Section 5. Registration of Bonds; Persons Treated as Owners. The City shall cause books (the "Bond Register") for the registration and for the transfer of the Bonds as provided in -5- this Resolution to be kept at the principal corporate trust office of the Registrar, which is hereby constituted and appointed the registrar of the City with respect to the Bonds herein authorized. Upon surrender for transfer of any Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the Registrar duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by, the registered owner thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, the City shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate, date and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new fully registered Bond or Bonds of the same maturity and interest rate of authorized denomination or denominations, for a like aggregate principal amount. Any fully registered Bond or Bonds may be exchanged at said office of the Registrar for a like aggregate principal amount of Bond or Bonds of the same maturity and interest rate of other authorized denomination or denominations. The execution by the City of any fully registered Bond shall constitute full and due authorization of such Bond, and the Registrar shall thereby be authorized to authenticate, date and deliver such Bond; provided, however, that the principal amount of the outstanding Bonds authenticated by the Registrar shall never exceed the authorized principal amount of the Bonds, less previous retirements. The Registrar may, but shall not be required to, transfer or exchange any Bond during the period of fifteen (15) days next preceding any interest payment date on such Bond, nor to transfer or exchange any Bond after notice calling such Bond for redemption prior to maturity has been mailed nor during the period of fifteen (15) days next preceding mailing of a notice of redemption of any Bonds. The person in whose name any Bond shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest on any Bond shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered owner thereof or his legal representative. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. The Registrar shall never register any Bond to bearer. No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Bonds, but the City or the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Bonds, except in the case of the issuance of a Bond or Bonds for the unredeemed portion of a Bond surrendered for redemption. The City and/or the Registrar may enter into an agreement with a securities depository registered under Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Securities Depository"), including without limitation The Depository Trust Company, which is the record owner of the Bonds, to establish procedures with respect to Bonds owned by such Securities Depository. Such agreement may impose additional requirements on the Registrar with respect to the Bonds. -6- Section 6. Prior Redemption. The Bonds maturing on and after December 1, 2012, shall be subject to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the City, as a whole or in part in such order as the City may determine (less than all of the Bonds of a single maturity to be selected by the Registrar as hereinafter provided), on December 1, 2011, and on any date thereafter, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount thereof being redeemed plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption. The Bonds shall be redeemed only in the principal amount of $5,000 each and integral multiples thereof. At least forty-five (45) days prior to the date fixed for redemption (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Registrar), the City shall notify the Registrar of such date fixed for redemption and of the order and the principal amount of Bonds to be redeemed. For purposes of any redemption of less than all of the outstanding Bonds of a single maturity, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the Registrar from the outstanding Bonds of such maturity then outstanding by such method as the Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate, and which may provide for the selection for redemption of Bonds or portions of Bonds in principal amounts of $5,000 and integral multiples thereof. The Registrar shall promptly notify the City in writing of the Bonds or portions of Bonds selected for redemption prior to maturity and, in the case of any Bond selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Section 7. Redemption Procedure. Unless waived by any registered owner of Bonds (or portions thereof) to be redeemed, notice of the call for any such redemption prior to maturity shall be given by the Registrar on behalf of the City by mailing the redemption notice by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the registered owner of the Bond or Bonds to be so redeemed at the address shown on the Bond Register or at such other address as is furnished in writing by such registered owner to the Registrar. Failure to give such notice by mailing to any owner of any Bond, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the redemption of any other Bonds. All notices of redemption shall state: (1) the date fixed for redemption, (2) the redemption price, (3) if less than all outstanding Bonds are to be redeemed, the identification, including CUSIP numbers (and, in the case of partial redemption, the respective principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed, (4) that on the date fixed for redemption the redemption price will become due and payable upon each such Bond or portion thereof called for redemption, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date, and -7- (5) the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price, which place of payment shall be the principal corporate trust office of the Registrar. Prior to any date fixed for redemption, the City shall deposit with the Registrar an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of all the Bonds or portions of Bonds which are to be redeemed on that date. With respect to an optional redemption of any Bonds, unless moneys sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds to be redeemed shall have been received by the Registrar prior to the giving of such notice of redemption, such notice may, at the option of the City, state that said redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt of such moneys by the Registrar on or prior to the date fixed for redemption. If such moneys are not received, such notice shall be of no force and effect, the City shall not redeem such Bonds and the Registrar shall give notice, in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received and that such Bonds will not be redeemed. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed shall, on the date fixed for redemption, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the City shall default in the payment of the redemption price) such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Bonds shall be paid by the Registrar at the redemption price. Installments of interest due on or prior to the date fixed for redemption shall be payable as herein provided for the payment of interest. Upon surrender for any partial redemption of any Bond, there shall be prepared for the registered owner a new Bond or Bonds of the same maturity and interest rate in the amount of the unpaid principal. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Registrar, and shall not be reissued. In addition to the redemption notice required above, further notice of redemption (the "Additional Redemption Notice") shall be given by the Registrar as set forth below, but no defect in the Additional Redemption Notice nor any failure to give all or any portion of the Additional Redemption Notice shall in any manner affect the effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given as prescribed above. Each Additional Redemption Notice given hereunder shall contain the information required above, plus (i) the date such notice required above has been or will be mailed; (ii) the date of issuance of the Bonds being redeemed, as originally issued; (iii) the maturity date of each Bond (or portion thereof) to be redeemed; and (iv) any other descriptive information needed to identify accurately the Bonds being redeemed prior to maturity. Each Additional Redemption Notice shall be sent at least thirty (30) days before the date fixed for redemption by legible facsimile transmission, registered or certified mail (postage prepaid) or overnight delivery service to The Depository Trust Company of New York, New York, and to at least two (2) national information services that disseminate notices of redemption of obligations such as the Bonds. -8- Section 8.
