SECTION 2.2 DESCRIPTION OF 1999 BOND. The text of the 1999 Bond shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be necessary and desirable, as evidenced by the City's execution thereof. The 1999 Bond (initially issued in one (1) typewritten certificate) shall be dated the date of initial issuance. Unless the interest rate on the 1999 Bond is converted to the Prime Rate or is otherwise subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.7 hereof, the 1999 Bond shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount of the 1999 Bond from time to time at the Interest Rate. Principal of and interest on the 1999 Bond shall be payable in equal installments on each quarterly Payment Date commencing October 1, 1999. All previously unpaid principal of the 1999 Bond and all previously accrued and unpaid interest on the 1999 Bond shall be payable on the Maturity Date. The 1999 Bond shall be issued in registered form. 7 In the event that the City shall determine that seasonal fluctuations in Pledged Revenues have made it impracticable for the City to make the quarterly payments of principal of and interest on the 1999 Bond at the times and in the amounts described in the preceding paragraph, the City may alter the schedule of such quarterly payments to correspond to such seasonal fluctuations, subject to the following conditions: (i) such altered schedule of payments shall not reduce the sum total of principal and interest payments on the 1999 Bond payable during each year that the 1999 Bond shall remain outstanding; (ii) the Bondholder shall be given a written copy of such altered schedule of payments not less than 30 days before it shall take effect; (iii) the City shall provide the Bondholder with a replacement 1999 Bond reflecting such altered schedule of payments (and the Bondholder shall be obligated to return to the City for cancellation the 1999 Bond that it shall be holding at the time of such replacement); and (iv) the City shall provide the Bank, at the City's sole cost and expense, an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that the imposition of such altered schedule of payments shall not have an adverse effect on the exclusion of interest on the 1999 Bond from the gross income of the Bondholder for federal income tax purposes. Principal and interest on the 1999 Bond shall be payable at the office of the Paying Agent (the designated corporate trust office of the Paying Agent if the City's Finance Department is not the Paying Agent). The 1999 Bond shall be numbered in such manner as may be prescribed by the Registrar. The 1999 Bond shall be payable, with respect to interest and principal, in any coin or currency of the United States of America which at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. The City may prepay the 1999 Bond in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, without penalty or premium, by paying to the registered holder all or part of the principal amount of the 1999 Bond, together with the unpaid interest accrued on the amount of principal so prepaid to the date of such prepayment. Each prepayment shall be made on such date and in such principal amount as shall be specified by the City in a written notice delivered to the registered owner not less than ten (10) business days prior thereto. If such prepayment shall be for only a portion of the unpaid principal balance of the 1999 Bond, such prepayment shall be applied against the obligation of the City to pay future amortization installments on the 1999 Bond in the inverse order in which such amortization installments shall become due. Notice having been given as aforesaid, the principal amount stated in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date stated in such notice; and the amount of principal shall be paid (i) in case the entire unpaid balance of the principal of the 1999 Bond is to be paid, upon presentation and surrender of the 1999 Bond to the office of the Paying Agent (the designated corporate trust office, if the Paying Agent is not the City's Finance Department), and (ii) in case only part of the unpaid balance of principal of the 1999 Bond is to be paid, upon presentation of such 1999 Bond at the office of the Paying Agent (the 8 designated corporate trust office, if the Paying Agent is not the City's Finance Department) for notation thereon of the amount of principal then paid or for issuance of a replacement 1999 Bond in the principal amount not redeemed. Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (ii) above, so long as the 1999 Bond shall be registered in the name of the Bank, a partial prepayment may be effected by payment to the Bank of the principal without surrender of the 1999 Bond. If, on the prepayment date, funds for the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid shall have been provided to the Paying Agent, as above provided, then from and after the prepayment date interest on such principal amount of the 1999 Bond shall cease to accrue. If said funds shall not have been so paid on the prepayment date with respect to principal and on the next succeeding Payment Date with respect to interest, the principal amount of the 1999 Bond shall continue to bear interest until payment thereof. SECTION 2.3 EXECUTION OF THE 1999 BOND. The 1999 Bond shall be executed in the name of the City by the signature of the Mayor of the City and its official seal shall be affixed thereto or imprinted or reproduced thereon and attested by the City Clerk. The signatures of the Mayor of the City and City Clerk on the 1999 Bond may be manual or facsimile signatures. In case anyone or more of the officers who shall have signed or sealed the 1999 Bond shall cease to be such officer of the City before the 1999 Bond so signed and sealed shall have been actually sold and delivered, such 1999 Bond may nevertheless be sold and delivered as herein provided and may be issued as if the person who signed or sealed such 1999 Bond had not ceased to hold such office. The 1999 Bond may be signed and sealed on behalf of the City by such person who at the actual time of the execution of the 1999 Bond shall hold the proper office, although at the date the 1999 Bond shall be actually delivered such person may not have held such office or may not have been so authorized. The 1999 Bond shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication, in the form set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, executed manually by the Registrar (when the City's Finance Department shall act as Registrar, the certificate of authentication shall be manually executed by the City's Finance Director). Only if a 1999 Bond shall bear thereon such certificate of authentication shall it be entitled to any right or benefit under this Ordinance and no 1999 Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose until such certificate of authentication shall have been duly executed by the Registrar. The certificate of authentication of the Registrar upon the 1999 Bond executed on behalf of the City shall be conclusive evidence that the 1999 Bond so authenticated have been duly authenticated and delivered under this Ordinance and that the Owner thereof is entitled to the benefits of this Ordinance. SECTION 2.4 NEGOTIABILITY. REGISTRATION AND CANCELLATION. The Registrar shall keep books for the registration of the 1999 Bond and for the registration of transfers of the 1999 Bond. The 1999 Bond shall be transferable at the option of the registered Owner thereof to an institutional holder, but subject to the prior written approval of the City's Finance Director (which shall not be unreasonably withheld if the intended transferee provides a suitability letter addressed to the City as to the sophistication of the investor) unless such institutional holder is a bank or trust company, or unless such institutional holder, which is not a bank or trust company, certifies in writing to the City prior to the transfer that it is an accredited inyestor within the meaning of Rule 501 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and supplemented, in which case such approval shall not be required, and upon surrender thereof at the 9 office of the Registrar (the designated corporate trust office of the Registrar if the City's Finance Department is not the Registrar) with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the registered Owner or his duly authorized attorney. Upon the transfer of such 1999 Bond, the City shall issue in the name of the transferee a new 1999 Bond. The City, the Paying Agent and the Registrar shall deem and treat the person in whose name the 1999 Bond shall be registered upon the books kept by the Registrar as the absolute Owner of such 1999 Bond, whether such 1999 Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of and interest on such 1999 Bond as the same become due and for all other purposes. All such payments so made to any such Owner or upon his/her order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such 1999 Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, and neither the City, the Paying Agent nor the Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. In all cases in which the privilege of transferring the 1999 Bond is exercised, the City shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver the 1999 Bond in accordance with the provisions of this Ordinance. The 1999 Bond surrendered in any such transfers shall forthwith be delivered to the Registrar and canceled by the Registrar in the manner provided in this Section. The City or the Registrar (ifnot the City's Finance Department) may require the payment of a sum sufficient to pay any tax, fee or other governmental charges required to be paid with respect to such transfer. The 1999 Bond paid or redeemed, in whole, either at or before maturity, shall be delivered to the Registrar when the payment or redemption is made, and such 1999 Bond shall thereupon be promptly canceled. The 1999 Bond so canceled may at any time be destroyed by the Registrar, who shall execute a certificate of destruction in duplicate by the signature of one of its authorized officers describing the 1999 Bond, and one executed certificate shall be filed with the City and the other executed certificate shall be retained by the Registrar (if not the City's Finance Department). SECTION 2.5 MUTILATED. DESTROYED. STOLEN OR LOST 1999 BOND. In case any 1999 Bond shall become mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, the City shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver a new 1999 Bond of like date, maturity and denomination as the 1999 Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost; provided that, in the case of any mutilated 1999 Bond, such mutilated 1999 Bond shall first be surrendered to the City and, in the case of any lost, stolen or destroyed 1999 Bond, there shall first be furnished to the City and the Registrar (if not the City's Finance Department) evidence of such loss, theft, or destruction satisfactory to the City and the Registrar, together with indemnity satisfactory to them. In the event the 1999 Bond shall be about to mature or have matured, instead of issuing a duplicate 1999 Bond, the City may pay the same without surrender thereof. The City and the Registrar (if not the City's Finance Department) may charge the Owner of such 1999 Bond their reasonable fees and expenses in connection with this transaction. Any 1999 Bond surrendered for replacement shall be canceled in the same manner as provided in Section 2.4 hereof. Any such duplicate 1999 Bond issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute additional contractual obligations on the part of the City, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed 1999 10 Bond be at any time found by anyone, and such duplicate 1999 Bond shall be entitled to equal proportionate benefits and rights as to lien on the source and security for payment from Pledged Revenues with the 1999 Bond issued hereunder. SECTION 2.6 CONDITIONS FOR ISSUANCE OF THE 1999 BOND. Prior to the issuance of the 1999 Bond, the City shall comply with the following conditions: (a) Deliver to the Bank a fully executed Tax Certificate; and (b) Deliver to the Bank a copy ofa completed and executed Form 8038-G to be filed by the City with the Internal Reyenue Service; and (c) Cause to be delivered to the Bank an opinion of Bond Counsel, who may be counsel to the Bank, regarding, as the case may be, the due authorization, execution, delivery, validity and enforceability of the 1999 Bond and the pledge of the Pledged Revenues therefor and the due adoption of this Ordinance (enforceability of such instruments may be subject to standard bankruptcy exceptions and the like) and the exclusion of interest on the 1999 Bond from gross income for federal income tax purposes, that the 1999 Bond is not a specified "private activity bond" within the meaning of Section 57(a)(5) of the Code and, therefore, the interest on the 1999 Bond will not be treated as a preference item for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed by Section 55 of the Code (however, a portion of the interest on the 1999 Bond owned by corporations may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax which is based in part on adjusted current earnings). Such opinion shall also state that the 1999 Bond is a "qualified tax- exempt obligation" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code; and (d) Deliver to the Bank an opinion of the City Attorney, satisfactory to the Bank and its counsel, regarding, as the case may be, the due authorization, execution, delivery, validity and enforceability of the 1999 Bond and the first perfected pledge of the Pledged Revenues therefor, and the due adoption of this Ordinance (enforceability may be subject to standard bankruptcy exceptions and the like); and (e) Deliver to the Bank a general certificate of the City in form satisfactory to the Bank and its counsel certifying, among other things, that the City is in compliance with the term of the Ordinance. SECTION 2.7 INTEREST RATE ADJUSTMENT. If the interest on the 1999 Bond while registered in the name of the Bank becomes includable in the gross income of the Bank for federal income tax purposes as determined in the manner set forth below (herein a "Determination of Taxability") the interest rate on the 1999 Bond shall be adjusted so that the 1999 Bond shall bear interest at the Prime Rate. A Determination of Taxability shall have deemed to occur when (i) the Bank has been advised in writing by the Internal Revenue Service that the interest payable on the 1999 Bond must be includable in the gross income of the Bank for federal income tax purposes or (ii) the entry by a court of a final judgment or order or the promulgation by the Internal Revenue Service of a final ruling or decision, in either such case to the effect that the interest on the 1999 Bond is includable for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of the Bank. 11 A Determination of Taxability shall not include inclusion of interest on any 1999 Bond in the income of the Bank for purposes of any alternative minimum tax, environmental tax or branch profits tax or on account of the Bank being a "substantial user" or a "related person" within the meaning of Section 147(a) of the Code. In the case of (i) above, no Determination of Taxability shall be deemed to occur unless the City has been given timely written notice by the Bank of such determination by the Internal Revenue Service and afforded an opportunity to participate in and seek at its own expense, a final administrative determination or determination by a court of competent jurisdiction (from which no further right of appeal exists) as to the existence of such Determination of Taxability; provided that the City, at its own expense, delivers to the Bank an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such appeal or action for judicial or administrative review is not without merit and there is a reasonable possibility that the judgment, order, ruling or decision from which such appeal or action for judicial or administrative review is taken will be reversed, vacated or otherwise set aside. In the event of a Determination of Taxability, the City covenants that it shall also pay any interest, additions to tax or penalties, resulting from the interest on the 1999 Bond being includable in the Bank's gross income for federal income tax purposes, and any arrears in interest resulting from such Determination of Taxability. Any such additional amounts (established to the satisfaction of the City) shall be payable by the City to the Bank on the next succeeding Payment Date or, if such amounts become payable after the Maturity Date of the 1999 Bond within 60 days of the date the City is notified by the Bank that such amounts are due. In addition to the foregoing provisions of this section, the interest rate on the 1999 Bond shall be adjusted automatically as of the effective date of any change in the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate (hereinafter defined) or in the Preference Reduction Rate (hereinafter defined), presently 20%, based upon the following calculations; provided, however, that if the 1999 Bond is not a Qualified Tax-Exempt Obligation within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), on the date of its original issuance and delivery, or if the 1999 Bond at any time subsequent to its original issuance and delivery no longer qualifies as a Qualified Tax-Exempt Obligation, then the Preference Reduction Rate shall be adjusted as of the date of original issuance and delivery of the 1999 Bond or as of such subsequent date, as the case may be. Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, the interest rate on the 1999 Bond shall be adjusted to the product obtained by multiplying the interest rate on the 1999 Bond by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the sum of: (i) the product of the Fully Taxable Equivalent (hereinafter defined) times one minus the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in effect as of the day of adjustment, and (ii) the TEFRA Adjustment (hereinafter defined) in effect as of the date of adjustment; and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of: (i) the product of the Fully Taxable Equivalent times one minus the Maximum Corporate Tax Rate in effect as of the date of the original issuance and delivery of the 1999 Bond, and (ii) the TEFRA Adjustment in effect as of the date of the original issuance and delivery of the 1999 Bond. 12 For the purpose hereof: (1) "Maximum Corporate Tax Rate" means on the date of original issuance and delivery of this 1998 Certificate 35% and thereafter the maximum marginal rate of income tax imposed on corporations under Section 11 of the Code or any successor provision; (2) "TEFRA Adjustment" means an adjustment equal to the product of the following: Cost of Funds multiplied by the applicable Maximum Corporate Tax Rate multiplied by the applicable Preference Reduction Rate; (3) "Cost of Funds" means one hundred (100) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the total interest expense of SunTrust Banks, Inc., for its immediately preceding tax year, and the denominator of which is equal to the average total assets of SunTrust Banks, Inc., but at no time will be determined to exceed the cost of Fed Funds; (4) "Preference Reduction Rate" means the percentage reduction to be applied to the amount allowable as a deduction under Chapter I of the Code with respect to any financial institution preference item (as such term is defined in Section 291(e) of the Code); and (5) "Fully Taxable Equivalent" means the ten (10) year U.S. Treasury yield plus 0.95 percent, expressed as a number and not as a percentage. For the purposes of this paragraph and the two preceding paragraphs, all percentages shall be expressed as decimals. ARTICLE ill COVENANTS, FUNDS AND APPLICATION THEREOF SECTION 3.1 1999 BOND NOT TO BE INDEBTEDNESS OF THE CITY. The 1999 Bond shall not be or constitute an indebtedness of the City within the meaning of any constitutional, statutory or other limitation of indebtedness, but shall be secured solely by and payable from the Pledged Revenues. No Bondholder shall ever have the right to compel the exercise of the ad valorem taxing power of the City, or taxation in any form of any real property therein, to pay said 1999 Bond or the interest thereon. The pledge of the Pledged Revenues will not constitute a lien upon any property of the City. SECTION 3.2 1999 BOND SECURED BY PLEDGE OF PLEDGED REVENUES. From and after the issuance of the 1999 Bond, and continuing until the payment of the 1999 Bond as to principal and interest, the Pledged Revenues shall continue to be pledged for the prompt payment of principal of and interest on said 1999 Bond. The pledge of the Pledged Revenues for payment of principal and interest on the 1999 Bond is on a parity with the pledge of the Pledged Revenues for payment of principal and interest on the City's outstanding Utilities Tax Revenue Bond, Series 1998 under the 1998 Bond Ordinance. SECTION 3.3 COVENANTS OF THE CITY. As long as any of the principal of or interest on the 1999 Bond shall be outstanding and unpaid, or until there shall have been set apart in the Debt Service Fund in accordance with Section 3.6 hereof a sum sufficient to pay, when due, the entire principal of the 1999 Bond remaining unpaid, together with interest accrued and to accrue thereon, the City covenants with the Bondholders as follows: 13 (a) Tax Covenants Relating to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. (1) In order to maintain the exclusion from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation of interest on the 1999 Bond, the City covenants to comply with each requirement of the Code. In furtherance of the covenant contained in the preceding sentence, the City agrees to continually comply with the provisions of the Tax Certificate, as such certificate may be amended from time to time, as a source of guidance for achieving compliance with the Code. (2) The City covenants and agrees with the Bondholders that the City shall not take any action or omit to take any action, which action or omission, if reasonably expected on the date of initial issuance and delivery of the 1999 Bond, would cause the 1999 Bond to be a "private activity bonds" or "arbitrage bond" within the meaning of Sections 141(a) and 148(a), respectively, of the Code. (3) The City shall make any and all payments required to be made to the United States Department of the Treasury in connection with the 1999 Bond pursuant to Section 148(f) of the Code. (4) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance to the contrary, so long as necessary in order to maintain the exclusion from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation of interest on the 1999 Bond, the covenants contained in this Section shall survive the payment of the 1999 Bond and the interest thereon, including any payment or discharge thereof pursuant to Section 3.6 of this Ordinance. (b) Establishment of Debt Service Fund. There is hereby created and established the following fund entitled the "Sunny Isles Beach Utilities Tax Revenue Bond Debt Service Fund" (hereinafter referred to as the "Debt Service Fund"). The Debt Service Fund shall constitute a trust fund for the benefit of the Bondholder and shall be held by the City in an account maintained at the Bank and shall be kept separate and distinct from all other funds of the City, and shall be used only for the purpose and in the manner provided in this Ordinance. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, the City may deposit the proceeds of the Utilities Tax in a commingled account maintained at the Bank for the City, provided that the City maintains adequate accounting procedures to reflect and control the restricted allocations of the funds on deposit therein for the various purposes of such funds. The designation and establishment of the Debt Service Fund in and by this Ordinance shall not be construed to require the establishment of any completely independent self-balancing fund, as such term is commonly defined and used in governmental accounting, but rather is intended solely to constitute an allocation of certain revenues of the City for certain purposes and to establish certain priorities for application of such revenues as provided herein. The City may withdraw any excess amounts remaining in the Debt Service Fund after payment has been made on the 1999 Bond and the City's outstanding Utilities Tax Revenue Bond, Series 1998 on any Payment Date to be used for any lawful municipal purpose. Moneys on deposit in the Debt Service Fund may be invested in Authorized Investments at the written direction of the City, provided such inyestments mature not later than the 14 next succeeding Payment Date. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Code and the preceding paragraph, all income and earnings received from the investment and reinvestment of the moneys on deposit in the Debt Service Fund shall remain on deposit in the Debt Service Fund and be used in the same manner as other moneys on deposit therein. (c) Disposition of Pledged Revenues. Not later than the fifteenth day of each month commencing July 15, 1999, the City shall deposit in the Debt Service Fund the proceeds of the Utilities Tax in an amount equal to one-quarter (1/4) of an amount sufficient to pay the principal of and interest becoming due on the 1999 Bond on October 1, 1999, and beginning October 15, 1999 in an amount equal to one-quarter (1/4) of the principal of and interest becoming due on the 1999 Bond on the next Payment Date, and shall further cause to be deposited into the Debt Service Fund one business day prior to each Payment Date the proceeds of the Utilities Tax in an amount necessary to satisfy any deficiency in the Debt Service Fund on such date; provided, however, that such deposit of the interest and principal amount shall not be required to be made to the extent that moneys on deposit in the Debt Service Fund are sufficient for such purpose. The City covenants to deposit, on the business day prior to the Maturity Date, the proceeds of the Utilities Tax (or other legally available moneys) into the Debt Service Fund in an amount sufficient to pay the outstanding principal of and interest on the 1999 Bond. The provisions of this subsection are in addition to the requirements of Section 3.3(c) of the 1998 Bond Ordinance regarding the disposition of the proceeds of the Utilities Tax. (d) Levy of Utilities Tax. Without the prior written consent of the Bank, the City will not repeal, amend or modify the Utilities Tax Ordinance in any manner so as to (i) impair or adversely affect the power and obligation of the City to levy and collect the Utilities Tax, or (ii) impair or adversely affect in any manner the pledge of the Utilities Tax made herein. Without the prior written consent of the Bank, the City will not change, revise or reduce the Utilities Tax if, in the opinion of the City Manager, such change, revision or reduction will result in producing less Pledged Revenues unless, in the opinion of the City Manager, such rates, fees and charges as so changed, revised or reduced will produce sufficient Pledged Revenues to comply with the requirements of the next succeeding paragraph. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, from time to time and as often as it shall appear necessary the City shall revise the Utilities Tax as may be necessary or proper in order that the Pledged Revenues shall at all times be sufficient in each fiscal year of the City to provide an amount at least equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the principal and interest requirements on the 1999 Bond and the City's outstanding Utilities Tax Revenue Bond, Series 1998 becoming due and payable during such fiscal year. The City covenants that, if the total amount of Pledged Revenues realized in any fiscal year of the City shall be less than the amounts referred to above for such fiscal year, it shall, before the 15th day of November of the following fiscal year, take such actions as shall enable the City to comply with the coverage requirements of this Section during such following fiscal year. (e) Enforcement of Collections. The City will diligently enforce and collect the Utilities Tax, will take steps, actions and proceedings for the enforcement and collection of such 15 Utilities Tax as shall become delinquent to the full extent permitted or authorized by law, and will maintain accurate records with respect thereof. (I) Budget and Other Financial Information. The City shall provide the Bank with a copy of its audited general purpose financial statements within 120 days of the close of each fiscal year during which the 1999 Bond shall remain outstanding.

Such unaudited statements shall be deliyered to the Bank within 30 days after the fiscal period covered by such statements. The City shall demonstrate in each annual budget that there are sufficient proceeds of the Utilities Tax to pay the principal of and interest on the 1999 Bond coming due in the fiscal year covered by such annual budget. The City shall provide the Bank with a copy of its approved annual budget within 30 days after the final adoption thereof and with such other financial information regarding the City as the Bank may reasonably request. SECTION 3.4 REMEDIES OF BONDHOLDER. Should the City default in any obligation created by this Ordinance, the Bondholder may, in addition to any remedy set forth in this Ordinance, either at law or in equity, by suit, action, mandamus or other proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction, protect and enforce any and all rights under the laws of the State of Florida, or granted and contained in this Ordinance, and may enforce and compel the performance of all duties required by this Ordinance, or by any applicable statutes to be performed by the City or by any officer thereof. The City hereby agrees with the Bondholder that the filing of any bankruptcy or insolvency under any federal or state law by or against the City which is not dismissed with prejudice within 30 days of such filing shall give the Bondholder the right to exercise any of the remedies provided to them under this Section 3.4. SECTION 3.5 APPLICATION OF 1999 BOND PROCEEDS.
