certificate of the Bond Registrar upon any such Series 2009 Bond shall be conclusive evidence
that such Series 2009 Bond has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Series
Ordinance and the 1998 Bond Ordinance. The Bond Registrar's certificate of authentication on

nominee of DTC. Each Series of Series 2009 Bonds shall be initially issued in the form of
separate single typewritten Series 2009 Bond for each maturity of each Series of Series 2009
Bonds.
(a) The provisions of this Section may be changed or varied with respect to any
Series 2009 Bonds for the purposes of (1) complying with the requirements of any automated
depository and clearinghouse for securities transactions and (2) effectuating any book -entry only
registration and payment system. During any and all times that any of the Series 2009 Bonds are
registered in the name of any Securities Depository pursuant to a book -entry only system of
registration, such Securities Depository shall for all purposes under this Series Ordinance be
considered the registered Owner of such Series 2009 Bond and all references herein to the
registered Owners or Holders shall mean such Securities Depository.
(b) With respect to any Series 2009 Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co., as
nominee of DTC, or otherwise held pursuant to a book -entry only system maintained by another
Securities Depository, the City, the Bond Registrar and the Paying Agent shall have no
responsibility or obligation to any DTC participant (or any participant of such other Securities
Depository) or to any beneficial owner (the "Beneficial Owner") of such Series 2009 Bonds. As
to any Series 2009 Bonds maintained through a book -entry only system, without limiting the
immediately preceding sentence, the City, the Trustee, the Bond Registrar and the Paying Agent

person, other than DTC (or any such other Securities Depository), of any amount with respect to
principal of, redemption premium, if any, or interest on such Series 2009 Bonds.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Series Ordinance to the contrary, the City, the
Trustee, the Bond Registrar and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to treat and consider DTC (or
any such other Securities Depository) as the absolute Owner of such Series 2009 Bonds for the
purpose of payment of principal of, redemption premium, if any, and interest on such Series
2009 Bonds, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other matters with respect to
such Series 2009 Bonds, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Series 2009
Bonds, and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Paying Agent shall pay all principal of,
redemption premium, if any, and interest on such Series 2009 Bonds only to or upon the order of
DTC (or any such other depository then in effect) and all such payments shall be valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations with respect to payment of principal

of amounts due pursuant to this Series Ordinance. Upon delivery by DTC (or any such other
Securities Depository then in effect) to the City of written notice to the effect that DTC (or any
such other Securities Depository then in effect) has determined to substitute a new nominee in
place of an existing nominee, and subject to the provisions in this Series Ordinance with respect
to interest checks or drafts being mailed to the registered Owners at the close of business on the
Record Date, the name of the existing nominee in this Series Ordinance shall refer to such new
nominee.
(1) The Securities Depository may determine to discontinue providing its
services with respect to the Series 2009 Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the
City and the Bond Registrar and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under
applicable law.
(2) The City, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any other
person, may terminate the services of a Securities Depository with respect to the Series
2009 Bonds if the City determines that the continuation of the system of book -entry -only
transfers through such Securities Depository is not in the best interests of the Beneficial
Owners of the Series 2009 Bonds or is burdensome to the City, and shall terminate the
services of such Securities Depository with respect to the Series 2009 Bonds upon receipt
by the City and the Bond Registrar of written notice from the Securities Depository to the
effect that it has received written notice from its participants having interest, as shown in
the records of the Securities Depository, in an aggregate principal amount of not less than
fifty percent (50%) of the Series 2009 Bonds that: (i) the Securities Depository is unable
to discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Series 2009 Bonds; or (ii) a
continuation of the requirement that all of the Outstanding Series 2009 Bonds be
registered in the registration books kept by the Bond Registrar in the name of the
Securities Depository's nominee is not in the best interest of the Beneficial Owners of the
Series 2009 Bonds.
(3) Upon the termination of the services of the Securities Depository with
respect to the Series 2009 Bonds pursuant to subsection (c)(2)(ii) hereof, or upon the
discontinuance or termination of the services of the Securities Depository with respect to
the Series 2009 Bonds pursuant to subsection (c)(1) or subsection (c)(2)(i) hereof after
which no substitute Securities Depository willing to undertake the functions of the
existing Securities Depository hereunder can be found which, in the opinion of the City,
is willing and able to undertake such functions upon reasonable and customary terms,
such Series 2009 Bonds shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the registration
books kept by the Bond Registrar in the name of the Securities Depository's nominee. In
such event, the City shall issue and the Bond Registrar shall authenticate bond certificates
as requested by the depository of the like principal amount in authorized denominations
to the identifiable Beneficial Owners in replacement of such Beneficial Owners'
beneficial interest in the Series 2009 Bonds.
(4) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Series Ordinance to the
contrary, so long as any Series 2009 Bonds is registered in the name of the Securities
Depository's nominee, all payments with respect to the principal of, redemption
premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2009 Bonds and all notices with respect to the
Series 2009 Bonds shall be made and given, respectively, to such Securities Depository
as provided in the representation letter (or other similar document required by the
Securities Depository) of the City and the Bond Registrar addressed to the Securities
Depository with respect to the Series 2009 Bonds.

Bondholders pursuant to this Series Ordinance or the 1998 Bond Ordinance by the City
or the Bond Registrar with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by
Bondholders, the City or the Bond Registrar, as the case may be, shall establish a record
date for such consent or other action and give the Securities Depository notice of such
record date not less than fifteen (15) calendar days in advance of such record date to the

of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), from and against
any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Official Statement or the Preliminary
Official Statement, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
fact or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are
caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission
based upon information relating to the Underwriters furnished to the City in writing by the
Underwriters expressly for use therein.
The Underwriters agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless the City,
its directors and its officers, but only with reference to information relating to the
Underwriters furnished to the City in writing by the Underwriters expressly for use in the

Statement.
If the indemnification provided for in the first or second paragraphs of this Section 11 is

referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in

Underwriters from the offering of the Series 2009 Bonds or (ii) if the allocation provided by
-14-
clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of
the City and of the Underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted
in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the City and the Underwriters shall be
deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering (before
deducting expenses) received by the City and the total underwriting discounts and
commissions received by the Underwriters, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the
Series 2009 Bonds. The relative fault of the City and the Underwriters shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied
by the City or by the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.]
12. Any notice or other communication to be given to the City under this Purchase
Contract may be given by delivering the same in writing in person or by certified or registered mail,

13. The City acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Series 2009 Bonds:
(a) the Representative has acted at arm's length, is not an agent of, and owes no fiduciary duties to,
the City or any other person, (b) the Representative owes the City only those duties and obligations
set forth in this Purchase Contract and (c) the Representative may have interests that differ from
those of the City. The City waives to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may
have against the Representative arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with
the offering of the Series 2009 Bonds.
14. This Purchase Contract shall constitute the entire agreement between the City and the
Underwriters and is made solely for the benefit of the City, the Department and the Underwriters.
No other person shall acquire or have any rights hereunder or by virtue hereof. All representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements of the City in this Purchase Contract shall remain operative
and in full force and effect, regardless of (a) any investigation made by or on behalf of the
Underwriters, and (b) the delivery of any payment for the Series 2009 Bonds hereunder. This
Purchase Contract may not be assigned by the City or the Underwriters.
15. This Purchase Contract may be amended only by an agreement in writing between the
City and the Underwriters.

fact, be invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as applied in any particular case in any jurisdiction or
jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions because it conflicts with any provisions of any Constitution,
statute, rule of public policy, or any other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of
rendering the provision in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other case or
circumstance, or of rendering any other provision or provisions of this Purchase Contract invalid,
inoperative or unenforceable to any extent whatever.
20. No waiver by any parry of any provision of this Purchase Contract shall be deemed a
waiver by such party of such provision in any other instance or a waiver of any other provision of
this Purchase Contract in any instance. This Purchase Contract cannot be modified except in writing
signed by the parry to be charged.
21. All references to monetary amounts in the Purchase Contract, and all payments
required to be made hereunder or with respect to this Purchase Contract, refer to and shall be made in

PLAN OF FINANCE
Refunding
The Refunded Bonds were issued to refund the City's $36,805,000 original aggregate principal
amount of Tax -Exempt Variable Rate Parking System Revenue Bonds, Series 2006 (the "Tax -Exempt
Series 2006 Bonds') and its $3,854,000 original aggregate principal amount of Taxable Variable Rate
Parking System Revenue Bonds, Series 2006 (the 'Taxable Series 2006 Bonds' and, together with the Tax -
Exempt Series 2006 Bonds, the "Series 2006 Bonds'). Concurrently with the delivery of the Series 2009
Bonds, a portion of the proceeds of the Tax Exempt Series 2009 Bonds will be applied to the payment in full
of the Tax -Exempt Series 2008 Bonds currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of [$37,070,000]
and a portion of the proceeds of the Taxable Series 2009 Bonds will be applied to the payment in full of the
Taxable Series 2008 Bonds currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of [$3,880,000]. The City
has previously caused to be delivered a conditional notice of redemption with respect to the Refunded
Bonds. The Refunded Bonds are scheduled to be redeemed on [November 5, 2009] (the "Refunded Bonds
Redemption Date").
The Refunded Bonds will be paid on the Refunded Bonds Redemption Date. The lien of the Bond
Ordinance authorizing the Refunded Bonds, shall cease, determine and become void as to the Refunded
Bonds as of the Refunded Bonds Redemption Date.
Swap
On March 30, 2006, the City entered into a swap agreement with Bear Stearns Financial Products
Inc., consisting of an ISDA Master Agreement, a Schedule to the Master Agreement and a Confirmation
(collectively, the "Swap Agreement") in connection with the Tax -Exempt Series 2006 Bonds. On August
28, 2008, the Swap Agreement was amended to apply to the Tax -Exempt Series 2008 Bonds. The Swap
Agreement was further amended on January 15, 2009, to replace Bear Stearns Financial Products, Inc.
with JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A. The purpose of the Swap Agreement was to hedge a portion of the
Tax -Exempt Series 2008 Bonds through October 1, 2036 and provide a synthetic fixed rate of interest of
4.485%. The City has exercised its right to terminate the Swap Agreement, causing the City to owe a
payment upon termination of the Swap Agreement, as calculated in the Swap Agreement (the "Swap
Termination Payment"). The Swap Termination Payment in the aggregate amount of S will be
paid by the City to JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A. from the proceeds of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds.
See "ESTINIATED SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS" herein.
The Series 2009 Project
The Series 2009 Project will consist of the following:
(1) completion of a parking garage containing approximately 700 parking spaces with
approximately 34,000 square feet ("s.f.") of office space and approximately 4,500 s.f. of commercial
retail/restaurant rental space on the ground floor (collectively referred to herein as the "GI Garage"). The
G1 Garage will replace the existing 515 parking space garage and a 41 parking space surface lot currently
owned and operated by the Department. The Department anticipates utilizing approximately 12,000 s.f.
of office space itself or to lease such space to other governmental entities. The G1 Garage is located on
NW 1st Avenue. A portion of the costs of the G1 Garage was paid with proceeds of the Series 2006
Bonds. The G1 Garage is 80% complete and is expected to be completed in December 2009;
(2) The acquisition and installation of Pay and Display automated parking meters ("PAD"). The
Department expects to purchase and install additional PAD's. PAD's are multi -space pay stations that
will replace individual on -street parking meters and attendants in off-street parking lots, which are
programmed to accept coins, credit cards and debit cards for payment; and
(3) Other miscellaneous projects that are smaller in size including, but not limited to electronic
parking meters, replacement of vehicles and other improvements to the Parking System.

Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption is to be (a) filed with the Paying Agent and (b) mailed
postage prepaid, at least thirty (30) days before the redemption date to all registered owners of the Series 2009
Bonds or portions of the Series 2009 Bonds to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the registration

the Securities Depository, notices of redemption shall be sent only to the Securities Depository or its
nominee. Selection of book -entry interests in the Series 2009 Bonds called, and notice of the call to the
owners of those interests called, is the responsibility of the Securities Depository pursuant to its rules and
procedures, and of its participants and indirect participants. Any failure of the Securities Depository to
advise any participant, or of any participant or any indirect participant to notify the owner of a book -
entry interest, of any such notice and its content or effect shall not affect the validity of any proceedings
for the redemption of any Series 2009 Bonds.
If applicable, in the case of optional redemption only, such notice may be given as a conditional
notice of redemption, in which case such notice shall state the condition and provide that if such
condition is not met on or prior to such redemption date, no such redemption shall occur.
The failure of any bondholder of the Series 2009 Bonds to receive notice given as provided in the
Bond Ordinance, or any defect therein, shall not effect the validity of any proceeding for the redemption
of any Series 2009 Bonds. Any notice mailed as provided in the Bond Ordinance shall be conclusively
presumed to have been duly given and shall become effective upon mailing, whether or not any
bondholder received such notice.
Such notice shall set forth the date fixed for redemption, the Redemption Price to be paid, the
maturities of the Series 2009 Bonds to be redeemed, the CUSIP number, if any, of the Series 2009 Bonds,
the name, address and telephone number of the person designated by the Trustee to be responsible for
such redemption, if applicable, and if less than all of the Series 2009 Bonds of any one maturity then
Outstanding are to be called for redemption, the distinctive numbers and letters, if any, of such Bonds to
be redeemed, and the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. The notice of the
redemption shall state also that on or after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Series 2009 Bond,
a new registered Series 2009 Bond in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Series
2009 Bond will be issued.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange
Any Series 2009 Bond, upon surrender thereof at the principal corporate office of the Trustee,
together with an assignment duly executed by the Bondholder or his attorney or legal representative in
such form as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee, may, at the option of the Bondholder, be exchanged for
an aggregate principal amount of Series 2009 Bond(s) so surrendered of like maturity and interest rate.
The City shall make provision for the exchange of Series 2009 Bonds at the principal office of the Trustee.
The Trustee, as Bond Registrar, shall keep books for the registration and the registration of
transfer of the Series 2009 Bonds as provided in the Bond Ordinance. The transfer of any Series 2009
Bonds may be registered only upon such books and only upon surrender thereof to the Trustee together
with an assignment duly executed by the Bondholder or his attorney or legal representative in such form
as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. Upon such registration of the transfer the City shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such Series 2009 Bond, a new Series 2009 Bond or
Series 2009 Bonds registered in the name of the transferee, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to
the principal amount of such Series 2009 Bond or Series 2009 Bonds so surrendered.
In all cases which the Series 2009 Bonds shall be exchanged, the City shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, at the earliest practicable time, Series 2009 Bonds of the same type
in accordance with the provisions in the Bond Ordinance. All Series 2009 Bonds surrendered in any such
exchange or registration of transfer shall forthwith be cancelled by the Trustee. The City or the Trustee
may make a charge for every such exchange or registration of transfer of Series 2009 Bonds sufficient to
reimburse it for any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange
or registration of transfer, and for shipping and out-of-pocket costs incurred by the City or the Trustee,
but no other charge shall be made to any Bondholder for the privilege of exchanging or registering the
transfer of Series 2009 Bonds under the provisions of the Bond Ordinance.
The person in whose name the Series 2009 Bond is registered shall be deemed and regarded as
the absolute owner thereof for all purposes and payment of or on account of the principal of any such
7
Series 2009 Bond shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered owner thereof or his legal
representative. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon
such Series 2009 Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
Replacement of Series 2009 Bonds Mutilated, Destroyed, Stolen or Lost
If any Series 2009 Bond is mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, the City shall cause to be executed,
and the Trustee shall deliver a new Series 2009 Bond of like series, date, number and tenor in exchange
and substitution for and upon the cancellation of any mutilated Series 2009 Bond, or in lieu of and in
substitution for any destroyed, lost or stolen Series 2009 Bond and the Bondholder shall pay the
reasonable expenses and charges of the City in connection therewith. Prior to the delivery of a substitute
Series 2009 Bond, the Bondholder of any Series 2009 Bond which was destroyed, lost or stolen shall fine
with the Trustee evidence satisfactory to it of the destruction, loss or theft or such Series 2009 Bond, and
the Bondholder's ownership thereof and shall furnish to the City and to the Trustee such security or
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from all risks, however remote.
Any such duplicate Series 2009 Bond shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the
City, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Series 2009 Bond is found at any time or is enforceable
by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits and security hereof equally and proportionately with
any and all other Series 2009 Bonds duly issued under the Bond Ordinance. All bonds shall be held and
owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Series 2009 Bonds and shall preclude any
and all other rights or remedies, notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the
contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without
their surrender.

operate immediately and that the Trustee shall have the right to collect and receive Net Revenues from the
Department in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Ordinance at all times during the period from and
after the date of issuance of the Series 2009 Bonds until the Series 2009 Bonds have been fully paid and
discharged.
The Series 2009 Bonds will be secured on a parity with the Series 1998 Bonds, currently outstanding in the
8
aggregate principal amount of $5,925,000 and any Additional Bonds issued under the Bond Ordinance.
"Revenues," under the Bond Ordinance, include (a) except to the extent excluded below, all income

No Pledge of Credit or Taxing Power
The Series 2009 Bonds are special and limited obligations of the City, and shall not be or constitute
general obligations or indebtedness of the Department or the City within the meaning of the Florida
Constitution. Neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City or the State of Florida or any
political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the principal of or the interest on the Series 2009
Bonds and the owners thereof shall not have any right to compel any exercise of the taxing power of the City or
the State of Florida or of any political subdivision thereof, to enforce such payment. The Series 2009 Bonds are
not, and will not be, secured by any lien, charge or encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon the property of the
City or the State of Florida or any political subdivision thereof, except the sources specified in the Bond
Ordinance. The Department has no taxing power and if it acquires taxing power, such taxing power is not
pledged to the payment of the Series 2009 Bonds or any interest or premium thereon.
M
Flow of Funds
The Bond Ordinance creates the Miami Parking System Construction Fund (the "Construction
Fund"), the Miami Parking System Bond Fund (the 'Bond Fund") and the Miami Parking System Fund (the
"Parking System Fund"). The Series 2009 Ordinance establishes a separate account designated the "Series
2009 Project Account" within the Construction Fund. Within the Series 2009 Project Account, separate
subaccounts designated as the "Tax -Exempt Subaccount" and the "Taxable Subaccount" are created for
deposit of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds proceeds and the Taxable Series 2009 Bonds proceeds,
respectively. Further, separate subaccounts designated as the "Series 2009 Tax -Exempt Cost of Issuance
Subaccount" and the "Series 2009 Taxable Cost of Issuance Subaccount" are created within the applicable
subaccount of the Series 2009 Project Account. The Bond Ordinance also creates within the Bond Fund the
following six special accounts: the Interest Account, the Principal Account, the Sinking Fund Account, the
Reserve Account, the Redemption Account, and the Insurance and Condemnation Award Account. In
addition, the Bond Ordinance creates within the Parking System Fund, the Revenue AccoLunt, the Renewal
and Replacement Account, the Rebate Account and the General Reserve Account. The Bond Fund and the
Accounts therein shall be established with and held by the Trustee. The Construction Fund and the Accounts
therein and the Parking System Fund and the Accounts therein shall be established with and held by the
Department in a Depositary.
The Trustee or the Department may establish separate accounts or subaccounts for such Funds and
Accounts with respect to the Series 2009 Bonds.
Except as hereinafter described, all Revenues received by the Department will be deposited when
received to the credit of the Revenue Account. The Department shall apply moneys in the Revenue Account to the
payment of Current Expenses and thereafter, to the extent provided in the Bond Ordinance, to the purchase of Bonds.
On or before the 20th day of each month, the Chief Financial Officer shall withdraw from the Revenue Account all
amounts on deposit therein in excess of the Operations and Maintenance Requirement for such month and will
apply such moneys in the following manner and order (except that payments provided for in (a), (b) and (c) shall
be on a parity with each other):
(a) with the Trustee to the credit of the Interest Account an amount thereof which, together A ith
any other funds provided by the Department for such purpose after taking into account any capitalized or
accrued interest set aside for such purpose, is equal to one-sixth (1/6) of the interest to become due and
payable within the next ensuing six (6) months on all Bonds then Outstanding and the amount of any
Qualified Derivative Payment payable by the City accenting in such month;
(b) with the Trustee to the credit of the Principal Account an amount thereof which, together with
any other funds provided by the Department for such purpose, is equal to one twelfth (1/12) of the
principal to become due and payable within the next ensuing twelve (12) months on all Serial Bonds then
Outstanding;
(c) with the Trustee to the credit of the Sinking Fund Account an amount thereof which, together
with any other funds provided by the Department for such purpose, is equal to one -twelfth (1/12) of the
10
Sinking Fund Requirement to become due and payable within the next ensuing twelve (12) months on all
Term Bonds then Outstanding;
(d) with the Trustee to the credit of the Reserve Account such amount, including an amount necessary to
reimburse the issuer of a Reserve Product for draws thereunder in order to reinstate such Reserve Product, as
may be required to make the amount then to the credit of the Reserve Account equal to the Reserve
Requirement; provided, however, that if so provided in the Series Ordinance relating to Additional Bonds or
Refunding Bonds, the amount required to make the amount to the credit of the Reserve Account following
the issuance of such Series of Bonds equal to the Reserve Requirement may be deposited to the credit of the
Reserve Account in sixty (60) or less substantially equal monthly installments beginning in the month
following the month in which such Series of Bonds are authenticated and delivered;
(e) to the credit of the Renewal and Replacement Account such amount as may be required to make
the amount then on deposit to the credit of the Renewal and Replacement Account equal to the Renewal
and Replacement Account Requirement;
(f) to the credit of the Rebate Account, such amounts as shall be required under the terms of the Bond
Ordinance; and
(g) to the credit of the General Reserve Account the balance remaining after making the deposits
required by paragraphs (a) through (f) above.
Except as is otherwise provided in the Bond Ordinance, in determining the amount of money to be
deposited to each Fund and Account there shall be taken into consideration the investment earnings or losses that are
to be charged to such Fund or Account (in accordance with the Bond Ordinance) and the amounts then on deposit
therein resulting from the application of Bond proceeds or the transfers as provided below.
In each month following a month in wNch the Department has failed to make any deposit or payment
required by paragraphs (a) through (f) above, the Department will deposit or pay, in addition to the amounts
then due, an amount sufficient to cure the deficiency in deposit or payment in the prior month unless such
deficiency is cured by a transfer, pursuant to the Bond Ordinance, of money or Investment Obligations to such Fund or
Account from other Funds and Accounts created under the Bond Ordinance.
Whenever the amount on deposit in the Revenue Account is insufficient to pay Current Expenses, the
Chief Financial Officer will transfer an amount necessary to pay the same to the Revenue Account, drawing
upon funds available in the General Reserve Account and the Renewal and Replacement Account, in that
order.
On or before the 45th day next preceding any date on which Serial Bonds are to mature or Term
Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to a Sulking Fund Requirement or are to mature, the Chief Financial Officer
may satisfy all or a portion of the obligation to make the required payments into the Principal Account or
the Sinking Fund Account by delivering to the Trustee Serial Bonds maturing or Term Bonds maturing or
required to be redeemed on such date. The price paid to purchase any such Bond shall not exceed the
Redemption Price applicable to such Bonds at the next redemption date. Upon such delivery the Department
shall receive a credit against amounts required to be deposited into the Principal Account on account of such
Serial Bonds or into the Sinking Fund Account on account of such Term Bonds in the amount 100% of the
11
principal amount of any such Serial Bonds or Term Bonds so delivered.
Reserve Account
The Bond Ordinance requires the City to maintain on deposit in the Reserve Account an amount equal
to the Reserve Requirement. The Reserve Requirement means, with respect to the Series 1998 Bonds, the Series
2009 Bonds and any Additional Bonds issued under the Bond Ordinance, an amount of money, or the
aggregate available amount under one or more Reserve Account Insurance Policies or Reserve Account
Letters of Credit (also referred to herein and in the Bond Ordinance as "Reserve Product"), or a combination
thereof, equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum Principal and Interest Requirements calculated with respect
to all Series of Bonds Outstanding under the Bond Ordinance in the current or any subsequent Fiscal Year, (ii)125%
of the average annual Principal and Interest Requirements calculated with respect to all Series of Bonds
Outstanding under the Bond Ordinance, or (iii) 10% of the aggregate stated original principal amount of Bonds
Outstanding under the Bond Ordinance, provided, however, that in detemvnulg the aggregate stated original
principal amount of Bonds Outstanding for purposes of this clause (iii), the issue price of Bonds (net of pre -
issuance accrued interest) shall be substituted for the original stated principal amount of those Bonds if such
Bonds were sold at either an original issue discount or premium exceeding two percent (2%) of the stated
redemption price at maturity. Under the Bond Ordinance, the City is pernnitted to meet its Reserve Requirement with
respect to any Series of Bonds issued under the Bond Ordinance by making deposits to the credit of the Reserve
Account in sixty (60) or less substantially equal monthly installments beginning in the month following the
month in which a Series of Bonds is authenticated and delivered under the Bond Ordinance.
If Additional Bonds are issued under the 1998 Bond Ordinance, the Series Ordinance relating to the same
shall provide either for the deposit into the Reserve Account of an amount that will cause the amount then on
deposit therein to equal the Reserve Requirement on all Bonds Outstanding after the issuance of such Bonds or
for sixty (60) or less substantially equal monthly deposits, as described above, in accordance with the provisions
in the Bond Ordinance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of the required deposits into the Reserve Account,
the City may cause to be deposited a Reserve Product for the benefit of the Bondholders in an amount equal to
the difference between the Reserve Requirement applicable thereto and the sums then on deposit in the Reserve
Account, if any. Such Reserve Product shall be payable to the Trustee (upon the giving of notice as required
thereunder) on any Interest Payment Date, maturity date or redemption date on which a deficiency exists which
cannot be cured by funds in any other fund or account held pursuant to the Bond Ordinance and available for
such purpose. The provider of such Reserve Product shall either be (a) an insurer whose municipal bond
insurance policies insuring the payment, when due, of the principal of and interest on municipal bond issues
results in such issues being rated in one of the two highest rating categories (without regard to gradations, such as
"plus" or "minus" of such categories) by at least one nationally recognized securities rating agency or (b) a
commercial bank, insurance company or other financial institution the bonds payable or guaranteed by which
have been assigned a rating by at least one nationally recognized securities rating agency in one of the two
highest rating categories (without regard to gradations, such as "plus" or 'minus" of such categories). In addition,
such Reserve Product shall be for a term of not less than twelve (12) months and any reimbursement agreement
related thereto shall provide that the City's reimbursement obligation thereunder shall be subordinate to the
payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds.
Notwithstanding the foregoing if the Reserve Account has been funded with cash or Investment
12
Obligations and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Bond Ordinance, the City
may, at any time in its discretion, substitute a Reserve Product meeting the requirements of the Bond Ordinance
for the cash and Investment Obligations, and the City may then withdraw such cash and Investment Obligations
and apply them to any lawful purpose, so long as (i) the same does not adversely affect any rating by any
nationally recognized securities rating agency then in effect for the Outstanding Bonds and (ii) the City obtains an
opinion of Bond Counsel that such actions will not, in and of themselves, adversely affect the exclusion from
gross income of interest on the Bonds (other than Taxable Bonds) for federal income tax purposes.
To the extent the City causes to be deposited into the Reserve Account, a Reserve Product for a term of
years shorter than the life of the Series of Bonds so insured or secured or if such Reserve Product is subject to
termination prior to the maturity of the Series of Bonds so insured, then the Reserve Product shall provide,
among other things, that the issuer thereof shall provide the City Adth notice as of each armiversary of the date of
the issuance of the Reserve Product of the intention of the issuer thereof to either (a) extend the term of the
Reserve Product beyond the expiration date thereof, or (b) terminate the Reserve Product on the initial expiration
dates thereof or such other future date as the issuer thereof shall have established. If the issuer of the Reserve
Product notifies the City pursuant to clause (b) of the immediately preceding sentence or if the City terminates the
Reserve Product or it otherwise terminates in accordance with its terms, then the City shall (a) deposit into the
Reserve Account, on or prior to the fifteenth day of the first full calendar month following the date on which such
notice is received by the City, such sums as shall be sufficient to pay an amount equal to a fraction, the numerator

available, assuming full reimbursement by the City, under the Reserve Product to be reduced annually by an
amount equal to the deposit to Reserve Account during the previous twelve (12) month period) until amounts on
deposit in the Reserve Account, as a result of the aforementioned deposits, and no later than upon the expiration
of such Reserve Product, shall be equal to the Reserve Requirement, and (b) on a parity basis, shall reimburse the
provider of the terminated Reserve Product all amounts due and owing under the terms and conditions of the
reimbursement agreement between the City and such provider.
If any Reserve Product shall not be renewed prior to the stated expiration date thereof, the City agrees
that it shall fund the Reserve Account over a period not to exceed sixty (60) months from the date of receipt of any
notice of non -renewal during which it shall make consecutive equal monthly payments in order that the amount

Rate Covenant
The City and the Department have covenanted in the Bond Ordinance to fix, charge and collect rates,
fees, rentals and charges for the use of the Parking System and to revise such rates, fees, rentals and charges as
often as may be necessary or appropriate to produce Revenues in each Fiscal Year at least equal to the sum of (i)
Current Expenses for such period, plus (4)150% of the Principal and Interest Requirements for such period, plus
(iii) the amounts required to be deposited in the Reserve Account in such period. In calculating Principal and
Interest Requirements for purposes of the Rate Covenant, the City and the Department may net out therefrom
any amount of interest for such period for which a like amount of accrued or capitalized interest has been set
aside and held under the Bond Ordinance.
If, in any Fiscal Year, the Revenues are less than the amount required in the preceding paragraph and if
the cash and value of the Investment Obligations available within the Funds and Accounts created by the Bond
Ordinance are not sufficient to make such deposits to the Interest Account, the Principal Account, the Smiting
Fund Account, the Reserve Account, and the Rebate Account, the City and the Department have covenanted to
take action to revise the rates, fees, rentals and charges, or alter their methods of operation or take whatever action
is necessary to produce the amount so required in such period.
If the audit report for any Fiscal Year indicates that the requirements of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the
second preceding paragraph above, have not been satisfied, then within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of the audit
report for such Fiscal Year, the Department has agreed to employ a Parking Consultant to review and analyze the
financial status and administration and operations of the Parking System, to inspect the properties constituting
the Parking System and to submit to the Board and the Chief Executive Officer, within sixty (60) days thereafter, a
written report on the same, including the action taken by the City and the Department with respect to the revision
of Parking System rates, fees, rentals and charges, which report may contain recommendations of further revision
of the rates, fees, rentals, charges and methods of operation of the Parking System that will result in producing the
amount so required during that Fiscal Year. Promptly upon its receipt of the recommendations, the Department
will transmit copies thereof to the City Commission, the Trustee and each Bondholder of Record who has
requested the same and will take such further action as is then in the best interest of the Registered Owners of the
Bonds, the Department, the City and its citizens.
14
In the event the City and the Department fail to take the actions described in the two preceding
paragraphs above, the Trustee may upon request of the Registered Owners of not less than 25% in principal
amount of all Bonds Outstanding shall, institute and prosecute an action or proceeding in any court or before any
board or commission having jurisdiction to compel the City and the Department to comply with such
requirements.

with other funds available for such purpose are not less than the estimated Cost of the Additional System
Facilities (as demonstrated in a certificate delivered on behalf of the City to the Trustee); (ii) the sum of (A) Net
Revenues from the most recent Fiscal Year for which audited financial statements have been filed and (B) the
estimated Net Revenues which would have been received if any rate adjustment which affected the Parking
System and became effective prior to the issuance of the Additional Bonds had been in effect during that

issued is not later than the final maturity of the Bonds being refunded by such Additional Bonds, and (ii) the
Principal and Interest Requirement for each Fiscal Year for the Additional Bonds does not exceed the
Principal and Interest Requirement for such Fiscal Year for the Bonds being refunded.

were issued with a maturity of twenty-five (25) years after the date of issuance, with substantially equal
annual payments of principal and interest and with an interest rate substantially equal to the market
interest rate for similar obligations of twenty-five (25) year maturity at the time the calculation is

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF BUDGET AND FINANCES
The Department's Fiscal Year 2008-2009 Budget was adopted on September 25, 2008. The Fiscal
Year 2008-2009 Budget is approximately $21,410,314, which is an overall increase of 9.97% ($1,941,964)
from the Fiscal Year 2007-2008 Budget. Such variance can be attributable to (i) an expected decrease in
garage revenues by 16.24% due to the closing of Garage 1 and a decline in visitor parking, (ii) an expected
increase in lot revenues by 12.75% due to the opening of new facilities, (iii) an expected increase in on -
street revenues by 19.56% due to implementation of 150 additional pay and display machines and new
17
parking meters, and (iv) an expected increase in operating expenses by 6.39% due to labor and benefit
costs, maintenance, utilities, consultants and revenue sharing agreements.
The Department anticipates that the actual amounts expended and received for Fiscal Year 2008-
2009 ending September 30, 2009 will be in excess of the amounts budgeted. Any excess net income will
be transferred to the City.

THE PARKING SYSTEM
Parking System Facilities
As of [August 31, 2009], the Department managed approximately [31,900] parking spaces,
including [10] garages, [86] surface lots, [500] Pay and Display Meters and [8,500] metered spaces. The
Department provides parking for about 6 million vehicles annually.
Many of these spaces serve the central business district of the City; in addition, important
segments of the Parking System serve the outlying areas of Coconut Grove, Little Havana, the Civic
Center, Jackson Memorial Hospital, Brickell Avenue, the Design District, the Omni Mall and shopping
area and the Edison Business District. The Board has made a policy decision to operate throughout the
City in order to expand service and to reduce dependency on downtown economic conditions.
The composition of, and recent changes in, the total number of parking spaces contained within
the Parking System are reflected in the following table:

Additional Operations
In addition to on -street and off-street parking operations, the Department shares responsibility
with the City of Miami Police Department for the ticketing and towing of illegally parked vehicles. The
Department derives revenues from such towing activities. The Department also shares responsibility with
Miami -Dade County for enforcement of parking regulations. Although the Department participates in
these enforcement and regulatory responsibilities, the Department receives no parking fine revenues. All
parking fine revenues generated within the City is collected by the Miami -Dade County Clerk of the
Circuit and County Courts, and is allocated to the City (66.67%) and Miami -Dade County (33.33%). Such
parking fine revenues are not treated as revenues of the Parking System and are not included as Net
Revenues pledged to the Bonds. During Fiscal Year 2008, Department traffic management enforcement
efforts generated approximately $3,100,000 in parking fine revenues for the City and $4,000,000 for
Miami -Dade County. Through August 31, 2009 of Fiscal Year 2009, Department traffic management
enforcement efforts generated approximately $ in parking fine revenues for the City and $ for
Miami -Dade County.
A unique non -parking related responsibility of the Department is the management of the
historic 1,567 -seat Gusman Center for the Performing Arts and the Olympia Office Building owned by
the City. The Gusman Center and Olympia Office Building was donated to the City in 1975 by its
benefactor, Maurice Gusman, with the stipulation that the facility be managed by the Department. The
City provides deficit funding, as necessary, for operating deficits of the facility. The operation of the
complex is accounted for as a separate enterprise fund of the City. The Olympia Office Building has
been leased to a private developer who converted the offices into low-income affordable residential
housing. Revenues received by the Department in connection with the management of the Gusman
Center and the Olympia Office Building are included in Revenues.
Parking Consultant
The Department has designated the engineering firm of Hershell Gill Consulting Engineers, Inc.
as its Parking Consultant (the 'Parking Consultant") to provide various studies and inspections of the
Parking Facilities. These structural inspections are done on each facility approximately every two years.
Garages 2, 3, 4, 8 and 9 were inspected in 2009. In each report the Parking Consultant made
recommendations to the Department regarding remedial action which should be taken. Such
recommendations include painting, replacement of light bulbs, repair of cracks, repair of concrete,
replacement of drains, replacement of concrete parking wheel stops and replacement of fire
extinguishers. However, the structures for Garages 2 and 3 were found to be in fair condition and its
structures for Garages 4, 8 and 9 were found to be in good condition. The Department anticipates that
the recommendations will be acted upon within months.
22
System Rates and Charges
The Department monitors the daily revenue collections of its parking garages with a
computerized revenue collection system. Parking lots and garages are monitored with daily revenue
reports. Meter locations are monitored with a computerized analytical system which allows monitoring
of meters by zones such as a small single City block. The Department reviews the rates and revenues of
the Parking System monthly and annually as part of the budget process. The present policy of the Board
is to keep the rates of the Parking System comparable to similar public and private facilities.
The chief factors which cause rate changes include: (i) a change in the demand for a facility and
(ii) a change in the rates charged by nearby similar parking facilities. Parking meters are removed from
unprofitable areas provided such a removal will not have an adverse effect on an adjacent profitable
facility. At present, it is the policy of the Department to establish rates at a level necessary to ensure a
minimum of 1.5 times debt service coverage; the Department has covenanted in the Bond Ordinance to
maintain a 1.5 times debt service coverage.
The City Commission on January 13, 2005 enacted Ordinance No. 12644 (the "2005 Parking Rate
Ordinance"), which significantly increased parking fees and charges for on -street meters and
permits/decals and off-street parking lots. Prior to the 2005 Parking Rate Ordinance, the City had only
two increases in parking rates in the last 11 years. In addition to increasing parking rates, the 2005
Parking Rate Ordinance authorized the Department, by Resolution, to increase parking rates up to 3%
annually, either successively or cumulatively, without further review or action on the part of the City
Commission.
Except as otherwise permitted by the 2005 Parking Rate Ordinance, all rate changes must be
submitted to the Board for adoption. Rate changes adopted by the Board must subsequently be
submitted to the City Commission for ratification. The City Commission delegates to the Board the
ability to set rates on an "experimental basis" for less than one year in order to enable the Board and
Department to react quickly to changing environmental factors and to open new facilities during the
Fiscal Year without the need to amend the rate ordinance.
The current rate structure of the Department provides, as follows:
• On Street Meter Rates consist of $0.75, $1.00 or $1.25 per hour depending on the specific
location of the meter.
• On Street Monthly Permit Rates range from $35.00 to $85.00 per month.
• Off Street Surface Lot Rates range from $1.25 to $2.00 per half hour depending upon the
lot and $35.00 to $65.00 per month.
• Garage Rates range from $70.00 to $180.00 per month and from $1.50 per half hour up to
a maximum of $18.75 per day.

LEGAL MATTERS
Certain legal matters incident to the validity of the Series 2009 Bonds are subject to the approval
of Squires, Sanders & Dempsey, L.L.P, Bond Counsel whose approving opinion in the form attached
hereto as "APPENDIX D - PROPOSED FORM OF BOND COUNSEL OPINION" will be furnished
without charge to the purchasers of the Series 2009 Bonds at the time of their delivery. The actual legal
opinion to be delivered may vary from that text if necessary to reflect facts and lav on the date of
delivery.
Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the City by Julie O. Bru, Esq., City Attorney, and
by Bryant Miller Olive P.A., Miami, Florida, Disclosure Counsel to the City.
29
LITIGATION
There is no pending or, to the knowledge of the City, any threatened litigation against the City
or the Department of any nature whatsoever which in any way questions or affects the validity of the
Series 2009 Bonds, or any proceedings or transactions relating to their issuance, sale, execution, or
delivery, or the adoption of the Bond Ordinance, or the collection of the Revenues of the Parking System.
Neither the creation, organization or existence, nor the title of the present members of the City
Commission or the Department, or other officers of the City or the Department, is being contested.
The Department experiences claims, litigation, and various legal proceedings which individually
are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the operations or financial condition of the
Department, but may, in the aggregate, have a material impact thereon. In the opinion of the City
Attorney, the Department will either successfully defend such actions or otherwise resolve such matters
without any material adverse consequences to the financial condition of the Department.
DISCLOSURE REQUIRED BY FLORIDA BLUE SKY REGULATIONS
Rule 69W-400.003, Rules of Government Securities, promulgated by the Office of Financial
Regulation of the Financial Services Commission, under Section 517.051(1), Florida Statutes ("Rule 69W-
400.003"), requires the City to disclose each and every default as to the payment of principal and interest
with respect to obligations issued by the City after December 31, 1975. Rule 69W-400.003 further
provides, however, that if the City in good faith believes that such disclosures would not be considered
material by a reasonable investor, such disclosures may be omitted. The City has not defaulted on the
payment of principal or interest with respect to obligations issued by the City after December 31, 1975.
TAX MATTERS
In the opinion of Squire, Sanders & Dempsey L.L.P., Bond Counsel, under existing law: (i)
interest on the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and is not an
item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and
corporations; and (ii) the Series 2009 Bonds and the income thereon are exempt from taxation under the
laws of the State of Florida, except estate taxes imposed by Chapter 198, Florida Statutes, as amended,
and net income and franchise taxes imposed by Chapter 220, Florida Statutes, as amended. Interest on
the Taxable Series 2009 Bonds is not excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Bond
Counsel expresses no opinion as to any other tax consequences regarding the Series 2009 Bonds.
The opinion on tax matters will be based on and will assume the accuracy of certain
representations and certifications, and continuing compliance with certain covenants, of the City
contained in the transcript of proceedings and that are intended to evidence and assure the foregoing,
including that the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds are and will remain obligations the interest on which is
excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Bond Counsel will not independently
verify the accuracy of the City's certifications and representations or the continuing compliance with the
30
City's covenants.
The opinion of Bond Counsel is based on current legal authority and covers certain matters not
directly addressed by such authority. It represents Bond Counsel's legal judgment as to exclusion of
interest on the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes but is
not a guaranty of that conclusion. The opinion is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") or
any court. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion about (i) the effect of future changes in the Code and the
applicable regulations under the Code or (ii) the interpretation and the enforcement of the Code or those
regulations by the IRS.
The Code prescribes a number of qualifications and conditions for the interest on state and local
government obligations to be and to remain excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes,
some of which require future or continued compliance after issuance of the obligations. Noncompliance
with these requirements by the City may cause loss of such status and result in the interest on the Tax -
Exempt Series 2009 Bonds being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactively
to the date of issuance of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds. The City has covenanted to take the actions
required of it for the interest on the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds to be and to remain excluded from
gross income for federal income tax purposes, and not to take any actions that would adversely affect that
exclusion. After the date of issuance of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds, Bond Counsel will not
undertake to determine (or to so inform any person) whether any actions taken or not taken, or any
events occurring or not occurring, or any other matters coming to Bond Counsel's attention, may
adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Tax -
Exempt Series 2009 Bonds or the market value of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds.
A portion of the interest on certain tax-exempt obligations earned by certain corporations may be
included in the calculation of adjusted current earnings for purposes of the federal corporate alternative
minimum tax, interest on certain tax-exempt obligations issued in 2009 and 2010 is excluded from that
calculation. In addition, interest on the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds may be subject to a federal branch
profits tax imposed on certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States and to a federal
tax imposed on excess net passive income of certain S corporations. Under the Code, the exclusion of
interest from gross income for federal income tax purposes may have certain adverse federal income tax
consequences on items of income, deduction or credit for certain taxpayers, including financial
institutions, certain insurance companies, recipients of Social Security and Railroad Retirement benefits,
those that are deemed to incur or continue indebtedness to acquire or carry tax-exempt obligations, and
individuals otherwise eligible for the earned income tax credit. The applicability and extent of these and
other tax consequences will depend upon the particular tax status or other tax items of the owner of the
Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds. Bond Counsel will express no opinion regarding those consequences.
Payments of interest on tax-exempt obligations, including the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds, are
generally subject to IRS Form 1099 -INT information reporting requirements. If a Series 2009 Bond owner
is subject to backup withholding under those requirements, then payments of interest will also be subject
to backup withholding. Those requirements do not affect the exclusion of such interest from gross
income for federal income tax purposes.
31
Legislation affecting tax-exempt obligations is regularly considered by the United States
Congress and may also be considered by the State legislature. Court proceedings may also be filed the
outcome of which could modify the tax treatment of obligations such as the Tax -Exempt Series 2009
Bonds. There can be no assurance that legislation enacted or proposed, or actions by a court, after the
date of issuance of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds will not have an adverse effect on the tax status of
interest on the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds or the market value of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds.
Prospective purchasers of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds should consult their own tax
advisers regarding pending or proposed federal and state tax legislation and court proceedings, and
prospective purchasers of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds at other than their original issuance at the
respective prices indicated on the [inside] cover of this Official Statement should also consult their own
tax advisers regarding other tax considerations such as the consequences of market discount, as to all of
which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion.
Bond Counsel's engagement with respect to the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds ends with the
issuance of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds, and, unless separately engaged, Bond Counsel is not
obligated to defend the City or the owners of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds regarding the tax status
of interest thereon in the event of an audit examination by the IRS. The IRS has a program to audit tax-
exempt obligations to determine whether the interest thereon is includible in gross income for federal
income tax purposes. If the IRS does audit the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds, under current IRS
procedures, the IRS will treat the City as the taxpayer and the beneficial owners of the Tax -Exempt Series
2009 Bonds will have only limited rights, if any, to obtain and participate in judicial review of such audit.
Any action of the IRS, including but not limited to selection of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds for
audit, or the course or result of such audit, or an audit of other obligations presenting similar tax issues,
may affect the market value of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds.
Original Issue Discount and Original Issue Premium
Certain of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds ("Discount Bonds") as indicated on the inside cover
of this Official Statement were offered and sold to the public at an original issue discount ("OID"). OID is
the excess of the stated redemption price at maturity (the principal amount)' over the "issue price" of a
Discount Bond. The issue price of a Discount Bond is the initial offering price to the public (other than to
bond houses, brokers or similar persons acting in the capacity of underwriters or wholesalers) at which a
substantial amount of the Discount Bonds of the same maturiq is sold pursuant to that offering. For
federal income tax purposes, OID accrues to the owner of a Discount Bond over the period to maturity
based on the constant yield method, compounded semiannually (or over a shorter permitted
compounding interval selected by the owner). The portion of OID that accrues during the period of
ownership of a Discount Bond (i) is interest excluded from the owner's gross income for federal income
tax purposes to the same extent, and subject to the same considerations discussed above, as other interest
on the Bonds, and (ii) is added to the owner's tax basis for purposes of determining gain or loss on the
maturity, redemption, prior sale or other disposition of that Discount Bond. A purchaser of a Discount
Bond in the initial public offering at the price for that Discount Bond stated on the cover of this Official
Statement who holds that Discount Bond to maturity will realize no gain or loss upon the retirement of
that Discount Bond.
32
Certain of the Tax -Exempt Series 2009 Bonds ("Premium Bonds") as indicated on the inside cover
of this Official Statement were offered and sold to the public at a price in excess of their stated
redemption price (the principal amount) at maturity. That excess constitutes bond premium. For federal
income tax purposes, bond premium is amortized over the period to maturity of a Premium Bond, based
on the yield to maturity of that Premium Bond (or, in the case of a Premium Bond callable prior to its
stated maturity, the amortization period and yield may be required to be determined on the basis of an
earlier call date that results in the lowest yield on that Premium Bond), compounded semiannually. No
portion of that bond premium is deductible by the owner of a Premium Bond. For purposes of
determining the owner's gain or loss on the sale, redemption (including redemption at maturity) or other
disposition of a Premium Bond, the owner's tax basis in the Premium Bond is reduced by the amount of
bond premium that accrues during the period of ownership. As a result, an owner may realize taxable
gain for federal income tax purposes from the sale or other disposition of a Premium Bond for an amount
equal to or less than the amount paid by the owner for that Premium Bond. A purchaser of a Premium
Bond in the initial public offering at the price for that Premium Bond stated on the cover of this Official
Statement who holds that Premium Bond to maturity (or, in the case of a callable Premium Bond, to its
earlier call date that results in the lowest yield on that Premium Bond) will realize no gain or loss upon
the retirement of that Premium Bond.
Owzzers of Discount and Premium Bonds should consult their own tax advisers as to the
determination for federal income tax purposes of the amount of OLD or bond prenziunz properly accruable or
amortizable in any period with respect to the Discount or Premium Bonds and as to other federal tax
consequences and the treatment of OID and bond premium for purposes of state and local taxes on, or based
on, income.
RATINGS
Moody's Investor's Service and Fitch have assigned underlying ratings of " ", " " and
" respectively, to the Series 2009 Bonds.
The ratings reflect only the views of said rating agencies and an explanation of the ratings may be
obtained only from said rating agencies. There is no assurance that such ratings will continue for any
given period of time or that they will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies, or any
of them, if in their judgment, circumstances so warrant. A downward change in or withdrawal of any of
such ratings may have an adverse affect on the market price of the Series 2009 Bonds.
FINANCIAL ADVISOR
The City and the Department have retained First Southwest Company, Aventura, Florida, as
Financial Advisor in connection with the City's and the Department's financing plans and with respect to
the authorization and issuance of the Series 2009 Bonds. The Financial Advisor is not obligated to
undertake and has not undertaken to independently verify or to assume responsibility for the accuracy,
completeness or fairness of the information contained in this Official Statement. The Financial Advisor
did not participate in the underwriting of the Series 2009 Bonds.

AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Basic Financial Statements of the Department for fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 and the
report thereon of KPMG LLP (the "Independent Certified Public Accountant") are attached hereto as "APPENDIX A
— AUDITED BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE DEPARTMENT FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2008." Such statements speak only as of September 30, 2008. TI -ie Independent Certified
Public Accountants has not consented to the use thereof herein. Such documents are attached hereto as a public
record. The Independent Certified Public Accountant has not been requested to review this Official
Statement in connection with the issuance of the Series 2009 Bonds.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
The City and the Department has covenanted for the benefit of the Series 2009 Bondholders to
provide certain financial information and operating data relating to the Department and the Series 2009
Bonds in each year, and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated material events. The
Department has agreed to file annual financial information and operating data and its audited financial
statements with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the "MSRB") as well as any state
information depository that is established in the State (the "SID"). Currently, there are no such SIDS. The
Department has agreed to file notices of certain enumerated material events, when and if they occur, with
the MSRB, and with the SIDS, if any. The obligation undertaken is an obligation to provide only limited
information at limited times and may not include all information necessary to value the Series 2009
Bonds.
The specific nature of the financial information, operating data, and of the type of events which
trigger a disclosure obligation, and other details of the Department's continuing disclosure undertaking
are described in "APPENDIX E - FORM OF DISCLOSURE DISSEMINATION AGENT AGREEMENT"
attached hereto. The Disclosure Dissemination Agent Agreement shall be executed by the City and the
Department prior to the issuance of the Series 2009 Bonds. These covenants have been made in order to
assist the Underwriters in complying with the continuing disclosure requirements of Rule 15c2-12
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Rule").
With respect to the Series 2009 Bonds, no party other than the City and the Department is
obligated to provide, nor is expected to provide, any continuing disclosure information with respect to
the Rule. The City and the Department have undertaken certain continuing disclosure obligations in prior
continuing disclosure certificates in connection with its outstanding debt and its outstanding Bonds to
provide certain financial and operating information and notices to each nationally recognized municipal
securities information repository then approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"NRMSIRs"), and SID, if and when one is established, and others. In 2004, the Department on behalf of
the City did not timely file certain information relating to the Series 1998 Bonds (defined herein). Upon
recognizing the omission of certain information related to the Bonds, the City promptly filed all required
information, together with a notice of late filing, with each NRMSIR. In 2009, the Department on behalf of
the City did not timely file certain information related to the Bonds. The City has determined that its non-
compliance was the result of inadvertence and not due to any conscious disregard for its duties and
responsibilities. In addition, due to a change in auditors and financial management system (which was
changed to an Enterprise Resource Planning System), the City did not timely file its 2007 annual report.
Such report has been filed, and as of the date hereof, the City and the Department are in compliance with
34
all of its continuing disclosure obligations, in all material respects, and has implemented procedures to
assure future compliance with all of its continuing disclosure obligations.
UNDERWRITING
The Series 2009 Bonds are being purchased by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as
representative of itself and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., RBC Capital Markets Corporation, Raymond
James & Associates, Inc. and Goldman Sachs & Co. (collectively, the "Underwriters") at an aggregate
purchase price of $ (the par amount of the Series 2009 Bonds, less Underwriters' discount of
$ [plus/less] net original issue premium/discount). The Underwriters' obligations are
subject to certain conditions precedent described in the Bond Purchase Agreement entered into between
the City and the Underwriters, and they will be obligated to purchase all of the Series 2009 Bonds if any
Series 2009 Bonds are purchased. The Series 2009 Bonds may be offered and sold to certain dealers
(including dealers depositing such Series 2009 Bonds into investment trusts) at prices lower than such
public offering prices, and such public offering prices may be changed, from time to time, by the
Underwriters.
CONTINGENT FEES
The City has retained Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel with respect to the authorization,
sale, execution and delivery of the Series 2009 Bonds. The Department has retained the Financial Advisor
with respect to the sale, execution and delivery of the Series 2009 Bonds. Payment of the fees of such
professionals and an underwriting discount to the Underwriters, including the fees of Underwriters'
counsel, are each contingent upon the issuance of the Series 2009 Bonds.
BOOK -ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM
THE FOLLONN71NG INFORMATION CONCERNING DTC AND DTC'S BOOK -ENTRY ONLY
SYSTEM HAS BEEN OBTAINED FROM SOURCES THAT THE CITY BELIEVES TO BE RELIABLE, BUT
NEITHER THE CITY NOR THE UNDERWRITERS TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE
ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS THEREOF.
The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, New York, will act as securities depository
for the Series 2009 Bonds. The Series 2009 Bonds will be issued as fully -registered securities registered in
the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC. One fully -registered certificate will be issued for each maturity of the
Series 2009 Bonds, each in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with
DTC.
DTC, the world's largest securities depository, is a limited -purpose trust company organized
under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York
Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of
the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions
of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over
3.5 million issues of U.S. and non -U.S. equity, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market
instruments from over 100 countries that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC.
DTC also facilitates the post -trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities
35
transactions in deposited securities through electronic computerized book -entry transfers and pledges
between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities
certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust
companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC,
National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are
registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC
system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks,
trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a
Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has Standard & Poor's
highest rating: AAA. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at ivww.dtcc.com and www.dtc.or�.
Purchases of Series 2009 Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct
Participants, which will receive a credit for the Series 2009 Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership
interest of each actual purchaser of each Series 2009 Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded
on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation
from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations
providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or
Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of
ownership interests in the Series 2009 Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of
Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners, Beneficial Owners will not receive
certificates representing their ownership interests in Series 2009 Bonds, except in the event that use of the
book -entry system for the Series 2009 Bonds is discontinued.
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Series 2009 Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with
DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co. or such other name as may be
requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Series 2009 Bonds with DTC and their
registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee do not effect any change in beneficial
ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Series 2009 Bonds; DTC's
records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Series 2009 Bonds are
credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will
remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct
Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial
Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time.
Beneficial Owners of Series 2009 Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the
transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Series 2009 Bonds, such as
redemptions and proposed amendments to the Series 2009 Bond documents. For example, Beneficial
Owners of Series 2009 Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Series 2009 Bonds for
their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial
Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the Registrar and request that copies of
36
notices be provided directly to them.
Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Series 2009 Bonds are being
redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in
such issue to be redeemed.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to
the Series 2009 Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI
Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the City as soon as possible
after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those
Direct Participants to whose accounts the Series 2009 Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in
a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
Principal, premium, if any, and interest payments on the Series 2009 Bonds will be made to Cede
& Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's
practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts, upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail
information from the City on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on
DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions
and customary practices, as is the case with Series 2009 Bonds held for the accounts of customers in
bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of
DTC, the Paying Agent or the City, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect
from time to time. Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest payments to Cede & Co. (or such
other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the
City or the Paying Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility
of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct
and Indirect Participants.
DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Series
2009 Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the City. Under such circumstances, in the event
that a successor securities depository is not obtained, Series 2009 Bond certificates are required to be
printed and delivered.
The City may decide to discontinue use of the system of book -entry only transfers through DTC
(or a successor securities depository). In that event, Series 2009 Bond certificates will be printed and
delivered to DTC. Thereafter, Series 2009 Bond certificates may be transferred and exchanged as
described in the Resolution. See "-Registration, Transfer and Exchange" herein.
THE CITY AND THE PAYING AGENT WILL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION
TO THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS, DTC PARTICIPANTS OR THE PERSONS FOR WHOM DTC
PARTICIPANTS ACT AS NOMINEES WITH RESPECT TO THE SERIES 2009 BONDS, FOR THE
ACCURACY OF RECORDS OF DTC, CEDE & CO. OR ANY DTC PARTICIPANT WITH RESPECT TO
THE SERIES 2009 BONDS OR THE PROVIDING OF NOTICE OR PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL, OR
INTEREST, OR ANY PREMIUM ON THE SERIES 2009 BONDS, TO DTC PARTICIPANTS OR
BENEFICIAL OWNERS, OR THE SELECTION OF SERIES 2009 BONDS FOR REDEMPTION.
37
ENFORCEABILITY OF REMEDIES
The remedies available to the owners of the Series 2009 Bonds upon an event of default under the
Bond Ordinance are in many respects dependent upon judicial actions which are often subject to
discretion and delay. Under existing constitutional and statutory lase and judicial decisions, including
specifically the federal bankruptcy code, the remedies specified by the Bond Ordinance and the Series
2009 Bonds may not be readily available or may be limited. The various legal opinions to be delivered
concurrently with the delivery of the Series 2009 Bonds, including Bond Counsel's approving opinion,
will be qualified, as to the enforceability of the remedies provided in the various legal instruments, by
limitations imposed by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the rights
of creditors enacted before or after such delivery.

AUDITED BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE DEPARTMENT
FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
APPENDIX B
GENERAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA, MIAMI-
DADE COUNTY AND THE DEPARTMENT OF OFF-STREET PARKING
THE DEPARTMENT AND THE BOARD
The Board
The Department of Off -Street Parking of the City of Miami (the 'Department") is governed by
the five -member City of Miami, Florida Department of Off -Street Parking Board (the 'Board"). Each
member of the Board must either reside or have his or her principal place of business in the City and serves a
five-year term. No official or employee of the City may serve as a member of the Board while so
employed by the City. At least ten days prior to the expiration of the term of a Board member, the
successor thereto is required to be appointed by the remaining Board members, subject to confirmation by
the City Commission. Any Board member may be removed by the City Commission for good cause, but if
so removed, may apply for Circuit Court review of the action of the City Commission.
Budget Process
The Charter requires that all budgets, funds and accounts pertaining to the Department be
segregated from all other budgets, funds and accounts of the City.
The Bond Ordinance provides that on or before the 90th day next preceding the
beginning of each Fiscal Year, the Department shall prepare a preliminary budget for the ensuing
Fiscal Year for the Parking System in the form of the budget then required by law and shall file copies of
each such preliminary budget with the Trustee and mail copies to the Parking Consultant.
Each budget is required to be prepared in such manner as to specify Current Expenses and the
amounts to be deposited in the various Funds and Accounts created by the Bond Ordinance during the
Fiscal Year for which such budget was prepared. The budget shall be accompanied by a pro forma
statement of Revenues, Current Expenses and rates, fees, rentals and charges estimated to be necessary to
meet the requirements of the Bond Ordinance and shall include or make reference to a Capital Funds Budget
that shows separately the amounts to be deposited in the General Reserve Account during the Fiscal Year
for which the budget is prepared for the purpose of financing additions, extensions and improvements to
the Parking System and the amounts to be expended during such Fiscal Year from money in the General
Reserve Account and the Construction Fund.
On or before the first day of each Fiscal Year, the City and the Board are required to adopt the
budget for the Parking System (which budget together with any amendments thereof or supplements thereto as
permitted under the Bond Ordinance is herein collectively called the "Annual Budget"). Copies of the
Annual Budget are to be filed with the Trustee, mailed by the Department to the Parking Consultant,
Moody's, S&P, Fitch, and any Bond Insurer and each Bondholder requesting the same in writing, and
made available for inspection at the office of the Chief Financial Officer.
B-1
If the City and the Board have not adopted the Annual Budget before the first day of any Fiscal Year,
the preliminary budget for such Fiscal Year or, if there is none, the budget for the preceding Fiscal Year, shall
be deemed to be in force and effect. For Fiscal Year 2008-2009, the Department's Annual Budget was adopted
by the Board and approved by the City Commission on September 25, 2008.
Financial Operations
The Department follows generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) applicable to
governmental units. Departmental accounting records are maintained on an accrual basis.
The Department utilizes a custom-designed computerized garage revenue control system which
significantly improves accuracy of daily audits of garage operations. The revenue control system, by use of a
magnetic stripe reader, automatically enters and records all ticket transaction information into the computer to
enhance the internal accounting controls of the Department.
Pension Plan
The Department is the sole sponsor of a defined benefit pension plan (the "Pension Plan") which covers
all of the eligible full-time employees of the Department The Pension Plan is subject to the provisions
for the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974. It has met the ERISA's minimum
funding requirements as of fiscal year ended September 30, 2008. A Retirement Board (the "Retirement
Board"), which consists of the Department's Board members, controls and manages the operation and
administration of the Plan as well as serves as an investment committee. A local financial institution
serves as the trustee of the Pension Plan (the "Pension Trustee"). The assets of the Pension Plan are
managed by the Pension Trustee and the Retirement Board.
The Pension Plan, effective since November 14, 1971, requires contributions from employees at a
rate of 6-1/2 percent of their base salaries. The Department's contribution is equal to the remaining amount
necessary to fund the Pension Plan adequately.
In accordance with the Pension Plan, the Department is required to fund liabilities of the Pension Plan
based upon actuarial valuations. Certified actuarial valuations of the Pension Plan are required every
three years, although it has been the policy of the Retirement Board created under the terms of the Pension
Plan to obtain actuarial valuations at the end of each Fiscal Year.
The Department's annual pension cost and net pension (credit) obligation (from) to the pension plan
for the Fiscal Years ended September 30, 2007 and 2008 were as follows:
2008 2007
Annual required contribution S 406,440 $ 502,468

The Department's pension expense for the Fiscal Years ended September 30, 2007 and 2008
amounted to $504,147 and $406,440, respectively. The Department's pension expense for the Fiscal Year
ended September 30, 2009 will be $499,914 as determined by the Acutary's Report for the Department
dated as of October 1, 2008.
Other Post Employment Benefits
In accordance with Section 112.0801, Florida Statutes, the Department, separately from the City,
provides medical coverage to its retirees. Although not required by law, the Department pays a portion of
such cost of participation for its retirees, including those of the Department. As with all governmental
entities providing similar plans, the Department, separately from the City will be required to
comply with the Governmental Accounting Standard's Board Statement No. 45 - Accounting and
Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other than Pensions ("GASB 45") no later
than the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008. GASB 45 applies accounting methodology similar to that
used for pension liabilities to other post employment benefits ("OPEB") and attempts to more fully reveal
the costs of employment by requiring governmental units to include future OPEB costs in their financial
statements. While GASB 45 requires recognition and disclosure of the unfunded OPEB liability, there is
no requirement that the liability of such plan be funded.
The Department has received an actuarial valuation of the OPEB liability as of March 1, 2007. The
Actuarial Report dated November 21, 2007, provides that assuming that the Department's retiree benefit
remains unfunded, the accrued actuarial liability (the "AAL") as of March 1, 2007 is projected to be
$349,000 for the Department. The Department is financing the OPEB on a pay -as -you -go -basis. The annual
required contribution, (the "ARC") for Fiscal Year 2008 for the Department was approximately $49,000 if
the unfunded actuarial liability at transition is amortized over 30 years. The Department made a
contribution of $46,000 and has a net OPEB obligation of $3,000. [No acturial valuation has been
completed for Fiscal Year 2009 yet.] The Department's employees are not considered City employees.
The City has its own separate OPEB requirement.

THE CITY OF MIAMI AND MIAMI-DADE COUNTY
General
Now 113 years old, the City of Miami, Florida (the "City") is part of the nation's seventh
largest metropolitan area. Incorporated in 1896, the City is the only major municipality conceived and
founded by a woman, Julia Tuttle. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the City's population in 1900
was 1,700 people. Today it is a city rich in cultural and ethnic diversity with more than 424,662
residents, 58.9% of them foreign born. In physical size the City is not large, encompassing only 34.3
square miles. The City is situated at the mouth of the Miami River on the western shore of Biscayne
Bay, the main port entry in Florida. The City is the southernmost major city and seaport in the
continental United States. The nearest foreign territory is the Bahamian Island of Bimini, 50 miles from

supported by an opinion of counsel expert in federal securities laws acceptable to both the Issuer and the
