NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF THE
VILLAGE OF KEY BISCAYNE, FLORIDA:
SECTION 1. AUTHORIZATION OF BONDS. Pursuant to the provisions of this Bond
Resolution and the Ordinance, stormwater utility revenue bonds of the Village to be designated
"Village of Key Biscayne, Florida, Stormwater Utility Revenue Bonds, Series 1999" (the "Bonds"),
are hereby authorized to be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $7,200,000 for the purpose
of providing funds to pay the principal of the Notes in order to provide permanent financing for the
Project.
SECTION 2. TERMS OF THE BONDS. The Bonds shall be issued in fully registered form
without coupons. The principal of and interest on the Bonds shall be payable when due in lawful
money of the United States of America by wire transfer or by certified check delivered on or prior
to the date due to the registered Owners of the Bonds ("Owners") or their legal representatives at the
addresses of the Owners as they appear on the registration books of the Village.
The Bonds shall be dated the date of their issuance and delivery and shall be initially issued
as one Bond in the denomination of $7,200,000. The Bonds shall mature on October 1, 2019.
Subject to adjustment as provided below, the Bonds shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal balance from their date of issuance payable quarterly on the first day of each January, April,
July and October (the "Interest Payment Dates"), commencing April 1, 1999, at an interest rate equal
to 4.13% per annum.
Interest on the Bonds shall be computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed using
a 365 or 366 -day year.
Adjustment of Interest Rate Upon Determination of Taxability. In the event a Determination
of Taxability shall have occurred, the rate of interest on the Bonds shall be adjusted to a rate equal
to a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is equal to the interest rate otherwise borne by the Bonds,
and (ii) the denominator of which is equal to one (1) minus the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in
DMS/B.LEGISL/189500-3/13524.004
2
effect as of the date of such Determination of Taxability (the "Adjusted Interest Rate"), as of and
from the date such determination would be applicable with respect to the Bonds (the "Accrual
Date"). The Village shall on the next interest payment date pay to the Owners of the Bonds or any
former Owners of the Bonds as may be appropriately allocated, an amount equal to the sum of (1)
the difference between (A) the total interest that would have accrued on the Bonds at the Adjusted
Interest Rate from the Accrual Date to the date of the Determination of Taxability, and (B) the actual
interest paid by the Village on the Bonds from the Accrual Date to the date of the Determination of
Taxability, and (2) any interest and penalties required to be paid as a result of any additional State
of Florida and federal income taxes imposed upon such Owner arising as a result of such
Determination of Taxability. From and after the Determination of Taxability, the Bonds shall
continue to bear interest at the Adjusted Interest Rate for the period such determination continues
to be applicable with respect to the Bonds. This adjustment shall survive payment of the Bonds until
such time as the federal statute of limitations under which the interest on the Bonds could be
declared taxable under the Code shall have expired. A "Determination of Taxability" shall mean (i)
the issuance by the Internal Revenue Service of a statutory notice of deficiency or other written
notification which holds in effect that the interest payable on the Bonds is includable for federal
income tax purposes in the gross income of the Owners thereof, which notice or notification is not
disputed by either the Village or any Owners of the Bonds, or (ii) a determination by a court of
competent jurisdiction that the interest payable on the Bonds is includable for federal income tax
purposes in the gross income of the Owners thereof, which determination either is final and non -
appealable or is not appealed within the requisite time period for appeal, or (iii) the admission in
writing by the Village to the effect that interest on Bonds is includable for federal income tax
purposes in the gross income of the Owners thereof.
Adjustment of Interest Rate for Change in Maximum Corporate Tax Rate. In the event that
the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate decreases or increases from thirty-five percent (35%), the interest
rate otherwise borne by the Bonds shall be adjusted to the product obtained by multiplying the
interest rate otherwise borne by the Bonds by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is equal to one
(1) minus the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in effect as of the date of adjustment, and (ii) the
denominator of which is equal to 0.65. The interest rate otherwise borne by the Bonds shall be
adjusted automatically as of the effective date of each change in the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate.
As used herein:
(1) "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any
Treasury Regulations, whether temporary, proposed or final, promulgated thereunder or applicable
thereto; and
(2) "Maximum Corporate Tax Rate" means, as of any date of determination, the
highest marginal tax rate (expressed as a decimal) applicable to the taxable income of corporations
(as currently set forth in Section 11 of the Code) without regard to any increase in tax designated to
normalize the rate for all income at the highest marginal tax rate or to phase out the benefit of
graduated tax rates and impose a flat -tax at a specified rate (for example, the tax imposed by the last
DMS/B.LEGISL/189500-3/13524.004
3
two sentences of Section 11(b)(1) of the Code as in effect on the original issue date of the Bonds),
which rate on the original issue date of the Bonds is 35.
The principal of the Bonds shall be payable in twenty-one (21) annual installments on each
October 1, commencing October 1, 1999. The amount of each such installment shall be as follows:
Principal
Year Installment Due
1999 $135,000

2001 130,000
2002 185,000

2004 205,000
2005 215,000
2006 225,000
2007 235,000
2008 350,000
2009 365,000
2010 385,000
2011 405,000
2012 425,000
2013 445,000
2014 465,000
2015 490,000
2016 515,000
2017 540,000
2018 570,000
2019 595,000
The Bonds are subject to prepayment in whole or in part at any time on at a price of par plus
accrued interest to the date of prepayment, upon written notice to the Owners thereof given by the
Village at least three (3) days prior to the date fixed for prepayment. Partial prepayments shall be
applied in inverse order of the maturity of principal installments.
THE BONDS SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE AN INDEBTEDNESS OF
THE VILLAGE OR A PLEDGE OF THE FAITH AND CREDIT OF THE VILLAGE, BUT SHALL
BE PAYABLE EXCLUSIVELY FROM THE STORMWATER UTILITY FEES AND FROM
LEGALLY AVAILABLE NON -AD VALOREM REVENUES OF THE VILLAGE, BOTH AS
DEFINED IN THIS RESOLUTION. THE ISSUANCE OF THE BONDS SHALL NOT DIRECTLY
OR INDIRECTLY OR CONTINGENTLY OBLIGATE THE VILLAGE TO LEVY OR TO
PLEDGE ANY FORM OF TAXATION WHATEVER THEREFOR NOR SHALL THE BONDS
CONSTITUTE A CHARGE, LIEN, OR ENCUMBRANCE, LEGAL OR EQUITABLE, UPON
DMS/S.LEGISL/189500-3/13524.004

ANY PROPERTY OF THE VILLAGE, AND THE HOLDERS OF THE BONDS SHALL HAVE
NO RECOURSE TO THE POWER OF TAXATION.
SECTION 3. EXECUTION OF BONDS. The Bonds shall be signed in the name of the
Village by the Mayor or Vice Mayor and the Village Clerk, and its seal shall be affixed thereto or
imprinted or reproduced thereon. The signatures of the Mayor or Vice Mayor and Village Clerk on
the Bonds may be manual or facsimile signatures, provided that the signature of one of such officers
shall be a manual signature. In case any one or more of the officers who shall have signed or sealed
any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officer of the Village before the Bonds so signed and sealed
shall have been actually sold and delivered, such Bonds may nevertheless be sold and delivered as
herein provided and may be issued as if the person who signed and sealed such Bonds had not ceased
to hold such office. Any Bonds may be signed and sealed on behalf of the Village by such person
as at the actual time of the execution of such Bonds shall hold the proper office, although at the date
of such Bonds such person may not have held such office or may not have been so authorized.
SECTION 4. NEGOTIABILITY, REGISTRATION AND CANCELLATION. The Village
shall serve as Registrar and as such shall keep books for the registration of Bonds and for the
registration of transfers of Bonds. Bonds may be transferred or exchanged upon the registration
books kept by the Village, upon delivery to the Village, together with written instructions as to the
details of the transfer or exchange, of such Bonds in form satisfactory to the Village and with
guaranty of signatures satisfactory to the Village, along with the social security number or federal
employer identification number of any transferee and, if the transferee is a trust, the name and social
security or federal tax identification numbers of the settlor and beneficiaries of the trust, the date of
the trust and the name of the trustee. Bonds may be exchanged for one or more Bonds of the same
aggregate principal amount and maturity and in denominations in integral multiples of $250,000
(except that an odd lot is permitted to complete the outstanding principal balance). No transfer or
exchange of any Bond shall be effective until entered on the registration books maintained by the
Village.
The Village may deem and treat the person in whose name any Bond shall be registered upon
the books kept by the Village as the absolute Owner of such Bond, whether such Bond shall be
overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of and
interest on such Bond as they become due and for all other purposes. All such payments so made to
any such Owner or upon his order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability
upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
In all cases in which Bonds are transferred or exchanged in accordance with this Section, the
Village shall execute and deliver Bonds in accordance with the provisions of this Resolution. All
Bonds surrendered in any such exchanges or transfers shall forthwith be cancelled by the Village.
There shall be no charge for any such exchange or transfer of Bonds, but the Village may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to pay any tax, fee or other governmental charge required to be paid with
respect to such exchange or transfer. The Village shall not be required to transfer or exchange Bonds
for a period of 15 days next preceding an Interest Payment Date on such Bonds.
DMS/B.LEGISL/189500-3/13524.004

All Bonds, the principal and interest of which has been fully paid, either at or prior to
maturity, shall be delivered to the Village when such payment is made, and shall thereupon be
cancelled.
In case a portion but not all of an outstanding Bond shall be prepaid, such Bond shall not be
surrendered in exchange for a new Bond, but the Village shall make a notation indicating the
remaining outstanding principal of the Bonds upon the registration books. The Bond so redesignated
shall have the remaining principal as provided on such registration books and shall be deemed to
have been issued in the denomination of the outstanding principal balance, which shall be an
authorized denomination.
SECTION 5. BONDS MUTILATED, DESTROYED, STOLEN OR LOST. In case any
Bond shall become mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Village may in its discretion issue
and deliver a new Bond of like tenor as the Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in the case
of a mutilated Bond, in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Bond upon surrender of such
mutilated Bond or in the case of a destroyed, stolen or lost Bond in lieu of and substitution for the
Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, upon the Owner furnishing the Village proof of his ownership thereof,
satisfactory proof of loss or destruction thereof and satisfactory indemnity, complying with such
other reasonable regulations and conditions as the Village may prescribe and paying such expenses
as the Village may incur. The Village shall cancel all mutilated Bonds that are surrendered. If any
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Bond shall have matured or be about to mature, instead of issuing
a substitute Bond, the Village may pay the principal of and interest on such Bond upon the Owner
complying with the requirements of this paragraph.
Any such duplicate Bonds issued pursuant to this section shall constitute original, additional
contractual obligations of the Village 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 extent as all other Bonds issued hereunder.
SECTION 6. FORM OF BONDS. The text of the Bonds shall be of substantially the
following tenor, with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be necessary and desirable
and authorized or permitted by this Resolution.

STORMWATER UTILITY REVENUE BONDS
SERIES 1999
Registered Owner:
Principal Amount: Dollars
KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that the Village of Key Biscayne, Florida (the
"Village"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the Registered Owner shown above, or
registered assigns, from the sources hereinafter mentioned, the Principal Amount specified above.
Subject to the rights of prior prepayment described in this Bond, this Bond shall mature on October
1, 2019.
This Bond is issued under authority of and in full compliance with the Constitution and laws
of the State of Florida, including particularly Part II of Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, as amended,
the Charter of the Village, Ordinance No. 98-9 duly adopted by the Village Council of the Village
on October 27, 1998 (the "Ordinance") and Resolution No. 99- adopted on January 26, 1999
(the "Resolution", and collectively with the Ordinance, the "Bond Ordinance"), and is subject to the
terms of said Bond Ordinance. This Bond is issued for the purpose of providing funds to pay the
principal of the Village's $7,200,000 Stormwater Utility Revenue Bond Anticipation Notes, Series
1995. This Bond shall be payable only from the sources identified herein.
Subject to adjustment as provided below, this Bond shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal balance from its date of issuance payable quarterly on the first day of each January, April,
July and October (the "Interest Payment Dates"), commencing April 1, 1999, at an interest rate equal
to 4.13% per annum.
Interest on this Bond shall be computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed using
a 365 or 365 -day year.
Adjustment of Interest Rate Upon Determination of Taxability. In the event a Determination
of Taxability shall have occurred, the rate of interest on the Bonds shall be adjusted to a rate equal
to a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is equal to the interest rate otherwise borne by the Bonds,
and (ii) the denominator of which is equal to one (1) minus the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in
effect as of the date of such Determination of Taxability (the "Adjusted Interest Rate"), as of and
DMS/B.LEGISL/189500-3/13524.004

from the date such determination would be applicable with respect to the Bonds (the "Accrual
Date"). The Village shall on the next interest payment date pay to the Owners of the Bonds or any
former Owners of the Bonds as may be appropriately allocated, an amount equal to the sum of (1)
the difference between (A) the total interest that would have accrued on the Bonds at the Adjusted
Interest Rate from the Accrual Date to the date of the Determination of Taxability, and (B) the actual
interest paid by the Village on the Bonds from the Accrual Date to the date of the Determination of
Taxability, and (2) any interest and penalties required to be paid as a result of any additional State
of Florida and federal income taxes imposed upon such Owner arising as a result of such
Determination of Taxability. From and after the Determination of Taxability, the Bonds shall
continue to bear interest at the Adjusted Interest Rate for the period such determination continues
to be applicable with respect to the Bonds. This adjustment shall survive payment of the Bonds until
such time as the federal statute of limitations under which the interest on the Bonds could be
declared taxable under the Code shall have expired. A "Determination of Taxability" shall mean (i)
the issuance by the Internal Revenue Service of a statutory notice of deficiency or other written
notification which holds in effect that the interest payable on the Bonds is includable for federal
income tax purposes in the gross income of the Owners thereof, which notice or notification is not
disputed by either the Village or any Owners of the Bonds, or (ii) a determination by a court of
competent jurisdiction that the interest payable on the Bonds is includable for federal income tax
purposes in the gross income of the Owners thereof, which determination either is final and non -
appealable or is not appealed within the requisite time period for appeal, or (iii) the admission in
writing by the Village to the effect that interest on Bonds is includable for federal income tax
purposes in the gross income of the Owners thereof.
Adjustment of Interest Rate for Change in Maximum Corporate Tax Rate. In the event that
the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate decreases or increases from thirty-five percent (35%), the interest
rate otherwise borne by the Bonds shall be adjusted to the product obtained by multiplying the
interest rate otherwise borne by the Bonds by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is equal to one
(1) minus the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in effect as of the date of adjustment, and (ii) the
denominator of which is equal to 0.65. The interest rate otherwise borne by the Bonds shall be
adjusted automatically as of the effective date of each change in the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate.
As used herein:
(1) "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any
Treasury Regulations, whether temporary, proposed or final, promulgated thereunder or applicable
thereto; and
(2) "Maximum Corporate Tax Rate" means, as of any date of determination, the
highest marginal tax rate (expressed as a decimal) applicable to the taxable income of corporations
(as currently set forth in Section 11 of the Code) without regard to any increase in tax designated to
normalize the rate for all income at the highest marginal tax rate or to phase out the benefit of
graduated tax rates and impose a flat -tax at a specified rate (for example, the tax imposed by the last
two sentences of Section 11(b)(1) of the Code as in effect on the original issue date of the Bonds),
DMS/B.LEGISL/189500-3/13524.004

which rate on the original issue date of the Bonds is 35.
The principal of this Bond shall be payable in twenty-one (21) annual installments on each
October 1, commencing October 1, 1999. The amount of each such installment shall be as follows:
Principal
Year Installment Due
1999 $135,000

The principal of and interest on this Bond are payable in lawful money of the United States
of America by wire transfer or by certified check delivered on or prior to the date due to the
registered Owner or his legal representative at the address of the Owner as it appears on the
registration books of the Village.
This Bond is subject to prepayment in whole or in part at any time at a price of par plus
accrued interest to the date of prepayment, upon written notice to the Owners thereof given by the
Village at least three (3) days prior to the date fixed for prepayment. Partial prepayments shall be
applied in inverse order of the maturity of principal installments.
This Bond is secured primarily by a pledge of the Stormwater Utility Fees as defined by
Section 403.0893(3), Florida Statutes and imposed pursuant to Ordinance No. 93-11 adopted by the
Village Council on June 22, 1993 (as amended by Ordinance No. 93-11-A).
DMS/B.LEGISL/189500-3/13524.004

To the extent the Stormwater Utility Fees are insufficient to pay debt service on this Bond,
the Village has covenanted to appropriate in its annual budget, by amendment, if necessary, from
Non -Ad Valorem Revenues lawfully available in each fiscal year, amounts sufficient to pay the
principal and interest due on the Bonds in accordance with their terms during such fiscal year. "Non -
Ad Valorem Revenues" means all revenues of the Village derived from any source other than ad
valorem taxation on real or personal property which are legally available to make the payments
required under the Bond Ordinance, other than Public Service Taxes authorized by Part III, Chapter
166, Florida Statutes, and received by the Village pursuant to Section 25-50 et seq. of the Village
Code; but only after provision has been made by the Village for the payment of all essential or
legally mandated services. Such covenant and agreement on the part of the Village to budget and
appropriate such amounts of Non -Ad Valorem Revenues shall be cumulative to the extent not paid,
and shall continue until such Non -Ad Valorem Revenues or other legally available funds in amounts
sufficient to make all such required payments shall have been budgeted, appropriated and actually
paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing covenant of the Village, the Village does not covenant to
maintain any services or programs, now provided or maintained by the Village, which generate Non -
Ad Valorem Revenues.
Such covenant to budget and appropriate does not create any lien upon or pledge of such
Non -Ad Valorem Revenues, nor does it preclude the Village from pledging in the future its Non -Ad
Valorem Revenues, nor does it require the Village to levy and collect any particular Non -Ad
Valorem Revenues, nor does it give the Bondholders a prior claim on the Non -Ad Valorem
Revenues as opposed to claims of general creditors of the Village. Such covenant to appropriate
Non -Ad Valorem Revenues is subject in all respects to the payment of obligations secured by a
pledge of such Non -Ad Valorem Revenues heretofore or hereinafter entered into (including the
payment of debt service on bonds and other debt instruments). However, the covenant to budget and
appropriate in its general annual budget for the purposes and in the manner stated in the Bond
Ordinance shall have the effect of making available in the manner described herein Non -Ad Valorem
Revenues and placing on the Village a positive duty to appropriate and budget, by amendment, if
necessary, amounts sufficient to meet its obligations under the Bond Ordinance, subject, however,
in all respects to the terms of the Bond Ordinance and the restrictions of Section 166.241(3), Florida
Statutes, which provides, in part, that the governing body of each municipality make appropriations
for each -fiscal year which, in any one year, shall not exceed the amount to be received from taxation
or other revenue sources; and subject, further, to the payment of services and programs which are
for essential public purposes affecting the health, welfare and safety of the inhabitants of the Village
or which are legally mandated by applicable law.
THIS BOND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE AN INDEBTEDNESS OF
THE VILLAGE OR A PLEDGE OF THE FAITH AND CREDIT OF THE VILLAGE, BUT SHALL
BE PAYABLE EXCLUSIVELY FROM THE STORMWATER UTILITY FEES AND FROM
LEGALLY AVAILABLE NON -AD VALOREM REVENUES OF THE VILLAGE. THE
ISSUANCE OF THIS BOND SHALL NOT DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OR CONTINGENTLY
OBLIGATE THE VILLAGE TO LEVY OR TO PLEDGE ANY FORM OF TAXATION
WHATEVER THEREFOR NOR SHALL THIS BOND CONSTITUTE A CHARGE, LIEN, OR

ENCUMBRANCE, LEGAL OR EQUITABLE, UPON ANY PROPERTY OF THE VILLAGE,
AND THE HOLDER OF THIS BOND SHALL HAVE NO RECOURSE TO THE POWER OF

The original registered Owner, and each successive registered Owner of this Bond shall be
conclusively deemed to have agreed and consented to the following terms and conditions:
1. The Village shall keep books for the registration of Bonds and for the registration of
transfers of Bonds as provided in the Resolution. Bonds may be transferred or exchanged upon the
registration books kept by the Village, upon delivery to the Village, together with written instructions
as to the details of the transfer or exchange, of such Bonds in form satisfactory to the Village and
with guaranty of signatures satisfactory to the Village, along with the social security number or
federal employer identification number of any transferee and, if the transferee is a trust, the name and
social security or federal tax identification numbers of the settlor and beneficiaries of the trust, the
date of the trust and the name of the trustee. The Bonds may be exchanged for Bonds of the same
principal amount and maturity and denominations in integral multiples of $250,000 (except that an
odd lot is permitted to complete the outstanding principal balance). No transfer or exchange of any
Bond shall be effective until entered on the registration books maintained by the Village.
2. The Village may deem and treat the person in whose name any Bond shall be
registered upon the books of the Village as the absolute Owner of such Bond, whether such Bond
shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of
and interest on such Bond as they become due, and for all other purposes. All such payments so
made to any such Owner or upon his order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the
liability upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
3. In all cases in which the privilege of exchanging Bonds or transferring Bonds is
exercised, the Village shall execute and deliver Bonds in accordance with the provisions of the
Resolution. There shall be no charge for any such exchange or transfer of Bonds, but the Village may
require payment of a sum sufficient to pay any tax, fee or other governmental charge required to be
paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. The Village shall not be required to transfer or
exchange Bonds for a period of fifteen (15) days next preceding an interest payment date on such
Bonds.
4. All Bonds, the principal and interest of which has been paid, either at or prior to
maturity, shall be delivered to the Village when such payment is made, and shall thereupon be
cancelled. In case part, but not all of an outstanding Bond shall be prepaid, such Bond shall not be
surrendered in exchange for a new Bond.
It is hereby certified and recited that all acts, conditions and things required to happen, to
exist and to be performed precedent to and for the issuance of this Bond have happened, do exist and
have been performed in due time, form and manner as required by the Constitution and the laws of
the State of Florida applicable thereto.

SECTION 7. PLEDGE OF STORMWATER UTILITY FEES. Pursuant to Ordinance No.
93-11 adopted by the Council on June 22, 1993 (as amended by Ordinance No. 93-11-A), the Village
established, and assesses and collects Stormwater Utility Fees as defined by Section 403.0893(3),
Florida Statutes (the "Stormwater Utility Fees"), upon all residential, developed property and all
nonresidential, developed property in the Village. The Village hereby pledges such Stormwater
Utility Fees to the payment of the principal and interest due on the Bonds.
SECTION 8. COVENANT TO BUDGET AND APPROPRIATE. To the extent the
Stormwater Utility Fees are insufficient to pay debt service on the Bonds, the Village hereby
covenants and agrees to appropriate in its annual budget, by amendment, if necessary, from Non -Ad
Valorem Revenues lawfully available in each fiscal year, amounts sufficient to pay the principal and
interest due on the Bonds in accordance with their terms during such fiscal year. "Non -Ad Valorem
Revenues" means all revenues of the Village derived from any source other than ad valorem taxation
on real or personal property and which are legally available to make the payments required under this
Resolution, other than Public Service Taxes authorized by Part III, Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, and
received by the Village pursuant to Section 25-50 et seq. of the Village Code; but only after
provision has been made by the Village for the payment of all essential or legally mandated services.
Such covenant and agreement on the part of the Village to budget and appropriate such amounts of
Non -Ad Valorem Revenues shall be cumulative to the extent not paid, and shall continue until such
Non -Ad Valorem Revenues or other legally available funds in amounts sufficient to make all such
required payments shall have been budgeted, appropriated and actually paid. Notwithstanding the
foregoing covenant of the Village, the Village does not covenant to maintain any services or
programs, now provided or maintained by the Village, which generate Non -Ad Valorem Revenues.
Such covenant to budget and appropriate does not create any lien upon or pledge of such
Non -Ad Valorem Revenues, nor does it preclude the Village from pledging in the future its Non -Ad
Valorem Revenues, nor does it require the Village to levy and collect any particular Non -Ad
Valorem Revenues, nor does it give the Bondholders a prior claim on the Non -Ad Valorem
Revenues as opposed to claims of general creditors of the Village. Such covenant to appropriate
Non -Ad Valorem Revenues is subject in all respects to the payment of obligations secured by a
pledge of such Non -Ad Valorem Revenues heretofore or hereinafter entered into (including the
payment of debt service on bonds and other debt instruments). However, the covenant to budget and
appropriate in its general annual budget for the purposes and in the manner stated herein shall have
the effect of making available in the manner described herein Non -Ad Valorem Revenues and
placing on the Village a positive duty to appropriate and budget, by amendment, if necessary,
amounts sufficient to meet its obligations under this Resolution, subject, however, in all respects to
the terms of this Resolution and the restrictions of Section 166.241(3), Florida Statutes, which
provides, in part, that the governing body of each municipality make appropriations for each fiscal
year which, in any one year, shall not exceed the amount to be received from taxation or other
revenue sources; and subject, further, to the payment of services and programs which are for
essential public purposes affecting the health, welfare and safety of the inhabitants of the Village or
which are legally mandated by applicable law.

SECTION 9. BOND FUND. There is hereby created a fund entitled "Village of Key
Biscayne, Florida Stormwater Utility Revenue Bonds, Series 1999 Bond Fund" (the "Bond Fund").
There shall be deposited into the Bond Fund on each Interest Payment Date sufficient amounts of
Stormwater Utility Fees and, as necessary, Non -Ad Valorem Revenues as specified in Section 8
hereof which, together with the amounts already on deposit therein, will enable the Village to pay
the principal of and interest on the Bonds on each Interest Payment Date. Moneys in the Bond Fund
shall be applied on each Interest Payment Date to the payment of principal of and interest on the
Bonds coming due on each such date.
SECTION 10. INVESTMENT OF BOND FUND. Subject to Section 13 hereof, funds in the
Bond Fund may be invested in the following investments, maturing at or before the time such funds
may be needed to pay principal of or interest on Bonds, to the extent such investments are legal for
investment of municipal funds ("Authorized Investments"):
(a) The Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund;
(b) Negotiable direct obligations of, or obligations the principal of and interest
on which are unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States Government at the then
prevailing market price for such securities;
(c) Interest -bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under
the laws of the State of Florida (the "State"), in national banks organized under the laws of
the United States and doing business and situated in the State, in savings and loan
associations which are under State supervision, or in federal savings and loan associations
located in the State and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that
any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law;
(d) Obligations of the federal farm credit banks; the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, including Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation participation
certificates; or the Federal Home Loan Bank or its district banks or obligations guaranteed
by the Government National Mortgage Association;
(e) Obligations of the Federal National Mortgage Association, including Federal
National Mortgage Association participation certificates and mortgage pass -through
certificates guaranteed by the Federal National Mortgage Association;
(f) Securities of, or other interests in, any open-end or closed -end management

(g) Any other investments that at the time are legal investments for municipal
funds.
SECTION 11. APPLICATION OF BOND PROCEEDS. The proceeds received upon the sale
of the Bonds shall be applied immediately upon the date of issuance of the Bonds to pay the principal
of the Notes.
SECTION 12. FUNDS. Each of the funds and accounts herein established and created shall
constitute trust funds for the purposes provided herein for such funds and accounts respectively. The
money in such funds and accounts shall be continuously secured in the same manner as deposits of
Village funds are authorized to be secured by the laws of the State of Florida. Earnings on any
investments in any amounts on any of the funds and accounts herein established and created shall
be credited to such respective fund or account.
The designation and establishment of the funds and accounts in and by this Bond Resolution
shall not be construed to require the establishment of any completely independent, self -balancing
funds, as such term is commonly defined and used in governmental accounting, but rather is intended
solely to constitute an earmarking of certain revenues and assets of the Village for the purposes
herein provided and to establish certain priorities for application of such revenues and assets.
SECTION 13. INVESTMENTS AND USE OF PROCEEDS TO COMPLY WITH
INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986. The Village covenants to the Owners of the Bonds that
it will take all actions and do all things necessary and desirable in order to maintain the exclusion
from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds, and shall refrain from
taking any actions that would cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal
income tax purposes. In particular, the Village will not make or direct the making of any investment
or other use of the proceeds of the Bonds which would cause such Bonds to be "private activity
bonds" as that term is defined in Section 141 (or any successor provision thereto) of the Code or
"arbitrage bonds" as that term is defined in Section 148 (or any successor provision thereto) of the
Code, and all applicable regulations promulgated under the Code, and that it will comply with the
applicable requirements of Sections 141 and 148 of the Code and the aforementioned regulations
throughout the term of the Bonds.
SECTION 14. DESIGNATION UNDER SECTION 265(b)(3) OF THE CODE. In the Note
Resolution, the Village designated the Notes as qualified tax-exempt obligations under Section
265(b)(3)(B) of the Code, and made all necessary filings in order to effectuate such election. The
1997 Note Extension and the 1998 Note Extension were treated as qualified tax-exempt obligations
under Section 265(b)(3)(D)(ii) of the Code. The principal amount of the Bonds does not exceed the
outstanding principal amount of the Notes, each of the average maturity of the 1998 Note Extension,
the 1997 Note Extension and the Notes did not exceed three years, and the Bonds have a maturity
date which is not later than thirty (30) years after the date of issuance of the Notes. Accordingly, the
Bonds are treated as qualified tax-exempt obligations under Section 265(b)(3)(D)(ii) of the Code.

SECTION 15. ARBITRAGE REBATE COVENANTS. There is hereby created and
established a fund to be held by the Village, designated the "Village of Key Biscayne Stormwater
Utility Revenue Bonds, Series 1999 Rebate Fund" (the "Rebate Fund"). The Rebate Fund shall be
held by the Village separate and apart from all other funds and accounts held by the Village under
this Resolution and from all other moneys of the Village.
Notwithstanding anything in this Resolution to the contrary, the Village shall transfer to the
Rebate Fund the amounts required to be transferred in order to comply with the Rebate Covenants,
if any, attached as an Exhibit to the Arbitrage Certificate to be delivered by the Village on the date
of delivery of the Bonds (the "Rebate Covenants"), when such amounts are so required to be
transferred. The Village Manager shall make or cause to be made payments from the Rebate Fund
of amounts required to be deposited therein to the United States of America in the amounts and at
the times required by the Rebate Covenants. The Village covenants for the benefit of the Owners of
the Bonds that it will comply with the Rebate Covenants. The Rebate Fund, together with all moneys
and securities from time to time held therein and all investment earnings derived therefrom, shall be
excluded from the pledge and lien of this Resolution. The Village shall not be required to comply
with the requirements of this Section 15 in the event that the Village obtains an opinion of nationally
recognized bond counsel that (i) such compliance is not required in order to maintain the federal
income tax exemption of interest on the Bonds and/or (ii) compliance with some other requirement
is necessary to maintain the federal income tax exemption of interest on the Bonds.
SECTION 16. SPECIAL COVENANTS. The Village shall, within one hundred eighty (180)
days of the end of each fiscal year of the Village, deliver to the Bondholders a copy of the annual
audited financial statements of the Village.
SECTION 17. COVENANTS BINDING ON VILLAGE AND SUCCESSOR. All covenants,
stipulations, obligations and agreements of the Village contained in this Resolution shall be deemed
to be covenants, stipulations, obligations and agreements of the Village to the full extent authorized
or permitted by law, and all such covenants, stipulations, obligations and agreements shall be binding
upon the successor or successors thereof from time to time and upon the officer, board, body or
commission to whom or to which any power or duty affecting such covenants, stipulations,
obligations and agreements shall be transferred by or in accordance with law.
Except as otherwise provided in this Resolution, all rights, powers and privileges conferred
and duties and liabilities imposed upon the Village or upon the Village Council by the provisions
of this Resolution shall be exercised or performed by the Village Council or by such officers, board,
body or commission as may be required by law to exercise such powers or to perform such duties.
No covenant, stipulation, obligation or agreement herein contained shall be deemed to be a
covenant, stipulation, obligation or agreement of any present or future member of the Village
Council or officer, agent or employee of the Village in his or her individual capacity, and neither the
members of the Village Council nor any officer, agent or employee of the Village executing the
Bonds shall be liable personally on the Bonds or be subject to any personal liability or accountability

"event of default":
(a) payment of the principal of any of the Bonds shall not be made when the same
shall become due and payable; or
(b) payment of any installment of interest on any of the Bonds shall not be made
when the same shall become due and payable; or
(c) the Village shall default in the due and punctual performance of any covenant,
condition, agreement or provision contained in the Bonds or in this Resolution (except for
a default described in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section) on the part of the Village to be
performed, and such default shall continue for sixty (60) days after written notice specifying
such default and requiring same to be remedied shall have been given to the Village by any
Owner of any Bond; provided that it shall not constitute an event of default if the default is
not one that can be cured within such sixty (60) days, as agreed by the Bondholders and the
Village, and the Village commences within such sixty (60) days and is proceeding diligently
with action to correct such default; or
(d) any proceeding shall be instituted with the consent of the Village for the
purpose of effecting a composition between the Village and its creditors or for the purpose
of adjusting the claims of such creditors pursuant to any federal or state statute now or
hereafter enacted and such proceedings shall not have been dismissed within thirty (30) days
after the institution of the same.
SECTION 19. REMEDIES; RIGHTS OF BONDHOLDERS. Upon the occurrence and
continuance of any event of default specified in Section 18 hereof, the Owners of the Bonds may
pursue any available remedy by suit, at law or in equity to enforce the payment of the principal of
and interest on the Bonds then outstanding.
No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default or event of
default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be waiver of any such default
or event of default or acquiescence therein; and every such right and power may be exercised from
time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. No waiver of any event of default hereunder
shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent event of default or shall impair any rights or remedies
consequent thereon.
The Village agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify the Bank and its directors,
officers, employees and agents from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
(including, without limitation, counsel fees and expenses) which may be incurred in connection with
enforcement of the provisions of this Resolution and the Bonds.

SECTION 20. DEFEASANCE. Upon the payment in full of all principal and interest due on
the Bonds, the Bonds shall be deemed to be paid and shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding
for the purposes of this Resolution and all covenants and pledges hereunder, and all liability of the
Village with respect to said Bonds, shall cease, terminate and be completely discharged and
extinguished; provided, however, that the requirements of Section 15 hereof to rebate any amounts
due to the United States pursuant to the Rebate Covenants shall survive the payment of principal and
interest with respect to the Bonds or any portion thereof.
SECTION 21. SALE OF BONDS. Based upon the uncertainty of the interest rate
environment if sale of the Bonds is delayed, the Village hereby determines the necessity for a
negotiated sale of the Bonds. The Village has been provided all applicable disclosure information

SECTION 23. SEVERABILITY. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Resolution
or of any Bonds issued hereunder shall for any reason be held to be illegal or invalid, such illegality
or invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Resolution or of the Bonds, but this
Resolution and the Bonds shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had
not been contained therein. The Bonds are issued and this Resolution is adopted with the intent that
the laws of the State shall govern their construction.
SECTION 24. PAYMENTS DUE ON SATURDAYS, SUNDAYS AND HOLIDAYS. In
