(b) As provided in the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note, in addition to the above
payments of principal and interest on the Series 2009)-2 Loan, any payment required to be made

computed pursuant to this Section 3.3, the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note shall thereafter bear
interest at the Maximum Rate until the earlier of (1) the final maturity of the 2009)-2
Governmental Unit Note or (2) such time as the total amount of interest paid on the 2009)-2

any Maximum Rate. All payments made hereunder shall be applied first to payment of accrued
interest on the unpaid balance hereof at the aforesaid rate, then to the reduction of principal and

(c) The Governmental Unit shall also pay all Reserve Payments. The Financial
Advisor, on behalf of the Sponsor, shall determine not less often than each January 1 and July 1

Governmental Unit, of the amount thereof. Reserve Payments under clauses (a) and (c) of the

effect, the amount of each interest payment which the Governmental Unit is required to make
during such period and the computations used to determine such payment. However, if at any
time the Trustee determines that such payment amount, together with other funds available
therefor, does not provide sufficient funds to pay the Governmental Unit's Reserve Payment, if
any, the Trustee shall so notify the Administrator and the Financial Advisor. The Financial
Advisor, on behalf of the Sponsor shall increase the payment amount on the Series 2009)-2 Loan
then in effect by an amount sufficient to cure any deficiency in the payment of the Governmental
Unit's Reserve Payment by giving notice thereof to the Administrator. The Administrator shall
recompute the amount of the Governmental Unit's semiannual payments and shall give the
Governmental Unit notice of a revised payment and the computations used to determine such
payment at least ten (10) days prior to the date such revised payment is to become effective,
stating the period (not exceeding six (6) months) for which such revised additional payments are
to be in effect, and the amount of each payment which the Governmental Unit is required to
make during such period. The Administrator shall send to the Trustee and the Credit Facility
Issuer, if any, duplicate copies of each statement to the Governmental Unit specifying the total
payment due from the Governmental Unit, which shall specify the respective amounts of
principal and interest due, and the Reserve Payment amount billed to the Governmental Unit on a
semi-annual basis pursuant to this Section.

Governmental Unit Note, all computations of the Reserve Payments and any other amounts due
under this Agreement, if any, or the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note shall be made assuming
that full principal and interest and other required payments will be received in respect of each
Loan made from the Program Bonds to any other Governmental Unit, whether or not such Loan
is in default; it being the intention of the Sponsor that except as provided in the proviso at the
end of Section 3.3(e) hereof, the Governmental Unit shall not bear any financial obligation
arising because of a default in any Loan to any other party. Notwithstanding any provision of the
Indenture or this Agreement to the contrary, the Governmental Unit shall not be obligated to pay
any portion of the costs of any Liquidity Facility or Remarketing Agent for the Program Bonds;
provided, however, that in computing any amount to be included in the payments required of
the Governmental Unit for the interest on the Reserve Bonds, earnings on moneys in the Reserve
Account shall first be applied to pay such costs of any applicable Liquidity Facility and the
Remarketing Agent in respect of the Reserve Bonds, and only the remaining interest earnings on
such monies shall be credited toward the interest on the Reserve Bonds in accordance with the
Indenture in computing the Reserve Payment of the Governmental Unit.
(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Reserve Payment shall not
include any amounts attributable to the default of any other Governmental Unit, and the 2009)-2
Governmental Unit Note and the principal amount thereof and interest thereon shall not be
increased or accelerated for any reason related to an acceleration or redemption of the Program
Bonds other than as a result of an Event of Default under the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note

Payment may be affected by reductions in the investment income on the Debt Service Reserve
Fund and Loan Reserve Fund as a consequence of market conditions or the acceleration or
redemption of the Program Bonds.

respect to which the Program incurs costs and expenses. Alike amount of moneys on deposit in
the Debt Service Reserve Fund and the Loan Reserve Fund under the Indenture for the Program
Bonds are to be invested in compliance with Section 6.02 of the Indenture. The Governmental
Unit hereby acknowledges that pursuant to the Indenture, the amount of funds which may be
used to pay Program Bonds or which may result in a Liquidation Shortfall, as defined in
Subsection (b) of this Section 3.5, is not limited to the amount of the Reserve Bonds, and that the
full amount of the Debt Service Reserve Fund and the Loan Reserve Fund for all Program Bonds

may be used as provided in the Indenture, including, among other things for payment of Program
Bonds in the event of a default by the Governmental Unit.
(b) In the event that a default of the Governmental Unit results in the liquidation of
investments in the Debt Service Reserve Fund or Loan Reserve Fund, the Governmental Unit
will pay the "Liquidation Shortfall." "Liquidation Shortfall" shall mean the loss, if any, incurred
by the Sponsor as a result of such a liquidation versus the amount which would have been
realized if such investments would have been sold at a price (exclusive of investment earnings
thereon) equal their purchase price.
In the event that for any other reason permitted under the Indenture (other than a default
by another Governmental Unit) a draw upon the Loan Reserve Fund or the Debt Service Reserve
Fund results in a liquidation of the investments therein, the Governmental Unit agrees to pay the
Governmental Unit's Pro-Rata Shaze of the Liquidation Shortfall as a component of the Reserve
Payment following such liquidation. No charges for any Liquidity Facility or Remarketing
Agent in respect of the Reserve Bonds shall be borne by the Governmental Unit; however upon
any determination by the Administrator that the investment earnings on the investment of funds
allocable to the proceeds of the Reserve Bonds is projected to be insufficient to pay the interest
on the Reserve Bonds (after first applying such earnings to pay the charges for any Liquidity
Facility and the Remarketing Agent in respect of the Reserve Bonds), the Governmental Unit
shall pay, as a component of the Reserve Payment such amounts as determined by the
Administrator under Subsections 3.3(c) and (d) hereof. The Governmental Unit's obligations
under this paragraph shall be subject to the limitations in Section 3.3(e).
SECTION 3.6 SPECIAL OBLIGATION OF GOVERNMENTAL UNIT.
(a) Each Credit Issuer may share with any other Credit Issuer any information given
to any of them by the Governmental Unit, including without limitation financial statements, and
may also shaze such information with any participant of such Credit Issuer, and any financial
institution which is being solicited to become a participant of any Credit Issuer. To the extent
necessary to permit the foregoing, the Governmental Unit hereby waives any privilege or right to
confidentiality, whether arising under statute or otherwise, it may have which would otherwise
prohibit the foregoing shazing of information.
(b) The payment of principal and interest on the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note
shall be secured by a lien upon and pledge of the Pledged Revenues on pazity and equal status
with the Pazity Bonds. The Governmental Unit hereby represents and warrants that such pledge
of the Pledged Revenues to secure the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note is valid, binding and
enforceable and that the Pledged Revenues are not, as of the date hereof, otherwise subject to any
pledge, encumbrances or lien, other than for the payment of the Refunded Bonds, which are
being refunded and defeased, the Parity Bonds and the obligations to the issuer of a certain
Reserve Account Insurance Policy. The Governmental Unit covenants that it will not cause or
permit to exist any pledge of or lien upon the Pledged Revenues other than the pledges securing

in accordance with the Bond Resolution.
Reserve Payments and any other amounts (other than principal and interest) due or
payable on the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note or this Agreement (such Reserve Payments and

authorized in accordance with the Bond Resolution, and the principal and interest on the 2009)-2
Governmental Unit Note.
(c) Prior to each of its Fiscal Years, the Governmental Unit shall establish a budget
for such fiscal year which allocates a sufficient sum of Pledged Revenues to pay all amounts
reasonably anticipated by the Governmental Unit to be payable hereunder and all amounts
reasonably anticipated to be payable with respect to the Parity Bonds and any Additional
Indebtedness. In the event that the budgeted amounts prove insufficient to make said payments,
the Governmental Unit shall as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the expiration of
ninety (90) days from such event) amend its budget so as to assure that sufficient Pledged
Revenues are available to at all times make said payments.
(d) The Series 2009)-2 Loan and the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note, and all
payments due with respect thereto or under this Loan Agreement, shall be a special limited
obligation of the Governmental Unit, payable solely from the Pledged Revenues as herein
provided. The Series 2009)-2 Loan and the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note do not constitute a
general indebtedness of the Governmental Unit, or a pledge of the faith, credit or taxing power
thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory provision or limitation. Neither the
State of Florida nor any political subdivision thereof nor the Governmental Unit shall be
obligated (1) to exercise its ad valorem taxing power or any other taxing power in any form on
any real or personal property in the territory of the Governmental Unit to pay the principal of the
Series 2009)-2 Loan and the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note, the interest thereon or other
payments or costs incident thereto or under this Loan Agreement, or (2) to pay the same from
any other funds of the Governmental Unit except from the Pledged Revenues, all in the manner
provided herein. The acceptance of the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note by the holder from
time to time thereof shall be deemed an agreement between the Governmental Unit and such
holder that the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note and the indebtedness evidenced thereby shall
not constitute a lien upon any property of the Governmental Unit, but shall constitute a lien only
on the Pledged Revenues, in the manner herein provided. The Series 2009)-2 Loan and the
2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note shall not be secured by, nor payable from moneys, Reserve
Account Insurance Policies or Reserve Account Letters of Credit on deposit in, the Reserve

shall preclude the Governmental Unit from using any legally available funds, in addition to the
Pledged Revenues herein provided, which may come into its possession, including but not

Bonds, the issuance by any Credit Facility Issuer of a Credit Facility, if any, the issuance of
Local Credit Enhancement, if any, and the execution and delivery by any Liquidity Facility
Issuer of a Liquidity Facility, if any, and, accordingly, all covenants, agreements and
representations on the part of the Governmental Unit and the Sponsor, as set forth in this
Agreement, are hereby declared to be for the benefit of the holders from time to time of the
Program Bonds, and for the benefit of each such Credit Issuer. The Governmental Unit agrees to
cooperate to do all things reasonably appropriate to comply with and to enable the Sponsor to
comply with all requirements and to enable the Sponsor to fulfill all covenants of the Indenture.
SECTION 3.8 PRESERVATION OF TAX-STATUS; PROGRAM BONDS
NOT TO BECOME ARBITRAGE BONDS.
The Governmental Unit shall take no action subsequent to the issuance of the 2009)-2
Governmental Unit Note which would cause the interest on the Program Bonds to lose the
exemption from federal income tax under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as
amended, and in effect prior to the enactment of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, and the regulations
issued thereunder (collectively, the "1954 Code"), as such exemption is carried forward in the
exclusion of such interest from gross income for federal income tax purposes under the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in accordance with Sections 1312 through 1319 of the Tax
Reform Act of 1986.
Except as provided in this Agreement, the Governmental Unit hereby covenants to the
Sponsor and the holders of the Program Bonds that it will neither make nor cause to be made any
investment or other use of the proceeds of the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note which would
cause the Program Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" under Section 103(c) of the 1954 Code, as
amended, and the regulations issued thereunder, and that it will comply with the requirements of
such Section and regulations throughout the term of the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note, in
accordance with directions received by the Governmental Unit at the time the 2009)-2
Governmental Unit Note is made, or such other specific written directions of the Sponsor as the
Governmental Unit may receive so that no investment of the proceeds of the 2009)-2
Governmental Unit Note would cause the Program Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" or otherwise
adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Program Bonds.
The Sponsor shall give the Governmental Unit prompt notice of any investigation or
inquiry by any governmental agency concerning the tax exempt status of the Program Bonds,
and the Governmental Unit shall have the right to have its counsel present and participate in all

regulatory agency, so far as the Sponsor has the power to permit. The Governmental Unit shall
have no obligation to make any payment (whether as part of the Costs and Expenses of the

claimed or asserted taxability of the Program Bonds which arises as a result of any action or
omission of another Participating Governmental Unit.

Contractor, if applicable to receive reports and indemnity against claims, and the Sponsor's,

Unit and the Sponsor.
(b) The Indenture requires that if a Credit Facility is established for the Program
Bonds for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Program Bonds when due if other
moneys available under the Indenture are insufficient therefor, the rights to the payment of any
principal and/or interest paid by the Credit Facility Issuer shall be assigned to the Credit Facility
Issuer. Under certain circumstances provided in the Indenture, this Agreement and the 2009)-2
Governmental Unit Note may be assigned to a Credit Issuer or the issuer of a Local Letter of
Credit, if any.
SECTION 3.10 COVENANT REGARDING PLEDGED REVENUES.
(a) The Governmental Unit hereby covenants to take all lawful action necessary or
required to collect and receive the Pledged Revenues. The Governmental Unit further covenants
that it has full power to pledge the Pledged Revenues to the payment of the principal and interest
and other amounts becoming due on the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note or this Agreement as
described in this Agreement. To the extent that any Bonds may be payable from or secured by
Impact Fees or Special Assessments, the Governmental Unit hereby agrees to apply such fees
and assessments for the payment of all amounts due on such Bonds to the maximum extent

based on the Indenture or this Agreement against any member, officer, employee or agent of the

the gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith, fraud or deceit of such person. To the extent
permitted by law the Governmental Unit shall indemnify the Sponsor and any of its members,
officers, employees or agents and save them harmless against any liability intended to be
precluded by this Section resulting from the breach of this Agreement by the Governmental Unit
and not caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of such parties.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
SECTION 5.1 EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
Each of the following events is hereby defined as, and declared to be and shall constitute,
an "Event of Default":
(a) failure by the Governmental Unit to make any payment required to be made
pursuant to Section 3.3(a) hereof on or before the date the same is due provided notice of such
amount has been given as provided herein; or
(b) failure by the Governmental Unit to make any payment required to be made
pursuant to any other provision hereof within thirty (30) days after the same is due and notice
thereof has been furnished to the Governmental Unit; or
(c) with the exceptions of those covenants set forth in Section 3.3 hereof, failure by
the Governmental Unit to perform any other covenant, condition or agreement on its part to be
observed or performed under this Agreement for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice
specifying such failure and requesting that it be remedied is given to the Governmental Unit by
the Sponsor, the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, or the Trustee; provided, however, that if such
failure cannot reasonably be corrected within such thirty (30) day period, upon approval of the
Sponsor (which shall be granted if the Sponsor reasonably believes the failure can be cured
within 180 days), the Governmental Unit shall not be deemed to have committed an Event of
Default under this paragraph if it commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day
period and thereafter pursues the curing thereof with diligence; or
(d) if any of the representations, warranties or certifications of the Governmental Unit
under Section 1.2 hereof or otherwise made or delivered by the Governmental Unit in connection
herewith shall prove to be false or misleading in any material respect; or
(e) (1) the Governmental Unit shall make an assignment for the benefit of
creditors; (2) the Governmental Unit shall apply for or seek, the appointment of a receiver,
custodian, trustee, examiner, liquidator or similar official for it or any substantial part of its
property; (3) the Governmental Unit shall fail to file an answer or other pleading denying the
material allegations of any proceeding filed against it seeking to have the Governmental Unit
adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking dissolution, winding up, liquidation,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of the Governmental Unit or its debts
under any law relating to bankruptcy or insolvency; (4) the Governmental Unit shall take any

proceedings seeking an order for relief under federal bankruptcy law or seeking to be adjudicated
a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking dissolution, winding up, liquidation, reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy or
insolvency; or (3) without the application, approval or consent of the Governmental Unit, a
receiver, trustee, examiner, liquidator or similar official shall be appointed for the Governmental
Unit, or a proceeding described in Section 5.1(e)(3) shall be instituted against the Governmental
Unit and such appointment continues undischarged or such proceeding continues undismissed or
unstayed for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days; the mere declaration by the Governmental
Unit of a state of financial emergency under Section 218.503, Florida Statutes, as amended, shall
not, in and of itself, constitute a default under this Section 5.1(f); or
(g) if a Local Letter of Credit has been provided with respect to the Series 2009)-2
Loan, the failure of the Governmental Unit to provide a replacement for any such Local Letter of
Credit, which replacement has been approved in writing by the Sponsor, by the 15th day prior to
the expiration or non-renewal of the existing Local Letter of Credit.
SECTION 5.2 ACCELERATION.
If an Event of Default as defined in Section 5.1(a), (b), (e) or (f) hereof shall have

Letter of Credit if any pursuant to Section 5.1(g) hereof, the Series 2009)-2 Loan, and all other
sums which the Governmental Unit is obligated to pay under this Agreement shall, upon
direction of the Sponsor, become due and payable immediately, and the Commitment shall
terminate, without further notice to the Governmental Unit; provided, however, that no such
acceleration may occur until such time as Bonds Outstanding under the Bond Resolution are
accelerated under the provisions of the Bond Resolution. If any other Event of Default shall
have occurred, the Trustee (as the Sponsor's assignee, or any assignee of the Trustee or Co-
Trustee, as may be the case) shall, but only upon direction of the Sponsor, by notice in writing to
the Governmental Unit, declare the Series 2009)-2 Loan and all other sums which the
Governmental Unit is obligated to pay hereunder to be due and payable immediately. Upon any
such acceleration whether automatically or by declaration, anything in this Agreement contained
to the contrary notwithstanding, there shall become immediately due and payable, in addition to
any other amounts then due from the Governmental Unit hereunder, the sum of: (i) the
outstanding principal amount of the Series 2009)-2 Loan; (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on the
Series 2009)-2 Loan; and (iii) any amount payable in excess of the sum of: (x) the unpaid
principal balance of the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note plus (y) accrued and unpaid interest
thereon and provided that there shall be no double counting of amounts due hereunder and under
such Sections.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is hereby agreed that neither the 2009)-2 Governmental
Unit Note nor this Agreement shall be accelerated so long as any other Bonds are Outstanding
under the Bond Resolution, unless all such other Outstanding Bonds are also accelerated under
the provisions of the Bond Resolution.

(a) The Governmental Unit covenants that, in case an Event of Default shall occur in
the payment of any sum payable by the Governmental Unit under Section 3.3 of this Loan
Agreement as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity or by
acceleration or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Sponsor, the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, or
the Trustee, but only upon direction of the Sponsor, the Governmental Unit will pay to the
Trustee (or its assignee) an amount equal to the sum of: (i) the amount described in Section 5.2
hereof; and (ii) any other amounts which the Governmental Unit is obligated to pay under this
Agreement; and (iii) such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and
expenses of collection, including a reasonable compensation to the Sponsor and the Trustee, and
any agents, employees, officials, attorneys and counsel of the Trustee or the Sponsor.
(b) In case the Governmental Unit shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such
demand, the Sponsor or the Trustee (or its assignee) shall be entitled and empowered but only
upon direction of the Sponsor, to institute any actions or proceedings at law or in equity for the
collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to
judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the
Governmental Unit and collect in the manner provided by law.
(c) In case any proceedings shall be pending for the bankruptcy or for the
reorganization of the Governmental Unit under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other
applicable law, or in case a receiver or trustee shall have been appointed for the property of the
Governmental Unit, or in case any other similar judicial proceedings shall be pending relating to
the Governmental Unit or to the creditors or property of the Governmental Unit, the Trustee (or
its assignee) shall be entitled and empowered, to the extent permitted by law, by intervention in
such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of the
Series 2009)-2 Loan made to the Governmental Unit pursuant to this Loan Agreement and for
interest owing and unpaid in respect thereof and to file such proofs of claim and other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to prosecute the claims of the Trustee (or
its assignee) in any such judicial proceedings relating to the Governmental Unit, its creditors, or
its property, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on
any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of its charges and expenses. Any
receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized to make such
payments to the Trustee (or its assignee), and to pay to the Trustee (or its assignee) any amount it
requires for reasonable compensation and expenses, including reasonable counsel fees it has
incurred up to the date of such distribution in connection with the Series 2009)-2 Loan.

Sponsor or the Trustee (or its assignee) shall, but only if directed by the Sponsor, take whatever
action at law or in equity as may appear necessary or desirable to collect the amounts payable by

under this Agreement, including the application of any undisbursed Series 2009)-2 Loan
proceeds to the reduction of the outstanding balance of such Series 2009)-2 Loan.
(b) Whenever any Event of Default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing,
before or after declaring an acceleration pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof, the Sponsor or the
Trustee (or its assignee) may, but shall not be obligated to, perform for the account of the
Governmental Unit any covenant or obligation in the performance of which the Governmental
Unit is in default, in which event the Governmental Unit shall immediately reimburse the
Sponsor or the Trustee (or its assignee), as the case may be, upon demand for all reasonable
expenses incurred by the Sponsor or the Trustee (or its assignee), as the case may be, in the
course of such performance, including reasonable counsel fees, with interest from the date of
such expenditure at the Prime Rate then in effect.
(c) No action taken pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall relieve the Governmental Unit
from its obligations pursuant to Sections 3.3, 3.5 and 5.3 hereof, all of which shall survive any
such action. The Sponsor or the Trustee (or its assignee) may, and upon direction of the Credit
Facility Issuer, shall take whatever action at law or in equity as may appear necessary and
desirable to collect the amounts then due and thereafter to become due from the Governmental
Unit, or to enforce the performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of
the Governmental Unit hereunder.
(d) Except as to the Sponsor's rights to indemnity and reports from the Governmental
Unit hereunder, the Sponsor's right to enforce the remedies described in this Section 5.4 shall not
be exclusive, and the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, and the Trustee shall also have the right to
enforce these remedies.
SECTION 5.5 CUMULATIVE RIGHTS.
No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Sponsor, the Credit Facility Issuer, if any,
or the Trustee (or its assignee) by this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other
available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be
in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or by statute. No waiver by the Sponsor, the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, or the
Trustee (or its assignee) of any breach by the Governmental Unit of any of its obligations,
agreements or covenants hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach, or a
waiver of any other obligation, agreement or covenant, and no delay or failure by the Sponsor,
the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, or the Trustee (or its assignee) to exercise any right or power
shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such
right and power may be exercised by the Sponsor, the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, or the
Trustee (or its assignee) from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.

SECTION 5.6 DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS.
In case the Sponsor, the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, or the Trustee (or its assignee) shall
have proceeded to enforce any right under this Agreement and such proceedings shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the
Sponsor, the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, or the Trustee (or its assignee), then and in every such
case the Governmental Unit, the Sponsor, the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, and the Trustee (or its

any remedy hereunder, except to the extent that such enforcement or remedy is permitted to be
exercised by the Holder of the 2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note under the Bond Resolution. In
the event that the exercise of remedies or enforcement of rights is so limited at any time, the
Credit Facility Issuer, if any, shall have the right to direct the Trustee to submit, prosecute and
pursue claims for payment of all amounts due from the Governmental Unit hereunder or on the
2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note, and to otherwise direct the pursuit of all available remedies,

during the pendency of any such default by the Governmental Unit, such Provider shall have no
right to direct the actions of the Trustee regarding enforcement of the Series 2009)-2 Loan or the
2009)-2 Governmental Unit Note, and the Trustee shall enforce this Agreement and the 2009)-2
Governmental Unit Note for the benefit of the Sponsor and the holders of the Program Bonds, at
the direction of the Sponsor, having due regard for the interests of the holders of Program Bonds,

STORMWATER REVENUE REFUNDING BOND
TAXABLE SERIES 2009)-2
Maturity Date Interest Rate Original Issue Date
December 1, % December 1, 2009
Registered Holder: U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee
Principal Amount:
For value received, the City of Miami Beach, Florida (the "Governmental Unit"), a
municipal corporation of the State of Florida, hereby promises to pay to the Registered Holder
shown above, as assignee of the Sponsor (as hereafter defined), or to the Credit Facility Issuer, if
any, as its assignee, solely from the Pledged Revenues hereafter mentioned, on the Maturity Date
shown above the Principal Amount shown above, and to pay, solely from such sources, interest
thereon from the Original Issue Date shown above at the Interest Rate per annum shown above
on each June 1 and December 1, commencing June 1, 2010.
In addition to such amounts, the actual amounts due in repayment of the Series 2009)-2
Loan (hereafter defined) shall also include certain amounts described in the Loan Agreement of
even date herewith (the "Loan Agreement") between and among the City of Gulf Breeze, Florida
(the "Sponsor"), the Governmental Unit and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor
Trustee, the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference, including, without
limitation, as provided in Section 3.3 of the Loan Agreement, the Reserve Payment (as such term
is defined in the Loan Agreement), if such Reserve Payment shall be due pursuant to the
provisions of Section 3.5 of the Loan Agreement.
Any payment required to be made with respect to the Series 2009)-2 Loan which is
received later than its due date shall bear interest from such due date at a rate equal to the higher
of the rate of interest on this Bond or the Prime Rate, plus two per centum per annum (the
"Default Rate"). In addition, if an acceleration of the Series 2009)-2 Loan is declared pursuant
to Section 5.2 of the Loan Agreement following an Event of Default pursuant to the Loan
A-1
Agreement, the interest rate on this Bond shall be increased to the Default Rate, and certain
additional amounts shall be payable, as provided in said Section 5.2.
All amounts payable hereunder shall be payable at the designated office of U.S. Bank
National Association, Orlando, Florida, as Bond Registrar for the Governmental Unit. As
provided in the Loan Agreement, the final scheduled payment of principal on the Series 2009)-2
Loan (as hereinafter defined) shall be due and payable to the Trustee not less than three Business
Days prior to such final scheduled payment date.
As set forth in the Loan Agreement, a default of the Governmental Unit may also result
in a requirement that the Governmental Unit make certain additional payments with respect to a
portion of the Debt Service Reserve Fund, as defined in the Loan Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything otherwise contained in this Bond, the interest rate on this Bond
and other amounts payable by the Governmental Unit under the Loan Agreement that are treated
as interest under applicable law, shall not exceed the Maximum Rate as defined in the Loan
Agreement; provided, that, in the event the imposition of such Maximum Rate shall ever cause
the amount payable on this Bond to be less than the amount of interest which would otherwise be
computed pursuant to the Loan Agreement, this Bond shall thereafter bear interest at the
Maximum Rate until the earlier of (1) the final maturity of this Bond or (2) such time as the total
amount of interest paid on this Bond shall at such rate equals the amount of interest which would
have been payable on this Bond without regard to any Maximum Rate.
All payments made hereunder shall be applied first to payment of accrued interest on the
unpaid principal balance hereof at the aforesaid rate, and then to reduction of principal and
payment of other amounts due hereunder. In the event the full amount of this Bond is not
disbursed, the payments of principal due hereunder shall be reduced ratably to reflect such
reduction in the principal amount due hereunder.
This Bond is one of a series of bonds designated "Stormwater Revenue Refunding Bonds,
Taxable Series 2009)-2," issued by the Governmental Unit in the aggregate principal amount of
$~] to evidence the obligation to repay a loan (the "Series 2009)-2 Loan") made to the

"Refunding Program"). This Bond is issued under and pursuant to Resolution No. 2000-24127
adopted by the Mayor and City Commission of the Governmental Unit on October 18, 2000, as
amended and supplemented, and Resolution No. 2009- adopted by the Mayor and City
Commission of the Governmental Unit on October 14, 2009 (collectively, the "Resolution").
The Loan is being made by the Sponsor, from the proceeds of its Local Government Loan
Program Floating Rate Demand Revenue Bonds, Series 1985) (the "Program Bonds"). The
Program Bonds are issued under a Trust Indenture dated as of December 1, 1985, as amended
and restated as of July 1, 1986, as further amended and supplemented, between the Sponsor and
U.S. Bank National Association, as successor Trustee, and as particularly amended and

contained, in the Loan Agreement and the Resolution. This Bond shall not be secured by, nor
payable from moneys, Reserve Account Insurance Policies or Reserve Account Letters of Credit
on deposit in, the Reserve Account.

Except as otherwise provided herein, all capitalized terms used herein which are defined
in the Loan Agreement or in the Resolution shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan
Agreement or the Resolution, as applicable.

received by the Escrow Agent will be sufficient to purchase $ par amount of

redemption premium and interest on the Refunded Bonds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the

Section 3.05. Substitution of Certain Government Obligations.
(a) If so directed in writing by the City on the date of delivery of this Agreement, the
Escrow Agent shall accept in substitution for all or a portion of the Goven°unent Obligations
listed in Schedule B, Government Obligations (the "Substituted Securities"), the principal of and
interest on which, together with any Government Obligations listed in Schedule B for which no
substitution is made and moneys held uninvested by the Escrow Agent, will be sufficient to pay
all principal of and redemption premium and interest on the Refunded Bonds as set forth in
Schedule C hereof. The foregoing notwithstanding, the substitution of Substituted Securities for
any of the Government Obligations listed in Schedule B may be effected only upon compliance
with Section 3.05(b)(1) and (2) below.
(b) If so directed in writing by the City at any time during the term of this Agreement,
the Escrow Agent shall sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or request the
redemption of, all or a portion of the Government Obligations then held in the Escrow Deposit
Trust Fund and shall substitute for such Government Obligations other Government Obligations,
designated by the City, and acquired by the Escrow Agent with the proceeds derived from the
sale, transfer, disposition or redemption of or by the exchange of such Government Obligations
held in the Escrow Deposit Trust Fund, but only upon the receipt by the Escrow Agent of:
(1) an opinion of nationally recognized counsel in the field of law relating to
municipal bonds stating that such substitution will not adversely affect the exclusion from
gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Refunded Bonds or the
exemption from federal income tax of interest on the Program Bonds and is not
inconsistent with the statutes and regulations applicable to the Refunded Bonds and the
Program Bonds; and
(2) verification by a firm of independent certified public accountants or a firm
of verification agents having a nationally recognized practice of escrow verifications for
municipal bonds, stating that the principal of and interest on the substituted Government
Obligations, together with any Government Obligations and any uninvested moneys
remaining in the Escrow Deposit Trust Fund will be sufficient, without reinvestment, to
pay the remaining principal of and redemption premium and interest on the Refunded
Bonds as set forth in Schedule C hereof.
Any moneys resulting from the sale, transfer, disposition or redemption of the Government
Obligations held hereunder and the substitution therefor of other Government Obligations not
required to be applied for the payment of such principal of, redemption premium and interest on
the Refunded Bonds (as shown in the verification report described in Section 3.05(b)(2) hereof
delivered in connection with such substitution), shall, subject to the provisions of the Refunding
Loan Agreement, be deposited in the Enterprise Fund established under the Bond Resolution.
Upon any such substitution of Government Obligations pursuant to Section 3.05, Schedule B
hereto shall be appropriately amended to reflect such substitution.
The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to inquire whether the Government Obligations
as deposited in the Escrow Deposit Trust Fund are properly invested under the Code. The
5
RIL-09/30/09 Rev. 10/03/09
Rev. 10/07/09-8105 (Stormwater)-EDA v3
Escrow Agent may rely on all specific directions in this Agreement providing for the investment
or reinvestment of the Escrow Deposit Trust Fund.
Section 3.06. Transfers from Escrow Deposit Trust Fund. As the principal of the
Government Obligations set forth in Schedule B shall mature and be paid, and the investment
income and earnings thereon are paid, the Escrow Agent shall pay from such moneys to U.S.
Bank National Association, in its capacity of paying agent with respect to the Refunded Bonds
(as paying agent and bond registrar with respect to the Refunded Bonds, the "Refunded Bonds
