Any increased costs of issuance of the Bonds resulting from such purchase of <br />insurance shall be paid by the purchaser, except that, if the City has requested and received a <br />rating on the Bonds from a rating agency, the City will pay that rating fee. Any other rating <br />agency fees shall be the responsibility of the purchaser. <br />Failure of the municipal bond insurer to issue the policy after Bonds have been awarded to the <br />purchaser shall not constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery on <br />the Bonds. <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 at a place mutually satisfactory to the City and the purchaser.

On the date of settlement payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal, or <br />equivalent, funds which shall be received at the offices of the City or its designee not later than <br />12:00 Noon, Central Time. Except as compliance with the terms of payment for the Bonds shall <br />have been made impossible by action of the City, or its agents, the purchaser shall be liable to <br />the City for any Toss suffered by the City by reason of the purchaser's non-compliance with said <br />terms for payment. <br />CONTINUING DISCLOSURE <br />In accordance with SEC Rule 15c2 -12(b)(5), the City will undertake, pursuant to the resolution <br />awarding sale of the Bonds, to provide annual reports and notices of certain events.
