Section 302. Determination of Interest Rates and Interest Periods
During Commercial Paper Mode.
(a) Interest Periods in a Commercial Paper Mode shall be
of such duration, of at least one day and not more than 270 days, ending
on a day next preceding a Business Day or the Maturity Date, as the
Remarketing Agent shall determine in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 302; provided, however, no Interest Period shall extend
beyond the date which is five days prior to the Expiration Date of the
Liquidity Facility. In making the determinations with respect to Interest
Periods, subject to the limitations imposed by the preceding sentence, the
Remarketing Agent shall on each Rate Determination Date select for each
2004 Bond then subject to such adjustment the Interest Period which, if
implemented on such Rate Determination Date, would result in the
Remarketing Agent being able to remarket such 2004 Bond at par in the
secondary market at the lowest interest rate then available and for the
longest Interest Period available at such rate, provided that if on any Rate
Determination Date, the Remarketing Agent determines that current or
anticipated future market conditions or anticipated future events are such
that a different Interest Period would result in a lower average interest
cost on such 2004 Bond, then the Remarketing Agent shall select the
Interest Period which, in the judgment of the Remarketing Agent,
would permit such 2004 Bond to achieve such lower average interest
cost; provided, however, that if the Remarketing Agent has received
notice from the City that any 2004 Bond is to be changed from the
Commercial Paper Mode to any other Mode or if it is to be purchased
pursuant to Section 505 hereof, the Remarketing Agent shall, with
respect to such 2004 Bond, select Interest Periods which do not
extend beyond the Mandatory Purchase Date.
(b) By 1:00 p.m. on each Rate Determination Date, the
Remarketing Agent shall, with respect to each Commercial Paper Rate
Bond that is subject to adjustment on such Date, determine an interest
rate for the Interest Period then selected for such 2004 Bond and, no later
than 1:00 p.m., shall give notice by Electronic Means to the City and the
City of Miami Page 31 of 63 Printed On: 8/23/2016

Period, to the interest rate (including the Alternate Rate, if applicable),
Interest Period and Purchase Date then applicable thereto and to have
further agreed to tender such 2004 Bond to the Tender Agent for purchase
on the next succeeding Purchase Date at the Purchase Price. Such
Holder further acknowledges that if funds for such purchase are on
deposit with the Tender Agent on such Purchase Date, such Holder shall
have no rights under the 1998 Bond Ordinance or this Series Ordinance
other than to receive the payment of such Purchase Price and that interest
shall cease to accrue to such owner on such Purchase Date.
Section 303. Determination of Interest Rate During Daily Mode.
The interest rate for any 2004 Bond in the Daily Mode shall be the rate of interest
per annum determined by the Remarketing Agent on or before 9:30 a.m. on the
Rate Determination Date as the minimum rate of interest that, in the sole
judgment of the Remarketing Agent, would, under then existing market
conditions, result in the sale of the 2004 Bonds in the Daily Mode on the Rate
Determination Date at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued
interest, if any. The Remarketing Agent shall make the rate available by
Electronic Means to each other Notice Party by 10:30 a.m., on the Rate
Determination Date. With respect to any day that is not a Business Day, the
interest rate shall be the same rate as the interest rate established for the
immediately preceding Business Day. The determination of each interest rate by
the Remarketing Agent shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and
binding upon the Remarketing Agent, the Tender Agent, the Paying Agent, the
Liquidity Facility Issuer, the City and the Holders of the 2004 Bonds.
Section 304. Determination of Interest Rate During Weekly Mode.
The interest rate for 2004 Bonds in a Weekly Mode for each Interest Period shall
be the rate of interest per annum determined by the Remarketing Agent on and
as of the applicable Rate Determination Date as the minimum rate of interest
that, in the sole judgment of the Remarketing Agent, would, under then existing
market conditions, result in the sale of the 2004 Bonds in the Weekly Mode on
the Rate Determination Date at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued interest, if any. The Remarketing Agent shall make the rate available by
Electronic Means to each other Notice Party by 4:00 p.m., on the Business Day
immediately succeeding the Rate Determination Date. The determination of each
interest rate by the Remarketing Agent shall be conclusive and binding, in the
absence of manifest error, upon the Remarketing Agent, the Tender Agent, the

established by the City.
(b) Fixed Rate. The Fixed Rate to be effective for the
Interest Period commencing on any Mode Change Date after which 2004
Bonds will bear interest at a Fixed Rate shall be determined by the
Remarketing Agent. No later than 4:00 p.m. on the Business Day next
preceding the Mode Change Date, the Remarketing Agent shall determine
the Fixed Rate and shall make the Fixed Rate available by Electronic

the Rate Determination Date taking into consideration the duration of the
Interest Period.
Section 306. Failure to Establish Term Rate or Fixed Rate. If, for
any reason, a Term Rate or Fixed Rate cannot be established on a Purchase
Date, the 2004 Bonds, other than 2004 Bonds in an Auction Rate Mode, will be
changed automatically to the Weekly Mode on the Purchase Date.
Section 307. Alternate Rate for Interest Calculation. If the
Remarketing Agent fails to determine the interest rate(s) or Interest Periods with
respect to the 2004 Bonds, or if the method of determining the interest rate(s) or
Interest Periods with respect to the 2004 Bonds shall be held to be
unenforceable by a court of law of competent jurisdiction, then the 2004 Bonds
shall thereupon (until such time as the Remarketing Agent again makes such
determination, or until there is delivered to the City and the Remarketing Agent
an opinion of Bond Counsel regarding the tax-exempt status of the 2004 Bonds)
bear interest at the Weekly Rate in the case of Commercial Paper Rate Bonds

rescinded upon the occurrence of any other event, and any
conditional notice so given may be rescinded at any time before
payment of such Redemption Price and accrued interest if any
such condition so specified is not satisfied or if any such other

Paying Agent to affected Holders of 2004 Bonds as promptly as
practicable upon the failure of such condition or the occurrence
of such other event.

mandatory tender given by it to the other Notice Parties. Any notice
mailed as provided in this Section 506 shall be conclusively presumed to

notice shall not affect the validity of the action described in such notice.
Failure by the Paying Agent to give a notice as provided in this Section

Taxable 2004 Bonds and 2004 Bonds issued with the intent that they shall
constitute "private activity 2004 Bonds" under Section 141 (a) of the Code,
to be classified as "private activity 2004 Bonds" under Section 141(a) of
