FINDINGS.
It is hereby ascertained, determined
(A) The Issuer has previously issued the Refunded Bonds, of
which $3,460,000 principal amount is outstanding and unpaid as of
May 1, 1 985.
(B) Pursuant to author i ty contained in Section 166.231,
Florida Statutes, and other applicable provisions of law, the City
of Winter Springs did, under date of October 24, 1977, enact an
ordinance levying a tax (hereinafter called "Public Service Tax"),
on each and every sale of electricity, metered or bottled gas,
water, local telegraph and telephone service within the corporate
limits of the City, and it is deemed necessary and desirable to
pledge the proceeds of the Public Service Taxes to the payment of
the principal of and interest on the Bonds to be issued pursuant
to this Resolution. Such pledge shall be junior, inferior and

. .
(C) Pursuant to its charter and other applicable provisions
of law, the City of winter Springs did, under date of March 27,
1984, enact an ordinance by which the City granted to the Florida
Power Corporation, for a period of thirty years from April 1,
1984, a franchise to construct, maintain and operate electric
light and power facilities for the purpose of supplying elec-
trici ty to the City and its inhabitants. In consideration of the
granting of said franchise pursuant to said ordinance, said
Florida Power Corporation, its legal representatives, successors

Ci ty has the power to levy and collect, an amount which added to
the amount of all taxes, licenses and other impositions levied or
imposed by the City on the Corporation for the preceding tax year,
will equal six percent (6%) of the revenues of said Florida Power
Corporation from the sale of electric energy in the City (herein-
after referred to as "Franchise Fees"); that is deemed necessary
and desirable to pledge the proceeds of the Franchise Fees avail-
able for such purpose to the payment of the principal of and
interest on the Bonds to be issued pursuant to this Resolution.
Such pledge shall be junior, inferior and subordinate to the
pledge of the Prior Bonds.
(D) The Issuer deems it necessary, beneficial and in its
best interest to prov ide for the refund ing of the Refunded Bond s.
The refunding program herein described will be advantageous to the
Issuer by (1) effecting an overall reduction in debt service
applicable to bonded indebtedness of the Issuer, and (2) restruc-
turing of debt to the advantage of the Issuer. It is in the best
interest of the Issuer to carry out the refunding herein autho-
rized simul taneously wi th the refund ing of certain debt relating
to the water and sewer system of the Issuer in order to avoid
duplication of certain costs and expenses.
(E) The estimated sum required for such refunding program is
the sum of not exceeding $3,785,000 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.
(F) A portion of the proceeds of the Series 1985 Bonds and
other funds available for such purpose, shall be deposited pursu-
ant to the Agreement, in sufficient amounts to make timely pay-
ments of all presently outstanding principal, interest and redemp-
tion premiums, if any, in respect to the Refunded Bonds, as the
same become due or are redeemed prior to rnaturi ty as hereinafter
provided. Such funds shall be invested pursuant to the Agreement
in such investments as will produce escrow deposit income
sufficient to make timely payments of all principal of, redemption
premiums and interest on the Refunded Bonds.
(G) The principal of and interest on the Bonds and all
required reserve and other payments shall be payable solely from
6
. .
the Excise Taxes 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.
(H) The Excise Taxes 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, the principal of and interest on the Prior
Bonds and on any other obligations currently outstanding and pay-
able from such Excise Taxes

into the Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A with a bank with trust powers or trust company approved

ate documentation to demonstrate that the sums being deposited and
the investments to be made and investment income therein will be

poses set forth herein and in the Agreement.

sequently restored from the first Excise Taxes available after all

Moneys in the Reserve Account shall be used only for the
purpose of paying Bond Serv ice Requi rement on the Bond s when the
18

e
e
'" other moneys in the Debt Service Fund are insufficient therefor,
and for no other purpose. Whenever the amount on deposit 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
prov ided, the payments into the several accounts in the Debt Ser-
vice Fund, including, if Term Bonds 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 with respect to the Bonds ini tially issued under
this Resolution.

forth in paragraph (A) of this Section after the above required
payments have been made may be used for any lawful purpose;

all the covenants and provisions of this Resolution.

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

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
publ ication titled "Governmental Account ing Aud i ting and Financ ial
Reporting", but rather is intended solely to constitute an ear-
marking of certain revenues and assets for certain purposes and to
establish certain priorities for application of such funds and
assets and assets as here in prov ided . The Issuer may maintain
separate accounts within the funds and accounts described herein.
C. PUBLIC SERVICE TAXES. For so long as any of the Bond s
are outstanding and unpaid, or payment thereof has not been duly
provided for, it will not repeal the ordinance levying the Public
Service Tax, and will not amend or modify said ordinance in any
manner so as to impair or adversely affect the power and obliga-
tion of the City to levy and collect the Public Service Tax, or
impair or adversely affect in any manner the pledge of the Public
Service Tax made herein, or the rights of the holders of the
Bonds, or the rate or amount of the Public Service Tax. The City
does further covenant and agree that so long as any of the prin-
cipal of or interest on any of the Bonds shall be outstanding and
unpaid, or payment thereof not duly provided for, it will levy and
collect such Public Service Tax, to the extent necessary up to the
max imum rate prov ided by law, as will always, together wi th other
moneys available therefor, provide funds sufficient to pay, as the
same shall become due, the principal of and interest on the Bonds,
in addition to paying, as the same shall become due, all reserve
fund and other payments provided for in this Resolution and all
other obligations and indebtedness payable out of said Public
Service Tax.
The City further expressly represents that it has leg al and
val id power to continue the levy and collection of the Public
Service Tax until all the principal of and interest on the Bonds
have been fully paid, notwithstanding that the legislative author-
i ty therefor may be repealed, amended or modified by the Leg isla-
ture of Florida prior to such time; and said City further repre-
sents that the covenants entered into between the City and holders
of the Bonds pursuant to this subsection (A) constitute a val id

not subject to repeal, impairment or modification by the City or
the Legislature of the State of Florida.

reduce the rate or amount of Franchise Fees levied thereunder, or
impair or adversely affect the obligation of the Florida Power
Corporation, or of its legal representatives, successors or
assigns, to pay, or the power or obligation of the City to levy
and collect said Franchise Fees, or impair or adversely affect in
any manner the pledge of such Franchise Fees made herein, or the
rights of holders of Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution.
The City further expressly represents that it has legal and
val id power to levy and continue to levy and collect said Fran-
chise Fees in the manner provided in said ordinance, notwithstand-
ing that the leg islative authori ty contained in the Act may be
repealed, amended or modified by the Legislature of Florida prior
to such time; and said City further represents that the covenants
entered into between the City and the holders of the Bonds pursu-
ant to this subsection (B) constitute a valid and legally binding
contract between the City and such Bondholders and are not subject
to repeal, impairment or modification by the City or the Legisla-
ture of the State of Florida.

distribution facilities of the Florida Power Corporation, or in
the event it shall acquire, construct or operate an electric power
and distribution system and the Franchise Fees are not available
to the City to make the payments therefrom required pursuant to
the provisions of this Resolution, the City will make payment from
the net revenues first available to it from the operation of any
such electric power and distribution system so owned, acquired,
constructed or operated by it of the amounts required to be paid
from the Franchise Fees pursuant to the provisions of this
Resolution.

books, records and accounts, separate and apart from all other
records and accounts, showing correct and complete entries of all

Excise Taxes. 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 wi thin one hundred twenty (120) days
following the close of each Fiscal Year cause an audit of such
books, records and accounts relating to the Excise Taxes to be

recognized bond rating agencies and to the ini tial purchasers of
the Bond s. The aud i tors selected by the Issuer shall be changed

Owners.

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

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.
H. ISSUANCE OF OTHER OBLIGATIONS. The Issuer will not issue
any other obligations payable from the Excise Taxes nor voluntar-
ily create or cause to be created any debt, lien, pledge, assign-
ment, encumbrance or other charge having priority to or being on a
parity with the lien of the Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolu-
tion and the interest thereon, upon said Excise Taxes except under
the conditions and in the manner provided herein. Any obligations
issued by the Issuer other than the Bonds herein authorized and
Additional parity Obligations, payable from such Excise Taxes,
shall contain an express statement that such obligations are
junior, inferior and subord inate in all respects to the Bonds
herein authorized, as to lien on and source and security for

of the covenants and obligations assumed hereunder, and all pay-
ments herein required to have been made into the funds and
accounts, as provided hereunder, shall have been made to the full
extent required.
I. 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 City 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-

Moneys on deposit in the Construction Fund created pursuant
to the resolution authorizing the Refunded Bonds shall be trans-
ferred on the date of the issuance of the Series 1985 Bonds to the
City of Winter Springs Construction Fund hereby created and estab-
lished. Section 3.03(D) of the resolution authorizing the Refund-
ed Bonds shall apply to such transferred funds as though fully set

.. forth herein until all of such funds have been utilized as provid-
ed therein. All defined terms used in said section shall have the
same meaning as set forth in said resolution except that the term
"Sinking Fund" shall mean the "Debt Service Fund" and the term
"Certificates of Deposit" shall mean "Investment Securities."
SECTION 20. MODIFICATION OR AMENDMENT. No material modifi-
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
thereon, or in the amount of the principal obligation or affecting
the unconditional promise of the Issuer to pay the principal of
and interest on the Bonds as the same shall come due from the
Excise Taxes or reduce the percentage of the owners of the Bonds
required to consent to any material modification or amendment
hereof without the consent in writing of the Owner or Owners of
all such Bonds.
SECTION 21. DEFEASANCE. If, at any time, the Issuer shall
have paid, or shall have made provision for payment of, the prin-
cipal, interest and redemption premiums, if any, with respect to
the Bonds, then, and in that event, the pledge of and lien on the
funds pledged in favor of the Owners of the Bonds shall be no
longer in effect. For purposes of the preceding sentence, deposit
of sufficient cash and/or Federal Securities or bank certificates
of deposit fully secured as to principal and interest by Federal
Securities (or deposit of any other securities or investments
which may be authorized by law from time to time and sufficient
under such law to effect such a defeasance including Acquired
Obligations) in irrevocable trust with a banking institution or
trust company, for the sole benefit of the Owners of the Bonds in
respect to which such Federal Securities or certificates of
deposi t, 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.
SECTION 22. SEVERABILITY. If anyone or more of the cove-
nants, agreements or provisions of this Resolution should be held
contrary to any express provision of law or contrary to the policy
of express law, though not expressly prohibited, or against public
policy, or shall for any reason whatsoever be held invalid, then
