Accordingly, the Refunding Bonds shall replace the Refundable Bonds which are refunded by the Refunding Bonds, and the full faith and credit of the City are pledged to the successive owners of each of the Refunding Bonds for the punctual payment of such obligations, when due. The City shall levy annually, as provided by law, a direct ad valorem tax upon all of the taxable property within the City in sufficient amount, after taking into consideration discounts taken and delinquencies that may occur in the payment of such taxes and other moneys available for the payment of debt service on the Refunding Bonds, to pay the Refunding Bonds promptly as they mature. The City covenants with the owners of the Refunding Bonds to levy such a tax annually during each year that any of the Refunding Bonds, or bonds issued to refund them, are outstanding. Section 11. Refunding Bond Insurance. The City may apply for municipal bond insurance for the Refunding Bonds, and expend Refunding Bond proceeds to pay any bond insurance premium. Section 12. Form of Refunding Bonds. The Refunding Bonds shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, with such changes as may be approved by the City Official. The Refunding Bonds may be printed or typewritten, and may be issued as one or more temporary Refunding Bonds which shall be exchangeable for definitive Refunding Bonds when definitive Refunding Bonds are available. Section 13. Execution. The Refunding Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the City with the facsimile signatures of the City Official. Section 14. Tax-Exempt Status. The City covenants to use the proceeds of the Refunding Bonds, and the facilities financed with the Refundable Bonds, and to otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code") so that interest paid on the Refunding Bonds will not be includable in gross income of the bondowners. The City specifically covenants: 14.1. to comply with the "arbitrage" provisions of Section 148 of the Code, and pay any rebates due to the United States on the gross proceeds of the Refunding Bonds; 14.2. to yield restrict and pay any rebates due to the United States on any unexpended proceeds of the Refundable Bonds; and 14.3. to operate the facilities which were financed with the proceeds of the Refundable Bonds, and any facilities which are financed with the unexpended proceeds of the Refundable Page 6 - Resolution J:\RDR\EUGENE.Cfl\ADV-REF.97\RES.DOC Bonds, so that the Refunding Bonds satisfy the requirement of Section 142(a)(1) of the Code (relating to exempt facility bonds for airports). The City Official may enter into covenants on behalf of the City to protect the tax- exempt status of the Refunding Bonds. Section 15. Escrow. The net proceeds of the Refunding Bonds shall be placed in irrevocable escrow, pursuant to the Escrow Deposit Agreement. The escrow agent or the City Official is hereby authorized to subscribe for and purchase the government obligations to be placed in the escrow, on behalf of the City. Section 16. Redemption of Refundable Bonds. Contingent solely on the issuance of the Refunding Bonds and the deposit of sufficient proceeds with the Escrow Agent, the City hereby irrevocably calls for redemption all of the then outstanding Refundable Bonds on January 1, 1998. Section 17. Defeasance. If the City: 17.1. irrevocably deposits money or noncallable Government Obligations in escrow witl.t an independent trustee or escrow agent which are calculated to be sufficient for the payment of Refunding Bonds which are to be defeased; and, 17.2. files with the escrow agency or trustee an opinion from a qualified consultant to the effect that the money and the principal and interest to be received from the Government Obligations are calculated to be sufficient, without further reinvestment, to pay the defeased Refunding Bonds when due; and, 17.3. files with the escrow agent or trustee an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel that the proposed defeasance will not cause the interest component of the Refunding Bonds to be includable in gross income under the Code; then the City shall be obligated to pay the defeased Refunding Bonds solely from the money and Government Obligations deposited with the escrow agent or trustee, and the City shall have no further obligation to pay the defeased Refunding Bonds from any source except the amounts deposited in the escrow. For purposes of this section, "Government Obligations". means direct obligations of the United States, or obligations the principal of and interest on which are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the United States.

The Bonds are "private activity bonds" but are "qualified bonds" under Section 141(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The interest on the Bonds is a preference item for purposes of computing the individual and corporate alternative minimum taxes under Section 55 of the Code. In the opinion of Bond Counsel, the interest on the Bonds is exempt from personal income taxation by the State of Oregon under present state law. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding other federal or state tax consequences arising with respect to the Bonds. NOT BANK QUALIFIED: The City has not designated the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" pursuant to Section 265(b)(3) of the Code. CERTIFICATE REGARDING INITIAL OFFERING PRICE: To provide the City with information required to enable it to comply with certain conditions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, relating to the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from the gross income of their owners, the successful bidder will be required to complete, execute and deliver to Bond Counsel (on or before three business days prior to the date of delivery of the Bonds) a certification provided by Bond Counsel as to the "issue price" of each maturity of the Bonds. In the event the successful bidder has (1) purchased the bonds for its own portfolio without intention to resell the Bonds, or (2) made a bona fide private placement of the Bonds, such certificate may be modified in a manner provided by Bond Counsel. Each bidder, by submitting its bid, agrees to complete, execute and deliver such a certificate, if its bid is accepted by the City. Failure to honor this agreement may result in the cancellation of the sale and the forfeiture of the successful bidder's good faith deposit. FORM OF BID: Bids must be for the entire amount of the Bonds, and for not less than ninety-nine percent (99%) of their principal amount, plus accrued interest to the date of delivery. Each bid, unless telecopied, must be enclosed in a sealed envelope addressed to the City, which is clearly marked as a proposal for the Bonds. The City will accept telecopied bids provided they are received by the City in care of its bond counsel Preston Gates & Ellis LLP at (503) 248-9085 (fax) on or before the sale date and time set forth in this notice. The City requests that any firm planning to telecopy a bid contact the City's financial advisor at least one business day prior to the sale.

Bids may be submitted on the bid form included in the preliminary official statement. BEST BID: The Bonds will be awarded to the responsible bidder whose proposal will result in the lowest true interest cost to the City. True interest cost will be determined by doubling the semiannual interest rate necessary to discount the debt service to October 1, 1997, and the price bid for the Bonds. Each bidder is requested to supply the total interest cost and the Page 4 - Exhibit A(l) J:\RDR\EUGENE.Cfl\ADV-REF.97\RES.DOC true interest cost that the City will pay upon the issue if the bid is accepted. The purchaser must pay accrued interest, computed on a 360-day basis, from the date of the Bonds to the date of delivery. The cost of printing the Bonds will be paid by the City.

The good faith deposit will be held by the City as security against any loss resulting from the failure of the bidder to comply with the terms of its bid. The good faith deposit will be forfeited to the City as liquidated damages in case the bidder to whom the Bonds are awarded withdraws its bid or fails to complete its purchase of the Bonds in accordance with the terms thereof: including any failure to purchase the Bonds resulting from the inability of the bidder to secure delivery of an insurance policy submitted as part of its bid for the purchase of the Bonds. If a check is used as good faith deposit, the check must accompany the bid. If a financial surety bond is used as the good faith deposit, such financial surety bond must be submitted to the City prior to the opening of the bids. The issuer of the financial surety bond must be rated in the highest rating category by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., by Standard & Poor's Corporation, or by Fitch Investors Service, Inc., and must identify the bidder whose good faith deposit is guaranteed by such financial surety bond.

If such wire transfer is not received from the successful bidder by 2:00 p.m. on October 15, 1997 the financial surety bond may be immediately drawn upon by the City to satisfy the good faith deposit requirement. The City reserves the right to cash the good faith deposit check of the successful bidder, or to retain any good faith deposit delivered by electronic wire transfer, immediately upon receipt thereof by the City. The City shall be entitled to retain for the sole and exclusive use and benefit of the City all investment earnings derived from the good faith deposit prior to the delivery of the Bonds, and in no event shall the successful bidder be entitled to any such investment earnings (whether by means of a credit or otherwise).
