and shall not bear interest after the date fixed for its
prepayment or redemption, and shall not be regarded as being

the initial registered owner hereof and shall be transferred
only in the Registration Books of the Issuer kept by the Paying
Agent /Registrar acting in the capacity of registrar for the

Resolution. Among other requirements for such transfer, this
Bond must be presented and surrendered to the Paying
Agent /Registrar for cancellation, together with proper instru-
ments of assignment, in form and with guarantee of signatures

assignment by the initial registered owner of this Bond, or any
portion or portions hereof in any integral multiple of $5,000,
to the assignee or assignees in whose name or names this Bond
or any such portion or portions hereof is or are to be trans-
ferred and registered. Any instrument or instruments of
assignment satisfactory to the Paying Agent /Registrar may be

shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
AS PROVIDED above and in the Bond Resolution, this Bond,
to the extent of the unpaid or unredeemed principal balance
hereof, may be converted into and exchanged for a like aggre-
gate principal amount of fully registered bonds, without
interest coupons, payable to the assignee or assignees duly
designated in writing by the initial registered owner hereof,
or to the initial registered owner as to any portion of this
Bond which is not being assigned and transferred by the initial
registered owner, in any denomination or denominations in any
integral multiple of $5,000 (subject to the requirement here-
inafter stated that each substitute bond issued in exchange for
any portion of this Bond shall have a single stated principal
maturity date), upon surrender of this Bond to the Paying
Agent /Registrar for cancellation, all in accordance with the
form and procedures set forth in the Bond Resolution. If this
Bond or any portion hereof is assigned and transferred or
converted each bond issued in exchange for any portion hereof
shall have a single stated principal maturity date correspond-
ing to the due date of the installment of principal of this
Bond or portion hereof for which the substitute bond is being
exchanged, and shall bear interest at the rate applicable to
and borne by such installment of principal or portion thereof.
Such bonds, respectively, shall be subject to redemption prior
to maturity on the same dates and for the same prices as the.
6
corresponding installment of principal of this Bond or portion
hereof for which they are being exchanged. No such bond shall
be payable in installments, but shall have only one stated
principal maturity date. AS PROVIDED IN THE BOND RESOLUTION,
THIS BOND IN ITS PRESENT FORM MAY BE ASSIGNED AND TRANSFERRED
OR CONVERTED ONCE ONLY, and to one or more assignees, but the
bonds issued and delivered in exchange for this Bond or any
portion hereof may be assigned and transferred, and converted,

shall pay the Paying Agent /Registrar's standard or customary
fees and charges for transferring, converting, and exchanging
this Bond or any portion thereof, but the one requesting such
transfer, conversion, and exchange shall pay any taxes or
governmental charges required to be paid with respect thereto.
The Paying Agent /Registrar shall not be required to make any
such assignment, conversion, or exchange (i) during the period
commencing with the close of business on any Record Date and
ending with the opening of business on the next following
principal or interest payment date, or, (ii) with respect to
any Bond or portion thereof called for prepayment or redemption
prior to maturity, within 45 days prior to its prepayment or
redemption date.

changed by the Issuer, resigns, or otherwise ceases to act as
such, the Issuer has covenanted in the Bond Resolution that it

stitute therefor, and promptly will cause written notice

provided; but it shall be the duty of each registered owner to
notify the Paying Agent /Registrar in writing of the address to
which payments shall be mailed, and such interest payments
shall not be mailed unless such notice has been given. The
Issuer shall have the right to inspect the Registration Books
8
during regular business hours of the Paying Agent /Registrar,
but otherwise the Paying Agent /Registrar shall keep the Regis-
tration Books confidential and, unless otherwise required by
law, shall not permit their inspection by any other entity.

assignment, in form and with guarantee of signatures satis-
factory to the Paying Agent /Registrar, evidencing (1) the
assignment of the Bond, or any portion thereof in any integral
multiple of $5,000, to the assignee or assignees thereof, and
(ii) the right of such assignee or assignees to have the Bond
or any such portion thereof registered in the name of such
assignee or assignees. Upon the assignment and transfer of any
Bond or any portion thereof, a new substitute Bond or Bonds
shall be issued in conversion and exchange therefor in the
manner herein provided. The Initial Bond, to the extent of the
unpaid or unredeemed principal balance thereof, may be assigned
and transferred by the initial registered owner thereof once
only, and to one or more assignees designated in writing by the
initial registered owner thereof. All Bonds issued and de-
livered in conversion of and exchange for the Initial Bond
shall be in any denomination or denominations of any integral
multiple of $5,000 (subject to the requirement hereinafter
stated that each substitute Bond shall have a single stated
principal maturity date), shall be in the form prescribed in
the FORM OF SUBSTITUTE BOND set forth in this Resolution, and
shall have the characteristics, and may be assigned, trans-
ferred, and converted as hereinafter provided. If the Initial
Bond or any portion thereof is assigned and transferred or
converted the Initial Bond must be surrendered to the Paying
Agent /Registrar for cancellation, and each Bond issued in
exchange for any portion of the Initial Bond shall have a
single stated principal maturity date, and shall not be payable
in installments; and each such Bond shall have a principal
maturity date corresponding to the due date of the installment
of principal or portion thereof for which the substitute Bond
is being exchanged; and each such Bond shall bear interest at
the single rate applicable to and borne by such installment of
principal or portion thereof for which it is being exchanged.
If only a portion of the Initial Bond is assigned and
transferred, there shall be delivered to and registered in the
name of the initial registered owner substitute Bonds in
exchange for the unassigned balance of the Initial Bond in the
same manner as if the initial registered owner were the as-
signee thereof. If any Bond or portion thereof other than the
Initial Bond is assigned and transferred or converted each Bond
issued in exchange therefor shall have the same principal
maturity date and bear interest at the same rate as the Bond
for which it is exchanged. A form of assignment shall be
printed or endorsed on each Bond, excepting the Initial Bond,
which shall be executed by the registered owner or its duly
authorized attorney or representative to evidence an assignment
thereof. Upon surrender of any Bonds or any portion or por-
tions thereof for transfer of registration, an authorized
representative of the Paying Agent /Registrar shall make such
transfer in the Registration Books, and shall deliver a new
fully registered substitute Bond or Bonds, having the charac-
teristics herein described, payable to such assignee or assign-
ees (which then will be the registered owner or owners of such
new Bond or Bonds), or to the previous registered owner in case
only a portion of a Bond is being assigned and transferred, all
in conversion of and exchange for said assigned Bond or Bonds
or any portion or portions thereof, in the same form and
manner, and with the same effect, as provided in Section 6(d),
below, for the conversion and exchange of Bonds by any regis-
tered owner of a Bond. The Issuer shall pay the Paying
9
Agent /Registrar's standard or customary fees and charges for
making such transfer and delivery of a substitute Bond or
Bonds, but the one requesting such transfer shall pay any taxes
or other governmental charges required to be paid with respect
thereto. The Paying Agent /Registrar shall not be required to
make transfers of registration of'any Bond or any portion
thereof (i) during the period commencing with the close of
business on any Record Date and ending with the opening of
business on the next following principal or interest payment
date, or, (ii) with respect to any Bond or any portion thereof
called for redemption prior to maturity, within 45 days prior
to its redemption date.
(b) Ownership of Bonds. The entity in whose name any
Bond shall be registered in the Registration Books at any time
shall be deemed and treated as the absolute owner thereof for
all purposes of this Resolution, whether or not such Bond shall
be overdue, and the Issuer and the Paying Agent /Registrar shall
not be affected by any notice to the contrary; and payment of,
or on account of, the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on any such Bond shall be made only to such registered
owner. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to
satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond to the
extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(c) Payment of Bonds and Interest. The Issuer hereby
further appoints the Paying Agent /Registrar to act as the
paying agent for paying the principal of and interest on the
Bonds, and to act as its agent to convert and exchange or
replace Bonds, all as provided in this Resolution. The Paying
Agent /Registrar shall keep proper records of all payments made
by the Issuer and the Paying Agent /Registrar with respect to
the Bonds, and of all conversions and exchanges of Bonds, and
all replacements of Bonds, as provided in this Resolution.
(d) Conversion and Exchange or Replacement; Authenti-
cation. Each Bond issued and delivered pursuant to this
Resolution, to the extent of the unpaid or unredeemed principal
balance or principal amount thereof, may, upon surrender of
such Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the Paying
Agent /Registrar, together with a written request therefor duly
executed by the registered owner or the assignee or assignees
thereof, or its or their duly authorized attorneys or
representatives, with guarantee of signatures satisfactory to
the Paying Agent /Registrar, may, at the option of the regis-
tered owner or such assignee or assignees, as appropriate, be
converted into and exchanged for fully registered bonds,
without interest coupons, in the form prescribed in the FORM OF
SUBSTITUTE BOND set forth in this Resolution, in the denomina-
tion of $5,000, or any integral multiple of $5,000 (subject to
the requirement hereinafter stated that each substitute Bond
shall have a single stated maturity date), as requested in
writing by such registered owner or such assignee or assignees,
in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid or unre-
deemed principal :balance or principal amount of any Bond or
Bonds so surrendered, and payable to the appropriate registered
owner, assignee, or assignees, as the case may be. If the
Initial Bond is assigned and transferred or converted each
substitute Bond issued in exchange for any portion of the
Initial Bond shall have a single stated principal maturity
date, and shall not be payable in installments; and each such
Bond shall have a principal maturity date corresponding to the
due date of the installment of principal or portion thereof for
which the substitute Bond is being exchanged; and each such
Bond shall bear interest at the single rate applicable to and
borne by such installment of principal or portion thereof for
which it is being exchanged. If a portion of any Bond (other
than the Initial Bond) shall be redeemed prior to its scheduled
10
maturity as provided herein, a substitute Bond or Bonds having
the same maturity date, bearing interest at the same rate, in
the denomination or denominations of any integral multiple of
$5,000 at the request of the registered owner, and in aggregate
principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof, will
be issued to the registered owner 'upon surrender thereof for
cancellation. If any Bond or portion thereof (other than the
Initial Bond) is assigned and transferred or converted, each
Bond issued in exchange therefor shall have the same principal
maturity date and bear interest at the same rate as the Bond
for which it is being exchanged. Each substitute Bond shall
bear a letter and /or number to distinguish it from each other
Bond. The Paying Agent /Registrar shall convert and exchange or
replace Bonds as provided herein, and each fully registered
bond delivered in conversion of and exchange for or replacement
of any Bond or portion thereof as permitted or required by any
provision of this Resolution shall constitute one of the Bonds
for all purposes of this Resolution, and may again be converted
and exchanged or replaced. It is specifically provided that
any Bond authenticated in conversion of and exchange for or
replacement of another Bond on or prior to the first scheduled
Record Date for the Initial Bond shall bear interest from the
date of the Initial Bond, but each substitute Bond so authenti-
cated after such first scheduled Record Date shall bear inter-
est from the interest payment date next preceding the date on
which such substitute Bond was so authenticated, unless such
Bond is authenticated after any Record Date but on or before
the next following interest payment date, in which case it
shall bear interest from such next following interest payment
date; provided, however, that if at the time of delivery of any
substitute Bond the interest on the Bond for which it is being
exchanged is due but has not been paid, then such Bond shall
bear interest from the date to which such interest has been
paid in full. THE INITIAL BOND issued and delivered pursuant
to this Resolution is not required to be, and shall not be,
authenticated by the Paying Agent /Registrar, but on each
substitute Bond issued in conversion of and exchange for or
replacement of any Bond or Bonds issued under this Resolution
there shall be printed a certificate, in the form substantially
as follows:

tely after the receipt of such proceeds, such sum as will cause

market value to the average annual principal and interest
requirements of all Parity Bonds to be outstanding after the
delivery of the Bonds. So long as the Reserve Fund contains an
amount of money and investments equal to the average annual
principal and interest requirements of all outstanding Parity
Bonds and Additional Bonds calculated as of the date of the
Bonds (the "Reserve Required Amount "), no further deposits
shall be made to the Reserve Fund. If the Reserve Fund should

of the Parity Bonds from time to time. If any of the Cities
fails to make payments as required by the Contracts and if it
shall appear that enforcement of the Contracts has become
ineffective or will be ineffective to the extent that a default
in payment of principal of or interest on the Parity Bonds
occurs or is threatened, the Authority will take all necessary
action to preserve and protect the rights of the holders or
owners of the Parity Bonds and to assure payment of the princi-
pal thereof and the interest thereon.

principal of and interest on the Parity Bonds, at any time
derived from the operation thereof, or any of its Funds, except
as authorized by Sections 14.01 and 14.02 of this Resolution in
connection with Additional Bonds and other bonds; that the
security of the Parity Bonds will not be impaired in any way as
a result of any action or any non - action on the part of the
Authority, its Board of Directors, or officers, or any thereof,
and that the Authority has, and will, subject to the provisions
hereof, continuously preserve good and indefeasible title to
the System and each and every part thereof.
Section 12.08. KEEP FRANCHISES AND PERMITS IN EFFECT.

might by law become a lien upon such System or any part thereof
or the revenue therefrom; provided, however, that nothing in
this Section contained shall require the Authority to pay or
cause to be discharged, or make provision for, any such lien or
charge, so long as the validity thereof shall be contested in

serves no useful purposes in connection with the maintenance
and operation of the System. The proceeds of any sale of real
or personal property acquired from the proceeds of the Parity
Bonds shall be deposited in the Revenue Fund.

purpose, if such lease or the use of such lands will not be
detrimental to the operation and maintenance of the System. It

mineral purposes. No lease shall be made which will result in
any damage to or substantial diminution of the value of other
property of the Authority. The rental to be charged under all
such leases shall be not less than the fair and reasonable
rental in relation to the character and value of the property
leased. All rentals, revenues, receipts, and royalties derived
by the Authority from any and all leases so made, shall be
deposited in the Revenue Fund.

property of any nature shall be sold or leased by Authority

sale or leasing, Authority shall procure the advice and
recommendation in writing of a registered professional engineer

ing firm or corporation having a favorable repute for skill and
experience in such work.
(b) The Authority covenants that it will at all appropri-
ate times cause the Independent Consulting Engineer to submit
and give all necessary or desirable advice and recommendations
concerning renewals, replacements, extensions, betterments, and
improvements for the System, to the end that the System shall
be operated and maintained in the most efficient and satisfac-
tory manner. Further, Authority shall cause the Independent
26
Consulting Engineer to make in writing a full survey, review,
and report on the physical condition of the System once every
three years.
(c) Authority further covenants that it will cause the
Independent Consulting Engineer to'make an annual report to it

advice as to (1) the proper maintenance, repair, and operation
of the System, including their findings as to whether or not
the properties of the System have been maintained in good
repair and sound operating condition; (2) the extensions,
improvements, renewals, and replacements which should be made

accidents, or casualties against which and to the extent
insurance is usually carried by corporations operating like
properties, and will also at all times maintain workmen's
compensation insurance and insurance against public liability
and property damages, in a reasonable amount with responsible
insurance companies; provided, however, that at any time while
any contractor engaged in construction work shall be fully
responsible therefor, the Authority shall not be required to
carry such insurance. All such policies shall be open to the
inspection of the bondholders and their representatives at all
reasonable times.
Section 13.02. INSURANCE PROCEEDS. In the event of any
loss of or damage to the System the Authority covenants that it
will reconstruct or repair the destroyed or damaged portion of

replacement of damaged, mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed
Bonds shall be made by the registered owner thereof to the

tinuing in the payment of the principal of, redemption premium,

case of a damaged or mutilated Bond) instead of issuing a
replacement Bond, provided security or indemnity is furnished
as above provided in this Section.
(d) Charge for Issuing Replacement Bonds. Prior to the
issuance of any replacement bond, the Paying Agent /Registrar
shall charge the registered owner of such Bond with all legal,
printing, and other expenses in connection therewith. Every
replacement bond issued pursuant to the provisions of this
Section by virtue of the fact that any Bond is lost, stolen, or
destroyed shall constitute a contractual obligation of the

be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all the Benefits of this Resolution equally and
proportionately with any and all other Bonds duly issued under
this Resolution.

dance with Section 6 of Vernon's Ann. Tex. Civ. St. Art.
