Agenda Item #5. Southlake Parks Development Corporation Opens Bids for Competitive
Sale of Bonds.
Jim Sabonis, First Southwest Company, stated in March, the Corporation and City met with
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. (Moody's) and Standard & Poor's Ratings Group, a division
of McGraw-Hill, Inc (S&P) to present the Corporation's and City's financial and economic
outlook for ratings on the Corporation's Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 1994. The
recommendation to make a personal presentation to the ratings services at this time was based
on several factors, including:
(1) The goal of designing an aggressive transaction structure that would permit the
maximum financing flexibility at the lowest cost,
(2) The need to fully familiarize and inform the rating agencies about the
Corporation, because this is the Corporation's initial debt issue,
(3) The area's strong economic indicators such as a new residential and commercial
growth, and increasing sales tax receipts, which are not reflected in the City's
current financial results, but will have a tremendous positive impact in the future,
(4) The conservative financial management and financial policies implemented by the
Corporation's and City's management,
(5) The Corporation's requirement to map out its long-term capital plan and financing
strategy for successful implementation.
The meetings held for both Moody's and S&P were successful, according to Mr. Sabonis. The
results were the awarding of ratings of "Baa" by Moody's and "BBB+" by S&P on the
Corporation's initial sales tax supported debt issue.

investments held for the account of the Reserve Fund, within
45 days of the date of passage of each authorizing document of the
Board pertaining to the issuance of Additional Obligations. All
interest and income derived from deposits and investments in the
Bond Fund immediately shall be credited to, and any losses debited

receipt and disbursement of the Pledged Revenues for such

an opinion of the accountant to the effect that such examination
was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
and contain a statement to the effect that in the course of making
the examination necessary for the report and opinion, the
accountant obtained no knowledge of any default of the Corporation
on the Bonds or in the fulfillment of any of the terms, covenants
or provisions of this Resolution, or under any other evidence of
indebtedness, or of any event which, with notice or lapse of time,
or both, would constitute a failure of the Corporation to comply
with the provisions of this Resolution or if, in the opinion of the
accountants, any such failure to comply with a covenant or
agreement hereof, a statement as to the nature and status thereof
shall be included.
Copies of each annual audit report shall be furnished upon
written request, to any Holders of any of said Bonds. The audits
herein required shall be made within 120 days following the close
of each Fiscal Year insofar as is possible.
The Holders of any Bonds or any duly authorized agent or
agents of such Holders shall have the right to inspect such
records, accounts and data of the Corporation during regular
business hours.

expressly provided herein.

the Pledged Revenues, as herein set forth, are established and
shall be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the
owners and holders of Parity Obligations without distinction as to
priority and rights under this Resolution.
(f) The Parity Obligations shall constitute special
obligations of the Corporation, payable solely from, and equally
and ratably secured by a parity pledge of and lien on, the Pledged
Revenues, and not from any other revenues, properties or income of
the Corporation. The Bonds may not be paid in whole or in part
from any property taxes raised or to be raised by the City and
shall not constitute debts or obligations of the State or of the
City, and the Holders, shall never have the right to demand payment
out of any funds raised or to be raised by any system of ad valorem
taxation.
SECTION 24. Satisfaction of Obligation of Corporation. If
the Corporation shall pay or cause to be paid, or there shall

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 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, 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

any time, amend this Resolution in any manner not detrimental to
the interests of the Holders, including the curing of any
ambiguity, inconsistency, or formal defect or omission herein. In
addition, the Corporation may, with the written consent from the
owners holding a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Parity Obligations then Outstanding affected thereby, amend, add

1.148-1(b) of the Regulations.
"Nonpurpose Investment" means any investment
property, as defined in section 148(b) of the Code, in
which Gross Proceeds of the Bonds are invested and which

final Income Tax Regulations issued pursuant to Sections
103 and 141 through 150 of the Code, and 103 of the

shall not use, permit the use of, or omit to use Gross Proceeds or
any other amounts (or any property the acquisition, construction or
improvement of which is to be financed directly or indirectly with
Gross Proceeds) in a manner which if made or omitted, respectively,
would cause the interest on any Bond to become includable in the
gross income, as defined in section 61 of the Code, of the owner
thereof for federal income tax purposes. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Corporation
receives a written opinion of counsel nationally recognized in the
field of municipal bond law to the effect that failure to comply

federal income tax of the interest on any Bond, the Corporation
shall comply with each of the specific covenants in this Section.
(c) No Private Use or Private Payments. The Bonds are being
issued to finance the costs of the Project for and on behalf of the
City, a political subdivision of the State of Texas and, in

by the City, and prohibits the City from using or
permitting the use of such Gross Proceeds or any property
acquired, constructed or improved with such Gross
Proceeds in any activity carried on by any person or
entity other than a state or local government, unless

(2) prohibits the City from directly or indirectly
imposing or accepting any charge or other payment for use
of Gross Proceeds of the Bonds or for any property the
acquisition, construction or improvement of which is to
be financed or refinanced directly or indirectly with
such Gross Proceeds, other than taxes of general
application within the City or interest earned on
investments acquired with such Gross Proceeds pending
application for their intended purposes.
(d) No Private Loan. Except to the extent permitted by

(2) capacity in or service from such property is committed to such
person or entity under a take -or -pay, output or similar contract or

permitted by section 148 of the Code and the Regulations and
rulings thereunder, the Corporation shall not at any time prior to
the final Stated Maturity of the Bonds directly or indirectly

replace money so invested), if as a result of such investment the
Yield from the Closing Date of all Investments acquired with Gross
Proceeds (or with money replaced thereby), whether then held or
previously disposed of, exceeds the Yield of the Bonds.
0164629 -30-
(f) Not Federally Guaranteed. Except to the extent permitted
(40W, by section 149(b) of the Code and the Regulations and rulings
thereunder, the Corporation shall not take or omit to take any
action which would cause the Bonds to be federally guaranteed
within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code and the
Regulations and rulings thereunder.
(g) Information Report. The Corporation shall timely file
the information required by section 149(e) of the Code with the
Secretary of the Treasury on Form 8038-G or such other form and in
such place as the Secretary may prescribe.

otherwise provided in section 148(f) of the Code and the
Regulations and rulings thereunder:

and investments thereof) on its books of account
separately and apart from all other funds (and receipts,
expenditures and investments thereof) and shall retain
all records of accounting for at least six years after
the day on which the last Outstanding Bond is discharged.

Gross Proceeds and the obligations acquired therewith.
(2) Not less frequently than each Computation Date,
the Corporation shall calculate the Rebate Amount in
accordance with rules set forth in section 148(f) of the
Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder. The
Corporation shall maintain such calculations with its
official transcript of proceedings relating to the
issuance of the Bonds until six years after the final
Computation Date.
(3) As additional consideration for the purchase of
the Bonds by the Purchasers and the loan of the money
represented thereby and in order to induce such purchase
by measures designed to insure the excludability of the
interest thereon from the gross income of the owners
thereof for federal income tax purposes, the Corporation
shall pay to the United States out of the Bond Fund or
its general fund, as permitted by applicable Texas
statute, regulation or opinion of the Attorney General of
the State of Texas, the amount that when added to the
future value of previous rebate payments made for the
Bonds equals (i) in the case of a Final Computation Date
as defined in Section 1.148-3(e)(2) of the Regulations,
0164629 - 31-
one hundred percent (100%) of the Rebate Amount on such
date; and (ii) in the case of any other Computation Date,
ninety percent (90%) of the Rebate Amount on such date.
In all cases, the rebate payments shall be made at the
times, in the installments, to the place and in the
manner as is or may be required by section 148(f) of the
Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder, and
shall be accompanied by Form 8038-T or such other forms
and information as is or may be required by Section
148(f) of the Code and the Regulations and rulings
thereunder.
(4) The Corporation shall exercise reasonable
diligence to assure that no errors are made in the
calculations and payments required by paragraphs (2) and
(3), and if an error is made, to discover and promptly
correct such error within a reasonable amount of time
thereafter (and in all events within one hundred eighty
(180) days after discovery of the error), including
payment to the United States of any additional Rebate
Amount owed to it, interest thereon, and any penalty
imposed under Section 1.148-3(h) of the Regulations.

permitted by section 148 of the Code and the Regulations and
rulings thereunder, the Corporation shall not, at any time prior to
the earlier of the Stated Maturity or final payment of the Bonds,
enter into any transaction that reduces the amount required to be
paid to the United States pursuant to Subsection (h) of this
Section because such transaction results in a smaller profit or a
larger loss than would have resulted if the transaction had been at
arm's length and had the Yield of the Bonds not been relevant to
either party.
(j) Elections. The Corporation hereby directs and authorizes
the President and Secretary of the Board of Directors, the
Executive Director or the Treasurer for the Corporation,
individually or jointly, to make elections permitted or required
pursuant to the provisions of the Code or the Regulations, as they
deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the Bonds, in the
Certificate as to Tax Exemption or similar or other appropriate
certificate, form or document.

provided) if in writing and sent by United States Mail, first class
postage prepaid, to the address of each Holder as it appears in the
Security Register.

the failure to mail such notice to any particular Holders, nor any
defect in any notice so mailed, shall affect the sufficiency of
such notice with respect to all other Bonds. Where this Resolution
provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Holder entitled to receive such notice,

is given, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice.

"Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as

not use, permit the use of, or omit to use Gross Proceeds or any
other amounts (or any property the acquisition, construction or

would cause the interest on any Bond to become includable in the
gross income, as defined in section 61 of the Code, of the owner
thereof for federal income tax purposes. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, unless and until the City receives a
written opinion of counsel nationally recognized in the field of
municipal bond law to the effect that failure to comply with such
covenant will not adversely affect the exemption from federal
income tax of the interest on any Bond, the City shall comply with
each of the specific covenants in this Section.
(c) No Private Use or Private Payments. Except as permitted
by section 141 of the Code and the Regulations and rulings
thereunder, the City shall at all times prior to the last Stated

which is to be financed or refinanced directly or
indirectly with Gross Proceeds of the Bonds, and not use
or permit the use of such Gross Proceeds (including all
contractual arrangements with terms different than those
applicable to the general public) or any property
acquired, constructed or improved with such Gross
Proceeds in any activity carried on by any person or
entity (including the United States or any agency,
department and instrumentality thereof) other than a
state or local government, unless such use is solely as
a member of the general public; and
(2) not directly or indirectly impose or accept any
charge or other payment by any person or entity who is
treated as using Gross Proceeds of the Bonds or any

which is to be financed or refinanced directly or
indirectly with such Gross Proceeds, other than taxes of
general application within the City or interest earned on
investments acquired with such Gross Proceeds pending
application for their intended purposes.
(d) No Private Loan. Except to the extent permitted by
section 141 of the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder,
the City shall not use Gross Proceeds of the Bonds to make or
finance loans to any person or entity other than a state or local

(W 0164758 - 3 -
Proceeds is sold or leased to such person or entity in a
transaction which creates a debt for federal income tax purposes;
(2) capacity in or service from such property is committed to such
person or entity under a take -or -pay, output or similar contract or
arrangement; or (3) indirect benefits, or burdens and benefits of
ownership, of such Gross Proceeds or any property acquired,

transferred in a transaction which is the economic equivalent of a
loan.

permitted by section 148 of the Code and the Regulations and
rulings thereunder, the City shall not at any time prior to the
final Stated Maturity of the Bonds directly or indirectly invest
Gross Proceeds in any Investment (or use Gross Proceeds to replace
money so invested), if as a result of such investment the Yield
from the Closing Date of all Investments acquired with Gross
Proceeds (or with money replaced thereby), whether then held or
previously disposed of, exceeds the Yield of the Bonds.
(f) Not Federally Guaranteed. Except to the extent permitted
by section 149(b) of the Code and the Regulations and rulings
thereunder, the City shall not take or omit to take any action
which would cause the Bonds to be federally guaranteed within the
meaning of section 149(b) of the Code and the Regulations and
rulings thereunder.
(g) Payment of Rebatable Arbitrage. Except to the extent
otherwise provided in section 148(f) of the Code and the
Regulations and rulings thereunder:
(1) The City shall account for all Gross Proceeds
(including all receipts, expenditures and investments
thereof) on its books of account separately and apart
from all other funds (and receipts, expenditures and
investments thereof) and shall retain all records of
accounting for at least six years after the day on which
the last Outstanding Bond is discharged. However, to the
extent permitted by law, the City may commingle Gross
Proceeds of the Bonds with other money of the City,
provided that the City separately accounts for each
receipt and expenditure of Gross Proceeds and the
obligations acquired therewith.
(2) Not less frequently than each Computation Date,
the City shall calculate the Rebate Amount in accordance
with rules set forth in section 148(f) of the Code and
the Regulations and rulings thereunder. The City shall

(3) As additional consideration for the purchase of
the Bonds by the Purchasers and the use of the money
represented thereby and in order to induce such purchase
by measures designed to insure the excludability of the
interest thereon from the gross income of the owners
thereof for federal income tax purposes, the City shall
remit to the Corporation for payment to the United States
the amount described in paragraph (g)(2) above and the
amount described in paragraph (g)(4) below, at the times,
in the manner and accompanied by such forms or other
information as is or may be required by Section 148 (f ) of
the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder.
(4) The City shall exercise reasonable diligence to
assure that no errors are made in the calculations and
payments required by paragraph (g)(2), and if an error is
made, to discover and promptly correct such error within
a reasonable amount of time thereafter (and in all events
within one hundred eighty (180) days after discovery of
the error), including the amount remitted to the
Corporation for payment to the United States of any
additional Rebate Amount owed to it, interest thereon,
and any penalty imposed under Section 1.148-3(h) of the
Regulations.
4. Receipt and Transfer of Proceeds of Sales Tax. The City
agrees, in cooperation with the Corporation, to take such actions
as are required to cause the "Gross Sales Tax Revenues" (as such
term is defined in the resolution authorizing the issuance of the
Bonds) received from the Comptroller of Public Accounts of the
State of Texas for and on behalf of the Corporation to be
transferred and deposited immediately upon receipt by the City to
the credit of the banking or monetary fund maintained at the
depository designated by the Corporation and known on the books and
records of the Corporation as the "Pledged Revenue Fund".

pertaining to the subject matter hereof and fully supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings between the parties pertaining
