    WHEREAS, the Administration intends to issue one or more series of its Local Government Infrastructure Bonds (Ambac Insured) (the "Administration's Bonds") to finance the Loan and other loans to be financed pursuant to the Program (the "Administration Financing").


    NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:


Section 1. Authorization, Terms, Form of Bonds.


(a)       The Issuer shall borrow upon its full faith and credit and shall issue and sell upon its full faith and credit an aggregate principal amount not to exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) principal amount of its general obligation bonds, to be issued pursuant to the authority of Section 2-204(16)(iv) of Article 83B of the Maryland Code, to be known as the "Town of Forest Heights, Maryland Infrastructure Bonds, 2005 Series A" (the "Bonds"). The proceeds from the sale of the Bonds shall be used for the purpose of providing a portion of the funds necessary for financing the Project and the payment of issuance costs, bond insurance premiums and other related costs.


(b)       The Bonds shall be issued as a single fully registered bond certificate in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) payable to the Administration as the registered owner thereof. The Bonds shall be issued in such amount or such lesser amount as determined by the Mayor, pursuant to subsection (g) below, which shall be equal to the principal amount of the Loan to be financed under the Program.


(c)       The Bonds shall be dated as of the date of issue, or as of such other date as is specified by the Administration; shall be numbered R-1; shall be initially registered in the name of the Administration or its designee; shall bear interest from the Date which is one month prior to their dated date, payable semiannually on May 1 and November 1, at such annual rate or Rates and be payable in annual principal installments at the designated Office of the Administration.


(d)       The Bonds shall bear interest at an annual rate or rates of interest not to exceed 4.70 percent for a loan with a maturity of twenty years, the actual rate of rates of interest to be borne by the Bonds to be determined and established by the Mayor acting pursuant to Section 1(g) of this Resolution.

(e)       The Bonds shall be in substantially the form set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, which form, together with all of the covenants and conditions therein contained, is hereby adopted by the Issuer as and for the form of obligation to be incurred by the Issuer and such covenants and conditions are hereby made binding upon the Issuer, including the promise to pay therein contained.


(f)        The Bonds are to be issued in connection with the Program to finance a portion of the Project and to pay costs of issuance, bond insurance premiums and other related costs. Under the Program, the Issuer will enter into a Repayment Agreement and a Pledge Agreement with the Administration (respectively, the "Repayment Agreement" and the "Pledge Agreement"). The Issuer also will execute and deliver in connection with the issuance of the Bonds and the Program any additional documents, agreements, instruments and certificates requested by the Administration (which, together with the Repayment Agreement and the Pledge Agreement are herein referred to as the "Program Documents"). The Program Documents shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as shall be approved by the Mayor and acceptable to the Administration.


(g)       Because this Resolution is being adopted before the details of the Administration Financing which is funding the Loan to be made by the Administration to the Issuer under the Program have been finalized, the Mayor is hereby authorized to make such changes to the amount and form of the Bonds, including insertions therein or additions or deletions thereto, as may be necessary or appropriate to conform the terms of the Bonds to the terms of the financing to be provided to the Issuer under the Program. Without limiting the foregoing, it is presently contemplated that the Loan will be in an amount not to exceed the $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount hereby authorized, subject to final approval by the Administration; accordingly, the Mayor is specifically authorized:


(i) to make changes to the principal amount of the Bonds in order to reflect the final principal of the Loan not to exceed $2,000,000 as approved by the Administration and accepted by the Issuer, (ii) to authorize and approve an interest rate or rates and payment schedule reflecting the principal and interest payments with respect to the Bonds but not to exceed the maximum rate of interest to be borne by the Bonds as set forth in subsection (d) above.

(h)       This borrowing is in conformance with and does not exceed any and all applicable debt limitations under the Charter.

Section 2. Execution. The Bonds and the Program Documents shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the manual or facsimile signature of the Mayor, and the seal of the Issuer shall be affixed thereto or reproduced thereon and attested by the manual signature of the Town Clerk of the Issuer. In the event any official whose signature appears on any of the Bonds or the Program Documents shall cease to be an official prior to the delivery of the Bonds or the Program Documents, or, in the event any official whose signature appears on any of the Bonds or the Program Documents becomes an officer after the date of the issue, the Bonds or Program Documents shall nevertheless be valid and binding obligations of the Issuer in accordance with their terms. The Mayor is hereby authorized, empowered and directed to complete the applicable form of the Bonds or the Program Documents and to make modifications, deletions, corrections or other changes thereto in any manner which the Mayor, in the Mayor's discretion, shall deem necessary or appropriate to complete the issuance and sale of the Bonds and the execution and delivery of the Program Documents, as will not alter the substance thereof. The execution of the Bonds and the Program Documents by the Mayor shall be conclusive evidence of the Mayor's approval of the form and substance thereof.


Section 3. Registration of Bonds. The Town Clerk shall act as registrar for the Bonds and shall maintain registration books for the registration and registration of transfer of the Bonds. No security or bond shall be required of the Town Clerk in the performance of the duties of registrar for the Bonds.


The Issuer may deem and treat the person in whose name any Bond shall be registered upon the books of the Issuer as the absolute owner of such Bond, whether such Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal, premium, if any, of and interest on such Bond and for all other purposes.


Section 4. Prepayment. The Bonds are being issued in connection with the Program and will secure payment of the Administration's Bonds, which are being issued by the Administration to provide funds to purchase the Bonds from the Issuer. The Repayment Agreement limits the right of the Issuer to prepay the Bonds in accordance with restrictions upon the right of the Administration to redeem the Administration's Bonds. Accordingly, the Issuer may prepay the Bonds only in accordance with the provisions of the Repayment Agreement and the terms governing prepayments as set forth in the Bonds.


Section 5. Replacement of Mutilated, Lost, Stolen, or Destroyed Bonds. In case any Bond (a "Bond" being, for purposes of this Section, any one of the Bonds) shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may cause to be executed and delivered a new Bond of like date and tenor and bearing the same or a different number, in exchange and substitution for each Bond mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, upon the owner paying the reasonable expenses and charges of the Issuer in connection therewith and, in the case of any Bond being destroyed, lost or stolen, upon the owner filing with the Issuer evidence satisfactory to it that such Bond was destroyed, lost or stolen, and furnishing the Issuer with indemnity satisfactory to it. Any Bond so issued in substitution for a Bond so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen: (i) may be typewritten, printed or otherwise reproduced in a manner acceptable to the Administration, and (ii) shall constitute an original contractual obligation on the part of the Issuer under this Resolution whether or not the Bond in exchange for which said new Bond is issued shall at any later date be presented for payment and such payment shall be enforceable by anyone, and any such new Bond shall be equally and proportionately entitled to the benefits of this Resolution with all other like Bonds, in the manner and to the extent provided herein.

Section 7. Covenants. The Issuer covenants with the Administration and for the benefit of the owners from time to time of the Bonds, that so long as the bonds or installments of principal thereunder shall remain outstanding and unpaid:


(a)        The Issuer will duly and punctually pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administration the principal of the Bonds, premium (if any) and interest accruing thereon, at the dates and places and in the manner mentioned in the Bonds from unlimited ad valorem taxes in the event that available funds are inadequate to make such payment.
