Project Fund. Moneys (a) There is hereby created by the District and established with the Trustee the special fund of the District designated its “Dock and Wharf Facility Revenue Bonds, Series 2016 (Jefferson Energy Companies Project) Project Fund” (herein referred to as the “Project Fund”). The money deposited in the Project Fund, including all money therein and all investments thereof, shall be held in trust and applied solely as provided in this Section. (b) On the date of issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds, the Trustee shall transfer the amount set forth in the Approval Certificate from the Closing Fund to the Project Fund. (c) The Trustee shall disburse amounts in the Project Fund to pay or reimburse the Company for Project Costs within three Business Days following receipt of and in accordance with a Requisition in substantially the form of Exhibit F to this Indenture approved and executed by the District. (d) The District shall not request disbursement by the Trustee of proceeds received from the sale of the Series 2016 Bonds for any New Property unless: (1) A guaranteed maximum price construction contract with respect to the New Property covered by such disbursal shall have been executed (including a contractor completion guaranty with a contractor of good reputation and ability) and such contract shall provide for draws against milestones approved by the District in its sole discretion. Such construction contract will be collaterally assigned to the Trustee pursuant to the Company Leasehold Deed of Trust. (2) The capital budget for the construction of the New Property is in balance and will remain in balance after such disbursement – in other words, after disbursement of any requested amount, the sum of all disbursements made for New Property shall not exceed the total of the construction costs set forth in the capital budget for all such New Property for which disbursements have been made, and the Company shall have certified in writing to the District that the Company expects that the construction of all New Property will be completed for the balance of the proceeds received from the sale of the Series 2016 Bonds together with its funds on hand or available from committed sources. The District may refuse to approve any disbursement request for New Property if the capital budget is or will not be in balance, unless the Company either (i) pays Project Costs from sources other than the proceeds received from the sale of the Series 2016 Bonds in an amount sufficient to bring the capital budget for the construction of the New Property back in balance (and provides paid receipts or releases to the District as evidence of such payment) or (ii) revises the capital budget for the construction of the New Property in a manner that brings the capital budget for the construction of the New Property back in balance, which may include revising the scope and/or features of the New Property, and such revised budget is approved by the District in its sole discretion. If the revisions to the capital budget would reduce the scope, features, amount or type of New Property to be constructed, then when any such reduction is submitted to the District for approval, it shall be accompanied by a certification from a senior officer of the Company that such reduction will not result in a reduction of the projected operating income from the Project that would materially impair the Company’s ability to pay its operating expenses, including without limitation rent under the Ground Lease and Rent pursuant to the Facilities Lease or adversely affect the tax-exempt status of interest on the Bonds. (3) Each disbursement request shall have been approved by an independent construction monitor engaged and paid for by the Company, and approved by the District in its sole discretion in accordance with the Facilities Lease.
