the Bonds outstanding.
(b) Into the Reserve Account, in substantially
equal monthly payments and to be accumulated in full
by no later than June 1, 1981, an amount which,
with the money in the Reserve Account, will be at
least equal to the next year's debt service on all
outstanding bonds payable out of the Bond Fund, and
the City further covenants that additional payments
shall be made into the Reserve Account if necessary
so that there shall be on deposit therein at all times
after such five year period an amount at least equal

bonds payable out of the Bond Fund until there is a
sufficient amount in the Principal and Interest Account

in the Reserve Account may be used to pay such principal,
call premium, if any, and interest.
In the event that there shall be a deficiency in the
Principal and Interest Account to meet maturing installments of
ME
either principal or interest, as the case may be, on any bonds
payable out of the Bond Fund, such deficiency shall be made up from

in the official bank depository of the City, or may be invested in
direct obligations of the United States Government, having a
guaranteed redemption price prior to maturity or maturing not later
than twelve years from the date of purchase, and, in no event,
maturing later than the last maturity of any bonds payable out of
the Bond Fund outstanding at the time of such purchase. Interest
earned on any such investment or on such bank deposit shall be
deposited in and become part of the Reserve Account until the
total required reserve amount shall have been accumulated therein,

the City are hereby pledged to the payments as are required by this
ordinance, and the Bonds shall constitute a charge or lien upon such
revenues prior and superior to any other charges whatsoever, excluding

charge or lien upon such gross revenues for the 1963 Bonds, Issue
No. 1, the 1963 Bonds, Issue No. 2, the 1964 Bonds, the 1970 Bonds
prior to their payment and retirement on December 1, 1935, the 1973

revenues and benefits to be derived from the operation and maintenance
-10-

expenses of operation and maintenance thereof and the debt service
on the 1963 bonds, Issue No. 1, 1963 Bonds, Issue No. 2, 1964 Bonds,
1970 Bonds (prior to the payment and retirement of such outstanding
1970 Bonds on December 1, 1985) and the 1973 Refunding Bonds (after

1985) and to permit the setting aside into the Bond Fund out of the
gross revenues of the Water System of amounts sufficient to pay the
interest on the Bonds as such interest becomes payable and to pay
and redeem all of the Bonds at maturity. The City Council and
corporate authorities of the City further hereby declare that in
creating the Bond Fund and in fixing the amounts to be paid into
the same as aforesaid they have exercised due regard for the cost
of operation and maintenance of the Water System and the debt service
requirements of the presently outstanding bonds above referred to,
and the City has not bound and obligated itself to set aside and
pay into the Bond Fund a greater amount or proportion of the revenues
of the Water System than in the judgment of the City Council will
be available over and above such costs of maintenance and operation
and debt service requirements of said outstanding bonds and that no
portion of the Water System has been previously pledged for any
indebtedness other than the outstanding bond issues above referred to.

and holder of each bond at any time outstanding, as follows:

to pay the principal of and interest on all Bonds
and Parity Revenue Bonds at that time outstanding,
and it will not sell, lease, mortgage, or in any
manner encumber or dispose of any part of the prop-
erty of the Water System unless provision is made
for replacement thereof or for payment into the
Bond Fund of the total amount of revenue received,
which shall not be less than an amount which shall
bear the same ratio to the amount of outstanding
bonds payable from the Bond Fund as the revenue
available for debt service for those outstanding
bonds for the twelve months preceding such sale,
lease, mortgage, encumbrance, or disposal from the
portion of the Water System sold, leased, mortgaged,
encumbered or disposed of bears to the revenue
available for debt service for such bonds from the
entire Water System for the sarue period. Any money
so paid into the Bond Fund shall be used to retire
such outstanding bonds at the earliest possible date.
(d) It will while any of the Bonds remain out-
standing, keep proper and separate accounts and
records in which complete and separate entries shall
be made of all transactions relating to its Water
System and it will furnish the original purchaser
or purchasers of the Bonds or any subsequent holder
or holders thereof at the written request of such
holder or holders, complete operating and income
statements of the Water System in reasonable detail
covering any calendar year not more than ninety days
after the close of such calendar year. It will grant
any holder or holders of at least twenty-five percent
of the outstanding Bonds the right at all reasonable
times to inspect the Water System and all records,
accounts and data of the City relating thereto. Upon
the request of any holder of any of the Bonds, it will
furnish such holder a copy of the most recently com-
pleted audit of the City's accounts by the State
Auditor of Washington.
-12-
(e) It will not furnish any water (or any sanitary
sewage disposal service should the sanitary sewerage
system ever be combined with the Water System) to any
customer whatsoever free of charge, and it will promptly
take legal action to enforce the collection of all
delinquent accounts.
(f) It will carry the types of insurance on its
Water System properties in the amounts normally carried
by private water companies engaged in the operation of
Water Systems, and the cost of such insurance shall be
considered a part of operating and maintaining the Water
System. If, as, and when the United States of America
or some agency thereof shall provide for war risk
insurance, the City further agrees to take out and
maintain such insurance on all or such portions of the
Water System on which such war risk insurance may be
written in an amount or amounts to cover adequately
the value thereof.
(g) It will pay all costs of maintenance and
operation of the Water System and the debt service
requirements for the outstanding 1963 Bonds, Issue
No. 1, 1963 Bonds, Issue No. 2, 1964 Bonds, 1970
Bonds (prior to their redemption on December 1,
1985), 1973 Refunding Bonds (after the payment and
retirement of the outstanding 1970 Bonds on December 1,
1985) , the Bonds and any Parity Revenue Bonds and
otherwise meet the obligations of the City as herein
set forth.
(h) It will make no use of the proceeds of the
Bonds or other funds of the City at any time during
the term of the Bonds which, if such use had been
reasonably expected at the date that the Bonds are
issued, would have caused such Bonds to be arbitrage
bonds within the meaning of Section 103(d) of the
United States Internal Revenue Code of 1954, and
for this purpose it further covenants that none
of the proceeds of the Bonds or the investment of
such proceeds will be used to acquire obligations the
adjusted yield on which will exceed the adjusted yield
produced by the Bonds, both such adjusted yields being
computed pursuant and subject to the requirements and
exceptions of Sections 1.103-13 and 1.103-14 of the
regulations proposed by the United States Treasury
Department published in the Federal Register on May 3,
1973, and December 3, 1975, as the same may be changed
from time to time or any other applicable regulations
hereafter adopted.
Section 10. The City covenants and agrees with the
holder or holders of each Bond at any time outstanding that it will
not issue any Parity Revenue Bonds unless it shall first satisfy the
conditions set forth for the issuance of such Parity Revenue Bonds
in Section 9 of Ordinance No. 1178, which section is by this reference
incorporated herein and made a part hereof and shall be applicable
so long as any Bonds are outstanding.

best interests of the City to accept the same, accepted such offer on
