its option, change the Paying Agent/Registrar upon not less than 50 days written notice to the
Paying Agent/Registrar, to be effective not later than 45 days prior to the next principal or
interest payment date after such notice. In the event that the entity at any time acting as Paying

otherwise cease to act as such, the Town covenants that promptly it will appoint a competent and
legally qualified bank, trust company, financial institution, or other agency to act as Paying
Agent/Registrar under this Ordinance. Upon any change in the Paying Agent/Registrar, the
previous Paying Agent/Registrar promptly shall transfer and deliver the Registration Books (or a
copy thereof), along with all other pertinent books and records relating to the Bonds, to the new
Paying Agent/Registrar designated and appointed by the Town. Upon any change in the Paying
Agent/Registrar, the Town promptly will cause a written notice thereof to be sent by the new
Paying Agent/Registrar to each registered owner of the Bonds, by United States mail, first-class

registered form, without interest coupons, with the principal of and interest on such Bonds to be

& Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company of New York ("DTC"), and except as
provided in subsection (g) of this Section, all of the outstanding Bonds shall be registered in the
name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC.
With respect to Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, the
Town and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any securities
brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations

clearance and settlement of securities transactions among DTC Participants or to any person on
behalf of whom such a DTC Participant holds an interest in the Bonds. Without limiting the

Agent/Registrar shall pay all principal of and interest on the Bonds only to or upon the order of
the registered owners, as shown in the Registration Books as provided in this Ordinance, or their
respective attorneys duly authorized in writing, and all such payments shall be valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Town's obligations with respect to payment of
principal of and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No person other
than a registered owner, as shown in the Registration Books, shall receive a Bond certificate
evidencing the obligation of the Town to make payments of principal and interest pursuant to
this Ordinance. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent/Registrar of written notice to the
effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject

owners of the Bonds that they be able to obtain certificated Bonds, the Town shall (i) appoint a
successor securities depository, qualified to act as such under Section 17A of the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, notify DTC and DTC Participants of the appointment of
such successor securities depository and transfer one or more separate Bonds to such successor
securities depository or (ii) notify DTC and DTC Participants of the availability through DTC of
Bonds and transfer one or more separate Bonds to DTC Participants having Bonds credited to
their DTC accounts. In such event, the Bonds shall no longer be restricted to being registered in
the Registration Books in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, but may be registered in
the name of the successor securities depository, or its nominee, or in whatever name or names
registered owners transferring or exchanging Bonds shall designate, in accordance with the
provisions of this Ordinance.
(h) Payments to Cede & Co. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance
to the contrary, so long as any Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of
DTC, all payments with respect to principal of and interest on such Bond and all notices with
respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the
Town's Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations to DTC.

representing the entire principal amount of the Bonds, payable in stated installments to the order
of the Underwriter or its designee, executed by manual or facsimile signature of the Mayor and
Town Secretary, approved by the Attorney General, and registered and signed by the
Comptroller in the manner prescribed by law, will be delivered to the Underwriter or its
designee. If the Bonds are sold subject to the book -entry system of DTC, then upon payment for
the initial Bond(s), the Paying Agent/Registrar shall insert the Delivery Date on the initial
Bond(s), cancel each of the initial Bond(s) and deliver to DTC on behalf of the Underwriter one
registered definitive Bond for each year of maturity of the Bonds, in the aggregate principal
amount of all of the Bonds for such maturity, registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee
of DTC. To the extent that the Paying Agent/Registrar is eligible to participate in DTC's FAST
System, pursuant to an agreement between the Paying Agent/Registrar and DTC, the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall hold the definitive Bonds in safekeeping for DTC.
0) Conditional_ Notice of Redemption. With respect to any optional redemption of
the Bonds, unless certain prerequisites to such redemption required by this Ordinance have been
met and moneys sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds
to be redeemed shall have been received by the Paying Agent/Registrar prior to the giving of
such notice of redemption, such notice may state that said redemption may, at the option of the
Town, be conditional upon the satisfaction of such prerequisites and receipt of such moneys by
the Paying Agent/Registrar on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or upon any
prerequisite set forth in such notice of redemption. If a conditional notice of redemption is given
and such prerequisites to the redemption and sufficient moneys are not received, such notice
shall be of no force and effect, the Town shall not redeem such Bonds and the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall give notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, to
the effect that the Bonds have not been redeemed.
Section 5. FORM OF BONDS. The form of the Bond, including the form of Paying
Agent/Registrar's Authentication Certificate, the form of Assignment and the form of
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 11
Registration Certificate of the Comptroller of Public Accounts of the State to be attached only to
the Bonds initially issued and delivered pursuant to this Ordinance, shall be, respectively,
substantially in the form provided in Exhibit A, with such appropriate variations, omissions, or
insertions as are permitted or required by this Ordinance. The Form of Bond as it appears in
Exhibit A shall be completed, amended and modified by Bond Counsel to incorporate the
information set forth in the Pricing Certificate, but it is not required for the Form of Bond to be
reproduced as an exhibit to the Pricing Certificate.
Section 6. PLEDGE.
(a) The Town hereby covenants and agrees that a first lien on the Pledged Revenues are
hereby irrevocably pledged to the payment and security of the Bonds Similarly Secured,
including the establishment and maintenance of the special funds created, established and
maintained for the payment and security thereof, all as hereinafter provided; and it is hereby
ordered that the Bonds Similarly Secured, and the interest thereon, shall constitute a lien on and
pledge of the Pledged Revenues and be valid and binding without any physical delivery thereof
or further act by the Town, and the lien created hereby on the Pledged Revenues for the payment
and security of the Bonds Similarly Secured, including the establishment and maintenance of the
special funds created, established and maintained for the payment and security thereof, shall be
superior to the lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues securing payment of any Subordinate
Lien Obligations heretofore or hereafter issued by the Town.
(b) Chapter 1208 applies to the issuance of the Bonds and the pledge of the Pledged
Revenues granted by the Town under this Section, and is therefore valid, effective, and
perfected. Should Texas law be amended at any time while the Bonds are outstanding and
unpaid, the result of such amendment being that the pledge of the Pledged Revenues granted by
the Town under this Section is to be subject to the filing requirements of Chapter 9, Business and
Commerce Code, in order to preserve to the Holders of the Bonds a security interest in said
pledge, the Town agrees to take such measures as it determines are reasonable and necessary
under Texas law to comply with the applicable provisions of Chapter 9, Business and Commerce
Code and enable a filing of a security interest in said pledge to occur.
Section 7. FUNDS. The following special funds ("Funds") heretofore created and
established in connection with the Previously Issued Bonds shall be maintained so long as any of
the Bonds Similarly Secured, or the interest thereon, are outstanding and unpaid:
(a) "Town of Prosper Waterworks and Sewer System Revenue Fund", hereinafter called
the "System Fund." This fund shall be kept and maintained at a depository bank of the Town,
and moneys deposited in this fund shall be used as described herein.
(b) "Town of Prosper Waterworks and Sewer System Revenue Bond Fund", hereinafter
called the 'Bond Fund."
(c) For each series or combination of series of Bonds Similarly Secured that are secured
by a Reserve Fund, a "Town of Prosper Waterworks and Sewer System Revenue Bond Reserve
Fund", hereinafter called a "Reserve Fund."
(d) All of such Funds may be held as subaccounts within another fund (or within the
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 12
System Fund) held by the Town's depository, and, as such, not held in separate bank accounts.
Such treatment shall not constitute a commingling of the monies in such Funds or of such Funds
and the Town shall keep full and complete records of the monies and investments credited to
each of such Funds.
Section 8. SYSTEM FUND. The Town hereby covenants, agrees and establishes that the
Gross Revenues shall be deposited and credited to the System Fund immediately as collected and
received. All Maintenance and Operating Expenses are and shall be paid from such Gross
Revenues as a first charge against same.
Section 9. FLOW OF FUNDS.
(a) All Gross Revenues deposited and credited to the System Fund shall be pledged and
appropriated to the extent required for the following uses and in the order of priority shown:
First: To the payment of all necessary and reasonable Maintenance and Operating
Expenses, and the payment of such Maintenance and Operating Expenses shall be a
first charge on and claim against the Gross Revenues.
Second: To the payment of the amounts required to be deposited in the Bond Fund
for the payment of Annual Debt Service Requirements on the Bonds Similarly
Secured as the same becomes due and payable.
Third: To the payment of the amounts required to be deposited in the Reserve Fund
to establish and maintain the Required Reserve in accordance with the provisions of
this Ordinance or any other ordinance relating to the issuance of Bonds Similarly
Secured.
Fourth: To make payment, including payment of amounts required for reserve fund
requirements, of all Subordinate Lien Obligations.
(b) Any Pledged Revenues remaining in the System Fund after satisfying the foregoing
payments, or making adequate and sufficient provision for the payment thereof, may be
appropriated and used for any other Town purpose now or hereafter permitted by law.
Section 10. BOND FUND.
(a) For purposes of providing funds to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on the Bonds Similarly Secured as the same become due and payable, including any mandatory
sinking fund redemption payments, the Town agrees that it shall maintain the Bond Fund. The
Town covenants to deposit and credit to the Bond Fund prior to each principal, interest payment
or redemption date from the available Pledged Revenues an amount equal to one hundred percent
(100%) of the amount required to fully pay the interest on and the principal of the Bonds
Similarly Secured then coming due and payable.
(b) The required deposits and credits to the Bond Fund shall continue to be made as
hereinabove provided until such time as (i) the total amount on deposit in and credited to the
Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund, if one is required, and in any reserve fund created pursuant to
the terms hereof, taking into account any Reserve Fund Obligation held in or for the benefit of
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 13
any such reserve fund) is equal to the amount required to fully pay and discharge all outstanding
Bonds Similarly Secured (principal, premium, if any, and interest) or (ii) the Bonds Similarly
Secured are no longer outstanding.
(c) Accrued interest and capitalized interest, if any, received from the purchaser of any
Bond Similarly Secured shall be taken into consideration and reduce the amount of the deposits
and credits hereinabove required into the Bond Fund.
Section 11. RESERVE FUND.
(a) The Town has heretofore created, and the Town hereby agrees to maintain at a
depository of the Town, a debt service reserve fund for the benefit of the Previously Issued
Bonds, and such debt service reserve fund is herein referred to as the "Reserve Fund", which
Reserve Fund is and will be held for the benefit of the Previously Issued Bonds, the Bonds and
any Additional Bonds that may be secured thereby. In accordance with this Ordinance and the
ordinances authorizing the issuance of the Previously Issued Bonds, the Town shall deposit and
credit to the Reserve Fund amounts required to maintain the balance in the Reserve Fund in an
amount equal to the Required Reserve. The Required Reserve shall be maintained in the Reserve
Fund at all times after the Delivery Date. The Town may fund the Reserve Fund with (i) cash on
hand, (ii) proceeds from the sale of the Bonds, (iii) one or more Reserve Fund Obligations or (iv)
any combination of (i) through (iii), and the Pricing Certificate shall set forth the method of
funding. All funds, investments and Reserve Fund Obligations on deposit and credited to the
Reserve Fund shall be used solely for (i) the payment of the principal of and interest on the
Bonds, when and to the extent other funds available for such purposes are insufficient, (ii) to
make Reserve Fund Obligation Payments, or (iii) to retire the last stated maturity or stated
maturities of or interest on the Bonds, and any excess amount in the Reserve Fund may be
transferred to the System Fund and allocated in accordance with this Ordinance.
(b) When and for so long as the cash, investments and Reserve Fund Obligations in the
Reserve Fund equal the Required Reserve or the portion then required to be on deposit therein,
no deposits need be made to the credit of the Reserve Fund; but, if and when the Reserve Fund at
any time contains less than the Required Reserve then required to be on deposit therein, the
Town covenants and agrees that the Town shall cure the deficiency in the Reserve Fund by
making Required Reserve Fund Deposits to such fund from the Pledged Revenues in accordance
with the terms hereof by monthly deposits in amounts equal to not less than 1/601h of the
Required Reserve, with any such deficiency payments being made on or before the last day of
each month until the Required Reserve has been fully funded or restored. In addition, in the
event that a portion of the Required Reserve is represented by a Reserve Fund Obligation, the
Required Reserve shall be restored as soon as possible from monthly deposits of Pledged
Revenues on deposit in the System Fund in accordance with the terms hereof, but subject to
making the full deposits and credits to the Bond Fund required to be made by Section 10. The
Town further covenants and agrees that, subject only to the prior deposits to be made to the Bond
Fund, the Pledged Revenues shall be applied and appropriated and used to establish and maintain
the Required Reserve, including by paying Reserve Fund Obligation Payments when due, and
any reserve established for the benefit of any issue or series of Additional Bonds and to cure any
deficiency in such amounts as required by the terms of this Ordinance and any other ordinance
pertaining to the issuance of Additional Bonds. Reimbursements to the provider, if any, of a
Reserve Fund Obligation shall constitute the making up of a deficiency in the Reserve Fund to
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 14
the extent that such reimbursements result in the reinstatement, in whole or in part, as the case
may be, of the amount of the Reserve Fund Obligation.
(c) Earnings and income derived from the investment of amounts held for the credit of
the Reserve Fund shall be retained in the Reserve Fund until the Reserve Fund contains the
Required Reserve. During such time as the Reserve Fund contains the Required Reserve or any
cash or Permitted Investment is replaced with a Reserve Fund Obligation pursuant to subsection
(d) below, the Town may, at its option, withdraw all surplus funds in the Reserve Fund and
deposit such surplus in the System Fund; provided that the face amount of any Reserve Fund
Obligation may be reduced at the option of the Town in lieu of such transfer. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any surplus funds in the Reserve Fund that consist of proceeds of the Bonds or
interest thereon shall be used for purposes for which the Bonds were issued or deposited to the
Bond Fund.
(d) The Town may at any time deposit, supplement, replace or substitute a Reserve Fund
Obligation for cash or Permitted Investments on deposit in the Reserve Fund or in substitution
for or replacement of any existing Reserve Fund Obligation, provided, that the deposit,
supplement, replacement or substitution of the Reserve Fund Obligation will not, in and of itself,
cause any ratings then assigned to the Bonds by any Rating Agency to be lowered and the
ordinance authorizing the substitution of the Reserve Fund Obligation for all or part of the
Required Reserve contains a finding that such substitution is cost effective. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Ordinance, if a Reserve Fund Obligation is utilized in connection with the
Bonds after the issuance date of the Bonds, the Town must specifically approve any such
Reserve Fund Obligation and any such Reserve Fund Obligation must be submitted to the
Attorney General of Texas (if submission is then required by law) for approval.
(e) If the Town is required to make a withdrawal from the Reserve Fund for any of the
purposes described in this Section, the Town shall promptly notify the issuer of such Reserve
Fund Obligation of the necessity for a withdrawal from the Reserve Fund for any such purposes,
and shall make such withdrawal FIRST from available moneys or Permitted Investments then on
deposit in the Reserve Fund, and NEXT from a drawing under any Reserve Fund Obligation to
the extent of such deficiency.
(f) In the event there is a draw upon the Reserve Fund Obligation, the Town shall
reimburse the issuer of such Reserve Fund Obligation for such draw, in accordance with the
terms of any agreement pursuant to which the Reserve Fund Obligation is used, from Pledged
Revenues, however, such reimbursement from Pledged Revenues shall be in accordance with the
provisions of Section 9 hereof and shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the
payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the then outstanding Bonds
Similarly Secured.
(g) The Town may create and establish a debt service reserve fund pursuant to the
provisions of any ordinance or other instrument authorizing the issuance of Bonds Similarly
Secured for the purpose of securing that particular issue or series of Bonds Similarly Secured or
any specific group of issues or series of Bonds Similarly Secured (including the combining of
debt service reserve funds for Bonds Similarly Secured so long as the requirements of each
ordinance authorizing such Bonds Similarly Secured are satisfied), and the amounts once
deposited or credited to said debt service reserve funds shall no longer constitute Pledged
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 15
Revenues and shall be held solely for the benefit of the owners of the particular Bonds Similarly
Secured for which such debt service reserve fund was established. Each debt service reserve
fund shall receive a pro rata amount of the Pledged Revenues after the requirements of the Bond
Fund, which secures all Bonds Similarly Secured, have first been met. Each such debt service
reserve fund shall be designated in such manner as is necessary to identify the Bonds Similarly
Secured it secures and to distinguish such debt service reserve fund from the debt service reserve
funds created for the benefit of other Bonds Similarly Secured. Each ordinance authorizing the
issuance of Bonds Similarly Secured that are to be secured by a debt service reserve fund shall
specify the amount or a manner of calculating the amount to be held and maintained on deposit
therein.
(h) The Designated Financial Officer shall recalculate the Required Reserve at the
following times: (i) on the first day of each Fiscal Year, (ii) upon the issuance of Additional
Bonds, to the extent such Additional Bonds will be secured by the Reserve Fund, (iii) upon the
refunding or defeasance of the Bonds or any Additional Bonds secured by the Reserve Fund and
(iv) upon the deposit, supplement, replacement or substitution of a Reserve Fund Obligation
(each of the foregoing, a "Required Reserve Recalculation").
Section 12. INVESTMENTS; SECURITY FOR FUNDS.
(a) Money in any fund established pursuant to this Ordinance may, at the option of the
Town, be invested in investments authorized by the Public Funds Investment Act, Chapter 2256,
Texas government Code, as amended, consistent with the investment policy approved by the
Council; provided that all such deposits and investments shall be made in such manner that the
money required to be expended from any fund will be available at the proper time or times. All
interest and income derived from such deposits and investments immediately shall be credited to,
and any losses debited to, the Fund from which the deposit or investment was made, and
surpluses in any Fund shall or may be disposed of as hereinafter provided. Such investments
shall be sold promptly when necessary to prevent any default in connection with any Bonds
Similarly Secured.
(b) Money in all funds created by this Ordinance, to the extent not invested, shall be
secured in the manner prescribed by law for securing funds of the Town.
Section 13. DEFICIENCIES, EXCESS PLEDGED REVENUES.
(a) If on any occasion there shall not be sufficient Pledged Revenues to make the
required deposits into the Bond Fund and any Reserve Fund, then such deficiency shall be made
up as soon as possible from the next available Pledged Revenues, or at the option of the Town
from any other sources legally available for such purpose.
(b) Subject to making the required deposits to the credit of the Bond Fund and Reserve
Funds, when and as required by this Ordinance, or any ordinances authorizing the issuance of
Additional Bonds, the excess Pledged Revenues may be used by the Town for any lawful
purpose.
Section 14. PAYMENT OF BONDS SIMILARLY SECURED. While any of the Bonds
Similarly Secured are outstanding, the Town shall transfer to the respective paying
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 16
agent/registrar therefor, from funds on deposit in and credited to the Bond Fund, and, if
necessary, in the Reserve Fund with respect to the Bonds, amounts sufficient to fully pay and
discharge promptly the interest on and principal of the Bonds Similarly Secured as shall become
due on each interest or principal payment date, or date of redemption of the Bonds Similarly
Secured; such transfer of funds must be made in such manner as will cause immediately
available funds to be deposited with each respective paying agent/registrar for the Bonds
Similarly Secured not later than the business day next preceding the date such payment is due on
the Bonds Similarly Secured. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall destroy all paid Bonds Similarly
Secured and furnish the Town with an appropriate certificate of cancellation or destruction.
Section 15. ADDITIONAL BONDS.
(a) The Town shall have the right and power at any time and from time to time and in
one or more series or issues, to authorize, issue and deliver Additional Bonds, in accordance with
law, in any amounts, for purposes of extending, improving or repairing the System or for the
purpose of refunding of any Bonds Similarly Secured, Subordinate Lien Obligations or other
obligations of the Town incurred in connection with the ownership or operation of the System.
Such Additional Bonds, if and when authorized, issued and delivered in accordance with this
Ordinance, shall be secured by and made payable equally and ratably on a parity with all other
Bonds Similarly Secured at the time outstanding and unpaid, from a first lien on and pledge of
the Pledged Revenues herein granted.

ordinance under which Additional Bonds are issued shall provide and require that, in addition to
the amounts required by the provisions of this Ordinance and the provisions of any other

Fund, the Town shall deposit to the credit of the Bond Fund at least such amounts as are required
for the payment of all principal of and interest on said Additional Bonds then being issued, as the
same come due.
(c) Additional Bonds shall be issued only in accordance with this Ordinance, but
notwithstanding any provisions of this Ordinance to the contrary, no installment, series or issue
of Additional Bonds shall be issued or delivered unless:
(i) The Designated Financial Officer shall have executed a certificate stating
(A) (i) that, to the best of such person's knowledge and belief, the Town is not then in
default as to any covenant or requirement contained in any ordinance authorizing the
issuance of outstanding Bonds Similarly Secured, and (ii) payments into all special funds
or accounts created and established for the payment and security of all outstanding Bonds
Similarly Secured have been made and that the amounts on deposit in such special funds
or accounts are the amounts then required to be on deposit therein or (B) the application
of the proceeds of sale of such obligations then being issued will cure any such default or
deficiency; and
(ii) The Designated Financial Officer shall have executed a certificate stating that
based on the books and records of the Town, during either the preceding Year, or any
twelve (12) consecutive months out of the fifteen (15) months immediately preceding the
date of the then proposed Additional Bonds, the Net Earnings are at least equal to 1.25
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 17
times the Average Annual Debt Service Requirements (computed on a fiscal year basis)
and 1.10 times the Maximum Annual Debt Service Requirements of the Bonds Similarly
Secured to be outstanding after the issuance of the then proposed Additional Bonds.
(d) In making a determination of Net Earnings for any of the purposes described in this
Section, the Designated Financial Officer may take into consideration a change in the rates and
charges for services and facilities afforded by the System that became effective at least sixty (60)
days prior to the date the ordinance authorizing the issuance of the Additional Bonds is adopted
and, for purposes of satisfying the Net Earnings tests described above, make a pro forma
determination of the Net Earnings of the System for the period of time covered by said
Designated Financial Officer's certification or opinion based on such change in rates and charges
being in effect for the entire period covered by said Designated Financial Officer's certificate or
opinion.
(e) Bonds Similarly Secured may be refunded (pursuant to any law then available) upon
such terms and conditions as the Town may deem to be in the best interest of the Town, and the
proposed refunding bonds shall be considered as "Additional Bonds" under the provisions of this
Section and the certificate required in subsection (c)(ii) shall give effect to the issuance of the
proposed refunding bonds and shall exclude the bonds being refunded from the calculation of
Average Annual Debt Service Requirements.
(f) All calculations of Average Annual Debt Service Requirements made pursuant to this
Section shall be made as of and from the date of the Additional Bonds then proposed to be
issued.
Section 16. NO ISSUANCE OF OBLIGATIONS SENIOR TO THE BONDS
SIMILARLY SECURED. The Town covenants and agrees that it will not issue any obligations
payable from and secured, in whole or in part, by a lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues,
senior in rank and dignity to the lien on and pledge of such Pledged Revenues securing the
payment of the Bonds Similarly Secured.
Section 17. ISSUANCE OF SUBORDINATE LIEN OBLIGATIONS. The Town
hereby reserves the right to issue, at any time, obligations including, but not limited to,
Subordinate Lien Obligations, payable from and equally and ratably secured, in whole or in part,
by a lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues, subordinate and inferior in rank and dignity to
the lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues securing the payment of the Bonds Similarly
Secured, as may be authorized by the laws of the State.
Section 18. ISSUANCE OF SPECIAL PROJECT OBLIGATIONS. The Town reserves
the right to issue Special Project Obligations. Except as otherwise provided in the proceedings

customarily carried by municipal corporations owning and operating similar properties. Nothing
in this Ordinance shall be construed as requiring the Town to expend any funds which are
derived from sources other than the operation of the System but nothing herein shall be
construed as preventing the Town from doing so.
(c) No Free Service. The Town covenants and agrees that no free service of the System
shall be allowed except to institutions and buildings owned and operated by the Town.

independent firm of certified public accountants. Each such audit, in addition to whatever other
matters may be thought proper by the accountant, shall particularly include the following:
(i) A statement of the income and expenditures of the components of the System
for such fiscal year;
(ii) A balance sheet as of the end of such Fiscal Year; and

Maintenance and Operating Expenses of the System and paid as such. Copies of the aforesaid
annual audit shall be immediately furnished, upon written request, to the original purchasers of
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 19
the Bonds and any subsequent Owner.
(e) Sale or Lease of Pro 'es. The Town, to the extent and in the manner authorized by
law, may sell or exchange for consideration representing the fair value thereof, as determined by
the Council, any property not necessary or required in the efficient operations of the System, or

will prohibit the operation of any waterworks or wastewater system other than those operated by
the Town.
(g) Further Covenants. The Town further covenants and agrees by and through this
Ordinance as follows:

Bonds and has lawfully exercised said power under the Constitution and laws of the State
of Texas, including power existing under Chapter 1502;
(ii) That other than for the Bonds, the Pledged Revenues have not been pledged
in any manner to the payment of any debt or obligation of the Town, nor of the System,
which is senior to or on a parity with the pledge of the Pledged Revenues to Bonds
Similarly Secured;
(iii) It will duly and punctually keep, observe and perform each and every
undertaking, covenant and condition on its part to be kept, observed and performed,
contained in this Ordinance and in the ordinances authorizing the Previously Issued
Bonds and any Additional Bonds, and that it will prior to the maturity of each installment
of interest and prior to the maturity of each Bond, Previously Issued Bond and Additional
Bond issued thereunder, make available at the principal office of the Paying
Agent/Registrar, but only from the sources herein provided, sufficient funds to promptly
pay such principal and interest; and
(iv) The Town will comply with all of the terms and conditions of any and all
franchises, permits and authorizations applicable to or necessary with respect to the
System, and which have been obtained from any governmental agency; and the Town has
or will obtain and keep in full force and effect all franchises, permits, authorizations and
other requirements applicable to or necessary with respect to the acquisition,
construction, equipment, operation and maintenance of the System.
Section 20. DEFEASANCE OF BONDS. (a) Any Bond and the interest thereon shall be
deemed to be paid, retired, and no longer outstanding (a "Defeased Bond") within the meaning of
this Ordinance, except to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section, when payment of
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 20
the principal of such Bond, plus interest thereon to the due date (whether such due date be by
reason of maturity or otherwise) either (i) shall have been made or caused to be made in
accordance with the terms thereof, or (ii) shall have been provided for on or before such due date
by irrevocably depositing with or making available to the Paying Agent/Registrar in accordance
with an agreement or other instrument (the "Future Escrow Agreement") for such payment
(1) lawful money of the United States of America sufficient to make such payment or
(2) Defeasance Securities that mature as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such
times as will insure the availability, without reinvestment, of sufficient money to provide for
such payment, and when proper arrangements have been made by the Town with the Paying
Agent/Registrar for the payment of its services until all Defeased Bonds shall have become due
and payable. At such time as a Bond shall be deemed to be a Defeased Bond hereunder, as
aforesaid, such Bond and the interest thereon shall no longer be secured by, payable from, or
entitled to the benefits of, the System revenues herein pledged as provided in this Ordinance, and
such principal and interest shall be payable solely from such money or Defeasance Securities,
and thereafter the Town will have no further responsibility with respect to amounts available to
the Paying Agent/Registrar (or other financial institution permitted by applicable law) for the
payment of such Defeased Bonds, including any insufficiency therein caused by the failure of the
Paying Agent/Registrar (or other financial institution permitted by applicable law) to receive
payment when due on the Defeasance Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Ordinance to the contrary, it is hereby provided that any determination not to redeem Defeased
Bonds that is made in conjunction with the payment arrangements specified in subsections (a)(i)
or (ii) of this Section shall not be irrevocable, provided that (1) in the proceedings providing for
such payment arrangements, the Town expressly reserves the right to call the Defeased Bonds
for redemption; (2) gives notice of the reservation of that right to the owners of the Defeased
Bonds immediately following the making of the payment arrangements; and (3) directs that
notice of the reservation be included in any redemption notices that it authorizes.
(b) Any moneys so deposited with the Paying Agent/Registrar may at the written
direction of the Town also be invested in Defeasance Securities, maturing in the amounts and
times as hereinbefore set forth, and all income from such Defeasance Securities received by the
Paying Agent/Registrar that is not required for the payment of the Bonds and interest thereon,
with respect to which such money has been so deposited, shall be turned over to the Town, or
deposited as directed in writing by the Town. Any Future Escrow Agreement pursuant to which
the money and/or Defeasance Securities are held for the payment of Defeased Bonds may
contain provisions permitting the investment or reinvestment of such moneys in Defeasance
Securities or the substitution of other Defeasance Securities upon the satisfaction of the
requirements specified in subsections (a)(i) or (ii) of this Section. All income from such
Defeasance Securities received by the Paying Agent/Registrar which is not required for the
payment of the Defeased Bonds, with respect to which such money has been so deposited, shall
be remitted to the Town or deposited as directed in writing by the Town.
(c) Until all Defeased Bonds shall have become due and payable, the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall perform the services of Paying Agent/Registrar for such Defeased Bonds
the same as if they had not been defeased, and the Town shall make proper arrangements to
provide and pay for such services as required by this Ordinance.
(d) In the event that the Town elects to defease less than all of the principal amount of
Bonds of a maturity, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall select, or cause to be selected, such
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 21
amount of Bonds by such random method as it deems fair and appropriate
Section 21. DAMAGED, MUTILATED, LOST, STOLEN, OR DESTROYED
BONDS. (a) Replacement Bonds. In the event any outstanding Bond is damaged, mutilated,
lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall cause to be printed, executed, and
delivered, a new bond of the same principal amount, maturity, and interest rate, as the damaged,
mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed Bond, in replacement for such Bond in the manner
hereinafter provided.
(b) Application for Replacement Bonds. Application for replacement of damaged,
mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed Bonds shall be made by the registered owner thereof to the
Paying Agent/Registrar. In every case of loss, theft, or destruction of a Bond, the registered
owner applying for a replacement bond shall furnish to the Town and to the Paying
Agent/Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them
harmless from any loss or damage with respect thereto. Also, in every case of loss, theft, or
destruction of a Bond, the registered owner shall furnish to the Town and to the Paying
Agent/Registrar evidence to their satisfaction of the loss, theft, or destruction of such Bond. In
every case of damage or mutilation of a Bond, the registered owner shall surrender to the Paying
Agent/Registrar for cancellation the Bond so damaged or mutilated.
(c) No Default Occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section,
in the event any such Bond shall have matured, and no default has occurred which is then
continuing in the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bond, the Town may authorize
the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a damaged or mutilated
Bond) instead of issuing a replacement Bond, provided security or indemnity is furnished as
above provided in this Section.
(d) Charge for Issuing Replacement Bonds. Prior to the issuance of any replacement
bond, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall charge the registered owner of such Bond with all legal,
printing, and other expenses in connection therewith. Every replacement bond issued pursuant to
the provisions of this Section by virtue of the fact that any Bond is lost, stolen, or destroyed shall
constitute a contractual obligation of the Town whether or not the lost, stolen, or destroyed Bond
shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of
this Ordinance equally and proportionately with any and all other Bonds duly issued under this
Ordinance.
(e) Authority for Issuing Replacement Bonds. In accordance with Subchapter B of
Chapter 1206, this Section shall constitute authority for the issuance of any such replacement
bond without necessity of further action by the governing body of the Town or any other body or
person, and the duty of the replacement of such bonds is hereby authorized and imposed upon
the Paying Agent/Registrar, and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall authenticate and deliver such
Bonds in the form and manner and with the effect, as provided in this Ordinance for Bonds
issued in conversion and exchange for other Bonds.

Section 23. COVENANTS REGARDING TAX EXEMPTION OF INTEREST ON THE
BONDS. (a) Covenants. The Town covenants to take any action necessary to assure, or refrain
from any action which would adversely affect, the treatment of the Bonds as obligations
described in section 103 of the Code, the interest on which is not includable in the "gross
income" of the holder for purposes of federal income taxation. In furtherance thereof, the Town
covenants as follows:
(i) to take any action to assure that no more than 10 percent of the proceeds
of the Bonds or the projects financed therewith (less amounts deposited to a reserve fund,
if any) are used for any "private business use," as defined in section 141(b)(6) of the
Code or, if more than 10 percent of the proceeds or the projects financed therewith are so
used, such amounts, whether or not received by the Town, with respect to such private
business use, do not, under the terms of this Ordinance or any underlying arrangement,
directly or indirectly, secure or provide for the payment of more than 10 percent of the
debt service on the Bonds, in contravention of section 141(b)(2) of the Code;
(ii) to take any action to assure that in the event that the "private business use"
described in subsection (1) hereof exceeds 5 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or the
projects financed therewith (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) then the
amount in excess of 5 percent is used for a "private business use" which is "related" and
not "disproportionate," within the meaning of section 141(b)(3) of the Code, to the
governmental use;
(iii) to take any action to assure that no amount which is greater than the lesser
of $5,000,000, or 5 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds (less amounts deposited into a
reserve fund, if any) is directly or indirectly used to finance loans to persons, other than
state or local governmental units, in contravention of section 141(c) of the Code;
(iv) to refrain from taking any action which would otherwise result in the
Bonds being treated as "private activity bonds" within the meaning of section 141(b) of
the Code;
(v) to refrain from taking any action that would result in the Bonds being
"federally guaranteed" within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code;
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 23
(vi) to refrain from using any portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, directly or
indirectly, to acquire or to replace funds which were used, directly or indirectly, to
acquire investment property (as defined in section 148(b)(2) of the Code) which produces
a materially higher yield over the term of the Bonds, other than investment property
acquired with:
(A) proceeds of the Bonds invested for a reasonable temporary period
of 5 years or less or, in the case of a refunding bond, for a period of 90 days or
less until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the bonds are
issued,
(B) amounts invested in a bona fide debt service fund, within the
meaning of section 1.148 1(b) of the Treasury Regulations, and
(C) amounts deposited in any reasonably required reserve or
replacement fund to the extent such amounts do not exceed 10 percent of the
proceeds of the Bonds;
(vii) to otherwise restrict the use of the proceeds of the Bonds or amounts
treated as proceeds of the Bonds, as may be necessary, so that the Bonds do not otherwise
contravene the requirements of section 148 of the Code (relating to arbitrage);
(viii) to refrain from using the proceeds of the Bonds or proceeds of any prior
bonds to pay debt service on another issue more than 90 days after the date of issue of the
Bonds in contravention of the requirements of section 149(d) of the Code (relating to
advance refundings);
(ix) to pay to the United States of America at least once during each five-year
period (beginning on the date of delivery of the Bonds) an amount that is at least equal to
90 percent of the "Excess Earnings," within the meaning of section 148(f) of the Code
and to pay to the United States of America, not later than 60 days after the Bonds have
been paid in full, 100 percent of the amount then required to be paid as a result of Excess
Earnings under section 148(f) of the Code; and
(x) to establish reasonable expectations to prevent using the proceeds of the
Bonds in contravention of the requirements of section 149(g) of the Code (relating to
hedge bonds).
(b) Rebate Fund. In order to facilitate compliance with the above covenant (8), a
"Rebate Fund" is hereby established by the Town for the sole benefit of the United States of
America, and such fund shall not be subject to the claim of any other person, including without
limitation the bondholders. The Rebate Fund is established for the additional purpose of
compliance with section 148 of the Code.
(c) Use of Proceeds. The Town understands that the term "proceeds" includes
"disposition Use
as defined in the Treasury Regulations and, in the case of refunding
` bonds, transferred proceeds (if any) and proceeds of the refunded bonds expended prior to the
date of issuance of the Bonds. It is the understanding of the Town that the covenants contained
Ordinance 2026-33, Page 24
herein are intended to assure compliance with the Code and any regulations or rulings
promulgated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury pursuant thereto. In the event that
regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated which modify or expand provisions of the Code,
as applicable to the Bonds, the Town will not be required to comply with any covenant contained
herein to the extent that such failure to comply, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond
counsel, will not adversely affect the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the
Bonds under section 103 of the Code. In the event that regulations or rulings are hereafter
promulgated which impose additional requirements which are applicable to the Bonds, the Town
agrees to comply with the additional requirements to the extent necessary, in the opinion of
nationally recognized bond counsel, to preserve the exemption from federal income taxation of
interest on the Bonds under section 103 of the Code. In furtherance of such intention, the Town
hereby authorizes and directs the Authorized Officials to execute any documents, certificates or
reports required by the Code and to make such elections, on behalf of the Town, which may be
permitted by the Code as are consistent with the purpose for the issuance of the Bonds.
(d) Allocation of and Limitation on Expenditures for the Project. The Town
covenants to account for the expenditure of sale proceeds and investment earnings to be used for
the Project on its books and records in accordance with the requirements of the Code. The Town
recognizes that in order for the proceeds to be considered used for the reimbursement of costs,
the proceeds must be allocated to expenditures within 18 months of the later of the date that (1)
the expenditure is made, or (2) the Project is completed; but in no event later than three years
after the date on which the original expenditure is paid. The foregoing notwithstanding, the
Town recognizes that in order for proceeds to be expended under the Code, the sale proceeds or
investment earnings must be expended no more than 60 days after the earlier of (1) the fifth
anniversary of the Delivery Date, or (2) the date the Bonds are retired. The Town agrees to
obtain the advice of nationally -recognized bond counsel if such expenditure fails to comply with
the foregoing to assure that such expenditure will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of
the Bonds. For purposes hereof, the Town shall not be obligated to comply with this covenant if
it obtains an opinion that such failure to comply will not adversely affect the excludability for
federal income tax purposes from gross income of the interest.
(e) Disposition of the Project. The Town covenants that the property constituting the
Project will not be sold or otherwise disposed in a transaction resulting in the receipt by the
Town of cash or other compensation, unless any action taken in connection with such disposition
will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Bonds. For purpose of the foregoing, the
Town may rely on an opinion of nationally -recognized bond counsel that the action taken in
connection with such sale or other disposition will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of
the Bonds. For purposes of the foregoing, the portion of the property comprising personal
property and disposed in the ordinary course shall not be treated as a transaction resulting in the
receipt of cash or other compensation. For purposes hereof, the Town shall not be obligated to
comply with this covenant if it obtains an opinion that such failure to comply will not adversely
affect the excludability for federal income tax purposes from gross income of the interest.

by the Registered Owner who gave such consent, or by a successor in title, by filing notice with

interest thereon from the [Delivery Date], on [February 15, 2027 and on each August 15 and

authenticated and the date of its authentication is later than the first Record Date (hereinafter
defined), such principal amount shall bear interest from the interest payment date next preceding
the date of authentication, unless such date of authentication is after any Record Date but on or
before the next following interest payment date, in which case such principal amount shall bear
interest from such next following interest payment date; provided, however, that if on the date of

Bond shall be paid to the registered owner hereof upon presentation and surrender of this Bond at
maturity, or upon the date fixed for its redemption prior to maturity, at the designated corporate
trust office of U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, Dallas, Texas, which is the
"Paying Agent/Registrar" for this Bond. The payment of interest on this Bond shall be made by
the Paying Agent/Registrar to the registered owner hereof on each interest payment date by
check or draft, dated as of such interest payment date, drawn by the Paying Agent/Registrar on,
and payable solely from, funds of the Town required by the ordinance authorizing the issuance of
the Bonds (the 'Bond Ordinance") to be on deposit with the Paying Agent/Registrar for such
purpose as hereinafter provided; and such check or draft shall be sent by the Paying
Agent/Registrar by United States mail, first-class postage prepaid, on each such interest payment
date, to the registered owner hereof, at its address as it appeared on the last business day of the
month next preceding each such date (the "Record Date") on the Registration Books kept by the
Paying Agent/Registrar, as hereinafter described. In addition, interest may be paid by such other
method, acceptable to the Paying Agent/Registrar, requested by, and at the risk and expense of,
the registered owner. In the event of a non-payment of interest on a scheduled payment date, and
for 30 days thereafter, a new record date for such interest payment (a "Special Record Date") will
be established by the Paying Agent/Registrar, if and when funds for the payment of such interest
have been received from the Town. Notice of the Special Record Date and of the scheduled
payment date of the past due interest (which shall be 15 days after the Special Record Date) shall
be sent at least five business days prior to the Special Record Date by United States mail, first-
class postage prepaid, to the address of each owner of a Bond appearing on the Registration
Books at the close of business on the last business day next preceding the date of mailing of such
notice. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to
such terms in the Bond Ordinance.
ANY ACCRUED INTEREST due at maturity or upon the redemption of this Bond prior
to maturity as provided herein shall be paid to the registered owner upon presentation and
surrender of this Bond for payment at the principal corporate trust office of the Paying
Agent/Registrar. The Town covenants with the registered owner of this Bond that on or before
each principal payment date and interest payment date for this Bond it will make available to the
Paying Agent/Registrar, from the "Bond Fund" created by the Bond Ordinance, the amounts
required to provide for the payment, in immediately available funds, of all principal of and
interest on the Bonds, when due.
IF THE DATE for any payment due on this Bond shall be a Saturday, Sunday, a legal
holiday, or a day on which banking institutions in the city where the principal corporate trust
office of the Paying Agent/Registrar is located are authorized by law or executive order to close,
then the date for such payment shall be the next succeeding day which is not such a Saturday,
Sunday, legal holiday, or day on which banking institutions are authorized to close, and payment
on such date shall have the same force and effect as if made on the original date payment was
due.
THIS BOND is dated , 2026, and is authorized in accordance with the Constitution
and laws of the State of Texas in the principal amount of $ for the acquisition,
A-2
construction, installation and equipment of additions, improvements and extensions to the
Town's waterworks and sewer system and paying the costs incurred in connection with the
issuance of the Bonds.
ON AUGUST 15, 20_, or on any date thereafter, the Bonds may be redeemed prior to
their scheduled maturities, at the option of the Town, with funds derived from any available and
lawful source, as a whole, or in part, and, if in part, the particular Bonds, or portions thereof, to
be redeemed shall be selected and designated by the Town (provided that a portion of a Bond
may be redeemed only in an integral multiple of $5,000), at a redemption price equal to the
principal amount to be redeemed plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption.
AT LEAST 30 days prior to the date fixed for any redemption of Bonds or portions
thereof prior to maturity a written notice of such redemption shall be sent by the Paying
Agent/Registrar by United States mail, first-class postage prepaid, to the registered owner of
each Bond to be redeemed at its address as it appeared at the close of business on the day of
mailing such notice; provided, however, that the failure of the registered owner to receive such
notice, or any defect therein or in the sending or mailing thereof, shall not affect the validity or
effectiveness of the proceedings for the redemption of any Bond. By the date fixed for any such
redemption, due provision shall be made with the Paying Agent/Registrar for the payment of the
required redemption price for the Bonds or portions thereof which are to be so redeemed. If such
written notice of redemption is sent and if due provision for such payment is made, all as
provided above, the Bonds or portions thereof which are to be so redeemed thereby
automatically shall be treated as redeemed prior to their scheduled maturities, and they shall not
bear interest after the date fixed for redemption, and they shall not be regarded as being
outstanding except for the right of the registered owner to receive the redemption price from the
Paying Agent/Registrar out of the funds provided for such payment. If a portion of any Bond
shall be redeemed a substitute Bond or Bonds having the same maturity date, bearing interest at
the same rate, in any denomination or denominations in any integral multiple of $5,000, at the
written request of the registered owner, and in aggregate amount equal to the unredeemed
portion thereof, will be issued to the registered owner upon the surrender thereof for cancellation,
at the expense of the Town, all as provided in the Bond Ordinance.
WITH RESPECT TO ANY OPTIONAL REDEMPTION OF THE BONDS, unless
certain prerequisites to such redemption required by the Bond Ordinance have been met and
moneys sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to be
redeemed shall have been received by the Paying Agent/Registrar prior to the giving of such
notice of redemption, such notice may state that said redemption may, at the option of the Town,
be conditional upon the satisfaction of such prerequisites and receipt of such moneys by the
Paying Agent/Registrar on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or upon any
prerequisite set forth in such notice of redemption. If a conditional notice of redemption is given
and such prerequisites to the redemption and sufficient moneys are not received, such notice
shall be of no force and effect, the Town shall not redeem such Bonds and the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall give notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, to
the effect that the Bonds have not been redeemed.
ALL BONDS OF THIS SERIES are issuable solely as fully registered Bonds, without
A-3
interest coupons, in the denomination of any integral multiple of $5,000. As provided in the
Bond Ordinance, this Bond may, at the request of the registered owner or the assignee or
assignees hereof, be assigned, transferred, converted into and exchanged for a like aggregate
amount of fully registered Bonds, without interest coupons, payable to the appropriate registered
owner, assignee or assignees, as the case may be, having any authorized denomination or
denominations as requested in writing by the appropriate registered owner, assignee or assignees,
as the case may be, upon surrender of this Bond to the Paying Agent/Registrar for cancellation,
all in accordance with the form and procedures set forth in the Bond Ordinance. Among other
requirements for such assignment and transfer, this Bond must be presented and surrendered to
the Paying Agent/Registrar, together with proper instruments of assignment, in form and with
guarantee of signatures satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar, evidencing assignment of this
Bond or any portion or portions hereof in any authorized denomination to the assignee or
assignees in whose name or names this Bond or any such portion or portions hereof is or are to
be registered. The form of Assignment printed or endorsed on this Bond may be executed by the
registered owner to evidence the assignment hereof, but such method is not exclusive, and other
instruments of assignment satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar may be used to evidence
the assignment of this Bond or any portion or portions hereof from time to time by the registered
owner. The Paying Agent/Registrar's reasonable standard or customary fees and charges for
assigning, transferring, converting and exchanging any Bond or portion thereof will be paid by
the Town. In any circumstance, any taxes or governmental charges required to be paid with
respect thereto shall be paid by the one requesting such assignment, transfer, conversion or
exchange, as a condition precedent to the exercise of such privilege. The Paying Agent/Registrar
shall not be required to make any such transfer or exchange of any Bonds during the period
commencing with the close of business on any Record Date and ending with the opening of
business on the next following principal or interest payment date or, with respect to any Bond or
any portion thereof called for redemption prior to maturity, within 30 days prior to its redemption
date.
IN THE EVENT any Paying Agent/Registrar for the Bonds is changed by the Town,
resigns, or otherwise ceases to act as such, the Town has covenanted in the Bond Ordinance that
it promptly will appoint a competent and legally qualified substitute therefor, and cause written
notice thereof to be mailed to the registered owners of the Bonds.
IT IS HEREBY certified, recited and covenanted that this Bond has been duly and validly
authorized, issued and delivered; that all acts, conditions and things required or proper to be
performed, exist and be done precedent to or in the authorization, issuance and delivery of this

provisions securing the payment of this Bond and the series of which it is one.

revenue obligations equally secured by a lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues on a parity
with the Bonds of this issue; provided, however, that any and all such additional parity
obligations may be issued only in accordance with and subject to the covenants, conditions,
limitations and restrictions relating thereto which are set out and contained in the Ordinance, to
which reference is hereby made for more complete and full particulars.
THE HOLDER HEREOF shall never have the right to demand payment of this obligation
out of any funds raised or to be raised by taxation.
BY BECOMING the registered owner of this Bond, the registered owner thereby
acknowledges all of the terms and provisions of the Bond Ordinance, agrees to be bound by such
terms and provisions, acknowledges that the Bond Ordinance is duly recorded and available for
inspection in the official minutes and records of the governing body of the Town, and agrees that
the terms and provisions of this Bond and the Bond Ordinance constitute a contract between each
registered owner hereof and the Town.

Exhibit "G"
CERTIFICATE OF ELECTION PURSUANT TO SECTION 148(f)(4XC)
OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986
I, the undersigned, being the duly authorized representative of the Town of Prosper, Texas (the "Issuer")
hereby state that the Issuer elects the provisions of section 148(f)(4)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the
"Code"), relating to the exception to arbitrage rebate for temporary investments, as more specifically designated
below, with respect to the Issuer's Waterworks and Sewer System Revenue Bonds, Series 2026 (the "Bonds") which
are being issued on the date of delivery of the Bonds. The CUSIP Number for the Bonds is stated on the Form 8038-
G filed in connection with the Bonds. The Issuer intends to take action to comply with the two-year temporary
investments exception to rebate afforded construction bonds under section 148(f)(4)(C) of the Code or any of the other
exceptions available to the Issuer in accordance with section 1.148-7 of the Treasury Regulations. Capitalized terms
have the same meaning as defined in the Federal Tax Certificate.
® 1. PENALTY ELECTION. In the event that the Issuer should fail to expend the
"available construction proceeds" of the Bonds in accordance with the provisions of section
148(f)(4)(C) of the Code, the Issuer elects, in lieu of rebate, the penalty provisions of section
148(f)(4)(C)(vii)(I) of the Code.
® 2. RESERVE FUND ELECTION. The Issuer elects to exclude from "available
construction proceeds," within the meaning of section 148(f)(4)(C)(vi) of the Code, of the Bonds,
earnings on the Reserve Fund in accordance with section 148(f)(4)(C)(vi)(IV) of the Code.
® 3. MULTIPURPOSE ELECTION. The Issuer elects to treat that portion of the Bonds
the proceeds of which are to be used for the payment of expenditures for construction, reconstruction
or rehabilitation of the Projects, as defined in the instrument authorizing the issuance of the Bonds,
in an amount which is currently expected to be equal to $ as a separate issue in
accordance with the provisions of section 148(f)(4)(C)(v)(II) of the Code. (Note: This election is
not necessary unless less than 75 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used for
construction, reconstruction or renovation.)
® 4. ACTUAL FACTS. For purposes of determining compliance with section 148(f)(4)(c)
of the Code (other than qualification of the Bonds as a qualified construction issue), the Issuer elects
to use actual facts rather than reasonable expectations.
M 5. NO ELECTION.
The Issuer understands that the elections which are adopted as evidenced by the check in the box
adjacent to the applicable provision are irrevocable. Further, the Issuer understands that qualification of the
Bonds for eligibility for the exclusion from the rebate requirement set forth in section 148(f) of the Code is
based on subsequent events and is unaffected by the Issuer's expectations of such events as of the date of
delivery of the Bonds. Accordin, I . while fallure to execute this certificate and to designate lire intended
election does not preclude qualification, it would preclude the Issuer from the relief afforded by such
election.
