In addition, the Owners of the Bonds or any former Owners of the Bonds, as appropriate, shall be paid an amount equal to any additions to tax, interest and penalties, and any arrears in interest that are required to be paid to the United States by the Owners or former Owners of the Bonds as a result of such Determination of Taxability.

A revised principal amortization schedule will be attached to the final executed Bond. **Final Maturity 3 In the event that there is more than one Owner of the Bonds, (i) the amount of each Bond to be redeemed shall be pro rata based on the respective aggregate principal amount of Bonds then held by each Owner as a percentage of the total aggregate principal amount of Bonds then outstanding, and (ii) the Village shall give notice to each Owner of the Bonds at least three (3) days prior to the date of mandatory redemption of the amount of Bonds owned by such Owner to be redeemed. This Bond is subject to optional prepayment upon seven (7) days written notice to the Owner, (a) in whole at any time, at a price of par plus accrued interest to the date of prepayment and (b) in part on each October 1, in a principal amount not less than $150,000, at a price of par plus accrued interest to the date of prepayment plus a fee of $500. 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 Council on June 22, 1993 (as amended by Ordinance No. 93-11-A). To the extent the Stormwater Utility Fees are insufficient to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due, the Village has covenanted and agreed in the Bond Ordinance to appropriate in its annual budget, by amendment, if necessary, from Non -Ad Valorem Revenues (as defined below) 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 the Bond Ordinance, but only after provision has been made by the Village for the payment of all essential or legally mandated services not otherwise provided for by ad valorem taxes. 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 the Bond Ordinance, subject, 4 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 TAXATION. 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 $100,000 (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 its 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 5 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 of and interest on which have been paid, either at or prior to maturity, shall be delivered to the Village when such full 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 fora 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. 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 perfoiined in due time, form and manner as required by the Constitution and the laws of the State of Florida applicable thereto.
