All cancelled Bonds held by the Paying Agent/ Registrar shall be returned to the City. SECTION 12: Mutilated - Destroyed - Lost and Stolen Bonds. If (1) any mutilated Bondis surrendered to the Paying Agent /Registrar, or the City and the Paying Agent /Registrar receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss, or theft of any Bond, and (2) there is delivered to the City and the Paying Agent /Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the City or the Paying Agent /Registrar that such Bond has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the City shall execute and, upon its request, the Paying Agent /Registrar shall register and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bond, a new Bond of the same Stated Maturity and of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bond has become or is about to become due and pay- able, the City in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Bond, pay such Bond. -17- Upon the issuance of any new Bond under this Section, the City may require payment by the Bondholder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (includ- ing the fees and expenses of the Paying Agent /Registrar) connected therewith. Every new Bond issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bond shall constitute a replacement of the prior obligation of the City, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bond shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Ordinance equally and ratably with all other Outstanding Bonds. The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement and payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bonds. SECTION 13: No- Arbitrage Certification. That the City hereby certifies and covenants that the proceeds of the Bonds are needed at this time for the purposes identified in Section 1 hereof; based current facts, estimates and circumstances, it is reasonably expected that all of the spendable proceeds of the Bonds will be expended within three years from the date of the receipt thereof by the City; it is not reasonably expected the proceeds of the Bonds or moneys deposited in the Interest and Sinking Fund created for the payment of the Bonds will be used or invested in a manner that would cause the Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 103(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, or any regulations or published rulings pertaining thereto; and save and except for the Interest and Sinking Fund, no other funds or accounts have been established or pledged for the payment of the Bonds. SECTION 14: Satisfaction of Obligation of City. If the City shall pay or cause to be paid, or there shall otherwise be paid to the Bondholders, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, at the times and in the manner stipulated in this Ordinance, then the pledge of any taxes under this Ordinance and all other obligations of the City to the Bondholders shall thereupon cease, terminate, and become void and be discharged and satisfied. MM Bonds or any principal amount(s) thereof shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning and with the effect expressed above in this Section when (i) money suf- ficient to pay in full such Bonds or the principal amount(s) thereof at maturity or to the redemption date therefor, together with all interest due thereon, shall have been irrevocably deposited with and held in trust by the Paying Agent /Registrar, or an authorized escrow agent, or (ii) Government Securities shall have been irrevocably deposited in trust with the Paying Agent/ Registrar, or an authorized escrow agent, which Government Securities have been certi- fied by an independent accounting firm to mature as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as will insure the availability, without reinvestment, of suf- ficient money, together with any moneys deposited therewith, if any, to pay when due the principal of and interest on such Bonds, or the principal amount(s) thereof, on and prior to the Stated Maturity thereof or (if notice of redemption has been duly given or waived or if irrevocable arrangements therefor acceptable to the Paying Agent /Registrar have been made) the redemption date thereof. The City covenants that no deposit of moneys or Government Securities will be made under this Section and no use made of any such deposit which would cause the Bonds to be treated as "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 103(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, or regulations adopted pursuant thereto. Any moneys so deposited with the Paying Agent/ Registrar, or an authorized escrow agent, and all income from Government Securities held in trust by the Paying Agent /Registrar, or an authorized escrow agent, pursuant to this Section which is not required for the payment of the Bonds, or any principal amount(s) thereof, or interest thereon with respect to which such moneys have been so deposited shall be remitted to the City or deposited as directed by the City. Furthermore, any money held by the Paying Agent /Registrar for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and remaining unclaimed for a period of four (4) years after the Stated Maturity, or applicable redemption date, of the Bonds such moneys were deposited and are held in trust to pay shall, upon the request of the City, be remitted to the City against a written receipt therefor.
