Trustee shall have no duty to confirm the accuracy of such facts.
When the Acquisition of the Project has been completed to the satisfaction of the
Authority or when the Authority determines that a portion of the Project will not be Acquired,
the Authority shall deliver a Certificate of Completion to the Trustee stating the fact and date of
the completion of such improvements, and stating that all the Acquisition Costs and the expenses
incidental thereto have been determined and paid (or that such claims and expenses have been
paid less specified claims which are subject to dispute and for which a retention in the Project
Fund is to be maintained in the full amount of such claims until such dispute is resolved). Upon
receipt of such Certificate of Completion, the Trustee shall transfer (but less the amount of such
retention) all remaining moneys in the Project Fund to the Note Payment Fund, to be credited to
the payment of the Notes as provided herein.
Section 3.05. Validity of Notes.
(a) The Authority has reviewed all proceedings heretofore taken relative to the
authorization of the Notes and has found, as a result of such review, and hereby finds and
determines that all acts, conditions and things required by law to exist, happen or be performed
precedent to and in the issuance of the Notes do exist, have happened and have been performed
in due time, form and manner as required by law, and the Authority is now authorized, pursuant
to each and every requirement of the Bond Law to issue the Notes in the form and manner
provided in this Indenture and the Notes shall be entitled to the benefit, protection and security of
the provisions of this Indenture.
(b) From and after the issuance of the Notes, the findings and determinations of the
Authority respecting the Notes shall be conclusive evidence of the existence of the facts so found
and determined in any action or proceeding in any court in which the validity of the Notes is at
issue, and no bona fide purchaser of any of the Notes shall be required to see to the existence of
any fact or to the performance of any condition or to the taking of any proceeding required prior
to such issuance or to the application of the proceeds of sale of the Notes. The recital contained
in the Notes that the same are issued pursuant to the Bond Law and this Indenture shall be
conclusive evidence of their validity and of the regularity of their issuance and all Notes shall be
incontestable from and after their issuance. The Notes shall be deemed to be issued, within the
meaning of this Indenture, whenever the definitive Notes (or any temporary Notes exchangeable
therefor) have been delivered to the purchaser thereof and the proceeds of sale thereof received.

When Notes are to be redeemed at the option of the Authority as set forth in this Section
4.01, the Authority shall give written notice to the Trustee of the exercise of such option at least
forty-five (45) days prior to the proposed redemption date (unless a shorter time shall be

redemption shall be given by the Trustee on behalf of the Authority by mailing a copy of a
redemption notice by first class mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 days and not more than 60 days

(and, in the case of partial redemption, the respective principal amounts) of the Notes to be
redeemed, (iv) that on the redemption date the redemption price will become due and payable
upon each such Note or portion thereof called for redemption, and that interest thereon shall
cease to accrue from and after said date, and (v) the place where such Notes are to be
surrendered for payment of the redemption price, which place of payment shall be the Trust
Office of the Trustee.
Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes or portions of Notes so to
be redeemed shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the redemption price
therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Authority shall default in the payment
of the redemption price) interest with respect to such Notes or portions of Notes shall cease to
accrue and be payable. Upon surrender of such Notes for redemption in accordance with said
notice, such Notes shall be paid by the Trustee at the redemption price. Installments of interest
due on or prior to the redemption date shall be payable as herein provided for payment of
interest. Upon surrender for any partial redemption of any Note, there shall be prepared for the

(b) Notice of redemption of Notes shall be given by the Trustee, at the expense of the

moneys sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Notes to be
redeemed and that, if such moneys shall not have been so received, said notice shall be of no
force and effect and the Trustee shall not be required to redeem such Notes. In the event that
such notice of optional redemption contains such a condition and such moneys are not so
received, the redemption shall not be made, and the Trustee shall within a reasonable time
thereafter give notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such
moneys were not so received.
Section 4.03. Effect of Redemption

due and payable at the Redemption Price specified in such notice plus interest accrued thereon to
the redemption date, interest on the Notes so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, said
Notes (or portions thereof) shall cease to be entitled to any benefit or security under this
Indenture, and the Owners of said Notes shall have no rights in respect thereof except to receive
payment of said Redemption Price and accrued interest.

surrender thereof and destroyed with a certificate of destruction delivered to or upon the Order of
the Authority.

PLEDGED REVENUES
Section 5.01. Pledge of Pledged Revenues. The principal amount of the Notes, together
with the interest thereon, shall be payable from Pledged Revenues. In addition, the Notes shall
be secured by a pledge of all of the moneys in all funds and accounts held by the Trustee
hereunder, including all amounts derived from the investment of such moneys. Such pledge shall
constitute a lien on the Pledged Revenues and such other moneys for the payment of the
principal of and interest and premium (if any) on the Notes in accordance with the terms hereof.
So long as any of the Notes are Outstanding, the Pledged Revenues and such moneys shall not be
used for any other purpose, except as set forth in this Section 5.01.
In consideration of the acceptance of the Notes by those who shall hold the same from
time to time, this Indenture shall be deemed to be and shall constitute a contract between the
Authority and the Owners from time to time of the Notes and the covenants and agreements
herein set forth to be performed by or on behalf of the Authority shall be for the equal and
proportionate benefit, security and protection of all Owners of the Notes without preference,
priority or distinction as to security or otherwise of any of the Notes over any of the others by
reason of the number or date thereof or the time of sale, execution and delivery thereof, or
otherwise for any cause whatsoever, except as expressly provided therein or herein.
The Authority hereby represents and warrants that it has not heretofore made a pledge of,
granted a lien on or security interest in, or made an assignment or sale of the Pledged Revenues
that ranks on a parity with or prior to the pledge granted hereunder, except to secure the
obligations disclosed herein that will be outstanding upon issuance of the Notes. The Authority
also hereby represents and warrants that it has not described the Pledged Revenues in a Uniform
Commercial Code financing statement that will remain effective when the Notes are issued,
except in connection with the foregoing pledges, assignments, liens, and security interests. The
Authority shall not hereafter make or suffer to exist any pledge or assignment of, lien on, or
security interest in the Pledged Revenues that ranks prior to or on a parity with the pledge
granted hereunder, or file any financing statement describing any such pledge, assignment, lien,
or security interest, except as expressly permitted under this Indenture.
The Authority will, to the extent required by law, cause all UCC financing statements or
other instruments, to be kept, recorded and filed in such manner and in such places as may be
required by law in order to create, perfect, preserve and protect fully the security of the Owners
in the Pledged Revenues and any other collateral and the rights of the Trustee. The Authority
covenants that it will do, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be done, executed,
acknowledged and delivered such further acts, instruments and transfers as may be required for
the better securing, assuring, continuing, transferring, conveying, pledging, assigning and
confirming unto the Owners or the Trustee, the Pledged Revenues and any other collateral
pledged to the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes. Except to
the extent it is exempt therefrom, the Authority will pay or cause to be paid all filing fees
incident to such filing and all expenses incident to the preparation, execution and
acknowledgment of such instruments of further assurance, and all federal or State fees and other
4815-4408-0980.2

similar fees, duties, imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the
execution and delivery of such instruments of further assurance.
Section 5.02. Application of Note Payment Fund. The Trustee shall establish and
maintain a Note Payment Fund (which the Trustee shall establish, maintain and hold in trust).
Pledged Revenues shall be deposited by the Trustee in the Note Payment Fund and shall be used
and withdrawn by the Trustee solely for the purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the
Notes as the same shall be come due and payable.
Section 5.03. Investment of Moneys in Funds and Accounts. All moneys in any of the
funds and accounts established pursuant to this Indenture shall, upon Request of the Authority
provided at least two Business Days prior to the date of investment, be invested by the Trustee,
but solely in Permitted Investments. In the absence of such Request of the Authority, the Trustee
shall invest available moneys in investments described in paragraph (h) of the definition of
Permitted Investments. In the absence of any such directions from the Authority, the Trustee
shall invest any such moneys in the money market fund set forth in the letter of authorization and
direction executed by the Authority and delivered to the Trustee. If no specific money market
fund had been specified by the Authority, the Trustee shall make a request to the Authority for
investment directions and, if no investment directions are provided within 10 days, such amount
shall be held in cash, uninvested during such 10-day period and thereafter, until specific
investment directions are provided by the Authority to the Trustee. All Permitted Investments
shall be acquired subject to the limitations as to maturities hereinafter set forth in this Section
5.07 and such additional limitations or requirements consistent with the foregoing as may be
established by Request of the Authority.
All interest, profits and other income received from the investment of moneys in any
other fund or account established pursuant to this Indenture shall be deposited when received in
the Note Fund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this paragraph, an amount
of interest received with respect to any Permitted Investment equal to the amount of accrued
interest, if any, paid as part of the purchase price of such Permitted Investment shall be credited
to the fund or account for the credit of which such Permitted Investment was acquired.
The Trustee may commingle any of the funds or accounts established pursuant to this
Indenture into a separate fund or funds for investment purposes only, provided that all funds or
accounts held by the Trustee hereunder shall be accounted for separately as required by this
Indenture. The Trustee may act as principal or agent in the making or disposing of any
investment. The Trustee may sell, or present for redemption, any Permitted Investments so
purchased whenever it shall be necessary to provide moneys to meet any required payment,
transfer, withdrawal or disbursement from the fund or account to which such Permitted
Investment is credited, and, subject to the provisions of Section 9.03, the Trustee shall not be
liable or responsible for any loss resulting from such investment.
The Authority acknowledges that, to the extent regulations of the Comptroller of the
Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grants the Authority the right to receive brokerage
confirmations of security transactions as they occur, the Authority specifically waives receipt of
such confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Trustee will furnish the Authority
periodic cash transaction statements which include detail for all investment transactions made by

-24-
the Trustee hereunder. The Trustee may make any investments hereunder through its own bond
or investment department or trust investment department, or those of its parent or any affiliate.

with any investments made by the Trustee hereunder.

preserve and protect the priority and security of the Notes the Authority shall pay from the
Pledged Revenues and discharge all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies furnished for

Pledged Revenues prior or superior to the lien of the Notes and impair the security of the Notes.
The Authority shall also pay from the Pledged Revenues all taxes and assessments or other
governmental charges lawfully levied or assessed upon or in respect of the Enterprise or upon
any part thereof or upon any of the Pledged Revenues therefrom.
Section 6.04. Refunding. The Authority covenants and agrees to issue bonds or other

are payable out of the Pledged Revenues in whole or in part.
Section 6.07. Further Assurances. The Authority will adopt, make, execute and deliver
any and all such further resolutions, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably necessary
or proper to carry out the intention or to facilitate the performance of this Indenture, and for the

in any manner whatsoever, or claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law

expressly waived by the Authority to the extent permitted by law.

test of Section 141(c) of the Code.

permit or suffer any action to be taken if the result of the same would be to cause any of the

Section 6.12. Rebate Requirement. The Authority shall take any and all actions
necessary to assure compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code, relating to the rebate of excess
investment earnings, if any, to the federal government.
Section 6.13. No Arbitrage. The Authority shall not take, or permit or suffer to be taken
by the Trustee or otherwise, any action with respect to the proceeds of the Notes which, if such
action had been reasonably expected to have been taken, or had been deliberately and
intentionally taken, on the Closing Date would have caused the Notes, to be “arbitrage bonds”
within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code.
Section 6.14. Maintenance of Tax-Exemption. The Authority shall take all actions
necessary to assure the exclusion of interest on the Notes from the gross income of the Owners
of the Notes to the same extent as such interest is permitted to be excluded from gross income

such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall
impair or exhaust any right or power consequent thereon.

Section 8.04. Trustee to Represent Owners. The Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed
(and the successive respective Owners of the Notes, by taking and holding the same, shall be
4815-4408-0980.2
-30-
conclusively deemed to have so appointed the Trustee) as trustee and true and lawful attorney-in-
fact of the Owners of the Notes for the purpose of exercising and prosecuting on their behalf
such rights and remedies as may be available to such Owners under the provisions of the Notes,
this Indenture, the Bond Law and applicable provisions of any other law. Upon the occurrence
and continuance of an Event of Default or other occasion giving rise to a right in the Trustee to
represent the Owners, the Trustee in its discretion may, and shall, upon the written request of the
Owners of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then Outstanding, (or, if more than one such request is received, the written request executed by
the Owners of the greatest percentage of Notes then Outstanding in excess of twenty-five percent
(25%)), and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction therefor, shall, proceed to protect or
enforce its rights or the rights of such Owners by such appropriate action, suit, mandamus or
other proceedings as it shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such right, at law or
in equity, either for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein, or
in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for the enforcement of any other
appropriate legal or equitable right or remedy vested in the Trustee or in such Owners under this
Indenture, the Bond Law or any other law; and upon instituting such proceeding, the Trustee
shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to the appointment of a receiver of the Pledged Revenues
and other assets pledged under this Indenture, pending such proceedings. All rights of action
under this Indenture or the Notes or otherwise may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee
without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating
thereto, and any such suit, action or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in the
name of the Trustee for the benefit and protection of all the Owners of such Notes, subject to the
provisions of this Indenture (including Section 6.02).
Section 8.05. Owners’ Direction of Proceedings. Anything in this Indenture to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
then Outstanding shall have the right, by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing
executed and delivered to the Trustee, to direct the method of conducting all remedial
proceedings taken by the Trustee hereunder, provided that such direction shall not be otherwise
than in accordance with law and the provisions of this Indenture, and that the Trustee shall have
the right to decline to follow any such direction which in the opinion of the Trustee would be
unjustly prejudicial to Owners not parties to such direction or would expose the Trustee to
liability for which it has not been indemnified to its satisfaction.
Section 8.06. Limitation on Owners’ Right to Sue. No Owner of any Note shall have the
right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, for the protection or
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, the Bond Law or any other applicable
law with respect to such Note, unless (1) such Owner shall have given to the Trustee written
notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default; (2) the Owners of not less than twenty-five per
cent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding (or, if more than one
such request is received, the written request executed by the Owners of the greatest percentage of
Notes then Outstanding in excess of twenty-five percent (25%)) shall have made written request
upon the Trustee to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such suit, action or
proceeding in its own name; (3) such Owner or said Owners shall have tendered to the Trustee
reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with
such request; and (4) the Trustee shall have refused or omitted to comply with such request for a
4815-4408-0980.2
-31-
period of sixty (60) days after such written request shall have been received by, and said tender
of indemnity shall have been made to, the Trustee.
Such notification, request, tender of indemnity and refusal or omission are hereby
declared, in every case, to be conditions precedent to the exercise by any Owner of Notes of any
remedy hereunder or under law; it being understood and intended that no one or more Owners of
Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by his or their action to affect, disturb or
prejudice the security of this Indenture or the rights of any other Owners of Notes, or to enforce
any right under this Indenture, the Bond Law, the Government Code of the State or other
applicable law with respect to the Notes, except in the manner herein provided, and that all
proceedings at law or in equity to enforce any such right shall be instituted, had and maintained
in the manner herein provided and for the benefit and protection of all Owners of the
Outstanding Notes, subject to the provisions of this Indenture (including Section 6.02).
Section 8.07. Absolute Obligation of Authority. Nothing in Section 8.06 or in any other
provision of this Indenture, or in the Notes, contained shall affect or impair the obligation of the
Authority, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal or Redemption Price of and
interest on the Notes to the respective Owners of the Notes at their respective dates of maturity,
or upon call for redemption, as herein provided, but only out of the Pledged Revenues and other
assets herein pledged therefor, or affect or impair the right of such Owners, which is also
absolute and unconditional, to enforce such payment by virtue of the contract embodied in the
Notes.
Section 8.08. Termination of Proceedings. In case any proceedings taken by the Trustee
or any one or more Owners on account of any Event of Default shall have been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee or the Owners,
then in every such case the Authority, the Trustee and the Owners, subject to any determination
in such proceedings, shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, severally
and respectively, and all rights, remedies, powers and duties of the Authority, the Trustee and the
Owners shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.
Section 8.09. Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the Trustee or to the Owners of the Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or
remedies, and each and every such remedy, to the extent permitted by law, shall be cumulative
and in addition to any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise.
Section 8.10. No Waiver of Default. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any
Owner of the Notes to exercise any right or power arising upon the occurrence of any default
shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or
an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by this Indenture to the Trustee or to
the Owners of the Notes may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed

ARTICLE IX
THE TRUSTEE
Section 9.01. Appointment of Trustee; Duties, Immunities and Liabilities of Trustee.
(a) The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. is hereby appointed to serve
as Trustee under this Indenture. By execution hereof, the Trustee accepts such appointment.
(b) The Trustee shall, prior to an Event of Default, and after the curing or waiver of
all Events of Default which may have occurred, perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Indenture. The Trustee shall, during the existence of any Event of
Default (which has not been cured or waived), exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it
by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person
would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.
(c) The Authority may remove the Trustee at any time unless an Event of Default
shall have occurred and then be continuing, and shall remove the Trustee if at any time requested
to do so by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed by the Owners of not less
than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding (or their attorneys
duly authorized in writing) or if at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with subsection (f) of this Section 9.01, or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged
a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take control or charge of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the
purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, in each case by giving written notice of
such removal to the Trustee, and thereupon shall appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in
writing.
(d) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving ninety days prior written notice of
such resignation to the Authority and by giving the Owners notice of such resignation by mail to
the addresses shown on the Note Registration Books. Upon receiving such notice of resignation,
the Authority shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing.
(e) Any removal or resignation of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee
shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee. If no successor
Trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted appointment within forty-five (45) days of
giving notice of removal or notice of resignation as aforesaid, the resigning Trustee or any
Owner (on behalf of himself and all other Owners) may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee, and such court may thereupon, after such
notice (if any) as it may deem proper, appoint such successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee
appointed under this Indenture, shall signify its acceptance of such appointment by executing and
delivering to the Authority and to its predecessor Trustee a written acceptance thereof, and
thereupon such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become
vested with all the moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of
such predecessor Trustee, with like effect as if originally named Trustee herein; but, nevertheless
at the Request of the Authority or the request of the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee
4815-4408-0980.2
-33-
shall execute and deliver any and all instruments of conveyance or further assurance and do such
other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting in and
confirming to such successor Trustee all the right, title and interest of such predecessor Trustee
in and to any property held by it under this Indenture and shall pay over, transfer, assign and
deliver to the successor Trustee any money or other property subject to the trusts and conditions
herein set forth. Upon request of the successor Trustee, the Authority shall execute and deliver
any and all instruments as may be reasonably required for more fully and certainly vesting in and
confirming to such successor Trustee all such moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts,
duties and obligations. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in
this subsection, the Authority shall mail a notice of the succession of such Trustee to the trusts
hereunder to the Owners at the addresses shown on the registration books maintained by the
Trustee. If the Authority fails to mail such notice within fifteen (15) days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed
at the expense of the Authority.
(f) Any Trustee appointed under the provisions of this Section 9.01 in succession to
the Trustee shall be a trust company, national banking association or bank having the powers of a
trust company having a corporate trust office in the State, having a combined capital and surplus
of at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000), and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority. If such bank, national banking association or trust company publishes a
report of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or
examining authority above referred to, then for the purpose of this subsection the combined
capital and surplus of such bank, national banking association or trust company shall be deemed
to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so
published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this subsection (f), the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect specified in this Section 9.01.
Section 9.02. Merger or Consolidation. Any company or association into which the
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any company or
association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which it shall be a party or
any company or association to which the Trustee may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its
corporate trust business, provided such company or association shall be eligible under
subsection (f) of Section 9.01, shall be the successor to such Trustee, as the case may be, without
the execution or filing of any paper or any further act, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Section 9.03. Liability of Trustee.
(a) The recitals of facts herein and in the Notes contained shall be taken as statements
of the Authority, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same, or
makes any representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, or
shall incur any responsibility in respect thereof, other than in connection with the duties or
obligations herein or in the Notes assigned to or imposed upon it. The Trustee shall, however, be
responsible for its representations contained in its certificate of authentication on the Notes. The
Trustee shall not be liable in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, except for
its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee may become the owner of Notes with the
4815-4408-0980.2
-34-
same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, and, to the extent permitted by law, may act as
depository for and permit any of its officers or directors to act as a member of, or in any other
capacity with respect to, any committee formed to protect the rights of Owners, whether or not
such committee shall represent the Owners of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then
Outstanding.
(b) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a
responsible officer, unless the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.
(c) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Owners of not less than twenty-
five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding relating to
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Indenture.
(d) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers
vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Owners, pursuant to
the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Owners shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or
thereby.
(e) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and
believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by
this Indenture.
(f) No provision in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to risk or expend its own
funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder
if repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to
it. The Trustee shall provide the Authority with seven days’ notice prior to making any advance
of its own funds hereunder, and, if the Authority does not provide moneys in the amount needed,
the Trustee shall be entitled to interest on the amounts advanced at a rate equal to the then 3-
month certificates of deposit rate (by reference to the Wall Street Journal); provided that no such
prior notice shall need be given and such interest on amounts advanced shall accrue from the
date of any such advance following the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder.
(g) The Trustee makes no representation, express or implied as to the title, value,
design, compliance with specifications or legal requirements, quality, durability, operation,
condition, merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose or fitness for the use
contemplated by the Authority of the Enterprise.
(h) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default
hereunder unless and until it shall have actual knowledge thereof.
(i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to any information,
statement or recital in any official statement, offering memorandum or other disclosure material
prepared or distributed with respect to the Notes.
4815-4408-0980.2
-35-
(j) The immunities extended to the Trustee also extend to its directors, officers,
employees and agents.
(k) The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall
not be construed as a duty.
(l) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform any of its
duties through attorneys, agents and receivers and shall not be answerable for the same if
appointed by it with reasonable care.
(m) The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including
funds transfer instructions (“Instructions”) given pursuant to this Indenture and delivered using
Electronic Means (“Electronic Means” shall mean the following communications methods: e-
mail, facsimile transmission, secure electronic transmission containing applicable authorization
codes, passwords and/or authentication keys issued by the Trustee, or another method or system
specified by the Trustee as available for use in connection with its services hereunder); provided,
however, that the Authority shall provide to the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers
with the authority to provide such Instructions (“Authorized Officers”) and containing specimen
signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the
Authority whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Authority elects to
give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act
upon such Instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed
controlling. The Authority understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity
of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that
directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency
certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Authority
shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the
Trustee and that the Authority and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the
use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or
authentication keys upon receipt by the Authority. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses,
costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance
with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a
subsequent written instruction. The Authority agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the
use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation the
risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by
third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various
methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of
transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Authority; (iii) that the security
procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to
it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and
circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or
unauthorized use of the security procedures.
(n) The Trustee shall not be liable to the parties hereto or deemed in breach or default
hereunder if and to the extent its performance hereunder is prevented by reason of force majeure.
The term “force majeure” means an occurrence that is beyond the control of the Trustee and
could not have been avoided by exercising due care. Force majeure shall include, but not be
4815-4408-0980.2
-36-
limited to, acts of God, terrorism, war, riots, strikes, fire, floods, earthquakes, epidemics or other
similar occurrences.
(o) The Trustee shall not be responsible for or accountable to anyone for the
subsequent use or application of any moneys which shall be released or withdrawn in accordance
with the provisions hereof.
Section 9.04. Right of Trustee to Rely on Documents. The Trustee shall be protected in
acting upon any notice, resolution, request, requisition, consent, order, certificate, report,
opinion, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties. The Trustee may consult with counsel, who may be
counsel of or to the Authority, with regard to legal questions, and the opinion of such counsel
shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered
by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance therewith.
Whenever in the administration of the trusts imposed upon it by this Indenture the
Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking
or suffering any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein
specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a
Certificate of the Authority, and such Certificate shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any
action taken or suffered in good faith under the provisions of this Indenture in reliance upon such
Certificate, but in its discretion the Trustee may, in lieu thereof, accept other evidence of such
matter or may require such additional evidence as to it may seem reasonable.
Section 9.05. Preservation and Inspection of Documents. All documents received by the
Trustee under the provisions of this Indenture shall be retained in its possession and shall be
subject during regular business hours with reasonable prior notice to the inspection of the
Authority and any Owner, and their agents and representatives duly authorized in writing, at the
Trust Office of the Trustee and under reasonable conditions.
Section 9.06. Compensation of Trustee. The Authority covenants to pay to the Trustee
from time to time, from available moneys of the Authority, and the Trustee shall be entitled to,
reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of
the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee, and the Authority will pay or reimburse the
Trustee upon its request, from available moneys of the Authority, for all expenses, disbursements
and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this
Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its
counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or
advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith.
Section 9.07. Indemnification. The Authority covenants to indemnify the Trustee and to
hold it harmless against any loss, liability, expenses or advance, including fees and expenses of
counsel and other experts, incurred or made without negligence or bad faith on the part of the
Trustee, in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder by the
Trustee, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability arising
under this Indenture. Such indemnification shall survive the termination or discharge of this
Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

MODIFICATION OR AMENDMENT OF THE INDENTURE
Section 10.01. Amendments Permitted.
(a) This Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Authority and of the Owners
of the Notes and of the Trustee may be modified or amended from time to time and at any time
by a Supplemental Indenture, which the Authority and the Trustee may execute when the written
consent of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding
shall have been filed with the Trustee; provided that if such modification or amendment will, by
its terms, not take effect so long as any Notes of any particular maturity remain Outstanding, the
consent of the Owners of such Notes shall not be required and such Notes shall not be deemed to
be Outstanding for the purpose of any calculation of Notes Outstanding under this Section 10.01.
No such modification or amendment shall (1) extend the fixed maturity of any Note, or reduce
the amount of principal thereof, provided in this Indenture for the payment of any Note, or
reduce the rate of interest thereon, or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce
any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, without the consent of the Owner of each
Note so affected, or (2) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Notes the consent of the Owners of
which is required to effect any such modification or amendment, or permit the creation of any
lien on the Pledged Revenues and other assets pledged under this Indenture prior to or on a parity
with the lien created by this Indenture, or deprive the Owners of the Notes of the lien created by
this Indenture on such Pledged Revenues and other assets (except as expressly provided in this
Indenture), or terminate the insurance of the Notes, without the consent of the Owners of all of
the Notes then Outstanding. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Owners to approve
the particular form of any Supplemental Indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall
approve the substance thereof. Promptly after the execution by the Authority and the Trustee of
any Supplemental Indenture pursuant to this subsection (a), the Trustee shall mail a notice,
setting forth in general terms the substance of such Supplemental Indenture to the Owners at the
addresses shown on the Note Registration Books. Any failure to give such notice, or any defect
therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such Supplemental
Indenture.
(b) This Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Authority, of the Trustee and
of the Owners of the Notes may also be modified or amended from time to time and at any time
by a Supplemental Indenture, which the Authority and the Trustee may execute without the
consent of any Owners, but only to the extent permitted by law and only for any one or more of
the following purposes:
(i) to add to the covenants and agreements of the Authority in this Indenture
contained other covenants and agreements thereafter to be observed, to pledge or assign
additional security for the Notes (or any portion thereof), or to surrender any right or
power herein reserved to or conferred upon the Authority, provided, that no such
covenant, agreement, pledge, assignment or surrender shall materially adversely affect
the interests of the Owners of the Notes;
4815-4408-0980.2
-38-
(ii) to make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity,
inconsistency or omission, or of curing or correcting any defective provision, contained
in this Indenture, or in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture, as the
Authority may deem necessary or desirable and not inconsistent with this Indenture, and
which shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Owners of the Notes; or
(iii) to make such additions, deletions or modifications as may be necessary to
assure exclusion from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation of interest on
the Notes.
(c) No such Supplemental Indenture shall modify any of the rights or obligations of
the Trustee without its prior written consent thereto; nor shall the Trustee be required to consent
to any such Supplemental Indenture which affects its rights or obligations hereunder.
(d) In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental
indenture permitted by this Article or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this
Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an
opinion of counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture and complies with the terms hereof.
Section 10.02. Effect of Supplemental Indenture. From and after the time any
Supplemental Indenture becomes effective pursuant to this Article X, this Indenture shall be
deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith, and the respective rights, duties
and obligations under this Indenture of the Authority, the Trustee and all Owners of Notes
Outstanding shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all
respects to such modification and amendment, and all the terms and conditions of any such
Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture
for any and all purposes.
Section 10.03. Endorsement of Notes; Preparation of New Notes. Notes delivered after
any Supplemental Indenture becomes effective pursuant to this Article X may, and if the Trustee
so determines shall, bear a notation by endorsement or otherwise in form approved by the
Authority and the Trustee as to any modification or amendment provided for in such
Supplemental Indenture, and, in that case, upon demand of the Owner of any Note Outstanding
at the time of such execution and presentation of his Note for the purpose at the Trust Office of
the Trustee or at such additional offices as the Trustee may select and designate for that purpose,
a suitable notation shall be made on such Note. If the Supplemental Indenture shall so provide,
new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Authority and the Trustee, to any
modification or amendment contained in such Supplemental Indenture, shall be prepared and
executed by the Authority and authenticated by the Trustee, and upon demand of the Owners of
any Notes then Outstanding shall be exchanged at the Trust Office of the Trustee, without cost to
any Owner, for Notes then Outstanding, upon surrender for cancellation of such Notes, in equal
aggregate principal amounts of the same maturity.
Section 10.04. Amendment of Particular Notes. The provisions of this Article X shall not
prevent any Owner from accepting any amendment as to the particular Notes held by him,
provided that due notation thereof is made on such Notes.

ARTICLE XI
DEFEASANCE
Section 11.01. Discharge of Indenture. Any or all of the Notes may be paid by the
Authority in any of the following ways; provided that the Authority also pays or causes to be
paid any other sums payable hereunder by the Authority:
(a) by paying or causing to be paid the principal or Redemption Price of and interest
on such Notes Outstanding, as and when the same become due and payable;
(b) by depositing with the Trustee, in trust, at or before maturity, money or Permitted
Investments described in paragraph (a) of the definition thereof (“Defeasance Obligations”) in
the necessary amount (as provided in Section 11.03) to pay or redeem such Notes Outstanding;
or
(c) by delivering to the Trustee, for cancellation by it, such Notes Outstanding.
If the Authority shall pay all Notes Outstanding and shall also pay or cause to be paid all
other sums payable hereunder by the Authority, then and in that case, at the election of the
Authority (evidenced by a Certificate of the Authority, filed with the Trustee, signifying the
intention of the Authority to discharge all such indebtedness and this Indenture), and
notwithstanding that any Notes shall not have been surrendered for payment, this Indenture and
the pledge of Pledged Revenues and other assets made under this Indenture and all covenants,
agreements and other obligations of the Authority under this Indenture shall cease, terminate,
become void and be completely discharged and satisfied, except only as provided in Section
11.02. In such event, upon Request of the Authority, the Trustee shall cause an accounting for
such period or periods as may be requested by the Authority to be prepared and filed with the
Authority and shall execute and deliver to the Authority all such instruments as may be
necessary or desirable to evidence such discharge and satisfaction, and the Trustee shall pay
over, transfer, assign or deliver to the Authority all moneys or securities or other property held
by it pursuant to this Indenture which are not required for the payment or redemption of Notes
not theretofore surrendered for such payment or redemption.
Section 11.02. Discharge of Liability on Notes. Upon the deposit with the Trustee, in
trust, at or before maturity, of money or securities in the necessary amount (as provided in
Section 11.10) to pay or redeem any Outstanding Note (whether upon or prior to its maturity or
the redemption date of such Note), provided that, if such Note is to be redeemed prior to
maturity, notice of such redemption shall have been given as in Article IV provided or provision
satisfactory to the Trustee shall have been made for the giving of such notice, then all liability of
the Authority in respect of such Note shall cease, terminate and be completely discharged, except
only that thereafter the Owner thereof shall be entitled to payment of the principal of and interest
to the maturity or redemption date on such Note by the Authority, and the Authority shall remain
liable for such payment, but only out of such money or securities deposited with the Trustee as
aforesaid for such payment, provided further, however, that the provisions of Section 11.04 shall
apply in all events.
4815-4408-0980.2
-40-
The Authority may at any time surrender to the Trustee for cancellation by it any Notes
previously issued and delivered which the Authority may have acquired in any manner
whatsoever, and such Notes, upon such surrender and cancellation, shall be deemed to be paid
and retired.
Section 11.03. Deposit of Money or Securities with Trustee. Whenever in this Indenture
it is provided or permitted that there be deposited with or held in trust by the Trustee money or
Defeasance Obligations in the necessary amount to pay or redeem any Notes, the money or
Defeasance Obligations so to be deposited or held may include money or Defeasance
Obligations held by the Trustee in the funds and accounts established pursuant to this Indenture
and shall be:
(a) lawful money of the United States of America in an amount equal to the principal
amount of such Notes and all unpaid interest thereon to maturity, except that, in the case of
Notes which are to be redeemed prior to maturity and in respect of which notice of such
redemption shall have been given as in Article IV provided or provision satisfactory to the
Trustee shall have been made for the giving of such notice, the amount to be deposited or held
shall be the principal amount or Redemption Price of such Notes and all unpaid interest thereon
to the redemption date; or
(b) Defeasance Obligations the principal of and interest on which when due will
provide money sufficient, in the opinion of an Independent Accountant, to pay the principal or
Redemption Price of and all unpaid interest to maturity, or to the redemption date, as the case
may be, on the Notes to be paid or redeemed, as such principal or Redemption Price and interest
become due, provided that, in the case of Notes which are to be redeemed prior to the maturity
thereof, notice of such redemption shall have been given as in Article IV provided or provision
satisfactory to the Trustee shall have been made for the giving of such notice; provided, in each
case, that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed (by the terms of this Indenture or by
Request of the Authority) to apply such money to the payment of such principal or Redemption
Price and interest with respect to such Notes.
The Notes shall be deemed Outstanding under this Indenture unless and until they are in
fact paid and retired or the above criteria are met.
Section 11.04. Payment of Notes After Discharge of Indenture. Notwithstanding any
provisions of this Indenture, any moneys held by the Trustee in trust for the payment of the
principal or redemption premium of, or interest on, any Notes and remaining unclaimed for two
years after the principal of all of the Notes has become due and payable (whether at maturity or
upon call for redemption or by acceleration as provided in this Indenture), if such moneys were
so held at such date, or two years after the date of deposit of such moneys if deposited after said
date when all of the Notes became due and payable, shall be repaid to the Authority free from the
trusts created by this Indenture, and all liability of the Trustee with respect to such moneys shall
thereupon cease; provided, however, that before the repayment of such moneys to the Authority
as aforesaid, the Trustee, as the case may be, may (at the cost of the Authority) first mail a
notice, in such form as may be deemed appropriate by the Trustee, to the Owners of the Notes so
payable and not presented and with respect to the provisions relating to the repayment to the
Authority of the moneys held for the payment thereof.

ARTICLE XII
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 12.01. Liability of Authority Limited to Pledged Revenues. Notwithstanding

agent, or of the holding by any person of Notes transferable by delivery, shall be sufficient for
any purpose of this Indenture and shall be conclusive in favor of the Trustee and of the Authority
if made in the manner provided in this Section 13.08.
The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such request, consent or other
instrument or writing may be proved by the certificate of any notary public or other officer of

execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness of such execution duly sworn to before such
notary public or other officer.

Authority in accordance therewith or reliance thereon.
Section 12.09. Disqualified Notes. In determining whether the Owners of the requisite
aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any demand, request, direction, consent
or waiver under this Indenture, Notes which are owned or held by or for the account of the
Authority or by any other obligor on the Notes, or by any person directly or indirectly controlling
or controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, the Authority or any other
obligor on the Notes, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of
any such determination. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded
as Outstanding for the purposes of this Section 13.09 if the pledgee shall establish to the
satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to vote such Notes and that the pledgee is not a
person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or under direct or indirect common
control with, the Authority or any other obligor on the Notes. In case of a dispute as to such
right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the
Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Authority shall specify, in a certificate to the Trustee,
those Notes disqualified pursuant to this Section 13.09 and the Trustee may conclusively rely on
such certificate.
Section 12.10. Money Held for Particular Notes. The money held by the Trustee for the
payment of the interest, principal or Redemption Price due on any date with respect to particular
Notes (or portions of Notes in the case of registered Notes redeemed in part only) shall, on and
after such date and pending such payment, be set aside on its books and held in trust by it
without liability for interest thereon for the Owners of the Notes entitled thereto, subject,
however, to the provisions of Section 11.04.
Section 12.11. Funds and Accounts. Any fund required by this Indenture to be established
and maintained by the Trustee may be established and maintained in the accounting records of
the Trustee, either as a fund or an account, and may, for the purposes of such records, any audits
thereof and any reports or statements with respect thereto, be treated either as a fund or as an
account; but all such records with respect to all such funds shall at all times be maintained in
accordance with customary standards of the corporate trust industry, to the extent practicable,
and with due regard for the protection of the security of the Notes and the rights of every holder
thereof.
Section 12.12. Article and Section Headings and References. The headings or titles of the
several Articles and Sections hereof, and any table of contents appended to copies hereof, shall

adversely affect the Issuer or its ability to perform its duties and obligations under the
Documents, and the execution and delivery of the Documents, the execution of the
Indenture and the issuance of the Notes and compliance with the provisions of each will
not conflict materially with or constitute a material breach of or default under any
applicable law or administrative regulation of the State or under any certificate,
agreement or other instrument to which the Issuer is a party or is otherwise subject,
which breach or default would materially and adversely affect the Issuer or its ability to
perform its duties under the Documents and Notes.
