The Fund shall be maintained in the manner herein specified until all of the Bonds and any other general obligation tax increment bonds hereafter made payable from the Fund and issued for the Project, including any modifications or additions thereto, and the interest thereon have been fully paid and the City has been fully reimbursed from the pledge of Tax Increments for all of the principal and interest of such bonds paid by the City from taxes levied on property in the City other than the Tax Increment District. There shall be maintained in the Fund two (2) separate accounts to be designated the "Payment Account" and "Debt Service Account", respectively. (a) Payment Account. The proceeds of the Bonds, less accrued interest, and less any amount paid for the Bonds in excess of $1,853,000, shall be deposited in the Payment Account. On or prior to February 1, 2001, the Clerk -Treasurer shall transfer $1,825,000 of the proceeds of the Bonds from the Payment Account to the paying agent for the 1998C Bonds, which sum is sufficient, together with other funds on deposit in the debt service fund for the 1998C Bonds, to pay the principal and interest due on the 1998C Bonds on February 1, 2001. The remainder of the monies in the Payment Account shall be used to pay the costs of issuance of the Bonds. Any monies remaining in the Payment Account after payment of all costs of issuance and payment of the 1998C Bonds shall be transferred to the Debt Service Account. (b) Debt Service Account. To the Debt Service Account, there shall be credited (1) all accrued interest received upon delivery of the Bonds; (2) all funds paid for the Bonds in excess of $1,853,000; (3) any balance remaining on February 1, 2001, in the 1998C Bonds Debt Service Account created by the Prior Resolution; (4) any uncollected Tax Increments which were heretofore pledged for the payment of the refunded Bonds and are herein pledged to the payment 1221%8.1 18 of the Bonds in an amount sufficient, together with other sums herein pledged, to pay the annual principal and interest payments on the Bonds; (5) any collections of all taxes which may hereafter be levied in the event that the Tax Increments and other sums herein pledged to the payment of the Bonds are insufficient therefor; (6) all funds remaining in the Payment Account after completion of the Project and payment of the costs thereof; (7) all investment earnings on funds held in the Debt Service Account; and (8) any and all other moneys which are properly available and are appropriate by the governing body of the City to the Debt Service Account. The Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the principal and interest and any premiums for redemption of the Bonds and any other general obligation bonds of the City hereafter issued by the City and made payable from said account as provided by law. 16. Tax Increments: Use of Tax Increments. The County Auditor of Washington County has certified the original net tax capacity of property in the Tax Increment District. The County Auditor shall determine in each year if the then -current net tax capacity of property in the Tax Increment District exceeds the original net tax capacity, and shall calculate, in the manner provided in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, Subdivision 3, the captured net tax capacity (as defined therein) attributable to the Tax Increment District. The City hereby determines to retain 100% of the captured tax capacity for purposes of tax increment financing. The County Auditor shall, in each such year, compute the local tax rate to be extended against the captured net tax capacity in the manner provided in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.177, Subdivision 3, and the tax generated thereby shall constitute the Tax Increments for the year in which it is received. The City hereby appropriates the Tax Increments to the Debt Service Account; which appropriation shall continue until all of the Bonds and any additional bonds payable from the Debt Service Account, are paid or discharged. The City hereby expressly reserves the right to use the Tax Increments to finance costs set forth in the Plan not financed hereby or to finance costs of other projects to be undertaken from time to time within the Development District in accordance with the Program and the Plan, as they may from -time to time be amended. 17. Reservation of Rights. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, the City reserves the right to terminate, reduce, or apply to other lawful purposes the Tax Increments herein pledged to the payment of the Bonds and interest thereon to the extent and in the manner permitted by law. 18. Coverage. The Tax Increments herein pledged to the payment of the Bonds are such that if collected in full they, together with other revenues herein pledged for the payment of the Bonds, will produce at least five percent (5%) in excess of the amount needed to meet when due the principal and interest payments on the Bonds. 19. Future Tax Levies. On or before October 10 of each year, the Clerk - Treasurer shall certify to the County Auditor of Washington County the amount of Tax Increments and any other funds appropriated to and then held in the Debt Service Account and the estimated collections of Tax Increments to be received in the next succeeding year. In the 1221968.1 19 event that it is anticipated that the aggregate of said sums will not be sufficient to pay the principal and interest on the Bonds to become due in the first calendar year thereafter and the first six (6) months of the succeeding calendar year, the City Council shall pass a resolution requesting the County Auditor of Washington County to levy an ad valorem tax in an amount as is necessary, together with the aforementioned funds then held in the Debt Service Account and said estimated collections of Tax Increments, to pay the principal and interest on the Bonds to become due during said period. 20. Defeasance. When all Bonds have been discharged as provided in this paragraph, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this resolution to the registered holders of the Bonds shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The City may discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full; or if any Bond should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Bond Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such deposit. The City may also discharge its obligations with respect to any prepayable Bonds called for redemption on any date when they are prepayable according to their terms, by depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full, provided that notice of redemption thereof has been duly given. The City may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions of law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow, with a suitable banking institution qualified by law as an escrow agent for this purpose, cash or securities described in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 8, bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates and maturing on such dates as shall be required, without regard to sale and/or reinvestment, to pay all amounts to become due thereon to maturity or, if notice of redemption as herein required has been duly provided for, to such earlier redemption date. 21.
