The Registrar shall furnish the Authority with appropriate certificates of destruction of such Bonds. Section 3.11: Mutilated, Lost, or Stolen Bonds. Upon the presentation and surrender to the Registrar of a mutilated Bond, the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a replacement Bond of like maturity, interest rate and principal amount, bearing a #5631441.10 -8- number not contemporaneously outstanding. The Authority or the Registrar may require the Owner of such Bond to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith and any other expenses connected therewith, including the fees and expenses of the Registrar. If any Bond is lost, apparently destroyed, or wrongfully taken, the Authority, pursuant to the applicable laws of the State of Texas and in the absence of notice or knowledge that such Bond has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, shall authorize and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver a replacement Bond of like maturity, interest rate and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, provided that the Owner thereof shall have: (1) furnished to the Authority and the Registrar satisfactory evidence of the ownership of and the circumstances of the loss, destruction or theft of such Bond; (2) furnished such security or indemnity as may be required by the Registrar and the Authority to save them harmless; (3) paid all expenses and charges in connection therewith, including, but not limited to, printing costs, legal fees, fees of the Registrar and any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed; and (4) met any other reasonable requirements of the Authority and the Registrar.

If any such mutilated, lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken Bond has become or is about to become due and payable, the Authority in its discretion may, instead of issuing a replacement Bond, authorize the Registrar to pay such Bond. Each replacement Bond delivered in accordance with this Section shall be entitled to the benefits and security of this Resolution to the same extent as the Bond or Bonds in lieu of which such replacement Bond is delivered. Section 3.12: Book -Entry System. (a) The Initial Bond shall be registered in the name of Initial Purchaser.

The Authority covenants and agrees not to take any action, or knowingly omit to take any action within its control, that, if taken or omitted, respectively, would cause the Bonds to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code and the Regulations, except as permitted by section 149(b)(3) of the Code and the Regulations. Section 8.4: Bonds are not Hedge Bonds. The Authority covenants and agrees not to take any action, or knowingly omit to take any action, and has not knowingly omitted and will not knowingly omit to take any action, within its control, that, if taken or omitted, respectively, would cause the Bonds to be "hedge bonds" within the meaning of section 149(g) of the Code and the Regulations. Section 8.5: No -Arbitrage. The Authority covenants and agrees that it will make such use of the proceeds of the Bonds, including interest or other investment income derived from Bond proceeds, regulate investments of proceeds of the Bonds, and take such other and further action as may be required so that the Bonds will not be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of section 148(a) of the Code and the Regulations. The Authority will certify, through an authorized officer, employee or agent that based upon all facts and estimates known or reasonably expected to be in existence on the date the Bonds are delivered, the Authority will reasonably expect that the proceeds of the Bonds will not be used in a manner that would cause the Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of section 148(a) of the Code and the Regulations. Section 8.6: Arbitrage Rebate. If the Authority does not qualify for an exception to the requirements of section 148(f) of the Code, the Authority will take all necessary steps to comply with the requirement that certain amounts earned by the Authority on the investment of the "gross proceeds" of the Bonds (within the meaning of section 148(f)(6)(B) of the Code) be rebated to the federal government. Specifically, the Authority will (i) maintain records regarding #5631441.10 -21- the investment of the gross proceeds of the Bonds as may be required to calculate the amount earned on the investment of the gross proceeds of the Bonds separately from records of amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts of the Authority allocable to other bond issue of the Authority or moneys which do not represent gross proceeds of any bonds of the Authority, (ii) calculate at such times as are required by the Regulations, the amount earned from the investment of the gross proceeds of the Bonds which is required to be rebated to the federal government, and (iii) pay, not less often than every fifth anniversary date of the delivery of the Bonds or on such other dates as may be permitted under the Regulations, all amounts required to be rebated to the federal government. Further, the Authority will not indirectly pay any amount otherwise payable to the federal government pursuant to the foregoing requirements to any person other than the federal government by entering into any investment arrangement with respect to the gross proceeds of the Bonds that might result in a reduction in the amount required to be paid to the federal government because such arrangement results in a smaller profit or a larger loss than would have resulted if the arrangement had been at arm's length and had the yield on the issue not been relevant to either party. Section 8.7: Information Reporting. The Authority covenants and agrees to file or cause to be filed with the Secretary of the Treasury, not later than the 15th day of the second calendar month after the close of the calendar quarter in which the Bonds are issued, an information statement concerning the Bonds, all under and in accordance with section 149(e) of the Code and the Regulations. Section 8.8: Record Retention. The Authority will retain all pertinent and material records relating to the use and expenditure of the proceeds of the Bonds until six years after the last Bond is redeemed, or such shorter period as authorized by subsequent guidance issued by the Department of Treasury, if applicable. All records will be kept in a manner that ensures their complete access throughout the retention period. For this purpose, it is acceptable that such records are kept either as hardcopy books and records or in an electronic storage and retrieval system, provided that such electronic system includes reasonable controls and quality assurance programs that assure the ability of the Authority to retrieve and reproduce such books and records in the event of an examination of the Bonds by the Internal Revenue Service. Section 8.9: Registration. The Bonds will be issued in registered form. Section 8.10: Continuing Obligation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution, the Authority's obligations under the covenants and provisions of this Article shall survive the defeasance and discharge of the Bonds.

If the Authority so amends the provisions of this Article, it shall include with any amended financial information or operating data next provided in accordance with Section 10.1 an explanation, in narrative form, of the reasons for the amendment and of the impact of any change in the type of financial information or operating data so provided.
