numbers as, at $5,000 for each number, shall equal the principal
amount of such Bonds to be redeemed. The Bonds to be redeemed

provided, however, that only so much of the principal amount of
each such Bond of a denomination of more than $5,000 shall be
redeemed as shall equal $5,000 for each number assigned to it and

satisfactory to the City and Bond Registrar duly executed by the
Holder thereof or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in

other costs incurred and to be incurred of the kind authorized in

there shall be credited (a) all accrued interest received upon
delivery of the Bonds; (b) capitalized interest in the amount of
$33,420.87 (together with interest earnings thereon and subject
to such other adjustments as are appropriate to provide
sufficient funds to pay interest due on the principal and
interest' on the Bonds on or before Fe"bruaryl . 1, 199 9 ) ; (c)

other sums herein pledged to the payment of the Bonds are
insufficient therefor; (e) all funds remaining in the Capital
Account after completion of the Project and payment of the costs
thereof; (f) all investment earnings on funds held in the Debt
Service Account; and (g) 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
