The Bonds shall be dated the date of their issuance and delivery and shall be initially issued as one Bond in the denomination of $9,987,551. The Bonds shall mature on November 1, 2022. 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 LEGALLY AVAILABLE NON -AD VALOREM REVENUES OF THE VILLAGE, 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 ANY PROPERTY OF THE VILLAGE, AND THE HOLDERS OF THE BONDS SHALL HAVE NO RECOURSE TO THE POWER OF TAXATION. (b) Interest Rate. 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 February, May, August and November (the "Interest Payment Dates"), commencing February 1, 2003, at an interest rate equal to 3.59% per annum to but not including November 1, 2012 (the "Initial Interest Rate Period"). Commencing on November 1, 2012 through the maturity date of the Bonds (the "Second Interest Rate Period"), the interest rate shall be adjusted to a rate equal to (A) the ten-year Federal Reserve interest rate swap rate (the "Index Rate"), plus 110 basis points, divided by (B) 1.5054 (such divisor, however, being subject to adjustment if any of the events specified in this Section (2)(b) (I) through (iv) occurs, so as to provide the Owners of the Bonds the same after-tax yield they would otherwise have had in the absence of such occurrence) (the "New Interest Rate"). The "Index Rate" is currently published at the website: http://federalreserve.gov/releases/h 15/update. M1070212 2 2 Interest on the Bonds shall be computed on the basis of a 360 -day year based on twelve 30 - day months. (I) Adjustment of Interest Rate For Full Taxability. In the event a Determination of Taxability shall have occurred, the rate of interest on the Bonds shall be increased to a rate per annum equal to 5.5286%, and in the event a Determination of Taxability shall have occurred during the Second Interest Rate Period, the rate of interest on the Bonds shall be increased to a rate per annum equal to the New Interest Rate times 1.54 (the "Taxable Rate"), effective retroactively to the date on which the interest payable on the Bonds is includable for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of the Owners thereof. 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. All such additional interest, additions to tax, penalties and interest shall be paid by the Village on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date following the Determination of Taxability. 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 contested with the Internal Revenue Service 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, or (iv) receipt by the Village of an opinion of bond counsel to the Village to the effect that interest on the Bonds is includable for federal income tax purpose in the gross income of the Owners thereof. (ii) Adjustment of Interest Rate for Partial Taxability. In the event that interest on the Bonds during any period becomes partially taxable as a result of a Determination of Taxability applicable to less than all of the Bonds, then the interest rate on the Bonds shall be increased during such period by an amount equal to: (A -B) x C where: (a) A equals the Taxable Rate (expressed as a percentage); (b) B equals the interest rate on the Bonds (expressed as a percentage); and M1070212_2 3 (c) C equals the portion of the Bonds the interest on which has become taxable as the result of such tax change (expressed as a decimal). 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. All such additional interest, additions to tax, penalties and interest shall be paid by the Village on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date following the Determination of Taxability. (iii) Adjustment of Interest Rate for Change in Maximum Corporate Tax Rate. In the event that the maximum effective federal corporate tax rate (the "Maximum Corporate Tax Rate") during any period with respect to which interest shall be accruing on the Bonds on a tax-exempt basis, shall be other than thirty-five percent (35%), the interest rate on the Bonds that are bearing interest on a tax-exempt basis shall be adjusted to the product obtained by multiplying the interest rate then in effect on the Bonds by a fraction equal to (1-A divided by 1-B), where A equals the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in effect as of the date of adjustment and B equals the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of adjustment. (iv) Adjustment of Interest Rate for Other Changes Affecting After -Tax Yield. So long as any portion of the principal amount of the Bonds or interest thereon remains unpaid (a) if any law, rule, regulation or executive order is enacted or promulgated by any public body or governmental agency which changes the basis of taxation of interest on the Bonds or causes a reduction in yield on the Bonds (other than by reason of a change described above) to the Owners or any former Owners of the Bonds, including without limitation the imposition of any excise tax or surcharge thereon, or (b) if, as a result of action by any pubic body or governmental agency, any payment is required to be made by, or any federal, state or local income tax deduction is denied to, the Owners or any former Owners of the Bonds (other than by reason of a change described above or by reason of any action or failure to act on the part of any Owner or any former Owner of the Bonds) by reason of the ownership of the Bonds, the Village shall reimburse any such Owner within five (5) days after receipt by the Village of written demand for such payment, and the Village agrees to indemnify each such Owner against any loss, cost, charge or expense with respect to any such change. The determination of the after-tax yield calculation shall be verified by a firm of certified public accountants regularly employed by the Bank (or the current Owner of the Bonds) and acceptable to the Village, and such calculation, in the absence of manifest error, shall be binding on the Village and the Owners. M1070212 2 4 (c) Prepayment Provisions. (I) Mandatory Prepayment. The principal of the Bonds shall be subject to mandatory prepayment in quarterly annual installments on each Interest Payment Date, commencing August 1, 2004 (each a "Scheduled Due Date"). The schedule of principal and interest payments due on each Scheduled Due Date shall be determined on May 1, 2004, after the last Advance (as defined in Section 10(e) hereof) has been made in accordance with Section 10(a) hereof. The schedule shall be determined based upon an eighteen and one-half (18.5) year amortization schedule of substantially level payments of principal and interest, with payments of principal and interest sufficient to fully amortize so much of the principal amount of the Bonds as has been Advanced hereunder, with the final payment due and payable on November 1, 2022. In the event that there is more than one Owner of the Bonds, (A) the Village shall determine the amount of each Bond to be redeemed, and (B) 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 each Bond to be redeemed.

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.

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. 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 M1070212 2 6 as the Village may incur.

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.

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 R evenues, n or d oes i t r equire t he V illage t o t evy and c ollect any p articular N on -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.

Subject to the rights of prior prepayment and redemption described in the Bond, the Bond shall mature on November 1, 2022. Payments due hereunder shall be made no later than 2:00 p.m. on the date due, free and clear of any defenses, set -offs, counterclaims, or withholding or deductions for taxes. This Bond is issued under authority of and in full compliance with the Constitution and laws of the State of Florida, including particularly Part H of Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, as amended, the Charter of the Village, Ordinance No. 2002-11 duly adopted by the Village Council of the Village on October 22, 2002 (the "Ordinance") and Resolution No. 2002- adopted on November 26, 2002 (the "Resolution", and collectively with the Ordinance, the "Bond Ordinance"), and is subject to the terms of said Bond Ordinance.

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 February, May, August and November (the "Interest Payment Dates"), commencing February 1, 2003, at an interest rate equal to 3.59% per annum to but not including November 1, 2012. Commencing on November M1070212 2 1 1, 2012 through the maturity date of the Bonds (the "Second Interest Rate Period"), the interest rate shall be adjusted to a rate equal to (A) the ten-year Federal Reserve interest rate swap rate (the "Index Rate"), plus 110 basis points, divided by (B) 1.5054 (such divisor, however, being subject to adjustment if any of the events specified below, providing for adjustments to interest rates, occurs, so as to provide the Owners of the Bonds the same after-tax yield they would otherwise have had in the absence of such occurrence) (the "New Interest Rate"). The "Index Rate" is currently published at the website: http://federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update. Interest on this Bond shall be computed on the basis of a 360 -day year based on twelve 30 - day months. Adjustment of Interest Rate For Full Taxability. In the event a Determination of Taxability shall have occurred during the Initial Interest Rate Period, the rate of interest on the Bonds shall be increased to a rate per annum equal to 5.5286%, and in the event a Determination of Taxability shall have occurred during the Second Interest Rate Period, the rate of interest on the Bonds shall be increased to a rate per annum equal to the New Interest Rate times 1.54 (the "Taxable Rate"), effective retroactively to the date on which the interest payable on the Bonds is includable for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of the Owners thereof. 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. All such additional interest, additions to tax, penalties and interest shall be paid by the Village on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date following the Determination of Taxability. 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 contested with the Internal Revenue Service 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, or (iv) receipt by the Village of an opinion of bond counsel to the Village to the effect that interest on the Bonds is includable for federal income tax purpose in the gross income of the Owners thereof. Adjustment of Interest Rate for Partial Taxability. In the event that interest on the Bonds during any period becomes partially taxable as a result of a Determination of Taxability applicable to less than all of the Bonds, then the interest rate on the Bonds shall be increased during such period by an amount equal to: (A -B) x C where: (a) A equals the Taxable Rate (expressed as a percentage); M1070212 2 2 (b) B equals the interest rate on the Bonds (expressed as a percentage); and (c) C equals the portion of the Bonds the interest on which has become taxable as the result of such tax change (expressed as a decimal). 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. All such additional interest, additions to tax, penalties and interest shall be paid by the Village on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date following the Determination of Taxability. Adjustment of Interest Rate for Change in Maximum Corporate Tax Rate. In the event that the maximum effective federal corporate tax rate (the "Maximum Corporate Tax Rate") during any period with respect to which interest shall be accruing on the Bonds on a tax-exempt basis, shall be other than thirty-five percent (35%), the interest rate on the Bonds that are bearing interest on a tax- exempt basis shall be adjusted to the product obtained by multiplying the interest rate then in effect on the Bonds by a fraction equal to (1-A divided by 1-B), where A equals the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in effect as of the date of adjustment and B equals the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of adjustment. Adjustment of Interest Rate for Other Changes Affecting After -Tax Yield. So long as any portion of the principal amount of the Bonds or interest thereon remains unpaid (a) if any law, rule, regulation or executive order is enacted or promulgated by any public body or governmental agency which changes the basis of taxation of interest on the Bonds or causes a reduction in yield on the Bonds (other than by reason of a change described above) to the Owners or any former Owners of the Bonds, including without limitation the imposition of any excise tax or surcharge thereon, or (b) if, as a result of action by any pubic body or governmental agency, any payment is required to be made by, or any federal, state or local income tax deduction is denied to, the Owners or any former Owners of the Bonds (other than by reason of a change described above or by reason of any action or failure to act on the part of any Owner or any former Owner of the Bonds) by reason of the ownership of the Bonds, the Village shall reimburse any such Owner within five (5) days after receipt by the Village of written demand for such payment, and the Village agrees to indemnify each such Owner against any loss, cost, charge or expense with respect to any such change. The determination of the after-tax yield calculation shall be verified by a firm of certified public accountants regularly employed by the Bank (or the current Owner of the Bonds) and acceptable to the Village, and such calculation, in the absence of manifest error, shall be binding on the Village and the Owners. The principal of this Bond shall be subject to mandatory prepayment in quarterly installments on each Interest Payment Date, commencing August 1, 2004 (each a "Scheduled Due Date"). The schedule of principal and interest payments due on each Scheduled Due Date shall be determined on May 1, 2004, after the last Advance (as defined in Section 10(e) of the Resolution) has been made M1070212 2 3 in accordance with Section 10(a) of the Resolution. The schedule shall be determined based on an eighteen and one-half (18.5) year amortization schedule of substantially level payment of principal and interest, with payments of principal and interest sufficient to fully amortize so much of the principal amount of the Bonds as has been Advanced hereunder, with the final payment due and payable on November 1, 2022. In the event that there is more than one Owner of the Bonds, (I) the Village shall determine the amount of each Bond to be redeemed, 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 each Bond to be redeemed. 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 o r h is 1 egal representative a t the address o f t he Owner as it appears on the registration books of the Village. This Bond is subject to optional prepayment, upon thirty (30) days written notice to the Owners of the Bonds, in whole or in part at any time at par, plus accrued interest to the date of prepayment. 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 which are legally available to make the payments required under the Bond Ordinance, other than (I) 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 and (ii) 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); 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 M1070212 2 4 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 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. 4`` 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 maybe 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 141070212_2 5 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.

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 e the . ayments required under the Bond apter 166, Florida tion 5 . i ► e Village Code and 1'<< 9.

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 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 Bonds are being sold directly to the Purchaser. The purpose of this letter is to furnish, pursuant to the provisions of Subsections (2), (3) and (6) of Section 218.385, Florida Statutes, as amended, certain information with respect to the purchase and sale of Bonds, as follows: (a) There is no managing underwriter for the Bonds. (b) There are no "finders," as defined in Section 218.386, Florida Statutes, as amended, with respect to the Bonds. (c) There is no underwriting spread with respect to the Bonds. (d) No management fee will be charged by the Purchaser. No commitment fee will be charged by the Purchaser. (e) No fee, bonus or other compensation will be paid by the Purchaser in connection with the Bonds to any person not regularly employed or retained by it, except for a fee of $3,000 to Greenberg Traurig, P.A., as counsel to the Bank. (f) The name and address of the Purchaser is SunTrust Bank, 777 Brickell Avenue, Miami, Florida 33131. (g) The Village is proposing to issue $9,987,551 of Bonds for the purpose of financing a portion of the costs of construction and equipping of a community center, including a parking garage and swimming pool, financing architectural, engineering, environmental, legal and other planning costs related thereto, and paying costs of issuance of the Bonds. The Bonds are expected to be repaid over 20 years. At an assumed interest rate of 3.59% (the fixed rate for the first 10 years) total interest paid over the life of Bonds will be $4,284,387.87. The source of repayment or security for the Bonds is expected to be a covenant to budget and appropriate from legally available Non -Ad Valorem Revenues of the {JDC/013524.0006/M 1070618_2 } Village. Assuming the interest rate on the Bonds remains at 3.59% over the life of the Bonds, authorizing the Bonds will result in a maximum amount of $605,000 of Non -Ad Valorem Revenues not being available to finance the other services of the Village each fiscal year for 20 years.

Dated this 27th day of November, 2002. SUNTRUST BANK By: Kimrey Neu,. Fiji Vice President {JDC/013524.0006/M 1070618_2 } 2 ARBITRAGE CERTIFICATE The undersigned is the Mayor of the Village of Key Biscayne, Florida (the "Village"), and hereby certifies the following with respect to the Village's $9,987,551 Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds, Series 2002 (the "Series 2002 Bonds"). The undersigned is the official charged with others with responsibility for issuing the Series 2002 Bonds. 1. General (a) The Series 2002 Bonds are being issued on the date hereof pursuant to Ordinance No. 2002-11 adopted by the Village Council on October 22, 2002 and Resolution No. 2002-48 adopted by the Village Council on November 26, 2002 (collectively, the "Bond Ordinance") to provide funds to finance a portion of the costs of construction and equipping of a community center, including a parking garage and swimming pool, finance architectural, engineering, environmental, legal and other planning costs related thereto, and pay costs of issuance of the Bonds (the "Project"). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise specifically defined have the same meanings as when used in the Bond Ordinance. (b) This certification is made under 26 CFR § 1.148-2(b)(2) relating to "arbitrage bonds" as defined in Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Terms used herein which are not capitalized or specifically defined have the same meanings as when used in 26 CFR §§ 1.148-1 - 1.148-11. The undersigned has investigated the facts, estimates, and circumstances in existence on the date hereof. Such facts, estimates, and circumstances, together with the expectations of the Village as to future events, are set forth in summary form in this certificate. On the basis of such facts, estimates, and circumstances, it is not expected that the proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds will be used in any manner that would cause the Series 2002 Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of the Code and regulations. To the best of my knowledge and belief, such expectations are reasonable and there are no facts, estimates, or circumstances that would materially change them. 2. Source and Use of Proceeds (a) Advances of Bond proceeds under the Bond Ordinance (the "Advances") may be made in an aggregate amount not to exceed $9,987,551 upon the request of the Village. On the date hereof, the first Advance in the amount of $50,000 will be made to the Village. (b) $28,000 of the First Advance will be used within six months of the date hereof to pay costs of issuing the Series 2002 Bonds. (c) The remainder of the First Advance and all other Advances will be deposited in the Project Fund on the dates received and used, together with all amounts derived from the investment of thereof, to pay for costs of the Project. The Village reasonably expects that all amounts in the Project Fund will be fully spent within three (3) years from the date hereof. {JDC1013524.0006/M 1071144_2 } Arbitrage Certificate (d) The Advances, together with all amounts derived from the investment thereof, will not exceed by any amount the amount necessary for the governmental purposes of the Series 2002 Bonds. (e) The Village reasonably expects to incur within six months of the date hereof substantial binding obligations to third parties in an aggregate amount in excess of $500,000 to acquire and construct the Project. Work on the Project and the expenditure of the Advances will proceed with due diligence to the completion thereof. The Village reasonably expects that at least 85 percent of the Advances deposited in the Project Fund will be applied to pay costs of the Project within three years of the date hereof. (f) No portion of the Advances or amounts derived from the investment thereof will be used to pay debt service on any other debt obligation of the Village. (g) The Village will not treat any amount in excess of $100,000 as being used to reimburse an expenditure paid before the date hereof unless the requirements of 26 CFR § 1.1 50- 2(d) relating to reimbursement allocations are met with respect to such expenditure. The preceding sentence shall not apply to preliminary expenditures with respect to a project to the extent that the amount of such expenditures does not exceed 20% of the aggregate issue price of the portion of an issue or issues that finance or are reasonably expected to finance the project for which the preliminary expenditures were incurred. Preliminary expenditures with respect to a project means architectural, engineering, surveying, soil testing, costs of issuance, and similar costs incurred prior to commencement of acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of the project, other than land acquisition, site preparation, and similar costs incident to commencement of construction. (h) The Village reasonably expects that the Project will continue throughout the term of the Series 2002 Bonds to be owned and operated by the Village. 3. Flow of Funds (a) The Village is required under the Bond Ordinance on each Interest Payment Date to deposit Non -Ad Valorem Revenues into the Bond Fund, which, together with other moneys therein, are sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Series 2002 Bonds on such Interest Payment Date. (b) The Bond Fund has been established to achieve a proper matching of revenues and debt service within each bond year and will be depleted at least once each year (except for a reasonable carryover amount that will not exceed the greater of one year's earnings on the Bond Fund and 1/12 of annual debt service on the Series 2002 Bonds). All amounts in the Bond Fund will be expended to pay debt service on the Series 2002 Bonds within 13 months of the date of receipt thereof (12 months if the amounts are interest or income from the investment of such amounts). (c) The Rebate Fund is not pledged to pay debt service on the Series 2002 Bonds and will not be available if needed to pay such debt service. Arbitrage Certificate {JDC/013524.0006/M1071144_2} 2 4. Yield Restrictions (a) The restrictions set forth in this Section 4 apply to taxable investments. For this purpose, taxable investments include all investments other than obligations the interest on which is (i) excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes; and (ii) not an item of tax preference for federal alternative minimum tax purposes. (b) Advances and interest or income derived from the investment thereof will not be invested in taxable investments that produce a yield over the term of the Series 2002 Bonds that is materially higher than the yield on the Series 2002 Bonds (within the meaning of 26 CFR § 1.148- 2(d)(2)) except as follows: (i) Such amounts may be invested without regard to yield until the date that is 3 years after the date hereof; (ii) Such amounts that represent investment earnings may be invested without regard to yield for a 1 -year period beginning on the date of receipt thereof; and (iii) An additional amount not in excess of $100,000 may be invested without regard to yield. (c) Amounts in the Bond Fund that are not to be used within 13 months of the date of receipt thereof (12 months if the amounts are interest or income from the investment of such amounts) to pay principal or interest on the Series 2002 Bonds will not be invested in taxable investments that produce a yield over the term of the Series 2002 Bonds that is materially higher than the yield on the Series 2002 Bonds (within the meaning of 26 CFR §1.148-2(d)(2)) except to the extent that the aggregate amount so invested does not exceed the difference between $100,000 and any amount invested pursuant to the $100,000 exception under 4(b)(iii) hereof (d) There are no funds or accounts in existence or that are expected to be established in addition to the funds referred to herein that are reasonably expected to be used (directly or indirectly) or that will be pledged (directly or indirectly) to pay debt service on the Series 2002 Bonds. There are not any amounts that have been reserved or otherwise set aside such that there is a reasonable assurance that such amounts will be available to pay principal or interest on the Series 2002 Bonds. In addition, the Village has not entered into, and does not reasonably expect to enter into within the next thirty days, a hedge contract primarily for the purpose of reducing the Village's risk of interest rate changes with respect to the Series 2002 Bonds. If any such fund or account is established after the date hereof, amounts in the fund or account will not be invested at a yield higher than the yield on the Series 2002 Bonds to the extent necessary to preserve the federal income tax exemption of interest on the Series 2002 Bonds. (e) There are no amounts held under any agreement requiring the maintenance of amounts at a particular level for the direct or indirect benefit of the owners of the Series 2002 Bonds or any guarantor of the Series 2002 Bonds, excluding for this purpose amounts in which the Village Arbitrage Certificate {JDC/013524.0006/M1071144_2} 3 may grant rights that are superior to the rights of the owners of the Series 2002 Bonds or any guarantor of the Series 2002 Bonds and amounts that do not exceed reasonable needs for which they are maintained and as to which the required level is tested no more frequently than every six (6) months and that may be spent without any substantial restriction other than a requirement to replenish the amount by the next testing date. (f) There are no amounts that have a sufficiently direct nexus to the Series 2002 Bonds to conclude that the amounts would have been used for debt service on the Series 2002 Bonds if the proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds were not being used for those purposes. (g) The yield on the Series 2002 Bonds for purposes of this Section 4 will be computed on the basis of a 30 day month and 360 day year and with interest compounded semiannually. (h) If any taxable investments are subject to yield restrictions under this Section 4, the yield produced by the taxable investments shall be computed on the basis of a 30 day month and 360 day year and with interest compounded semiannually. For purposes of computing yield, the purchase price shall be determined as provided in 26 CFR § 1.148-5, and brokerage and selling commissions and yield reduction payments may be taken into account to the extent permitted thereunder. 5. Project Fund Amounts on deposit in the Project Fund will be used for the payment of costs of acquisition and construction of the Project. No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used for reimbursement of expenditures paid by the Village prior to the date of issuance of the Series 2002 Bonds except for (i) preliminary capital expenditures incurred before commencement of acquisition or construction of the Project that do not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the portion of the issue price of the Series 2002 Bonds, and (ii) capital expenditures that (A) were paid no earlier than sixty (60) days before the date of the adoption by the Village of a declaration of intent to reimburse such expenditures from the proceeds of obligations, and (B) are reimbursed no later than eighteen (18) months after the later of the date the expenditure was paid or the date the Project is placed in service (but no later than three (3) years after the expenditure is paid). Proceeds (if any) used for reimbursement of expenditures will be deposited in the general fund of the Village and will not be used to replace funds of the Village to be used to refund debt of the Village to create a sinking or pledged fund for such debt or the Series 2002 Bonds or otherwise to create replacement proceeds for such debt or for the Series 2002 Bonds. 6. Qualified Tax -Exempt Obligations (a) The Village reasonably expects that the aggregate face amount of all tax- exempt obligations issued by the Village during calendar year 2002 will not exceed $10 million. The Village represents that neither the Village nor any subordinate entities or entities issuing tax-exempt obligations on behalf of the Village within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code have issued Arbitrage Certificate {JDC/013524.0006/M1071144_2} 4 tax-exempt obligations during calendar year 2002 and neither the Village nor any such entities expect to issue tax-exempt obligations during calendar year 2002, other than the Series 2002 Bonds. For purposes of this paragraph (a): (i) The Village and all entities that issue obligations on behalf of the Village are treated as the Village, and all obligations issued by any entity subordinate to another entity are treated as issued by such other entity. (ii) The term "obligation" includes any bond or note (whether or not recourse), any warrant, any lease purchase agreement, and any other instrument that is treated as an obligation for purposes of section 103 of the Code, except that such term shall not include: any private activity bond (as defined in section 141 of the Code) or any current refunding obligation; (iii) An obligation is "tax-exempt" if: (a) interest on the obligation is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes; (b) at the time of issuance of the obligation it was represented to the purchaser that interest on the obligation is or may be excluded from such gross income; or (c) the proceeds of the obligation were derived (directly or indirectly) from proceeds of a tax-exempt obligation. (iv) An obligation that is part of an issue is a refunding obligation to the extent that: (a) proceeds of the issue are used to pay principal or interest on an obligation that is part of another issue; and (b) the amount of the refunding obligation does not exceed the amount of the refunded obligation (determined at the time of issuance of the refunding obligation). For this purpose, the amount of an obligation is the stated principal amount plus accrued unpaid interest (or, if the original issue premium or discount exceeds 2 percent, the present value of the obligation). (v) A refunding obligation is a current refunding obligation if no portion of the proceeds of the issue of which the refunding obligation is a part is used (directly or indirectly) to pay principal, interest, or call premium on any obligation that is part of another issue more than 90 days after the date of issue of the refunding obligation.

(c) No portion of the proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds will be used as a substitute for other funds that were otherwise to be used as a source of financing for any portion of the Project.

(e) The Village has covenanted that neither the Village nor any person under the control or direction of the Village will make any investment or use of the proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds that would cause the Series 2002 Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of section 148 of the Code. No portion of the proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds will be intentionally used in the manner described in section 148(a)(1) or (a)(2) of the Code.

(h) The Village has covenanted that neither the Village nor any person under the control or direction of the Village will make any use of the Project that would cause the Series 2002 Bonds to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of section 141 of the Code. The Project will be owned and operated by the Village, and no portion of the Project will be used in the trade or business of any person other than a governmental unit (within the meaning of section 141 of the Code).

(j) The Village will use a consistently applied accounting method to account for investments and expenditures of proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds. Allocations of Series 2002 Bond proceeds to expenditures will be made only with respect to a current outlay of cash of the expenditures. The Village will not invest proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds in a commingled fund in which the Village owns more than 10 percent of the beneficial interest thereof. The Village will maintain books and records until six years after the date of retirement or redemption of the Series 2002 Bonds sufficient to (i) establish the accounting method used, (ii) account for all investment of proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds, and (iii) substantiate the allocation of proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds to expenditures. In the event such allocations of Series 2002 Bond proceeds to expenditures are not made within 60 days after the date of five years after the date hereof, the Village will use a specific tracing accounting method to account for investment and expenditures of proceeds of the Series 2002 Bonds.

The Bond Ordinance has been duly adopted by the Village and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Village, enforceable in accordance with its terms. {JDC/O I 3524.0006/M 107 I 163_2} BOCA RATON • FORT LAUDERDALE NAPLES • WEST PALM BEACH The Village Council of the Village of Key Biscayne SunTrust Bank November 27, 2002 Page 2 3. The issuance and sale of the Bonds has been duly authorized by the Village. The Bonds constitute valid and binding limited obligations of the Village, enforceable in accordance with their terms, payable in accordance with, and as limited by, the terms of the Bond Ordinance, solely from legally available Non -Ad Valorem Revenues (as defined in the Bond Ordinance) of the Village budgeted and appropriated annually by the Village for such purpose. The Bonds do not constitute a debt of the Village within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory provision, or a pledge of the faith and credit of the Village. The issuance of the Bonds shall not directly or indirectly or contingently obligate the Village to levy or to pledge any form of taxation whatsoever therefor nor shall the Bonds constitute a charge, lien or encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property of the Village, and the owners of the Bonds shall have no recourse to the taxing power of the Village. 4. Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Interest on the Bonds is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations; however, such interest is taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on corporations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Ownership of the Bonds may result in collateral federal tax consequences to certain taxpayers. We express no opinion regarding other federal tax consequences resulting from the ownership, receipt or accrual of interest on, or disposition of, the Bonds. The opinion set forth in the preceding paragraph assumes continuing compliance by the Village with certain requirements of the Code that must be met after the date of the issuance of the Bonds in order for interest on the Bonds to be excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The failure to meet these requirements may cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactively to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The Village has covenanted in the Bond Ordinance to take the actions necessary to comply with such requirements. We are further of the opinion that the Bonds are "qualified tax exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code. Accordingly, a financial institution's interest expense allocable to interest on the Bonds will be reduced by 20% under Section 291(a)(3) of the Code (rather than disallowed under Section 265(b) of the Code). 5. The Bonds are exempt from the intangible personal property tax imposed pursuant to Chapter 199, Florida Statutes and from the excise tax on documents imposed pursuant to Chapter 201, Florida Statutes. {JDC/O 13524.0006M107 I 163_2} BOCA RATON • FORT LAUDERDALE NAPLES . WEST PALM BEACH The Village Council of the Village of Key Biscayne SunTrust Bank November 27, 2002 Page 3 This opinion is qualified to the extent that the rights of the holders of the Bonds and the enforceability of the Bonds and the Bond Ordinance may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, now or hereafter in effect, and by the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases in accordance with equitable principles.

TREVARTHEN Re: $9,987,551 Village of Key Biscayne Florida Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds, Series 2002 Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as Village Attorney for the Village of Key Biscayne, Florida (the "Village") in connection with the issuance of the Village's $9,987,551 Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds, Series 2002 (the "Bonds"). In such capacity, we have examined the following: a. Ordinance No. 2002-11 adopted by the Village Council on October 22, 2002, and Resolution No. 2002-48 adopted by the Village Council on November 26, 2002, authorizing the issuance of the Bonds (collectively, the "Bond Ordinance"); b. Ordinance No. 2002-10 adopted by the Village Council on October 22, 2002 (the "Capital Project Ordinance") authorizing the capital project which is to be financed with the Bonds; The Village Council of the Village of Key Biscayne, Florida SunTrust Bank Adorno & Yoss, P.A. November 27, 2002 Page 2 c. The Village Charter, as amended (the "Charter"), and Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, as amended; and d. Such other documents, certificates, records and proceedings as we have considered necessary to enable us to render this opinion. Based on such examinations, we are of the opinion that: 1. The Bond Ordinance and the Capital Project Ordinance have been duly adopted and no further action of the Village is required to authorize the issuance, sale and delivery of the Bonds or the project to be financed with the Bonds. The Bond Ordinance and the Capital Project Ordinance constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Village, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting creditor's rights generally or by general principles of equity. 2. The issuance, sale and delivery of the Bonds and the adoption of the Bond Ordinance and the Capital Project Ordinance and compliance with the provisions thereof, under the circumstances contemplated thereby, are permitted under the provisions of the Charter, including, in particular, Sections 4.03(9) and 4.10 thereof, and to the best of our knowledge without undertaking any independent research, do not and will not in any way constitute a breach or default under any agreement or other instrument to which the Village is a party or any existing law, regulation, court order or consent decree to which the Village is subject. 3. To the best of our knowledge, there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation at law or in equity before or by any court, public board or body, pending or threatened against or affecting the Village, wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would materially adversely affect the Village's obligations under the Bond Ordinance or the Capital Project Ordinance, or adversely affect the validity of the Bonds or the security therefor.
