• <br />* The City reserves the right, after proposals are opened and prior to award, to increase or reduce the principal <br />amount of the Bonds offered for sale. Any such increase or reduction will be made in multiples of $5,000 in any <br />of the maturities. In the event the principal amount of the Bonds is increased or reduced, any premium offered <br />or any discount taken by the successful bidder will be increased or reduced by a percentage equal to the <br />percentage by which the principal amount of the Bonds is increased or reduced. <br />Proposals for the Bonds may contain a maturity schedule providing for a combination of serial <br />bonds and term bonds. All term bonds shall be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption <br />and must conform to the maturity schedule set forth above at a price of par plus accrued interest <br />to the date of redemption. In order to designate term bonds, the proposal must specify "Years of <br />Term Maturities" in the spaces provided on the Proposal Form. <br />BOOK ENTRY SYSTEM <br />The Bonds will be issued by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of <br />Bonds made to the public.

Individual <br />purchases of the Bonds may be made in the principal amount of $5,000 or any multiple thereof <br />of a single maturity through book entries made on the books and records of DTC and its <br />participants. Principal and interest are payable by the registrar to DTC or its nominee as <br />registered owner of the Bonds.
