth anniversary of the Delivery Date,
or (2) the date the Certificates are retired. The City agrees to obtain the advice of nationally-
recognized bond counsel if such expenditure fails to comply with the foregoing to assure that such
expenditure will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Certificates. For purposes hereof,
the City shall not be obligated to comply with this covenant if it obtains an opinion that such failure
to comply will not adversely affect the excludability for federal income tax purposes from gross
income of the interest.
12
(e) Disposition of the Projects. The City covenants that the property constituting the
Projects will not be sold or otherwise disposed in a transaction resulting in the receipt by the City
of cash or other compensation, unless any action taken in connection with such disposition will
not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Certificates. For purpose of the foregoing, the
City may rely on an opinion of nationally-recognized bond counsel that the action taken in
connection with such sale or other disposition will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of
the Certificates. For purposes of the foregoing, the portion of the property comprising personal
property and disposed in the ordinary course shall not be treated as a transaction resulting in the
receipt of cash or other compensation. For purposes hereof, the City shall not be obligated to
comply with this covenant if it obtains an opinion that such failure to comply will not adversely
affect the excludability for federal income tax purposes from gross income of the interest.
