then required to be deposited in the Debt Service Account or Reserve Account.
The remainder of any Available Tax Increment installment not required to be
transferred by the Treasurer to the Debt Service Account or Reserve Account shall
not be deemed pledged to the payment of principal or interest on any Bonds and
may be retained in the funds or accounts maintained for the payment of
development or redevelopment costs of the District from which such remaining
Available Tax Increment was derived or applied to debt service on bonds or other
obligations issued and made payable from the corresponding District, or, if so
directed by resolution of EDA, the Treasurer shall transfer the remaining funds to
the Hennepin County Auditor for payment to other taxing jurisdictions or apply the
same to other purposes authorized by law. EDA may from time to time by
resolution direct the Treasurer as to the relative portion of each Available Tax
Increment installment which is to be charged to each District, but in the absence
of such direction the determination shall be made by the Treasurer. In the event
installments of Available Tax Increment from Hennepin County are at any time
received in a manner which does not combine the Available Tax Increment from
the Districts in a single installment or in a manner which results in multiple
installments in any six month period, EDA may direct the Treasurer to make
appropriate bookkeeping transfers among the accounts maintained for each District
to accomplish EDA's objective of specifying the source of payments to the Debt
Service Account or Reserve Account. All income received from the investment of
amounts on deposit in the Debt Service Account or the Reserve Account shall be
credited in the same manner as payments of Tax Increment. From amounts on
deposit in the Debt Service Account the Treasurer shall cause to be paid the
principal of and interest on the Bonds. Moneys in the Debt Service Account shall
be used for no other purpose.
in addition to the foregoing deposits, EDA hereby covenants to maintain from
amounts pledged hereunder, so long as any of the Bonds are outstanding, funds and
11
"gFILMED
investments on deposit in the Reserve Account in an amount up to ten percent
(10%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds on the Remarketing Date,
provided that such amount shall not exceed the lesser of 125% of the average
annual debt service or 100% of the maximum annual debt service on the Bonds
following the Remarketing Date or the amount determined by the Issuer to be a
reasonably required reserve fund ("Reserve Requirement"). Moneys in the Reserve
Account shall be used to the extent needed to pay the principal and interest and
redemption price of the Bonds when due to the extent amounts on deposit in the
Debt Service Account are insufficient for such purpose, and if not so applied, shall
be transferred to the Debt Service Account and used to pay the last payments of
principal due whether at maturity or upon earlier redemption.
In computing the amounts on deposit in the Debt Service Account or Reserve
Account at any time, Qualified Investments, as defined in Section 5.02 hereof, shall
be valued at face value if purchased at par or at the amortized value if purchased
at other than par. For purposes of this Section, "amortized value," when used with
respect to an obligation purchased at a premium above or a discount below par,
means the value as of any given time obtained by dividing the total premium or
discount at which such obligation was purchased by the number of days remaining
to maturity on such obligation at the date of such purchase and by multiplying the
amount thus calculated by the number of days having passed since such purchase;
and (a) in the case of an obligation purchased at a premium by deducting the
product thus obtained from the purchase price, and (b) in the case of an obligation
purchased at a discount by adding the product thus obtained to the purchase price.
Valuation as of any particular date shall include the amount of interest then earned
or accrued to such date on any moneys or investments in the Debt Service Account
or Reserve Account. Amounts in the Debt Service Account and the Reserve
Account shall be transferred to the Rebate Account at the times and in the
amounts required pursuant to Section 6.01.
5.02. Investment of Funds. Any moneys held as a part of the Debt Service
Account shall be invested or reinvested by the Treasurer, to the extent then
permitted by law, in (a) direct obligations of (including obligations issued or held in
book entry form on the books of the Department of the Treasury of the United
States of America), or obligations the principal of and interest on which are
unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States of America; (b) bonds, debentures
or notes or other evidence of indebtedness payable in cash issued by any one or a
combination of any of the following federal agencies whose obligations represent
the full faith and credit of the United States of America: Export Import Bank of
the United States, Federal Financing Bank, Farmer's Home Administration, Federal
Housing Administration, Maritime Administration, Public . Housing Authority,
Government National Mortgage Association; (c) certificates of deposit with
commercial banks, savings association insurance fund, and mutual savings banks
properly secured at all times by collateral security described in (a) and (b) above;
(d) the following investments fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation: (i)
certificates of deposit, (ii) savings accounts, ' (iii) deposit accounts, or (iv)
depository receipts of commercial banks, savings association insurance fund, and
mutual savings banks; or (e) investment agreements approved by the Bond Insurer
("Qualified Investments"). All Qualified Investments in the Debt Service Account,
shall mature on or prior to the next September 1. Investment of funds pursuant to
this Section shall be limited as to amount and yield of investment in such manner
that no part of the outstanding Bonds shall be deemed "arbitrage bonds" under
12
MICROFILMED
Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and regulations
thereunder.
5.03. Other Obligations. EDA may at any time grant a pledge of or lien on
the Available Tax increment of any District or portion thereof which is subordinate
to the pledge to the Bonds under this Resolution. EDA shall not pledge or permit
the pledge of any Available Tax Increment from a District or portion thereof which
is prior to or on a parity with the pledge to the Bonds hereunder.
Section 6. Non -Arbitrage Covenants; General Covenants; Rebate.
6.01. The EDA covenants and agrees with the Purchaser and holders of the
Bonds that (a) the investments of proceeds of the Bonds, including the investment
of any revenues pledged to the Bonds which are considered proceeds under the
applicable regulations, and accumulated sinking funds, if any, shall be limited as to
amount and yield in such manner that the Bonds shall not be arbitrage bonds within
the meaning of Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and
regulations thereunder and (b) to the extent required by law, the EDA will make or
cause to be made annual calculations as to the yield on the Bonds and on invested
amounts pursuant to the Escrow Agreement or in the Project Account and the Debt
Service Account and will rebate to the United States of America any amounts with
respect to the Bonds necessary to be rebated under Section 148 of the Code. There
shall be established a separate, segregated account known as the "Rebate Account"
for the deposit of investment earnings in amounts not less than the rebate amount.
Funds in the Rebate Account shall not be deemed pledged to the Bonds. On the
basis of the existing facts, estimates and circumstances, including the foregoing
findings and covenants, the EDA hereby certifies that it is not expected that the
proceeds of the Bonds will be used in such manner as to cause the Bonds to be
arbitrage bonds under Section 148 of the Code and regulations thereunder. The
President and the Secretary shall furnish an arbitrage certificate to the Purchaser
embracing or based on the foregoing certification at the time of delivery of the
Bonds to the Purchaser. The proceeds of the Bonds will likewise be used in such
manner that the Bonds are not private activity bonds under Section 141 of the
Code.
6.02. The EDA covenants and agrees with the holders from time to time of
the Bonds that it will not take or permit to be taken by any of its officers,
employees or agents any action which would cause the interest on the Bonds to
become subject to taxation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
and the applicable Treasury Regulations, and covenants to take any and all actions
within its powers to ensure that the interest on the Bonds will not become subject
to taxation under the Code and such Treasury Regulations.
6.03. The EDA covenants that it will file with the Internal Revenue Service
the information required under Section 149(e) of the Code.
6.04. The aggregate amount of tax-exempt bonds (other than private
activity bonds) to be issued by the EDA and the City in 1990 will not exceed
$10,000,000. Therefore, the EDA hereby designates the Bonds as qualified tax-
exempt obligations within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3)(B) of the Code.
