All transfers pursuant to this Section shall be made without expense to the holder of such Series 2019A Bonds, except that the Registrar shall require the payment by the holder of the Series 2019A Bond requesting such transfer of any tax or other governmental charges required to be paid with respect to such transfer. All Series 2019A Bonds surrendered pursuant to this Section shall be cancelled. Section 3.10. CUSIP Identification Numbers. CUSIP identification numbers may be printed on the Series 2019 A Bonds of any series, but no such number shall constitute a part of any Series 2019A Bond or a part of the contract evidenced thereby, and no liability shall attach to the City or any officer or agent thereof (including the Paying Agent and Registrar) by reason of said CUSIP identification numbers or any use made thereof (including any use thereof by the City, any such officer or any such agent) or by reason of any inaccuracy, error or omission with respect thereto or in such use.

(d) The Finance Director, the City Attorney, the City Clerk, the Finance Administrator and all other officials of the City are hereby authorized to take such action and execute such orders, receipts, opinions, certificates and other documents as may be necessary in order to effectuate the issuance, sale and delivery of the Series 2019A Bonds or any portion thereof and the preparation and execution of the Series 2019 A Bonds in accordance with this Ordinance and applicable law. It is also directed that a transcript shall be prepared of all proceedings on which rests the authority of the City to issue and sell the Series 2019A Bonds. Section 3.12. Application of Bond Proceeds. The proceeds derived from the sale of the Series 2019A Bonds, including any premium received upon the sale thereof shall be deposited in the Series 2019A Acquisition Fund created under Section 5.1 herein. Section 3.13. Refunding Bonds. The City, by means of a supplemental ordinance and without the consent of the Series 2019A Bondholders, may issue Refunding Bonds as follows: (a) Refunding Bonds may be issued for the purpose of refunding (including by purchase) within one year prior to maturity any Series 2019 A Bond for the payment of which sufficient Special Tax Revenues are not available. Any Refunding Bond issued for such purpose shall mature not earlier than the latest stated maturity of any Series 2019A Bond not refunded to be Outstanding after such refunding. (b) Refunding Bonds may be issued at any time for the purpose of refunding (including by purchase) at any time any Series 2019A Bonds, including amounts to pay principal and interest to the date of maturity or redemption (or purchase) and the expenses of issuing the Refunding Bonds and of effecting such refunding, provided that the Debt Service on all Series 2019A Bonds to be Outstanding after the issuance of the Refunding Bonds shall not be greater in any Fiscal Year in which Series 2019 A Bonds not refunded shall remain Outstanding than would have been the Debt Service in such Fiscal Year were such refunding not to occur ARTICLE IV REDEMPTION OF SERIES 2019A BONDSS Section 4.1. Optional Redemption of Series 2019A Bonds. Subject to the Final Terms Certificate and to Section 4.2 herein, the Series 2019A Bonds maturing on and after January 15, 2030 shall be subject to redemption prior to their stated maturities at the option of the City, on or after January 15, 2029, in whole or in part at any time, in such order of their maturities as the City may select, and by lot within each maturity from any legally available source of funds. The Series 2019A Bonds so called for redemption shall be redeemed at the price of par, plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, with no redemption premium. In conjunction with the negotiation of the sale of the Series 2019A Bonds pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof, the Finance Director is hereby authorized to negotiate, establish, fix and designate terms of the optional redemption of the Series 2019A Bonds different from those hereinabove set out, including, without limitation, terms providing for no optional redemption. Any such tem1s may provide for an initial optional redemption date of no later than the tenth anniversary of the date of issuance of the Series 2019 A Bonds. Section 4.2. Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption of Series 2019A Bonds. In conjunction with the negotiation of the sale of the Series 2019A Bonds pursuant to Section 3.11 herein, the Finance Director is hereby authorized to negotiate, establish, fix and designate the terms providing for the mandatory sinking fund redemption of the Series 2019A Bonds or a portion thereof. The terms of such mandatory sinking fund redemption, if any, shall specify the maturity or maturities of the Series 2019A Bonds subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption and the principal amount and date of each mandatory sinking fund redemption. The mandatory sinking fund redemption price shall be par without premium and the Series 2019A Bonds (or portions thereof) subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption on each mandatory sinking fund redemption date shall be selected by lot ( or in such other manner as the City may select). To the extent the Series 2019A Bonds have been previously called for redemption in part and otherwise than from the sinking fund, if any, each related annual sinking fund payment for the Series 2019 A Bonds shall be reduced by the amount obtained by multiplying the principal amount of such Series 2019A Bonds so called for redemption, by the ratio which each annual sinking fund payment for the Series 2019A Bonds bears to the total sinking fund payments of such Series 2019A Bonds subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption, and by rounding each sinking fund payment to the nearest $5,000 multiple. In case a Series 2019A Bond subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption is of a denomination larger than $5,000, a portion of such Series 2019A Bond ($5,000 or any multiple thereof) may be redeemed, but Series 2019A Bonds shall be redeemed only in the principal amount of $5,000 each or any integral multiple thereof. On or before the 30th day prior to each such mandatory sinking fund payment date, the Paying Agent shall proceed to select for redemption (by lot) from all outstanding Series 2019A Bonds subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption a principal amount of such Series 2019 A Bonds, equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Series 2019A Bonds redeemable with the required sinking fund payment, and shall call such Series 2019A Bonds or portions thereof ($5,000 or any integral multiple thereof) for redemption from such sinking fund on the next mandatory sinking fund redemption date, and give notice of such call as provided by Section 4.3 herein. Section 4.3. Notice and Effect of Redemption. If any Series 2019A Bond (or portion thereof in installments of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof) is to be redeemed, notice of redemption specifying the series designation, date, numbers and maturities of the Series 2019 A Bonds to be redeemed, the date fixed for their redemption and the premium, if any, payable upon such redemption shall be provided, not less than 30 days prior to the redemption date, by registered or certified mail, to the holder of any of such Series 2019A Bonds to be redeemed in whole or in part in whose name such Series 2019A Bond is registered as of a record date which shall be 45 days prior to the redemption date, at his or her last address as it appears on the Books of Registry maintained by the Registrar. If less than the entire principal sum of any Series 2019A Bond is to be redeemed, then such Series 2019A Bond must be surrendered in exchange for the amount thereof to be redeemed and a new Series 2019A Bond of like series, maturity and interest rate in the denomination equaling in principal amount that portion of the principal sum thereof not redeemed. When any of the aforesaid Series 2019A Bonds shall have been called for redemption and notice thereof has been given as hereinabove set forth and payment thereof duly made or provided for, interest thereon shall cease from and after the date so specified for their redemption. Section 4.4. Cancellation of Redeemed Series 2019A Bonds. All Series 2019A Bonds surrendered or redeemed pursuant to the provisions of this Article shall be cancelled. ARTICLE V CREATION OF FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS; PAYMENTS THEREFROM; PLEDGES; INVESTMENT OF MONEYS Section 5.1. Creation of Funds. There are hereby created and established two special trust funds to be held by the Treasurer called (1) the “2019A Special Tax Redevelopment Acquisition Fund” (hereinafter called the “Acquisition Fund”); and (2) the “2019A Special Tax Redevelopment Bond Fund” (hereinafter called the “Bond Fund”), which funds shall be held by the Treasurer separately and apart from all other funds and moneys under its control. There are hereby created and established in the Bond Fund the following special trust accounts: (i) the Bond Interest Account and (ii) the Bond Principal Account. So long as any of the Series 2019A Bonds herein authorized, or any .interest therein, remain unpaid, the moneys in the foregoing funds and accounts shall be used for no purpose other than those required or permitted by the this Ordinance, any supplemental ordinance providing for the issuance of Refunding Bonds and the Act. Section 5.2. Acquisition Fund. The proceeds from the sale of the Series 2019 A Bonds shall be placed in the Acquisition Fund. The moneys transferred to and placed in the Acquisition Fund shall remain therein until used by the City for the purpose of reimbursing the City for any costs incurred by the City, for property acquisition, demolition, remediation and relocation, as well as any costs required to remediate or prepare property for development as identified in and pursuant to the Redevelopment Plan and other costs related thereto, and specifically including in such costs the cost of any lawful purpose in connection with the Kiewit Project and any costs of construction and installation with respect to the Kiewit Project incurred by the City. If any sums remain in the Acquisition Fund after the full accomplishment of the objects and purposes for which the Series 2019A Bonds were issued, the sums remaining shall be transferred to the Bond Fund and applied as are other moneys in such Fund. Section 5.3. Special Tax Revenues. As provided in the Redevelopment Plan, pursuant to Section 18-2107(11) of the Act, the City, in its capacity as an authority under the Act, is empowered annually to certify to the Council the amount of special tax to be levied for community redevelopment purposes. In such capacity, the City shall annually certify to the Council an amount of special taxes equal to the principal of and interest on the Series 2019A Bonds and the Parity Bonds due in the Fiscal Year next succeeding the date of the certification, provided that such amount so certified shall not, in combination with any other such special tax certifications, exceed 2.6 cents on each $100 of taxable valuation. The City has covenanted in Section 6.5 of this Ordinance to comply with the requirements of the Act pertaining to the annual certification to the Council of the community redevelopment tax levy amount required to satisfy the debt service requirements of the Series 2019A Bonds and the Parity Bonds. The Council is required by the Act to levy and collect the taxes so certified at the same time and in the same manner as other city taxes are levied and collected. The Special Tax Revenues are hereby pledged in their entirety to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Series 2019 A Bonds as in this Ordinance provided, on a parity with the Parity Bonds, and until all of the Series 2019A Bonds and all interest thereon have been paid (or until moneys for that purpose have been irrevocably set aside), the Special Tax Revenues, when due and as collected, shall be deposited in the Bond Fund relating to the Series 2019A Bonds and the bond fund relating to any series of Parity Bonds, and shall be applied solely to the payment of the Series 2019A Bonds and the Parity Bonds, as applicable, and the interest thereon as in this Ordinance provided and in the ordinances authorizing the issuance of the Parity Bonds. Such allocation and pledge are for the exclusive benefit of the holders of the Series 2019A Bonds herein authorized and the Parity Bonds, and shall be irrevocable. Section 5.4. Bond Fund. The Special Tax Revenues accumulated in the Bond Fund shall be used in the following priority; provided, however, that, to the extent credits have been made in any of the accounts referred to below from the proceeds of the sale of the Series 2019 A Bonds or otherwise, the credits below need not be made: (a) Bond Interest Account. Credits shall be made into the Bond Interest Account so that the balance in said account on or before the date of the payment of any installment of interest on the Series 2019A Bonds shall be equal to the amount due at such installment. Moneys in the Bond Interest Account shall be used for the payment of interest on the Series 2019A Bonds as the same become due, and, after such payment, the account shall be restored by further deposits to the required balance. (b) Bond Principal Account. After the credits have been made pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, credits shall next be made into the Bond Principal Account so that the balance in said Account shall equal the next principal payment or payments, as the case may be, on or before the date of payment thereof on the then Outstanding Series 2019A Bonds. Moneys in the Bond Principal Account shall be used for the payment of the principal of the Series 2019A Bonds, as the same become due, and, after such payment, the account shall be restored by further credits to the required balance. Section 5.5. Investment of Moneys in Funds and Accounts; Moneys Held in Trust. Money in the Acquisition Fund, the Bond Interest Account and the Bond Principal Account in the Bond Fund shall, to the fullest extent practicable and reasonable, be invested and reinvested by the City, to the extent allowed by law solely in, and obligations deposited in such funds and accounts shall be, Government Obligations which shall mature or be subject to redemption at the option of the holder thereof on or before the respective dates when the moneys in such funds and accounts will be required for the purposes intended. Government Obligations purchased as an investment of moneys in any of the funds or accounts shall be deemed at all times to be a part of such fund or account, and the interest accruing thereon and any gain realized from such investment shall be credited to such fund or account, and any loss resulting from any such authorized investment shall be charged to such fund or account without liability to the City or the officials thereof; provided, however, that any investment earnings on moneys or Government Obligations held in any of the accounts in the Bond Fund shall be used to make up any deficiency in another account in the Bond Fund. The City shall sell at the best price obtainable or present for redemption any obligation so purchased whenever it shall be necessary to do so in order to provide moneys to meet any payment or transfer from a fund or account as required by this Ordinance. Until used and applied in accordance with this Ordinance, all moneys held in the Bond Fund, the Acquisition Fund, and the securities in which such moneys may from time to time be invested, shall be held in trust for the equal and ratable benefit and security of the holders of the Series 2019A Bonds then Outstanding. All moneys held by any paying agent for the payment of principal and interest of said Series 2019 A Bonds shall be held by such agent in trust for the equal and ratable benefit and security of the Series 2019A Bonds for which moneys have been so set aside. ARTICLE VI COVENANTS OF THE CITY As long as the Series 2019A Bonds are Outstanding and unpaid, the City will (through its proper officers, agents or employees) faithfully perform and abide by all the covenants, undertakings and provisions contained in this Ordinance or in the Series 2019 A Bonds issued hereunder, including the following covenants and agreements for the benefit of the Series 2019A Bondholders which are necessary, convenient and desirable to secure the Series 2019A Bonds; provided, however, that said covenants do not require the City to expend any funds other than the Special Tax Revenues or violate the provisions of State law with respect to tax revenue sharing. Section 6.1. Complete Kiewit Project; Management and Operation of Properties. The City covenants that it has completed or will complete its portion of the Kiewit Project in accordance with the Act and the Redevelopment Agreement, and that it will cause all properties owned by it and comprising any part of the Kiewit Project to be managed and operated in a sound and businesslike manner.

Nothing in this Ordinance shall prevent the City from issuing and selling bonds or other obligations which have, or purport to have, any lien upon the Special Tax Revenues which is on a parity with the Series 2019A Bonds herein authorized, provided that the Special Tax Revenues available for debt service for the fiscal year immediately preceding the date the lien of the Special Tax Revenues attaches with respect to such bonds or other obligations is at least 125% of the maximum annual debt service with respect to the Series 2019A Bonds, such bonds or other obligations and all other parity indebtedness to be outstanding immediately after the date such lien attaches. Section 6.4. Community Development Agency. The City covenants and agrees that it has created a community development agency by authority of Section 18-2 101.01 of the Act and ratifies and confirms actions heretofore taken to establish, and does hereby designate and establish, the Planning Department of the City to be and to continue as said community development agency of the City.

The actual amounts annually to be so certified in respect of the scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Series 2019A Bonds shall be set forth in the Final Terms Certificate at the time of the sale of the Series 2019A Bonds. The City may certify a lesser amount than the amount specified in the Final Terms Certificate for any particular fiscal year, but only if and to the extent (a) the City then has available on deposit in the Bond Fund an amount equal to the amount of the proposed reduction or (b) the amount of the proposed reduction equals the debt service requirement for such fiscal year of Series 2019A Bonds which no longer are Outstanding. The Finance Director shall notify the Council in writing of the proposed reduction and of the justification for such proposed reduction. Section 6.6. To Pay Principal of and Interest on Series 2019A Bonds. The City will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid solely from the Special Tax Revenues and the other moneys which are pledged herein to the payment thereof, the principal of and interest on the Series 2019A Bonds on the dates and at the places in the manner provided in such Series 2019A Bonds, according to the true intent and meaning thereof, and will faithfully do and perform and fully observe and keep any and all covenants, undertakings, stipulations and provisions contained in the Series 2019A Bonds and in this Ordinance.

Section 6.8. Eminent Domain Proceeds. The City covenants and agrees that if all or any part of the Kiewit Project should be taken by eminent domain proceedings or other proceedings authorized by law for any public or other use under which the property will be exempt from ad valorem taxation, the net proceeds realized by the City therefrom (if any) will be deposited in the Bond Fund and used and applied for the purpose of paying principal of and interest on Series 2019A Bonds as in this Ordinance provided. Section 6.9. Protection of Security. The City is duly authorized under all applicable laws to create and issue the Series 2019A Bonds and to adopt this Ordinance and to pledge the Special Tax Revenues and other moneys, securities and funds under this Ordinance in the manner and to the extent provided in this Ordinance. The Special Tax Revenues and other moneys, securities and funds so pledged are and will be free and clear of any pledge, lien, charge, security interest or encumbrance thereon or with respect thereto prior to, or of equal rank (except the Parity Bonds) with, the pledge created by this Ordinance, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, and all corporate action on the part of the City to that end has been duly and validly taken. The Series 2019A Bonds and the provisions of this Ordinance are and will be valid obligations of the City in accordance with their terms and the terms of this Ordinance.

Section 6.10. Extension of Payment of Series 2019A Bonds. The City will not directly or indirectly extend or assent to the extension of the maturity of any of the Series 2019A Bonds or the time of payment of any interest thereon by the purchase or funding of such Series 2019 A Bonds or claims for interest or by any other arrangement, and, in case the maturity of any of the Series 2019A Bonds or the time for payment of any interest thereon or claims for interest shall be extended, such Series 2019 A Bonds, interest or claims for interest shall not be entitled in case of any default under this Ordinance to the benefit of this Ordinance or to any payment or any assets of the City or the funds held by the Treasurer hereunder, except subject to the prior payment of the principal of all Series 2019A Bonds issued and outstanding the maturity of which has not been extended and of such portion of the accrued interest on the Series 2019A Bonds as shall not be represented by such extended interest or claims for interest. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the right of the City to issue Refunding Bonds as provided in this Ordinance, and such issuance shall not be deemed to constitute an extension of maturity of Series 2019A Bonds. Section 6.11. Continuing Disclosure. The City (a) authorizes and directs the Mayor, or in the Mayor’s absence, the Finance Director to execute and deliver, on the date of the issuance of the Series 2019A Bonds, a Continuing Disclosure Certificate (the “Disclosure Certificate”) in such form that satisfies the requirements of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Rule”) and is acceptable to Davidson and (b) covenants that it will comply with and carry out all of the provisions of the Disclosure Certificate. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Ordinance, failure of the City to comply with the Disclosure Certificate will not be considered a default under this Ordinance or the Series 2019A Bonds; however, any Series 2019A Bondholder or Beneficial Owner may take such actions as may be necessary and appropriate, including seeking mandate or specific performance by court order, to cause the City to comply with its obligations under this Section and the Disclosure Certificate. Section 6.12. Tax Covenants. The City shall not use the proceeds of the Tax-Exempt Bonds in a manner that would cause the Tax-Exempt Bonds to be “arbitrage bonds” under Section 148 of the Code. To that end, the City shall comply throughout the term of the Tax-Exempt Bonds with the requirements of said Section 148 of the Code and the applicable regulations of the Internal Revenue Service adopted thereunder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be a covenant with the purchasers from time to time of the Tax-Exempt Bonds. In addition, the City covenants to comply throughout the term of the Tax-Exempt Bonds with the following requirements: (a) Gross proceeds of the Tax-Exempt Bonds will not be used in a manner which will cause the Tax-Exempt Bonds to be considered “private activity bonds” within the meaning of the Code. (b) Except as provided in subparagraph (c) below, no gross proceeds of the Tax-Exempt Bonds are reasonably expected to be used (or will be used other than inadvertently), directly or indirectly, to acquire higher yielding investments or to replace funds which were used, directly or indirectly, to acquire higher yielding investments. (“Higher yielding investments” means any investment property which can reasonably be expected to produce a yield in excess of the yield on the Tax-Exempt Bonds.) Records of all investments shall be maintained by the City until six years after the retirement of the last of the Tax-Exempt Bonds. (c) The investment earnings on any bona fide debt service fund for the Tax- Exempt Bonds will be invested without regard to the yield limitations described in subparagraph (b) above.

(d) The Tax-Exempt Bonds shall not become directly or indirectly federally guaranteed. The Tax-Exempt Bonds will be considered to be “federally guaranteed” if the payment of principal or interest with respect to such Tax-Exempt Bonds is guaranteed (in whole or in part) by the United States (or any agency or instrumentality thereof) or 5% or more of the proceeds of the Tax-Exempt Bonds are used in making loans, the payment of principal or interest with respect to which is guaranteed or invested (directly or indirectly) in federally insured deposits or accounts. (e) All nonrefunding proceeds of the Tax-Exempt Bonds (other than amounts invested in the Rebate Account (defined below) and any debt service fund for the Tax-Exempt Bonds) shall be expended within the shorter of three years after the date of issue of the Tax-Exempt Bonds or the temporary period provided by the Code. (f) The City shall establish a trust account (the “Rebate Account”) pursuant to this Ordinance for the purpose of accepting deposits of rebate amounts which may occur by operation of the limitations described in subparagraphs (b) and (c) above. The City shall provide not later than 45 days after the fifth Bond Year and every five years thereafter for payment to the United States of 90% of the amounts deposited to the Rebate Account and 100% of the investment earnings on said deposits. Not later than 60 days after the final retirement of the Tax-Exempt Bonds, the City shall pay 100% of the remaining balance of the Rebate Account to the United States. Each payment shall be filed with the Internal Revenue Service Center, Ogden, Utah 84201. Each payment shall be accompanied by a copy of Form 8038-T and a statement summarizing the determination of the amounts paid and to be paid to the United States ARTICLE VII AMENDING AND SUPPLEMENTING OF ORDINANCE Section 7.1.

ARTICLE IX DEFEASANCE; MONEYS HELD FOR PAYMENT OF DEFEASED 2019 BONDS Section 9.1. Discharge of Liens and Pledges; Series 2019A Bonds Deemed To Be No Longer Outstanding Hereunder. If the City shall pay or cause to be paid to the owners of the Series 2019A Bonds the principal and interest to become due thereon at the time and in the manner stipulated therein, and if the City shall keep, perform and observe all and singular the covenants and promises in the Series 2019A Bonds and in this Ordinance expressed as to be kept, performed and observed by it or on its part, then these presents and the estate and rights hereby granted shall cease, determine and be void, and thereupon the lien of this Ordinance shall be cancelled and discharged without further action by the City and the Finance Director may apply any balances in any fund or account established hereunder, other than moneys held for the redemption or payment of the Series 2019A Bonds, to any lawful purpose of the City as the Council shall determine. It is specifically understood and agreed that the release of the lien of this Ordinance shall not affect nor cancel the provisions of this Ordinance relating to the Series 2019A Bonds issued or the rights of the owners of the Series 2019A Bonds or the City, which provisions shall continue in full force and effect according to their terms. The City may at any time surrender to the Registrar for cancellation by it any Series 2019A Bonds previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the City may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and such Series 2019A Bonds, upon surrender and cancellation, shall be deemed to be paid and retired. For the purpose of this Ordinance, any Series 2019A Bond issued hereunder shall be deemed to be fully discharged and satisfied and no longer Outstanding when: (a) a Series 2019A Bond is cancelled whether by reason of payment or redemption prior to maturity; (b) a Series 2019A Bond is surrendered to the Registrar for cancellation; ( c) a Series 2019 A Bond for which the payment of the principal of and all interest accrued and to accrue through the due date of payment (regardless of whether such due date arises by reason of maturity, upon redemption or by declaration as provided herein) has been made; such payment will be deemed to have been made when there have been deposited with an appropriate fiduciary institution acting as escrow agent sufficient moneys to make such payment or Government Obligations maturing, as to principal and interest, in such amount and at such times as will insure the availability of sufficient moneys to make any such payment and all necessary and proper fees, compensation and expenses of the escrow agent pertaining to such Series 2019 A Bond with respect to which such deposit is made have either been paid or payment provided for to the satisfaction of the escrow agent; provided, however, no deposit of cash or Government Obligations shall constitute discharge and satisfaction as to any Series 2019A Bond to be redeemed prior to their maturity unless: (i) such Series 2019A Bond has been irrevocably called or designated for redemption on the first date thereafter on which such Series 2019A Bond may be redeemed in accordance with the provisions of Article IV of this Ordinance; and (ii) proper notice of the redemption of such Series 2019A Bond has been mailed as required by Article IV hereof, or irrevocable provision shall have been made for the mailing of such notice; and (d) a Series 2019A Bond is mutilated, destroyed or lost and, subsequently, a new Series 201 9 A Bond is issued as provided under Section 3. 7 of this Ordinance At such time as a Series 2019 A Bond shall no longer be deemed to be Outstanding hereunder, as provided in this Section, such Series 2019A Bond shall no longer be secured by or entitled to the benefits of this Ordinance except for the purpose of payment from the cash or Government Obligations deposited with and held by the escrow agent for such purpose. Moneys deposited with the escrow agent under this Section and the proceeds of any Government Obligations held under this Section may be invested and reinvested in Government Obligations which mature in the amounts and at the times required to comply with the provisions of this Section. Any income from such investments in excess of the requirements for principal of and interest on any Series 2019 A Bond not being Outstanding under the provisions of this Section shall be paid to the City. If cash or Government Obligations shall have been deposited with the escrow agent in accordance with this Section, in trust for the purpose and sufficient and available to pay the principal of any Series 2019A Bond, together with all interest due thereon to the due date thereof or to the date fixed for the redemption thereof, all liability of the City for such payments shall terminate and be discharged, whether or not such Series 2019A Bond shall be presented for payment on the due date, whether at maturity or upon redemption or by declaration, and the escrow agent shall hold such moneys or Government Obligations without liability to the owner of such Series 2019A Bond for interest thereon, in trust for the benefit of the owner of such Series 2019 A Bond, who thereafter shall be restricted exclusively to such moneys or Government Obligations for any claim for such payment of whatsoever nature on his or her part, except as is provided in Section 9.2 hereof. Section 9.2. Unclaimed Moneys. In the event any Series 20 19 A Bonds shall not be presented for payment when the principal thereof becomes due, if funds sufficient to pay such Series 2019A Bonds shall have been made available to the escrow agent for the benefit of the owners thereof, all liability of the City to the Series 2019 A Bondholders for the payment of such Series 2019A Bonds and the interest thereon shall forthwith cease, determine and be completely discharged and thereupon it shall be the duty of the escrow agent to hold such fund or funds, without liability for interest thereon, for a period of six years after the Series 2019A Bonds shall have matured, for the benefit of the owners of such Series 2019A Bonds, who shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any claim of whatever nature on their part under this Ordinance or with respect to the Series 2019A Bonds. At the expiration of such period, any unclaimed principal or interest shall be paid to the City and thereafter all claimants shall be restricted exclusively to making claim against the City for such principal or interest. The City shall have no liability for interest on any such funds paid to it and shall not be required to hold such funds in trust nor to, in any manner, segregate such funds on its books. ARTICLEX ENFORCEMENT OF ORDINANCE So long as any of the Series 2019A Bonds are Outstanding, each of the obligations, duties, limitations and restraints imposed upon the City by this Ordinance shall be deemed to be a covenant between the City and every holder of the Series 2019 A Bonds, and this Ordinance and every provision and covenant hereof, the Act and the Charter shall constitute a contract of the City with every holder from time to time of the Series 2019A Bonds. Any holder of a Series 2019A Bond may, by mandamus or other appropriate suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction, enforce and compel performance of this Ordinance and every provision and covenant hereof, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the enforcement of the performance of all duties required of the City by this Ordinance, by the Charter and by the Act and any other applicable laws of the State of Nebraska.

Section 11.4. Partial Invalidity. If any one or more of the covenants or agreements or portions thereof provided in this Ordinance on the part of the City to be performed should be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, then such covenant or covenants, or such agreement or agreements, or such portions thereof, shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants and agreements or portions thereof provided in this Ordinance, and the invalidity thereof shall in no way affect the validity of the other provisions of this Ordinance or of the Series 2019A Bonds, but the holders of the Series 2019A Bonds shall retain all the rights and benefits accorded to them hereunder and under any applicable provisions of law. If any provisions of this Ordinance shall be held or deemed to be or shall, in fact, be inoperative or unenforceable or invalid as applied in any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions or in all jurisdictions, or in all cases because it conflicts with any constitution or statute or rule of public policy, or for any other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering the provision in question inoperative or unenforceable or invalid in any other case or circumstance, or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained inoperative or unenforceable or invalid to any extent whatever. Section 11.5. Law and Place of Enforcement of This Ordinance. This Ordinance shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Nebraska. All suits and actions arising out of this Ordinance shall be instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Nebraska, except to the extent necessary for enforcement, by any trustee or receiver appointed by or pursuant to the provisions of this Ordinance, of remedies under this Ordinance.
