name any Bond is at any time registered in the bond register as the absolute owner of the Bond,
whether the Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account

signature or facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if he
had remained in office until delivery. Notwithstanding such execution, no Bond shall be valid or
obligatory for any purpose or entitled to any security or benefit under this Resolution unless and
until a certificate of authentication on the Bond has been duly executed by the manual signature
of an authorized representative of the Registrar. Certificates of authentication on different Bonds
need not be signed by the same-representative. The executed certificate of authentication on each
Bond shall be conclusive evidence that it has been authenticated and delivered under this
Resolution. When the Bonds have been prepared, executed and authenticated, the Executive

3.02. Bond Fund. There is hereby established on the official books and records of the
Issuer a Series 2006 Bond Fund (the "Bond Fund"). So long as any of the Bonds are outstanding
and any principal of or interest thereon unpaid, the Issuer shall maintain the Bond Fund, and the
principal of and interest on the Bonds shall be payable from the Bond Fund. The Issuer
irrevocably appropriates to the Bond Fund (a) proceeds of the Issuer's special benefits tax levied
pursuant to Section 469.033, Subdivision 6 of the HRA Act (the "Special Benefits Tax") and
collected in each year during the term of the Bonds, in an amount that, together with any other
funds on deposit in the Bond Fund, is equal to the principal of and interest on the Bonds (and any
• Parity Debt as defined in Section 4.02 that is secured by the Bond Fund) due during the
immediately following Bond Year, and (b) proceeds of the Special Benefits Tax collected in
2006 in an amount equal to the interest due on the Bonds on February 1, 2007. The term "Bond
Year" means a year commencing on August 1 and ending on July 31 of the following calendar
year. All monies appropriated to the Bond Fund under this Section, together with any other
amounts deposited therein by the Issuer, are pledged solely to pay principal of and interest on the
Bonds.
The Issuer shall not cause to be applied to the payment of the Bonds any amounts which
would constitute "private payments" or "private security" for the Bonds, which might cause the
Bonds to be considered "private activity bonds" or "private loan bonds" pursuant to Section 141
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
Section 4. Covenants.
