WHEREAS, the City of Miami Beach, Florida (the "City") , has by reso-
lution adopted on the date hereof (the "Authorizing Resolution") authorized
the issuance of its Parking Revenue Bonds, Series 1988 in the aggregate prin-
cipal amount not to exceed $12,000,000 (the "Series 1988 Bonds") for the pur-
pose of (a) providing funds, together with any other available funds, to re-
fund and defease all of the City's Outstanding Parking Revenue Bonds, Series
1984 (the "Refunded Bonds") which were issued pursuant to Resolution
No. 78-15748 and Resolution. No. 84-17654 (collectively, the "Series 1984
Resolution") , (b) paying all l or part of the Costs of the Series 1988 Project
(as defined in the Authorizing Resolution) , (c) funding the Reserve Account
(as defined in the Authorizing Resolution) , and (d) paying the Initial Credit
Enhancement Charges (as defined in the Authorizing Resolution) and Issuance
Expenses (as defined in the Authorizing Resolution) of the Series 1988 Bonds;
and
WHEREAS, due to the volatility of the municipal bond market and the
sensitivity of advance refundings to interest rate fluctuations, it is not de-
sirable to conduct the sale of refunding bonds by public bidding because, dur-
ing the time involved in preparation for and conducting a sale by public
bidding, interest rates could increase substantially. Therefore, it is desir-
able to sell the Series 1988 Bonds by a negotiated sale which may be accom-
plished quickly and the City has been conducting negotiations for the sale of
the Series 1988 Bonds; and
WHEREAS, as a result of such negotiations, the City anticipates re-
ceiving an offer, from the purchasers named in the Bond Purchase Contract (the
"Bond Purchase Contract") the form of which has been presented to the meeting
at which this resolution is adopted, to purchase the Series 1988 Bonds, sub-
ject to the terms and conditions set forth in such form of the Bond Purchase
Contract and such additional terms and conditions to be determined by the
Mayor, as herein provided; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to sell the Series 1988 Bonds pursuant to
the terms and conditions of the Bond Purchase Contract and this Resolution, to
authorize the purchase of municipal bond insurance for the Series 1988 Bonds,
to authorize the execution of a Trustee, Registrar and Paying Agent Agreement,
to approve the distribution of the Preliminary/ Official Statement for the
Series 1988 Bonds, to authorize the execution and distribution of a final
Official Statement for the Series 1988 Bonds, to `provide for a book-entry-only
system with respect thereto, and to authorize the execution of an Escrow
Deposit Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the City anticipates receiving all applicable disclosure in-
formation required by Section 218.385, Florida Statutes prior to the execution
of the Bond Purchase Contract;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Authorization of Negotiated Sale. Due to the complexity
of the financing plan for the Series 1988 Bonds, the interest rate sensitivity
of advance fundings, and the current rapidly changing bond market conditions,
it is hereby determined that it is in the public interest and in the best in-
terest of the City to sell the Series 1988 Bonds by a negotiated sale in order
to obtain the most favorable terms in the bond market. A negotiated sale of
the Series 1988 Bonds is hereby authorized and approved. The disclosure in-
formation required by Section 218.385, Florida Statutes shall be provided to
the City, and be attached to the Bond Purchase Contract (described below prior
to the execution of the Bond Purchase Contract) .
SECTION 2. Terms of Series 1988 Bonds and Terms of Sale. The Com-
mission has determined that a negotiated sale of the Series 1988 Bonds is in
the best interests of the City for the reasons stated in Section 1 hereof and
has negotiated for the sale of the Series 1988 Bonds to Lazard Freres & Co. ,
Chase Manhattan Capital Markets Corporation and Raymond James & Associates,
Inc. (hereinafter collectively called the "Original Purchaser") . The Original
Purchaser has presented to the Commission a form of Bond Purchase Contract for
the Series 1988 Bonds which is in substantially final form except for the
matters to be established by the Mayor's Certificate, as hereinafter provided.
The Commission hereby approves the form of the Bond Purchase Contract for the
Series 1988 Bonds. The Commission authorizes the Mayor to negotiate and to
establish, by the Mayor's Certificate for the Series 1988 Bonds, the following
details of the Series 1988 Bonds and of the sale thereof:
(i) Principal Amount. The Commission hereby authorizes the Mayor to
establish, by the Mayor's Certificate for the Series 1988 Bonds,
the aggregate principal amount of the Series 1988 Bonds to be
sold and issued thereof, but not to exceed $12,000,000;
(ii) Maturities. The Commission hereby authorizes the Mayor to
establish, by the Mayor's Certificate for the Series 1988 Bonds,
the stated maturity dates of the Series 1988 Bonds, provided the
final maturity date shall not be later than September 1 , 2020.
Said authorization includes the authorization to determining
which, if any, of the Series 1988 Bonds shall be Serial Bonds
and which, if any, shall be Term Bonds;
(iii) Redemption Provisions. The Commission hereby authorizes and di-
rects the Mayor to establish, by the Mayor's Certificate for the
Series 1988 Bonds, the redemption provisions for the Series 1988
Bonds, provided, however, that the first permitted optional re-
demption date for the Series 1988 Bonds shall be not later than
ten (10) years after the date of issuance of the Series 1988
Bonds and that no redemption price shall be in excess of one
hundred three percent (103%) of the principal amount at maturity
of any such Series 1988 Bond. The Mayor shall also establish,
by the Mayor's Certificate for the Series 1988 Bonds, the manda-
tory redemption schedule applicable to any maturity of Series
1988 Bonds which are Term Bonds;
(iv) Interest Rates and Price. The Commission hereby authorizes the
Mayor to establish, by the Mayor's Certificate for the Series
1988 Bonds, the interest rate for each maturity of the Series
1988 Bonds and any original issue discount applicable to each
such maturity. The Series 1988 Bonds shall be sold at an under-
writer's discount (exclusive of any original issue discount) not
in excess of three percent (3%) of the initial principal amount
thereof. The netinterest cost rate borne by the Series 1988
- 2 -
Bonds shall not exceed the maximum interest rate allowed by law;
and
(v) Sources and Uses of Funds. The Mayor is hereby authorized and
directed to negotiate and establish a schedule of Sources and
Uses of Funds showing the uses of proceeds of the Series 1988
Bonds and of any amounts held in Funds heretofore created by the
Series 1984 Resolution which are to be used:
(1) To fund the Escrow Fund to be created under the Escrow De-
posit Agreement (hereinafter approved) ;
(2) To fund the Reserve Account created by the Authorizing Re-
solution;
(3) To pay Initial Credit Enhancement Charges and Issuance Ex-
penses; and

ance of the Series 1988 Bonds from the sources described in the
Sources and Uses of Funds schedule.
The execution and delivery by the Mayor of the Mayor's Certificate for the
Series 1988 Bonds determining the matters described in this Section 2 shall be
conclusive evidence of the Commission's approval of such matters.
SECTION 3. Terms of Series 1988 Bonds. The Series 1988 Bonds shall
be dated December 1 , 1988 and shall bear interest payable March 1 and
September 1, commencing March 1 , 1989. The Series 1988 Bonds shall mature on
September 1 in the years, not later than 2020, and in the amounts and shall

be established by the Mayor's Certificate for the Series 1988 Bonds shall be
subject to optional redemption prior to their stated maturity, on or after the
Call Date, at the option of the City, in whole at any time or in part from
time to time on any Interest Payment Date, at such redemption prices, not to
exceed one hundred three percent (103%) of the principal amounts redeemed, as
shall be established by the Mayor's Certificate for the Series 1988 Bonds; ac-
crued interest shall be paid thereon in the usual manner to the date fixed for
redemption. If less than all of the Series 1988 Bonds shall be called for re-
demption, the maturities of the Series 1988 Bonds to be redeemed shall be
selected in such manner as the City, in its discretion shall determine, and if
less than all of a single maturity shall be called for redemption, the Series
1988 Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by a lot within said maturity by
the Trustee.
Any Series 1988 Bonds which are Term Bonds, as shall be estab-
lished by the Mayor's Certificate for the Series 1988 Bonds, shall be subject
to mandatory redemption at par prior to their stated maturity, on September 1
of such years and in such amounts as shall be established by the Mayor's Cer-
tificate for the Series 1988 Bonds; accrued interest shall be paid thereon in
the usual manner to the date fixed for redemption.

fications as shall be necessary to reflect the terms set forth herein, in the
Bond Purchase Contract and in the Mayor's Certificate for the Series 1988
Bonds; the form of the Series 1988 Bonds may include such other terms and pro-
visions as the Mayor shall deem appropriate. The Mayor's approval of the form
of the Series 1988 Bonds shall be conclusively established by his execution
thereof.
- 3 - •
The Series 1988 Bonds are authorized under and secured by the
Authorizing Resolution and shall be sold and issued pursuant to this Resolu-
tion (collectively, the "Bond Resolutions") and shall be executed by the
Mayor, attested by the City Clerk and delivered to or upon the order of the
Original Purchaser. Such delivery of the Series 1988 Bonds shall be made upon
the payment of the purchase price thereof as set forth in the Bond Purchase
Contract, plus accrued interest on the Series 1988 Bonds from their dated date
to their date of delivery, all in accordance with the provisions stated in the
Bond Resolutions, the Bond Purchase Contract and the Mayor's Certificate for
the Series 1988 Bonds.
The Commission hereby provides, pursuant to the provisions of
Section 5 of the Authorizing Resolution, that the Registrar shall not be re-
quired to transfer or exchange any Series 1988 Bond during the period com-
mencing fifteen (15) days prior to any Interest Payment Date and ending at the
close of business on such Interest Payment Date or during the period commenc-
ing fifteen (15) days prior to the day of mailing of a notice of redemption of
any Series 1988 Bonds and ending at the close of business on the day of such
mailing and the Registrar shall also not be required to transfer, exchange, or
replace any Series 1988 Bond which has been selected for redemption in whole
or in part.
SECTION 4. Payment of Bonds; Book-Entry System; Notice of
Redemption.
(a) Medium of Payment. Debt service on the Series 1988 Bonds shall
be payable in lawful money of the United States of America without deduction
for the services of the Paying Agent.
(b) Payment of Principal and Premium. The principal of and any pre-
mium on each Series 1988 Bond shall be payable when due upon presentation and
surrender of such Series 1988 Bond at the principal corporate trust office of
the Paying Agent, together with an assignment in form satisfactory to the
Registrar duly executed by the registered owner thereof or his duly authorized
attorney with signature guaranteed by a commercial bank, trust company or mem-
ber firm of the New York Stock Exchange.
(c) Payment of Interest. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 of
the Authorizing Resolution, the Commission declares that the following provi-
sions shall be applicable to the payment of interest on the Series 1988 Bonds:
interest on each Series 1988 Bond shall be paid on each Interest Payment Date
by check or draft, mailed by the Paying Agent on that Interest Payment Date to
the Person who was the registered owner of such Series 1988 Bond (or of one or
more Predecessor Bonds) as of the close of business on the fifteenth (15th)
day of the calendar month immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date
(being the "Regular Record Date" applicable to that Interest Payment Date) at
the address of such registered owner as it appears on the Register as of the
close of business of the Registrar on such Regular Record Date; provided, how-
ever, that (upon written request of the Holder of $1 ,000,000 or more in prin-
cipal amount of Series 1988 Bonds) interest may be paid when due by wire, in
which case the City agrees to reimburse the Paying Agent for the cost of such
wire. If and to the extent, however, that the City fails to make payment or
provision for payment on any Interest Payment Date of interest on any Series
1988 Bond, that interest shall cease to be payable to the Person who was the
Holder of that Series 1988 Bond (or of one or more Predecessor Bonds) as of
the applicable Regular Record Date. When moneys become available for payment
of the delinquent interest (together with interest on such delinquent interest
at the rate specified in such Series 1988 Bond) , the Registrar shall establish
a Special Interest Payment Date for the payment of that delinquent interest
(and interest thereon) , and a Special Record Date therefor, which Special
Record Date shall be not more than fifteen (15) nor fewer than ten (10) days
prior to the Special Interest Payment Date. The Registrar shall cause notice
of the proposed payment, of the Special Interest Payment Date and of the
Special Record Date to be mailed, not fewer than ten (10) days preceding the
Special Record Date, to each Person who was the registered owner of such
Series 1988 Bond (or one or more Predecessor Bonds) as of the close of bus-
iness of the Registrar on the fifteenth (15th) day preceding such mailing at
such Person's address as it appears on the Register on the fifteenth (15th)
day preceding the mailing of such notice. Thereafter, the delinquent interest
- 4 - •
(together with interest on such delinquent interest at the rate specified in
such Series 1988 Bond) shall be payable to the Person who was the Holder of
such Series 1988 Bond (or one or more Predecessor Bonds) as of the close of
business of the Registrar on the Special Record Date.
(d) Book-Entry System. Pursuant to Section 2 of the Authorizing
Resolution, the Commission hereby establishes a Book-Entry System (as defined
in the Authorizing Resolution and herein called a "book-entry-only system) for
the Series 1988 Bonds. The following provisions shall apply with respect to
the Series 1988 Bonds while they are registered in a book-entry-only system
with The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") , New York, New York, an automated
securities depository and clearinghouse for securities transactions, pursuant
to a Representation Letter (the "Representation Letter") substantially in the
form presented to the meeting at which this resolution is adopted. The
Representation Letter sets forth certain matters with respect to, among other
things, notices, consents and approvals by bondholders and payments on the
Series 1988 Bonds, which Representation Letter is hereby authorized and ap-
proved in substantially the form presented to the meeting at which this
Resolution is adopted and filed with the records of the Commission and incor-
porated herein by reference. The Mayor of the City is hereby authorized to
execute and deliver such Representation Letter, with such additional changes,
insertions and omissions therein as do not materially change the substance
thereof and as may be approved by the Mayor, said execution to be conclusive
evidence of such approval.
The Series 1988 Bonds are to be issued initially in the form of
one fully registered Series 1988 Bond for each maturity, each in the aggregate
principal amount of such maturity, registered as to both principal and inter-
est in the name of Cede & Co. , the sole registered owner of the Series 1988
Bonds, as nominee for DTC. On original issue, the Series 1988 Bonds are to be
deposited with DTC, which will be responsible for maintaining a book-entry-
only system for (a) recording the ownership of beneficial interests of its
participants (the "DTC Participants") , which include certain banks, trust com-
panies, securities brokers and dealers, clearing corporation and certain other
organizations, and (b) the transfer of the beneficial interests among the DTC
Participants. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as
banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a
custodial relationship with a DTC Participant, either directly or indirectly
(the "Indirect Participants") . Purchasers of beneficial interests in the
Series 1988 Bonds under the book-entry-only system may be made only through
brokers and dealers who are, or act through DTC Participants. The DTC Par-
ticipants purchasing beneficial interests in the Series 1988 Bonds shall re-
ceive a credit balance in the records of DTC. The DTC Participants and
Indirect Participants will be responsible for maintaining records with respect
to the ownership of individual purchasers of beneficial interests in the
Series 1988 Bonds. Owners of beneficial interests will receive from the ap-
plicable DTC Participants or Indirect Participants a written confirmation of
their purchase providing details of the Series 1988 Bonds in which such bene-
ficial interests are acquired.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Bond Resolutions to
the contrary, so long as the Series 1988 Bonds are registered in the name of
Cede & Co. , as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect to the principal of
and premium, if any, and interest on such Series 1988 Bonds and all notices
with respect to such Series 1988 Bonds shall be made and given, respectively,
to DTC as provided in the Representation Letter and any notice to be provided
to registered owners of the Series 1988 Bonds will be provided to DTC in such
manner.
Disbursal of such amounts of principal of and premium, if any,
and interest on the Series 1988 Bonds to the DTC Participants is the responsi-
bility of DTC. DTC's current practice is immediately to credit the accounts
of the DTC Participants in accordance with their respective holdings shown on
the records of DTC. Payments by DTC Participants and Indirect Participants to
beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary
practices, as is now the case with municipal securities held in bearer form or
in "street name" for the accounts of customers, and will be the responsibility
of such DTC Participant or Indirect Participant, subject to statutory and
regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Provision of
- 5 -
any such notice by DTC to the DTC Participants, by DTC Participants to
Indirect Participants and by DTC Participants and Indirect Participants to
beneficial owners of the Series 1988 Bonds will be governed by arrangements
among them, subject to any statutory and regulatory requirements as may be in
effect from time to time. Any failure of DTC to notify a DTC Participant, or
of a DTC Participant to notify an Indirect Participant, or of a DTC Partici-
pant
artisi-
pant or Indirect Participant to notify an owner of a beneficial interest in
any Series 1988 Bond, of any notice of redemption and its content and effect,
shall not effect the validity of the redemption of any Series 1988 Bond called
for redemption or of any action premised on such notice. The City, the
Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar shall not be responsible or liable
for the failure of DTC, DTC Participants or Indirect Participants to make any
payment or give any notice to any owner of a beneficial interest in any Series
1988 Bond in respect of such Series 1988 Bond or any error or delay relating
thereto.
In connection with any notice or other communication to be pro-
vided to the registered owners of the Series 1988 Bonds, pursuant to the Bond
Resolutions, by the City, the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent with
respect to any consent or other action to be taken by such registered owners,
the City, the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent, as the case may be,
shall establish a record date for such consent or other action and give DTC
notice of such record date not less than fifteen (15) calendar days in advance
of such record date to the extent possible. Notice shall be given only to DTC
so long as DTC (or its nominee, Cede & Co. ) is the sole registered owner of
the Series 1988 Bonds.
Under DTC's current procedures, neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will
provide any consents with respect to the Series 1988 Bonds. DTC will mail an
Omnibus Proxy to the City as soon as possible after the record date, which
will assign Cede & Co. 's voting rights to the DTC Participants having bene-
ficial interests in the Series 1988 Bonds credited to their accounts on the
record date.
Individuals may purchase beneficial interests in the Series 1988
Bonds, in the amount of $5,000 or integral multiples thereof, and the book-
entry-only system for recording ownership of beneficial interests shall be ap-
plicable to the Series 1988 Bonds, unless otherwise determined by the City.
The only authorized denominations for the Series 1988 Bonds of each maturity,
shall be in the aggregate amount of such maturity, as reduced from time to
time prior to maturity in connection with redemptions or retirements by pur-
chase, call or payment.
During the period for which Cede & Co. , as nominee for DTC, is
the registered owner of the Series 1988 Bonds, DTC fees in connection with the
book-entry-only system are to be borne by the DTC Participants, except for the
payment by the City of a nominal fee for obtaining a position listing of the
DTC Participants, all as more fully set forth in Representation Letter. The
City, the Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent may treat DTC (or its
nominee, Cede & Co. ) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Series 1988 Bonds
registered in its name for the purposes of payment of the principal or redemp-
tion price of, or interest on, the Series 1988 Bonds, selecting the Series
1988 Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, giving any notice permitted or
required to be given to registered owners of the Series 1988 Bonds under the
Bond Resolutions, registering the transfer of Series 1988 Bonds, and for all
other purposes whatsoever, provided, however, that under DTC's current proce-
dures Cede & Co. 's voting rights with respect to the Series 1988 Bonds will be
assigned to the DTC Participants having beneficial interests in the Series
1988 Bonds credited to their accounts on the record date pursuant to an
Omnibus Proxy, and neither the City, the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying
Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the City, the
Trustee, the Registrar nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility or
obligation to any DTC Participant, any Indirect Participant, any person claim-
ing ownership of a beneficial interest in the Series 1988 Bonds under or
through DTC or any DTC Participant or any Indirect Participant, or any other
person which is not shown on the registration books of the Registrar as being
a bondholder, with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or
any DTC Participant or any Indirect Participant, with respect to the payment
by DTC or any DTC Participant or any Indirect Participant of any amount in
- 6 -
respect of the principal or redemption price of, or interest on, the Series
1988 Bonds, or with respect to any notice which is permitted or required to be
given to bondholders under the Bond Resolutions, or with respect to the selec-
tion by DTC or any DTC Participant or any Indirect Participant of any person
to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the Series 1988
Bonds, or with respect to any other action taken by DTC as bondholder, pro-
vided, however, that, under DTC's current procedures, Cede & Co. 's voting
rights with respect to the Series 1988 Bonds will be assigned to the DTC
Participants having beneficial interests in the Series 1988 Bonds credited to
their accounts on the record date pursuant to an Omnibus Proxy. The Paying
Agent shall pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the
Series 1988 Bonds only to DTC or to Cede & Co. in accordance with the Repre-
sentation Letter, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to satis-
fy and discharge in full the City's obligations with respect to the principal
of and premium, if any, and interest on the Series 1988 Bonds to the extent of
the sum or sums so paid. No person other than DTC (or its nominee, Cede &
Co. ) shall receive an authenticated Series 1988 Bond for each separate stated
maturity evidencing the obligation of the City to make payments of principal
of an premium, if any, and interest pursuant to the Bond Resolutions.
In the event that DTC determines not to continue to act as
securities depository for the Series 1988 Bonds or the City determines not to
continue the book-entry-only system for recording ownership of beneficial
interests in the Series 1988 Bonds with DTC, the City shall discontinue the
book-entry-only system with DTC. If the City does not select another quali-
fied securities depository to replace DTC (or a successor depository) in order
to continue a book-entry-only system for the Series 1988 Bonds, the Registrar,
in accordance with the Bond Resolutions, will reregister Series 1988 Bonds and
fully registered bond certificates, in authorized denominations of $5,000 or
integral multiples thereof, will be delivered in accordance with instructions
from DTC and others. In such event and thereafter the Series 1988 Bonds shall
be subject to the provisions of the Bond Resolutions regarding the method of
payment of principal of, redemption premium, if any, and interest on the
Series 1988 Bonds and to the provisions for registration, transfer, and ex-
change of Series 1988 Bonds. Except as set forth in the Bond Resolutions, the
City shall bear the costs incurred as a result of the termination of DTC in
connection with registration, transfer, cancellation, exchange and delivery of
the Series 1988 Bonds, including such fees as may be imposed by the Trustee or
Registrar for services performed. In the event that the City identifies a
qualified securities depository to replace DTC, Cede & Co. , as nominee for
DTC, would instruct the Registrar to, and the Registrar in accordance with the
Bond Resolutions would, register and deliver a replacement Series 1988 Bond
for each maturity, fully registered in the name of such depository, or its
nominee, in the original principal amount as reduced from time to time prior
to maturity in connection with redemptions or retirements by purchase, call or
payment, and in such event, such depository will then maintain the book-entry-
only system for recording ownership of beneficial interests in the Series 1988
Bonds.
(e) Notice of Redemption. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 9
of the Authorizing Resolution, the Commission declares that the following
provisions for the giving of notice of redemption shall be applicable to the
Series 1988 Bonds:
At least thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) day be-
fore the redemption date, a written notice of any such redemption, either in
whole or in part, signed by the Trustee, shall be mailed, postage prepaid to
all registered owners of 1988 Bonds to be redeemed at their addresses as they
appear on the registration books of the Registrar, but failure so to mail any
such notice to the registered owner of any 1988 Bonds shall not affect the
validity of the proceedings for redemption of any other bond. At any time
during which the book-entry-only system is in effect, notice of redemption
shall be sent only to DTC. Each such notice shall set forth the CUSIP number,
if any, the certificate number, the called amounts of each certificate, date
of issue, interest rate and maturity date of the 1988 Bonds to be redeemed and
shall also include the date fixed for redemption, the redemption price to be
paid and the name and address of the redemption agent. At any time during
which the book-entry-only system is in effect, notice of redemption shall only
be sent to DTC.

(a) A municipal bond insurance policy issued by AMBAC Indemnity
Corporation, a Wisconsin domiciled stock insurance company ("AMBAC Indemnity")
insuring the payment, when due, of the principal of and interest on the Series
1988 Bonds is hereby authorized to be purchased from AMBAC Indemnity. The
premium for such insurance is hereby authorized to be paid from the proceeds
of the Series 1988 Bonds; such premium shall constitute the Initial Credit
Enhancement Charges relating to the Series 1988 Bonds. A statement of insur-

Indemnity") , insuring the payment when due of the principal of and interest on
the Series 1988 Bonds (the "Insurance Policy") is in effect, and AMBAC
Indemnity is not in default with respect to the timely performance of all of
its obligations thereunder, the City (the "Issuer") or the Trustee and/or

(i) As soon as practicable after the filing thereof, a copy of
any financial statement of the Issuer and a copy of any
audit and annual report of the Issuer;

Issuer. The Issuer will permit AMBAC Indemnity to have ac-
cess to the Parking System (as defined in the Bond Resolu-
tions) and the Bank and the Issuer, as appropriate, will
permit AMBAC Indemnity to have access to and to make copies
of all books and records relating to the Bonds at any rea-
sonable time.
(vi) AMBAC Indemnity shall have the right to direct an account-
ing at the Issuer's expense, and the Issuer's failure to
comply with such direction within thirty (30) days after
receipt of written notice of the direction from AMBAC
Indemnity shall be deemed a default hereunder; provided,
however, that if compliance cannot occur within such
period, then such period shall be extended (so long as dur-
ing such thirty (30) day period as the Issuer has taken
reasonable action directed toward achieving compliance and
is diligently seeking to comply) , but only if such ex-
tension would not materially adversely affect the interests
of any registered owner of the Bonds.
(vii) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Bond Resolu-
tions, the Bank shall immediately notify AMBAC Indemnity:
(I) If at any time there are insufficient moneys to make
any payments of principal or interest on the Bonds;
- 8 -
A /e,//9/d lr
(II) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under the
Bond Resolutions; or
(III) Upon any breach by the Issuer of its obligations under
the Bond Resolutions.
(c) As long as the Insurance Policy shall be in full force and ef-
fect, the Issuer and the Bank, in its capacity as Trustee and Paying Agent for
the Bonds, agrees to comply with the following provisions:
(i) If five (5) days prior to an Interest Payment Date the Bank
determines that there will be insufficient moneys in the
Pledged Funds, which are available for such purpose, to pay
the principal of or interest on the Bonds on any date on
which such principal or interest is due, the Bank shall so
notify AMBAC Indemnity. Such notice shall specify the date
such payment is due, the amount of the anticipated defi-
ciency, the Bonds to which such deficiency is applicable
and whether such Bonds will be deficient as to principal or
interest, or both. If the Bank has not so notified AMBAC
Indemnity five (5) days prior to the date such payment is
due, AMBAC Indemnity shall make payments of principal or
interest due on the Bonds on or before the fifth (5th)
business day next following the date on which AMBAC
Indemnity shall have received notice of nonpayment from the
Bank.
(ii) The Bank shall, after giving notice to AMBAC Indemnity as
provided in (a) above, make available to AMBAC Indemnity
and, at AMBAC Indemnity's direction, to the United States
Trust Company of New York, as insurance trustee for AMBAC
Indemnity or any successor insurance trustee (the "Insur-
ance Trustee") , the registration books of the Issuer main-
tained by the Bank as Registrar for the Bonds and all re-
cords relating to the Funds and Accounts held by the Bank
under the Bond Resolutions.
(iii) The Bank shall provide AMBAC Indemnity and the Insurance
Trustee with a list of registered owners of Bonds who are
entitled to receive principal or interest payments from
AMBAC Indemnity under the terms of the Insurance Policy,
and shall make arrangements with the Insurance Trustee:
(I) To mail checks or drafts to the registered owners of
Bonds entitled to receive full or partial interest
payments from AMBAC Indemnity; and
(II) To pay the principal of any Bonds which are surren-
dered to the Insurance Trustee by the registered
owners of Bonds who are entitled to receive full or
partial principal payments from AMBAC Indemnity.
(iv) The Bank shall, at the time it provides notice to AMBAC
Indemnity pursuant to (i) above, notify registered owners
of Bonds entitled to receive the payment of principal or
interest thereon from AMBAC Indemnity (I) as to the fact of
such entitlement, (II) that AMBAC Indemnity will remit to
them all or a part of the interest payments next coming due
upon proof of bondholder entitlement to interest payments
and delivery to the Insurance Trustee, in form satisfactory
to the Insurance Trustee, of an appropriate assignment of
the registered owner's right to payment, (III) that should
they be entitled to receive full payment of principal from
AMBAC Indemnity, they must surrender their Bonds (along
with an appropriate instrument of assignment in form
satisfactory to AMBAC Indemnity to permit ownership of such
Bonds to be registered in the name of AMBAC Indemnity) for
payment to the Insurance Trustee, and not the Trustee or
- 9 -
Paying Agent, and (IV) that should they be entitled to
receive partial payment of principal from AMBAC Indemnity,
they must surrender their Bonds for payment thereon first
to the Bank, as Paying Agent, which shall note on such
Bonds the portion of the principal paid by the Bank, as
Paying Agent, and then, along with an appropriate
instrument of assignment, in form satisfactory to the
Insurance Trustee, which will then pay the unpaid portion
of such principal.
(v) In the event that the Bank has notice that any payment made
to a Bondholder by, or on behalf of, the Issuer of
principal of or interest on a Bond (which has become due
for payment) , has been deemed a "preferential transfer" and
theretofore recovered from such registered owner, pursuant
to the United States Bankruptcy Code, by a trustee in
bankruptcy in accordance with the final, non-appealable
order of a court having competent jurisdiction, the Bank
shall, at the time AMBAC Indemnity is notified pursuant to
(a) above, notify such registered owner that in the event
that such registered owner's payment is so recovered, such
registered owner will be entitled to payment from AMBAC
Indemnity, to the extent of such recovery, if sufficient
funds are not otherwise available to make such payment, and
the Bank shall furnish to AMBAC Indemnity its records
evidencing the payments of principal of and interest on the
Bonds which have been made by the Bank, as Paying Agent,
and which are subsequently recovered from registered owners
and the dates on which such payments were made.
(vi) In addition to those rights granted AMBAC Indemnity under
the Bond Resolutions, AMBAC Indemnity shall, to the extent
it makes payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds,
become subrogated to the rights of the recipients of such
payments in accordance with the terms of the Insurance
Policy, and to evidence such subrogation (i) in the case of
subrogation as to claims for past due interest, the Bank
shall note AMBAC Indemnity's rights as subrogee on the
registration books of the Issuer maintained by the Bank, as
Registrar, upon receipt from AMBAC Indemnity of proof of
the payment of interest thereon to the registered owners of
such Bonds, and (ii) in the case of subrogation as to
claims for past due principal, the Bank, as Registrar,
shall note AMBAC Indemnity's rights as subrogee on the
registration books of the Issuer maintained by the Bank, as
Registrar, upon surrender of such Bonds by the registered
owners thereof; such notations shall indicate the amount of
such payment to which AMBAC Indemnity's right of
subrogation applies and the Bank's records shall include
proof of the payment of any such principal or interest.
(vii) The Trustee may be removed by the City at any time, at the
request of AMBAC Indemnity, for any breach of the trust set
forth in the Bond Resolutions.
(viii) AMBAC Indemnity shall receive prior written notice from the
Trustee of any Trustee resignation.
(ix) Every successor Trustee appointed pursuant to the Bond
Resolutions shall be a trust company or bank in good stand-
ing located in or incorporated under the laws of the State,
duly authorized to exercise trust powers and subject to
examination by federal or state authority, having a report-
ed capital and surplus of not less than $75,000,000 and ac-
ceptable to AMBAC Indemnity.

(x) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Bond Resolu-
tions, in determining whether the rights of the Bond hold-
ers will be adversely affected by any action taken pursuant
to the terms and provisions of the Bond Resolutions, the
Trustee shall consider the effect on the Bondholders as if
there were no Municipal Bond Insurance Policy.
(xi) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Bond Resolu-
tions, no removal, resignation or termination of the
Trustee shall take effect until a successor, acceptable to
AMBAC Indemnity, shall be appointed.
(xii) Nothing in the Bond Resolutions, expressed or implied is
intended or shall be construed to confer upon, or to give
to, any person or entity, other than the Issuer, the
Trustee, AMBAC Indemnity (and other Providers) , the Paying
Agent, if any, and the registered owners of the Bonds, any
right, remedy or claim under or by reason of the Bond Reso-
lutions or any covenant, condition or stipulation hereof,
and all covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in
the Bond Resolutions contained by and on behalf of the City
shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Issuer,
the Trustee, AMBAC Indemnity, the Paying Agent, if any, and
the registered owners of the Series 1988 Bonds.
(xiii) In the event that the principal and/or interest due on the
Series 1988 Bonds shall be paid by AMBAC Indemnity pursuant
to the Municipal Bond Insurance Policy, the Series 1988
Bonds shall remain Outstanding for all purposes, not be de-
feased or otherwise satisfied and not be considered paid by
the Issuer, and the assignment and pledge of the Pledged
Revenues and Pledged Funds and all covenants, agreements
and other obligations of the Issuer to the registered
owners shall continue to exist and shall run to the benefit
of AMBAC Indemnity, and AMBAC Indemnity shall be subrogated
to the rights of such registered owners.

- 3 -
01/708/MIA18001-0

(g) The Bank shall not be required to take notice, or be deemed
to have notice, of any default under any of the
Instruments, except as expressly provided therein, and

any of the payments to the Bank required to be made by any
of the Instruments, unless the Bank shall be specifically
notified in writing of such default by the Issuer or by the
registered owners of at least twenty-five percent (25%) in
aggregate principal amount of all Bonds then outstanding
and all notices or other instruments required by the
Instruments to be delivered to the Bank must, in order to

office of the Bank, and in the absence of such notice so
delivered the Bank may conclusively assume there is no
default except as aforesaid.
(h) The Bank shall not be required to give any bond or surety
in respect of the execution of its powers, duties and
obligations arising under the Instruments; provided,
however, that this provision shall not be construed as a
waiver of any protection provided to the Issuer under any
Bond or surety for the performance by the Bank of its
fiduciary duties, generally.
(i) Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in the Instruments
contained, the Bank shall have the right, but shall not be
required, to demand, in respect of the authentication of
the Series 1984 Bonds or of the Bonds or any action
whatsoever within the purview of the Instruments, any
certificates, opinions, appraisals or other information or
action by the Issuer, its City Commission or officials or
evidence thereof, in addition to that required by the
Instruments as a condition of such action by the Bank,
deemed desirable by the Bank for the purpose of
- 4 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
establishing the right of the Issuer to the authentication
of any of the Series 1984 Bonds or any of the Bonds or the
taking of any other action by the Bank within the purview
of the Instruments.
(j ) Before taking any action under any of the Instruments,
which exposes the Bank to any liability or risk of loss or
which requires an expenditure by the Bank of its own funds,
the Bank may require that a satisfactory indemnity bond be
furnished it for the reimbursement of all expenses to which
it may be put and to protect it against all liability,
except liability which is adjudicated to have resulted from
the Bank's own negligence or willful default in connection
with any action so taken.
(k) All moneys received by the Bank shall, until used or
applied as provided in the respective Instruments, be held
in trust for the purposes for which they were received.
Except as provided in the respective Instruments, the Bank
shall not be under any duty to invest any moneys received
by it under the respective Instruments and the Bank shall
not be under any liability for interest on any moneys
received by it under the respective Instruments.

Indemnity Corporation, a Wisconsin domiciled stock insurance
company ("AMBAC Indemnity") , insuring the payment when due of

Policy") is in effect, and AMBAC Indemnity is not in default
with respect to the timely performance of all of its obligations
thereunder, the Issuer or the Bank, as appropriate, shall
furnish to AMBAC Indemnity:
(a) As soon as practicable after the receipt thereof, a copy of
the annual audited financial statements of the Issuer and a
copy of any audit report relating thereto;
(b) A copy of any notice to be given to the registered owners
of the Bonds and any certificate given pursuant to the 1988
Resolutions or this Agreement relating to the security for
the Bonds; and

request.
The Bank shall notify AMBAC Indemnity of any failure of the Issuer to
provide any such relevant notices, certificates or information.

finances and accounts of the Issuer or any information AMBAC Indemnity may
- 5 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
reasonably request regarding the security for the Bonds with appropriate
officers of the Issuer. The Issuer will permit AMBAC Indemnity to have access
to the Parking System (as defined in the 1988 Resolutions) and the Bank and
the Issuer, as appropriate, will permit AMBAC Indemnity to have access to and
to make copies of all books and records relating to the Bonds at any
reasonable time.
AMBAC Indemnity shall have the right to direct an accounting at the
Issuer's expense, and the Issuer's failure to comply with such direction
within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of the direction from
AMBAC Indemnity shall be deemed a default hereunder; provided, however, that
if compliance cannot occur within such period, then such period shall be
extended (so long as during such thirty (30) day period as the Issuer has
taken reasonable action directed toward achieving compliance and is diligently
seeking to carefully) , but only if such extension would not materially
adversely affect the interests of any registered owner of the Bonds.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Instruments, the Bank
shall immediately notify AMBAC Indemnity:
(i) If at any time there are insufficient moneys to make any pay-
ments of principal or interest on the Bonds;
(ii) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under the 1988
Resolution; or
(iii) Upon any breach by the Issuer of its obligations under this
Agreement.
4. As long as the Insurance Policy shall be in full force and
effect, the Issuer and the Bank, in its capacity as Trustee and
Paying Agent for the Bonds, agrees to comply with the following
provisions:
(a) If five (5) days prior to an Interest Payment Date the Bank
determines that there will be insufficient moneys in the
Pledged Funds, which are available for such purpose, to pay
the principal of or interest on the Bonds on any date on
which such principal or interest is due, the Bank shall so
notify AMBAC Indemnity. Such notice shall specify the date
such payment is due, the amount of the anticipated
deficiency, the Bonds to which such deficiency is
applicable and whether such Bonds will be deficient as to
principal or interest, or both. If the Bank has not so
notified AMBAC Indemnity five (5) days prior to the date
such payment is due, AMBAC Indemnity shall, subject to the
terms of the Insurance Policy, make payments of principal
or interest due on the Bonds on or before the fifth (5th)
business day next following the date on which AMBAC
- 6 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
Indemnity shall have received notice of nonpayment from the
Bank.
(b) The Bank shall, after giving notice to AMBAC Indemnity as
provided in (a) above, make available to AMBAC Indemnity
and, at AMBAC Indemnity's direction, to the United States
Trust Company of New York, as insurance trustee for AMBAC
Indemnity or any successor insurance trustee (the
"Insurance Trustee") , the registration books of the Issuer
maintained by the Bank as Registrar for the Bonds and all
records relating to the Funds and Accounts held by the Bank
under the 1988 Resolutions.
(c) The Bank shall provide AMBAC Indemnity and the Insurance
Trustee with a list of registered owners of Bonds who are
entitled to receive principal or interest payments from
AMBAC Indemnity under the terms of the Insurance Policy,
and shall make arrangements with the Insurance Trustee:
(i) To mail checks or drafts to the registered owners of
Bonds entitled to receive full or partial interest
payments from AMBAC Indemnity; and
(ii) To pay the principal of any Bonds which are surrend-
ered to the Insurance Trustee by the registered owners
of Bonds who are entitled to receive full or partial
principal payments from AMBAC Indemnity.
(d) The Bank shall, at the time it provides notice to AMBAC
Indemnity pursuant to (a) above, notify registered owners
of Bonds entitled to receive the payment of principal or
interest thereon from AMBAC Indemnity (i) as to the fact of
such entitlement, (ii) that AMBAC Indemnity will remit to
them all or a part of the interest payments next coming due
upon proof of bondholder entitlement to interest payments
and delivery to the Insurance Trustee, satisfactory to
AMBAC Indemnity, of an appropriate assignment of the
registered owner's right to payment, ( iii) that should they
be entitled to receive full payment of principal from AMBAC
Indemnity, they must surrender their Bonds (along with an
appropriate instrument of assignment satisfactory to AMBAC
Indemnity to permit ownership of such Bonds to be
registered in the name of AMBAC Indemnity) for payment to
the Insurance Trustee, and not the Trustee or Paying Agent,
if any, and (iv) that should they be entitled to receive
partial payment of Principal from AMBAC Indemnity, they
must surrender their Bonds for payment thereon first to the
Bank, as Paying Agent, which shall note on such Bonds the
portion of the principal paid by the Bank, or Paying Agent,
and then, along with an appropriate instrument of
- 7 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
assignment, satisfactory to AMBAC Indemnity, to the
Insurance Trustee, which will then pay the unpaid portion
of such principal.
(e) In the event that the Bank has notice that any payment made
by, or on behalf of, the Issuer of principal of or interest
on a Bond (which has become due for payment) , has been
deemed a "preferential transfer" and has been recoverable
from such registered owner, pursuant to the United States
Bankruptcy Code, by a trustee in bankruptcy in accordance
with the final, non-appealable order of a court having
competent jurisdiction, the Bank shall, at the time AMBAC
Indemnity is notified pursuant to (a) above, notify such
registered owner that in the event that such registered
owner's payment is so recovered, such registered owner will
be entitled to payment from AMBAC Indemnity, to the extent
of such recovery, if sufficient funds are not otherwise
available to make such payment, and the Bank shall furnish
to AMBAC Indemnity its records evidencing the payments of
principal of and interest on the Bonds which have been made
by the Bank, as Paying Agent, and which are subsequently
recovered from registered owners and the dates on which
such payments were made.
(f) In addition to those rights granted AMBAC Indemnity under
the 1988 Resolutions and this Agreement, AMBAC Indemnity
shall, to the extent it makes payment of principal of or
interest on the Bonds, become subrogated to the rights of
the recipients of such payments in accordance with the
terms of the Insurance Policy and the documents relating
thereto, and to evidence such subrogation ( i) in the case
of subrogation as to claims for past due interest, the Bank
shall note AMBAC Indemnity's rights as subrogee on the
registration books of the Issuer maintained by the Bank, as
Registrar, upon receipt from AMBAC Indemnity of proof of
the payment of interest thereon to the registered owners of
such Bonds, and (ii) in the case of subrogation as to
claims for past due principal, the Bank, as Registrar,
shall note AMBAC Indemnity's rights as subrogee on the
registration books of the Issuer maintained by the Bank, as
Registrar, upon surrender of such Bonds by the registered
owners thereof; such notations shall indicate the amount of
such payment to which AMBAC Indemnity 's right of
subrogation applies and the Bank's records shall include
proof of the payment of any such principal or interest.
5. The Bank shall be entitled to payment or reimbursement for its
reasonable fees for its ordinary services rendered under the
Instruments and all advances, counsel fees and other ordinary
expenses reasonably and necessarily made or incurred by the Bank
- 8 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
in connection with such ordinary services. The amount of such
fees shall be established by the Bank's standard fee schedule,
unless otherwise provided by written agreement between the
Issuer and the Bank. In the event that it shall become
necessary for the Bank to perform extraordinary services, it
shall be entitled to reasonable extra compensation therefor, and
to reimbursement for its reasonable and extraordinary expenses
incurred in connection therewith; provided that, if such
extraordinary services or extraordinary expenses are occasioned
by the negligence or misconduct of the Bank, it shall not be
entitled to compensation or reimbursement therefor.
6. Any corporation or association into which the Bank may be
converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to
which it may sell or transfer its corporate trust business and
assets as a whole, or substantially as a whole, or any
corporation or association resulting from any such conversion,
sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which it is a party,
ipso facto, shall be and become successor under the Instruments
and vested with all the fiduciary duties, powers, discretions,
immunities, privileges and all other matters as was its
predecessor, provided that such successor corporation or
association assumes in writing all the powers, duties and
obligations of the Bank under the Instruments.
7. The Bank and any successor corporation or association may at any
time resign its fiduciary position under all (but not less than
all) of the Instruments by giving thirty (30) days ' written
notice to the Issuer and by registered or certified mail to each
registered owner of the Bonds then outstanding, and such
resignation shall take effect at the end of such thirty (30)
days, or upon the earlier appointment by the Issuer of a
successor Fiduciary. Such notice to the Issuer may be served
personally or sent by registered mail. AMBAC Indemnity shall be
given prior written notice by the Bank or by any such successor
corporation or association of any resignation while the Bonds
are outstanding.
8. The Bank may be removed at any time, by an instrument or
concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Bank and to
the Issuer, and signed by the registered owners of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of Bonds then outstanding. The Bank
may be removed by an instrument in writing delivered to the Bank
by the Issuer. The Bank shall be removed by the Issuer at any
time at the request of AMBAC Indemnity while the Bonds are
outstanding.
9. In case the Bank shall resign or be removed, or be dissolved, or
shall be in course of dissolution or liquidation, or otherwise
become incapable of acting as a fiduciary under the Instruments
- 9 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
or in case it shall be taken under the control of any public
officer or officers, or of a receiver appointed by a court, the
Issuer shall promptly remove the bank and appoint a successor
fiduciary by giving written notice to the Bank and the Issuer
shall notify AMBAC Indemnity and shall notify the registered
owners of the Bonds by mailing written notice thereof to their
registered addresses as of the date of such removal.
10. If the Bank resigns or is removed and if the Issuer fails to
appoint a successor fiduciary within a reasonable time, the
registered owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Bonds then outstanding may make such appointment and shall
give written notice of such appointment to the Issuer and if
such registered owners fail to appoint a successor fiduciary,
AMBAC Indemnity shall appoint such successor fiduciary. Any
successor fiduciary which is appointed pursuant hereto shall be
a bank or trust company which is permitted by law to perform the
fiduciary duties imposed under the Instruments and if any of the
Bonds are Outstanding at the time of such appointment, only a
successor fiduciary which has been approved by AMBAC Indemnity
shall be appointed as such successor fiduciary. During such
time as any Bonds are outstanding, the removal of the Bank and
selection and appointment of any successor fiduciary shall
require the prior written consent of AMBAC Indemnity.
11. Every successor fiduciary appointed as herein provided shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor and also to
the Issuer and AMBAC Indemnity an instrument in writing
accepting such appointment and thereupon such successor, without
any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested
with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties
and obligations of its predecessor under the Instruments; but
such predecessor shall nevertheless, on the written request of
the Issuer, or of the successor fiduciary execute and deliver an
instrument transferring to such successor fiduciary all the
estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts of such
predecessor under the Instruments; and every predecessor
fiduciary shall deliver all moneys and investments held by it as
a fiduciary under the Instruments, together with copies of all
records relating to its duties as a fiduciary under the
Instruments, to its successor. Should any instrument in writing
from the Issuer be required by any such successor fiduciary for
more fully and certainly vesting in such successor the estates,
properties, rights, powers and trusts hereby vested (or intended
to be vested) in the predecessor, any and all such instruments
in writing shall, on the request of such successor, be executed,
acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer. The resignation of
any such fiduciary and the instrument or instruments removing
any such fiduciary and the instrument or instruments appointing
a successor fiduciary together with all other instruments
- 10 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
provided for in this Agreement shall be filed by the successor
fiduciary in each office where the Instruments shall have been
filed.
12. The resolutions, opinions, certificates and other instruments
provided for in the Instruments may be accepted by the Bank as
conclusive evidence of the facts and conclusions stated therein
and shall be full warrant, protection and authority to the Bank
for the performance by the Bank of its fiduciary powers, duties
and obligations under the Instruments.
13 . In the event of a change in the fiduciary under the Instruments,
the predecessor fiduciary, which has resigned or been removed,
shall cease to be fiduciary under the Instruments and the
successor shall become such fiduciary.
14. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the
1988 Resolutions, in determining whether the rights of the
registered owners of the Bonds will be adversely affected by any
action taken pursuant to the terms and provisions of the 1988
Resolutions or of this Agreement, the Bank, in its capacity as
Trustee under the 1988 Resolutions shall consider the effect on
the holders of the Bonds as if there were no Insurance Policy.
15. Any provision of the 1988 Resolutions or this Agreement
expressly recognizing or granting rights in or to AMBAC
Indemnity may not be amended in any manner which affects the
rights of AMBAC Indemnity under the 1988 Resolutions or this
Agreement without the prior written consent of AMBAC Indemnity.
AMBAC Indemnity shall be a "third-party beneficiary" of this
Agreement and shall be entitled to enforce the provisions hereof
so long as any of the Bonds are Outstanding.
16. The Issuer and the Bank hereby designate the Bank's principal
corporate trust office at One Southeast Financial Center, Miami,
Florida 33131 as:
(a) The designated office of the Paying Agent for the Bonds at
which Bonds may be surrendered for payment of principal and
premium, if any; and
(b) The designated office of the Registrar at which Bonds may
be surrendered for transfer, exchange or replacement.
17. This Trustee, Registrar and Paying Agent Agreement may be

original and all of which shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.

ESCROW DEPOSIT AGREEMENT
(FOR THE REFUNDED CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA
PARKING REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 1984)
THIS ESCROW DEPOSIT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") , dated as of January
, 1989, by and between the City of Miami Beach, Florida, a duly created
municipality of the State of Florida (the "Issuer") and Southeast Bank, N.A. ,
a national banking association duly organized and existing under the laws of
the United States of America having its principal corporate trust office at
One Southeast Financial Center, Miami, Florida 33131 , as Escrow Agent (the
"Escrow Agent") :
WITNESSET H:
WHEREAS, the Issuer has, pursuant to Ordinance No. 732-84 and
Resolution No. 84-17654 (the "1984 Resolution") , heretofore issued its
$6,000,000 Parking Revenue Bonds, Series 1984 (the "Series 1984 Bonds") of
which the Series 1984 Bonds maturing on September 1 in the years 1989 through
1999, both inclusive, are presently Outstanding; and
WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent is now serving as Trustee, Registrar and
Paying Agent for the Series 1984 Bonds; and
WHEREAS, the Issuer has determined that it is in the best interest of
the Issuer to refund all of the Outstanding Series 1984 Bonds (maturing on
September 1 in the years 1989 to 1999, both inclusive) hereinafter called the
"Refunded Bonds"; and
WHEREAS, the Issuer, pursuant to Resolutions No. and
(said Resolutions being collectively called the "Bond Legislation") has, on
the date hereof, issued $ in aggregate principal amount of its
Parking Revenue Bonds, Series 1988 (the "Refunding Bonds") for the purpose,
among other purposes, of providing funds for the advance refunding of all of
the Refunded Bonds; any capitalized terms which are used herein, but not
defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Bond
Legislation; and
WHEREAS, the principal of the Refunded Bonds which mature on
September 1 of the years 1989 through 1994, both inclusive, shall be paid at
maturity, all Refunded Bonds maturing on or after September 1 , 1995, are to be
redeemed on September 1, 1994, at a redemption price of 103% of their
principal amount, and interest on the Refunded Bonds shall be paid on March 1
and September 1 in the years 1989 through 1994, both inclusive, in the usual
manner; the amounts needed to pay all principal and interest payable on the
Refunded Bonds becoming due on and before September 1 , 1994 and to pay the
redemption price of the Refunded Bonds which are to be redeemed on
September 1, 1994, are set forth in a letter (the "Verification Report" ) dated
the date hereof, prepared by Touche Ross & Co. ; and
WHEREAS, this Escrow Deposit Agreement is being entered into
contemporaneously with the delivery of the Refunding Bonds in order to comply
with the procedures required by the 1984 Resolution for the advance refunding,
defeasance and discharge of the Refunded Bonds and arrangements have been
made for the purchase of the Initial Federal Securities described in Section 2
hereof for the Escrow Fund. The term "Federal Securities" shall mean direct
obligations of the United States of America and obligations the timely
payment of principal thereof and interest thereon is fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by the United States of America which are non-callable (except at
the option of the holder) and includes "SLGs" (United States Treasury
Certificates, Notes and Bonds, State and Local Government Series) and "Open
Market Securities" (Federal Securities other than SLGS) , including "STRIPS"
(direct obligations of the United States Treasury which have been stripped by
the Treasury itself) . The Verification Report shows that cash to be derived
by the Escrow Agent from the maturing principal and interest on the Initial
Federal Securities (as hereafter defined) which are to be deposited in the
Escrow Fund (as hereafter defined) and any initial cash balance in the Escrow
Fund will provide sufficient moneys to enable the Escrow Agent to pay, when
due, each scheduled payment of the principal and interest on all of the
Refunded Bonds as the same become due on and prior to September 1 , 1994, and
to pay the redemption price of all of the Refunded Bonds to be redeemed on
September 1, 1994 (collectively called "Debt Service") , as required to meet
the Issuer's obligations under the Refunded Bonds.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
SECTION 1 . Establishment of Escrow Fund. There is hereby created
and established a special, segregated and irrevocable trust fund designated
the "City of Miami Beach, Florida, Parking Revenue Bonds, Series 1984 Debt
Service Payment Escrow Fund" (herein called the "Escrow Fund") to be held by
the Escrow Agent for the benefit of the Holders of the Refunded Bonds.
SECTION 2. Deposit to Escrow Fund. Concurrently with the execution
of this Agreement the sum of: $ has been deposited in the Escrow
Fund. Said sum consists of: $ of the proceeds of the Refunding
Bonds; $ theretofore in the Reserve Account for the Refunded
Bonds under the 1984 Resolution; and $ theretofore held in the
Bond and Interest Fund for the Refunded Bonds under the 1984 Resolution. Of
said sum: $ thereof derived from amounts theretofore held in the
Reserve Account for the Refunded Bonds has been used to purchase (at the
market price thereof) the noncallable Open Market Securities described in the
Verification Report; $ thereof derived from the proceeds of the
Refunding Bonds and amounts derived from the Bond and Interest Fund for the
Refunded Bonds has been used to purchase the SLGs described in the
Verification Report; and $ thereof derived from the Bond and
Interest Fund or the proceeds of the Refunding Bonds, shall be held in the
Escrow Fund in cash as the initial cash balance thereof. The Open Market
Securities and SLGs initially deposited in the Escrow Fund are herein called
the "Initial Federal Securities. "
- 2 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
SECTION 3 . Sufficiency of Escrow Fund. As used herein, the term
"Acquired Obligations" shall mean the Federal Securities (whether at any time
consisting of Initial Federal Securities or substituted Federal Securities as
defined in Section 4 hereof or both) and Open Market Securities in which the
initial cash balance and proceeds of which are invested or are reinvested as
provided in Section 6 hereof. The Verification Report shows that the interest
and the principal amounts maturing on the Initial Federal Securities from time
to time in accordance with their terms and the cash to be on deposit in the
Escrow Fund from time to time are sufficient so that moneys will be available
to the Escrow Agent at the time and in the amounts required to make each
payment of Debt Service on the Refunded Bonds Outstanding from time to time to
and including September 1, 1994. If, for any reason, at any time, the funds
on hand in the Escrow Fund shall be insufficient to make payments of Debt
Service as they become due and payable, the Issuer shall timely deposit in the
Escrow Fund, from the Surplus Fund held under the Bond Legislation or other
legally available funds of the Issuer, such additional amounts as may be
required to pay in full the Debt Service on the Refunded Bonds about to become
due and payable. Notice of such insufficiency shall be given by the Escrow
Agent to the Issuer as promptly as possible after the Escrow Agent determines
that there will be an insufficiency, but the Escrow Agent shall not be
responsible for the Issuer's failure to make any deposits to eliminate such
insufficiency.
SECTION 4. Substitution. The Escrow Agent may, at the written
direction of the Issuer at any time or times, substitute one or more other
Federal Securities in lieu of one or more of the Initial Federal Securities
described in the Verification Report, or in lieu of Federal Securities
theretofore substituted pursuant to this Section 4; provided that, prior to
any such substitution, the Escrow Agent shall have received:
(a) A letter supplementing the Verification Report (a "Supplemental
Verification Report") prepared by a firm of nationally-recognized independent
certified public accountants:
(i) To the effect that the cash on deposit in the Escrow Fund and
the cash to be derived from the Acquired Obligations to be on
deposit in the Escrow Fund immediately following such
substitution and any required reinvestments of cash in SLGs
having a zero yield set forth in said Supplemental Verification
Report will not change the conclusions of the Verification
Report as to the satisfaction of the requirements of the 1984
Resolution for defeasance and discharge of the Refunded Bonds;
and
(ii) Recalculating the yield on the Acquired Obligations to take into
account such substitution and any necessary reinvestments of
cash in SLGs having a zero yield required by the Supplemental
Verification Report; and
- 3 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
(b) An opinion of nationally-recognized Bond Counsel that (I) such
substitution is permissible hereunder, (II) that (based on said Supplemental
Verification Report as to sufficiency) the substitution will not adversely
affect the defeasance of the Refunded Bonds, and (III) that (based on said
Verification Report as to the recalculated yield) the substitution will not
adversely affect the status of interest on the Refunding Bonds or on the
Refunded Bonds under the then applicable federal income tax laws.
SECTION 5. Notices.
(a) The Issuer has, by resolution, irrevocably instructed the
Registrar for the Refunded Bonds to give notice of redemption of the Refunded
Bonds to be redeemed on September 1 , 1994, not less than thirty (30) days
prior to said redemption date pursuant to the 1984 Resolution.
(b) Failure of the Registrar for the Refunded Bonds to give such
notice or any defect in such notice shall not in any manner alter the duties
of the Escrow Agent hereunder.
SECTION 6. Use of Escrow Fund.
(a) The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Fund (and the uninvested
cash and Acquired Obligations therein) at all times as a special and separate
trust fund for the benefit of the Holders of the Refunded Bonds wholly
segregated from other funds and securities on deposit with it, shall never
commingle the Escrow Fund with other funds or securities owned or held by it,
and shall never at any time use, loan, or borrow the same in any way other
than as provided in this Agreement. All Acquired Obligations (other than
book-entry obligations) in the Escrow Fund shall be registered in the name of
the Escrow Agent in its fiduciary capacity hereunder and physically held by
the Escrow Agent, and book-entry Acquired Obligations shall be registered in
the name of the Escrow Agent in its fiduciary capacity hereunder. A special
account for the Escrow Fund evidencing such facts shall at all times be
maintained on the books of the Escrow Agent.
(b) The Escrow Agent agrees that it will not surrender or otherwise
attempt to redeem or otherwise negotiate the Acquired Obligations in the
Escrow Fund, except as they shall come due (or except to make substitutions
permitted by Section 4 hereof) .
(c) The Escrow Agent shall from time to time collect the maturing
principal and interest of the Acquired Obligations as the same become due and
shall credit the cash proceeds so received to the Escrow Fund. The principal
of and interest on the Acquired Obligations mature so as to provide, on the
date on which Debt Service on the Refunded Bonds is due, an amount which, when
added to any uninvested cash in the Escrow Fund on such date, will be
sufficient to pay the Debt Service then falling due.
(d) On or immediately prior to each date when Debt Service on the
Refunded Bonds is due and payable, the Escrow Agent shall transfer from the
- 4 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
Escrow Fund to a payment account held by the Paying Agent for the Refunded
Bonds, moneys in the amounts required to pay in full the Debt Service on the
Refunded Bonds then becoming due and payable. The Escrow Agent agrees to so
apply all amounts so received by it as provided herein.
(e) Any cash proceeds of the SLGs from time to time on deposit in
the Escrow Fund which are not immediately needed to pay Debt Service on the
Refunded Bonds (as shown on the Verification Report as the same may have been
supplemented by a Supplemental Verification Report pursuant to Section 4
hereof) shall, to the extent permitted by law and as indicated on the
Verification Report (as the same may have been supplemented by a Supplemental
Verification Report pursuant to Section 4 hereof) be reinvested in SLGs having
a zero yield which mature on the date the proceeds thereof are needed to pay
Debt Service on the Refunded Bonds (as shown on the Verification Report as the
same may have been supplemented by a Supplemental Verification Report pursuant
to Section 4 hereof) .
(f) Any of the initial cash balance and cash proceeds of any Open
Market Securities from time to time on deposit in the Escrow Fund which is not
immediately needed to pay debt service on the Refunded Bonds (as shown on the
Verification Report as the same may have been supplemented by a Supplemental
Verification Report pursuant to Section 4 hereof) shall , to the extent
reasonably possible and permitted by law be reinvested in SLGs having a zero
yield which mature on the date the proceeds thereof are needed to pay debt
service on the Refunded Bonds or in Open Market Securities which mature on the
Business Day prior to the date the proceeds thereof are needed to pay Debt
Service on the Refunded Bonds (as shown on the Verification Report as the same
may have been supplemented by a Supplemental Verification Report pursuant to
Section 4 hereof) , provided; however, that:
(i) The yield on any such Open Market Securities shall not be
materially higher (1/8 of 1%) than the yield specified in the
Tax Compliance Certificate for the Refunding Bonds as being the
yield on the Series 1984 Bonds;
(ii) The aggregate income to be derived from all such reinvestments
in Open Market Securities pursuant to this Section 2(f) shall
not exceed an amount equal to (A) 1% of the "Original Proceeds"
(as defined in the Tax Compliance Certificate provided in
connection with the issuance of the Refunding Bonds) of the
Refunding Bonds, reduced by (B) the $ ending
cash balance of the Escrow Fund as shown on the Verification
Report) ; and
(iii) The purchase of such Open Market Securities shall be conducted
so as not to violate the "Market Price Rule" and so as not to
constitute a "prohibited payment" as said terms are used under
Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code") .
- 5 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
(g) Any cash proceeds of any SLGs or Open Market Securities or any
other cash which is not either
(i) immediately expended upon receipt to pay
Debt Service on the Refunded Bonds or ( ii) immediately reinvested as provided
in subsections (e) or (f) of this Section shall be held by the Escrow Agent as
uninvested cash.
(h) The Escrow Agent shall establish such internal procedures as may
be necessary to assure (i) that applications for SLGs are filed at the time
required to permit money which is to be reinvested in SLGs to be so reinvested
and ( ii) that amounts which are to be invested in Open Market Securities will
be reinvested in the manner and at the time required.
(i) The Escrow Fund shall continue in effect until September 1 ,
1994, at which time all of the Refunded Bonds then Outstanding will be
redeemed. Moneys needed for the payment of all debt service thereon on that
date shall be transferred to the Paying Agent for the Refunded Bonds, and used
for payment of all Debt Service thereon. The Escrow Agent shall forthwith
sell or redeem all Acquired Obligations, if any, then remaining in the Escrow
Fund, and shall remit the proceeds thereof, together with all other money, if
any, then remaining in the Escrow Fund (the "Excess Amount") to the Issuer.
(j ) If at any time, as a result of any substitution permitted hereby
or otherwise, a Supplemental Verification Report shows that any cash on
deposit in the Escrow Fund will not be needed to pay Debt Service on the
Refunded Bonds, such unneeded cash shall be an "Excess Amount, " which shall be
paid to the Issuer at the written request of the Issuer, but only if the
Issuer provides the Escrow Agent with written approval of bond counsel for the
Refunding Bonds.
SECTION 7. Pledge of Escrow Fund. The trust and fiduciary
relationship created by this Agreement is irrevocable and intended for the
benefit of the Persons who are the Holders, from time to time, of the Refunded
Bonds. The Acquired Obligations and any uninvested cash in the Escrow Fund

Debt Service on the Refunded Bonds. The lien of such pledge shall be valid
and binding against all Persons having claims of any kind against (i) the
Issuer or (ii) the Escrow Agent; Acquired Obligations and uninvested cash
shall be used solely for the purposes stated herein. This Agreement and the
lien of such pledge shall remain in full force and effect until the terms of
this Agreement have been satisfied and the Acquired Obligations and uninvested
cash in the Escrow Fund have been applied as contemplated herein. In the
event of the Escrow Agent 's failure to account for the Acquired Obligations
and cash received by it under this Agreement, such Acquired Obligations and
cash shall remain the property of the Escrow Fund; the Holders of the Refunded
Bonds, as beneficiaries of the trust hereby created, shall have the first lien
upon and first priority security interest in such Acquired Obligations and
uninvested cash. Neither the Acquired Obligations nor the cash held by the
Escrow Agent under this Agreement shall be considered as a banking deposit by
the Issuer and the Issuer shall have no right or title with respect thereto
except to receive any Excess Amount pursuant to Section 6(i) and (j ) , hereof.

SECTION 9. Duties and Rights of Escrow Agent.
(a) The Escrow Agent shall receive, hold, invest, reinvest and
disburse the Escrow Fund as herein provided, as a fiduciary for the benefit of
the Holders of the Refunded Bonds. The duty of the Escrow Agent hereunder
shall only be to the Issuer and the Holders of the Refunded Bonds. Neither
the Issuer nor the Escrow Agent shall assign or attempt to assign or transfer
their interest hereunder or any part hereof except that the Escrow Agent shall
transfer its interest hereunder to any successor Escrow Agent which may
replace it as provided herein and the Issuer, if dissolved, shall transfer its
interest hereunder to any governmental body succeeding to its rights and
liabilities. Any assignment or attempted assignment in conflict with this
Agreement shall be null, void and without effect. The Escrow Agent shall have
no responsibility to any Persons in connection herewith except those
specifically provided herein. The Escrow Agent is not a party to, nor is it
bound by, nor need it give consideration to, the terms or provisions of any
other agreement or undertaking in conflict herewith, and, in the
administration and use of the Escrow Fund, the Escrow Agent is to give
consideration only to the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Unless
otherwise specifically provided herein, the Escrow Agent has no duty to
determine or inquire into the happening or occurrence of any event or
contingency or the performance or failure of performance by the Issuer with
respect to arrangements or contracts between the Issuer and others. If,
however, the Escrow Agent is called upon by the terms of this Agreement to
determine the occurrence of any event or contingency, the Escrow Agent shall
be obligated, in making such determination, only to exercise reasonable care
and diligence. In determining the occurrence of any such event or
contingency, the Escrow Agent may request from the Issuer or any other person
such reasonable additional evidence as the Escrow Agent, in its discretion,
may deem necessary to determine any fact relating to the occurrence of such
event or contingency, and in this connection may inquire of and consult with
the Issuer at any time. The Escrow Agent, in its capacity as Escrow Agent,
shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for the recitals or
statements contained in the Refunding Bonds, the Refunded Bonds or any
- 7 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
proceedings taken or any other documents executed and delivered in connection
therewith.
(b) If at any time the Escrow Agent realizes that it has done any
act, taken any step or omitted to do any act or omitted to take any step
required hereby, it shall immediately so advise the Finance Director of the
Issuer by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing, setting forth the facts,
upon receipt of such notice, the Finance Director shall promptly seek advice
from Bond Counsel for the Refunding Bonds to determine whether any remedial
steps can be taken to correct the error in a manner which complies with the
requirements of the Code.
(c) This Agreement is between the Issuer and the Escrow Agent only
and, in connection therewith, the Escrow Agent is authorized to rely upon the
representations, both actual and implied, of the Issuer in connection with
this Agreement; the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any person in any
manner for such reliance. The Escrow Agent may act upon any written notice,
request, waiver, consent, certificate, receipt, authorization, power of
attorney, or other instrument or document which the Escrow Agent in good faith
believes to be genuine and to be what it purports to be. Whenever the Escrow
Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or
established by the Issuer, prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action
under this Agreement, such matter may be deemed to be conclusively established
by a certificate signed by the Mayor, Vice Mayor, City Manager, Finance
Director, City Clerk or Deputy Clerk of the Issuer and where such matter to be
proved or established involves a legal matter, such certification shall
certify that it is based upon an opinion rendered by the City Attorney, Bond
Counsel or other appropriate legal counsel.
(d) The Escrow Agent may consult with Bond Counsel for the Refunding
Bonds and an opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered, or omitted by the
Escrow Agent in good faith and without negligence and in accordance therewith
and not contrary to the express provisions of this Agreement.
(e) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any act
done or step taken or omitted by it or any mistake of fact or law or for
anything which it may do or refrain from doing, except for its own misconduct
or negligence or its default or failure in the performance of any obligation
imposed upon it hereunder.
SECTION 10. Fees and Expenses.
(a) The Issuer shall pay to the Escrow Agent its fees for its
services as Escrow Agent hereunder and shall reimburse it for its expenses
(including the cost of giving notices hereunder) incurred in connection with
such services, at such rates and at such times as provided by separate
agreement between the Issuer and the Escrow Agent or, if no separate agreement
is in effect, at such rates and times as provided by the Escrow Agent 's
Standard Fee Schedule.
- 8 -
01/708/MIA18001-0
(b) The fees and expenses payable by the Issuer to the Escrow Agent
under subsection (a) of this Section 10 or under any other agreement or
otherwise shall not be paid from the Escrow Fund. The Escrow Agent shall have
no lien on the Escrow Fund or any funds held by it as Paying Agent for the
payment of its fees or expenses or otherwise and hereby expressly waives for
itself and its successors hereunder any rights of set-off against the Escrow
Fund. The failure of the Issuer to pay (or to pay on a timely basis) such
fees or expenses shall not excuse the Escrow Agent from the performance of its
duties hereunder; but nothing herein shall be interpreted as prohibiting the
Escrow Agent from enforcing its rights to collect its proper fees and expenses
from the Issuer.
SECTION 11 . Removal, Resignation, Appointment of Successors. The
Issuer may remove the Escrow Agent and appoint a successor Escrow Agent (which
shall have agreed to serve as Successor Escrow Agent hereunder) by written
notice to the Paying Agent. The Escrow Agent may resign on thirty (30) days '
written notice to the Issuer. Upon receipt of such notice, the Issuer shall
promptly appoint a Successor Escrow Agent (which shall have agreed to serve
as Successor Escrow Agent hereunder) . If within thirty (30) days after
receipt of notice of the Escrow Agent 's resignation, the Issuer shall fail to
appoint a successor Escrow Agent which has accepted such appointment, then the
Escrow Agent shall be entitled to petition a court of competent jurisdiction
to enforce such obligation. Any Successor Escrow Agent shall be a corporate
fiduciary authorized to exercise trust powers in the State of Florida. The
Escrow Agent shall continue to serve as Escrow Agent until such Successor
Escrow Agent has been appointed and has accepted its appointment. If the
Escrow Agent is removed or shall resign, it shall promptly deliver to the
Successor Escrow Agent (1) all Acquired Obligations and uninvested cash held
by it hereunder, and (2) copies of all books and records relating to the
activities of the Escrow Agent, whereupon it shall be discharged from its
obligations hereunder.
SECTION 12. Arbitrage Matters. The Issuer and Escrow Agent have
received a Verification Report verifying the yield on the Refunding Bonds and
the yield on the SLGs and Open Market Securities specified therein, which
Verification Report shows that the yield on said SLGs is not higher than the
yield on the Refunding Bonds (taking into account applicable "transferred
proceeds" adjustments, if any) , and that the yield on said Open Market
Securities is not materially higher (1/8 of 1%) than the yield on the issue of
which the Refunded Bonds are a part (as set forth in the Verification Report
for such issue) .
SECTION 13. Notices to Issuer and Escrow Agent. Any notice, authori-
zation, request, or demand required or permitted to be given hereunder to the

Parking Revenue Bonds , Series 1988
Year Principal Interest Total
THE PARKING SYSTEM
The System includes all Automobile Parking Facilities of the
City other than Excluded Facilities . At the time of issuance of
the 1988 Bonds, one parking lot located at the south end of the
City (with respect to which the City is not permitted to assess
parking fees) constitutes the sole Excluded Facility. See
APPENDIX D - "Summary of Certain Provisions of the Resolution"
for provisions relating to Excluded Facilities , including the
ability of the City to designate Automobile Parking Facilities as
additional Excluded Facilities .
As of September 1 , 1988 the System consisted of 12 , 622
parking spaces . Of this total, 4 , 956 were metered spaces on
streets and in off-street lots and 7, 666 were metered spaces
contained in decks and garages . As of October 1 , 1988 the City
added 661 spaces adjacent to the Convention Center ( the
"Preferred Parking Lot" ) to the System. These spaces were pre-
viously excluded from the System.
For a detailed description of the System, recommended
improvements and System additions, SEE APPENDIX A - "Consulting
Engineers ' Study" as prepared. bynthe1\Consulting Engineer5N
Organization
Commencing October 1 , 1988, the System became a separate
department of the City headed by a Parking System Director . The
- 17 -
Parking System is presently staffed by 44 budgeted positions
organized into six sections. These sections and the corres-
ponding number of employees are: A Administration 6 ;
Finance/Reporting 4 ; Enforcement 16 ; Meter Repairs 3 ; Maintenance
ⅈ and LandscagLag 5 . , Prior to October 1, 1988, the City ' s
Finance Department was responsible for the revenue collections of
the Parking System and the City ' s Police Department had
esponsibility for monitoring the parking enforcement efforts .
(The organization and staffing included in the Consulting
ngineers ' Study corresponds to the period preceding October 1 ,
1988 .
Operations
Parking meters are the main collection devices and the major
portion of revenues are received from these meter operations . In
addition, monthly, semi-annual and annual parking permits enable
permit holders with identification emblems to park within desig-
nated off-street parking locations . A limited number of spaces
are also leased to private organizations at the rates set forth
below, when such an arrangement is practical from a financial and
operating standpoint .
Meter collections are made five days a week by a private
contractor retained by the City. The majority of the meters are
collected weekly while the less active meters, representing a
small fraction of the total , are collected monthly. Collections
involve scheduling of routes, removing the meter coin boxes ,
which remain locked upon removal, and depositing contents ink a
larger locked container for transport . The containers are then
transferred to a secure central site, which offers the capability
of close supervision, before they are unlocked. The collections
are then procedurally counted and delivered to the City ' s Central
Cashier for forwarding to the System' s bank depository. In a
continuing effort to strengthen monetary controls, a modern,
automated coin counting operation has been established.
The standard hours of parking enforcement are from 8 : 00 a .m.
to 6 : 00 p.m. daily. ^ The administration is currently recommending
that enforcement hours be increased from 6 : 00 p.m. to midnight in
certain high traffic areas .
Parking Rates
The consulting Engineers have proposed certain increases to
ithe parking rates as set out below, which have been recommended
by the Finance Director to the City Commission and are expected
to go into effect this Fiscal Year . The table presented below
indicates the hourly rates and permit rates for parking in the
City, both current and proposed.

TAX EXEMPTION
In the opinion of Squire, Sanders & Dempsey, Bond Counsel ,
under existing law interest on the 1988 Bonds is excludable from
gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 (a)
of the Code, is not treated as an item of tax preference under
Section 57 of the Code for purposes of the alternative minimum
tax imposed on individuals and corporations . Further the 1988
Bonds are not "private activity bonds" as aefined in Section
141 (a) of the Code and are not "qualified tax-exempt obligations"
as defined in Section 265 (b) ( 3 ) of the code. The 1988 Bonds and
interest thereon are exempt from all taxation under the laws of
the State of Florida except estate taxes and taxes measured by
income which are imposed by Chapter 220 , Florida Statutes , as
- 20 -
amended on "corporations" , "banks" and "savings associations" as
such terms are defined in said Chapter 220 . An opinion to those
effects will be included in the approving legal opinion . Bond
Counsel will express no opinion regarding other federal income
tax consequences resulting from the receipt or accrual of
interest on the 1988 Bonds . The opinion of tax matters will be
based on and will assume the accuracy of certain representations
and certifications and compliance with certain covenants of the
City to be contained in the transcript of proceedings and which
are intended to evidence and assure the foregoing , including that
the 1988 Bonds are and will remain obligations the interest on
which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes . Bond Counsel will not independently verify the
accuracy of the certifications and representations made by the
City.
The Code prescribes a number of qualifications and condi-
tions for the interest on state and local government obligations
to be and remain excluded from gross income for federal income
tax purposes , some of which, including provisions for the rebate
by the City of certain investment earnings to the federal govern-
ment , require future or continued compliance after issuance of
the obligations in order for the interest to be and continue to
be excluded from the date of issuance . Noncompliance with these
requirements could cause the interest on the 1988 Bonds to be
included in gross income for federal income tax purposes and thus
to be subject to regular federal income taxes . The City cove-
nants to take such actions which may be required of it for the
interest on. the 1988 Bonds to be and remain excluded from gross
income for federal income tax purposes , and not to take any
actions which would adversely affect that exclusion.
Code provisions applicable to corporations (as defined for
federal income tax purposes ) , which impose an alternative minimum
tax on a portion of the excess of adjusted net book income
(adjusted current earnings and profits for taxable years
beginning after 1989 ) over other alternative minimum taxable
income , may subject a portion of the interest on the 1988 Bonds
earned by corporations to that corporate alternative minimum
tax . In addition, under the Code, interest on the 1988 Bonds may
be subject to an environmental tax imposed on certain corpora-
tions for taxable years which begin after 1986 and before 1992 , a
branch profits tax imposed on certain foreign corporations doing
business in the United States , and a tax imposed on excess net
passive income of certain S corporations .
Under the Code, the exclusion of interest from gross income
for federal income tax purposes can have certain adverse federal
income tax consequences on items of income or deductions for
certain taxpayers , including among them financial institutions ,
- 21 -
property and casualty insurance companies , recipients of Social
Security and Railroad Retirement benefits , and those that are
deemed to incur or continue indebtedness to acquire or carry tax-
exempt obligations . The applicability and extent of these or
other tax consequences will depend upon the particular tax status
or other items of income and expense of the owner of the 1988
Bonds. Bond Counsel expreEE,E3 no opinion regarding such conse-
quences .
From time to time, legislative proposals are pending in
Congress that would, if enacted, alter or amend one or more of
