may be in such lesser or greater amount as is necessary to pay the balance of principal and
interest then remaining due. Such installment payments shall be made to the registered holder of
the Series 2000 Bond, at its address as it appears on the Bond Register, in lawful money of the
United States of America. The entire proceeds of the Series 2000 Bond shall be advanced by the
Board of Investments and disbursed at closing, and the Board of Investments shall enter that
amount on Schedule A attached to the Series 2000 Bond under "Advances" and under "Total
Amount Advanced."

the Series 2000 Bond. This Section 3.05 shall establish a system of registration for the Series
2000 Bond as defined in the Model Public Obligations Registration Act of Montana, and shall
govern in the event provisions of the Bond Resolution relating to registration, transfer or
exchange of Bonds are inconsistent herewith. The effect of registration and the rights and duties
of the City and the Registrar with respect thereto shall be as follows:
(a) Register. The Registrar shall keep at its principal office a bond register in
which the Registrar shall provide for the registration of ownership of Series 2000 Bond
and the registration of transfers and exchanges thereof.
-13-
(b) Transfer. Upon surrender for transfer of any Series 2000 Bond duly endorsed
by the registered owner thereof or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in
form satisfactory to the Registrar, duly executed by the registered owner thereof or by an
attorney duly authorized by the registered owner in writing, the Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new
Series 2000 Bond of a like aggregate principal amount, interest rate and maturity as
requested by the transferor.
(c) Exchange. Whenever any Series 2000 Bond is surrendered by the registered
owner for exchange, the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver one new Series 2000
Bond of a like aggregate principal amount, interest rate and maturity, as requested by the
registered owner or the owner's attorney in writing.
(d) Cancellation. The Series 2000 Bond surrendered upon any transfer or
exchange shall be promptly cancelled by the Registrar and thereafter disposed of as
directed by the City.
(e) Improper or Unauthorized Transfer. When any Series 2000 Bond is presented
to the Registrar for transfer, the Registrar may refuse to transfer the same until it is
satisfied that the endorsement on such Series 2000 Bond or separate instrument of
transfer is legally authorized. The Registrar shall incur no liability for the refusal, in
good faith, to make transfers which it, in its judgment, deems improper or unauthorized.
(f) Persons Deemed Owners. The City and the Registrar may treat the person in
whose name the Series 2000 Bond is at any time registered in the bond register as the
absolute owner of the Series 2000 Bond, whether the Series 2000 Bond shall be overdue
or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2000 Bond and for all other purposes, and all
such payments so made to any such registered owner or upon the owner's order shall be
valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability of the City upon such Series 2000
Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(g) Taxes, Fees and Charges. For every transfer or exchange of Series 2000
Bond, the Registrar may impose a charge upon the owner thereof sufficient to reimburse
the Registrar for any tax, fee or other governmental charge required to be paid with
respect to such transfer or exchange.
(h) Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Series 2000 Bond. In case the Series
2000 Bond shall become mutilated or be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Registrar shall
deliver a new Series 2000 Bond of a like amount, number, maturity date and tenor in
exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of any such mutilated Series 2000
Bond or in lieu of and in substitution for any such Series 2000 Bond lost, stolen or
destroyed, upon the payment of the reasonable expenses and charges of the Registrar in
connection therewith; and, in the case of a Series 2000 Bond lost, stolen or destroyed,
upon filing with the Registrar of evidence satisfactory to it that such Series 2000 Bond
-14-
was lost, stolen or destroyed, and of the ownership thereof, and upon furnishing to the
Registrar of an appropriate bond or indemnity in form, substance and amount satisfactory
to it, in which both the City and the Registrar shall be named as obligees. The Series
2000 Bond so surrendered to the Registrar shall be cancelled by it and evidence of such
cancellation shall be given to the City. If the mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Series
2000 Bond has already matured or such Series 2000 Bond has been called for redemption
in accordance with its terms, it shall not be necessary to issue a new Series 2000 Bond
prior to payment.
3.05. Initial Registrar. The City hereby appoints the City Finance Officer as the initial
Registrar for the Series 2000 Bond. The City reserves the right to appoint a successor Registrar,
and the City agrees to pay the reasonable and customary charges of the Registrar for the services
performed. Upon merger or consolidation of a bank or trust company that is acting as the
Registrar, if the resulting corporation is a bank or trust company authorized by law to conduct
such business, such corporation shall be authorized to act as successor Registrar. The City
reserves the right to remove any Registrar upon 30 days' notice and upon the appointment of a
successor Registrar, in which event the predecessor Registrar shall deliver all cash and securities
in its possession as Registrar to the successor Registrar and shall deliver the bond register to the
successor Registrar. On or before each principal or interest due date, without further order of
this Council, the City Finance Officer shall transmit to the Registrar, solely from money in the
Bond Account of the Tax Increment Fund available therefor, as the case may be, money
sufficient for the payment of all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due on the Series
2000 Bond.
3.06. Execution and Delivery. The Series 2000 Bond shall be forthwith prepared for
execution under the direction of the City Finance Officer, at the expense of the City, and shall be
executed on behalf of the City by the signatures of the Mayor, City Manager and City Finance
Officer; provided that said signatures may be printed, engraved or lithographed facsimiles
thereof. The seal of the City need not be affixed to or imprinted on the Series 2000 Bond. In
case any officer whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature shall appear on the Series
2000 Bond shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of any Series 2000 Bond, such
signature or facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if
such officer had remained in office until delivery. Notwithstanding such execution, no Series
2000 Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit
under the Bond Resolution unless and until a certificate of authentication on such Series 2000
Bond has been duly executed by the manual signature of an authorized representative of the
Registrar. Certificates of authentication on each Series 2000 Bond need not be signed by the
same representative. The executed certificate of authentication on each Series 2000 Bond shall
be conclusive evidence that it has been authenticated and delivered under the Bond Resolution
and in accordance with the provisions hereof. When the Series 2000 Bond has been fully
executed and authenticated, it shall be delivered by the Registrar to the Board of Investments
upon payment of the purchase price in accordance with the contract of sale heretofore made and
executed, and the Board of Investments shall not be obligated to see to the application of the
purchase price.

Purchaser and to bond counsel certified copies of all proceedings and information in their
official records relevant to the authorization and issuance of the Series 2000 Bond, and such
certificates and affidavits as to other matters appearing in their official records or otherwise
known to them as may be reasonably required to evidence the validity and security of the Series
2000 Bond, and all such certified copies, certificates and affidavits, including any heretofore
furnished, shall constitute representations and recitals of the City as to the correctness of all facts
stated therein and the completion of all proceedings stated therein to have been taken.

Increment Debt Service Fund, to the Board of Investments of the State of Montana (the "Board
of Investments"), or registered assigns, the principal sum of Two Million Five Hundred

2010 (the "Final Maturity Date") and a new schedule A shall be attached thereto and provided to
the City. Principal hereof and interest hereon are payable in consecutive equal semiannual
installments on January 1 and July 1 of each year, commencing on January 1, 2001, and
continuing through the Final Maturity Date, subject to the rights and duties of prepayment set
forth below. Upon presentation and surrender hereof at the office of the City Finance Officer in
Kalispell, Montana, the interest hereon and the principal hereof are payable in lawful money of
the United States of America to the registered owner of this Bond as it appears in the Bond
Register of the City.
This Bond is one in number and comprises all of a duly authorized series of Bonds of the
City (the "Series 2000 Bond") issued, and to be issued from time to time in one or more series
(collectively, the "Bonds") pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the City Council of the City
on February 7, 2000 (the "Resolution"), to which Resolution, copies of which are on file with the
City, reference is hereby made for a description of the nature and extent of the security for the
Series 2000 Bond, the conditions under which additional Bonds may be issued on a parity as to
payment with the Series 2000 Bond or otherwise, the conditions under which the Resolution may
be amended and the rights of the Holders of the Series 2000 Bond. The Series 2000 Bond is
issued by the City for the purpose of financing the acquisition of an office facility in the
Gateway West Complex to be leased to Stream International Service Corp., a business enterprise
that has agreed to provide new jobs in the City for at least 500 full time employees for a period
of not less than 10 years (the "2000 Project").
This Bond is issued pursuant to and in full compliance with the Constitution and laws of
the State of Montana, particularly Montana Code Annotated, Title 7, Chapter 15, Parts 42 and
43, as amended or supplemented (the "Act"), and pursuant to the Resolution. This Bond is
payable from the Tax Increment received by the City and resulting from the extension of certain
ad valorem taxes levied by certain Taxing Bodies against the incremental taxable value of
properties within the District pursuant to the Act (as defined in the Resolution, the "Tax
Increment") of the Kalispell West Side Urban Renewal District, an urban renewal area within the

time credited to the Series 2000 Bond Subaccount in the Tax Increment Debt Service Fund, the
Port Authority Levy, certain Loan Repayments from the Company and the User Fee of the
Company (as further defined and provided in the Resolution, the "Pledged Revenues").
The City has reserved the right to issue additional Bonds payable from the Tax Increment
on a parity with the pledge of the Tax Increment for the Series 2000 Bond, but has agreed that
the Pledged Revenues not constituting Tax Increment are pledged solely to the payment of the
Series 2000 Bond.
This Bond is not a general obligation of the City and the City's general credit and taxing
powers are not pledged to the payment of the Bond or the interest thereon. This Bond shall not
constitute an indebtedness of the City within the meaning of any constitutional, statutory or
charter limitations.

The interest on this Bond is includable in gross income for purposes of federal income
taxation.
The City may prepay the principal of this Bond on any date, in whole or part, any unpaid
principal of this Bond at a price equal to the principal amount to be redeemed plus interest
accrued to the date of redemption, without premium. Notice of any such prepayment will be
mailed by the District not less than 15 days prior to the date specified for payment, to the
registered holder of this Bond at his address as it appears on the Bond Register maintained by the
City Finance Officer.

accordance with the Resolution, this Bond shall no longer be deemed Outstanding under the
Resolution, shall cease to be entitled to the benefits of the Resolution, and shall thereafter be
payable solely from the funds provided for payment.
The Resolution permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment
thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the City and the Owners of the
Bonds at any time without the consent of any Bondowner or with the consent of the Owners of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding (as defined in the
Resolution) which are affected by such modifications. The Resolution also contains provisions
permitting Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds of all series at the
time Outstanding, on behalf of all the Owners of all Bonds, to waive compliance by the City
with certain provisions of the Resolution and certain past defaults under the Resolution and their
consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Owner of this Bond shall be conclusive and
binding upon such Owner and on all future Owners of this Bond and of any Bond issued in lieu
hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Bond.
The Owner of this Bond shall have no right to enforce the provisions of the Resolution,
or ti institute action to enforce the covenants therein or take any action with respect to a default
under the Resolution or to institute, appear in or defend any suit or other procedure with respect
thereto except as provided in the Resolution.
This Bond is a negotiable investment security as provided in the Montana Uniform
Commercial Code. As provided in the Resolution and subject to certain limitations set forth
therein, this Bond is transferable upon the books of the City at the office of the City Finance
Officer, by the registered owner hereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing
upon surrender hereof together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the City
Finance Officer, duly executed by the registered owner or his attorney. Upon such transfer, the
City will cause a new Bond to be issued in the name of the transferee or registered owner, of the
same aggregate principal amount, bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same
date, subject to reimbursement for any tax, fee or governmental charge required to be paid with
respect to such transfer.
The City may deem and treat the person in whose name this Bond is registered as the
absolute owner hereof, whether this Bond is overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving
payment and for all other purposes, and the City shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED, RECITED, COVENANTED AND DECLARED that all
acts, conditions and things required by the Constitution and laws of the State of Montana and the
home rule charter and ordinances and resolutions of the City to be done, to exist, to happen and
to be performed in order to make this Bond a valid and binding special, limited obligation of the
City in accordance with its terms have been done, do exist, have happened and have been
performed as so required; that this Bond has been issued by the City in connection with an urban
renewal project (as defined in the Act); that the City, in and by the Resolution has validly made
and entered into covenants and agreements with and for the benefit of the holders from time to
time of all Bonds issued thereunder including covenants that it will pledge, appropriate and
credit the Tax Increment derived from the District to the Tax Increment Debt Service Fund of
the City; that additional Bonds may be issued and made payable from the Tax Increment on a
parity with the Series 2000 Bond upon certain conditions set forth in the Resolution, but no
obligation will be otherwise incurred and made payable from the Tax Increment unless the lien
thereof shall be expressly made subordinate to the lien of the Series 2000 Bond on the Tax
Increment; that all provisions for the security of the Owners of the Bonds as set forth in the
Resolution will be punctually and faithfully performed as therein stipulated; and that the
issuance of the Series 2000 Bond does not cause the indebtedness of the City to exceed any
constitutional, statutory or charter limitation.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the City of Kalispell, Flathead County, State of Montana, by
its City Council, has caused this Bond to be executed on its behalf by the facsimile signatures of

provided in Section 6.01 and this Section 6.02, for the purpose of providing funds, in an
aggregate amount sufficient with any other funds available and committed therefor to pay the

Before any Additional Parity Bonds shall be issued under this Section 6.02, the City shall
adopt a Supplemental Resolution authorizing the issuance of such series of Additional Parity
Bonds, fixing the amount and the details thereof, describing in brief and general terms the
Projects to be acquired, constructed, altered or improved and estimating the costs thereof.
In addition, prior to the execution and delivery of any series of Additional Parity Bonds
under this Section 6.02, there shall be filed with the Clerk of the Council:
(a) A certificate executed by the City Manager and City Finance Officer
stating: (i) the estimated cost of the Projects being financed thereby, including an

costs of Projects and credits to the Reserve Account and Bond Account as set forth
above; and
(b) a certificate executed by the City Manager and City Finance Officer stating
that:
(i) the Tax Increment received by the City in the last completed Fiscal Year
was equal to at least 150% of the maximum Principal and Interest Requirements for any
future Fiscal Year (during the term of the Outstanding Parity Bonds) with respect to
Outstanding Parity Bonds and the Additional Parity Bonds proposed to be issued; and
(ii) the Tax Increment received by the City in the last completed Fiscal Year,
adjusted as provided in this Section 6.02(b)(ii), was, and the Tax Increment estimated to
be received in the next succeeding three Fiscal Years, adjusted as provided in Section
6.02(c), is estimated to be, equal to at least 150% of the maximum Principal and Interest
Requirements for any future Fiscal Year (during the term of the Outstanding Parity
Bonds) with respect to the Outstanding Parity Bonds and the Additional Parity Bonds
proposed to be issued, adjusted as provided in Section 6.02(d). For this purpose, the Tax
Increment received by the City in the last completed Fiscal Year may be adjusted by
-22-
adding any increase in Tax Increment which would have resulted from applying the tax
rate effective for the last completed Fiscal Year to the value, as determined by
certification of the County Assessor, of any projects which have been completed in the
District before the date of issuance of the Additional Parity Bonds and the taxable values
of which as so completed are not included in the "actual taxable value" of the District
(within the meaning of the Act).
The Council shall approve and confirm the findings and estimates set forth in the
above -described certificates in the Supplemental Resolution authorizing the issuance of the
Additional Bonds.
(c) For purposes of the foregoing paragraph (b), in estimating the Tax Increment to be
received in any future Fiscal Year, the City Manager and City Finance Officer shall assume that:
(1) 90% of the Taxes levied in the District will be collected in any Fiscal Year, (2) no Taxes
delinquent in a prior Fiscal Year will be collected in any subsequent Fiscal Year and (3) there
will be no increase in the Tax Increment to be received in any future Fiscal Year resulting from
(A) projected inflation in property values or projected increases in Taxes; (B) the completion of
improvements to real property which are under construction at the time of the issuance of the
Additional Bonds unless the improvements are substantially completed at the time of the
issuance of the Additional Bonds and the City Manager and City Finance Officer reasonably
believe that the improvements will be completed within the period for which the estimate is to be
made; (C) the completion of an improvement to real estate for which construction has not
commenced or is not substantially completed at the time of the issuance of the Additional Bonds
unless (i) the City has entered into an agreement with the Person undertaking the improvement
wherein the Person agrees to complete the improvement in accordance with a described plan and
within the period for which the estimate is to be made and to pay and satisfactorily secure to the
City, in the event the improvement is not completed in accordance with the described plan, the
difference between the estimated Tax Increment to be derived from such improvement and the
actual Tax Increment derived therefrom (adjusted upwards to reflect reductions in the mill rates
from those assumed in the estimate), and (ii) the City Manager and City Finance Officer
reasonably believe the improvement will be completed within the period for which the estimate
is to be made; or (D) improvements to be completed later than the end of the second full Fiscal
Year following the issuance of the Additional Bonds. In estimating the Tax Increment to be
derived from future development, the City shall assume the taxable value of the development
upon completion to be 66-2/3% of the estimated taxable valuation.
(d) For purposes of Section 6.02(b)(ii), if the Series 2000 Bond is Outstanding, only the
following percentages of Principal and Interest Requirements on the Series 2000 Bond is
required to be included in the calculation of the maximum Principal and Interest Requirements

Outstanding Parity Bonds and the Additional Parity Bonds proposed to be issued:
(i) if the Pledged Revenues not constituting Tax Increment (as used in this
Section 6.02, the "Other Pledged Revenues") in the current Fiscal Year are at least [50]%
of the Principal and Interest Requirements on the Series 2000 Bond in such Fiscal Year
-23-

two Fiscal Years before the date of issuance of the proposed Additional Parity Bonds has
been not less than [200]% of the Principal and Interest Requirements on the Series 2000
Bond in such Fiscal Year, then [50]% of the Principal and Interest Requirements on the
Series 2000 Bond must be included;
(ii) if the Other Pledged Revenues in the current Fiscal Year are at least [40]%,
but less than [50]%, of the Principal and Interest Requirements on the Series 2000 Bond
in such Fiscal Year and if the amount of Pledged Revenues (including Tax Increment) for
each of the last two Fiscal Years before the date of issuance of the proposed Additional
Parity Bonds has been not less than [200]% of the Principal and Interest Requirements on
the Series 2000 Bond in such Fiscal Year, then [75]% of the Principal and Interest
Requirements on the Series 2000 Bond must be included; or
(iii) 100% of the Principal and Interest Requirements on the Series 2000 Bond
must be included if the conditions in clauses (i) or (ii) are not met.
6.03. Additional Parity Bonds for Refunding Purposes. Additional Parity Bonds may be
issued at any time or from time to time, subject to the conditions hereinafter stated in this
Section 6.03, for the purpose of providing funds, with any other funds available and committed

(excluding accrued interest but including any premium) of the Additional Parity Bonds
plus any moneys to be withdrawn from the Bond Account for such purpose, together with
any other funds deposited for such purpose, will be not less than an amount sufficient to
pay the principal of and redemption premium, if any, on the Outstanding Bonds to be
refunded and the interest which will become due and payable on and prior to the
Redemption Date or Stated Maturities of the Bonds to be refunded, or (b) from such
proceeds there shall be deposited in trust, Government Obligations which do not permit
the redemption thereof at the option of the issuer, the principal of and the interest on
which when due and payable (or redeemable at the option of the holder thereof) will
provide, together with any other moneys which shall have been deposited in trust
-24-
irrevocably for such purpose, but without reinvestment, sufficient moneys to pay such
principal, redemption premium and interest;
(ii) an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that the issuance of such
Additional Bonds will not prejudice the exclusion from gross income for purposes of
federal income taxation of the interest accruing on any of the Outstanding Bonds; and

pursuant to Section 6.04, the conditions for the issuance of Additional Parity Bonds
pursuant to Section 6.02 are satisfied.
6.04. Subordinate Bonds. Except as provided in Sections 6.01 to 6.03, no Additional
Bonds will be issued under or secured by the provisions of this Resolution, and no Additional
Bonds will be made payable from the Tax Increment pledged thereto, unless the pledge and
appropriation of such Tax Increment for the payment and security of such Additional Bonds is
expressly subordinated to the pledge and appropriation made for the benefit and security of the
Series 2000 Bond and all Additional Parity Bonds issued and to be issued under and secured by
this Resolution in accordance with Sections 6.01 to 6.03. In the event of the issuance of any
such Additional Bonds, the principal, interest and redemption premiums thereon will be made
payable from one or more additional accounts created within the Tax Increment Funds for that
purpose, and the balance of funds at any time on hand in any such accounts shall be available
and shall be transferred whenever needed to meet the current requirements of the Bond Account
and Reserve Account set forth in Sections 7.04 and 7.05.
Section 7. The Tax Increment Funds.
7.01. Bond Proceeds and Tax Increment Pledged and Appropriated. Three funds to be
designated as the "Tax Increment Capital Project Fund," the "Tax Increment Debt Service Fund"
and the "Tax Increment Development Fund" (the Tax Increment Funds) are established and shall
be maintained as separate and special bookkeeping accounts on the official books of the City
until all Bonds have been fully paid, or the City's obligation with reference to all Bonds has been
discharged as provided in this Resolution. Within the Tax Increment Debt Service Fund there
shall be designated and maintained a Revenue Account and a Bond Account. All proceeds of
Bonds and all other funds hereafter received or appropriated for purposes of the Projects are
appropriated to the Tax Increment Funds as provided in this Section 7. All Tax Increment and
other Pledged Revenues are irrevocably pledged and appropriated and shall be credited as
received to the Tax Increment Debt Service Fund.
The Parity Bonds shall be secured by a first pledge of and lien on all of the Tax
Increment and of all other moneys from time to time in the Tax Increment Funds in the manner
and to the extent provided in this Section 7, except as to Pledged Revenues not constituting Tax
Increment, which shall secure only the Series 2000 Bond. The City shall not issue any
obligation or security superior to or on a parity with the Series 2000 Bond, payable or secured, in
whole or in part, from or by the Tax Increment other than Additional Parity Bonds issued
pursuant to Section 6, until the Series 2000 Bond has been paid or discharged as provided herein.

The Tax Increment Funds shall be subdivided into separate accounts as designated and described
in Sections 7.02 to 7.07.
7.02. Construction Account. For each Project, including the 2000 Project, there shall be
established a separate Construction Account within the Tax Increment Capital Project Fund, to
be used only to pay as incurred and allowed costs which under accepted accounting principles
are costs of the particular Project, including but not limited to payments due for work and
materials performed and delivered under construction contracts, architectural, engineering,
inspection, supervision, fiscal and legal expenses, the cost of lands and easements, interest
accruing on Bonds during the period of construction of a Project financed thereby and for a
period of time thereafter authorized by the Act and deemed necessary by the Council, if and to
the extent that the related subaccount in the Interest Subaccount is not sufficient for payment of
such interest, reimbursement of any advances made from other City funds, and all other
expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition, construction and financing of the Project.
To the Construction Account shall be credited as received all proceeds of Bonds issued to
finance such Project, except amounts otherwise appropriated in a Supplemental Resolution or
received from Additional Bonds issued to refund Outstanding Bonds pursuant to Section 6 and
all other funds appropriated by the City for the Project, and all income received from the
investment of the Construction Account. Upon completion of any Project and payment of the
cost thereof, the City may transfer any money then remaining in the Construction Account for
that Project to the Development Fund or as provided in a Supplemental Resolution. Money in
the Construction Account shall be transferred as needed to the related subaccount in the Interest
Subaccount to pay interest on Bonds payable therefrom to the extent moneys therein are
insufficient.
7.03. Revenue Account. All Tax Increment received by the City and all other Pledged
Revenues shall be deposited as received in the Revenue Account of the Tax Increment Debt
Service Fund as provided in this Section 7.03. Within the Revenue Account there shall be
created and maintained four separate subaccounts as follows: the Tax Increment Subaccount, the
User Fee Subaccount, Loan Repayment Subaccount and the Port Authority Levy Subaccount.
The City shall deposit the Pledged Revenues as received to the respective subaccounts in the

-26-
So long as the Series 2000 Bond is Outstanding, amounts deposited in the Tax Increment
Subaccount shall be allocated for bookkeeping purposes, as follows: (i) if no Additional Parity
Bond is Outstanding, all such amounts shall be deemed allocated to the Series 2000 Bond
(amounts so allocated are referred to herein as "2000 Tax Increment") and (ii) if Additional
Parity Bonds are Outstanding, such amounts shall be apportioned between the Series 2000 Bond
(the 2000 Tax Increment) and such Additional Parity Bonds (the "Additional Parity Tax
Increment") in proportion to the Principal and Interest Requirements on the Series 2000 Bond
and the Outstanding Additional Parity Bonds, respectively, in the 12-month period ending on the
next succeeding July 1.
7.04. Bond Account: Allocation of Pledged Revenues. (a) The Bond Account is hereby

Section 8. Other Covenants of City.
8.01. Punctual Payment. The City will punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal
and interest to become due in respect to all the Bonds, in strict conformity with the terms of the
Bonds and of this Resolution, and it will faithfully observe and perform all of the conditions,
covenants and requirements of this Resolution and all Supplemental Resolutions and of the

claims for interest after maturity, the City will not, directly or indirectly, extend or consent to the
extension of the time for the payment of any claim for interest on any of the Bonds and will not,

said claims for interest or in any other manner. In case any such claim for interest shall be
extended or funded, whether or not with the consent of the City, such interest so extended or
funded shall not be entitled, in case of default hereunder, to the benefits of this Resolution,
except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal of all of the Bonds then outstanding
and of all claims for interest which shall not have been so extended or funded.
8.03. Against Encumbrances. The City will not encumber, pledge or place any charge or
lien upon any of the Tax Increment superior to or on a parity with the pledge and lien herein
created for the benefit of the Parity Bonds, except as herein specifically provided. The City will
not encumber, pledge or place any charge or lien upon any of the Pledged Revenues not
constituting Tax Increment superior to or on a parity with the pledge and lien herein created for
the benefit of the Series 2000 Bond, except as herein specifically provided.
8.04. Management and Operation of Properties. The City will manage and operate or
cause to be managed and operated all Projects owned by the City in a sound and business -like
manner, and will keep such Projects insured at all times in conformity with sound business

kept, proper books of record and accounts, separate from all other records and accounts of the
City, in which complete and correct entries shall be made of all transactions relating to the
Projects, Tax Increment and the Tax Increment Funds. Such books of record and accounts shall
be at all time during business hours subject to the inspection of the Holders of not less than ten
percent (10%) of the principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, or their representatives
authorized in writing.
The City will prepare and file with the Clerk of the Council annually, within one hundred
eighty (180) days after the close of each Fiscal Year so long as any of the Bonds are

including a breakdown of Tax Increment attributable to current and delinquent property tax

8.07. Taxation of Leased Property. Other than a Project owned and operated as a public
improvement or facility, whenever the City leases real property in the District to any Person
other than a governmental entity, the property shall to the extent authorized by law be assessed
and taxed in the same manner as privately -owned property and the lease shall provide (1) that
the lessee shall pay Taxes upon the taxable value for the entire property and not merely upon the
assessed value of his or its leasehold interest, and (2) that if for any reason the Taxes paid by the
lessee on such property in any year during the term of the lease shall be less than the Taxes
which would have been payable upon the assessed value of the entire property if the property
were assessed and taxed in the same manner as privately -owned property, the lessee shall pay
such difference to the City within thirty days after the Taxes for such year become payable to the
Taxing Bodies and in any event prior to the delinquency date of such Taxes established by law.
All such payments to the City shall be treated as Tax Increment and shall be deposited by the
City in the Tax Increment Funds.
8.08. Disposition of Property. The City will not authorize the disposition of any land or
real property in the District to anyone which will result in such property becoming exempt from
taxation because of public ownership or use or otherwise (except property planned for such
ownership or use by the Urban Renewal Plan in effect on the date of this Resolution) if such
disposition shall consist of more than two percent (2%) of the land area in the District, except as
provided in this Section 8.08. The City shall appoint a reputable Independent Financial
Consultant and direct said consultant to report on the effect of said disposition. If the Report of
the Independent Financial Consultant concludes that Tax Increment (including any amounts
resulting from payments in lieu of taxes agreed to be paid with respect to the property) will not
be reduced by the proposed disposition in each of the three complete Fiscal Years following such
disposition (based on tax levies not greater than those for the current Fiscal Year) below 150%
of the maximum Principal and Interest Requirements on all Outstanding Bonds in any future
Fiscal Year and that the security of the Bonds or the rights of the Bondholders will not be
materially impaired by said proposed disposition, the City may make the proposed disposition.
8.09. Further Assurances. The City will adopt, make, execute and deliver any and all
such further resolutions, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably necessary or proper to
carry out the intention or to facilitate the performance of this Resolution, and for the better
-34-
assuring and confirming unto the Holders of the Bonds of the rights and benefits provided in this
Resolution.
8.10. Amendment of Plan. Except to authorize additional Projects, the City will not
amend or modify the Plan or reduce the size of the District if an effect thereof will be to
materially and adversely affect the security of the Bonds; provided, however, the City may
reduce the size of the District if a report as provided in Section 8.08 is received from the
Independent Financial Consultant regarding the reduction in size of the District.
8.11. Federal Tax Exemption. The City will not use the proceeds of any Bonds or use or
permit the use of any Project financed from the proceeds of the Bonds or revenues derived
therefrom in such a way as to cause the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on
any Bonds to become adversely affected.
8.12. Pledge_of Replacement Revenues. The City covenants and agrees that in the event
the Constitution or laws of the State of Montana are amended to reduce or eliminate real or
personal property taxation and Montana law then or thereafter provides to the City an alternate
or supplemental source or sources of revenue, whether such revenue may be realized by the
levying or imposing of a tax, fee or charge by the City or some other entity, to replace or
supplement reduced or eliminated Tax Increment, then the City will appropriate annually,
subject to the limitations of then applicable law, to the Bond Account in the Tax Increment
Fund, for the equal and ratable benefit of all Outstanding Parity Bonds, as further provided in
Section 7.04, from such alternate or supplemental revenues an amount that will, with money on
deposit in the Bond Account or available and to be transferred to the Bond Account during such
Fiscal Year, be sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Outstanding Parity Bonds payable in that fiscal year. If the City observes such covenants and
appropriates funds to the Bond Account in such amounts, the violation of other covenants in this
Resolution (including without limitation the obligation to maintain the 2000 Reserve Account in
an amount equal to the 2000 Reserve Requirement and to maintain the General Reserve Account
in an amount equal to the General Reserve Requirement, but excluding the covenant to apply
money in the Bond Account to the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Bonds) is not to be deemed a default by the City of its obligations under this Resolution.
8.13. Adjustment of Base Taxable Value. The City shall not adjust the tax incremental
base of the District pursuant to Section 7-15-4287 of the Act so long as any Bonds are
Outstanding, if the effect thereof would be to materially and adversely affect the amount of Tax
Increment.
8.14. Bondholder Rights. No Holder of any Parity Bond issued and secured under the
provisions of this Resolution shall have the right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, for the enforcement of the covenants herein contained, without the written
concurrence of the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of all Parity
Bonds which are at the time Outstanding; but the Holders of this amount of such Parity Bonds
may, either at law or in equity, by suit, action or other proceedings, protect and enforce the rights
of all Holders of such Parity Bonds and compel the performance of any and all of the covenants
-35-
required herein to be performed by the City and its officers and employees. The Holder of a
majority in principal amount of such Outstanding Parity Bonds shall have the right to direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceedings for any remedy available to the Holders
or the exercise of any power conferred on them, and the right to waive a default in the
performance of any such covenant, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the
principal of or interest on any Bond when due. However, nothing herein shall impair the
absolute and unconditional right of the Holder of each Bond to receive payment of the principal
of and interest on such Bond as such principal and interest respectively become due, and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment. In the event of default in any such
payment, any court having jurisdiction of the action may appoint a receiver to administer the Tax
Increment Funds and to collect and segregate and apply the Tax Increment and other Pledged
Revenues pledged thereto as provided by this Resolution and the Act.
Section 9. Supplemental Resolutions.
9.01. General. The City reserves the right to adopt Supplemental Resolutions to this
Resolution from time to time and at any time, for the purpose of curing any ambiguity or of
curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained herein, or of making such
provisions with regard to matters or questions arising hereunder as the City may deem necessary
or desirable and not inconsistent with this Resolution, and which shall not adversely affect the
interests of the Holders of Bonds issued hereunder, or for the purpose of adding to the covenants
and agreements herein contained, or to the Pledged Revenues herein pledged, other covenants
and agreements thereafter to be observed and additional revenues or income thereafter
appropriated to the Tax Increment Funds, or for the purpose of surrendering any right or power
herein reserved to or conferred upon the City, or for the purpose of authorizing the creation and
issuance of a series of Additional Bonds, as provided in and subject to the conditions and
requirements of Section 6. Any such Supplemental Resolution may be adopted by resolution,
without the consent of the Holder of any of the Bonds issued hereunder.
9.02. Consent of Bondholders. With the consent of the Holders of Outstanding Parity
Bonds as provided in Section 9.03, the City may from time to time and at any time adopt a
Supplemental Resolution for the purpose of amending this Resolution by adding any provisions
hereto or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions hereof or of any
Supplemental Resolution, except that no Supplemental Resolution shall be adopted at any time
without the consent of the Holders of all Outstanding Bonds affected thereby, if it would extend
the time of payment of interest thereon, would reduce the amount of the principal thereof or
redemption premium thereon, would give to any Bond or Bonds any privilege over any other
Bond or Bonds (except for the privilege accorded Parity Bonds over Subordinate Bonds), would
reduce the sources of Tax Increment or other Pledged Revenues appropriated to the Tax
Increment Funds, or would reduce the percentage in principal amount of such Bonds required to
authorize or consent to any such Supplemental Resolution.
9.03. Notice. Notice of a Supplemental Resolution to be adopted pursuant to Section
9.02 shall be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of all Outstanding Parity
Bonds at their addresses appearing in the Bond Register and shall become effective only upon
-36-
the filing of written consents with the Clerk of the Council, signed by the Holders of not less
than two-thirds in principal amount of the Parity Bonds issued hereunder which are then
Outstanding. Any written consent to the Supplemental Resolution may be embodied in and
evidenced by one or any number of concurrent written instruments of substantially similar tenor
signed by Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing, and shall become effective
when delivered to the Clerk of the Council. Any consent by the Holder of any Bond shall bind
that Holder and every future Holder of the same Bond with respect to any Supplemental
Resolution adopted by the City pursuant to such consent; provided that any Holder may revoke
his consent with reference to any Bond by written notice received by the Clerk of the Council
before the Supplemental Resolution has become effective. In the event that unrevoked consents
of the Holders of the required amount of Bonds have not been received by the Clerk of the
Council within one year after the publication of notice of the Supplemental Resolution, the
Supplemental Resolution and all consents theretofore received shall be of no further force and
effect.
9.04. Manner of Consent. Proof of the execution of any consent, or of a writing
appointing any agent to execute the same, or of the ownership by any Person of Bonds payable
to bearer, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Resolution and shall be conclusive in favor
of the City if made in the manner provided in this Section 9.04. The fact and date of the
execution by any Person of any such consent or appointment may be proved by the affidavit of a
witness of such execution or by the certification of any notary public or other officer authorized
by law to take acknowledgment of deeds, certifying that the Person signing it acknowledged to
him the execution thereof. The fact and date of execution of any such consent may also be
proved in any other manner which the City may deem sufficient; but the City may nevertheless,
in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it deems further proof desirable. The
ownership of any registered Bonds shall be proved by the Bond Register.
Section 10. Defeasance.
10.01. General. When the liability of the City on all Bonds issued under and secured by
this Resolution and all interest thereon has been discharged as provided in this Section 10, all
pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this Resolution to the Holders of such Bonds shall
cease.
10.02. Maturity. The City may discharge its liability with reference to all Bonds and
interest thereon which are due on any date by depositing with the Paying Agent for such Bonds
on or before the date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full; or if any Bond or interest
shall not be paid when due, the City may nevertheless discharge its liability with reference
thereto by depositing with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with
interest accrued to the date of such deposit.
10.03. Redemption. The City may also discharge its liability with reference to any
Bonds which are called for redemption on any date in accordance with their terms, by depositing
with the Paying Agent on or before that date an amount equal to the principal, interest and
-37-
redemption premium, if any, which are then due thereon; provided that notice of such
redemption has been duly given as provided in this Resolution or a Supplemental Resolution.
10.04. Escrow. The City may also at any time discharge its liability with reference to
any Bond subject to the provisions of law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such
action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow, with a bank qualified by law as an escrow agent for
this purpose, cash or securities which are general obligations of the United States or securities of
United States agencies which are authorized by law to be so deposited, bearing interest payable
at such times and at such rates and maturing on such dates as shall be required to provide funds
sufficient to pay all principal and interest to become due on all such Bonds on or before the
Stated Maturities thereof or, if such Bonds are subject to redemption and the City has given the
redemption notice required therefor or given irrevocable instructions to give such notice and the
funds provided will also be sufficient to pay any applicable redemption premium, to an earlier
Redemption Date.
Section 11. Effective Date. This Resolution shall be in full force and effect from and
after its final passage and approval according to law.
