must be satisfied prior to such redemption.
In addition to the mailing of the notice described above, each notice of redemption and
payment of the Redemption Price shall meet the following requirements; provided, however, the
failure to provide such further notice of redemption or to comply with the terms of this paragraph
shall not in any manner defeat the effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given
as prescribed above:
(A) Each further notice of redemption shall be sent by certified mail or overnight
delivery service or telecopy to all registered securities depositories then in the business of
holding substantial amounts of obligations of types comprising the Bonds and to two or more
national information services which disseminate notices of prepayment or redemption of
obligations such as the Bonds.
(B) Each further notice of redemption shall be sent to such other Person, if any, as
shall be required by applicable law or regulation.
The Issuer may provide that a redemption may be contingent upon the occurrence of
certain condition(s) and that if such condition(s) do not occur the notice of redemption will be
rescinded, provided notice of rescission shall be mailed in the manner described above to all
affected Bondholders as soon as practicable.
SECTION 3.04. REDEMPTION OF PORTIONS OF BONDS. Any Bond which
is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any place of payment specified in the
notice of redemption (with due endorsement by, or written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing) and the Issuer shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to the
27
Holder of such Bond, without service charge, a new Bond or Bonds, of any authorized
denomination, as requested by such Holder in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in
exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Bonds so surrendered.
SECTION 3.05. PAYMENT OF REDEEMED BONDS. Notice of redemption
having been given substantially as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed
shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified,
and from and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption
Price) such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such
Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Bonds shall be paid by the Registrar
and/or Paying Agent at the appropriate Redemption Price, plus accrued interest. All Bonds
which have been redeemed shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Registrar and shall not be
reissued.

ARTICLE IV
SECURITY; FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS; APPLICATION OF GROSS REVENUES
SECTION 4.01. BONDS NOT TO BE INDEBTEDNESS OF ISSUER. The
Bonds shall not be or constitute general obligations or indebtedness of the Issuer as "bonds"
within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory provision, but shall be special obligations of
the Issuer, payable solely from and secured by a lien upon and pledge of the Pledged Funds, in
the manner and to the extent provided in this Resolution. No Holder of any Bond shall ever have
the right to compel the exercise of any ad valorem taxing power to pay such Bond, or be entitled
to payment of such Bond from any moneys of the Issuer except from the Pledged Funds in the
manner and to the extent provided herein. The Bonds and the obligations evidenced thereby
shall not constitute a lien upon the System or any other property of the Issuer, but shall constitute
a lien only on, and shall be payable solely from, the Pledged Funds.
SECTION 4.02. SECURITY FOR BONDS. The payment of the principal of or
Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on the Bonds shall be secured forthwith equally and
ratably by a pledge of and lien upon the Pledged Funds; provided, however, a Series of Bonds
may be further secured by a Credit Facility or Bond Insurance Policy in addition to the security
provided herein; and provided further that a Series of Bonds may be secured independently of
any other Series of Bonds by the establishment of a separate subaccount in the Reserve Account
for such Series of Bonds or by not being secured in any manner by the Reserve Account as
provided in a Supplemental Resolution. Issuers of a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or
Reserve Account Letter of Credit shall be secured in accordance with the provisions hereof. In
addition, the Issuer does hereby irrevocably pledge and grant a lien upon the Pledged Funds to
the payment of the Policy Costs in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however,
such pledge and lien shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to the pledge of and lien upon
such Pledged Funds granted hereby to the Bondholders. The Issuer does hereby irrevocably
pledge the Pledged Funds to the payment of the principal of or Redemption Price, if applicable,
and interest on the Bonds in accordance with the provisions hereof. Except as otherwise
provided by Supplemental Resolution, the obligation of the Issuer to make Hedge Payments to a
Counterparty pursuant to a Qualified Hedge Agreement shall be on parity with the Bonds as to
lien on and pledge of the Pledged Funds in accordance with the terms hereof (any other
payments related to a Qualified Hedge Agreement, including fees, penalties, termination
payments and the obligation to collateralize, shall be Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer).
The Pledged Funds shall immediately be subject to the lien of this pledge without any
physical delivery thereof or further act, and the lien of this pledge shall be valid and binding as
against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract or otherwise against the Issuer.
SECTION 4.03. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS. The moneys required to be accounted
for in each of the funds, accounts and subaccounts established in this Resolution, particularly
those described in this Article IV, may be deposited in a single bank account, and funds allocated
to the various funds, accounts and subaccounts established herein may be invested in a common
investment pool, provided that adequate accounting records are maintained to reflect and control
the restricted allocation of the moneys on deposit therein and such investments for the various
purposes of such funds, accounts and subaccounts as herein provided.
29
The designation and establishment of the various funds, accounts and subaccounts in and
by this Resolution shall not be construed to require the establishment of any completely
independent, self-balancing funds as such term is commonly defined and used in governmental
accounting, but rather is intended solely to constitute an earmarking of certain revenues for
certain purposes and to establish certain priorities for application of such revenues as herein
provided.
SECTION 4.04. CONSTRUCTION FUND. The Issuer covenants and agrees to
establish a special fund to be known as the "Okaloosa County, Florida Water and Sewer System
Construction Fund," which shall be used only for payment of the Cost of a Project. Moneys in
the Construction Fund, until applied in payment of any item of the Cost of a Project in the
manner hereinafter provided, shall be subject to a lien and charge in favor of the Holders of the
Bonds and for the further security of such Holders.
There shall be paid into the Construction Fund the amounts required to be so paid by the
provisions of this Resolution, and there may be paid into the Construction Fund, at the option of
the Issuer, any moneys received for or in connection with a Project by the Issuer from any other
source. The Issuer shall establish within the Construction Fund a separate account for each
Project the Cost of which is to be paid in whole or in part out of the Construction Fund.
The proceeds of insurance maintained pursuant to this Resolution against physical loss of
or damage to a Project, or of contractors' performance bonds with respect thereto pertaining to
the period of construction thereof, shall be deposited into the appropriate account of the
Construction Fund.
Any moneys received by the Issuer from the State or from the United States of America
or any agencies thereof for the purpose of financing part of the Cost of a Project shall be
deposited into the appropriate account of the Construction Fund and used in the same manner as
other Bond proceeds are used therein; provided that separate accounts or subaccounts may be
established in the Construction Fund for moneys received pursuant to the provisions of this
paragraph whenever required by Federal or State law.
The Issuer covenants that the acquisition, construction and installation of each Project
will be completed without delay and in accordance with sound engineering practices. The Issuer
shall make disbursements or payments from the applicable account of the Construction Fund to
pay Costs of the Project for which it was established, except as otherwise provided below. The
Issuer shall keep records of such disbursements and payments and shall retain all such records
for such period of time as required by applicable law. The Issuer shall make available the
records at all reasonable times for inspection by any Holder of any of the Bonds or the agent or
representative of any Holder of any of the Bonds.
Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 4.04, to the extent that other
moneys are not available therefor, amounts in an account of the Construction Fund shall be
applied to the payment of principal and interest on Bonds.
The date of completion of the acquisition, construction and equipping of a Project shall
be documented by an Authorized Issuer Officer or the Clerk in the appropriate records of the
30
Issuer. Promptly after the date of the completion of a Project, and after paying or making
provision for the payment of all unpaid items of the Cost of such Project, the Issuer shall deposit
in the following order of priority any balance of moneys remaining in an account in the
Construction Fund in (A) another account of the Construction Fund for which an Authorized
Issuer Officer has determined that there are insufficient moneys present to pay the Cost of the
related Project, (B) the Reserve Account, to the extent of a deficiency therein, and (C) such other
fund or account established hereunder as shall be determined by the Issuer or for any other
lawful purpose, provided the Issuer has received the prior approval of Bond Counsel to the effect
that such transfer shall not adversely affect the exclusion, if any, of interest on the Bonds (other
than Taxable Bonds) from gross income for purposes of Federal income taxation or shall not
otherwise affect the status of any Outstanding Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds or the
Issuer's receipt of Federal Subsidy Payments with respect to any Outstanding Federal Subsidy
Bonds.
SECTION 4.05. CREATION OF FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS. The Issuer
covenants and agrees to establish the following funds and accounts:
(A) The "Okaloosa County, Florida Water and Sewer Revenue Fund."
(B) The "Okaloosa County, Florida Water and Sewer Operation and Maintenance
Fund."
(C) The "Okaloosa County, Florida Water and Sewer Sinking Fund." The Issuer shall
maintain four separate accounts in the Sinking Fund: the "Interest Account," the "Principal
Account," the
