(aa) No portion of the proceeds of the Series 2007 Bonds will be used to acquire existing property or any interest therein unless such acquisition meets the rehabilitation requirements of Section 147(d) of the Code.
(bb) The information furnished by the Company and used by the Issuer in preparing the certification pursuant to Section 148 of the Code and information statement pursuant to Section 149(e) of the Code, both referred to in the Bond Legislation, as well as the federal tax election referred to in the Bond Legislation, is accurate and complete as of the date of the issuance of the Series 2007 Bonds.

9
promptly and appropriately reduced as the amount of outstanding Series 2007 Bonds are reduced; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not require the sale or disposition of any investments in higher yielding investments if such sale or disposition would result in a loss which exceeds the amount which would be paid to the United States pursuant to Section 5.09 of the Indenture (but for such sale or disposition) at the time of such sale or disposition if a payment under Section 5.09 of the Indenture were due at such time.
At no time will any funds constituting gross proceeds of the Series 2007 Bonds be used in a manner as to constitute a prohibited payment under the applicable Regulations pertaining to, or in any other fashion as would constitute failure of compliance with, Section 148 of the Code.
For purposes of this subsection (dd), the terms “bond year,” “gross proceeds,” “higher yielding investments,” “yield,” and “debt service” have the meanings assigned to them for purposes of Section 148 of the Code.

(d) In case any contract provides for the retention by the Company of a portion of the contract price, there shall be paid from the Project Fund only the net amount remaining after deduction of any such portion, and only when that retained amount is due and payable, may it be paid from the Project Fund.
(e) Any moneys in the Project Fund remaining after the Completion Date and payment, or provision for payment, in full of the Project Costs, at the direction of the Authorized Company Representative, promptly shall be

(ii) used for the purchase of Series 2007 Bonds in the open market for the purpose of cancellation at prices not exceeding the full market value thereof plus accrued interest thereon to the date of payment therefor;

ARTICLE IV
LOAN BY ISSUER; REPAYMENT OF THE LOAN;
LOAN PAYMENTS AND ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS
Section 4.1. Loan Repayment; Delivery of Notes. (a) Upon the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment to Loan Agreement, the Issuer will make the Loan to the Company. In consideration of and in repayment of the Loan, the Company shall make, as Loan Payments, payments which correspond, as to amount, to the Bond Service Charges payable on the Bonds. All such Loan Payments shall be paid to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Project Note and the Series 2007 Project Note, shall be paid to the Trustee in immediately available funds on the Business Day prior to each day on which Bond Service Charges are payable on any Bonds and shall be held and disbursed in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and this Agreement for application to the payment of Bond Service Charges. The Loan and the Series 2007 Project Note shall be additionally secured by and in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement on a parity with the Project Note. The Project Note and Series 2007 Project Note shall be payable solely from and secured solely by the Company’s right to receive Income Available for Debt Service.
The Company shall be entitled to a credit against the Loan Payments next required to be made to the extent that the balance of the Bond Fund is then in excess of amounts required (1) for the payment of Bonds theretofore matured or theretofore called for redemption, (2) for the payment of interest for which checks or drafts have been drawn and mailed by the Trustee and (3) for the payment of interest for which moneys were deposited in the Bond Fund pursuant to Section 2.03(c) of the Indenture.
In any event, however, if on the Business Day prior to the date on which the Bond Service Charges are payable, the balance in the Bond Fund is insufficient to make required payments of Bond Service Charges, the Company forthwith will pay to the Trustee for deposit into the Bond Fund, any deficiency.
(b) If the Trustee withdraws moneys from the Bond Reserve Fund as provided in the Indenture due to a deficiency in the Bond Fund, or if upon a valuation of the amount on deposit in the Bond Reserve Fund which is required by Section 5.04(b) of the Indenture the Bond Reserve Value (as defined in the Indenture) is less than 90% of the Bond Reserve Requirement, and in either such case upon notification by the Trustee to the Company of the deficiency, the Loan Payments shall thereafter include such amounts, in equal monthly installments due on the first day of each succeeding six months, as are necessary to cause the Bond Reserve Value to be not less than the Bond Reserve Requirement within a period of 6 months from the date of such notice.
13
(c) In connection with the issuance of any Additional Bonds, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee one or more Additional Notes in a form substantially similar to the form of the Project Note and the Series 2007 Project Note as set forth in Section 4.1 (a) above. All such Additional Notes shall:
(i) provide for payments of interest equal to the payments of interest on the corresponding Additional Bonds;
(ii) require payments of principal and redemption payments and any premium equal to the payments of principal, prepayments and sinking fund payments and any premium on the corresponding Additional Bonds;
(iii) require all payments on any such Additional Notes to be made no later than the due dates for the corresponding payments to be made on the corresponding Additional Bonds; and
(iv) contain by reference or otherwise optional and mandatory redemption provisions and provisions in respect of the optional and mandatory acceleration or prepayment of principal and any premium corresponding with the redemption and acceleration provisions of the corresponding Additional Bonds.
All Notes shall secure equally and ratably all outstanding Bonds, except that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is subsisting hereunder, payments by the Company on any of the Notes shall be used by the Trustee to make a like payment of Bond Service Charges on the corresponding Bonds in connection with which those Notes were delivered and shall constitute Loan Payments made in respect of the related Bonds.
(d) Upon payment in full, in accordance with the Indenture, of the Bond Service Charges on any or all Bonds, whether at maturity or by redemption or otherwise, or upon provision for the payment thereof having been made in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, (i) the Notes issued concurrently with those corresponding Bonds, of the same maturity, bearing the same interest rate and in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds so surrendered and canceled or for the payment of which provision has been made, shall be deemed fully paid, the obligations of the Company thereunder shall be terminated, and any of those Notes shall be surrendered by the Trustee to the Company, and shall be canceled by the Company, or (ii) in the event there is only one of those Notes, an appropriate notation shall be endorsed thereon evidencing the date and amount of the principal payment or prepayment equal to the Bonds so paid, or with respect to which provision for payment has been made, and that Note shall be surrendered by the Trustee to the Company for cancellation if all Bonds shall have been paid (or provision made therefor) and canceled as aforesaid. Unless the Company is entitled to a credit under express terms of this Agreement or the Notes, all payments on each of the Notes shall be in the full amount required thereunder.
(e) Except for such interest of the Company as may hereafter arise pursuant to Section 8.5 of the Loan Agreement or for such interest of the Issuer as may hereafter arise pursuant to Section 5.07 of the Indenture, the Company and the Issuer each
14
acknowledge that neither the Company nor the Issuer has any interest in the Bond Fund and Bond Reserve Fund and any moneys deposited therein shall be in the custody of and held by the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.
