Interest is payable on February 15, 2014 and semiannually on each August 15 and February 15 and thereafter to the date of payment of the principal installment specified above, or the date of redemption prior to maturity; except, that if this Bond is required to be 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 authentication hereof the interest on the Bond or Bonds, if any, for which this Bond is being exchanged is due but has not been paid, then this Bond shall bear interest from the date to which such interest has been paid in full." C. The Initial Bond shall be numbered "T-1." Section 5. INTEREST AND SINKING FUND. A special "Interest and Sinking Fund" is hereby created and shall be established and maintained by the Issuer at an official depository bank of the Issuer. Said Interest and Sinking Fund shall be kept separate and apart from all other funds and accounts of the Issuer, and shall be used only for paying the interest on and principal of the Bonds. All amounts received from the sale of the Bonds as accrued interest and ad valorem taxes levied and collected for and on account of the Bonds shall be deposited, as collected, to the credit of said Interest and Sinking Fund.

CONTINUED PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST, Chapter 1208, Government Code, applies to the issuance of the Bonds and the pledge of the ad valorem taxes granted by the Issuer under Section 5 of this Ordinance, and such pledge is therefore valid, effective, and perfected. If Texas law is amended at any time while the Bonds are outstanding and unpaid such that the pledge of the taxes granted by the Issuer under Section 5 of this Ordinance is to be subject to the filing requirements of Chapter 9, Business& Commerce Code,then in order to preserve to the registered owners of the Bonds the perfection of the security interest in said pledge, the Issuer 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& Commerce Code and enable a filing to perfect the security interest in said pledge to occur.

(d) 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 Issuer shall make proper arrangements to provide and pay for such services as required by this Ordinance. (e) In the event that the Issuer 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 amount of Bonds by such random method as it deems fair and appropriate.

This offer is made subject to the Issuer's written acceptance hereof on or before 10:00 p.m., Prosper, Texas time, on June 25, 2013, and, if not so accepted, will be subject to withdrawal by the Underwriters upon written notice delivered to the Issuer at any time prior to the acceptance hereof by the Issuer. Terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the same meanings set forth in the Ordinance (as defined herein) or in the Official Statement (as defined herein). 1. Purchase and Sale of the Bonds. Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein, the Underwriters hereby agree, jointly and severally, to purchase from the Issuer, and the Issuer hereby agrees to sell and deliver to the Underwriters, all, but not less than all, of the Issuer's $3,830,000 General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2013 (the "Bonds"). Inasmuch as this purchase and sale represents a negotiated transaction, the Issuer acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is an arm's length, commercial transaction between the Issuer and the Underwriters in which the Underwriters are acting solely as principals and are not acting as municipal advisors, financial advisors or fiduciaries to the Issuer; (ii) the Underwriters have 11013:3326832.4 not assumed any advisory or fiduciary responsibility to the Issuer with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby and the discussions, undertakings and procedures leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Underwriters have provided other services or are currently providing other services to the Issuer on other matters); (iii) the Underwriters are acting solely in their capacity as underwriters for their own accounts, (iv) the only obligations the Underwriters have to the Issuer with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby expressly are set forth in this Agreement; and (v) the Issuer has consulted its own legal, accounting, tax, financial and other advisors, as applicable, to the extent it has deemed appropriate. The Representative has been duly authorized to execute this Agreement and to act hereunder. The principal amount of the Bonds to be issued, the dated date therefor, the maturities and redemption provisions and interest rates per annum are set forth in Schedule II hereto. The Bonds shall be as described in, and shall be issued and secured under and pursuant to the provisions of an ordinance adopted by the Issuer on June 25, 2013 (the "Ordinance"). The purchase price for the Bonds shall be $3,972,678.76 (representing the par amount of the Bonds, plus a reoffering premium of $168,874.90 and less an underwriting discount of $26,196.14).

The Underwriters and the Issuer understand that in such event the Issuer's actual damages may be greater or may be less than such amount. Accordingly, the Underwriters hereby waive any right to claim that the Issuer's actual damages are less than such amount, and the Issuer's acceptance of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any right the Issuer may have to additional damages from the Underwriters. The Representative hereby agrees not to stop or cause payment on the check to be stopped unless the Issuer has breached any material term of this Agreement. HOL 3326832.4 2 2. Public Offering.
