Subject to the adjustments permitted pursuant to Section 8 hereof, Bonds
maturing on or before April 1, 2036 shall mature without option of prior redemption and
Bonds maturing April 1, 2037 and thereafter, shall be subject to redemption prior to
maturity at the option of the County on April 1, 2036 and thereafter, as a whole or in part
at any time at the redemption price of par plus accrued interest to the redemption date.
If less than all the Bonds shall be called for redemption, the maturities to be redeemed
shall be designated by the Governing Body, in its discretion. If less than all of the Bonds
within a single maturity shall be called for redemption, the interests within the maturity to
be redeemed shall be selected as follows:
(i)
if the Bonds are being held under a Book-Entry System by DTC, or a
successor Depository, the Bonds to be redeemed shall be determined by DTC, or such
successor Depository, by lot or such other manner as DTC, or such successor
Depository, shall determine; or
(ii)
if the Bonds are not being held under a Book-Entry System by DTC, or a
successor Depository, the Bonds within the maturity to be redeemed shall be selected by
the Registration Agent by lot or such other random manner as the Registration Agent in
its discretion shall determine.
(d)
Pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the County Mayor is authorized to sell the
Bonds, or any maturities thereof, as term bonds with mandatory redemption requirements
corresponding to the maturities set forth herein or as determined by the County Mayor.
In the event any or all the Bonds are sold as term bonds, the County shall redeem term
bonds on redemption dates corresponding to the maturity dates set forth herein, in
aggregate principal amounts equal to the maturity amounts established pursuant to
Section 8 hereof for each redemption date, as such maturity amounts may be adjusted
pursuant to Section 8 hereof, at a price of par plus accrued interest thereon to the date of
redemption. The term bonds to be redeemed within a single maturity shall be selected in
the manner described in subsection (b) above.
At its option, to be exercised on or before the forty-fifth (45th) day next preceding
any such mandatory redemption date, the County may (i) deliver to the Registration Agent
for cancellation Bonds to be redeemed, in any aggregate principal amount desired, and/or
(ii) receive a credit in respect of its redemption obligation under this mandatory
redemption provision for any Bonds of the maturity to be redeemed which prior to said

Page 14

July 13, 2026

date have been purchased or redeemed (otherwise than through the operation of this
mandatory sinking fund redemption provision) and canceled by the Registration Agent
and not theretofore applied as a credit against any redemption obligation under this
mandatory sinking fund provision. Each Bond so delivered or previously purchased or
redeemed shall be credited by the Registration Agent at 100% of the principal amount
thereof on the obligation of the County on such payment date and any excess shall be
credited on future redemption obligations in chronological order, and the principal amount
of Bonds to be redeemed by operation of this mandatory sinking fund provision shall be
accordingly reduced. The County shall on or before the forty-fifth (45th) day next
preceding each payment date furnish the Registration Agent with its certificate indicating
whether or not and to what extent the provisions of clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection
are to be availed of with respect to such payment and confirm that funds for the balance
of the next succeeding prescribed payment will be paid on or before the next succeeding
payment date.
(e)
Notice of call for redemption, whether optional or mandatory, shall be given
by the Registration Agent on behalf of the County not less than 20 nor more than 60 days
prior to the date fixed for redemption by sending an appropriate notice to the registered
owners of the Bonds to be redeemed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at the
addresses shown on the Bond registration records of the Registration Agent as of the
date of the notice; but neither failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any such notice
so mailed shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption of any of the
Bonds for which proper notice was given. The notice may state that it is conditioned upon
the deposit of moneys in an amount equal to the amount necessary to effect the
redemption with the Registration Agent no later than the redemption date (“Conditional
Redemption”). As long as DTC, or a successor Depository, is the registered owner of the
Bonds, all redemption notices shall be mailed by the Registration Agent to DTC, or such
successor Depository, as the registered owner of the Bonds, as and when above
provided, and neither the County nor the Registration Agent shall be responsible for
mailing notices of redemption to DTC Participants or Beneficial Owners. Failure of DTC,
or any successor Depository, to provide notice to any DTC Participant or Beneficial Owner
will not affect the validity of such redemption. The Registration Agent shall mail said
notices as and when directed by the County pursuant to written instructions from an
authorized representative of the County (other than for a mandatory sinking fund
redemption, notices of which shall be given on the dates provided herein) given at least
forty-five (45) days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter notice period shall be
satisfactory to the Registration Agent). From and after the redemption date, all Bonds
called for redemption shall cease to bear interest if funds are available at the office of the
Registration Agent for the payment thereof and if notice has been duly provided as set
forth herein. In the case of a Conditional Redemption, the failure of the County to make
funds available in part or in whole on or before the redemption date shall not constitute
an event of default, and the Registration Agent shall give immediate notice to the
Depository or the affected Bondholders that the redemption did not occur and that the
Bonds called for redemption and not so paid remain outstanding.
(f)
The County Mayor is hereby authorized and directed to appoint the
Registration Agent for the Bonds and the Registration Agent so appointed is authorized
and directed to maintain Bond registration records with respect to the Bonds, to
authenticate and deliver the Bonds as provided herein, either at original issuance or upon
transfer, to effect transfers of the Bonds, to give all notices of redemption as required
herein, to make all payments of principal and interest with respect to the Bonds as
provided herein, to cancel and destroy Bonds which have been paid at maturity or upon
earlier redemption or submitted for exchange or transfer, to furnish the County at least
annually a certificate of destruction with respect to Bonds canceled and destroyed, and
to furnish the County at least annually an audit confirmation of Bonds paid, Bonds
outstanding and payments made with respect to interest on the Bonds. The County
Mayor is hereby authorized to execute, and the County Clerk is hereby authorized to

Page 15

July 13, 2026

attest such written agreement between the County and the Registration Agent as they
shall deem necessary and proper with respect to the obligations, duties and rights of the
Registration Agent. The payment of all reasonable fees and expenses of the Registration
Agent for the discharge of its duties and obligations hereunder or under any such
agreement is hereby authorized and directed.
(g)
The Bonds shall be payable, both principal and interest, in lawful money of
the United States of America at the main office of the Registration Agent. The
Registration Agent shall make all interest payments with respect to the Bonds by check
or draft on each interest payment date directly to the registered owners as shown on the
Bond registration records maintained by the Registration Agent as of the close of
business on the fifteenth day of the month next preceding the interest payment date (the
“Regular Record Date”) by depositing said payment in the United States mail, postage
prepaid, addressed to such owners at their addresses shown on said Bond registration
records, without, except for final payment, the presentation or surrender of such
registered Bonds, and all such payments shall discharge the obligations of the County in
respect of such Bonds to the extent of the payments so made. Payment of principal of
and premium, if any, on the Bonds shall be made upon presentation and surrender of
such Bonds to the Registration Agent as the same shall become due and payable. All
rates of interest specified herein shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty
(360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each. In the event the
Bonds are no longer registered in the name of DTC, or a successor Depository, if
requested by the Owner of at least $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the
Bonds, payment of interest on such Bonds shall be paid by wire transfer to a bank within
the continental United States or deposited to a designated account if such account is
maintained with the Registration Agent and written notice of any such election and
designated account is given to the Registration Agent prior to the record date.
(h)
Any interest on any Bond that is payable but is not punctually paid or duly
provided for on any interest payment date (hereinafter “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the registered owner on the relevant Regular Record Date; and,
in lieu thereof, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the County to the persons in whose
names the Bonds are registered at the close of business on a date (the “Special Record
Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following
manner: the County shall notify the Registration Agent in writing of the amount of
Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Bond and the date of the proposed
payment, and at the same time the County shall deposit with the Registration Agent an
amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such
Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Registration Agent for
such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to
be held in trust for the benefit of the persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this
Section provided. Thereupon, not less than ten (10) days after the receipt by the
Registration Agent of the notice of the proposed payment, the Registration Agent shall fix
a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which Date shall be
not more than fifteen (15) nor less than ten (10) days prior to the date of the proposed
payment to the registered owners. The Registration Agent shall promptly notify the
County of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the County,
not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special Record Date, shall cause notice of the
proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be
mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each registered owner at the address thereof as it
appears in the Bond registration records maintained by the Registration Agent as of the
date of such notice. Nothing contained in this Section or in the Bonds shall impair any
statutory or other rights in law or in equity of any registered owner arising as a result of
the failure of the County to punctually pay or duly provide for the payment of principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds when due.

(i)
The Bonds are transferable only by presentation to the Registration Agent
by the registered owner, or his legal representative duly authorized in writing, of the
registered Bond(s) to be transferred with the form of assignment on the reverse side
thereof completed in full and signed with the name of the registered owner as it appears
upon the face of the Bond(s) accompanied by appropriate documentation necessary to
prove the legal capacity of any legal representative of the registered owner. Upon receipt
of the Bond(s) in such form and with such documentation, if any, the Registration Agent
shall issue a new Bond or the Bond to the assignee(s) in $5,000 denominations, or
integral multiples thereof, as requested by the registered owner requesting transfer. The
Registration Agent shall not be required to transfer or exchange any Bond during the
period commencing on a Regular or Special Record Date and ending on the
corresponding interest payment date of such Bond, nor to transfer or exchange any Bond
after the publication of notice calling such Bond for redemption has been made, nor to
transfer or exchange any Bond during the period following the receipt of instructions from
the County to call such Bond for redemption; provided, the Registration Agent, at its
option, may make transfers after any of said dates. No charge shall be made to any
registered owner for the privilege of transferring any Bond, provided that any transfer tax
relating to such transaction shall be paid by the registered owner requesting transfer.
The person in whose name any Bond shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded
as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes and neither the County nor the Registration
Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary whether or not any payments due on
the Bonds shall be overdue. The Bonds, upon surrender to the Registration Agent, may,
at the option of the registered owner, be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal
amount of the Bonds of the same maturity in any authorized denomination or
denominations.
(j)
The Bonds shall be executed in such manner as may be prescribed by
applicable law, in the name, and on behalf, of the County with the manual or facsimile
signature of the County Mayor and with the official seal, or a facsimile thereof, of the
County impressed or imprinted thereon and attested by the manual or facsimile signature
of the County Clerk.
(k)
Except as otherwise provided in this resolution, the Bonds shall be
registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, which will act as securities
depository for the Bonds. References in this Section to a Bond or the Bonds shall be
construed to mean the Bond or the Bonds that are held under the Book-Entry System.
One Bond for each maturity shall be issued to DTC and immobilized in its custody. A
Book-Entry System shall be employed, evidencing ownership of the Bonds in authorized
denominations, with transfers of beneficial ownership effected on the records of DTC and
the DTC Participants pursuant to rules and procedures established by DTC.
Each DTC Participant shall be credited in the records of DTC with the amount of
such DTC Participant's interest in the Bonds. Beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds
may be purchased by or through DTC Participants. The holders of these beneficial
ownership interests are hereinafter referred to as the “Beneficial Owners.” The Beneficial
Owners shall not receive the Bonds representing their beneficial ownership interests.
The ownership interests of each Beneficial Owner shall be recorded through the records
of the DTC Participant from which such Beneficial Owner purchased its Bonds. Transfers
of ownership interests in the Bonds shall be accomplished by book entries made by DTC
and, in turn, by DTC Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. SO LONG AS
CEDE & CO., AS NOMINEE FOR DTC, IS THE REGISTERED OWNER OF THE
BONDS, THE REGISTRATION AGENT SHALL TREAT CEDE & CO., AS THE ONLY
HOLDER OF THE BONDS FOR ALL PURPOSES UNDER THIS RESOLUTION,
INCLUDING RECEIPT OF ALL PRINCIPAL OF, PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND INTEREST
ON THE BONDS, RECEIPT OF NOTICES, VOTING AND REQUESTING OR
DIRECTING THE REGISTRATION AGENT TO TAKE OR NOT TO TAKE, OR
CONSENTING TO, CERTAIN ACTIONS UNDER THIS RESOLUTION.

Page 17

July 13, 2026

Payments of principal, interest, and redemption premium, if any, with respect to
the Bonds, so long as DTC is the only owner of the Bonds, shall be paid by the
Registration Agent directly to DTC or its nominee, Cede & Co. as provided in the Letter
of Representation relating to the Bonds from the County and the Registration Agent to
DTC (the “Letter of Representation”). DTC shall remit such payments to DTC
Participants, and such payments thereafter shall be paid by DTC Participants to the
Beneficial Owners. The County and the Registration Agent shall not be responsible or
liable for payment by DTC or DTC Participants, for sending transaction statements or for
maintaining, supervising or reviewing records maintained by DTC or DTC Participants.
In the event that (1) DTC determines not to continue to act as securities depository
for the Bonds or (2) the County determines that the continuation of the Book-Entry System
of evidence and transfer of ownership of the Bonds would adversely affect their interests
or the interests of the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds, the County shall discontinue the
Book-Entry System with DTC. If the County fails to identify another qualified securities
depository to replace DTC, the County shall cause the Registration Agent to authenticate
and deliver replacement Bonds in the form of fully registered Bonds to each Beneficial
Owner. If the purchaser of the Bonds, or any series thereof, does not intend to reoffer
the Bonds to the public, then the County Mayor and the purchaser may agree that the
Bonds be issued in the form of fully-registered certificated Bonds and not utilize the
Book-Entry System.
THE COUNTY AND THE REGISTRATION AGENT SHALL NOT HAVE ANY
RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATIONS TO ANY DTC PARTICIPANT OR ANY
BENEFICIAL OWNER WITH RESPECT TO (i) THE BONDS; (ii) THE ACCURACY OF
ANY RECORDS MAINTAINED BY DTC OR ANY DTC PARTICIPANT; (iii) THE
PAYMENT BY DTC OR ANY DTC PARTICIPANT OF ANY AMOUNT DUE TO ANY
BENEFICIAL OWNER IN RESPECT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF AND INTEREST ON THE
BONDS; (iv) THE DELIVERY OR TIMELINESS OF DELIVERY BY DTC OR ANY DTC
PARTICIPANT OF ANY NOTICE DUE TO ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER THAT IS
REQUIRED OR PERMITTED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS RESOLUTION TO BE
GIVEN TO BENEFICIAL OWNERS, (v) THE SELECTION OF BENEFICIAL OWNERS
TO RECEIVE PAYMENTS IN THE EVENT OF ANY PARTIAL REDEMPTION OF THE
BONDS; OR (vi) ANY CONSENT GIVEN OR OTHER ACTION TAKEN BY DTC, OR ITS
NOMINEE, CEDE & CO., AS OWNER.
(l)
The Registration Agent is hereby authorized to take such action as may be
necessary from time to time to qualify and maintain the Bonds for deposit with DTC,
including but not limited to, wire transfers of interest and principal payments with respect
to the Bonds, utilization of electronic book entry data received from DTC in place of actual
delivery of Bonds and provision of notices with respect to Bonds registered by DTC (or
any of its designees identified to the Registration Agent) by overnight delivery, courier
service, telegram, telecopy or other similar means of communication. No such
arrangements with DTC may adversely affect the interest of any of the owners of the
Bonds, provided, however, that the Registration Agent shall not be liable with respect to
any such arrangements it may make pursuant to this section.
(m)
The Registration Agent is hereby authorized to authenticate and deliver the
Bonds to the original purchaser, upon receipt by the County of the proceeds of the sale
thereof and to authenticate and deliver Bonds in exchange for Bonds of the same principal
amount delivered for transfer upon receipt of the Bond(s) to be transferred in proper form
with proper documentation as hereinabove described. The Bonds shall not be valid for
any purpose unless authenticated by the Registration Agent by the manual signature of
an officer thereof on the certificate set forth herein on the Bond form.

(n)
In case any Bond shall become mutilated, or be lost, stolen, or destroyed,
the County, in its discretion, shall issue, and the Registration Agent, upon written direction
from the County, shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor, amount, maturity
and date, in exchange and substitution for, and upon the cancellation of, the mutilated
Bond, or in lieu of and in substitution for such lost, stolen or destroyed Bond, or if any
such Bond shall have matured or shall be about to mature, instead of issuing a substituted
Bond the County may pay or authorize payment of such Bond without surrender thereof.
In every case the applicant shall furnish evidence satisfactory to the County and the
Registration Agent of the destruction, theft or loss of such Bond, and indemnity
satisfactory to the County and the Registration Agent; and the County may charge the
applicant for the issue of such new Bond an amount sufficient to reimburse the County
for the expense incurred by it in the issue thereof.
Section 5. Source of Payment. The Bonds shall be payable from unlimited ad
valorem taxes to be levied on all taxable property within the County. For the prompt
payment of the debt service on the Bonds, the full faith and credit of the County are hereby
irrevocably pledged.
Section 6. Form of Bonds. The Bonds shall be in substantially the following form,
the omissions to be appropriately completed when the Bonds are prepared and delivered:

Bond on each interest payment date directly to the registered owner hereof shown on the
Bond registration records maintained by the Registration Agent as of the close of
business on the fifteenth day of the month next preceding the interest payment date (the
“Regular Record Date”) by check or draft mailed to such owner at such owner's address
shown on said Bond registration records, without, except for final payment, the
presentation or surrender of this Bond, and all such payments shall discharge the
obligations of the County to the extent of the payments so made. Any such interest not
so punctually paid or duly provided for on any interest payment date shall forthwith cease
to be payable to the registered owner on the relevant Regular Record Date; and, in lieu
thereof, such defaulted interest shall be payable to the person in whose name this Bond
is registered at the close of business on the date (the “Special Record Date”) for payment
of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Registration Agent, notice of which shall be
given to the owners of the Bonds of the issue of which this Bond is one not less than ten
(10) days prior to such Special Record Date. Payment of principal of this Bond shall be
made when due upon presentation and surrender of this Bond to the Registration Agent.
Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Resolution, as hereinafter defined,
this Bond shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository
Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”), which will act as securities depository for
the Bonds of the series of which this Bond is one. One Bond for each maturity of the
Bonds shall be issued to DTC and immobilized in its custody. A book-entry system shall
be employed, evidencing ownership of the Bonds in $5,000 denominations, or multiples
thereof, with transfers of beneficial ownership effected on the records of DTC and the
DTC Participants, as defined in the Resolution, pursuant to rules and procedures
established by DTC. So long as Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC, is the registered owner
of the Bonds, the County and the Registration Agent shall treat Cede & Co., as the only
owner of the Bonds for all purposes under the Resolution, including receipt of all principal
of and interest on the Bonds, receipt of notices, voting and requesting or taking or not
taking, or consenting to, certain actions hereunder. Payments of principal and interest
with respect to the Bonds, so long as DTC is the only owner of the Bonds, shall be paid
directly to DTC or its nominee, Cede & Co. DTC shall remit such payments to DTC
Participants, and such payments thereafter shall be paid by DTC Participants to the
Beneficial Owners, as defined in the Resolution. Neither the County nor the Registration
Agent shall be responsible or liable for payment by DTC or DTC Participants, for sending
transaction statements or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing records maintained
by DTC or DTC Participants. In the event that (1) DTC determines not to continue to act
as securities depository for the Bonds or (2) the County determines that the continuation
of the book-entry system of evidence and transfer of ownership of the Bonds would
adversely affect its interests or the interests of the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds, the
County may discontinue the book-entry system with DTC. If the County fails to identify
another qualified securities depository to replace DTC, the County shall cause the
Registration Agent to authenticate and deliver replacement Bonds in the form of fully
registered Bonds to each Beneficial Owner. Neither the County nor the Registration Agent
shall have any responsibility or obligations to any DTC Participant or any Beneficial

the Resolution to be given to Beneficial Owners, (v) the selection of Beneficial Owners to
receive payments in the event of any partial redemption of the Bonds; or (vi) any consent
given or other action taken by DTC, or its nominee, Cede & Co., as owner.
Bonds of the issue of which this Bond is one maturing on or before April 1, 2036
shall mature without option of prior redemption and Bonds maturing April 1, 2037 and
thereafter, shall be subject to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the County on
April 1, 2036 and thereafter, as a whole or in part at any time at the redemption price of
par plus accrued interest to the redemption date.
If less than all the Bonds shall be called for redemption, the maturities to be
redeemed shall be designated by the Board of County Commissioners of the County, in
its discretion. If less than all the principal amount of the Bonds of a maturity shall be called
for redemption, the interests within the maturity to be redeemed shall be selected as
follows:
(i)
if the Bonds are being held under a Book-Entry System by DTC, or a
successor Depository, the amount of the interest of each DTC Participant in the Bonds to
be redeemed shall be determined by DTC, or such successor Depository, by lot or such
other manner as DTC, or such successor Depository, shall determine; or
(ii)
if the Bonds are not being held under a Book-Entry System by DTC, or a
successor Depository, the Bonds within the maturity to be redeemed shall be selected by
the Registration Agent by lot or such other random manner as the Registration Agent in
its discretion shall determine.
[Subject to the credit hereinafter provided, the County shall redeem Bonds
maturing ____________________________________________ on the redemption
dates set forth below opposite the maturity dates, in aggregate principal amounts equal
to the respective dollar amounts set forth below opposite the respective redemption dates
at a price of par plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption. DTC, as
securities depository for the series of Bonds of which this Bond is one, or such Person as
shall then be serving as the securities depository for the Bonds, shall determine the
interest of each Participant in the Bonds to be redeemed using its procedures generally
in use at that time. If DTC, or another securities depository is no longer serving as
securities depository for the Bonds, the Bonds to be redeemed within a maturity shall be
selected by the Registration Agent by lot or such other random manner as the Registration
Agent in its discretion shall select. The dates of redemption and principal amount of
Bonds to be redeemed on said dates are as follows:

At its option, to be exercised on or before the forty-fifth (45th) day next preceding
any such redemption date, the County may (i) deliver to the Registration Agent for
cancellation Bonds to be redeemed, in any aggregate principal amount desired, and/or
(ii) receive a credit in respect of its redemption obligation under this mandatory
redemption provision for any Bonds of the maturity to be redeemed which prior to said
date have been purchased or redeemed (otherwise than through the operation of this
mandatory sinking fund redemption provision) and canceled by the Registration Agent
and not theretofore applied as a credit against any redemption obligation under this
mandatory sinking fund provision. Each Bond so delivered or previously purchased or
redeemed shall be credited by the Registration Agent at 100% of the principal amount
thereof on the obligation of the County on such payment date and any excess shall be
credited on future redemption obligations in chronological order, and the principal amount
of Bonds to be redeemed by operation of this mandatory sinking fund provision shall be
accordingly reduced. The County shall on or before the forty-fifth (45th) day next
preceding each payment date furnish the Registration Agent with its certificate indicating
whether or not and to what extent the provisions of clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection
are to be availed of with respect to such payment and confirm that funds for the balance
of the next succeeding prescribed payment will be paid on or before the next succeeding
payment date.]
Notice of call for redemption[, whether optional or mandatory,] shall be given by
the Registration Agent not less than 20 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for
redemption by sending an appropriate notice to the registered owners of the Bonds to be
redeemed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at the addresses shown on the Bond
registration records of the Registration Agent as of the date of the notice; but neither
failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any such notice so mailed shall affect the
sufficiency of the proceedings for the redemption of any of the Bonds for which proper
notice was given. The notice may state that it is conditioned upon the deposit of moneys
in an amount equal to the amount necessary to effect the redemption with the Registration
Agent no later than the redemption date (“Conditional Redemption”). As long as DTC, or
a successor Depository, is the registered owner of the Bonds, all redemption notices shall
be mailed by the Registration Agent to DTC, or such successor Depository, as the
registered owner of the Bonds, as and when above provided, and neither the County nor
the Registration Agent shall be responsible for mailing notices of redemption to DTC
Participants or Beneficial Owners. Failure of DTC, or any successor Depository, to
provide notice to any DTC Participant will not affect the validity of such redemption. From
and after any redemption date, all Bonds called for redemption shall cease to bear interest
if funds are available at the office of the Registration Agent for the payment thereof and if
notice has been duly provided as set forth in the Resolution, as hereafter defined.]
This Bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person or by such
owner’s attorney duly authorized in writing at the principal corporate trust office of the
Registration Agent set forth on the front side hereof, but only in the manner, subject to
limitations and upon payment of the charges provided in the Resolution, as hereafter
defined, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Bond. Upon such transfer a new
Bond or Bonds of authorized denominations of the same maturity and interest rate for the
same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor.
The person in whose name this Bond is registered shall be deemed and regarded as the
absolute owner thereof for all purposes and neither the County nor the Registration Agent
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary whether or not any payments due on the
Bond shall be overdue. Bonds, upon surrender to the Registration Agent, may, at the
option of the registered owner thereof, be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal

Page 22

Section 7. Levy of Tax. The County, through its Governing Body, shall annually levy and
collect a tax upon all taxable property within the County, in addition to all other taxes
authorized by law, sufficient to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due, and
for that purpose there is hereby levied a direct annual tax in such amount as may be
found necessary each year to pay principal and interest coming due on the Bonds in said
year. Principal and interest falling due at any time when there are insufficient funds from
this tax levy on hand shall be paid from the current funds of the County and
reimbursement therefor shall be made out of the taxes hereby provided to be levied when

extent of any appropriations from other funds, taxes and revenues of the County to the
payment of debt service on the Bonds.

The Bonds shall be offered by competitive sale, in one or more series, as required by law
at a price of not less than ninety-nine percent (99%) of par exclusive of original issue
discount, as a whole or in part, from time to time, as shall be determined by the County
Mayor in consultation with the Municipal Advisor. The County Mayor is authorized to
award the Bonds to the bidder whose bid results in the lowest true interest cost to the
County, provided the rate or rates on none of the Bonds exceed the maximum interest
rate permitted by applicable law at the time of the sale of the Bonds or any series thereof.

the County, and no further action of the Governing Body with respect thereto shall be
required.
The County Mayor is further authorized with respect to Bonds, or any series thereof:
change the dated date of the Bonds, to a date other than the date of issuance of
the Bonds;
to designate the Bonds, or any series thereof, to a designation other than “General
Obligation Bonds” and to specify the series designation of the Bonds, or any series
thereof;

Page 25

July 13, 2026

change the first interest payment date on the Bonds or any series thereof to a date
other than October 1, 2026, provided that such date is not later than twelve months from
the dated date of such series of Bonds;
adjust the principal and interest payment dates and the maturity amounts of the
Bonds, or any series thereof, provided that (A) the total principal amount of all series of
the Bonds does not exceed the total amount of Bonds authorized herein; (B) the final
maturity date of each series shall not exceed the 21st fiscal year following the fiscal year
of such series; (C) the principal payment dates and amounts of any series of Bonds shall
be structured so that the resulting debt service on such series of Bonds is substantially
level beginning no later than the third fiscal year following the issue date of such series of
Bonds;
change the terms upon which the Bonds will be subject to redemption at the option
of the County; and
sell the Bonds, or any series thereof, or any maturities thereof as Term Bonds with

simultaneously with any other bonds or notes authorized by resolution or resolutions of
the Governing Body. The County Mayor is further authorized to sell the Bonds, or any
series thereof, as a single issue of bonds with any other bonds with substantially similar
terms authorized by resolution or resolutions of the Governing Body, in one or more series
as he shall deem to be advantageous to the County and in doing so, the County Mayor is
authorized to change the designation of the Bonds to a designation other than “General
Obligation Bonds”; provided, however, that the total aggregate principal amount of
combined bonds to be sold does not exceed the total aggregate principal amount of
Bonds authorized by this resolution or bonds authorized by any other resolution or
resolutions adopted by the Governing Body.
The form of the Bond set forth in Section 6 hereof, shall be conformed to reflect
any changes made pursuant to this Section 8.
The County Mayor and County Clerk are authorized to cause the Bonds, in bookentry form (except as otherwise permitted herein), to be authenticated and delivered by
the Registration Agent to the successful bidder and to execute, publish, and deliver all
certificates and documents, including an official statement and closing certificates, as they
shall deem necessary in connection with the sale and delivery of the Bonds. The County
Mayor is hereby authorized to enter into a contract with the Municipal Advisor, for
Municipal Advisory services in connection with the sale of the Bonds and to enter into a
contract with Bass, Berry & Sims PLC to serve as bond counsel in connection with the
Bonds, in forms approved by the County Mayor as evidenced by his execution thereof.
Section 9. Disposition of Bond Proceeds.
(a)
The proceeds of the sale of each series of the Bonds shall be paid to the
County Trustee to be deposited with a financial institution regulated by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar or successor federal agency in one or more
special funds, each known as (the “Construction Fund”), or such other designation as
shall be determined by the County Mayor to be kept separate and apart from all other
funds of the County. The funds in the Construction Fund shall be disbursed solely to (i)
pay costs of the Projects or reimburse the County for the prior payment thereof and (ii)
pay costs of issuance of the Bonds. Moneys in the Construction Fund shall be invested
as directed by the County Trustee in such investments as shall be permitted by applicable
law and the earnings thereon shall either (i) be retained in the Construction Fund and

Page 26

July 13, 2026

applied to the purposes described above, or (ii) transferred to the County’s debt service
fund and applied to payment of interest on the Bonds, as directed by the County Mayor
and in either case in a manner consistent the terms of the Federal Tax Certificate and
Agreement. Any funds remaining in the Construction Fund following completion of the
Projects shall be deposited to the applicable County Debt Service Fund to be used to pay
debt service on the Bonds, subject to any modifications by the Governing Body.
(b)
In accordance with state law, the various department heads responsible for
the fund or funds receiving and disbursing funds are hereby authorized to amend the
budget of the proper fund or funds for the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of the
Bonds, including bond proceeds, accrued interest, reoffering premium, and other receipts
from this transaction. The department heads responsible for the fund or funds are further
authorized to amend the proper budgets to reflect the appropriations and expenditures of
the receipts authorized by this resolution.
Section 10. Official Statement; Continuing Disclosure Agreement.
The officers of the County are hereby authorized and directed to provide for the
preparation and distribution of a Preliminary Official Statement and Official Statement
describing the Bonds in accordance with the requirements of Rule 15c2-12(e)(3) of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Rule”). The officers of the County are
authorized, on behalf of the County, to deem the Preliminary Official Statement and the
Official Statement in final form, each to be final as of its date within the meaning of the
Rule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Official Statement is required to be prepared if
the Rule does not require it.
The County hereby covenants and agrees that it will provide annual financial
information and material event notices if and as required by the Rule. The County Mayor
is authorized to execute at the Closing of the sale of the Bonds a continuing disclosure
agreement satisfying the requirements of the Rule. Failure of the County to comply with
the continuing disclosure agreement shall not be a default hereunder, but any such failure
shall entitle the owner or owners of any of the Bonds to take such actions and to initiate
such proceedings as shall be necessary and appropriate to cause the County to comply
with the agreement, including the remedies of mandamus and specific performance.
Section 11. Federal Tax Matters.
The Bonds will be issued as federally tax-exempt obligations. The County hereby
covenants that it will not use, or permit the use of, any proceeds of the Bonds in a manner
that would cause the Bonds to be subjected to treatment under Section 148 of the Code,
and applicable regulations thereunder, as an “arbitrage bond”. To that end, the County
shall comply with applicable regulations adopted under said Section 148. The County
further covenants with the registered owners from time to time of the Bonds that it will,
throughout the term of the Bonds and through the date that the final rebate, if any, must
be made to the United States in accordance with Section 148 of the Code, comply with
the provisions of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code and all regulations
proposed and promulgated thereunder that must be satisfied in order that interest on the
Bonds shall be and continue to be excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes under Section 103 of the Code.
The appropriate officers of the County are authorized and directed, on behalf of
the County, to execute and deliver all such certificates and documents that may be
required of the County in order to comply with the provisions of this Section related to the
issuance of the Bonds, including a federal tax certificate and agreement governing
(among other things) the application of the sale proceeds of the Bonds and the investment
earnings thereon (the “Federal Tax Certificate and Agreement”).

It is reasonably expected that the County will reimburse itself for certain
expenditures made by it in connection with the Projects by issuing the Bonds. This
resolution shall be placed in the minutes of the Governing Body and shall be made
available for inspection by the general public at the office of the Governing Body. This
resolution constitutes a declaration of official intent under Treas. Reg. §1.150-2.
Section 12. Discharge and Satisfaction of Bonds. If the County shall pay and
discharge the indebtedness evidenced by any of the Bonds in any one or more of the
following ways, to wit:
(a)
By paying or causing to be paid, by deposit of sufficient funds as and when
required with the Registration Agent, the principal of and interest on such Bonds as and
when the same become due and payable;
(b)
By depositing or causing to be deposited with any trust company or financial
institution whose deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or
similar federal agency and which has trust powers (“an Agent”; which Agent may be the
Registration Agent) in trust or escrow, on or before the date of maturity or redemption,
sufficient money or Federal Obligations, as hereafter defined, the principal of and interest
on which, when due and payable, will provide sufficient moneys to pay or redeem such
Bonds and to pay interest thereon when due until the maturity or redemption date
(provided, if such Bonds are to be redeemed prior to maturity thereof, proper notice of
such redemption shall have been given or adequate provision shall have been made for
the giving of such notice);
(c)

By delivering such Bonds to the Registration Agent, for cancellation by it;

and if the County shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by
the County with respect to such Bonds, or make adequate provision therefor, and by
resolution of the Governing Body instruct any such Agent to pay amounts when and as
required to the Registration Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on such
Bonds when due, then and in that case the indebtedness evidenced by such Bonds shall
be discharged and satisfied and all covenants, agreements and obligations of the County
to the holders of such Bonds shall be fully discharged and satisfied and shall thereupon
cease, terminate and become void.
If the County shall pay and discharge the indebtedness evidenced by any of the
Bonds in the manner provided in either clause (a) or clause (b) above, then the registered
owners thereof shall thereafter be entitled only to payment out of the money or Federal
Obligations deposited as aforesaid.
Except as otherwise provided in this Section, neither Federal Obligations nor
moneys deposited with the Registration Agent pursuant to this Section nor principal or
interest payments on any such Federal Obligations shall be withdrawn or used for any
purpose other than, and shall be held in trust for, the payment of the principal and interest
on said Bonds; provided that any cash received from such principal or interest payments
on such Federal Obligations deposited with the Registration Agent, (A) to the extent such
cash will not be required at any time for such purpose, shall be paid over to the County
as received by the Registration Agent and (B) to the extent such cash will be required for
such purpose at a later date, shall, to the extent practicable, be reinvested in Federal
Obligations maturing at times and in amounts sufficient to pay when due the principal
and interest to become due on said Bonds on or prior to such redemption date or maturity
date thereof, as the case may be, and interest earned from such reinvestments shall be
paid over to the County, as received by the Registration Agent. For the purposes of this
Section, Federal Obligations shall mean direct obligations of, or obligations, the principal
of and interest on which are guaranteed by, the United States of America, which bonds
or other obligations shall not be subject to redemption prior to their maturity other than at
the option of the registered owner thereof.

the Property at the agreed upon price subject to the terms of the Purchase
and Sale Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Courthouse Task Force was established to analyze judicial facility
needs and current and future staffing, workload, and facility needs
necessary to determine whether needs support the construction of a new

with the first formation meeting to be held in October 2026, with subsequent meeting
dates and times to be discussed and set at the first scheduled meeting. Announcements

AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE, SALE, AND PAYMENT OF INTEREST-BEARING
2026-27 GENERAL PURPOSE SCHOOL FUND TAX ANTICIPATION NOTES

WHEREAS, the Governing Body of Williamson County, Tennessee, (the “Local
Government”) has determined that it is necessary and desirable to borrow
a limited amount of funds to meet appropriations made for the General
Purpose School Fund (the “Fund”) for the current fiscal year, being July 1,
2026, through June 30, 2027, inclusive, (the “Fiscal Year”), in anticipation
of the collection of taxes and revenues for the Fund during the Fiscal Year;
and
WHEREAS, under the provisions of Part I, IV, and VIII of Title 9, Chapter 21, Tennessee
Code Annotated (the “Act”), local governments in Tennessee are authorized
to issue and sell interest-bearing tax anticipation notes in amounts not
exceeding sixty percent (60%) of the Fund appropriation for the Fiscal Year
upon the approval of the State Director of Local Finance; and
WHEREAS, the Governing Body finds that it is advantageous to the Local Government
to authorize the issuance and sale of tax anticipation notes;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Governing Body of Williamson County,
Tennessee, as follows:
Section 1.That, for the purpose of providing funds to meet certain appropriations for the
Fiscal Year, the County Mayor of the Local Government is hereby authorized
in accordance with the terms of this Resolution to issue and sell interestbearing tax anticipation notes in a principal amount not to exceed Thirteen
Million Dollars ($13,000,000) (the “Notes”) by interfund loan from the School
Debt Service Fund or such other fund designated by the County Mayor of the
Local Government, or at either a competitive public sale or at a private
negotiated sale upon approval of the State Director of Local Finance pursuant
to the terms, provisions, and conditions permitted by law. The Notes shall be
designated “General Purpose School Fund Tax Anticipation Notes, Series
2027"; shall be numbered serially from 1 upwards; shall be dated as of the date
of issuance; shall be in denomination(s) as agreed upon with the purchaser;

interest at a rate or rates not to exceed the legal limit provided by law.
Section 2.That, the sum of the principal amount of the Notes, together with the principal
amount or amounts of any prior tax anticipation notes issued during the Fiscal
Year, does not exceed sixty percent (60%) of the Fund appropriation for the
Fiscal Year.
Section 3.That, the Notes may be renewed from time to time and money may be borrowed
from time to time for the payment of any indebtedness evidenced by the Notes;
provided, that the Notes and any renewal notes shall mature and be paid in full
without renewal on or before the end of the Fiscal Year. If the Local
Government overestimates the amount of taxes and revenue collected for the
Fiscal Year and it becomes impossible to retire the Notes and all renewal notes

Page 66

July 13, 2026

prior to the close of the Fiscal Year, then the Local Government shall apply to
the State Director of Local Finance within ten (10) days prior to the close of the
Fiscal year for permission to issue funding bonds to cover the unpaid Notes in
the manner provided by Title 9, Chapter 11 of Tennessee Code Annotated or
as otherwise provided for in a manner approved by the State Director of Local
Finance.
Section 4.That, the Notes shall be secured solely by the receipt of taxes and revenues by
the Fund during the Fiscal Year.
Section 5.That, the Notes shall be subject to redemption at the option of the Local
Government, in whole or in part, at any time, at the principal amount and
accrued interest to the date of redemption without a premium.

Section 6.That, the Notes shall be executed in the name of the Local Government and
bear the manual signature of the County Mayor of the Local Government and
the manual signature of the County Clerk with the Local Government seal
affixed thereon; and shall be payable as to principal and interest at the office of
the County Trustee of the Local Government or the paying agent duly
appointed by the Local Government. Proceeds of the Notes shall be deposited
with the County Trustee of the Local Government and shall be paid out for the
purpose of meeting Fund appropriations made for the Fiscal Year in
anticipation of the collection of revenues and taxes pursuant to this Resolution
and as required by law.
Section 7.That, the Notes shall be in substantially the form attached hereto and shall
recite that notes are issued pursuant to Title 9, Chapter 21, Tennessee Code
Annotated.
Section 8.That the Notes shall be sold only after the receipt of the approval of the State
Director of Local Finance for the sale of the Notes.
Section 9.That the County Mayor and the County Clerk, and all other officers of the
County are hereby authorized and directed to take such actions and execute
such documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to carry out the
purposes of this Resolution.
Section 10.That, all orders or resolutions in conflict with this Resolution are hereby
repealed insofar as such conflict exists and this Resolution shall become
