to issue and sell its revenue bonds payable during a term not exceeding forty years from their date
of issue, to provide funds for the reconstruction, improvement, betterment and extension of the
System or to refund its revenue bonds issued for such purpose; provided that the bonds and the

rates, fees and charges for the services, facilities and commodities furnished by the undertaking,
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
14
and are not to create any obligation for the payment of which taxes may be levied except to pay
for services provided by the undertaking to the Borrower.
(b) The System. The Borrower, pursuant to the Enabling Act and other laws of the State,
has established and presently owns and operates the System.
(c) The Davis Lift Station and Norton East Project. After investigation of the facts and as
authorized by the Enabling Act, this Commission has determined it to be necessary and desirable
and in the best interests of the Borrower to acquire and construct the Davis Lift Station and Norton
East Project.
(d) Outstanding Bonds. Pursuant to the Enabling Act and the Resolution, the Borrower
has issued, and has outstanding its Series 2010B Bond, Series 2010C Bond, Series 2010D Bond,
Series 2010F Bond, Series 2010G Bond, and Series 2010H Bond. The Series 2010B Bond, the
Series 2010C Bond, the Series 2010D Bond, the Series 2010F Bond, the Series 2010G Bond, and
the Series 2010H Bond are parity bonds payable from Net Revenues of the System. No other
bonds or indebtedness are outstanding that are payable from or secured by revenues of the System.
(e) Additional Bonds. The Borrower reserved the right under Section 10.3 of the
Original Resolution, as amended by this Supplemental Resolution, to issue additional Bonds
payable from the Revenue Bond Account of the Fund on a parity as to both principal and interest
with the outstanding Bonds, if the Net Revenues of the System for the last complete fiscal year
preceding the date of issuance of such additional Bonds have equaled at least 110% of the
maximum amount of principal and interest payable from the 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. For the purpose of the foregoing
computation, the Net Revenues for the fiscal year preceding the issuance of the additional Bonds
shall be those shown by the financial reports caused to be prepared by the Borrower pursuant to
the Original Resolution, except that if the rates and charges for services provided by the System
or finally authorized to go into effect within 60 days after the issuance of the additional Bonds
have been changed since the beginning of such preceding fiscal year, then the rates and charges
in effect at the time of issuance of the additional Bonds (or within 60 days thereafter) shall be
applied to the quantities of service actually rendered and made available during such preceding
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F

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 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 the Original Resolution to be maintained in any of the accounts of the Fund,
which will not be cured or restored upon the issuance of the additional Bonds. It is hereby
determined that the Borrower is authorized to issue $14,849,000 in aggregate principal amount
of additional Bonds pursuant to Section 10.3 of the Original Resolution, as amended, payable
from and secured by the Net Revenues on a parity with the outstanding Series 2010B Bond,
Series 2010C Bond, Series 2010D Bond, Series 2010F Bond, Series 2010G Bond, and Series
2010H Bond, , and the Mayor, City Manager and City Finance Director are authorized and
directed to sign a certificate confirming such determination.
For purposes of the foregoing computations, principal of and interest on the 2020A Loan
are disregarded. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if a Noncompliance Certificate is
delivered, then principal and interest will become due and owing on the Series 2020A Bond as
provided in Section 5.1 of this Supplemental Resolution, and the Borrower shall thereupon, and in
any event no later than three (3) months after delivery of a Noncompliance Statement, to the extent
required by Section 6.7 of the Original Resolution, as amended by this Supplemental Resolution,
adjust its schedule of fees, rates, and charges applicable to the System to cause Net Revenues and
Surplus Net Revenues to be produced in an amount at least equal to that required by this
Supplemental Resolution.
(f) No Administrative Expense Surcharge or Loan Loss Reserve Surcharge. The DNRC
has determined that in connection with the sound and prudent management of the Program, there
is no need for an Administrative Expense Surcharge or Loan Loss Reserve Surcharge, and that
instead of such surcharges, the interest rate on the Davis and Norton ABC Loans is 2.50% per
annum.

Section 2.4 Covenants Relating to the Tax-Exempt Status of the State Bonds.
(a) The Borrower covenants and agrees that it will not use or permit to be used any of the
proceeds of the Series ABC Bonds or any other funds of the Borrower in respect of the Davis Lift
Station and Norton East Project or the Series ABC Bonds, directly or indirectly, in a manner that

within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code or would otherwise cause the interest on the State
Bonds to be included in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation.
(b) The Borrower agrees that it will not enter into, or allow any “related person” (as defined
in Section 147(a)(2) of the Code) to enter into, any arrangement, formal or informal, for the

Project directly or indirectly in any trade or business carried on by any Person who is not a

which is also a Public Entity if such transfer is otherwise permitted under the Resolution and if
such organization agrees with the DNRC to comply with Section 2.3(h), Section 2.3(i) and Section
2.4 of this Supplemental Resolution and if the DNRC receives an Opinion of Bond Counsel that
such transfer will not violate the Act or the Clean Water Act or adversely affect the exclusion of
interest on the State Bonds from gross income or purposes of federal income taxation. In addition,
except as otherwise provided in the Resolution or in any Collateral Documents, the Borrower may
sell or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Davis Lift Station and Norton East Project which
has become obsolete or outmoded or is being replaced or for other reasons is not needed by the

which the State did not intend to be excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes)
from gross income of the recipients thereof for federal income tax purposes.
(f) The Borrower agrees that during the term of the Davis and Norton ABC Loans it will

adversely affect the exclusion of interest on the Series ABC Bonds or the State Bonds from gross

of this Supplemental Resolution, that the Borrower has complied with Section 1.150-2
of the Regulations;
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
31
(6) the items required by the Indenture for the portion of the Davis and Norton
ABC Loans to be disbursed at the applicable Closing; and
(7) such other certificates, documents and other information as the DNRC, the
DEQ or the Opinion of Bond Counsel referred to in subparagraph (1) may require
(including any necessary arbitrage rebate instructions).
(c) In order to obtain a disbursement of a portion of the Davis and Norton ABC Loans to
pay costs of the Davis Lift Station and Norton East Project, the Borrower shall submit to the DNRC
and the Trustee a signed request for disbursement on the form prescribed by the DNRC, with all
attachments required by such form. The Borrower may obtain disbursements only for costs which
have been legally incurred and are due and payable. All Loan disbursements will be made to the
Borrower only upon proof that cost was incurred.
(d) From and after the 2020B First Advance, the Davis and Norton ABC Loans shall be
disbursed, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Supplemental Resolution, in the
following order:
(1) First, at Closing on the Series 2020A Bond and Series 2020B
Bond, the initial advance of the 2020A Loan and the 2020B First Advance will be
disbursed to the Borrower, after which each advance will be split equally between
the 2020A Loan and the 2020B Loan, until the entire amount of the 2020A Loan is
advanced.
(2) Second, after the 2020A Loan is advanced in full, the entire
amount of the 2020B Loan will be disbursed to the Borrower as and when needed.
(3) Third, after the entire principal amount of the 2020B Loan has
been disbursed to the Borrower, at Closing on the Series C Bond, the 20__C First
Advance will be disbursed to the Borrower, after which the remaining amount of
the 20__C Loan will be disbursed to the Borrower as and when needed.
(e) The Borrower shall not be entitled to, and the DNRC shall have no obligation to make,
the 2020B First Advance or the 20__C First Advance or any subsequent advance of any amounts
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
32
under the 2020B Loan or the 20__C Loan until such time as the Borrower shall have funded the
Reserve Account in an amount then required to satisfy the Reserve Requirement.
(f) The Borrower shall submit the requests for the 2020B First Advance and the 20__C
First Advance in the form required by the DNRC so that it is received in sufficient time for the
DNRC to process the information by the date desired by the Borrower for the making of the 2020B
First Advance and the 20__C First Advance, respectively.
(g) If all or a portion of the Davis and Norton ABC Loans is made to reimburse a Borrower
for Project costs paid by it prior to Closing, the Borrower shall present at the applicable Closing
the items required by Section 4.1(b) relating to such costs. The Trustee shall disburse such
amounts to the Borrower pursuant to a disbursement schedule complying with the requirements of
the Clean Water Act established by the DNRC and the Borrower at the Closing.
(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Trustee shall not be obligated to
disburse the Davis and Norton ABC Loans any faster or to any greater extent than it has available
EPA Capitalization Grants, Bond proceeds and other amounts available therefor in the Revolving
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 2020 Davis Lift
Station and Norton East Project costs are incurred faster than the Borrower projected at the
applicable Closing, there may be delays in making disbursements of the applicable Loans for such
costs because of the schedule under which EPA makes EPA Capitalization Grant money available
to the DNRC. The DNRC will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain an acceleration of such
schedule if necessary.
(i) Upon making each 2020A Loan disbursement, 2020B Loan disbursement, and 20__C
Loan Disbursement, the Trustee shall note such disbursement on Schedule A to the Series 2020A
Bond, Series 2020B Bond, and the Series C Bond, respectively. At the respective Closings,
Schedule A to the Series 2020B Bond shall note the 2020B First Advance and Schedule A to the
Series C Bond shall note the 20__C First Advance.
(j) The Borrower agrees that it will deposit in the Reserve Account upon receipt thereof,
on the dates of the 2020B First Advance and 20__C First Advance and any subsequent
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
33
disbursement dates, any proceeds of the 2020B Loan and the 20__C Loan, as applicable,
borrowed for the purpose of increasing the balance in the Reserve Account to the Reserve
Requirement. The Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that any portions of the Davis and
Norton ABC Loans representing capitalized interest shall be advanced only on Payment Dates
and shall be transferred by the Trustee on the Payment Date directly to the Revenue Bond
Account. The amount of any such transfer shall be a credit against the interest payments due on
the Series ABC Bonds and interest thereon shall accrue only from the date of transfer.
(k) Compliance by the Borrower with its representations, covenants and agreements
contained in the Resolution, including this Supplemental Resolution and the Collateral Documents
shall be a further condition precedent to the disbursement of the Davis and Norton ABC Loans 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 Davis and Norton ABC Loans.
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 payments
under Article V hereof shall commence only upon the first disbursement by the Trustee of the
2020B First Advance.
Section 4.3 Termination of Loan Term. The Borrower’s obligations under this
Supplemental Resolution and the Collateral Documents in respect of the Series ABC Bonds shall
terminate upon payment in full of all amounts due under the Series ABC Bonds and this
Supplemental Resolution; provided, however, that the covenants and obligations provided in
Article VI of this Supplemental Resolution shall survive the termination of the Resolution.
Section 4.4 Loan Closing Submissions. On or prior to the Closing, the Borrower will
have delivered to the DNRC and the Trustee the closing submissions required by Section 7.05 of
the Indenture.

ARTICLE V
REPAYMENT OF 2020ABC LOANS
Section 5.1 Repayment of Davis and Norton ABC Loans. The Borrower shall repay the
amounts borrowed by it pursuant to Section 4.1 in accordance with this Section 5.1.
5.1.1. Interest. Until a Determination Statement is delivered by the DNRC
to the Borrower and so long as the Borrower’s obligation to repay the principal of the 2020A Loan
is forgiven as provided in Section 5.1.2 below, amounts disbursed by the DNRC under Section 4.1
hereof that are evidenced by the Series 2020A Bond bear interest at the rate of zero percent (0.00%)
per annum from the date of each advance; provided, however, if the DNRC delivers to the
Borrower a Noncompliance Statement, then all principal of the Series 2020A Bond advanced by
the DNRC shall be payable and amounts disbursed by the DNRC under Section 4.1 hereof that are
evidenced by the Series 2020A Bond shall bear interest at the rate of two and one-half percent
(2.50%) per annum from the date of each advance under the Series 2020A Bond. The 2020B Loan
and the 20__C Loan shall each bear interest at the rate of two and one-half percent (2.50%) per
annum. The Borrower shall pay all Loan Repayments in lawful money of the United States of
America to the DNRC. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprising
12 months of 30 days each.
5.1.2. Repayment of 2020A Loan; Principal Forgiveness.
(a) The Borrower is obligated to repay the principal of and interest on the 2020A Loan,
unless the DNRC forgives the Borrower’s obligation to repay the principal of the 2020A Loan as
provided in Section 5.1.2(b). Subject to the provisions of Section 5.1.2(b), the Loan Repayments
on the 2020A Loan shall be due on each Payment Date, following the date of delivery by the
DNRC of a Noncompliance Statement and concluding on July 1, 2040, and the amount of each
principal payment shall be calculated on the basis of a substantially level debt service at the rate
of 2.50% per annum; provided that principal of the 2020A Loan is payable only in amounts that
are multiples of $1,000.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.1.2(a), so long as the Borrower is proceeding diligently to
completion of the Davis Lift Station and Norton East Project and the Borrower has executed and
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
35
delivered the Compliance Certificate and Request to the DNRC in form and substance satisfactory
to the DNRC and the DEQ in their sole and absolute discretion within thirty (30) days after the
date that the Compliance Certificate and Request is provided to the Borrower by the DNRC, the
DNRC will, following review and approval of the Compliance Certificate and Request, deliver to
the Borrower a Forgiveness Statement and the Borrower will thereafter have no obligation to repay
amounts advanced under the Series 2020A Bond or interest thereon and the Series 2020A Bond
will be marked “CANCELLED” and returned by the DNRC to the Borrower. However, in the
event the Borrower fails to deliver timely the Compliance Certificate and Request, or the Borrower
cannot submit the Compliance Certificate and Request because it cannot make the certifications
required therein, or the Compliance Certificate and Request is delivered in a form that deviates
materially from that attached hereto as Appendix D as determined in the sole and absolute
discretion of the DNRC and the DEQ, or the DNRC or the DEQ determines at any time that the
Davis Lift Station and Norton East Project or any portion thereof or of the work relating thereto
fails to comply with Program requirements, then the DNRC will deliver to the Borrower a
Noncompliance Statement. Upon delivery of a Noncompliance Statement by the DNRC to the
Borrower, all principal advanced or to be advanced under the Series 2020A Bond, together with
interest thereon from the date of each advance, shall be payable as provided in Section 5.1.2 (a).
(c) In addition, in the event the DNRC delivers a Noncompliance Statement (i) the Series
2020A Bond will continue in effect as a Subordinate Obligation, and (ii) the Borrower will
forthwith comply with the rate covenant set forth in Section 6.7 of the Original Resolution, as
amended by this Supplemental Resolution, and, if necessary, increase the rates and charges of the
System to satisfy such rate covenant as soon as practicable and in any event no later than three (3)
months after the date of delivery to the Borrower by the DNRC of a Noncompliance Statement.
5.1.3. Repayment of 2020B Loan and 20__C Loan. The Loan Repayments on the
2020B Loan and the 20__C Loan required by this Section 5.1 shall be due in the amounts and on
the dates as set forth in Schedule B to the Series 2020B Bond and Series C Bond, respectively, as
such Schedule B may be modified from time to time as described below. The amount of each
principal payment with respect to each of the 2020B Loan and 20__C Loan shall be calculated on
the basis of a substantially level debt service at the rate of 2.50% per annum over a term of
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
36
approximately 20 years, or 40 semiannual payments of principal and interest, provided that
principal shall be payable only in amounts that are multiples of $1,000.
5.1.4. Details Regarding 2020ABC Loan Repayments. Upon each disbursement
of the Davis and Norton ABC Loans to the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof, the Trustee
shall enter or cause to be entered the amount advanced on Schedule A to the Series 2020A Bond,
the Series 2020B Bond, and the Series C Bond, as applicable, under “Advances” and the total
amount advanced under Section 4.1, including such disbursement, under “Total Amount
Advanced.” Loan Repayments on the 2020B Loan and the 20__C Loan and, if applicable, on the
2020A Loan, accrue on each such advance from the date of disbursement and shall be due and
payable on the dates and in the amounts shown in Schedule B to the Series 2020A Bond, the Series
2020B Bond, and the Series C Bond, as such Schedule B shall be modified from time to time as
provided below. The portion of each payment consisting of principal and of interest shall be set
forth in Schedule B to the applicable Bond on and after Closing on such Bond.
Once the entire principal amount of the Series ABC Bonds has been drawn, or the
completion certificate for the Davis Lift Station and Norton East Project has been delivered to the
DNRC, the Trustee shall revise Schedule B to the applicable Series ABC Bond or Bonds in
accordance with this Section 5.1 and the Trustee shall send a copy of each such Schedule B to the
Borrower.
If the DNRC shall have delivered a Noncompliance Statement, then
Schedule B to the Series 2020A Bond shall continue to reflect interest on amounts advanced under
the Series 2020A Bond at the rate of 2.50% per annum. If the DNRC delivers a Forgiveness
Statement, Schedule B to the Series 2020A Bond will be disregarded and of no effect.
Past-due Loan Repayments shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent
(10.00%) per annum, until paid.
Any payment of principal and interest as to the 2020B Loan, 20__C Loan,
and, if applicable, the 2020A Loan under this Section 5.1 shall be credited against the same
payment obligation under each of the Series 2020B Bond, the Series C Bond, and, as applicable,
the Series 2020A Bond.

receipt of a bill therefor, from any legally available funds therefor, including proceeds of the Davis
and Norton ABC Loans, all reasonable expenses of the DNRC and the Trustee in connection with
the Davis and Norton ABC Loans, the Collateral Documents and the Series ABC Bonds, including,

the Collateral Documents and this Supplemental Resolution (and with the exceptions noted
therein) and all expenses, including attorneys’ fees, relating to any amendments, waivers, consents
or collection or enforcement proceedings pursuant to the provisions hereof or thereof.
Section 5.3 Prepayments. The Borrower may not prepay all or any part of the
outstanding principal amount of the Series 2020B Bond, the Series C Bond, and, if applicable, the
Series 2020A Bond, unless (i) a Determination Statement has been delivered, (ii) it obtains the
prior written consent of the DNRC thereto, and (iii) no Loan Repayment is then delinquent. Any
prepayment permitted by the DNRC must be accompanied by payment of accrued interest to the
date of prepayment on the amount of principal prepaid. If the Series ABC Bonds are prepaid in
part pursuant to this Section 5.3, such prepayments shall be applied to principal payments in
inverse order of maturity or as otherwise determined by the DNRC.

perform its other agreements contained in this Supplemental Resolution, the Series ABC Bonds

and Collateral Documents shall be absolute and unconditional, except as otherwise provided herein
or in such documents. The Borrower (a) shall not suspend or discontinue any payments provided
for in this Supplemental Resolution and the Series ABC Bonds, (b) shall perform all its other
agreements in this Supplemental Resolution, the Series ABC Bonds and the Collateral Documents
and (c) shall not terminate this Supplemental Resolution, the Series ABC Bonds or the Collateral

System, commercial frustration of purpose, any dispute with the DNRC or the EPA, any change
in the laws of the United States or of the State or any political subdivision thereof or any failure of
the DNRC to perform any of its agreements, whether express or implied, or any duty, liability or
obligation arising from or connected with this Supplemental Resolution.
Section 5.5 Limited Liability. All payments of principal of and interest on the Davis
and Norton ABC Loans and other payment obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the
Series ABC Bonds shall be special, limited obligations of the Borrower payable with respect to
the Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond solely out of the Net Revenues or, with respect to
the Series 2020A Bond, solely out of Surplus Net Revenues, and shall not, except at the option of
the Borrower and as permitted by law, be payable out of any other revenues of the Borrower. The
obligations of the Borrower under this Supplemental Resolution and the Series ABC Bonds shall
never constitute an indebtedness of the Borrower within the meaning of any State constitutional
provision or statutory or charter limitation and shall never constitute or give rise to a pecuniary
liability of the Borrower or a charge against its general credit or taxing power. The taxing powers
of the Borrower may not be used to pay principal of or interest on the Series ABC Bonds, no funds
or property of the Borrower other than the Net Revenues may be required to be used to pay
principal of or interest on the Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond, and no funds or property
of the Borrower other than the Surplus Net Revenues may be required to be used to pay principal
of or interest, if any, on the Series 2020A Bond.

ARTICLE VIII
THE SERIES ABC BONDS
Section 8.1 Net Revenues Available. The Borrower is authorized to charge just and
equitable rates, charges and rentals for all services directly or indirectly furnished by the System,
and to pledge and appropriate to the Series 2010B Bond, the Series 2010C Bond, the Series 2010D
Bond, the Series 2010F Bond, the Series 2010G Bond, the Series 2010H Bond, the Series 2020B
Bond and the Series C Bond the Net Revenues (and in respect of the Series 2020A Bond, if
necessary, the Surplus Net Revenues) to be derived from the operation of the System, including
improvements, betterments or extensions thereof hereafter constructed or acquired. The Net
Revenues to be produced by such rates, charges and rentals during the term of the Series 2010B
Bond, the Series 2010C Bond, the Series 2010D Bond, the Series 2010F Bond, the Series 2010G
Bond, the Series 2010H Bond, Series 2020B Bond, and Series C Bond are expected to be more
than sufficient to pay the principal and interest when due on such Bonds, and to create and maintain
reasonable reserves therefor and to provide an adequate allowance for replacement and
depreciation, as prescribed herein. For purposes of the foregoing statement, principal of and
interest on the 2020A Loan are disregarded. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if the
DNRC delivers a Noncompliance Statement to the Borrower as determined in the sole and
complete discretion of the DNRC and DEQ, then principal and interest will become due and owing
on the 2020A Loan evidenced by the Series 2020A Bond as provided in Section 5.1.2 and the
Borrower shall thereupon, and no later than three months after delivery of such Noncompliance
Statement, to the extent required by Section 6.7 of the Original Resolution, as amended, adjust its
schedule of fees, rates, and charges applicable to the System to cause Net Revenues and Surplus
Net Revenues to be produced in an amount at least equal to that required by the Resolution.
Section 8.2 Issuance and Sale of the Series ABC Bonds. The Commission has
investigated the facts necessary and hereby finds, determines and declares it to be necessary and
desirable for the Borrower to issue the Series ABC Bonds to evidence the Davis and Norton ABC
Loans. The Series ABC Bonds are issued to the DNRC without public sale pursuant to Montana
Code Annotated, Section 7-7-4433.
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F

Section 8.3 Terms. The Series 2020A Bond, the Series 2020B Bond, and the Series C
Bond shall be in the maximum principal amount equal to the original 2020A Committed Amount,
2020B Committed Amount, and 20__C Committed Amount, respectively, shall each be issued as
a single, fully registered bond numbered R-1; shall be dated as of their respective dates of delivery
to the DNRC; and shall bear interest at the rate charged by the DNRC on the 2020A Loan, 2020B
Loan, and 20__C Loan, respectively. The series designation for the Series C Bond shall be
completed with the calendar year in which the Series C Bond is issued, expected to be 20__, such
designation may or may not include the letter “C,” and the designation provided on the face page
of the final Series C Bond shall be conclusive. The principal of and interest on the Series 2020B
Bond and the Series C Bond, and, if applicable, the principal of and interest on the Series 2020A
Bond shall be payable on the same dates and in the same amounts as Loan Repayments are payable.
Advances of principal of the Series 2020A Bond or Series 2020B Bond or Series C Bond shall be
deemed made when advances of the 2020A Loan or 2020B Loan or 20__C Loan, respectively, are
made under Section 4.1, and such advances shall be payable in accordance with Schedule B to the
Series 2020B Bond, the Series C Bond, and, if applicable, the Series 2020A Bond, as it may be
revised by the DNRC from time to time in accordance with Section 5.1. The Series 2020A Bond
is a Subordinate Obligation payable only from the Surplus Net Revenues available in the
Replacement and Depreciation Account or the Surplus Account. The Borrower may prepay the
Series ABC Bonds, in whole or in part, only upon the terms and conditions under which it can
prepay the Davis and Norton ABC Loans under Section 5.3.
Section 8.4 Negotiability, Transfer and Registration. The Series ABC Bonds shall be
fully registered as to both principal and interest, and shall be initially registered in the name of and
payable to the DNRC. While so registered, principal of and interest on the Series ABC Bonds
shall be payable to the DNRC at the Office of the Department of Natural Resources and
Conservation, 1539 Eleventh Avenue, Helena, Montana 59620 or such other place as may be
designated by the DNRC in writing and delivered to the Borrower. The Series ABC Bonds shall
be negotiable, subject to the provisions for registration and transfer contained in this Section 8.4.
No transfer of the Series ABC Bonds shall be valid unless and until (1) the holder, or its duly
authorized attorney or legal representative, has executed the form of assignment appearing on the
Series ABC Bonds, and (2) the City Finance Director of the Borrower, as bond registrar (the
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
42
“Registrar”), has duly noted the transfer on the Series ABC Bonds and recorded the transfer on the
registration books of the Registrar. The Registrar may, prior to noting and recording the transfer,
require appropriate proof of the transferor’s authority and the genuineness of the transferor’s
signature. The Borrower shall be entitled to deem and treat the Person in whose name the Series
ABC Bonds is registered as the absolute owner of the Series ABC Bonds for all purposes,
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, and all payments to the registered holder shall be valid
and effectual to satisfy and discharge the Borrower’s liability upon such Bond to the extent of the
sum or sums so paid.
Section 8.5 Execution and Delivery. The Series ABC Bonds shall be executed on behalf
of the Borrower by the manual signatures of the Mayor, the City Manager, and the City Clerk.
Any or all of such signatures may be affixed at or prior to the date of delivery of the Series ABC
Bonds. In the event that any of the officers who shall have signed the Series ABC Bonds shall
cease to be officers of the Borrower before the Series ABC Bonds are issued or delivered, their
signatures shall remain binding upon the Borrower. Conversely, the Series ABC Bonds may be
signed by an authorized official who did not hold such office on the date of adoption of this
Supplemental Resolution. The Series ABC Bonds shall be delivered to the DNRC, or its attorney
or legal representative.
Section 8.6 Forms. The Series 2020A Bond shall be prepared in substantially the form
attached as Appendix B-1, the Series 2020B Bond shall be prepared in substantially the form
attached as Appendix B-2, and the Series C Bond shall be prepared in substantially the form
attached as Appendix B-3, in each case, with such changes thereto as may be necessary or desirable
and are approved by the City Manager and the DNRC. Without limitation of the meaning of the
foregoing, the Series C Bond may be changed to reflect the applicable designation based on the
year in which and date on which it is issued.
ARTICLE IX SECURITY FOR THE SERIES ABC BONDS
The Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond are issued as additional Bonds under Section
10.3 of the Original Resolution, as amended hereby, and shall, with the Series 2010B Bond, the
Series 2010C Bond, the Series 2010D Bond, the Series 2010F Bond, the Series 2010G Bond, the
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
43
Series 2010H Bond, and any other additional Bonds issued under the provisions of Article X of
the Original Resolution, excluding Section 10.4 thereof, be equally and ratably secured by the
provisions of the Resolution and payable out of the Net Revenues appropriated to the Revenue
Bond Account of the Sewer System Fund, without preference or priority, all as provided in the
Resolution, and secured by the Reserve Account, as further provided in Section 11.5 of the Original
Resolution and in the following sentence. Upon each advance of principal of the Series 2020B
Bond and the Series C Bond, the City Finance Director of the Borrower shall transfer from
proceeds of the Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond such amount or amounts to the Reserve
Account to cause the balance therein to equal the Reserve Requirement, treating such principal
amount as outstanding. Upon each advance of the Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond, the
deposit to the Reserve Account shall be sufficient to cause the balance in the Reserve Account to
equal the Reserve Requirement in respect of the Series 2010B Bond, the Series 2010C Bond, the
Series 2010D Bond, the Series 2010F Bond, the Series 2010G Bond, the Series 2010H Bond, and

than the Reserve Requirement. In the event the principal of and interest become payable under
the Series 2020A Bond, the Borrower shall cause rates and charges to be increased to produce

or other agreement with any non-governmental person relating to the use of the Davis Lift Station
and Norton East Project or the System or security for the payment of the Series 2020B Bond and
the Series C Bond which might cause the Series 2020B Bond or the Series C Bond, or either of
them, to be considered a “private activity bond” or “private loan bond” within the meaning of
Section 141 of the Code.
Section 10.2 General Covenant. The Borrower covenants and agrees with the owners
from time to time of the Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond that it will not take or permit
to be taken by any of its officers, employees or agents any action which would cause the interest

income tax purposes under the Code and the Regulations, and covenants to take any and all actions
within its powers to ensure that the interest on the Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond will
not become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes under the Code and the
Regulations.

of the Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond, it is reasonably expected that the proceeds of the
Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond will be used in a manner that would not cause the Series
2020B Bond or the Series C Bond to be an “arbitrage bond” within the meaning of Section 148 of
the Code and the Regulations.
Section 10.4 Arbitrage Rebate. The Borrower acknowledges that the Series 2020B Bond
and the Series C Bond are subject to the rebate requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code. The

applicable Treasury Regulations to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Series 2020B Bond
and the Series C Bond from gross income for federal income tax purposes, unless the Series 2020B
Bond and the Series C Bond qualify for the exception from the rebate requirement under Section
148(f)(4)(B) of the Code and no “gross proceeds” of the Series 2020B Bond and the Series C Bond

Manager, and the City Finance Director are hereby authorized and directed to execute a Rebate

rates, charges and rentals for all services and facilities furnished and made available by 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 or corporation. It is covenanted and agreed that the rates, charges
and rentals to be charged to all recipients of sewer services shall be maintained and shall
be revised, whenever and as often as may be necessary, according to schedules such that
the gross revenues for each fiscal year will be at least sufficient to pay the current expenses
of operation and maintenance as herein defined, to maintain a balance in the Reserve
Account equal to the Reserve Requirement, to provide reserves for the replacement and
depreciation of the System, to maintain the Operating Reserve herein established, to
produce Net Revenues during each fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal year ending
June 30, 2010, not less than 110% of the maximum annual principal and interest payable
on any outstanding Bonds in the current or any future fiscal year, and to produce Surplus
Net Revenues sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on any 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
amount, and will do all things necessary to the end that such schedule will be placed in
operation at the earliest possible date.”
(d) Section 10.3. Section 10.3 of the Original Resolution is hereby amended to read, in its

“Section 10.3. Other Parity Bonds. The Borrower reserves the right to issue
additional Bonds payable from the Revenue Bond Account of the Fund, on a parity as to
DocuSign Envelope ID: C077ADC4-1264-442A-8B5F-BAFCE1236F8F
49
both principal and interest with the Series 2010B Bond, the Series 2010C Bond, the Series
2010D Bond, the Series 2010F Bond, the Series 2010G Bond, and the Series 2010H Bond,
if the Net Revenues of the System for the last complete fiscal year preceding the date of
issuance of such additional Bonds have 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(f), as amended,
except that if the rates and charges for services provided by the System have been changed
since the beginning of such 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 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 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 the amount in the Reserve
Account to be increased, from the proceeds of the additional Bonds or from Surplus Net
Revenues or other legally available funds of the Borrower, to an amount equal to the
Reserve Requirement during the term of the outstanding Bonds or so much thereof as will
not cause the Borrower to violate the provisions of Section 12.2 hereof.”
