It is hereby found and determined that: (A) For the benefit of its inhabitants, the Issuer pres- ently owns a water and sewer system (the "System"); and it is necessary for the continued preservation of the health, welfare, �0 convenience and safety of the Issuer and its inhabitants to con- struct extensions and improvements to the water distribution facili- ties of the System (the "Project"), in accordance with certain plans and specifications now on file with the City Clerk of the Issuer (the "Clerk"). (B) The Issuer has been advised by its consulting en- gineers and it is hereby found and determined that the estimated cost of constructing the Project in accordance with said plans and specifications is estimated at $660,000, which shall be paid with the proceeds of the sale of the bonds herein authorized (the "Bonds"), a federal grant and available moneys of the Issuer, and shall be deemed to include all expenses necessary, appurtenant or incidental thereto, including the cost of any land or interest therein or of any fixtures or equipment, or property necessary or convenient therefor, the cost. of labor and materials to complete such construction, engineering and legal expenses, fiscal expenses, expenses for estimates of costs and revenues, expenses for plans, specifications and surveys, interest during construction, if any, administrative expenses and all other necessary miscellaneous expenses. (C)(i) Pursuant to Section 166.231, Florida Statutes, formerly Section 167.431, Florida Statutes, the Issuer did, on January 23, 1952, enact nonemergency Ordinance No. 13 levying and imposing a utilities services tax on every purchase of electricity, metered or bottled gas (natural, liquefied, petroleum gas or manu- factured), telephone service and telegraph service within the corporate limits of the Issuer. The proceeds to be derived by the Issuer from the utili- ties services tax are hereinafter referred to as the "Excise Taxes." (ii) The revenues to be derived annually from the rates, rentals, fees and other charges made and collected for the services and facilities of the System are estimated to be $395,300, and, together with the Excise Taxes, will be sufficient to pay, as the same shall become due and payable, the principal of and interest on -2- the parity obligations, hereinafter defined, and the prior lien obligations, hereinafter defined, the principal of and interest on the Bonds and the annual cost of operating, repairing and maintain- ing the System, the aggregate annual amount of which is estimated to be $348,805. It is estimated that the period of usefulness of the System will exceed forty-one years. (D) It is deemed necessary and desirable to pledge the net revenues of the System and the Excise Taxes to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds. No part of such reve- nues and Excise Taxes have been pledged or hypothecated except with respect to the Bonds, and except that such revenues have been pledged to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Issuer's outstanding Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds dated Augus[24, 1977 , hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "parity obliga- tions" and to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Issuer's outstanding Waterworks and Sewer System Refunding and Improvement Revenue Bonds dated February 1, 1964, hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "prior lien obligations". The Orig- inal Instrument, in Section 3.04(I) thereof provides for the issu- ance of additional parity obligations under the terms, limitations and conditions provided therein; and the Issuer is authorized to issue the Bonds as additionalparity obligations within the autho- rization contained in Section 3.04(I) of the Original Instrument. The Bonds shall be on a parity and rank equally, as to lien on and source and security for payment from the net revenues of the System, the Excise Taxes and all other moneys of the Issuer derived from sources other than ad valorem taxation which shall be legally available for such purpose, and in all other respects, with the parity obligations. It is deemed necessary and desirable to pledge as additional security for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds all moneys of the Issuer derived from sources other than ad valorem taxation which shall be legally available for such purpose. (E) This instrument is declared to be and shall con- stitute a contract between the Issuer and all of the holders of the -3- Bonds; and the covenants and agreements herein set forth to be performed by the Issuer are and shall be for the equal benefit, protection and security of all of the legal holders of any and all of the Bonds, all of which shall be of equal rank and without preference, priority or distinction of any of the Bonds over any other, except as hereinafter provided. (F) The Issuer is not, under this instrument, obligated to levy any ad valorem taxes on any real or personal property situated within its corporate territorial limits to pay the prin- cipal of or interest on the Bonds or to pay the cost of maintain- ing, repairing and. operating the System. The Bonds shall not constitute a lien upon the System or any other property of the Issuer or situated within its corporate territorial limits. 1.03 Definitions.

The validation certificate endorsed on the Bonds shall be executed with the manual or facsimile signature of the Mayor. Any Bond may be signed and sealed on behalf of the Issuer by such person who at the actual time of the execution of such Bond shall hold the proper office of the Issuer, although at the date of -7- such Bonds such person may not have held such office or may not have been so authorized. The coupons attached to the Bonds shall be authenticated with the facsimile signatures of any present or future Mayor and Clerk of the Issuer. The Issuer may adopt and use for such purposes the facsimile signatures of any such persons who shall have held such offices at any time after the date of the adoption of this instrument, notwithstanding that either or both shall have ceased to hold such office at the time the Bonds shall be actually sold and delivered. 2.06 Negotiability and Registration. The Bonds shall be and shall have all the qualities and incidents of negotiable instru- ments under the law merchant and the Laws of the State of Florida, and each successive holder, in accepting any of the Bonds or the coupons appertaining thereto, shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that the Bonds shall be and have all of said qualities and incidents of negotiable instruments. The Bonds may be registered, at the option of the holder, as to both principal and interest upon the books kept for the registration and transfer of Bonds by the Clerk, as Bond Registrar, and endorsed upon the Bonds by the Bond Registrar in the space provided thereon. After such registration, no transfer of the Bonds shall be valid unless made at the office of the Bond Regis- trar by the registered owner or by his duly authorized agent or representative and similarly noted on the Bonds, but at the expense of the holders the Bonds may be discharged from registration by being in like manner transferred to bearer, and thereupon transfer- ability by delivery shall be restored. At the option and expense of the holder, the Bonds may thereafter again from time to time be registered or transferred to bearer as before. The Bond Registrar shall not be required to make any such transfer of Bonds during fifteen (15) days next preceding an interest payment date on the Bonds, or in the case of any proposed redemption of Bonds, after such Bonds have been selected for redemption. 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 or on -8- account of the principal of any Bond and the 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 including the interest thereon to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. 2.07 Bonds Mutilated, Destroyed, Stolen or Lost. In case any Bond shall become mutilated, or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Issuer may in its discretion issue and deliver a new Bond of like tenor as the Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Bond, upon surren- der and cancellation of such mutilated Bond, or in lieu of and substitution for the Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, and upon the owner furnishing the Issuer satisfactory indemnity and complying with such other reasonable regulations and conditions as the Issuer may prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer may incur. All Bonds so surrendered shall be cancelled by the Clerk. If any such Bonds shall have matured or be about to mature, instead of issuing a substitute Bond the Issuer may pay the same, upon being indemnified as aforesaid, and if such Bond be lost, stolen or destroyed, without surrender thereof. Any such duplicate Bonds issued pursuant to this section shall constitute original, additional contractual obligations on the part of the Issuer whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Bonds be at any time found by anyone, and such duplicate Bonds shall be entitled to equal and proportionate benefits and rights as to lien on and source and security for payment from the funds, as hereinafter pledged, to the same extent as all other Bonds issued hereunder. 2.08 Form of Bonds. The text of the Bonds shall be in substantially the following form, with only such omissions, inser- tions and variations as may be necessary and/or desirable and approved by the Mayor prior to the issuance thereof (which neces- sity and/or desirability and approval shall be presumed by his execution of the Bonds and the Issuer's delivery of the Bonds to -9- the purchaser thereof): No. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA STATE OF FLORIDA COUNTY OF VOLUSIA CITY OF EDGEWATER WATER AND SEWER REVENUE BOND OF 1978 S KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that the City of Edgewater, a public body created and existing under and by virtue of the Laws of the State of Florida (the "Issuer"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the bearer, or if this Bond be registered to the registered holder as herein provided, on the first day of September, 19 , from the special funds hereinafter mentioned, the principal sum of THOUSAND DOLLARS and to pay interest thereon, from the date of the delivery of this Bond to the purchaser thereof, solely from said special funds, at the rate of per centum ( 8) per annum, payable on September 1, 1979 and annually thereafter on the first day of September of each year upon the presentation and surrender of the annexed coupons as they severally fall due, unless registered. Both principal of and interest on this Bond are payable at in lawful money, of the Gaited States of America. This Bond is one of an authorized issue of Bonds in the aggregate principal amount of $300,000 of like date, tenor and effect, except as to number, denomination, interest rate (if all Bonds do not bear the same rate of interest) and date of maturity, issued to finance a part of the cost of acquiring, erecting and constructing extensions and improvements to the water facilities of the municipal water and sewer system of the Issuer (the "System"), under the authority of and in full compliance with the Constitution and Statutes of the State of Florida, particularly Chapter 159, Part I, Florida Statutes, and a resolution duly adopted by the Issuer on December 31, 1975, as supplemented by a resolution duly adopted by the Issuer on 1972 (the "Resolution"), and is subject to all the erms a conditions of the Resolution. -10- This Bond and the interest thereon are payable solely from and secured by a lien upon and a pledge of the net revenues to be derived from the operation of the System and the proceeds of certain municipal Excise Taxes and a pledge of all moneys of the Issuer derived from sources other than ad valorem taxation and legally available for such purpose, in the manner described in the Resolution. It is expressly agreed by the holder of this Bond that the full faith and credit of the Issuer are not pledged to the payment of the principal of and interest on this Bond and that such holder shall never have the right to require or compel the exercise of any taxing power of the Issuer to the payment of such principal and interest or the cost of maintaining, repairing and operating the System. This Bond and the obligation evidenced hereby shall not constitute a lien upon the System or any part thereof or upon any other property of the Issuer or situated within its corporate limits, but shall constitute a lien only on the net revenues de- rived from the operation of the System and said Excise Taxes. The lien of the holders of the Bonds of the issue of which this Bond is one on the revenues of the System and the Excise Taxes is equal to and on a parity with the lien on such revenues and Excise Taxes in favor of the Issuer's outstanding Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds dated 000a L/j )977 (the "parity obliga- tions"), and the pledge in favor of the holders of the. Bonds of the issue of which this Bond is one of all other money:3 of the Issuer derived from sources other than ad valorem taxation and legally available for such purpose shall be on a parity with the pledge thereof in favor of the parity obligations. The lien of the holders of the Bonds of the issue of which this Bond is one on the revenues of the System is junior, subordinate and inferior in every respect to the lien on such revenues in favor of the Issuer's outstanding Waterworks and Sewer System Refunding and Improvement Revenue Bonds dated February 1, 1974 (the "prior lien obligations"). The Issuer in the Resolution has covenanted and agreed with the holders of the Bonds of the issue of which this Bond is one that it will not hereafter issue -11- any additional obligations payable from the revenues of the System on a parity with the prior lien obligations. In and by the Resolution, the Issuer has covenanted and agreed with the holders of the Bonds of this issue that it will fix, establish, revise from time to time whenever necessary, main- tain and collect always such fees, rates, rentals and other charges for the use of the product, services and facilities of the System which, together with the proceeds of the Excise Taxes, will always produce cash revenues sufficient to pay, and out of such funds pay, as the same shall become due, the principal of and interest on the parity obligations, the prior lien obligations and the Bonds, the necessary expenses of operating and maintaining the System and all reserve, Sinking Fund or other payments required by the Resolution, and that such rates, rentals, fees and other charges will not be reduced so as to be insufficient to provide funds for such purposes, and that it will levy and collect the Excise Taxes at such rates, not exceeding the maximum rates permitted by law, as shall be necessary to provide funds which, together with the revenues of the System, will be sufficient to pay, and out of such funds pay, as the same shall become due, the principal of and interest on the parity obligations and the Bonds, the necessary expenses of operat- ing and maintaining the System and all reserve, Sinking Fund or other payments required by the Resolution, and that the rates of such Excise Taxes will not be reduced so as to be insufficient to provide funds for such purposes. The Bonds of this issue maturing on or before September 11 1988 are not subject to redemption prior to their respective stated dates of maturity. Bonds maturing September 1, 1989 and thereafter shall, at the option of the Issuer, be redeemable in whole or in part, in inverse numerical and maturity order, on September 1, 1988 or on any interest payment date thereafter at par and accrued interest, plus the following premiums, expressed as percentages of the par value of the Bonds so redeemed, if redeemed in the following years: -12- C� G 5%, if redeemed on September 1, 1988 or thereafter, to and including September 1, 1991; 4%, if redeemed on September 1, 1992 or thereafter, to and including September 1, 1995; 3%, if redeemed on September 1, 1996 or thereafter, to and including September 1, 1999; 2%, if redeemed on September 1, 2000 or thereafter, to and including September 1, 2003; 1%, if redeemed on September 1, 2004 or thereafter, to and including September 1, 2007; Without premium, if redeemed on September 1, 2008 or thereafter, but prior to maturity; provided, however, that notice of such redemption shall be given in the manner required by the Resolution. It is hereby certified and recited that all acts, condi- tions and things required to exist, to happen and to be performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Bond, exist, have happened and have been performed, in regular and due form and time as re- quired by the Laws and Constitution of the State of Florida appli- cable thereto, and that the issuance of this Bond, and of the issue of Bonds of which this Bond is one, does not violate any constitu- tional, statutory or charter limitations or provisions. This Bond and the coupons appertaining thereto are and have all the qualities and incidents of negotiable instruments under the law merchant and the Laws of the State of Florida. This Bond may be registered as to both principal and interest in accordance with the provisions endorsed hereon. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the City of Edgewater, Florida, has issued this Bond and has caused the same to be executed in its name and on its behalf by its Mayor and its corporate seal to be im- pressed hereon, attested and countersigned by its Clerk, all as of , 19 (SEAL) ATTESTED AND COUNTERSIGNED: Clerk CITY OF EDGEWATER, FLORIDA By Mayor -13- FORM OF COUPON No. W On the let day of September, 19 , unless the Bond to which this coupon is attached is callable and shall have been previously duly called for prior redemption and payment thereof duly made or provided for, the City of Edgewater, Florida, will pay to the bearer at , Florida, from the special funds described in the Bond to which this coupon is attached, the amount shown hereon in lawful money of the United States of America, upon presentation and surrender of this coupon, being one year's interest then due on its Water and Sewer Revenue Bond of 1978, dated 19 , No. CITY OF EDGEWATER, FLORIDA By Mayor (SEAL) ATTESTED AND COUNTERSIGNED: FORM OF VALIDATION CERTIFICATE This Bond is one of a series of Bonds which were vali- dated by judgment of the Circuit Court for Volusia County, Florida rendered on , 19 PROVISIONS FOR REGISTRATION This Bond may be registered as to both principal and interest on the books kept by said Clerk, as Bond Registrar, such registration being noted hereon by the Bond Registrar in the regis- tration blank below, the coupons being surrendered and the interest being payable only to the registered holder, remitted by mail, after which registration no transfer shall be valid unless made on said books by the registered holder or his legal representative and similarly noted in the registration blank below, but it may be discharged from registration by being transferred to bearer, after which it shall be transferable by delivery, or it may again be -14- registered as before.

The lien on and pledge of the revenues of the System in favor of the Bonds is junior, subordinate and inferior in every respect to the pledge of and lien on .such revenues in favor of the .outstanding prior lien obligations. 3.03 Application of Bond Proceeds. The Issuer hereby covenants that it will establish with the Bank, , Florida, a separate account or accounts (herein collectively called the "Construction Account") into which shall be deposited the proceeds from the sale of the Bonds (except such portion thereof as shall be necessary to pay interest on the Bonds during the construction of the Project, which shall be depos- ited in the Sinking Fund), grant funds and the additional funds, if any, required to assure payment in full of the cost of the Project. Withdrawals from the Construction Account shall be made only for such purposes as shall have been previously specified in the Project cost estimates and as shall be approved by the Issuer's consulting engineers for the Project. The Issuer's share of any liquidated damages or other moneys paid by defaulting contractors or their sureties, and all proceeds of insurance compensating for damages to the Project during the period of construction, shall be deposited in the Con- struction Account to assure completion of the Project. Moneys in the Construction Account shall be secured by the depository bank in accordance with U. S.
