• <br />• <br />If a Financial Surety Bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to issue <br />such a bond in the State of Minnesota and pre- approved by the City. Such bond must be <br />submitted to Springsted Incorporated prior to the opening of the proposals. The Financial <br />Surety Bond must identify each underwriter whose Deposit is guaranteed by such Financial <br />Surety Bond. If the Bonds are awarded to an underwriter using a Financial Surety Bond, then <br />that underwriter is required to submit its Deposit to the City in the form of a certified or cashier's <br />check or wire transfer as instructed by Springsted Incorporated not later than 3:30 P.M., Central <br />Time on the next business day following the award. If such Deposit is not received by that time, <br />the Financial Surety Bond may be drawn by the City to satisfy the Deposit requirement. <br />The Deposit received from the purchaser, the amount of which will be deducted at settlement, <br />will be deposited by the City and no interest will accrue to the purchaser. In the event the <br />purchaser fails to comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be retained by the City. <br />AWARD <br />The Bonds will be awarded on the basis of the lowest interest rate to be determined on a true <br />interest cost (TIC) basis calculated on the proposal prior to any adjustment made by the City. <br />The City's computation of the interest rate of each proposal, in accordance with customary <br />practice, will be controlling. <br />The City will reserve the right to: (i) waive non - substantive informalities of any proposal or of <br />matters relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (ii) reject all proposals <br />without cause, and (iii) reject any proposal that the City determines to have failed to comply with <br />the terms herein. <br />CUSIP NUMBERS <br />If the Bonds qualify for assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the <br />Bonds, but neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect <br />thereto will constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery of the <br />Bonds. The CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of CUSIP identification numbers <br />shall be paid by the purchaser. <br />SETTLEMENT <br />Within 40 days following the date of their award, the Bonds will be delivered without cost to the <br />purchaser through DTC in New York, New York. Delivery will be subject to receipt by the <br />purchaser of an approving legal opinion of Kennedy & Graven, Chartered of Minneapolis, <br />Minnesota, and of customary closing papers, including a no- litigation certificate. On the date of <br />settlement, payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal, or equivalent, funds that shall be <br />received at the offices of the City or its designee not later than 12:00 Noon, Central Time. <br />Unless compliance with the terms of payment for the Bonds has been made impossible by <br />action of the City, or its agents, the purchaser shall be liable to the City for any Toss suffered by <br />the City by reason of the purchaser's non - compliance with said terms for payment. <br />CONTINUING DISCLOSURE <br />Participating underwriters need not comply with the continuing disclosure requirements of <br />Rule 15c2 -12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities <br />Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Rule "), because the offering is in a principal amount less than <br />$1,000,000. The City will enter into a Continuing Disclosure Certificate pursuant to which it will <br />• covenant to provide certain financial information or operating data that is customarily prepared <br />and is publicly available and notices of certain material events to the limited extent required by <br />424543v1 SJB LN140 -110 <br />A -5 <br />
