AMENDED AND RESTATED
LOAN AND TRUST AGREEMENT

time in effect, the "Agreement") is entered into as of June 27, 1991 by the
Massachusetts Port Authority (the "Issuer"), a body politic and corporate
and a public instrumentality of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts (the
"Commonwealth") duly created by Chapter 465 of the Acts of 1956 of the
Commonwealth, as heretofore amended and supplemented (as so amended and
supplemented, the "Enabling Act"), Xxxxx Harborside Associates II Limited
partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership (the "Borrower"), and
Shawmut Bank, N.A., a national banking association, as trustee (with its

otherwise indicated, references to Articles or Sections refer to this
Agreement.
RECITALS
Pursuant to a Loan and Trust Agreement dated as of December 15, 1990,
as amended (the "Original Agreement"), among the Issuer, the Borrower and
the Trustee, the Issuer duly issued $40,000,000 principal amount of special
project revenue bonds (the "Bonds", which term includes bonds issued in
replacement or exchange for Bonds and excludes Bonds for which the Trustee
is holding payment under Section 510 hereof). The proceeds of the Bonds
were loaned (the "Loan") by the Issuer to the Borrower to finance the
Project (as defined herein), subject to the provision that such proceeds
were required to be held in escrow until the Remarketing Date established
under Section 405 of the original Agreement. Effective as of the
Remarketing Date, viz. June 27, 1991, the original Agreement is amended and
restated to be this Agreement.
All things necessary to make the Bonds, when authenticated, the
binding, limited obligations of the Issuer and to create a valid lien and
pledge as herein provided have been accomplished; and the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the issuance of the Bonds have been duly
authorized.
In consideration of the mutual agreements and representations
contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree,
covenant, grant, pledge, assign, represent and warrant as follows (it being
understood and
agreed that the performance of the agreements of the Issuer herein
contained and any obligation it may incur for the payment of money shall
not constitute a general obligation of the Issuer or the Commonwealth or a
debt or a pledge of the faith and credit of the Issuer or the Commonwealth
or any political subdivision or municipality thereof but shall be payable
solely from the revenues and funds provided under this Agreement, the
Credit Enhancement Agreement and the Borrower Security Instruments):
PART I: PLEDGE AND ASSIGNMENT; DEFINITIONS
-------------------------------------------
Article 1 - Granting Clause of Borrower and Pledge and Assignment of Issuer
In order to secure the due payment of principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on the Bonds and the compliance by the Borrower and the Issuer

Section 101. GRANTING CLAUSE OF BORROWER. For and in consideration of
the Loan made hereunder to the Borrower, the Borrower as debtor does by
these presents freely grant, pledge and assign to the Trustee, its
successors and assigns forever, for the benefit of the Bondholders and
hereby creates in the Trustee, its successors and assigns, as secured party
for the benefit of the Bondholders a security interest under the Uniform
Commercial Code to the maximum extent possible in all right, title and
interest of the Borrower in and to the Pledged Receipts upon the terms and
trusts herein set forth for the benefit, security and protection of all
present and future holders of all Bonds from time to time issued under and
secured by this Agreement.
Section 102. PLEDGE AND ASSIGNMENT OF ISSUER. In order to secure the
due payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds and
compliance by the Issuer with its agreements contained in this Agreement
the Issuer hereby grants, pledges and assigns to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Bondholders all of its right, title and interest in and to
the Pledged Receipts and all of the Issuer's right, title and interest in
this Agreement, including enforcement rights and remedies but excepting
from such grant, pledge and assignment the right of the Issuer to any
payment or reimbursement pursuant to Section 1001D or Section 1003 and its
rights under the third sentence of Section 1110 and excepting any amounts
on deposit in the Rebate Fund; and provided that the Issuer shall retain an
independent right (but no obligation) to enforce against the Borrower
compliance with the provisions of Section 1004 hereof; and provided that
the pledge hereunder shall not transfer any rights or remedies under the
Ground Lease, the Credit Enhancement
-2-
Agreement or any other statement or instrument other than this Agreement.
Section 103. DEFEASANCE OF LIEN; TERMINATION OF BORROWERS OBLIGATIONS
ON THE LOAN. When (i) the Issuer has paid or has been deemed to have paid,
within the meaning of this Section 103, to the holders of all of the Bonds
the principal and interest and premium, if any, due or to become due
thereon at the times and in the manner stipulated therein and herein and
(ii) all Additional Payments have been paid or provided for to the
satisfaction of the Issuer and the Trustee, the lien of this Agreement on
the Trust Estate shall terminate and the Borrower's obligations with
respect to the Loan shall terminate, except that, notwithstanding
termination of the lien hereof, the obligations of the Borrower to make all
payments required by Section 504 and of any other party hereto to take any
other action under Section 504 shall continue until all such obligations
have been paid in full. Upon the Borrower's written request, the Trustee
shall upon the termination of the lien hereof promptly execute and deliver
to the Borrower and the Issuer an appropriate discharge hereof except that,
subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall continue to
hold in trust amounts held pursuant to Section 510 for the payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds and moneys held
for rebate to the United States of America under Section 148(f) of the
Code.
All the outstanding Bonds shall be deemed to have been paid within
the meaning of this Section 103 if the Trustee shall have paid to the
holders of such Bonds, or pursuant to Section 510 or 1105 shall be holding
in trust for and shall have irrevocably committed to the payment of the
Outstanding Bonds sufficient moneys for the payment of all principal of and
interest and premium, if any, on such Bonds to the date of maturity or
redemption, as the case may be; provided, that if any of such Bonds are
deemed to have been paid prior to the earlier of the redemption or the
maturity thereof, the Trustee shall have received an unqualified opinion of
Bond Counsel that such payment and the holding thereof by the Trustee shall
not in and of itself cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross
income for federal income tax purposes; and provided, further, that if any
such Bonds are to be redeemed prior to the maturity thereof, notice of such
redemption shall have been duly given or irrevocable provision satisfactory
to the Trustee shall have been duly made for the giving of such notice.
Any moneys held by the Trustee in the manner provided by the
provisions of this Section 103 shall be invested by the Trustee in the
manner provided by Section 506 (but only to the extent that such
investments are available) only in United States Obligations which do not
contain provisions permitting redemption
-3-
at the option of the issuer, the maturities or redemption dates, without
premium, of which shall coincide as nearly as practicable with, but not be
later than, the time or times at which said moneys will be required for the
aforesaid purposes. The making of any such investments or the sale or other
liquidation thereof shall not be subject to the control of the Issuer or
the Borrower, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for any losses
resulting from such investment. Any income or interest earned by, or
increment to, the investments held under this Section 103, to the extent
determined from time to time by the Trustee to be in excess of the amount
required to be held by it for the purposes of this Section 103, shall be
paid to the Borrower.
After all of the outstanding Bonds shall be deemed to have been paid
and all other amounts required to be paid under this Agreement shall have
been paid, then upon the termination of this Agreement (a) any amounts in
the Equity Reserve Fund shall be paid to the Credit Enhancer and (b) any
amounts in the Project Fund, the Bond Fund, the Revenue Fund, the Debt
Service Reserve Fund, the Supplemental Equity Fund and the Construction and
Operating Costs Contingency Fund, shall be paid to the Credit Enhancer to
the extent necessary to repay any unpaid Obligations as defined in the
Credit Enhancement Agreement, and thereafter the remainder, if any, shall
be paid to the Borrower.

PART II: THE BONDS
--------------------
Article 3 - The Bonds
Section 301. ISSUANCE OF BONDS, DATES. MATURITIES AND INTEREST. The
Bonds shall be designated "Massachusetts Port Authority Special Project
Revenue Bonds, Series 1990 (Harborside Hyatt Conference Center and Hotel
Project)"; shall be issued in the original aggregate principal amount of
$40,000,000; shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit 301
attached hereto, with such variations, omissions and insertions as are
permitted or required hereby; and shall be dated December 31, 1990 if
authenticated prior to the first Interest Payment Date and otherwise shall
be dated as of the Interest Payment Date next preceding the date of their
authentication, except that if authenticated on an Interest Payment Date
they shall be dated as
-15-
of such date of authentication; provided that if at the time of
authentication interest thereon is in default, they shall be dated as of
the date to which interest has been paid or if no interest has been paid,
they shall be dated as of December 31, 1990. Except to the extent otherwise
provided in Section 306 or made necessary as a result of a partial
redemption, the Bonds shall be issued in fully registered form without
coupons numbered from R-82 upwards in denominations of $100,000 or any
integral multiple thereof thereafter, and shall be registered in such names
as shall be requested by the Bondholders.
The Bonds shall be issued in a single series having a stated maturity
date of March 1, 2026. Interest on each Bond shall accrue from its dated
date, payable on each Interest Payment Date.
Section 302. RESERVED.
Section 303. EXECUTION; AUTHENTICATION. Bonds shall be executed on
behalf of the Issuer by the manual or facsimile official signature of the
Chairman, Vice Chairman or Executive Director of the Issuer. The official
seal (which may be facsimile) of the Issuer shall be impressed or imprinted
on all Bonds. In case any officer whose signature shall appear on the Bonds
shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of such Bonds, such
signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if
he or she had remained in office until delivery and any Bonds may be signed
on behalf of the Issuer by such persons as, at the time of execution of
such Bond, shall be the proper officers of the Issuer, even though at the
date of such Bond or of the delivery of this Agreement such person was not
such officer.
No Bond shall be valid or obligatory until authenticated as provided
in Exhibit 301 by the Trustee. Such authentication shall be conclusive
evidence that such Bond has been authenticated and delivered hereunder. The
certificate of authentication on any Bond shall be deemed to have been
executed by the Trustee if manually signed by an authorized signatory of
the Trustee, but it shall not be necessary that the same individual sign
the certificate of authentication on all of the Bonds issued hereunder.
Section 304. INTEREST ON BONDS. The Bonds shall bear interest from
and including the date thereof until payment of the principal thereof shall
have been made or provided for in accordance with the provisions hereof,
whether at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise. The Bonds will bear
interest during the Initial Interest Period at the fixed rate of 6.5% per
annum to (but excluding) June 20, 1991 and at the fixed rate of 6.25% per
annum from (and including) June 20, 1991 to (but excluding) June
-16-
27, 1991. From and after the Remarketing Date the Bonds will bear interest
at the fixed rate of 10% per annum. Interest on the Bonds in all cases will
be computed during the Initial Interest period on the basis of a 365-day
year and for actual days elapsed and thereafter on the basis of a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Interest will be payable as
provided in Exhibit 301.
Section 305. LOST BONDS. If any of the Bonds are lost, wrongfully
taken, mutilated, destroyed or improperly cancelled, the Issuer shall
authorize the issuance of new Bonds to replace them upon proof satisfactory
to the Issuer and the Trustee and (except in the case of mutilated or
improperly cancelled Bonds which are surrendered to the Trustee) upon
giving to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Borrower an indemnity bond in
such amount as the Issuer, the Trustee and the Borrower may require. Each
new Bond shall in all respects be identical with the mutilated, lost,
stolen, destroyed or improperly cancelled Bond. The Issuer and the Trustee
may impose reasonable charges in connection with the issuance of
replacement Bonds under this Section 305, which shall be for the account of
the Bondholders requesting the issuance of replacement Bonds.
Section 306. EXCHANGE AND TRANSFER OF BONDS; BOOK ENTRY SYSTEM. Upon
surrender of a Bond or Bonds at the corporate trust office of the Trustee,
as bond registrar, together with an assignment duly executed by the
Bondholder or his attorney or legal representative in such form and with
such guaranty of signature as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee, the
Bond or Bonds may be exchanged for fully registered Bonds of the same
maturity, aggregating in amount the then unpaid principal amount of the
Bond or Bonds surrendered, of authorized denominations.
As to any Bond, the Bondholder shall be deemed and regarded as the
absolute owner thereof for all purposes and none of the Issuer, the
Borrower or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
At the option of the Bondholder, any Bond may be presented at the
corporate trust office of the Trustee for endorsement showing the balance
of principal due thereon and the date to which interest has been paid.
Any Bond may be transferred upon the books kept for the registration
and transfer of Bonds only upon surrender thereof to the Trustee, as bond
registrar, together with an assignment duly executed by the Bondholder or
his attorney or legal representative in such form and with such guaranty of
signature as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee; PROVIDED, that the
Trustee shall not be obliged to make any transfer of a Bond during the
period between a Record Date and the corresponding
-17-
Interest Payment Date. Upon the transfer of any such Bond and on request of
the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, a new Bond or Bonds, registered in the name of the transferee
or transferees, of the same maturity, aggregating in amount the then unpaid
principal amount of the Bond or Bonds surrendered, of authorized
denominations.
BY ACCEPTANCE OF ANY BOND, THE BONDHOLDER AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT
TRANSFER OR GRANT PARTICIPATIONS IN SUCH BOND IN DENOMINATIONS OF LESS THAN
$100,000.
In all cases in which Bonds shall be issued in exchange for or in
replacement of other Bonds, the Bonds to be issued shall be signed and
sealed on behalf of the Issuer, and authenticated by the Trustee as
provided in Section 303. The obligation of the Issuer and the rights of the
Bondholders with respect to such Bonds shall be the same as with respect to
the Bonds being exchanged or replaced. Such registrations of transfers or
exchanges of Bonds shall be without charge to the Bondholders, except that
any taxes or other governmental charges required to be paid with respect to
the same shall be paid by the Bondholder requesting such registration of
transfer or exchange as a condition precedent to the exercise of such
privilege. Any service charge made by the Trustee for any such
registration, transfer or exchange shall be paid by the Borrower.
Whenever any outstanding Bond shall be delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation pursuant to this Agreement, or for exchange or transfer
pursuant to this Section 306, such Bond shall be promptly cancelled and
destroyed by the Trustee and counterparts of a certificate of destruction
evidencing such destruction shall be retained by the Trustee and, if
requested by the Issuer or the Borrower, shall be furnished by the Trustee
to the Issuer or the Borrower, as the case may be.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 306 to the contrary
notwithstanding, following the Initial Interest Period the Bonds will be
issued on the Remarketing Date as one fully registered bond in the name of
Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York
("DTC"), and deposited in the custody of DTC. The actual purchasers of the
Bonds (the "Beneficial Owners") will not receive physical delivery of the
Bonds. Individual purchases of the Bonds may be made in book-entry form
only in principal amounts of $100,000 or any integral multiple thereof.
Principal and interest payments on the Bonds will be made to DTC or its
nominee as Bondholder.
DTC shall pay interest to the Beneficial Owners of record through its
participants as of the close of business on the Record Date. DTC shall pay
the redemption price of the Bonds called for redemption to the Beneficial
Owners of record through
-18-
its participants as of the close of business 15 days prior to the date
fixed for redemption. The Trustee shall notify DTC, to the extent possible,
of any notice required to be given pursuant to this Agreement not less than
15 days prior to the date upon which such notice is required to be given.
Transfer of ownership interests in the Bonds shall be made by DTC and
its participants, acting as nominees of the Beneficial Owners, in
accordance with rules specified by DTC and its participants. There can be
no assurance that DTC, its participants or other nominees of the Beneficial
Owners will act in accordance with such rules or on a timely basis.
Bond certificates will be issued directly to owners of the Bonds
other than DTC, or its nominee, upon the occurrence of the following events
(subject, however, to operation of the two sentences following clause (c)
below):
(a) DTC determines not to continue to act as securities
depository for the Bonds; or
(b) the Borrower with the consent of the Issuer and the
Trustee has advised DTC of its determination that DTC is incapable of
discharging its duties; or
(c) the Borrower with the consent of the Issuer and the
Trustee has determined that it is in the best interest of the Bondholders
not to continue the book-entry system of transfer or that interests of the
beneficial owners of the Bonds might be adversely affected if the book-
entry system of transfer is continued.
Upon occurrence of the event described in (a) or (b) above the Borrower
shall attempt to locate another qualified securities depository. If the
Borrower fails to locate another qualified securities depository to replace
DTC, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Bonds in certificated form.
In the event the Borrower makes the determination noted in (b) or (c) above
(as to which the Borrower undertakes no obligation to make any
investigation to determine the occurrence of any events that would permit
the Borrower to make any such determination), and has made provisions to
notify the beneficial owners of the Bonds by mailing an appropriate notice
to DTC, the Borrower shall cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver
Bonds in certificated form pursuant to Exhibit 301 of this Agreement to any
DTC participants making such a request. Principal of and interest on the
Bonds shall be payable as otherwise provided in this Article 3. The Bonds
will be transferable in accordance with this Section 306.
-19-
Section 307. TEMPORARY BONDS. Pending the preparation of definitive
Bonds, the Issuer may execute, and upon its request in writing, the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver one or more printed, lithographed
or-typewritten temporary Bonds (including temporary Bonds printed by offset
or photocopying). Temporary Bonds shall be issuable as registered Bonds
without coupons, of any authorized denomination, and substantially in the
form of definitive Bonds but with such omissions, insertions and variations
as may be appropriate for temporary Bonds, all as may be determined by the
Issuer. Temporary Bonds may contain such reference to any provisions of
this Agreement as may be appropriate. Every temporary Bond shall be
executed by the Issuer and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same
conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like effect, as
the definitive Bonds. As promptly as practicable the Issuer shall execute
and shall furnish definitive registered Bonds without coupons and thereupon
temporary Bonds may be surrendered in exchange therefor without charge at
the corporate trust office of the Trustee, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Bonds a like
aggregate principal amount of definitive Bonds of authorized denominations.
Until so exchanged the temporary Bonds shall be entitled to the same
benefits under this Agreement as definitive Bonds.

March 1, 2021 2,500,000
March 1, 2022 2,700,000
March 1, 2023 3,000,000
March 1, 2024 3,300,000
March 1, 2025 3,600,000
leaving the principal amount of $4,000,000 due and payable on the
stated maturity date of March 1, 2026.
The requirements of clause (iii) of this Section 401(c) are
subject, however, to the provision that any partial redemption of Bonds
under Section 401(a) or under clause (i) or (ii) of this Section 401(c)
shall reduce the mandatory scheduled redemption requirements of clause
(iii) of this Section 401(c) as provided in this paragraph. In the event of
a partial redemption of Bonds under Section 401(a) or under clause (i) or
(ii) of this Section 401(c), the Trustee shall allocate the principal
amount redeemed among the scheduled redemptions provided in clause (iii) of
this Section 401(c) in a manner which, as nearly as practicable, will
maintain the average life to maturity of the Bonds. Such allocations shall
be made only in units of $100,000. Each such allocation by the Trustee
shall, in
-22-
the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon the
Issuer, the Borrower, the Trustee and the Bondholders. The Trustee promptly
shall give notice of each such allocation by written statement setting
forth the revised schedule of mandatory redemptions under clause (iii) of
this Section 401(c) by mail to the Issuer, the Borrower and each
Bondholder.
(iv) In the event of the occurrence of a Determination of
Taxability, the Bonds shall be redeemed in whole on a date selected by the
Borrower not later than 180 days following such occurrence at a redemption
price equal to 102% of the outstanding principal amount thereof plus
accrued interest thereon to the redemption date. In the event of such
redemption, all funds held under this Agreement other than amounts on
deposit in the Rebate Fund and funds necessary to pay Additional Payments
shall be available to pay principal of and premium and interest on the
Bonds. As used herein, a "Determination of Taxability" shall be deemed to
occur if a final decree or judgment of any federal court or a final action
of the Internal Revenue Service determines that interest paid or payable on
any Bond is or was includable in the gross income of a Bondholder for
federal income tax purposes under the Code (other than a holder who is a
substantial user or related person within the meaning of Section 147(a) of
the Code) due to any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Borrower or
the Issuer. No such decree, judgment or action will be considered final for
this purpose, however, unless the Borrower or the Issuer has been given
notice, and, if it is so desired and is legally allowed, has been afforded
the opportunity to contest the same, either directly or in the name of any
Bondholder, and until conclusion of any appellate review, if sought. If the
Trustee receives written notice from any Bondholder stating that such
Bondholder has been notified in writing by the Internal Revenue Service
that it proposes to include the interest on such Bond in the gross income
of such holder for the reasons described herein or any other proceeding has
been instituted against such holder which may lead to a final decree,
judgment or action as described herein, then the Trustee shall promptly
give notice thereof to the Borrower, the Issuer and each Bondholder. Such
holder will afford the Borrower the opportunity to contest such claim or
proceeding, either directly or in the name of such holder, until conclusion
of any appellate review, if sought. The Trustee shall thereafter coordinate
any similar requests or notices it may have received from other Bondholders
and shall keep them informed of the progress of any administrative
proceedings or litigation.
-23-
Section 402. SELECTION OF BONDS TO BE REDEEMED. A redemption of Bonds
shall be a redemption of the whole or of any part of the Bonds, provided,
that there shall be no partial redemption of less than $100,000. If less
than all the Bonds shall be called for redemption under any provision of
this Agreement permitting such partial redemption the particular Bonds to
be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee, in such manner as the Trustee
in its discretion may deem fair and appropriate; provided, however (a) that
the portion of any Bond to be redeemed under any provision of this
Agreement shall be in the principal amount of $100,000 or any multiple
thereof, (b) that, in selecting Bonds for redemption, the Trustee shall
treat each Bond as representing that number of Bonds which is obtained by
dividing the principal amount of such Bond by $100,000 and (c) that, to the
extent practicable, the Trustee will not select any Bond for partial
redemption if the amount of such Bond remaining outstanding would be
reduced by such partial redemption to less than $100,000. If there shall be
called for redemption less than all of a Bond, the Issuer shall execute and
deliver and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon surrender of such Bond,
and at the expense of the Borrower and without charge to the owner thereof,
a replacement Bond in the principal amount of the unredeemed balance of the
Bond so surrendered.
At its option, to be exercised on or before the 60th day next
preceding any mandatory scheduled redemption date pursuant to Section
401(c) (iii), the Borrower may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation
Bonds in any aggregate principal amount which have been purchased by the
Borrower in the open market. Each Bond 50 delivered shall be credited by
the Trustee at 100% of the principal amount thereof against the mandatory
scheduled redemption requirement provided in Section 401(c) (iii) on such
mandatory redemption date and against the monthly Loan payments required to
be made with respect to such mandatory scheduled redemption requirement
under Section 1001B; and any excess of such amount shall be credited
against future mandatory scheduled redemption requirements and against the
corresponding portions of the monthly Loan payments in chronological order.
The Borrower, will, on or before the 60th day preceding each mandatory
scheduled redemption date, furnish the Trustee with a certificate, signed
by an Authorized Borrower Representative, stating the extent to which the
provisions of the first sentence of this paragraph are to be availed of
with respect to such mandatory redemption requirements for such mandatory
redemption date; unless such certificate is so timely furnished to the
Trustee, the mandatory redemption requirements provided for such date in
Section 401(c) (iii) and the corresponding portions of the monthly Loan
payments shall not be reduced under the provisions of this paragraph.
-24-
Section 403. PROCEDURE FOR REDEMPTION.
(a) In the event any of the Bonds are called for redemption, the
Trustee shall give notice, in the name of the Issuer, of the redemption of
such Bonds, which notice shall (i) specify the Bonds to be redeemed, the
redemption date, the redemption price, and the place or places where
amounts due upon such redemption will be payable (which shall be the
corporate trust office of the Trustee) and, if less than all of the Bonds
are to be redeemed, the numbers of the Bonds, and the portions of the
Bonds, so to be redeemed, (ii) state any condition to such redemption, and
(iii) state that on the redemption date, and upon the satisfaction of any
such condition, the Bonds to be redeemed shall cease to-bear interest.

notice may set forth any additional information relating to such
redemption. Such notice shall be given by registered or certified mail at
least 30 days (or, in the case of acceleration of the Bonds pursuant to
Section 1102, seven days) but not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed
for redemption to each Registered Owner of Bonds to be redeemed at its
address shown on the registration books kept by the TrUstee provided,
however, that failure to give such notice to any Bondholder or any defect
in such notice shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the
redemption of any of the other Bonds.
Except at any time during which all of the Bonds are registered in
the name of Cede & Co., notice of such redemption also shall be sent by
registered mail, overnight delivery service or other similar means, postage
prepaid, to the municipal registered securities depositories named below
which are known to the Trustee to be holding Bonds and to at least two of
the national information services named below that disseminate securities
redemption notices, when possible, at least five days prior to the mailing
of notices required by the first paragraph above, but in any event at least
30 days (or, in the case of acceleration of the Bonds pursuant to Section
1102, seven days) and not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date;
provided that neither failure to receive such notice nor any defect in
any-notice so mailed shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for
the redemption of such Bonds.

Article 5 - Source and Application of Funds
Section 501. PROJECT FUND. A Project Fund is hereby established by
the Issuer with the Trustee. Within the Project Fund there are hereby
established three separate accounts, viz., the Capitalized Interest
Account, the Costs of Remarketing Account and the Construction Account.
A. SOURCE AND DISBURSEMENTS. Not later than one day following the
Remarketing Date, the funds on deposit in the Escrow Account established
under the Original Agreement shall be applied as follows: (1) $38,333.33
(on the Remarketing Date) to pay interest on the Bonds to the existing
holders thereof, (2) $4,000,000 to be deposited into the Debt Service
Reserve, (3) $36,000,000 to be deposited into the Project Fund and (4) the
remainder to be deposited into the Rebate Fund. The $36,000,000 deposited
into the Project fund shall be allocated as follows: $8,044,444 to be
deposited in the Capitalized Interest Account, $800,000 to be deposited in
the Costs of Remarketing Account and the remainder to be deposited in the
Construction Account.
(a) DISBURSEMENTS FROM CAPITALIZED INTEREST ACCOUNT. Not
later than 12:00 noon, Eastern time, on the Business Day next preceding
each March 1 and September 1, commencing March 1, 1992 and ending on the
March 1 or September 1 next
-26-
preceding the Estimated Completion Date, the Trustee shall withdraw
from the Capitalized Interest Account and deposit into the Bond Fund an
amount which, together with any funds then on deposit in- the Bond Fund,
shall be sufficient to pay all interest due on the Bonds on such March 1 or
September 1. Payment of such amount in full under this Section 501A shall
satisfy the obligation of the Borrower to make such payment under Section
1001A. Prior to the Completion Date, all investment earnings on the
Capitalized Interest Account shall be transferred when realized to the
Construction Account. In addition, in the event that the Borrower shall
give the Trustee written notice that the Borrower expects the acquisition,
construction, equipping and furnishing of the Project to be completed by a
date prior to the Estimated Completion Date, which notice shall specify the
new expected Completion Date and shall be accompanied by a certificate of
the Construction Inspector that it is reasonable to expect the Project to
be completed by such date, then the Trustee shall calculate the amount
required to be retained in the Capitalized Interest Account in order to
provide for the payment of interest on the Bonds through the new expected
Completion Date (taking into account earnings on investments of such
amount, to the extent that such investments actually have been made) and
shall transfer to the Construction Account an amount equal to the positive
difference, if any, between the amount then on deposit in the Capitalized
Interest Account and the amount required to be retained as provided above.
(b) DISBURSEMENTS FROM COSTS OF REMARKETING ACCOUNT. Not
later than one day following the Remarketing Date, the Trustee shall
transfer from the Costs of Remarketing Account to the Construction and
Operating Costs Contingency Fund the sum of up to $500,496.70, representing
reimbursement and recontribution to the Project of costs of issuance and
remarketing identified in the Equity Costs Certificate, and shall
distribute the remainder of the funds in the Costs of Remarketing Account
as instructed by the Borrower.
(c) DISBURSEMENTS FROM CONSTRUCTION ACCOUNT. Not later than
one day following the Remarketing Date, there shall be transferred from the
Construction Account to the Construction and Operating Costs Contingency
Fund the sum of up to $2,199,466.99, representing reimbursement and
recontribution to the Project of eligible project costs identified in the
Equity Costs Certificate. Disbursements from the Construction Account of
the Project Fund shall be applied for the payment or reimbursement of the
following costs:
-27-
(i) Costs incurred directly or indirectly for or in
connection with the acquisition, construction, equipping or furnishing of
the Project, including preliminary planning and studies, architectural,
legal, engineering and supervisory services, other labor and services,
materials, acquisition and installation.
(ii) Any other incidental and necessary costs and expenses
relating to the acquisition, construction, equipping or furnishing of the
Project, including without limitation interest on the Bonds, if any,
accruing after the Estimated Completion Date and prior to the Completion
Date and not paid from the Capitalized Interest Account, but not including
"issuance costs" within the meaning of Section 147(g) (1) of the Code.
Such disbursements from the Construction Account shall be made only
as provided in and subject to the terms of the Disbursement Agreement.
Except as provided in the first sentence of this subsection (c), no funds
shall be disbursed from the Construction Account to pay or reimburse any
costs listed in the Equity Costs Certificate.
In addition, in the event that the Completion Date shall not have
occurred on or before the Estimated Completion Date, then on each date
thereafter occurring on or before the Completion Date on which a Loan
payment is due and payable under Section 1001A or 1001B, the Trustee
without need for requisition shall transfer from the Construction Account
to the Bond Fund such amount, if any, as shall be necessary to meet the
Loan payment required to be made on such date. Payment of any Loan payment
in full on any such date under this Section 501A shall satisfy the
obligation of the Borrower to make such payment under Section 1001B.
B. TRANSFER OF CAPITALIZED INTEREST ACCOUNT ON COMPLETION. On the
earlier of the Estimated Completion Date and the Completion Date, the
Trustee shall withdraw from the Capitalized Interest Account and deposit
into the Bond Fund an amount equal to the amount of interest on the Bonds
accrued through such date and unpaid, less any amount then on deposit in
the Bond Fund. Any amount remaining in the Capitalized Interest Account
shall be transferred to the Construction Account, and the Capitalized
Interest Account thereupon shall be closed.
C. TRANSFER OF CONSTRUCTION ACCOUNT ON COMPLETION. Except as
otherwise provided in the next-to-last sentence of this Section 501C, all
moneys in the Construction Account (including moneys earned thereon by
investment and amounts transferred from the Capitalized Interest Account
pursuant to Section 501B) remaining after the Completion Date shall
promptly at the written
-28-
direction of an Authorized Borrower Representative be (i) paid into the
Bond Fund and applied promptly to redeem principal of the Bonds in
accordance with Section 401(c) (i) so as, to the extent possible, to
exhaust such amount, or (ii) paid into the Bond Fund and applied to pay
interest on the Bonds, or (iii) such combination of the foregoing as is
provided in such direction; provided that (a) before any funds are applied
pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this Section 501C the Trustee shall
have received an opinion of Bond Counsel or a ruling of the Internal
Revenue Service that such payment will not adversely affect the exclusion
from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest paid on
the Bonds and (b) the Trustee shall give notice of any redemption of Bonds
pursuant to clause (i) or (iii) of this Section 501C to the Bondholders at
least 30 days prior to the redemption date and otherwise in accordance with
Section 403. However, amounts certified to the Trustee by the Authorized
Borrower Representative shall be retained in the Construction Account for
payment of costs referred to in Section 501A not yet due and payable. Any
such retained funds remaining after full payment of all such costs shall be
likewise applied as aforesaid.
D. BORROWER REQUIRED TO PAY COSTS IF PROJECT FUND INSUFFICIENT. If
the moneys in the Project Fund are not sufficient to pay in full the costs
to be paid therefrom, the Borrower agrees to complete the acquisition,
construction, equipping and furnishing of the Project and to pay all costs
therefor in excess of the moneys available in the Project Fund. The Issuer
makes no warranty, express or implied, that moneys paid into the Project
Fund or otherwise available to complete the Project will be sufficient to
pay all costs therefor.
Section 502. BOND FUND. A Bond Fund is hereby established by the
Issuer with the Trustee, and the Trustee is hereby appointed paying agent
for the Bonds. Moneys shall be deposited in the Bond Fund from time to time
and shall be applied solely as follows:

the principal of the Bonds as provided in Section 403, without premium,
immediately upon the earliest practicable redemption date selected by the
Trustee for the redemption without further authorization from the Borrower
or the Issuer so as, to the extent possible, to exhaust such amount. Any
balance remaining after such application shall be applied to pay interest

the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.3 of the Hyatt Management Agreement

following the Completion Date, there shall remain monies in the Revenue
Fund after satisfaction of all payments listed above through such date and
no Default shall exist hereunder (or, prior to the Credit Enhancement
Termination Date, under the Credit Enhancement Agreement) , then such
monies (excluding any portion thereof properly allocable to the accrued
portion of a future payment listed above) shall be distributed to the
Borrower. Payment by the Trustee under this Section 502A of an obligation
of the Borrower referred to above shall satisfy such obligation in the same
manner as if made by the Borrower directly. However, failure of the Trustee

Bond Fund to be applied as provided in Section 1105.
Section 503. DEBT SERVICE RESERVE FUND. A Debt Service Reserve Fund

follows:
(a) The Trustee shall determine the value of the investments
and funds on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Fund as of each March 31,
June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing December 31, 1991, and on
such other dates as the Borrower shall request upon reasonable written
notice. Not later than 21 days following each such valuation, the Trustee
shall report to the Borrower the difference, if any, between (i) the value
of the investments and funds on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Fund as
of such valuation date and (ii) the Required Debt Service Reserve Amount.
If such difference is positive, then on or before the applicable 21st day,
the Trustee shall withdraw an amount equal to such difference from the Debt
Service Reserve Fund and deposit the same, if the deposit is made on or
prior to the earlier of the Estimated Completion Date and the Completion
Date, into the Construction Account of the Project Fund or, if the deposit
is made after such date, into the Bond Fund. If such difference is
negative, the Borrower will replenish the Debt Service Reserve Fund as
provided in Section, 1001E.

(b) In the event that as of the close of business on the
Business Day next preceding a Payment Date moneys held in the Bond Fund are

the Bonds due and payable on such Payment Date, then immediately following
the opening of business on such Payment Date the Trustee shall transfer
from the Debt Service Reserve Fund to the Bond Fund an amount equal to the
lesser of (i) the amount of such insufficiency and (ii) the amount then on
deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Fund; provided that no such transfer
shall be made unless all of the Revenue Fund, the Construction and
Operating Costs Contingency Fund, the Equity Reserve Fund and the
Supplemental Equity Fund shall have been exhausted; and provided, further,
that no such transfer shall be made on or prior to the Completion Date
unless-the Project Fund shall have been exhausted.
(c) In the event that any Loan Payment required to be made
under Section 1001B shall not be made on the date due (whether directly by
the Borrower or pursuant to Section 501A or 502A), then on the next
succeeding Business Day the Trustee shall transfer from the Debt Service
Reserve Fund to the Bond Fund an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the
amount of such insufficiency and (ii) the amount then on deposit in the
Debt Service Reserve Fund; provided that no such transfer shall be made
unless all of the Revenue Fund; the Construction and Operating Costs
Contingency Fund, the Equity Reserve Fund and the Supplemental Equity Fund
shall have been exhausted; and provided, further, that no such transfer
shall be made on or prior to the Completion Date unless the Project Fund
shall have been exhausted.
(d) Upon any acceleration under Section 1102, the Trustee
forthwith shall transfer all amounts in the Debt Service Reserve Fund to
the Bond Fund to be applied as provided in Section 1105.
(e) In the event that the Borrower shall be unable to pay
from any other source amounts required to be deposited into the Rebate Fund
or paid to the United States of America under Section 504, then upon
written requisition therefor from the Borrower the Trustee shall transfer
from the Debt Service Reserve Fund to the Rebate Fund the amount required
to be deposited into the Rebate Fund or paid to the United States of
America under Section 504; provided, that no such transfer shall be made
unless no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (other than a
Default under Section 504) and unless the Trustee shall have been furnished
an opinion of Bond Counsel or a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service that
such application of funds in
-33-
the Debt Service Reserve Fund would not adversely affect the
exclusion from gross income for federal tax purposes of the interest paid
on the Bonds.
(f) Upon receipt of written advice of Bond Counsel from time
to time stating that the principal amount of the Debt Service Reserve Fund
must be reduced in order to assure that the interest income on the Bonds
will not become subject to federal income taxation, stating that Bond
Counsel does not consider that any other means of protecting the tax-exempt
status of such interest income (such as restricting yield on amounts in the
Debt Service Reserve Fund, investing the same only in tax-exempt
obligations or other methods) is available and specifying the amount of the
reduction required, the Trustee promptly shall transfer to the Bond Fund
the amount so specified.
Section 504. REBATE FUND. The Borrower covenants that it shall take
all action necessary to comply with Section 148 of the Code, including the
payment when due of all amounts payable to the United States of America
thereunder, and shall refrain from taking any action contrary to Section
148 of the Code. For this purpose, a Rebate Fund has been established
pursuant to this Section 504, but to the extent any of the provisions of
this Section 504 are inconsistent with Section 148 of the Code, the
Borrower shall not be required to comply with such provisions but shall be
required to comply with Section 148 of the Code.
(a) ESTABLISHMENT. A Rebate Fund is hereby established with the
Trustee. Such Fund shall be for the sole benefit of the United States of
America and shall not be subject to the lien of this Agreement or to the
claim of any other Person, including without limitation the Bondholders and
the Issuer, and monies in such Fund shall not be commingled with moneys in
any other Fund or Account established under this Agreement. The Rebate Fund
is established for the purpose of compliance with Section 148(f) of the
Code. The Borrower and the Issuer agree that the requirements of this
Section 504 are subject to, and shall be interpreted in accordance with,
Section 148(f) of the Code.
(b) TRANSFERS TO REBATE FUND. Promptly following the close of each
Bond Year and also upon the final maturity date of the Bonds (the "Final
Computation Date"), the Trustee shall upon the direction of the Borrower as
prescribed in subsections (c) and (d) hereof:
(i) transfer to the Rebate Fund first, from the Project Fund,
and second, to the extent amounts in the project Fund are insufficient,
from the Bond Fund, and third, to the extent amounts in the Bond Fund are
insufficient, from (in order) the Construction and
-34-
Operating Costs Contingency Fund, the Supplemental Equity Fund and
the Equity Reserve Fund, an amount (to the extent available) equal to the
Excess Earnings as determined by the Borrower under subsection (c) hereof
(less any amount already transferred to the Rebate Fund on account of such
period from the Escrow Account of the Project Fund pursuant to Section 405)
; and
(ii) pay to the United States of America, if then required by,
and otherwise in accordance with, the provisions of subsection (d) hereof,
such amounts from the Rebate Fund as the Borrower shall determine, or cause
to be determined, to be due. Any amounts due in excess of amounts in the
Rebate Fund shall be paid by the Borrower.
(c) CALCULATION OF EXCESS EARNINGS.
(i) Promptly upon the close of each month, and also promptly
after the Final Computation Date, or at such other times as may be
specified by the Borrower, the Trustee shall provide the Borrower with a
statement of earnings (for the period since the date of the immediately
preceding statement of earnings) on all Funds or accounts with respect to
the Bonds held in trust under this Agreement. The statement shall include
the purchase and sales prices of all Investment Property, the dates of each
investment transaction, information as to whether such transactions were
made at a discount or premium, and such other information known to the
Trustee as the Borrower shall reasonably require. Within 45 days after the
close of each Bond Year or after such Final Computation Date, as the case
may be, the Borrower shall thereupon determine or cause to be determined
the amount of Excess Earnings on all Gross Proceeds of the Bonds, whether
or not held hereunder invested in Investment Property as such terms are
used in Section 148 of the Code.
In general, "Excess Earnings" for any period of time means the
sum of (1) the excess of --
(A) the aggregate amount earned during such period of time on
all "Nonpurpose Investments" (including gains on the disposition of such
investments) in which "Gross Proceeds" of the issue are invested (other
than amounts attributable to an excess described in this subsection (c) (i)
(l)), over
(B) the amount that would have been earned during such period
of time if the "Yield" on such Nonpurpose Investments (other than amounts
attributable to an excess
-35-
described in this subsection (c) (i) (1)) had been equal to the Yield
on the issue, plus
(2) any income during such period of time attributable to the excess
described in subsection (c) (i) (1) above, less (3) any amounts previously
rebated to the United States of America.
(ii) Except as may otherwise be provided by law, Excess
Earnings shall not include any earnings on obligations the interest on
which is excludable from federal gross income under Section 103 of the
Code. Further, Excess Earnings shall not include earnings on the Bond Fund
in any year in which (a) the Bond Fund constitutes a "bona fide debt
service fund" and (b) gross earnings on such fund are less than $100,000. A
"bona fide debt service fund" refers to any fund, or aggregation of funds
(except amounts funded or derived from original proceeds of the Bonds),
whether or not held by the Trustee, to be used primarily for the purpose of
achieving a proper matching of revenues and debt service on the Bonds
within each Bond Year, which funds are depleted to pay such debt service at
least once a year, except for a reasonable carryover (not to exceed the
greater of one year's earnings on such funds or one-twelfth of annual debt
service).
(iii)
(A) No later than 45 days after the close of each Bond Year
and after the Final Computation Date the Authorized Borrower Representative
shall provide a certificate to the Trustee that this subsection (c) has
been fully complied with and shall provide in support of such certification
a certificate of an independent certified public accountant or other
professional with experience in compliance with Section 148 of the Code as
to the accuracy of the Borrower's computations or such other evidence of
compliance as may be approved by the Trustee in advance or a certificate of
such accountant or other professional or an opinion of Bond Counsel that
there were no Excess Earnings required to be deposited into the Rebate
Fund.
(B) If, at the close of any Bond Year, the amount in the
Rebate Fund exceeds the amount that would be required to be paid to the
United States of America under subsection (d) below if the Bonds had been
paid in full, upon presentation by the Authorized Borrower Representative
of a certificate to that effect in a form satisfactory to the Trustee such
excess shall promptly be paid into the
-36-
Project Fund or, if the Completion Certificate has been delivered, to
the Borrower.
(iv) The terms "Nonpurpose Investments", "Gross proceeds",
"Investment Property" and "Yield" shall have the meanings prescribed by
Section 148 of the Code and shall be applied in the manner prescribed in
such section.
(d) PAYMENT OF REBATE.
(i) On a date no later than 60 days after the close of last
day of the fifth Bond Year and each succeeding fifth Bond Year or at such
other times as the Borrower may specify with the concurrence of Bond
Counsel, or such other time as may be provided by law, the Trustee, at the
written direction of the Authorized Borrower Representative, shall pay to
the United States from amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund at least the
amount required to be paid pursuant to the provisions of Section 148(f) of
the Code as calculated by or on behalf of the Borrower, provided that any
amount due in excess of amounts in the Rebate Fund shall be paid by the
Borrower. Within 60 days after the Final Computation Date, the Trustee, at
the written direction of the Authorized Borrower Representative, shall pay
to the United States of America from amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund
100% of the entire amount then payable pursuant to this Section 148(f) of
the Code as calculated by or on behalf of the Borrower, provided that any
amount due in excess of amounts in the Rebate Fund shall be paid by the
Borrower. Unless otherwise provided by law, each payment shall be made to
the Internal Revenue Service Center, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx 00000 or
any other address specified by the Internal Revenue Service, accompanied by
a copy of the applicable Form 8038-T and any additional materials that may
be required by law or regulation. Any officer of the Issuer is authorized
to execute a Form 8038-T for this purpose, but the preparation, accuracy
and completeness thereof are the sole responsibility of the Borrower.
(ii) No earlier than 60 days, or later than 35 days, before
each date on which a payment could become due under subsection (d) (i)
above (a "Rebate Payment Date"), the Trustee shall notify the Borrower at
its Notice Address by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or by
telegram, of its obligation to comply with the requirements of this
subsection (d).
(iii) Not later than 15 days prior to each Rebate Payment Date,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Trustee (A) a copy of the Form 8038-T
filed with respect to the Bonds,
-37-
(B) a certificate of the Authorized Borrower Representative
summarizing the determination of the amount then required to be paid
pursuant to the subsection (d) (i) above and including the CUSIP number, if
any, for the Bond with the latest maturity for which there is a CUSIP
number, (C) a certificate of an independent certified public accountant as
to the accuracy of such determination or such other evidence of compliance
as may be approved by the Trustee in advance, and (D) if the amount then
held in the Rebate Fund is less than the amount so determined, an amount in
cash in funds available on such 15th day equal to the difference. Upon
receipt of such materials, the Trustee shall make the payment provided for
in subsection (d) (i) above. In the event that the Trustee shall not have
received all of such materials on or within five days following the date
specified in the first sentence of this subsection (d) (iii), it shall pay
over to the United States within the period prescribed in subsection (d)
(i) above all of the funds then held in the Rebate Fund and, if so provided
by the Borrower, the Form 8038-T.
(iv) In the event the Trustee fails to receive the materials
described in subsection (d) (iii) above, the Trustee will notify the
Borrower within five days at its Notice Address by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, or by telegram, of the following requirement: The
Borrower must provide to the Trustee within 90 days from the date of such
notice an unqualified opinion of Bond Counsel stating that no further
action by the Borrower or the Trustee 15 necessary for full compliance with
Section 148(f) of the Code or that the failure to comply was an "innocent
failure" as defined in the Code, such failure has been corrected and such
failure has not resulted and will not result in interest on the Bonds
becoming includable for federal tax purposes in the gross income of the
Bondholders. A copy of the notice and opinion referred to in the first
sentence of this subsection (d) (iv) shall also be sent by the Trustee
promptly by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or by telegram,
to each Bondholder at its address as it appears on the Bond registration
books.
(v) By agreeing to give the notices referred to in this
subsection (d) of this Section 504 and to make the payments referred to in
this Section 504, the Trustee assumes no responsibility whatsoever for
compliance by the Borrower with the requirements of Section 148(f) of the
Code. The Borrower and the Issuer each expressly agrees that
(notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement) any failure of the
Trustee to give any such notice, for any reason whatsoever, shall not cause
the
-38-
Trustee to be responsible for any failure of the Borrower to comply
with the requirements of said Section 148(f). The Trustee shall not be
responsible for making the calculations required to be made pursuant to
this Section 504, nor shall it have any responsibility to review the
correctness or accuracy of the calculations or for determining whether the
investment directions given by the Borrower comply with Section 148(f) of
the Code.
(e) CONCLUSIVE COMPLIANCE BY TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall be deemed
conclusively to have complied with the provisions of this Section if it
makes payments in accordance with the certifications and directions of the
Borrower provided in accordance with this Section 504. The Trustee shall
not be required to take any actions in connection with certifications from
the Borrower or in the absence of such certifications, except as required
by subsection (h) of this Section 504.
(f) RECORDS. The Borrower and Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, and
the Issuer, shall keep such records as will enable them to fulfill their
respective responsibilities under this Section 504 and Section 148(f) of
the Code. For purposes of the computation required under this Section 504,
the Trustee shall make available to the Borrower and the Issuer during
normal business hours all information in the Trustee's control which is
necessary to such computations.
(g) THE ISSUER. The Issuer shall not take any action, or knowingly
omit to take any action within its control, which, if taken or omitted,
respectively, would violate its non-arbitrage certificate delivered upon
the initial issuance of the Bonds or any amendment thereof or supplement
thereto.
(h) ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION. Notwithstanding anything in this
Section 504 to the contrary, and in furtherance of the purposes of the last
sentence of Section 504(a), the Trustee, at the written direction of the
Borrower, will provide to the United States of America at such times and at
such places as the Borrower may direct such additional materials as the
Borrower may instruct the Trustee to deliver to the United States of
America; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee need take no action under this
subsection (h) unless the Borrower shall have delivered to the Trustee such
materials and the address or addresses to which such materials are to be
sent by the Trustee no later than 15 days prior to the date on which
delivery of such materials is to be received by the United States of
America.
(i) SECTION 504 SURVIVES DEFEASANCE OF AGREEMENT. This Section 504
as amended from time to time, shall survive the defeasance of this
Agreement with respect to the Bonds, and only upon (i) the retirement of
the Bonds or provision for the same

148 of the Code with respect to such Bonds, and (iii) presentation of a
certificate from the Borrower in a form satisfactory to the Trustee that
the provisions of Section 148 of the Code have been satisfied shall any
amounts remaining in the Rebate Fund be paid to the Borrower.
Section 505. CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATING COSTS CONTINGENCY FUND. There
is hereby established with the Trustee a Construction and operating Costs
Contingency Fund to be funded with moneys of the Borrower other than
proceeds of the issuance of the Bonds and to be held by the Trustee as part

shall be less than $1,500,000 after giving effect to such disbursement,
except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Credit Enhancer in its sole
discretion.
The Borrower shall ensure that all amounts held in the Construction
and Operating Costs Contingency Fund shall be invested to produce a Yield
not higher than the Yield on the Bonds unless the Trustee is provided with

affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of
the interest paid on the Bonds. The Trustee shall furnish to the Issuer and
the Borrower a report as of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31
of each year detailing the receipts, disbursements and ending balance in

Fund in any Qualified Investments and shall sell or liquidate any such
investment, in each case upon the written direction of an Authorized
Borrower Representative, subject in each case to the restrictions on
investments set forth in this Section 506 and in other provisions
of this Agreement. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for any losses
resulting from such investment or liquidations, nor shall the Trustee be

provided that the Trustee shall have complied with any investment
instructions delivered to it by Bond Counsel. Moneys in the Bond Fund and
the Debt Service reserve Fund shall be invested by the Trustee only in
United States Obligations and investments described in clause (ix) or (x)
of the definition of Qualified Investments and in Qualified Repurchase

(x) or (xi) of such definition, the maturities or redemption dates of all
of which shall coincide as nearly as practicable with, but not be later
than, the time or times at which said moneys will be required for the
purposes of this Agreement; and the investments in the Debt Service Reserve
Fund at no time shall have a weighted average life to maturity of more than
five years. Any investments pursuant to this Section 506 may be purchased
from the Trustee. The Trustee is authorized to sell or otherwise converted
into cash investments credited to any Fund or Account created under this
Agreement at the times and in the amounts necessary to meet payments when
due from such Fund or Account and shall include all proceeds from such
investments. No order of the Borrower shall restrict such authorization,
and the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss occurring from any such
sale or conversion to cash. Each Fund and Account shall include all
investments made from moneys credited to such Fund or Account and shall
include all proceeds from such investments. For purposes of this Agreement
(other than Section 507), such investments in the Debt Service Reserve Fund
shall be valued at amortized cost, and such investments in any other Fund
shall be valued at market value.
Section 507. MAXIMUM INVESTMENTS IN NONPURPOSE OBLIGATIONS. The
Borrower agrees, except as otherwise provided in Section 148(d) (3) of the
Code,
(i) at no time during any Bond Year shall the aggregate
amount of Gross Proceeds (within the meaning of Section 148(f) of the Code)
of the Bonds invested in Nonpurpose Investments (excluding, in accordance
with Section 148(d) (3) of the Code, Gross Proceeds invested during certain
temporary periods) with a Yield higher than the Yield on the Bonds exceed
150% of the debt service on the Bonds for such Bond Year, and
(ii) such aggregate amount of Gross Proceeds so invested
shall be promptly and appropriately reduced as the amount of outstanding
Bonds is reduced.
The requirements of this Section 507 are subject to and shall be
interpreted in accordance with Section 148(d) (3) of the Code.
Section 508. AVOIDANCE OF ARBITRAGE. Each of the Issuer and the
Borrower agrees to restrict the use of Bond proceeds in such manner and to
such extent as necessary to assure that the Bonds will not constitute
arbitrage bonds under Section 148 of the Code. Any officer of the Issuer
(including its Chairman, Vice Chairman, Executive Director and Secretary-
Treasurer) having responsibility with respect to the issuance of the Bonds
is authorized and directed, alone or in conjunction with any other officer,
employee or consultant of the Issuer or the Borrower, to give inappropriate
certificate on behalf of the Issuer, for inclusion in the transcript of
proceedings for the Bonds, setting for the facts, estimates and
circumstances and reasonable expectations pertaining to Section 148 of the
Code.
Section 509. AUTHORIZED APPLICATION OF FUNDS; MONEYS TO BE HELD
IN TRUST. The Trustee is authorized to apply each Fund as provided in this
Agreement. All moneys deposited with the Trustee hereunder shall be held
by the Trustee in trust but need not be segregated from other funds except
as required by law or by this Agreement.
Section 510. NONPRESENTMENT OF BONDS. From and after any
Payment Date, if moneys sufficient to pay principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on any Bond then due have been deposited with the Trustee and
irrevocably committed thereto, all liability of the Issuer and the Borrower
for the payment of such amount shall forthwith cease in accordance with
Section 103. The Trustee shall hold such funds, without liability for
interest thereon, for the benefit of the registered owner of such Bond, who
shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any claim with
respect to such amount. Unless otherwise required by law, any such funds
which remain unclaimed for three years after such due date shall be paid to
the Borrower without any interest thereon against written receipt therefor
executed on behalf of the Borrower, and neither the Issuer nor the Trustee
shall have any further responsibility with respect to such moneys.
Section 511. BONDS ARE NOT GENERAL OBLIGATIONS. The Bonds do
not now and shall never constitute a general obligation or debt or pledge
of the faith and credit of the Issuer, nor a debt or pledge of the faith
and credit of the Commonwealth or any political subdivision or municipality
thereof, and each covenant and undertaking by the Issuer herein, in the
Bonds and in any other Basic Agreement to make payments is not a general
obligation of the Issuer or a debt or a pledge of the faith and credit of
the Commonwealth or any political subdivision or municipality thereof. The
principal of and premium, if any, and
interest on the Bonds is a limited obligation payable solely from the
revenues, Funds and Accounts specifically pledged hereunder and the Credit
Enhancement Account pledged under the Credit Enhancement Agreement.
Nothing herein shall be construed as requiring the Issuer to use any funds
or revenues from any source other than as described herein.

reorganization, moratorium and other laws for the relief of
debtors heretofore or hereafter enacted to the extent that the same may be

amount available for such purpose and (ii) an amount equal to the
aggregate amount theretofore withdrawn from the Equity Reserve Fund less
the aggregate amount theretofore repaid under this Section 1001F.

the payments required by this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional
and shall not be subject to any right of recoupment or set-off. Until this
Agreement has terminated and ceased to have effect, the Borrower will not

fail to fulfill its other agreements herein for any cause, including
without limitation failure fully to acquire and install the Project, or
damage to the Project, any failure of consideration or commercial

Remarketing Agreement, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, the
Borrower shall indemnify and save harmless the Issuer (in its capacities as
issuer of the Bonds, issuer of the Official Statement and any preliminary
version thereof and party to this Agreement, the Contract of Purchase and
any other Basic Agreement) and the Trustee and their respective members,
directors, officers, employees and agents against and from any and all
liability and expenses arising from their participation in the transactions
contemplated hereby, including without limitation (a) any and all claims by
or on behalf of any Person arising out of (i) any condition of the Project,
or (ii) acquisition, installation, construction, reconstruction,
improvement, equipping, furnishing, use, occupancy, conduct of any work or
anything whatsoever done or omitted to be done in or about the Project, or
(iii) any accident, injury or damage whatsoever to any person occurring in
or about the Project, or (iv) any breach or default by the Borrower of any
of its obligations under the Basic Agreements or the Remarketing Agreement,
or (b) any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its agents,
contractors, servants, employees, or licensees, or (vi) the offering,
issuance, sale, remarketing or resale of the Bonds, or (vii) any action,
suit, claim or proceedings instituted or threatened in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) any and all losses, costs,
reasonable counsel fees, expenses or liabilities incurred in connection
with any
such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon and (c) any Costs of
Collection; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to
indemnify any Person otherwise to be indemnified under this Section 1003
for any liabilities or expenses incurred by such Person to the extent
caused by or resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of
such Person (limited, in the case of the Issuer and its members, directors,
officers, employees and agents to willful misconduct or gross negligence
committed in the capacities of the Issuer referred to above). In case any
action or proceedings is brought against the Issuer or the Trustee or any
such member, director, officer, employee or agent by reason of such claim,
the Borrower, upon notice from the affected party, shall resist or defend
such action or proceeding. Subject to the foregoing, the Issuer and the
Trustee shall cooperate and join with the Borrower at the expense of the
Borrower as may be required in connection with any action taken or defended
by the Borrower.
The Issuer and the Trustee and their respective members, directors,
officers, employees and agents shall be entitled to the advice of counsel
(who may also by counsel for the Borrower or any Bondholder) and shall be
wholly protected as to action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith in
reliance on such advice. They may rely conclusively on any communication
or other document furnished to them under the Basic Agreements or the
Remarketing Agreement and reasonably believed by them to be genuine. They
shall not be liable for any action (i) taken by them in good faith and
reasonably believed by them to be within the discretion or powers conferred
upon them, or (ii) in good faith not taken by them because reasonably
believed to be beyond the discretion or powers conferred upon them, or
(iii) taken by them pursuant to any direction or instruction by which they
are governed by the Basic Agreements or the Remarketing Agreement, or (iv)
omitted to be taken by them by reason of the lack of any direction or
instruction required hereby or by any of the other Basic Agreements or the
Remarketing Agreement for such action; nor shall they be responsible for
the consequences of any error or judgment reasonably made by them. The
Issuer and the Trustee shall in no event be liable for the application or
misapplication of funds, or for other acts or defaults, by an Person,
except their own members, directors, officers and employees and, as to the
Trustee, others specified in Section 1201(b). When any consent or other
action by them is called for by the Basic Agreements or the Remarketing
Agreement, they may defer such action pending receipt of such certificates,
opinions, documents or other supporting evidence as they may reasonably
required. They shall not be required to take any remedial action (other
than the giving of notice) unless indemnity reasonably satisfactory to them
is furnished for any expense or liability to be incurred thereby. They
shall be entitled to reimbursement for expenses reasonably incurred or
advances reasonably made, with
interest at the Shawmut Base Rate, in the exercise of their rights or the
performance of their obligations hereunder, to the extent that they act
without previously obtaining indemnity. No permissive right or power to
act which they may have shall be construed as a requirement to act; and no
delay in the exercise of a right or power shall affect the subsequent
exercise of that right or power. The Issuer shall not be required to take
notice of any breach or default by the Borrower under any Basic Agreement
or the Remarketing Agreement, except when given notice thereof by the
Trustee, nor shall it be required to monitor the financial condition of the
Borrower or the physical condition of the Project. No recourse shall be
had by the Borrower, the Trustee or any Bondholder for any claim based on
any Basic Agreement or the Remarketing Agreement against any member,
director, officer, employee or agent of the Issuer alleging personal
liability on the part of such person unless such claim is based upon the
willful dishonesty of or intentional violation of law by such person.
Section 1004. ADDITIONAL REMEDIES OF BONDHOLDERS. In the event
that and so long as the total of the sums on deposit in the Debt Service
Reserve Fund and the Credit Enhancement Account shall be less than
$8,000,000 (minus the aggregate amount of any reduction in the Maximum
Amount of Credit effected under Section 2.5 of the Credit Enhancement
Agreement), then at the direction of a Majority of the Bondholders the
Trustee shall, if satisfactory indemnity shall have been provided to it,
succeed to and exercise, as a Majority of the Bondholders shall direct, any
or all of the rights of the Borrower as owner under the Hyatt Management
Agreement or as ground lessee under the Ground Lease, including, but not
limited to, all such rights as the Borrower may have under such agreements
to direct the manager, to discharge the manager, to appoint a new manager,
to make improvements to the Project, to sublease the Project and, subject
to the Leasehold Mortgage and the leasehold mortgage securing the Credit
Enhancer, to sell the interest of the Borrower in the Project. The Trustee
shall have the benefit of, but shall subject to, the terms and condition of
the Hyatt Management Agreement or the Ground Lease, as the case may be,

their nature cannot reasonably be done, taken or remedied, as the case may
be, within such 30-day period, no Event of Default under this subsection
(e) shall be deemed to have occurred or to exist if and so long as the

Loan; provided, however, that if there shall have occurred any Event of
Default under subsection (h) of Section 1101, the principal of and premium,
if any, on all Bonds then outstanding and the interest accrued thereon and
all the Borrower's indebtedness on the Loan automatically shall become
immediately due and payable without any action by the Trustee. Interest

the extent permitted by law each remedy shall be cumulative and in addition
to any other remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing.
No delay or omission to exercise any right or power shall impair such
right or power or constitute a waiver of any default of Event of default or
acquiescence therein; and each such right and power may be exercised as
often as deemed expedient.
No waiver by the Trustee or the Bondholders of any Default or Event
of Default shall extend to any subsequent Default or Event of Default.

instruments in writing executed and delivered to the Trustee, to direct the

according to the amounts due respectively for interest and principal and
premium, if any, among Bondholders entitled to receive the payment being
made.
Section 1106. REMEDIES VESTED IN TRUSTEE. All rights of action
(including the right to file proofs of claim) under this Agreement or under
any of the Bonds may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of
any of the Bonds or their production in any proceeding; and any such
proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its name, as
Trustee, without the necessity of joining as plaintiffs or defendants any
holders of the Bonds; and any recovery of the judgement shall be for the
benefit of the holders of the Bonds, subject, however, to the provisions of
this Agreement.

knowledge thereof or has been notified as provided in Xxxxxxx 0000 (x),
(xxx) a Majority of the Bondholders shall have made written request to the
Trustee and shall have afforded the Trustee reasonable opportunity to

have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it, and (iv) the
Trustee shall have failed or refused to exercise its power or to institute
such proceeding. Such notice, request and offer of indemnity shall at the
option of the Trustee be conditions precedent to the execution of the
powers and trusts of this Agreement, and to any action for the enforcement
of this Agreement or of any right or remedy granted hereby; it being
understood and intended that the holders of the Bonds shall have no right
to affect or prejudice the lien of this Agreement by
their action or to enforce any right hereunder except in the manner herein

manner herein provided and for the benefit of the holders of all Bonds then
outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Bondholder shall have a
right of action to enforce the payment of the principal of and premium, if
any, and interest on any Bond held by it at and after the maturity thereof,
from the sources and in the manner expressed in such Bond.
Section 1108. WAIVERS OF EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The Trustee shall

and rescind any declaration of maturity of principal upon the written
request of a Majority of the Bondholders and, with respect to any right of
the Issuer of the Trustee to payment or reimbursement pursuant to Section
1001D or 1003, the written consent of the Issuer or the Trustee (as the

compliance with any obligation or agreement of the Borrower in this
Agreement and (iii) shall have access to and may examine and make copies of
the books, accounts and other data and tax returns of the Borrower.
However, the Issuer shall not be required to take any action which in its
opinion might cause it to expend time or money or otherwise incur any
liability unless satisfactory indemnity has been furnished to it.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement or any other basic
Agreement, the issuer may enforce its rights under Section 1001D, 1003 or
1004 by any lawful available remedy; and nothing in this Agreement or any
other Basic Agreement shall restrict the exercise of rights by the Issuer
as ground lessor under the Ground Lease, as operator of Boston-Xxxxx

PART IV: THE TRUSTEE
Article 12 - The Trustee
Section 1201. ACCEPTANCE OF TRUSTS. The Trustee accepts the
trusts imposed upon it by this Agreement and agrees to perform such trusts,
but only upon the terms and conditions contained herein and in Section
1003.
(a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an event of
Default and after the curing of all Events of Default which may have
occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement and the other Basic Agreements to
which it is a party, and no implied agreements or obligations shall be read
into this Agreement or any other Basic Agreement against the Trustee. In
case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall
exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement and
the other Basic Agreements, and use the same degree of care and skill in
its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.
(b) The Trustee, may execute any of its trusts or powers and
perform any of its duties through attorneys, agents, receivers or employees
but shall be answerable for their conduct in accordance with the above
standard, except that as to attorneys, agents and receivers the Trustee
shall be answerable only as to the selection of same in accordance with
said standards. The Trustee shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters of trust duties hereunder, and may pay reasonable
compensation to all such attorneys, agents, receivers, employees and
counsel as may reasonably be employed.
(c) Any action taken by the Trustee pursuant to this
Agreement upon the request or authority or consent of any person who at the
time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the
holder of any Bond shall be conclusive and binding upon all future holders
of such Bond.
(d) The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be
deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Default hereunder, except
Defaults described in Section 1101 (a), (b), (c), (d) or (i), unless the
Trustee shall be notified in writing of such Default by the Borrower or the
Issuer or by the holders of at lease 25% in aggregate principal amount of
Bonds then outstanding. Until such notice is received,
the Trustee may conclusively assume there is no such Default.
(e) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or
surety.
Section 1202. FEES AND EXPENSES OF TRUSTEE. The Borrower shall
pay the Trustee its normal and customary fees for its services rendered
hereunder during any period that no Event of default has occurred or is
continuing. The Borrower shall also reimburse the Trustee for all
advances, counsel fees and other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably made or
incurred by the Trustee in connection with its services hereunder and for
such reasonable fees as it may charge after an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing.
Section 1203. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE. Any corporation or association
into which the Trustee may be converted or merged, or with which it may be
consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer all or substantially all
its trust business and assets, and any corporation or association resulting
from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer, IPSO
FACTO, shall be and become successor Trustee hereunder and vested with all
the trusts, power, discretion, immunities, privileges and all other matters
as was its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument
or any further act on the part of the parties hereto, anything herein to
the contract notwithstanding; provided, however, that any such successor
Trustee shall be a trust company or bank in good standing having trust
powers and (unless otherwise permitted by the Enabling Act) authorized to
act as Trustee in Commonwealth.
Section 1204. RESIGNATION BY TRUSTEE; REMOVAL. The Trustee may
at any time resign from the trusts hereby created by giving 30 days'
written notice to the Issuer, to the Borrower and to each Bondholder, but
such resignation shall not take effect until the appointment of a successor
Trustee, acceptance by the successor Trustee of such trusts and recordation
of the assignment to such successor Trustee of the rights of the mortgagee,
secured party and assignee under the Borrower Security Instruments. The
Trustee may be removed at any time by an instrument or concurrent
instruments in writing delivered to the Trustee and to the Issuer and
signed by a Majority of Bondholders.
Section 1205. APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE. If the Trustee
hereunder shall resign or be removed, or be dissolved, or otherwise become
incapable of acting hereunder, or in case it shall be taken under the
control of any public officer or officers, or of a receiver appointed by a
court, a successor shall be appointed by the Borrower. If the Borrower
does not
appoint a successor Trustee within 30 days of the Trustee providing notice
of its resignation, the Trustee may petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee. At any time within one year
after any such vacancy shall have occurred and provided a court has not
appointed a successor Trustee as provided above, a Majority of the
Bondholders may appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument or concurrent
instruments in writing signed by or on behalf of such holders, which
appointment shall supersede any Trustee theretofore appointed by the
Borrower. Each successor Trustee shall be a trust company or bank in good
standing having trust powers and having a reported capital, surplus and
undivided profits of not less than $100,000,000. Any such successor
Trustee shall become Trustee upon giving notice to the Borrower, the Issuer
and the Bondholders, if any, of its acceptance of the appointment, vested
with all the property, rights and powers of the Trustee hereunder, without
any further act of conveyance. Any predecessor Trustee shall execute,
deliver and record and file such instruments as the Trustee may reasonably
require to confirm or perfect any such succession.
Section 1206. DEALING IN BONDS. The Trustee and any of its
directors, officers, employees or agents may become the owners of any or
all of the Bonds secured hereby.
Section 1207. TRUSTEE AS BOND REGISTRAR; LIST OF BONDHOLDERS.
The Trustee is hereby designated as bond registrar for the Bonds and, as
such, will keep on file a list of names and addresses of the holders of all
Bonds; provided, however, that the Trustee shall be under no responsibility
with regard to the accuracy of the address of any Bondholder. At
reasonable times under reasonable regulations established by the Trustee,
such list may be inspected and copied by the Borrower or by owners (or a
designated representative thereof) of Bonds then outstanding, such
ownership and the authority of any such designated representative to be
evidenced to the satisfaction of the Trustee.
Section 1208. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE AS CUSTODIAN OF FUNDS, BOND
REGISTRAR AND PAYING AGENT. In the event of a change in the office of
Trustee, the predecessor Trustee which has resigned or been removed shall
cease to be custodian of any funds it may hold pursuant to this Agreement,
and cease to be the bond registrar and paying agent for any of the Bonds,
and the successor trustee shall become such custodian, bond registrar and
paying agent.
Section 1209. ADOPTION OF AUTHENTICATION. In case any Bonds
shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any successor Trustee may
adopt the certificate of authentication of the predecessor Trustee and
deliver the Bonds as so authenticated.
Section 1210. DESIGNATION AND SUCCESSION OF PAYING AGENTS. After
15 days' written notice to the Borrower and subject to the Borrower's
approval (which shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed), the Trustee
may designate any other banks or trust companies as paying agent. Any bank
or trust company with or into which any paying agent other than the Trustee
may be merged or consolidated, or to which the assets and business of such
paying agent may be sold, shall be deemed the successor to such paying
agent for the purposes of this Agreement. If the position of such paying
agent shall become vacant for any reason, the Trustee shall, within 30 days
thereafter, appoint a bank or trust company located in the same state as
such paying agent to fill such vacancy, subject to the Borrower's approval
(which shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed). The paying agents
shall enjoy the same protective provisions in the performance of their
duties hereunder as are specified in Section 1201 with respect to the
Trustee, insofar as such provisions may be applicable.
Section 1211. TRUST ESTATE MAY BE VESTED IN CO-TRUSTEE. It is
the purpose hereof that there shall be no violation of any law of any
jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or
associations to transact business as trustee in such jurisdiction. It is
recognized that in case of litigation hereunder, and in particular in case
of the occurrence of an Event of Default, it may be necessary that the
Trustee appoint an additional institution as a separate Trustee or Co-
Trustee. The following provisions of this Section 1211 are adapted to
these ends.
Upon the incapacity or lack of authority of the Trustee, by reason of
any present or future law of any jurisdiction, to exercise any of the
rights, powers and trusts herein granted to the Trustee, each and every
remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate,
title, interest and lien expressed herein or intended to be exercised by or
vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be
exercisable by and vest in a separate Trustee or Co-Trustee appointed by
the Trustee but only to the extent necessary to enable the separate Trustee
or Co-Trustee to exercise such rights, powers and trusts, and every
agreement and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate
Trustee or Co-Trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.
Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from the Issuer
be required by the separate Trustee or Co-Trustee so appointed by the
Trustee in order to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to him or
it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and
all such deeds, conveyances and instruments shall, on request, be executed,
acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer. In case any separate
Trustee or Co-Trustee, or a successor to either, shall die, became
incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties,
rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such separate Trustee or
Co-Trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by
the Trustee until the appointment of a new Trustee or successor to such
separate Trustee or Co-Trustee. Any separate Trustee or Co-Trustee
appointed pursuant to this Section 1211 shall be a trust company or bank in
good standing having trust powers and having a reported capital, surplus
and individual profits of not less than $50,000,000.
Section 1212. TRUSTEE TO RETAIN INFORMATION. So long as any of
the Bonds shall be outstanding, the Trustee shall retain all certificates,
financial statements and other written information furnished to it by or on
behalf of the Borrower or any other Person under this Agreement and the
other Basic Agreements and shall make such documentation available for
review after reasonable notice during regular business hours at the
principal corporate trust office of the Trustee to any Bondholder and, so
long as the Bonds are held by the DTC or its nominee, to any beneficial
owner of Bonds presenting evidence of such ownership reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee. The Trustee shall permit such reviewers to
take copies of all or any part of such documentation, subject to their
payment of such reasonable copying and handling charges as the Trustee may
impose.
Section 1213. QUARTERLY FUND REPORTS. Within 30 days following
the end of each calendar quarter, commencing September 30, 1991, the
Trustee shall furnish to Issuer, the Borrower and each Beneficial Owner of
not less than $1,000,000 principal amount of the Bonds which shall have
requested the same in writing a report setting forth the balance in each
Fund and Account and in the Credit Enhancement Account as of the last day
of such fiscal quarter.

the Bonds for federal income tax purposes; and
(g) To effect any other change herein or therein which, in
the judgement of the Trustee, is not to the prejudice of the holders of the
Bonds.
Section 1302. SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENTS REQUIRING CONSENT OF

Basic Agreement shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in
accordance therewith.

Section 1407. BONDS OWNED BY ISSUER OR BORROWER. In determining

direction, consent or waiver, only Bonds which the Trustee knows are so
owned shall be so disregarded. Bonds so owned which have been pledged in
good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the
satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right so to act with respect to
such Bonds and that the pledgee is not the Issuer, the Borrower or any
Borrower Affiliate (unless one or more of such Persons own all of the Bonds
which are then outstanding, determined without regard to this Section

Trustee the property and rights herein described and the income and revenue
pledged hereby.

statements, and other instruments (and supplements and amendments to any of
the foregoing) to be recorded and filed as may be required by law in order
to preserve fully and protect the security of the holders of the Bonds and
the rights of the Trustee hereunder.
The Borrower shall cause to be filed any continuation statements or
instruments of a similar character serving a similar purpose which, in its
opinion, are required by law in order to preserve and protect the security
of the Bondholders and shall notify the Trustee of such filings.

partner of the Borrower, other than LHA-II, Inc. as sole general partner of
the Borrower, and no officer, employee or agent of the Borrower and no
stockholder, director, officer, employee or agent of any partner of the

each year, commencing March 1, 2001, in the amounts provided in Section
401(c) (iii) of the Loan and Trust Agreement, as the same may be adjusted
from time to time on account of an optional or mandatory partial redemption
of Bonds as provided in the last paragraph of Section 401(c) of the Loan
and Trust Agreement.
(d) SELECTION OF BONDS TO BE REDEEMED; PROCEDURE OF REDEMPTION. A
redemption of Bonds shall be a redemption of the whole or of any part of
the Bonds, provided, that there shall be no partial redemption of less than
$100,000 in principal amount of Bonds. If less than all the Bonds shall be
called for redemption under any provision of the Loan and Trust Agreement
permitting such partial redemption of the particular Bonds to be redeemed
shall be selected by the Trustee, in such manner as the Trustee in its
discretion may deem fair and appropriate; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, (x) that the
portion of any Bond to be redeemed under any provision of the Loan and
Trust Agreement shall be in the principal amount of $100,000 or any
multiple thereof, (y) that, in selecting Bonds for redemption, the Trustee
shall treat each in selecting Bonds for redemption, the Trustee shall treat
each Bond as representing that number of Bonds which is obtained by
dividing the principal amount of such Bond by $100,000 and (z) that, to the
extent practicable, the Trustee will not select any Bond for partial
redemption if the amount of such Bond remaining outstanding would be
reduced by such partial redemption to less than $100,000. If there shall
be called for redemption less than all of a Bond, the Issuer shall execute
and deliver and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon surrender of such
Bond, and at the expense of the Borrower and without charge to the owner
thereof, for the unredeemed balance of the Bond so surrendered, Bonds of
like maturity.
At its option, to be exercised on or before the 60th day next
preceding any mandatory scheduled redemption date referred to in subsection
(c) (iii) above, the Borrower may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation
Bonds in any aggregate principal amount which have been purchased by the
Borrower in the open market. Each Bond so delivered shall be credited by
the Trustee at 100% of the principal amount thereof against the mandatory
scheduled redemption requirement referred to in said subsection (c) (iii)
on such mandatory scheduled redemption date and against the monthly Loan
payments required to be made with respect to such mandatory scheduled
redemption requirement under Section 1001B of the Loan and Trust agreement,
and any excess of such amount shall be credited against future mandatory
scheduled redemption requirements and against the corresponding portions of
the monthly Loan payments in chronological order.
In the event any of the Bonds are called for redemption, the Trustee
shall give notice, in the name of the Issuer, of the redemption of such
Bonds, which notice shall (i) specify the Bonds to be redeemed, the
redemption date, the redemption price, and the place or places where
amounts due upon such redemption will be payable and, if less than all of
the Bonds are to be redeemed, the numbers of the Bonds, and the portions of
the Bonds, so to be redeemed, (ii) state any condition to such redemption,
and (iii) state that on the redemption date, and upon the satisfaction of
any such condition, the Bonds to be redeemed shall cease to bear interest.
CUSIP number identification shall accompany all redemption notices. Such
notice may set forth any additional information relating to such
redemption. Such notice shall be given by registered or certified mail at
least 30 days (or, in the case of acceleration of the Bonds pursuant to
Section 1102 of the Loan and Trust Agreement, seven days) but not more than
60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to each Registered Owner of
Bonds to be redeemed at its address shown on the registration books kept by
the Trustee; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that failure to give such notice to any
Registered Owner or any defect in such notice shall not affect the validity
of the proceedings for the redemption of any of the other Bonds. Except at
any time during which all of the Bonds are registered in the name of Cede &
Co., notice of such redemption also shall be sent by registered mail,
overnight delivery service or other similar means, postage prepaid, to
certain municipal registered Securities Depositories which are known to the
Trustee to be holding Bonds and to at least two of the national Information
Services that disseminate securities redemption notices, when possible, at
least five days prior to the mailing of notices required by the first
paragraph above, but in any event at least 30 days (or, in the case of
acceleration of the Bonds pursuant to Section 1102 of the Loan and Trust
Agreement, seven days) but not more than 60 days prior to the redemption
date; PROVIDED that neither failure to receive such notify nor any defect
in any
notice so mailed shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for the
redemption of such Bonds.
Any Bonds and portions of Bonds which have been duly selected for
redemption and which are paid in accordance with Section 510 of the Loan
and Trust Agreement shall cease to bear interest on the specified
redemption date.
6. ACCELERATION. In certain events as provided in the Loan and
Trust Agreement, the principal of all the Bonds then outstanding under the
Loan and Trust Agreement may become or be declared due and payable before
their stated maturity, together with interest accrued thereon.
7. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS. The Registered Owner shall have no
right to enforce the provisions of the Loan and Trust Agreement or to
institute or appear in proceedings with respect to the Loan and Trust
Agreement or its enforcement except as provided in the Loan and Trust
Agreement. Modifications or alterations of the Loan and Trust Agreement,
or of any supplements thereto, may be made only as provided to the Loan and
Trust Agreement.

Borrower Security Instruments and the other Basic Agreements, each of which
is on file and may be inspected during regular business hours at the
corporate trust office of the Trustee, for a description of the security
for the Bonds and for the provisions thereof with respect to the rights,
