The Net Revenues shall immediately be subject to the lien of this pledge without any physical
delivery thereof or further act, and the lien of this pledge shall be valid and binding as against all parties
having claims of any kind in tort, contract or otherwise against the Issuer.
SECTION 17. APPLICATION OF SERIES 2000 BOND PROCEEDS. The proceeds, including
accrued interest and premium, if any, received from the sale of the Series 2000 Bonds shall be applied by
the Issuer simultaneously with the delivery of such Series 2000 Bonds to the underwriters thereof, as
follows:
(A) The accrued interest shall be deposited in the Interest Account and shall be used only for
the purpose of paying interest becoming due on the Series 2000 Current Interest Bonds.
(B) Unless provided from other funds of the Issuer on the date of issuance of the Series 2000
Bonds, or unless provided for through the purchase of a guaranty or an insurance policy, an irrevocable
letter of credit, or surety bond, as set forth below, the Issuer shall deposit to the special subaccount in the
Reserve Account hereby established for the benefit of the Series 2000 Bonds, a sum equal to the Reserve
Requirement on the Series 2000 Bonds. Amounts on deposit in such subaccount in the Reserve Account
shall be invested in Investment Securities which mature not more than five (5) years from the date of their
acquisition. Investment Securities on deposit in such subaccount in the Reserve Account shall be valued
by the Paying Agent as frequently as deemed necessary by the Bond Insurer but not less often than
annually, at the market value thereof, exclusive of accrued interest.
The Issuer may satisfy the Reserve Requirement by the deposit of a surety bond, insurance policy
or letter of credit as set forth below. Any such credit instrument (other than a credit instrument issued by
the Bond Insurer) shall comply with the following provisions:
1.
A surety bond or insurance policy issued to the entity serving as trustee or paying agent (the
"Fiduciary"), as agent of the bondholders, by a company licensed to issue an insurance policy
guaranteeing the timely payment of debt service on the Series 2000 Bonds (a "municipal bond
insurer") may be deposited in the subaccount in the Reserve Account to meet the Reserve
Requirement if the claims paying ability of the issuer thereof shall be rated "AAA" or "Aaa" by
S&P or Moody's, respectively.
2.
A surety bond or insurance policy issued to the Fiduciary, as agent of the bondholders, by an
entity other than a municipal bond insurer may be deposited in the subaccount in the Reserve
Account to meet the Reserve Requirement if the form and substance of such instrument and the
issuer thereof shall be approved by the Bond Insurer.
3.
An unconditional irrevocable letter of credit issued to the Fiduciary, as agent of the bondholders,
by a bank may be deposited in the subaccount in the Reserve Account to meet the Reserve
Requirement if the issuer thereof is rated at least "AA" by S&P. The letter of credit shall be
payable in one or more draws upon presentation by the beneficiary of a sight draft accompanied
by its certificate that it then holds insufficient funds to make a required payment of principal or
interest on the Series 2000 Bonds. The draws shall be payable within two days of presentation of
the sight draft. The letter of credit shall be for a term of not less than three years. The issuer of
the letter of credit shall be required to notify the Issuer and the Fiduciary, not later than 30 months
OR315142;4
11
prior to the stated expiration date of the letter of credit, as to whether such expiration date shall
be extended, and if so, shall indicate the new expiration date.
4.
If such notice indicates that the expiration date shall not be extended, the Issuer shall deposit in
the subaccount in the Reserve Account an amount sufficient to cause the cash or Investments
Securities on deposit in such subaccount together with any other qualifying credit instruments, to
equal the Reserve Requirement on all outstanding Series 2000 Bonds, such deposit to be paid in
equal installments on at least a semi-annual basis over the remaining term of the letter of credit,
unless such credit instrument is replaced by a credit instrument meeting the requirements in any
of 1-3 above. The letter of credit shall permit a draw in full not less than two weeks prior to the
expiration or termination of such letter of credit if the letter of credit has not been replaced or
renewed and the Fiduciary is in such a case hereby directed to draw upon the letter of credit prior
to its expiration or termination unless an acceptable replacement is in place or the subaccount in
the Reserve Account is fully funded in its required amount.
5.
The use of any credit instrument to this Paragraph shall be subject to receipt of an opinion of
counsel acceptable to the Bond Insurer and in form and substance satisfactory to the Bond Insurer
as to the due authorization, execution, delivery and enforceability of such instrument in accordance
with its terms, subject to applicable laws affecting creditors' rights generally, and, in the event the
issuer of such credit instrument is not a domestic entity, an opinion of foreign counsel in form and
substance satisfactory to the Bond Insurer. In addition, the use of an irrevocable letter of credit
shall be subject to receipt of an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Bond Insurer and in form and
substance satisfactory to the Bond Insurer to the effect that payments under such letter of credit
would not constitute avoidable preference under Section 547 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or
similar state laws with avoidable preference provisions in the event of the filing of a petition for
relief under the U. S. Bankruptcy Code or similar laws by or against the Issuer (or any other
account party under the letter of credit).
6.
The obligation to reimburse the issuer of any such credit instrument for any fees, expenses, claims
or draws upon such credit instrument shall be subordinate to the payment of debt service on the
Series 2000 Bonds. The right of the issuer of a credit instrument to payment or reimbursement
of its fees and expenses shall be subordinated to cash replenishment of the subaccount in the
Reserve Account, and, subject to the second succeeding sentence, its right to reimbursement for
claims or draws shall be on a parity with the cash replenishment of the subaccount in the Reserve
Account. The credit instrument shall provide for a revolving feature under which the amount
available thereunder will be reinstated to the extent of any reimbursement of draws or claims paid.
If the revolving feature is suspended or terminated for any reason, the right of the issuer of such
credit instrument to reimbursement will be further subordinated to cash replenishment of the
subaccount of the Reserve Account to an amount equal to the difference between the full original
amount available under such credit instrument and the amount then available for further draws or
claims. If (a) the issuer of a credit instrument becomes insolvent or (b) the issuer of a credit
instrument defaults in its payment obligations thereunder or (c) the claims-paying ability of the
issuer of the insurance policy or surety bond falls below a S&P "AAA" or a Moody's "Aaa" or
(d) the rating of the issuer of the letter of credit falls below a S&P "AA," the obligation to
reimburse the issuer of such credit instrument shall be subordinate to the cash replenishment of
the subaccount in the Reserve Account.
OR315142;4
12
7. If (a) the revolving reinstatement feature described in the preceding paragraph is suspended or
terminated or (b) the rating of the claims paying ability of the issuer of the surety bond or
insurance policy falls below a S&P "AAA" or a Moody's "Aaa" or (c) the rating of the issuer of
the letter of credit falls below a S&P "AA," the Issuer shall either (i) deposit into the subaccount
in the Reserve Account an amount sufficient to cause the cash or Investments Securities on deposit
in such subaccount to equal the Reserve Requirement on all outstanding Series 2000 Bonds, such
amount to be paid over the ensuing five years in equal installments deposited at least semi-annually
or (ii) replace such instrument with a surety bond, insurance policy or letter of credit meeting the
requirements in any of 1-3 above within six months of such occurrence. In the event (a) the rating
of the claims-paying ability of the issuer of the surety bond insurance policy falls below "A" or
(b) the rating of the issuer of the letter of credit falls below "A" or (c) the issuer of such credit
instrument defaults in its payment obligations or (d) the issuer of such credit instrument becomes
insolvent, the Issuer shall either (i) deposit into the subaccount in the Reserve Account an amount
sufficient to cause the cash or Investment Securities on deposit in the subaccount in the Reserve
Account to equal the Reserve Requirement on all outstanding Series 2000 Bonds, such amount to
be paid over the ensuing year in equal installments on at least a monthly basis or (ii) replace such
instrument with a surety bond, insurance policy or letter of credit meeting the requirements in any
of 1-3 above within six months of such occurrence.
8. Where applicable, the amount available for draws or claims under such credit instrument may be
reduced by the amount of cash or Investment Securities deposited in the subaccount in the Reserve
Account pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding subparagraph 7.
9. Any amounts owed by the Issuer to the issuer of such credit instrument as a result of a draw
thereon or a claim thereunder, as appropriate, shall be included in any calculation of debt service
requirements required to be made pursuant to the Resolution for any purpose, e.g., rate covenant
or additional bonds test.
10. The Fiduciary is required to ascertain the necessity for a claim or draw upon the credit instrument
and to provide notice to the issuer of the credit instrument in accordance with its terms not later
than three days (or such longer period as may be necessary depending on the permitted time period
of honoring a draw under such credit instrument) prior to each interest payment date.
11. Cash on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be used (or investments purchased with such cash
shall be liquidated and the proceeds applied as required) prior to any drawing on any credit
instrument. If and to the extent that more than one credit instrument is deposited in the subaccount
in the Reserve Account, drawings thereunder and repayments of costs associated therewith shall
be made on a pro rata basis, calculated by reference to the maximum amounts available
thereunder.
(C) A sum as specified by a supplemental resolution of the Issuer shall, together with other
legally available funds of the Issuer, if any, as determined by subsequent resolution of the Issuer, be used
to defease the Refunded Bonds by depositing such sums of money for investment in acquired obligations
(as defined in the resolution pursuant to which such Refunded Bonds were issued) pursuant to the Escrow
Deposit Agreement so as to produce sufficient funds to make all the payments described in such Escrow
Deposit Agreement. At the time of execution of such Escrow Deposit Agreement, the Issuer shall furnish
OR315142;4
13
to the escrow agent named therein appropriate documentation to demonstrate that the sums being deposited
and the investment to be made will be sufficient for such purposes. Simultaneously with the issuance of
the Series 2000 Bonds, the Issuer shall enter into the Agreement. Such escrowed funds shall be kept
separate and apart from all other funds of the Issuer and the moneys on deposit under the Agreement shall
be withdrawn, used and applied by the Issuer solely for the purposes set forth in the Agreements.
(D) The balance of the proceeds of the Series 2000 Bonds shall be deposited into the City of
Winter Springs, Florida Water and Sewer Construction Fund (the "Construction Fund") hereby created
and used solely for the purpose of paying Costs of the Project. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding
sentence, amounts on deposit in the Construction Fund shall be used to pay the due debt service on the
Series 2000 Bonds to the extent there are no other available funds in the event of a payment default. Other
than costs of issuing and delivering the Series 2000 Bonds which shall be paid at the direction of the City
Manager of the Issuer or her designee, the Issuer shall make disbursements or payments from the
Construction Fund to pay the Costs of the Project only upon the filing in the office of the Clerk of
certificates signed by the Finance Director and the Project engineer or other qualified consultant, stating
with respect to each disbursement or payment to be made: (1) the item number of the payment, (2) the
name and address of the Person to whom payment is due, (3) the amount to be paid, and (4) that each
obligation, item or cost or expense mentioned therein has been properly incurred, is in payment of a part
of the Cost of the Project and is a proper charge against the Construction Fund and has not been the basis
of any previous disbursement or payment, or that each obligation, item of cost or expense mentioned
therein is a reimbursement of a part of the Cost of the Project which has been paid by the Issuer or will
be paid by the Issuer substantially contemporaneously with such disbursement from the Construction Fund,
and is a proper charge against the Construction Fund, has not been theretofore reimbursed to the Issuer
or otherwise been the basis of any previous disbursement or payment and the Issuer is entitled to
reimbursement thereof.
The date of completion of the Project shall be determined by the Project engineer or other qualified
consultant who shall certify such fact in writing to the governing body of the Issuer. Promptly after the
date of completion of the Project, and after paying or making provisions for the payment of all unpaid
items of the Cost of the Project, the Issuer shall deposit in the following order of priority any balance of
moneys remaining in the Construction Fund in (1) another construction fund or account established in
connection with projects for which there are insufficient moneys present to pay the costs of such project,
(2) the subaccount in the Reserve Account created for the benefit of the Series 2000 Bonds, to the extent
of a deficiency therein and (3) such other fund or account of the Issuer, including those established under
the Original Resolution, as shall be determined by the governing body, provided the Issuer has received
an opinion of bond counsel to the effect that such transfer shall not adversely affect the exclusion of interest
on the Series 2000 Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes.
SECTION 18. SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF ISSUER. The Series 2000 Bonds shall not be or
constitute general obligations or indebtedness of the Issuer as "bonds" within the meaning of the
Constitution of 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 Series 2000 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.
OR315142;4
14
The payment of the principal of and interest on the Series 2000 Bonds shall be secured forthwith
equally and ratably by an irrevocable lien on the Net Revenues on a parity with the lien thereon of the
Parity Bonds, and the Issuer does irrevocably pledge such Net Revenues to the payment of the principal
of and interest on the Series 2000 Bonds, for the reserves therefor and for all other required payments
hereunder. Such amounts hereby pledged and assigned shall immediately be subject to the lien of this
pledge without any further physical delivery thereof or any further act, and the lien of this pledge shall be
valid and binding as against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract or otherwise against the
Issuer, irrespective of whether such parties have notice thereof.
SECTION 19. COVENANTS OF THE ISSUER. The provisions of Section 19 of the Original
Resolution (except as otherwise stated in Section 16 hereof) shall be deemed applicable to this Resolution
and shall apply to the Series 2000 Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution as though fully restated herein.
SECTION 20. TAX COVENANTS. The Issuer shall not use or permit the use of any proceeds
of the Series 2000 Bonds or any other funds of the Issuer, directly or indirectly, to acquire any securities
or obligations, and shall not use or permit the use of any amounts received by the Issuer with respect to
the Series 2000 Bonds in any manner, and shall not take or permit to be taken any other action or actions,
which would cause any such Series 2000 Bonds to be an "arbitrage bond" within the meaning of Section
148, or a "private activity bond" within the meaning of Section 141, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (in this Section called the "Code"), or otherwise cause interest on the such Series 2000 Bonds
to become included in gross income for federal income tax purposes.
The Issuer shall at all times do and perform all acts and things which are necessary or desirable
in order to assure that interest paid on such Series 2000 Bonds will be excluded from gross income for
purposes of federal income tax and shall take no action that would result in such interest not being so
excluded.
The Issuer shall payor cause to be paid to the United States Government any amounts required
by Section 148 (f) of Code and the regulations thereunder (the "Regulations").
SECTION 21. MUNICIPAL BOND INSURANCE. In regard to the Series 2000 Bonds, the
Issuer agrees with the Bond Insurer for the Series 2000 Bonds as follows:
(A) Pavment provisions
(i)
If, on the third day preceding any interest payment date for the Series 2000 Bonds
there is not on deposit with the Paying Agent sufficient moneys available to pay
all principal of, Accreted Value and interest on the Series 2000 Bonds due on such
date, the Paying Agent shall immediately notify the Bond Insurer and State Street
Bank and Trust Company, N.A., New York, New York or its successor as its
Fiscal Agent (the "Fiscal Agent") of the amount of such deficiency. If, by said
interest payment date, the Issuer has not provided the amount of such deficiency,
the Paying Agent shall simultaneously make available to the Bond Insurer and to
the Fiscal Agent the registration books for the Series 2000 Bonds maintained by
the Paying Agent. In addition:

to the Bond Insurer pursuant to (a) above, notify Bondholders entitled to
receive the payment of principal of, Accreted Value, or interest on the
Series 2000 Bond from the Bond Insurer (1) as to the fact of such
entitlement, (2) that the Bond Insurer will remit to them all or part of the
interest payments coming due subject to the terms of the Bond Insurance
Policy, (3) that, except as provided in paragraph (ii) below, in the event that
any Bondholder is entitled to receive full payment of principal or Accreted

Bond with the instrument of transfer in the form provided on the Series
2000 Bond executed in the name of the Bond Insurer, and (4) that, except
as provided in paragraph (ii) below, in the event that such Bondholder is
entitled to receive partial payment of principal or Accreted Value from the
Bond Insurer, such Bondholder must tender his Series 2000 Bond for
payment first to the Paying Agent, which shall note on such Series 2000
Bond the portion of principal or Accreted Value paid by the Paying Agent,
and then, with an acceptable form of assignment executed in the name of the
Bond Insurer, to the Fiscal Agent, which will then pay the unpaid portion
of principal or Accreted Value to the Bondholder subject to the terms ofthe
Bond Insurance Policy.
In the event that the Paying Agent has notice that any payment of principal of,
Accreted Value or interest on a Series 2000 Bond that has been recovered from
a Series 2000 Bondholder pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code by a
trustee in bankruptcy in accordance with the final, nonappealable order of a court
having competent jurisdiction, the Paying Agent shall, at the time it provides
notice to the Bond Insurer, notify all Series 2000 Bondholders that in the event
that any Series 2000 Bondholder's payment is so recovered, such Bondholder will
be entitled to payment from the Bond Insurer to the extent of such recovery, and
the Paying Agent shall furnish to the Bond Insurer its records evidencing the
payments of principal of, Accreted Value, and interest on the Series 2000 Bonds
which have been made by the Paying Agent and subsequently recovered from
Series 2000 Bondholders, and the dates on which such payments were made.
The Bond Insurer shall, to the extent it makes payment of principal of, Accreted
Value or interest on the Series 2000 Bonds, become subrogated to the rights of the
16
recipients of such payments in accordance with the terms of the Bond Insurance
Policy and, to evidence such subrogation, (A) in the case of subrogation as to
claims for past due interest, the Paying Agent shall note the Bond Insurer's rights

2000 Bonds. Notwithstanding anything in the Resolution or the Series 2000
