shall be executed in the name of the County with the manual or facsimile signature of the
Chairman and the Clerk and the official seal of the County shall be imprinted thereon, attested
and countersigned with the manual or facsimile signature of the Clerk. In case any one or more
of the officers who shall have signed or sealed the Series 2014 Note or whose facsimile signature
shall appear thereon shall cease to be such officer of the County before the Series 2014 Note so
signed and sealed has been actually sold and delivered, such Series 2014 Note may nevertheless
be sold and delivered as herein provided and may be issued as if the person who signed or sealed
such Series 2014 Note had not ceased to hold such office. The Series 2014 Note may be signed
and sealed on behalf of the County by such person who at the actual time of the execution of
such Series 2014 Note shall hold the proper office of the County, although at the date of the
Series 2014 Note such person may not have held such office or may not have been so authorized.
The County may adopt and use for such purposes the facsimile signatures of any such persons
who shall have held such offices at any time after the date of the adoption of this Resolution,
notwithstanding that either or both shall have ceased to hold such office at the time the Series
2014 Note shall be actually sold and delivered.
SECTION 2.04. SERIES 2014 NOTE MUTILATED, DESTROYED, STOLEN
OR LOST. In case the Series 2014 Note shall become mutilated, or be destroyed, stolen or lost,
the County may, in its discretion, issue and deliver a new Series 2014 Note, in exchange and
substitution for such mutilated Note upon surrender and cancellation of such mutilated Note or in
lieu of and substitution for the Note destroyed, stolen or lost, and upon the Holder furnishing the
County proof of his ownership thereof and indemnity satisfactory to the County, and complying
with such other reasonable regulations and conditions as the County may prescribe and paying
such expenses as the County may incur. The Series 2014 Note so surrendered or otherwise
substituted shall be canceled by the Registrar. If the Series 2014 Note shall have matured or
been called for redemption or be about to mature or be called for redemption, instead of issuing a
substitute Series 2014 Note, the County may pay the same or cause the Series 2014 Note to be
paid, upon being indemnified as aforesaid, and if the Series 2014 Note be lost, stolen or
destroyed, without surrender thereof.
Any such duplicate Series 2014 Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall constitute
an original, additional contractual obligation on the part of the County whether or not the lost,
stolen or destroyed Series 2014 Note be at any time found by anyone.
SECTION 2.05. INTERCHANGEABILITY, NEGOTIABILITY AND
TRANSFER. The Series 2014 Note may not be transferred except in whole. Further, the
transfer of the Series 2014 Note shall be restricted to Permitted Lenders. A "Permitted Lender"
shall mean any bank, trust company, savings institution, finance or leasing company, or
insurance company that is engaged as a regular part of its business in making loans and is
authorized to do business in the State.

SECTION 2.06. ADJUSTMENTS TO INTEREST RATE.
(a) The interest rate on the Series 2014 Note shall be subject to further adjustment as
described in this Section. Any adjustments shall be payable only after the Series 2014
Noteholder or its assigns has provided the County written notice of such adjustments.
(b) In the event of a Determination of Taxability, the interest rate on the Series 2014
Note shall be changed to the Taxable Rate effective retroactively to the date on which such
Determination of Taxability was made. Immediately upon a Determination of Taxability, the
County agrees to pay the Series 2014 Noteholder subject to such Determination of Taxability the
Additional Amount (as defined herein). "Additional Amount" means (i) the difference between
(A) interest on the Series 2014 Note for the period commencing on the date on which the interest
on such Note (or portion thereof) loses its tax-exempt status and ending on the earlier of the date
such Note ceased to be Outstanding or such adjustment is no longer applicable to such Note (the
"Taxable Period") at a rate per annum equal to the Taxable Rate as adjusted from time to time on
the same dates and in the same manner as the interest rate on such Note was or would be
adjusted pursuant to the provisions of the Note, and (B) the aggregate amount of interest payable
on such Note for the Taxable Period under the provisions of such Note, plus (ii) any penalties,
interest and additions to tax (as referred to in Subchapter A of Chapter 68 of the Code) paid or
payable by the Series 2014 Noteholder to the Internal Revenue Service by reason of such
Determination of Taxability.
(c) The above adjustments shall be cumulative, but in no event shall the interest rate
on the Series 2014 Note exceed the maximum rate permitted by law. The above adjustments to
the interest rate on the Series 2014 Note shall be effective on the effective date of the applicable
change in the tax laws or regulations or the Determination of Taxability, as applicable. Interest
on the Series 2014 Note and all other tax rates and interest rates are expressed as annual rates.
However, proper partial adjustment shall be made if the tax law change is effective after the first
day of the Series 2014 Note's tax year or if interest on the Series 2014 Note does not accrue for
the entire tax year of the Series 2014 Noteholder. Adjustments which create a circular
calculation because the interest rate on the Series 2014 Note is affected by the calculation shall
be carried out sequentially, increasing the interest rate on the Note accordingly in each
successive rate on the Note, until the change in the interest rate on the Series 2014 Note caused
by the next successive calculation of the adjustment is de minimis.
(d) To the extent an adjustment to the interest rate on the Series 2014 Note is not
effected within three (3) months of the event giving rise to the adjustment, the additional interest
due as a result of such adjustment shall be paid with interest thereon compounded monthly at the
rate which is equal to the interest rate on the Series 2014 Note. All unpaid amounts determined
to be owing as a result of such calculation shall be due and payable within ten (10) days after
delivery of notice of the amount of such adjustment, and shall be paid to the Series 2014
Noteholder of record during the period to which the adjustment relates. This obligation shall
survive the payment of the Series 2014 Note.
8
(e) If any amounts due and payable under this Section 2.06 are not paid within 10
days of the applicable due date, such delinquent amounts shall accrue interest at the Default Rate
until fully paid.
(f) If any adjustments made to the interest rate on the Series 2014 Note pursuant to
the terms of this Section shall cause such interest rate to be in violation of the maximum interest
rate provisions of Section 215.84, Florida Statutes, the Series 2014 Note shall be subject to
mandatory redemption within 30 days thereof, upon notice from the Series 2014 Noteholder or
its assigns to redeem the Series 2014 Note.
SECTION 2.07. NON-USAGE FEE. The County shall pay to the Series 2014
Noteholder, solely from the Pledged Revenues, the amount of the Non-Usage Fee due on the first
day of each month.
SECTION 2.08. FORM OF SERIES 2014 NOTE. The text of the Series 2014
Note shall be in substantially the following form, with such omissions, insertions and variations
as may be necessary and/or desirable and approved by the Chairman prior to the issuance thereof
(which necessity and/or desirability and approval shall be presumed by such officer's execution
of the Series 2014 Note and the County's delivery of the Series 2014 Note to the purchaser or
purchasers thereof):
