Sec. 13. Sewage Works Sinkinq Fund. (a) There is hereby

#Sewage Works Sinking Fund" or "Sinking Fund#). There shall be
set aside and deposited in the Sinking Fund, as available, and as
hereinafter provided, a sufficient amount of the Net Revenues of
the sewage works to meet the requirements of the Bond and Interest
Account and Reserve Account hereby created in the Sinking Fund.
Such payments shall continue until the balance in the Bond and
Interest Account and the Reserve Account, equal the principal of
and interest on all of the then outstanding bonds of the sewage
works to the final maturity and provide for payment of all fiscal
agency charges.
(b) Bond and Interest Account. Any moneys heretofore
accumulated to pay principal of and interest on the Refunded Bonds
shall be credited to and become a part of the Escrow Account under
the Escrow Agreement and shall be applied on the first payment
made from the Escrow Account. Beginning as of the date of

bonds payable on the then next succeeding principal payment date
until the amount of interest and principal payable on the then

charges.
(c) Reserve Account. The city shall, on the date of
delivery of the Refunding Bonds, deposit available and
unrestricted funds of the sewage works and funds from the reserve
provided for in the Sinking Fund of the Refunded Bonds, into the
Reserve Account in an amount equal to the least of (i) maximum
annual debt service on the Refunding Bonds (ii) 125% of average
annual debt service on the Refunding Bonds or (iii) 10% of the
proceeds of the Refunding Bonds ("Reserve Requirement"). The
balance in the Reserve Account shall never exceed the Reserve
Requirement. The Reserve Account shall constitute the margin for
safety and protection against default in the payment of principal
of and interest on the Refunding Bonds, and the moneys in the
Reserve Account shall be used to pay current principal and
interest on the Refunding Bonds to the extent the moneys in the
Bond and Interest Account are insufficient for that purpose. Any
deficiency in the balance maintained in the Reserve Account shall
-24-
L:BONDS:J:Jeffersonville SW A

be made up from the next available Net Revenues remaining after
credits into the Bond and Interest Account. Any moneys in the
Reserve Account in excess of the Reserve Requirement may, in the
discretion of the Board of Public Works and Safety, be transferred
to the Improvement Fund or be used for the purchase of outstanding
bonds or installments of principal of fully registered Refunding
Bonds at a price not exceeding par and accrued interest.
Sec. 14. Sewage Works Improvement Fund. (a) Any excess
revenues may be transferred or credited from the Revenue Fund to a
fund designated the "Sewage Works Improvement Fund," and said Fund
shall be used for improvements, replacements, additions and
extensions of the sewage works. As of the date of the delivery of
the Refunding Bonds, any other available and unrestricted moneys
of the sewage works not otherwise deposited pursuant to the terms
of this ordinance shall be transferred to the Improvement Fund and
used for sewage works capital improvements or for any other lawful
purpose. Moneys in the Sewage Works Improvement Fund shall be

the then outstanding bonds or, if necessary, to eliminate any
deficiencies in credits to or minimum balance in the Reserve
Account of the Sewage Works sinking Fund or may be transferred to
the Operation and Maintenance Fund to meet unforeseen
contingencies in the operation, repair and maintenance of the

Sec. 15. Reversion of Flow of Funds. Simultaneously with

the funds and accounts established pursuant to the Existing
ordinance shall be used as set forth in the Escrow Agreement and
transferred and deposited into the Funds and Accounts established
by this ordinance as provided in Sections 11, 12, 13 and 14
hereof. Thereafter, all such transferred moneys and investments,
together with revenues of the sewage works, shall be applied by
the city in accordance with the terms of this ordinance so long as
the cash and Government Obligations on deposit in the Escrow Fund
are available and sufficient to pay when due the principal of and
interest on the Refunded Bonds. In the event that the cash and
Government Obligations, together with any increment thereto and
interest earned thereon, will not be sufficient to pay when due
all principal of and interest on the Refunded Bonds to and
including their respective final maturities, the city covenants
and agrees that (i) the revenues of the sewage works shall be
applied in accordance with the terms of the ordinance authorizing
the Refunded Bonds, and (ii) the claim of the owners of the
Refunding Bonds is in all respects junior and subordinate to the
rights of the holders of the Refunded Bonds under said ordinance.

L:BONDS:J:Jeffersonville SW A
102490:6:APH
ordinance
single account, or accounts, but such account, or accounts, shall
likewise be maintained separate and apart from all other accounts
of the city and apart from the sinking Fund account or accounts.
All moneys deposited in the accounts shall be deposited, held and
secured as public funds in accordance with the public depository
laws of the State of Indiana; provided that moneys therein may be
invested in obligations in accordance with the applicable laws,
including particularly Indiana Code, Title 5, Article 13, as
amended or supplemented, and in the event of such investment the
income therefrom shall become a part of the funds invested and
shall be used only as provided in this ordinance.
Sec. 17. Defeasance of the Refunding Bonds. If, when the
Refunding Bonds or a portion thereof shall have become due and
payable in accordance with their terms or shall have been duly
called for redemption or irrevocable instructions to call the
Refunding Bonds or a portion thereof for redemption shall have
been given, and the whole amount of the principal and the interest
and the premium, if any, so due and payable upon all of the
Refunding Bonds or a portion thereof then outstanding shall be
paid; or (i) sufficient moneys, or (ii) direct obligations of, or
obligations the principal of and interest on which are
unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States of America, the
principal of and the interest on which when due will provide
sufficient moneys for such purpose, shall be held in trust for
such purpose, and provision shall also be made for paying all fees

Refunding Bonds or any designated portion thereof issued hereunder
shall no longer be deemed outstanding or entitled to the pledge of
the Net Revenues of the City's sewage works.
Sec. 18. Rate Covenant. The city covenants and agrees that
it will establish and maintain just and equitable rates or charges
for the use of and the service rendered by the sewage works, to be
paid by the owner of each and every lot, parcel of real estate or
building that is connected with and uses said sewage works by or
through any part of the sewage system of the city, or that in any
way uses or is served by such works; that such rates or charges
shall be sufficient in each year for the payment of the proper and
reasonable expenses of operation, repair and maintenance of the
sewage works, and for the payment of the sums required to be paid
into the sinking Fund by the Act and this ordinance. Such rates
or charges shall, if necessary, be changed or readjusted from time
to time so that the revenues therefrom shall always be sufficient
to meet the expenses of operation, repair and maintenance of the
sewage works and the requirements of the sinking Fund. The rates
and charges will be maintained at a level sufficient to produce
Net Revenues equal to at least 115% of annual debt service on the
Refunding Bonds, the Improvement Bonds (as hereinafter defined)
and any parity bonds. The rates or charges so established shall
apply to any and all use of such works by and service rendered to
-28-
L:BONDS:J:Jeffersonville SW A

Ordinance
the city and all departments thereof, and shall be paid by the
city or the various departments thereof as the charges accrue.
Sec. 19. Additional Bond Provisions. The city reserves the
right to authorize and issue additional bonds payable out of the
Net Revenues of its sewage works ranking on a parity with the
Refunding Bonds for the purpose of financing the cost of future
additions, extensions and improvements to its sewage works, or to
refund obligations, subject to the following conditions:
(a) All required payments into the Sinking Fund shall have
been made in accordance with the provisions of this ordinance, and
the interest on and principal of all bonds payable from the Net

immediately preceding the issuance of any such bonds ranking on a
parity with the Refunding Bonds shall be not less than one hundred
twenty-five percent (125%) of the maximum annual interest and
principal requirements of the then outstanding bonds and the
additional parity bonds proposed to be issued; or, prior to the
issuance of the parity bonds the sewage rates and charges shall be
increased sufficiently so that the increased rates and charges
applied to the previous year's operations would have produced net
operating revenues for said year equal to not less than one
hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the maximum annual interest
and principal requirements of all bonds payable from the revenues
-29-
L:BONDS:J:Jeffersonville SW A

principal on the additional parity bonds shall be payable annually
on the first day of January.
The city reserves the right to authorize and issue additional
bonds, grant or bond anticipation notes, all of which will be

from the date of delivery of the Refunding Bonds. A debt service
reserve for the said additional bonds commensurate with and
proportional to the Reserve Account created for the Refunding
Bonds under Section 13(c) shall be created and maintained as of
the date of delivery of the additional bonds, such reserve may
either be funded with bond proceeds, funds of the sewage works or

a combination thereof. The grant or bond anticipation notes shall
not require any such reserve.

102490:6:APH
ordinance
1986 as existing on the date of issuance of the Refunding Bonds
(the "Code") and as an inducement to purchasers of the Refunding
Bonds, the city represents, covenants and agrees that:
(a) No person or entity other than the city or another state
or local governmental unit will use proceeds of the Refunding
Bonds or property financed by the Refunding Bond proceeds other
than as a member of the general public. No person or entity other
than the City or another state or local governmental unit will own
property financed by Refunding Bond proceeds or will have any
actual or beneficial use of such property pursuant to a lease,
management or incentive payment contract, arrangements such as
take-or-pay or output contracts or any other type of arrangement
that differentiates that person's or entity's use of such property
from use by the general public.
(b) No portion of the principal of or interest on the
Refunding Bonds is (under the terms of the Refunding Bonds, this
ordinance or any underlying arrangement), directly or indirectly,
secured by an interest in property used or to be used for any
private business use or payments in respect of any private
business use or payments in respect of such property or to be
derived from payments (whether or not to the city) in respect of
such property or borrowed money used or to be used for a private
business use.
(c) No Refunding Bond proceeds will be loaned to any person
or entity other than another state or local governmental unit. No
-37-
L:BONDS:J:Jeffersonville SW A
102490:6:APH
ordinance
Refunding Bond proceeds will be transferred, directly or
indirectly, or deemed transferred to a nongovernmental person in
any manner that would in substance constitute a loan of the
Refunding Bond proceeds.
(d) The city will not take any action nor fail to take any
action with respect to the Refunding Bonds that would result in
the loss of the exclusion from gross income for federal tax
purposes on the Refunding Bonds pursuant to Section 103 of the
Code, nor will the city act in any other manner which would
adversely affect such exclusion.
(e) It shall be not an event of default under this ordinance
if the interest on any Refunding Bond is not excludable from gross
income for federal tax purposes or otherwise pursuant to any
provision of the code which is not currently in effect and in
existence on the date of issuance of the Refunding Bonds.
(f) The city hereby covenants that it will rebate any
arbitrage profits to the United States to the extent required by
the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
(g) These covenants are based solely on current law in
effect and in existence on the date of delivery of such Refunding
Bonds.
(h)
The city represents that:
(1) The Refunding Bonds are not private activity
bonds as defined in Section 141 of the Code;
-38-
L:BONDS:J:Jeffersonville SW A
102490:6:APH
ordinance
(2) The city hereby designates the Refunding Bonds
as qualified tax-exempt obligations for purposes of
Section 265(b) of the code;
(3) The reasonably anticipated amount of qualified
tax-exempt obligations (including qualified
501(c)(3) obligations and tax-exempt leases but
excluding other private activity bonds) which will
be issued by the city and all entities subordinate
to the city during 1990 does not exceed
$10,000,000; and
(4) The city has not designated and will not
designate more than $10,000,000 of qualified tax-
exempt obligations during 1990.
Therefore, the Refunding Bonds qualify for the exception in the
code from the disallowance of 100% of the deduction by financial
institutions of interest expense allocable to newly acquired tax-
exempt obligations.
Sec. 23. Noncompliance with Tax Covenants. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this ordinance, the covenants and
authorization contained in this ordinance (the "Tax Sections")
which are designed to preserve the exclusion of interest on the
Refunding Bonds from gross income under federal law (the "Tax
Exemption") need not be complied with if the city receives an
opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel that any Tax Section
is unnecessary to preserve the Tax Exemption.
