part. Pursuant to Section 6 of the Resolution, the Note shall not be transferred until the new

incorporated hereby as Exhibit B. In the case of any h reg . tion of transfer, the City shall
execute and deliver in exchange for the Note ew ote r :istered in the name of the
transferee. In all cases in which the Note shall be t rred hereunder, the City shall execute
and deliver at the earliest practicable time a . Not accordance with the provisions of this

entity other than the City with respe- o s h r: 'stration of transfer, but no other charge shall
be made for registering the trans • e granted. The Note shall be issued in fully
registered form and shall be plawful coin or currency of the United States.
The registration of fer o he Note on the registration books of the City shall be
deemed to effect a transfer of t i. s and obligations of the Lender under this Agreement to
the transferee. Thereafter, such ansferee shall be deemed to be the Lender under this
Agreement and shall be bound by all provisions of this Agreement that are binding upon the
Lender. The City and the transferor shall execute and record such instruments and take such
other actions as the City and such transferee may reasonably request in order to confirm that
such transferee has succeeded to the capacity of Lender under this Agreement and the Note.
The registered owner of the Note is hereby granted power to transfer absolute title
thereof by assignment thereof to a bona fide purchaser for value (present or antecedent)
without notice of prior defenses or equities or claims of ownership enforceable against such
owner's assignor or any person in the chain of title and before the maturity of the Note;
provided, however, that the Note may be transferred only in whole and not in part and only to
an "accredited investor" or "qualified institutional buyer" which has received prior written
consent of the City, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and which has executed and
provided the required "sophisticated lender letter" to the City prior to such transfer. Any
transferee by acceptance of the Note shall be deemed to certify that it is an "accredited
investor" or a "qualified institutional buyer." Every prior registered owner of the Note shall be
deemed to have waived and renounced all of such owner's equities or rights therein in favor of
13
every such bona fide purchaser, and every such bona fide purchaser shall acquire absolute title
thereto and to all rights represented thereby.
In the event any Note is mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the City shall execute a
new Note of like date and denomination as that mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, provided
that, in the case of any mutilated Note, such mutilated Note shall first be surrendered to the
City, and in the case of any lost, stolen, or destroyed Note, there first shall be furnished to the
City evidence of such loss, theft or destruction together with an indemnity satisfactory to the
City's Risk Management Director, the City Attorney and Note Counsel.

in whole on any Interest Payment Date at the prepayment price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the Note.
