the proceeds of the Series 2017 Bond or any other funds of the Borrower in respect of the 2017
Project or the Series 2017 Bond, directly or indirectly, in a manner that would cause, or take s

Fund. The DNRC shall not be required to do "overmatching" pursuant to Section 5.04(b) of
the Indenture, but may do so in its discretion. The Borrower acknowledges that if 2017 Project
costs are incurred faster than the Borrower projected at Closing, there may be delays in making

or any proceeds of the 2017 Loan borrowed for the purpose of increasing the balance in the
Reserve Account to the Reserve Requirement. The Borrower further acknowledges and agrees
that any portion of the 2017 Loan representing capitalized interest shall be advanced only on
Payment Dates and shall be transferred by the Trustee on the Payment Date directly to the

the date of transfer.
(i) Compliance by the Borrower with its representations, covenants and agreements
contained in the Original Resolution, this Supplemental Resolution and the Collateral
Documents shall be a further condition precedent to the disbursement of the Loan in whole or
in part. The DNRC and the Trustee, in their sole and absolute discretion, may make one or
more disbursements, in whole or in part, notwithstanding such noncompliance, and without
liability to make any subsequent disbursement of the Loan.
Section 4.2 Commencement of Loan Term. The Borrower's obligations under this
Supplemental Resolution and the Collateral Documents shall commence on the date hereof
unless otherwise provided in this Supplemental Resolution. However, the obligation to make

payment in full of all amounts due under the Series 2017 Bond and the Resolution in respect

the System to the Borrower and its inhabitants, and to all customers within or without the
boundaries of the Borrower, shall be reasonable and just, taking into consideration the
cost and value of the System and the cost of maintaining and operating it, and the
amounts necessary for the payment of all Bonds and the interest accruing thereon, and the
proper and necessary allowances for the depreciation of the System, and no free service
shall be provided to any Person. It is covenanted and agreed that the rates, charges and
rentals to be charged to all recipients of water services shall be maintained and shall be
revised, whenever and as often as may be necessary, according to schedules such that the
revenues for each fiscal year will be at least sufficient to pay the Operating Expenses, to
maintain the balance in the Reserve Account at the Reserve Requirement, to provide
reserves for the replacement and depreciation of the System, to maintain the Operating
Reserve, to produce Net Revenues during each fiscal year commencing with the fiscal
year ending June 30, 2011, not less than 110% of the maximum annual principal and
Page 38 of 54
Resolution 4788, 5.3 AIG Trater Storage Tank Revenue Bond Issuance and Terms
interest payable on any outstanding Bonds in the current or any future fiscal year, and to
produce Surplus Net Revenues during each fiscal year sufficient to pay principal and
interest on Subordinate Obligations as and when due.
If at the close of any fiscal year the Net Revenues or Surplus Net Revenues
actually received during such year have been less than required hereby, the Borrower will
forthwith prepare a schedule of altered rates, charges and rentals which are just and
equitable and sufficient to produce Net Revenues and Surplus Net Revenues in such
amounts, and place such schedule in operation at the earliest possible date.
I
i
The establishment of the above ratio of Net Revenues to principal and interest on
the Bonds is deemed necessary for the DNRC to make the 2011 Loans to the Borrower.
N
Net Revenues in excess of the requirements of this Section 6.7 may be used as authorized
in Article XI of this Resolution."
(d) Section 10.3. Section 10.3 of the Original Resolution is hereby amended to read, in
if
its entirety, as follows.
if
"Section 10.3. Other Parity Bonds. The Borrower reserves the right to issue
additional Bonds payable from the Revenue Bond Account, on a parity as to both
principal and interest with the Series 2011 Bonds, if the Net Revenues of the System for
the last complete fiscal year preceding the date of issuance of such additional Bonds have
J
equaled at least 110% of the maximum amount of principal and interest payable from
said Revenue Bond Account in any subsequent fiscal year during the term of the
outstanding Bonds, on all Bonds then outstanding and on the additional Bonds proposed
to be issued, and so long as the DNRC is the holder of any Bonds, the written consent of
the DNRC shall be obtained prior to the issuance of such additional Bonds. For the
purpose of the foregoing computation, the Net Revenues for the fiscal year preceding the
issuance of additional Bonds shall be those shown by the financial reports caused to be
prepared by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2(e), except that if the rates and charges
for services provided by the System have been changed since the beginning of such
A
preceding fiscal year, then the rates and charges in effect at the time of issuance of the
additional Bonds or finally authorized to go into effect within 60 days thereafter shall be
a
Page 39 of 54
Resolution 4788, 5.3 MG TVater Storage Tank Revenue Bond Issuance and Terms
applied to the quantities of service actually rendered and made available during such
preceding fiscal year to ascertain the gross revenues, from which there shall be deducted
to determine the Net Revenues, the actual operation and maintenance cost plus any
additional annual costs of operation and maintenance which the Consultant estimates will
be incurred because of the improvement or extension of the System to be constructed
from the proceeds of the additional Bonds proposed to be issued. In no event shall any
additional Bonds be issued and made payable from the Revenue Bond Account if the
Borrower is then in default in any payment of principal of or interest on any outstanding
Bonds payable therefrom or if there then exists any deficiency in the balances required by
this Resolution to be maintained in any of the accounts of the Water System Fund, which
will not be cured or restored upon the issuance of the additional Bonds. In connection
with the issuance of a series of additional Bonds, the Borrower shall cause amounts in the
Reserve Account to be increased, from the proceeds of the additional Bonds or from
surplus Net Revenues, to an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement during the teim of
the outstanding Bonds or so much thereof as will not cause the Borrower to violate the
provisions of Section 12.2 hereof."
Section 11.4 Effect of Amendments. The Original Resolution, as amended and
supplemented to the date hereof, shall be further amended and supplemented by the above
provisions of Section 11.3 as of the date of this Supplemental Resolution, and shall continue in
