● 4-year contingency provides for 10% unexpected costs over the life of the plan.

Notes

COVENANTS OF ESCROW AGENT

The Escrow Agent covenants and agrees with the District as follows:

Section 3.01. The Escrow Agent will hold the Government Securities and all interest

income or profit derived therefrom and all uninvested cash in an irrevocable segregated and

separate trust fund account for the sole and exclusive benefit of the holders of the Defeased

Bonds until final payment thereof.

Section 3.02. The beginning cash escrow deposit shall not be invested by the Escrow

Agent. Otherwise, the Escrow Agent will reinvest all available uninvested balances (rounded to

an even $100) in the Escrow Account on deposit from time to time, whenever said balances

exceed $1,000, and acknowledges that it has received from the District a schedule of amounts

available for reinvestment. Investments so made shall be in direct obligations of or obligations

guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America and shall be scheduled to

mature on or prior to the next succeeding interest payment date on the Defeased Bonds on which

such proceeds will be needed to pay the principal of or interest on the Defeased Bonds. Such

investments shall, to the extent possible, be in zero-yield obligations issued directly by the

Bureau of Public Debt of the United States Treasury (currently designated “U. S. Treasury

Securities—State and Local Government Series Certificates of Indebtedness, Notes or Bonds”)

(“SLGS”). Such investments shall be made only to the extent permitted by, and shall be made in

-E-

If the Department of the Treasury (or the Bureau of Public Debt) of the United States

suspends the sale of SLGS causing the Escrow Agent to be unable to purchase SLGS, then the

Escrow Agent will take the following actions. On the date it would have purchased SLGS had it

been able to do so, the Escrow Agent will purchase direct obligations of or obligations

guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States maturing no more than 90 days after

the date of purchase (the “Alternate Investment”). The purchase price of the Alternate

Investment shall be as close as possible to the principal amount of the SLGS that would have

been purchased on such date if they had been available for purchase. The Escrow Agent will

purchase each Alternate Investment at a price no higher than the fair market value of the

Alternate Investment and will maintain records demonstrating compliance with this requirement.

On the maturity of each Alternate Investment, the Escrow Agent shall pay the difference

between the total of the receipts on the Alternate Investment and the purchase price of the

Alternate Investment to the District with a notice to the District that such amount must be paid to

the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to Rev. Proc. 95-47. If the Alternate Investment matures

more than 14 days prior to the next succeeding interest payment date on the Defeased Bonds on

which such proceeds will be needed to pay principal of or interest on the Defeased Bonds, the

Escrow Agent shall treat such amounts as an uninvested balance available for reinvestment and

shall take all reasonable steps to invest such amounts in SLGS (or additional Alternate

Investments as provided in this Section).

The Escrow Agent shall hold balances not so invested in the Escrow Account on demand

and in trust for the purposes hereof and shall secure same in accordance with applicable Illinois

law for the securing of public funds.

principal and interest on the Defeased Bonds when due and upon redemption prior to maturity as

herein provided.

Escrow Agent from any further duty or obligation thereto under this Agreement.

Bonds, and the District either paid such fees, charges and expenses in advance as set forth in

Section 3.07 hereof or covenants to pay the same as they become due.

powers hereunder, nor shall be deemed to have failed to take any such action, unless and until it

shall have been indemnified by the District to its satisfaction against any and all costs and

expenses, outlays, counsel fees and other disbursements, including its own reasonable fees, and
