e
e
(B) The Issuer has previously issued the Refunded Bonds, of
which $5,035,000 principal amount is outstanding and unpaid as of
May 1, 1985.
(C) The Issuer deems it necessary, beneficial and in its
best interest to provide for the refunding of the Refunded Bonds.
Certain covenants in the resolution and indenture of trust secur-
ing the Refunding Bonds are restrictive to the extent that failure
to carryout the refunding program authorized herein will lead to
confusion and increased costs for the Issuer. The refunding pro-
gram herein described will be advantageous to the Issuer by (1)
effecting an overall reduction in debt service applicable to
bonded indebtedness issued to finance the System, and (2) revising
certain terms and covenants previously made for the benefit of the
holders of the Refunded Bonds and restructuring of debt to the
advantage of the Issuer.
(D) The estimated sum required for such refunding program is
the sum of not exceeding $5,615,000 which will be derived from the
proceeds of the sale of the Series 1985 Bonds, together with
certain other funds available to the Issuer more fully described
herein.
(E) A portion of the proceeds of the Bonds and other funds
available for such purpose, shall be deposited pursuant to the
Agreement, in suff icient amounts to make timely payments of all
presently outstanding principal, interest and redemption premiums,
if any, in respect to the Refunded Bonds, as the same become due
or are redeemed prior to maturity as hereinafter provided. Such
funds shall be invested pursuant to the Agreement in such invest-
ments as will produce escrow deposit income sufficient to make
timely payments of all principal of, redemption premiums and
interest on the Refunded Bonds.
(F) The principal of and interest on the Bonds and all
required reserve and other payments shall be payable solely from
the Net Revenues as provided herein. The Issuer shall never be
required to levy ad valorem taxes on any real or personal property
therein to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds herein
authorized or to make any other payments provided for herein. The
Bonds shall not constitute a lien upon any properties owned by or
located within the boundaries of the Issuer.
(G) The Net Revenues are estimated to be sufficient to pay
all principal of and interest on the Bonds to be issued hereunder,
as the same become due, and to make all required payments required
by this Resolution, including payments required to be made to the
Debt Service Fund.

upon and pledge of the Net Revenues, as defined in the Resolution,
derived and collected by the City from the operation of the City's
water and sewer system (the "System"), in the manner provided in
the Resolution.
This Bond does not constitute an indebtedness of the City

provision or limitation, and it is expressly agreed by the Owner
of this Bond that such Owner shall never have the right to require
or compel the exerc ise of the ad valorem tax ing power of the City

ment of the principal of and interest on this Bond or the making
of any Debt Serv ice Fund, reserve or other payments prov ided for

into the Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A with a bank with trust powers or trust company approved
by the Issuer, which shall provide for the deposits of sums and
for the investment of moneys in appropriate Federal Securities so
as to produce sufficient funds to make all the payments described
in the Agreement. At the time of execution of the Agreement, the
Issuer shall furnish to the Escrow Holder named therein appropri-
ate documentation to demonstrate that the sums being deposited and
the investments to be made and investment income therein will be
sufficient for such purposes.
A sum specified in the Agreement which together with the

quent resolution of the Issuer, whichever is earlier, shall be

poses set forth herein and in the Agreement.

SECTION 17. SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF ISSUER. The Bonds shall
not be or constitute general obligations or indebtedness of the
Issuer as "bonds" within the meaning of the Constitution of
16
e
e
Florida, but shall be payable solely from and secured by a lien
upon and a pledge of the Net Revenues as herein provided. No
Owner or Owners of any Bonds issued hereunder shall ever have the
right to compel the exercise of the ad valorem taxing power of the
Issuer or taxation in any form of any real or personal property
therein to pay such principal and interest from any other funds
of the Issuer except from the special funds in the manner provided
herein.
The payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds
shall be secured forthwith equally and ratably by an irrevocable
lien on the Net Revenues from the operation of the System, and the
Issuer does irrevocably pledge such Net Revenues to the payment of
the principal of and interest on the Bonds, for the reserves
therefor and for all other required payments.
SECTION 18. COVENANTS OF THE ISSUER. For as long as any of
the principal of and interest on any of the Bonds shall be Out-
standing and unpaid or until there shall have been set apart in
the Debt Service Fund, herein established, and in the Reserve
Account, herein established, a sum sufficient to pay when due the
entire principal or the Bonds remaining unpaid, together wi th
interest accrued and to accrue thereon, the Issuer covenants wi th
the Owners of any and all Bonds as follows:
A. REVENUE FUND. The entire Gross Revenues derived from the
operation of the System shall upon receipt thereof be deposited in
the "City of winter Springs water and Sewer Revenue Fund" (herein-
after called the "Revenue Fund"), hereby created and established.
Such Revenue Fund shall constitute a trust fund for the purposes
herein provided and shall be used only for the purposes and in the
manner herein provided.
B. DISPOSITION OF REVENUES. All revenues at any time re-
maining on deposit in the Revenue Fund after payment of Cost of
Operation and Maintenance shall be disposed of on or before the
fifteenth day of each month commencing in the month immediately
following delivery of the Bonds only in the following manner and
in the following order of priority:
( 1 ) From the moneys remaining in the Revenue Fund, the
Issuer shall next deposit into a separate fund which is hereby
created and designated "City of winter Springs Water and Sewer
Debt Service Fund" (herein called the "Debt Service Fund"),
and credit to the following accounts, each on a parity with each
other, the following identified sums:
(a) Interest Account: One-sixth (1/6) of all interest
becoming due on the Bonds on the next semi-annual interest payment
date, together with any fees or charges of the Paying Agent there-
for. The moneys in the Interest Account shall be withdrawn and
17
e
--
deposi ted with the paying Agent for the Bond s on or before each
interest payment date in an amount sufficient to pay the interest
due on such date and the fees and charges of the paying Agent.
Such monthly payments shall be increased or decreased proportion-
ately prior to the first interest payment date or dates, after
making allowance for any deposits made into the Interest Account
upon the issuance of the Bonds.
(b) Principal Account: Beg inning on the first day of
the month which is twelve (12) months prior to the first principal
maturi ty date and monthly thereafter, a sum equal to one twelfth
( 1/12) of the amount wh ich will be suff ic ient, together wi th the
funds then on deposit therein, to pay the principal (except the
principal of which is required to be paid on the Term Bonds from
the Redemption Account hereinafter created and established) on the
Serial Bonds on the next principal maturity date. Such payments
shall be increased proportionately prior to the first principal
payment date of the Bonds to make up any deficiency in the Princi-
pal Account. The moneys on deposit in the Principal Account shall
be withdrawn and deposited with the Paying Agent for such Bonds on
or before each principal maturity date in an amount sufficient to
pay the principal maturing on such date and the fees and charges
of the paying Agent.
(c) Redemption Account: An amount sufficient to pay
any Amortization Installment established by any subsequent resolu-
tion of the Issuer.
(2) From the moneys on deposit in the Revenue Fund the
Issuer shall next deposit into a special account in the Debt
Service Fund hereby created and designated the IlReserve Accountll,
a monthly sum of not less than one-sixtieth (1/60) of the Reserve
Requirement. No further deposits shall be required to be made
into the Reserve Account whenever the full Reserve Requirement
shall be on deposit therein.
Any withdrawals from the Reserve Account shall be sub-
sequently restored from the first moneys available in the Revenue
Fund after all required payments from the Revenue Fund (including
all deficiencies in prior required payments therefrom) have been
made in full.
Moneys in the Reserve Account shall be used only for the
purpose of paying Bond Service Requirement on the Bonds when the
other moneys in the Debt Service Fund are insufficient therefor,
and for no other purpose. Whenever the amount on deposi t in the
Reserve Account exceeds the then current Reserve Requirement, the
excess shall be wi thdrawn from the Reserve Account and deposited
in any account in the Debt Service Fund.
(3) Upon the issuance of any Additional parity Obliga-
tions under the terms, limitations and conditions as are herein
18
e
e
"
provided, the payments into the several accounts in the Debt Ser-
v ice Fund, incl ud ing, if Term Bond s are issued, the Redemption
Account, shall be increased in such amounts as shall be necessary
to make the payment for the principal of, interest on and reserves
for such Additional Parity Obligations on the same basis as here-
inabove prov ided wi th respect to the Bond s initially issued under
this Resolution.
(4) The Issuer shall next apply and deposit monthly
from the moneys remaining on deposit in the Revenue Fund into a
special account to be known as the "City of winter Springs Water
and Sewer Renewal and Replacement Fund" (hereinafter called the
"Renewal and Replacement Fund"), which fund is hereby created and
established, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of five
percent (5%) of the Gross Revenues received during the immediately
preceding Fiscal Year, such deposit to be continued to be made for
the purpose of this account; prov ided that no deposit shall be
required to be made so long as there is an amount on deposit in
the Renewal and Replacement Fund in the amount of 5% of the Gross
Revenues received during the immediately preceeding Fiscal Year.
The moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund shall be used only
for the purpose of paying the cost of extensions, enlargements or
add i tions to, or the replacement of capi tal assets of the System
and emergency repairs thereto. Such moneys on deposit in such
account shall also be used to supplement the Reserve Account in
the Debt Service Fund, if necessary, in order to prevent a default
in the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds.
(5) The balance of any moneys remaining in the Revenue
Fund after the above requi red payments have been made may be used
for any lawful purpose; provided, however, that none of said money
shall be used for any purposes other than those hereinabove speci-
fied unless all current payments, including any deficiencies for
prior payments, have been made in full and unless the Issuer shall
have compl ied fully wi th all the covenants and prov isions of this
Resolution.
(6) The Debt Service Fund (including the Reserve
Account and all accounts therein), the Renewal and Replacement
Fund, the Revenue Fund, the Acquis i tion and Improvement Fund and
any other special funds herein established and created shall con-
stitute trust funds for the purposes provided herein for such
funds. The money in all such funds shall be continuously secured
in the same manner as municipal deposits are authorized to be
secured by the laws of the State of Florida.
Moneys on deposit in the Revenue Fund and the Debt Service
Fund may be invested and reinvested in Investment Securities (or
as otherwise prov ided) which mature not later than the dates on
which the moneys on deposit therein will be needed for the purpose
of such fund. The moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund may
19
e
e
be invested up to five (5) years. Moneys in the Reserve Account
may be invested and reinvested in Investment Securities maturing
not later than the last maturity of the Series 1985 Bonds or
Additional Parity Obligations, if issued. All income on such
investments shall be deposited in the respective funds and
accounts from which such investments were made and be used for the
purposes thereof unless and until the maximum required amount is
on deposit therein, and thereafter shall be deposited in the
Revenue Fund.
(7) In determining the amount of any of the payments
required to be made pursuant to this Section 18, credit shall be
given for all investment income accruing to the respective funds
and accounts described herein, except as otherwise provided.
(8) The cash required to be accounted for in each of
the funds and accounts described in this section may be deposited
in a single bank account, provided that adequate accounting
records are maintained to reflect and control the restricted allo-
cation of the cash on deposit therein for the various purposes of
such funds and accounts as herein provided. The designation and
establishment of the various funds in and by this Resolution shall
not be construed to require the establishment of any completely
independent, self-balancing funds as such term is commonly defined
and used in governmental accounting or to hinder or prevent the
Issuer from maintaining its records and accounts in the manner set
forth by the National Council on Governmental Accounting in the
publication titled "Governmental Accounting Auditing and Financial
Reporting", but rather is intended solely to constitute an ear-
marking of certain revenues and assets of the System for certain
purposes and to establish certain priori ties for application of
such revenues and assets as herein provided. The Issuer may main-
tain separate accounts for the System within the funds and
accounts described herein.
C. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE. The Issuer will maintain the
System and all parts thereof in good condition and will operate
the same in an efficient and economical manner, making such expen-
ditures for equipment and for renewals, repairs and replacements
as may be proper for the economical operation and maintenance
thereof.
D. RATE COVENANT. The Issuer will fix, establish, revise
from time to time whenever necessary, maintain and collect all
such fees, rates, rentals and other charges for the use of the
products, services and facilities of the System which will always
provide revenues in each year sufficient to pay all the Cost of
Operation and Maintenance of the System as the same shall become
due plus one hundred twenty-five per centum (125%) of the Bond
Service Requirement becoming due in such Bond Year upon the Bonds
and any other obligations intended to be paid from such Net
20
,
, ,
,
e
e
"
Revenues after excluding from such Bond Service Requirement pay-
ments to be derived for that purpose from other sources. Such
rates, fees, rental s or other charges shall not be red uced so as
to be insufficient to provide revenues for such purposes. In the
event the audit referred to in 18E hereof shows that the Issuer is
not in compliance with the rate covenant set forth in 180, within
thirty (30) days after such audit, the Consul ting Eng ineer will
recommend suggested fees, rates, rentals and other charges for the
use of the products, services and facilities of the System suffi-
cient to meet the requirements of this Section 180. The Issuer
hereby covenants and agrees to immediately adjust (to the extent
permi tted by law), such rates, fees and other charges to comply
with the requirements of this Section 180.
E. BOOKS AND ACCOUNTS: AUDIT. The Issuer shall keep proper
books, records and accounts, separate and apart from all other
records and accounts, showing correct and complete entries of all
transactions of the System. The Owners of any of the Bonds or any
duly authorized agent or agents of such Owners shall have the
right at any and all reasonable times to inspect such books,
records and accounts. The Issuer shall within one hundred twenty
(120) days following the close of each Fiscal Year cause an audit
of such books, records and accounts to be made by an independent
firm of certified public accountants. Each such audit, in addi-
tion to whatever matters may be deemed proper by said firm of
certified publ ic accountants to be included therein, shall, wi th-
out limiting the generality of the foregoing, include the
following:
(1) A statement in reasonable detail of the income and
expenditures of the System for such Fiscal Year;
(2) Comments regard ing any non-compl iance by the City
in carrying out the accounting requirements of this Resolution.
Copies of each such audit report shall be placed on file with
the Issuer and be made available at reasonable times for inspec-
tion by Owners of Bonds, and shall be sent to the nationally
recognized bond rating agencies and to the initial purchasers of
the Bond s .
F. MORTGAGE OR SALE OF SYSTEM. The Issuer shall not sell,
lease, encumber or in any manner dispose of the System as a whole
until all of the Bonds or any subsequently issued pari ty bonds
shall have been paid in full as to both principal and interest,
provided, however, that this provision and nothing in this Resolu-
tion, particularly Paragraph G immed iately below, shall prohibit
the sale, lease or transfer of the System or any part of the
System to another unit of local government established by law for
the purpose of owning and operating water and sewer facilities.
21
..
,
.
e
e
G. SALE OR DISPOSITION OF CERTAIN PARTS OF SYSTEM. The
Issuer may sell or dispose of, for fair market value, any proper-
ties or parts of the System which the Consulting Engineer shall
certify in writing are not necessary for the continuing operation
of the System, and that the sale or disposal of which will not
adversely affect the Revenues derived from the System to such an
extent that the Issuer will fail to comply with the covenants of
this Resolution.
The proceeds derived from any sale or disposal of any proper-
ties or parts of the System as provided for in the above para-
graph, in the discretion of the Issuer, be (1) deposited in the
Renewal and Replacement Fund and used exclusively for the purpose
of paying the cost of extensions, enlargements or additions to, or
the replacement of capital assets of the System and for any unu-
sual or extraordinary repairs, or for the construction or acquisi-
tion of additions, extensions and improvements to the System, or
(2) for the purchase or retirement of the Bonds, provided, howev-
er, that if the Consul ting Eng ineer certified that the proceeds
are necessary for the purpose stated in part (1) above, such
proceeds shall remain in the Renewal and Replacement Fund until
such certified requirements are satisfied and the proceeds shall
not be used for any other purpose allowed by this Resolution.
H. INSURANCE. The Issuer will maintain fire and windstorm
insurance on all buildings and structures of the works and proper-
ties of the System which are subject to loss through fire or wind-
storm, public liability insurance, and such other insurance as is
generally carried on similar property at least in such amounts as
are normally carried in the operation of a similar public utility
system wi thin the State of Florida. Any such insurance shall be
placed with a nationally recognized reputable insurer and shall be
carried for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds. In lieu of
carrying such insurance the Issuer may self-insure to the extent
customary wi th ut il i ties operating 1 ike properties. All moneys
received for losses under any such insurance, except public liabi-
1 i ty, are hereby pledged by the Ci ty as securi ty for the Bonds,
until and unless such proceeds are used to remedy the loss or
damage for which such proceeds are received, either by repairing
the property damage or replacing the property would be possible
from the date of the receipt of the proceeds of the insurance.
I. NO FREE SERVICE. So long as any Bond s are Outstand ing ,
the Issuer shall not furnish or supply the facilities, services
and commodities of the System free of charge to any person, firm
or corporation, public or private. The Issuer shall promptly
enforce the payment of any and all accounts owing to the Issuer
and delinquent, by discontinuing service or by filing suits,
actions or proceed ings, or by both discontinuance of service and
f i 1 i ng sui t .
22
. '
.'
e
e
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not be
required to impose any fees or charges for the collection, trans-
mission, treatment or disposal of storm water runoff or the supply
of water to fire service.
J. ENFORCEMENT OF COLLECTIONS. The Issuer will diligently
enforce and collect the rates, fees and other charges for the ser-
vices and facilities of the System herein pledged; will take all
steps, actions and proceedings for the enforcement and collection
of such rates, charges and fees as shall become delinquent to the
full extent permitted or authorized by law; and will maintain
accurate records with respect thereof. All such fees, rates,
charges and revenues herein pledged shall, as collected, be held
in trust to be applied as herein provided.
K. REMEDIES. Any Owner of Bonds issued under the provision
hereof or any trustee act ing for the Owners of such Bonds, may
either at law or in equity, by suit, action, mandamus or other
proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction, protect and
enforce any and all rights, including the right to the appointment
of a receiver, existing under the laws of the State of Florida, or
granted and contained herein, and may enforce and compel the per-
formance of all duties required herein or by any applicable stat-
utes to be performed by the Issuer or by any officer thereof.
Nothing herein, however, shall be construed to grant to any
Owner of the Bonds any lien on any property of the Issuer.
L. CONSULTING ENGINEERS. The Issuer shall employ qualified
Consulting Engineers in an advisory capacity to inspect the facil-
ities of the System and to make reports and recommendations with
respect thereto and concerning the operat ion, maintenance, re-
placements, property additions and improvements thereto as re-
quested by the Issuer. A copy of each report shall be available
and shall remain on file with the City Clerk for public inspec-
tion.
M. MANDATORY CONNECTIONS. The Issuer will, to the full
extent permitted by law, require all lands, buildings and struc-
tures within the Issuer's service area, fronting or abutting on
the lines of the System, or any part thereof, or which can use the
facilities of the System to connect with and use such facilities
within ninety (90) days after notification that service is avail-
able. The Issuer will not grant a franchise for the operation of
any competing utility system until all Bonds issued hereunder to-
gether with the interest thereon have been paid in full; provided
however, nothing in this Resolution shall effect the validity of
any franchises existing on the effective date of this Resolution
for the operation of any utility system within the City.
N. NO COMPETING SYSTEM. To the full extent permitted by
law, the Issuer will not grant, or cause, consent to or allow the
23
. ,
. .-
e
e
< .
granting of, any franchise or permit to any person, firm, corpora-
tion or body, or agency or instrumentality whatsoever, for the the
furnishing of water or sewer services which the Issuer determines
will adversely affect the revenues of the System; provided how-
ever, nothing in this Resolution shall effect the validity of any
franchise existing on the effective date of this resolution for
the operation of any utility system within the City.
O. ISSUANCE OF OTHER OBLIGATIONS. The Issuer will not issue
any other obligations payable from the Revenues of the System nor
voluntarily create or cause to be created any debt, lien pledge,
assignment, encumbrance or other charge having priority to or
be ing on a parity wi th the 1 ien of the Bond s issued pursuant to
this Resolution and the interest thereon, upon said Revenues ex-
cept under the conditions and in the manner provided herein. Any
obligations issued by the Issuer other than the Bonds herein au-
thorized and Additional Parity Obligations provided for in
Subsection P below, payable from such Revenues, shall contain an
express statement that such obligations are junior, inferior and
subordinate in all respects to the Bonds herein authorized, as to
lien on and source and security for payment from such Revenues.
P. ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL PARITY OBLIGATIONS. No Additional
parity Obligations, payable on a pari ty from the Net Revenues of
the System with the Bonds herein authorized, shall be issued after
the issuance of any Bonds herein authorized, except upon the con-
ditions and in the manner hereinafter provided:
(1) Any such obligations shall be issued solely for the
purpose of extending, enlarging, improving or adding to the facil-
i ties of the System and/or to refund any bonds issued for such
purposes.
(2) There shall have been obtained and filed wi th the
Issuer a certificate of an independent certified public accountant
of sui table experience and responsibil i ty stating: (a) that the
books and records of the City relative to the System have been

derived for the Fiscal Year preceding the date of issuance of the
proposed Additional Parity Obligations with respect to which such
certificate is made, adjusted as herein below provided; (c) that
the aggregate amount of such Net Revenues, as adj usted, from the
System, for such preced ing Fiscal Year is equal to not less than
one hundred twenty-five (125%) percent of the Maximum Bond Service
Requirement on (i) all obligations issued under this Resolution,
if any, then Outstanding, and (ii) on the Additional parity Obli-
gations with respect to which such certificate is made.
(3) Upon recommendation of the Consul ting Eng ineers,
historical Net Revenues of the System may be adjusted for purposes
of this Section by including 100% of the additional Net Revenues,
24
. ..
e
e
.
which in the opinion of the Consulting Engineer would have been
derived by the Issuer from rate increases adopted and in effect
before the Additional Parity Obligations are issued.
(4) The Issuer shall not be in default in the carrying
out of any of the obligations assumed under this Resolution, and
all payments required by this Resolution to be made into the funds
and accounts established hereunder shall have been made to the
full extent required.

Obligations.
(8) Upon the issuance of the Additional Parity Obliga-
tions, the Reserve Account shall contain therein the Reserve
Requirement.
Q. ARBITRAGE. No use will be made of the proceeds of the
Bonds which, if reasonably expected on the date of issuance of the
Bonds, would cause the same to be "arbitrage bonds" wi thin the
meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954. The Ci ty at all
times while the Bonds and interest thereon are outstanding will
comply with the requirements of Section 103(c) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954 and any valid and applicable rules and regu-
lations promulgated thereunder.

cation or amendment of this Resolution or of any resolution amend-
atory hereof or supplemental thereto, may be made without the con-
sent in writing of the Owners of two-thirds (2/3) or more in prin-
cipal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding; provided, however,
that no modification or amendment shall permit a change in the
maturity of such Bonds or a reduction in the rate of interest

SECTION 21. DEFEASANCE. If, at any time, the Issuer shall

deposit, principal and interest, received will be sufficient to
make timely payment of the principal, interest and redemption
premiums, if any, on the Outstanding Bonds, shall be considered
"provision for payment." Nothing herein shall be deemed to require
the Issuer to call any of the Outstanding Bonds for redemption
prior to maturity pursuant to any applicable optional redemption
provisions, or to impair the discretion of the Issuer in determin-
ing whether to exercise any such option for early redemption.
Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the defeasance of all
Outstanding Bonds at any time (i.e., the Issuer may elect to
defease one series of Bonds without defeasing all Outstanding
series of Bonds.
