SECTION 202. DESCRIPTION OF BONDS. Unless otherwise speci-
fied by the Agency in subsequent proceedings, any Bonds issued
pursuant to this Resolution shall be issued in fully registered
form and, if the Registrar issues notice of the availability of
exchanging registered Bonds for coupon Bonds, in coupon form. If
the Registrar receives an opinion of counsel of recognized stand-
ing in the field of law relating to municipal bonds to the effect
that the issuance of any of the Bonds in coupon form will not
adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for Federal
income tax purposes of the interest on any of the Bonds, the
Registrar may, at the written direction of the Agency, mail
notice to the registered owners of the Bonds of the availability
of exchanging registered Bonds and coupon Bonds. Registered
Bonds may then be exchanged for an equal aggregate pr incipal
amount of coupon Bonds of the same Series and maturity of any
authorized denomination and coupon Bonds may be exchanged for an
equal aggregate principal amount in the manner provided in this
Resolution.
Unless otherwise specified by the Agency in subsequent pro-
ceedings, the Bonds of a Series shall be dated as determined in a
Chairman's Certificate as to the Series 1989 Bonds and by sub-
sequent resolution of the Agency relating to the issuance of any
other Series of Bonds; shall bear interest, which may be fixed or
variable, from their date at a rate not exceeding the legal rate
per annum, with interest mailed to the registered Holder thereof
on each Interest Payment Date by the Paying Agent at the address
shown on the registration books of the Agency (held by the Regis-
trar) at the close of business on the 15th day of the calendar
month preceding an Interest Payment Date (in each case a "Regular
Record Date"), except for (i) Capital Appreciation Bonds which
shall bear interest as described under the defined term Accreted
Value, payable only upon redempt ion, acceleration or mat ur i ty
thereof and (ii) Capital Appreciation and Income Bonds which
shall bear interest as descr ibed under the def ined term Appre-
ciated Value, payable on the amount due at maturity but only from
and after the Interest Commencement Date; shall be let tered and
shall be numbered in such manner as determined in a Chairman's
Certificate as to the Series 1989 Bonds and by subsequent resolu-
tion of the Agency relating to the issuance of any other Series
of Bonds; shall be in the denominations determined in a Chair-
man's Certificate as to the Series 1989 Bonds and by subsequent
resolution of the Agency relating to the issuance of any other
Ser ies of Bonds; and shall mature on such dates, in such years
and in such amounts, as determined in a Chairman's Certificate as
to the Series 1989 Bonds and as provided for by subsequent
resolution of the Agency relating to any other Series of Bonds.
Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, any
interest not punctually paid on an Interest Payment Date shall
- 12 -
11
forthwi th cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the
Regular Record Date and may be paid to the registered Holder as
of the close of business on a special record date for the payment
of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Paying Agent,
notice of which shall be given not less than 10 days prior to
such special record date to the registered Holders.
The Bonds issued hereunder may be Serial Bonds or Term Bonds
and may be Variable Rate Bonds, Capital Appreciation Bonds,
Capital Appreciation and Income Bonds, Extendible Maturity Bonds,
Balloon Bonds, Interim Bonds, Put Bonds and such other types of
bonds as may be marketable from time to time, including, without
limitation, taxable Bonds and Bonds issued in book entry form, as
determined by subsequent proceedings of the Agency.
SECTION 203. REDEMPTION PROVISIONS. The Bonds of each
Series, other than the Series 1989 Bonds, may be subject to
redemption prior to maturity at such times, at such redemption
prices and upon such terms in addition to the terms contained in
this Resolution as may be determined by subsequent resolutions of
the Agency, which subsequent resolutions may contain redemption
notice provisions. The redemption provisions and the redemption
notice provisions for the Series 1989 Bonds shall be established
in the manner described in the second paragraph of Section 201 of
this Resolution.
Unless otherwise provided by subsequent proceedings, in
addition to any required redemption notice to Bondholders, the
Agency shall give notice of redemption for Bonds being redeemed
to registered securities depositories and to national information
services that disseminate redemption notices at least 2 business
days in advance of the notice mailed to holders of Bonds by send-
ing notice to deposi tor ies such as Deposi tory Trust Company of
New York, New York, Midwest Securities Trust Company of Chicago,
Illinois, Pacific Securities Depository Trust Company of San
Francisco, California, and Philadelphia Depository Trust Company
of Phi ladelphia, Pennsylvania and to national information
services such as Financial Information Inc.'s Daily Called Bond
Service, Interactive Data Corporation's Bond Service, Kenny
Information Service's Called Bond Service, Moody's Municipal and
Government News Reports and Standard and Poor's Called Bond
Record.
In addition, the Paying Agent shall publish notice of
redemption one time in The Bond Buyer of New York, New York or if
the Paying Agent believes that such publication is impractical or
unlikely to reach a substantial number of owners of the Bonds to
be redeemed, in some other financial newspaper or journal which
regularly carries notices of redemption of other obligations
similar to the Bonds, such publication to be made at least 30
days prior to the date fixed for redemption.
Notwithstanding the foregoing additional notice provisions,
failure to mail or publish such additional notices or any defect
therein shall not affect the validity of any redemption proceed-
ings as to which notice of such redemption has been properly
given to such Bondholder.
SECTION 204. EXECUTION OF BONDS. The Bonds shall be exe-
cuted in the name of the Agency by the Chairman, and the seal of
the Agency or a facsimile thereof shall be affixed thereto or
imprinted or reproduced thereon and attested by the Executive
Director, either manually or with their facsimile signatures. In
case anyone or more of the officers who shall have signed or
sealed any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the
Bonds so signed and sealed shall have been actually sold and
delivered, such Bonds may nevertheless be sold and delivered as
- 13 -
15
herein provided and may be issued as if the person who signed and
sealed such Bonds had not ceased to hold such office. Any Bond
may be signed and sealed on behalf of the Agency by such person
as at the actual time of the execution of such Bond shall hold
the proper office, although at the date of such Bonds such person
may not have held such office or may not have been so authorized.
The Bonds of each Series shall bear thereon a certificate of
authentication, in the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto, exe-
cuted manually by the Registrar. Only such Bonds as shall bear
thereon such certificate of authentication shall be entitled to
any right or benefit under this Resolution and no Bond shall be
valid or obligatory for any purpose until such certificate of
authentication shall have been duly executed by the Registrar.
Such certificate of the Registrar upon any Bond executed on
behalf of the Agency shall be conclusive evidence that the Bond
so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered under
this Resolution and that the Holder thereof is enti tIed to the
benefits of this Resolution.
If the Bonds of a Series have been validated, the validation
certificate on the back of each of the Bonds of such Series shall
be signed with the facsimile signatures of the present or any
future Chairman, and the Agency may adopt and use for that
purpose the facsimile signature of any person who shall have been
such Chairman at any time on or after the date of the Bonds,
notwithstanding that he may have ceased to be such Chairman at
the time when said Bonds shall be actually delivered.
SECTION 205. NEGOTIABILITY, REGISTRATION AND CANCELLA-
TION. At the option of the registered Holder thereof and upon
surrender thereof at the principal corporate trust office of the
Registrar with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to
the Registrar duly executed by the registered Holder or his duly
authorized attorney and upon payment by such Holder of any
charges which the Registrar or the Agency may make as provided in
this Section, the Bonds may be exchanged for Bonds of the same
aggregate principal amount of the same Series and maturity of any
other authorized denominations.
The Registrar shall keep books for the registration of Bonds
and for the registration of transfers of Bonds. The Bonds shall
be transferable by the Holder thereof in person or by his attor-
ney duly authorized in writing only upon the books of the Agency
kept by the Registrar and only upon surrender thereof together
with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Regis-
trar duly executed by the Holder or his duly author ized attor-
ney. Upon the transfer of any such Bond, the Agency shall cause
to be issued in the name of the transferee a new Bond or Bonds.
The Agency, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar
may deem and treat the person in whose name any Bond shall be
registered upon the books kept by the Registrar as the absolute
Holder of such Bond, whether such Bond shall be overdue or not,
for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bond as the
same becomes due and for all other purposes. All such payments
so made to any such Holder or upon his order shall be valid and
effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond
to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, and neither the Agency,
the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor the Registrar shall be affected
by any notice to the contrary.
In all cases in which the privilege of exchanging Bonds or
transferring Bonds is exercised, the Agency shall execute and the
Registrar shall authenticate and deliver Bonds in accordance with
the provisions of this Resolution. All Bonds surrendered in any
- 14 -
16
such exchanges or transfers shall forthwith be delivered to the
Registrar and cancelled by the Registrar in the manner provided
in this Section. There shall be no charge for any such exchange
or transfer of Bonds, but the Agency or the Registrar may require
the payment of a sum sufficient to pay any tax, fee or other
governmental charge required to be paid wi th respect to such
exchange or transfer. Neither the Agency nor the Registrar shall
be required (a) to transfer or exchange Bonds of any Series for a
period of 15 days next preceding any selection of Bonds of such
Series to be redeemed or thereafter until after the mailing of
any notice of redemption; or (b) to transfer or exchange any
Bonds of any Series called for redemption.
Except as may otherwise be provided with respect to Put
Bonds in the proceedings of the Agency providing for the issuance
thereof, all Bonds paid or redeemed, either at or before maturity
shall be delivered to the Trustee when such payment or redemption
is made, and such Bonds, together with all Bonds purchased by the
Agency, shall thereupon be promptly cancelled. Bonds so
cancelled may at any time be destroyed by the Trustee, who shall
execute a certification of destruction in duplicate by the signa-
ture of one of its author i zed off icers descr ibing the Bonds so
destroyed, and one executed certificate shall be filed with the
Agency and the other executed certificate shall be retained by
the Trustee.
SECTION 206. BONDS MUTILATED, DESTROYED, STOLEN OR LOST.
In case any Bond shall become mutilated, destroyed, stolen or
lost, the Agency may execute and the Registrar shall authenticate
and deliver a new Bond of like Series, date, maturity, denomina-
tion and interest rate as the Bond so mutilated, destroyed,
stolen or lost; provided that, in the case of any mutilated Bond,
such mutilated Bond shall first be surrendered to the Agency and,
in the case of any lost, stolen or destroyed Bond, there shall
first be furnished to the Agency and the Registrar evidence of
such loss, theft, or destruction satisfactory to the Agency and
the Registrar, together with indemnity satisfactory to them. In
the event any such Bond shall be about to mature or have matured
or have been called for redemption, instead of issuing a dupli-
cate Bond, the Agency may direct the Paying Agent to pay the same
wi thout surrender thereof. The Agency and Registrar may charge
the Holder of such Bonds their reasonable fees and expenses in
connection with this transaction. Any Bond surrendered for
replacement shall be cancelled in the same manner as provided in
Section 205 hereof.
Any such duplicate Bonds issued pursuant to this Section
shall constitute additional contractual obligations on the part
of the Agency, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Bonds
be at any time found by anyone, and such duplicate Bonds shall be
entitled to equal and proportionate benefits and rights as to
lien on and source and secur i ty for payment from the Pledged
Funds, with all other Bonds issued hereunder.
SECTION 207. PREPARATION OF DEFINITIVE BONDS; TEMPORARY
BONDS. Unless otherwise specified by the Agency in subsequent
proceedings, the definitive Bonds of each Series shall be litho-
graphed, printed or typewritten. Until the definitive Bonds are
prepared, the Chairman and Executive Director may execute and the
Registrar may authenticate, in the same manner as is provided in
Section 204, and deliver, in lieu of definitive Bonds, but
subject to the same provisions, limitations and conditions as the
definitive Bonds, one or more printed, lithographed or type-
wr i tten temporary fully registered Bonds, substantially of the
tenor of the definitive Bonds in lieu of which such temporary
Bond or Bonds are issued, in authorized denominations or any
whole multiples thereof, and with such omissions, insertions and
- 15 -
If,
variations as may be appropriate to such temporary Bonds. The
Agency at its own expense shall prepare and execute and, upon the
surrender at the corporate trust office of the Registrar of such
temporary Bonds for which no payment or only partial payment has
been provided, the Registrar shall authenticate and, without
charge to the Holder thereof, deliver in exchange therefor, at
the principal corporate trust office of the Registrar, definitive
Bonds of the same aggregate principal amount, Series and maturity
as the temporary Bonds surrendered. Until so exchanged, the
temporary Bonds shall in all respects be enti tled to the same
benefits and security as definitive Bonds issued pursuant to this
Resolution.
SECTION 208. FORM OF BONDS. The text of the Bonds shall be
of the tenor set forth in Exhibit B to this Resolution, with such
omissions, insertions and var iations as may be necessary and
desirable and authorized or permitted by this Resolution or a
Chairman's Certificate.

SECTION 304. COVENANTS OF THE AGENCY. The Agency hereby
covenants and agrees with the holders of any and all of the Bonds
issued pursuant to this Resolution as follows:
A. TAX COVENANTS.
(1) The Agency will not take any action or omit to
take any action, which action or omission, if reasonably expected
on the date of initial issuance and delivery of the Bonds, would
result in the failure to exclude interest on the Bonds from gross
income for Federal income tax purposes under Section l03(a) of
the Code. Particularly, the Agency will not take any action or
omit to take any action, which action or omission, if reasonably
expected on the date of the initial issuance and delivery of the
Bonds, would have caused any of the Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds"
within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code.
(2) The Agency
rebate covenants as provided
shall comply with the
in Section 304(E) hereof.
arbitrage
B. REDEVELOPMENT PLAN. The Agency will carry out the
purposes of the Redevelopment Plan within the Redevelopment Area
all in accordance with the Act and will take all such actions as
are required to carry out the full intent of the Redevelopment
Plan.
C. TRUST FUND. As soon as the same are received by the
Agency, all of the Trust Fund Revenues shall be forthwith
deposited into the Trust Fund. The Trust Fund shall constitute a
trust fund for the purposes provided in this Resolution, shall be
held by the Agency and shall be maintained separate and distinct
from all other funds of the Agency and used only for the purposes
and in the manner provided in this Resolution and the Act.
D. DISPOSITION OF TRUST FUND REVENUES. There is hereby
created and established as a sub-fund of the Trust Fund the
"Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency Sinking Fund" (hereinafter
referred to as the "Sinking Fundl!). There are also hereby cre-
- 19 -
~~_J
ated four (4) separate accounts in the Sinking Fund to be known
as the "Interest Account," the "Principal Account," the "Bond
Redemption Account" and the "Debt Service Reserve Account." The
Sinking Fund and the accounts therein shall be held and admin-
istered by the Trustee.
All Trust Fund Revenues received by the Agency from the City
and the County on deposit in the Trust Fund shall be disposed of
by the Agency only in the following manner:
(1) Trust Fund Revenues shall first be used, to the
full extent necessary, for deposit with the Trustee into the
Interest Account in the Sinking Fund, immediately upon
receipt of such Trust Fund Revenues, of such sums as shall
be sufficient to pay the interest becoming due on the Bonds
during such calendar year; provided, however, that such
deposit for interest shall not be required to be made into
the Interest Account to the extent that money on deposi t
therein is sufficient for such purpose and, provided fur-
ther, that in the event the Agency has issued addi tional
par i ty Var iable Rate Bonds pursuant to the provisions of
this Resolution, Trust Fund Revenues shall be deposited at
such other or additional times and amounts as necessary to
pay the interest becoming due on the Var iable Rate Bonds
during such calendar year, all in the manner provided in the
supplemental resolution author izing such additional par i ty
Variable Rate Bonds or in a resolution determining the
details of Variable Rate Bonds that have been authorized but
unissued.
The Trustee shall, on each Interest Payment Date,
transfer to the Paying Agent moneys in an amount equal to
the interest due on such Interest Payment Date or shall
advise the Paying Agent of the amount of any deficiency in
the amount so transferred so that the Paying Agent may give
appropriate notice required to provide for the payment of
such deficiency from any Reserve Account Insurance Policy or
Reserve Account Let ter of Credi t on deposi t in the Debt
Service Reserve Account.
(2) (a) Trust Fund Revenues shall next be used, to
the full extent necessary, for deposit with the Trustee into
the Principal Account in the Sinking Fund, immediately upon
receipt of such Trust Fund Revenues, of such sums as shall
be sufficient to pay the principal amount of Serial Bonds
which will mature during such calendar year; provided,
however, that such deposit for principal shall not be
required to be made into the Principal Account to the extent
that money on deposit therein is sufficient for such
purpose.
The Trustee shall, on the business day prior to each
principal payment date, transfer to the Paying Agent moneys
in an amount equal to the pr incipal due on such pr incipal
payment date or shall advise the Paying Agent of the amount
of any deficiency in the amount so transferred so that the
Paying Agent may give appropriate notice required to provide
for the payment of such deficiency from any Reserve Account
Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credi t on
deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account.
(b) Trust Fund Revenues shall next be used, to
the full extent necessary, for deposit with the Trustee into
the Bond Redemption Account in the Sinking Fund, immediately
upon receipt of such Trust Fund Revenues, of such Amortiza-
tion Requirements as may be required for the payment of the
- 20 -
,.)".~
A..-tt..,
Term Bonds payable from the Bond Redemption Account during
such calendar year.
The moneys in the Bond Redemption Account shall
be used solely for the purchase or redemption of the Term
Bonds payable therefrom. The Agency may at any time
purchase any of said Term Bonds at prices not greater than
the then redemption pr ice of said Term Bonds. If the Term
Bonds are not then redeemable, the Agency may purchase said
Term Bonds at prices not greater than the redemption price
of such Term Bonds on the next ensuing redemption date. The
Agency shall be mandatorily obligated to use any moneys in
the Bond Redemption Account for the redemption prior to
maturity of such Term Bonds at such times as the same are
subject to mandatory redemption. If, by the application of
moneys in the Bond Redemption Account, however, the Agency
shall purchase or call for redemption in any year Term Bonds
in excess of the Amortization Requirements for such year,
such excess of Term Bonds so purchased or redeemed shall be
credited in such manner and at such times as the Executive
Director shall determine over the remaining payment dates.
No distinction or preference shall exist in the
use of the moneys on deposit in the Trust Fund for payment
into the Interest Account, the Pr incipal Account and the
Bond Redemption Account, such accounts being on a parity
with each other as to payment from the Trust Fund.
(3) Trust Fund Revenues shall next be used, to the
full extent necessary, for deposit with the Trustee into the
Debt Service Reserve Account, immediately upon receipt of
such Trust Fund Revenues, of the difference between the
amount on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account
(including any Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve
Account Letter of Credit) and the Reserve Account Require-
ment for the Bonds Outstanding, and, provided, further, that
no payments shall be required to be made into the Debt
Service Reserve Account whenever and as long as the amount
deposited therein (including any Reserve Account Insurance
Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit) shall be equal
to the Reserve Account Requirement for the Bonds Outstand-
ing.
Notwi thstanding the foregoing provisions, in lieu of
or in substitute for the required deposits of Trust Fund
Revenues (including existing deposi ts of Trust Fund
Revenues) into the Debt Service Reserve Account, the Agency
may cause to be deposi ted into the Debt Service Reserve
Account a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or a Reserve
Account Letter of Credit for the benefit of the holders of
the Bonds Outstanding in an amount equal to the difference
between the Reserve Account Requirement for the Bonds Out-
standing and the sums then on deposi t in the Debt Service
Reserve Account, if any, which Reserve Account Insurance
Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit shall be payable
or available to be drawn upon, as the case may be, (upon the
giving of notice as required thereunder) on any Interest
Payment Date on which a def iciency exists which cannot be
cured by moneys in any other fund or account held pursuant
to this Resolution and available for such purpose. If a
disbursement is made under the Reserve Account Insurance
Policy or the Reserve Account Letter of Credit, the Agency
shall be obligated to either reinstate the maximum limits of
such Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account
Letter of Credit immediately following such disbursement or
to deposi t into the Debt Service Reserve Account from the
Trust Fund Revenues, as herein provided, funds in the amount
- 21 -

of the disbursements made under such Reserve Account Insur-
ance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit, or a
combination of such alternatives as shall equal the Reserve
Account Requirement for the Bonds Outstanding.
Moneys in Debt Service Reserve Account shall be used
only for the purpose of making payments of principal of and
interest on the Bonds when the moneys in the Trust Fund or
any other fund or account held pursuant to this Resolution
and available for such purpose are insufficient therefor.
Any moneys in the Debt Service Reserve Account in
excess of the Reserve Account Requi rement for the Bonds
Outstanding may, in the discretion of the Agency, be trans-
ferred to and deposited in the Interest Account, the Prin-
cipal Account or the Bond Redemption Account as the Agency
at its option may determine.
The Debt Service Reserve Account shall be valued at
least once in each Fiscal Year and the value of securities
on deposi t therein shall be the lower of par, or if pur-
chased at other than par, amortized value. Amortized value,
when used with respect to securities purchased at a premium
above or a discount below par, shall mean the value at any
given date obtained by dividing the total premium or dis-
count at which such securities were purchased by the number
of interest payment dates remaining to matur i ty on such
securities after such purchase and by multiplying the amount
so calculated by the number of interest payment dates having
passed since the date of purchase; and (i) in the case of
securities purchased at a premium, by deducting the product
thus obtained from the purchase price, and (ii) in the case
of securities purchased at a discount, by adding the product
thus obtained to the purchase price.
(4) Trust Fund Revenues shall next be used for the
payment of any subordinated obligations hereafter issued by
the Agency in accordance with Section 304(G) of this Resolu-
tion, which subordinate obligations shall have such lien on
the Trust Fund Revenues as the Agency shall determine in the
proceedings author izing the issuance of such subordinated
obligations.
(5) Thereafter, the balance of any Trust Fund
Revenues remaining in said Trust Fund shall, subject to
Section 304(A), be used by the Agency for any lawful
purposes; provided, however, that none of such Trust Fund
Revenues shall ever be used for the purposes provided in
this paragraph (5) unless all payments requi red in para-
graphs (1) through (4) above, including any deficiencies for
prior payments and any amounts due to the issuer of any
Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter
of Credit, have been made in full to the date of such use.
Notwithstanding anything in Section 304(D)(1) & (2) to the
contrary failure to make the scheduled payments specified therein
shall not constitute a breach of the Agency's obligations under
this Resolution so long as, on the date that any interest or
principal payment is due on the Bonds, monies sufficient to make
such payment are on deposit in the Interest Account, principal
Account or the Bond Redemption Account, as the case may be.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision herein
to the contrary, if any amount applied to the payment of princi-
pal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds that would
have been paid from an account in the Sinking Fund, is paid
instead under a Credit Facility or a Liquidity Facility, amounts
- 22 -
z.j
deposi ted in such relevant account may be paid, to the extent
required, to the issuer of the Credit Facility or Liquidity
Facility having therefore made said corresponding payment.
E. REBATE FUND. There is hereby created and established
the "Rebate Fund" which fund shall be maintained with the Trustee
separate and apart from all other funds and accounts of the
Trustee or the Agency. Notwithstanding anything in this Resolu-
tion to the contrary, the Agency shall transfer or cause to be
transferred the amounts required to be transferred in order to
comply with the arbitrage rebate covenants contained in a certi-
ficate to be executed and delivered by the Agency in connection
wi th the issuance of each Ser ies of Bonds. The Agency shall
cause the Trustee to make payments from the Rebate Fund of
amounts required to be deposited therein to the United States of
America in the amounts and at the times required by such arbi-
trage rebate covenants. The Agency covenants for the benefit of
the Bondholders that it will comply with the requirements of the
arbi trage rebate covenants. There shall be excluded from the
pledge and lien of this Resolution the Rebate Fund, together with
all moneys and securities from time to time held therein and all
investment earnings derived therefrom. The Agency shall not be
required to comply with the requirements of this Section 304(E)
in the event that the Agency obtains an opinion of nationally
recognized bond counsel that (i) such compliance is not required
in order to maintain the exclusion from gross income for Federal
income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and/or (ii) com-
pliance with some other requirement is necessary to maintain the
exclusion from gross income for Federal income tax purposes of
interest on the Bonds.
F. INVESTMENT OF FUNDS. The Trust Fund, the Sinking
Fund, including the Interest Account, Pr incipal Account, Bond
Redemption Account and Debt Service Reserve Account and the Cost
of Issuance Fund and all other special funds (other than the
Rebate Fund) created and established by this Resolution shall
constitute trust funds in favor of the Bondholders and shall be
invested at the direction of the Agency as provided in this
Section 304(F).
Moneys on deposit in the Trust Fund, Interest Account, Prin-
cipal Account, Bond Redemption Account and Cost of Issuance Fund
may be invested in Permitted Investments maturing not later than
the dates on which such moneys will be needed for the purposes of
such fund or account.
Moneys on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account may be
invested in permi t ted Investments matur ing not later than the
final maturity of any of the Bonds.
All income and earnings received from the investment and
reinvestment of moneys in the Interest Account, the pr incipal
Account and the Bond Redemption Account in the Sinking Fund shall
be retained in the respective accounts and applied as a credi t
against the obligation of the Agency to transfer moneys from the
Trust Fund to such accounts pursuant to Section 304 (D) (1) and
Section 304(D)(2)(a) and Section 304(D)(2)(b) of this Resolution,
respectively.
All income and earnings received from the investment and
reinvestment of moneys in the Debt Service Reserve Account in the
Sinking Fund shall be retained in the Debt Service Reserve
Account and applied as a credit against the obligation of the
Agency to transfer moneys from the Trust Fund to such account,
unless the amount in such account shall exceed the Reserve
Account Requirement, in which event such excess may be applied in
the manner set forth for excess amounts in the Debt Service
Reserve Account, as described in Section 304(D)(3).

the Trustee may commingle moneys in the funds and accounts
created and established hereunder (other than the Rebate Fund) in
order to achieve greater investment income; provided that the
Agency and the Trustee shall separately account for the amounts
so commingled. The amounts required to be accounted for in each
of the funds and accounts designated herein (other than the
Rebate Fund) may be deposited in a single bank account provided
that adequate accounting procedures are maintained to reflect and
control the restr icted allocations of the amounts on deposi t
therein for the var ious purposes of such funds and accounts as
herein provided.
G. ISSUANCE OF OTHER OBLIGATIONS PAYABLE OUT OF TRUST
FUNDS. Except upon the condi tions and in the manner provided
herein, the Agency will not issue any other obligations payable
from the Pledged Funds, nor voluntarily create or cause to be
created any debt, lien, pledge, assignment, encumbrance or any
other charge having pr ior i ty to or being on a par i ty wi th the
lien of the Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution and the
interest thereon, upon any of the Pledged Funds; provided that
the Agency may enter into agreements with issuers of Credit
Facilities and Liquidity Facilities which involve liens on Trust
Fund Revenues on a par i ty wi th that of the Ser ies of Bonds or
portion thereof which is supported by such Credit Facilities or
Liquidity Facilities. Any other obligations, in addition to the
Bonds author ized by this Resolution or additional par i ty Bonds
issued under the terms, restrictions and conditions contained in
this Resolution, shall provide that such obligations are junior,
infer ior and subordinate in all respects to the Bonds issued
pursuant to this Resolution as to lien on and source and security
for payment from the Trust Fund Revenues and in all other
respects. Nothing in this Resolution shall be deemed to prohibit
the Agency from entering into currency swaps or other arrange-
ments for pledging interest rates on any indebtedness.
H. ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL PARITY BONDS. No additional
parity Bonds, as in this subsection defined, payable on a parity
wi th Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution out of Pledged
Funds shall be issued after the issuance of any Bonds pursuant to
this Resolution unless the following, among other conditions, are
complied with:
(1) The Agency must be current in all deposits into
the various funds and accounts and all payments theretofore
requi red to have been deposi ted or made by it under the
provisions of this Resolution and the Agency must be
currently in compliance with the covenants and provisions of
this Resolution and any supplemental resolution hereafter
adopted for the issuance of additional parity Bonds; unless
upon the issuance of such additional parity Bonds the Agency
will be in compliance with all such covenants and provi-
sions.
(2) The amount of the Trust Fund Revenues during the
immediately preceding Fiscal Year or any twelve (12) conse-
cutive months selected by the Agency of the eighteen (18)
months immediately preceding the issuance of said additional
parity Bonds, as certified by an independent certified
public accountant, were at least equal to one hundred twenty
five percent (125%) of the Maximum Annual Debt Service on
(1) the Bonds originally issued pursuant to this Resolution
and then Outstanding, (2) any additional parity Bonds there-
- 24 -
~? t;
tofore issued and then Outstanding, and (3) the additional
parity Bonds then proposed to be issued.
(3) The Agency need not comply with subparagraph (2)
of this paragraph in the issuance of additional parity Bonds
if and to the extent the Bonds to be issued are refunding
Bonds, that is, delivered in lieu of or in substitution for
Bonds originally issued under this Resolution or previously
issued additional parity Bonds, if the Agency shall cause to
be delivered a certificate of the Executive Director of the
Agency setting forth (i) the Maximum Annual Debt Service (A)
with respect to the Bonds of all Series Outstanding immedi-
ately prior to the date of authentication and delivery of
such refunding Bonds, and (B) with respect to the Bonds of
all Ser ies to be Outstanding immediately thereafter, and
(ii) that the Maximum Annual Debt Service set forth pursuant
to (B) above is no greater than that set forth pursuant to
(A) above.
Simultaneously with the delivery of any Bonds issued
pursuant to Sections (2) and (3) above for the purpose of
refunding any Bonds issued under this Resolution, the Agency
may withdraw from the Sinking Fund amounts theretofore
deposi ted which are allocable to the Bonds being refunded
and shall transfer said amounts in accordance with the reso-
lution providing for the issuance of the refunding Bonds,
provided that after such withdrawal the Agency shall be in
compliance with the provisions of this Resolution.
The term "additional parity Bonds" as used in this
Resolution shall be deemed to mean additional obligations
evidenced by Bonds issued upon the provisions and within the
limitations of this subsection to finance Redevelopment
Projects payable from the Pledged Funds on a par i ty wi th
Bonds originally authorized and issued pursuant to this
Resolution. Such Bonds shall be deemed to have been issued
pursuant to this Resolution the same as the Bonds originally
authorized and issued pursuant to this Resolution and all of
the covenants and other provisions of this Resolution
(except as to details of such Bonds evidencing such addi-
tional parity obligations inconsistent therewith), shall be
for the equal benefit, protection and security of the
holders of any Bonds originally authorized and issued pur-
suant to this Resolution and the holders of any Bonds
evidencing additional obligations subsequently issued within
the limitations of and in compliance with this subsection.
All of such Bonds, regardless of the time or times of their
issuance shall rank equally wi th respect to their lien on
the Pledged Funds and their sources and security for payment
therefrom without preference of any Bonds over any other.
The term "addi tional par i ty Bonds" as used in this
Resolution shall not be deemed to include bonds, notes,
certificates or other obligations subsequently issued in
accordance with this Resolution, the lien of which on the
Pledged Funds is subject to the prior and superior lien on
the Pledged Funds of Bonds and the Agency shall not issue
any obligations whatsoever payable from the Pledged Funds,
which rank equally as to lien and source and secur i ty for
their payment from such Pledged Funds, with Bonds except in
the manner and under the conditions provided in subsection
(G) above and this subsection.
I. BOOKS AND RECORDS. The Agency will keep separately
identifiable accounting records for the receipt of the Pledged
Funds by the use of a fund established in accordance with gener-
ally accepted accounting principles, and any holder of a Bond or
- 25 -
2~7
Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution, shall have the right at
all reasonable times to inspect all records, accounts and data of
the Agency relating thereto.
The Agency shall promptly after the close of each Fiscal
Year cause the books, records and accounts relating to the
Pledged Funds for such Fiscal Year to be properly audi ted by a
qualified, recognized and nationally known independent firm of
certified public accountants and shall file the report of such
certified public accountants in the office of the Executive
Director, and shall mail upon request, and make available gener-
ally, said report, or a reasonable summary thereof, to any holder
or holders of Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution.
Such audited books, records and accounts shall contain the
statements required by generally accepted accounting principles
applicable to governmental entities, and a certificate of such
certified public accountants disclosing any breach on the part of
the Agency of any covenant herein.
J. NO IMPAIRMENT OF CONTRACT. The Agency has full power
and author i ty to irrevocably pledge the Pledged Funds to the
payment of the pr incipal of and interest on the Bonds. The
pledge of such Pledged Funds, in the manner provided herein,
shall not be subject to repeal, modification or impairment by any
subsequent resolution, ordinance or other proceedings of the
Agency so long as any Bonds are Outstanding hereunder. The
Agency shall take all actions necessary and pursue such legal
remedies which may be available to it either in law or in equity
to prevent or cure any impairment by any entity other than the
Agency within the meaning of this subsection.
K. REMEDIES. Any holder of Bonds issued under the provi-
sions of this Resolution or the Trustee acting for such Bond-
holders, may either at law or in equity, by suit, action, man-
damus or other proceedings in any court of competent jurisdic-
tion, protect and enforce any and all rights under the laws of
the State, or granted and contained in this Resolution, and may
enforce and compel the performance of all duties required by this
Resolution or by any applicable statutes, including the Act, to
be performed by the Agency or by any officer thereof. Nothing
herein, however, shall be construed to grant any Holder of such
Bonds any lien on any property of the Agency, except as provided
herein. No Holder of Bonds, however, shall have any right in any
manner whatever to affect adversely, or prejudice the security of
this Resolution or to express any right hereunder except in the
manner herein provided, and all proceedings at law or in equity
shall be instituted and maintained for the benefit of all Holders
of Bonds.
The Holder or Holders of Bonds in an aggregate principal
amount of more than twenty per centum (20%) of Bonds issued under
this Resolution then Outstanding may by a duly executed certi-
ficate in wr i ting request the Trustee to represent such Bond-
holders in any legal proceedings for the enforcement and protec-
tion of the rights of such Bondholders. Such certificate shall
be executed by such Bondholders or their duly authorized attor-
neys or representatives, and shall be filed in the office of the
Executive Director.
L. ENFORCEMENT OF COLLECTIONS. The Agency will dili-
gently enforce and collect the Trust Fund Revenues and will take
all steps, actions and proceedings for the enforcement and col-
lection of such Trust Fund Revenues to the full extent permitted
or author ized by appl icable laws, including the Act. All such
Trust Fund Revenues shall, as collected, be held in trust to be
applied as herein provided and not otherwise.

M. DISCHARGE AND SATISFACTION OF BONDS. The covenants,
liens and pledges entered into, created or imposed pursuant to
this Resolution may be fully discharged and satisfied with
respect to all or a portion of the Bonds in anyone or more of
the following ways:
(1) by paying the principal of and interest on such
Bonds when the same shall become due and payable; or
(2) by depositing in the Interest Account, the Prin-
cipal Account and the Bond Redemption Account and/or in such
other accounts which are irrevocably pledged to the payment
of Bonds as the Agency may hereafter create and establish by
resolution, certain moneys which together with other moneys
lawfully available therefor, if any, shall be sufficient at
the time of such deposi t to pay when due the pr incipal,
redemption premium, if any, and interest due and to become
due on said Bonds on or pr ior to the redempt ion date or
maturity date thereof; or
(3) by depositing in the Interest Account, the Prin-
cipal Account and the Bond Redemption Account and/or such
other accounts which are irrevocably pledged to the payment
of Bonds as the Agency may hereafter create and establish by
resolution, moneys which together with other moneys lawfully
available therefor when invested in such Defeasance Obliga-
tions which shall not be subject to redemption pr ior to
their maturity other than at the option of the holder there-
of, will provide moneys which shall be sufficient to pay
when due the pr incipal, redemption premium, if any, and
interest due and to become due on said Bonds on or prior to
the redemption date or maturity date thereof.
Upon such payment or deposit in the amount and manner
provided in this Section 304(M), Bonds shall be deemed to be
paid and shall no longer be deemed to be Outstanding for the
purposes of this Resolution and all liability of the Agency
wi th respect to said Bonds shall cease, terminate and be
completely discharged and extinguished, and the Holders
thereof shall be enti tled for payment solely out of the
moneys or securities so deposited; provided that in the
event said Bonds do not mature and are not to be redeemed
within the next succeeding sixty (60) days, the Agency shall
have given the Registrar irrevocable instructions to give,
as soon as practicable, a notice to the Holders of said
Bonds by first-class mail, postage prepaid, stating that the
deposi t of said moneys or Defeasance Obligations has been
made with an appropriate fiduciary institution acting as
escrow agent solely for the Holders of said Bond and other
Bonds being defeased, and that said Bonds are deemed to have
been paid in accordance with this Section and stating such
ma tur i ty or redemption date upon which moneys are to be
available for the payment of the principal of and premium,
if any, and interest on said Bonds.
(4) As to Var iable Rate Bonds, whether discharged
and satisfied under the provisions of subsection (l), (2) or
(3) above, the amount required for the interest thereon
shall be calculated at the maximum rate permitted by the
terms of the provisions which author ized the issuance of
such Variable Rate Bonds; provided however, that if on any
date, as a result of such Variable Rate Bonds having borne
interest at less than such maximum rate for any period, the
total amount of moneys and Defeasance Obligations on deposit
for the payment of interest on such Variable Rate Bonds is
in excess of the total amount which would have been required
to be deposi ted on such date in respect of such Var iable
- 27 -
29
Rate Bonds in order to fully discharge and satisfy such
Bonds pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Agency
may use the amount of such excess free and clear of any
trust, lien, security interest, pledge or assignment secur-
ing said Var iable Rate Bonds or otherwise existing under
this Resolution.
(5) Notwi thstanding any of the provisions of this
Resolution to the contrary, Put Bonds and Extendible
Matur i ty Bonds may only be fully discharged and satisf ied
either pursuant to subsection (1) above or by depositing in
the Interest Account, the Pr incipal Account and the Bond
Redemption Account, or in such other accounts which are
irrevocably pledged to the payment of the Put Bonds as the
Agency may hereafter create and establish by resolution,
moneys which together with moneys lawfully available there-
for, if any, shall be sufficient at the time of such deposit
to pay when due the maximum amount of principal of and
redemption premium, if any, and interest on such Put Bonds
and Extendible Maturity Bonds which could become payable to
the Holders of such Bonds upon the exercise of any options
provided to the Holders of such Bonds; provided however,
that if, at the time a deposi t is made pursuant to this
subsection (5), the options or iginally exercisable by the
Holder of a Put Bond are no longer exercisable, such Bond
shall not be considered a Put Bond and Extendible Maturity
Bond for purposes of this subsection (5).
(6) Notwithstanding the foregoing, all references to
the discharge and satisfaction of Bonds shall include the
discharge and satisfaction of any issue of Bonds, any por-
tion of an issue of Bonds, any maturity or maturities of an
issue of Bonds, any portion of a matur i ty of an issue of
Bonds or any combination thereof, provided that the provi-
sions of this subsection (6) shall not affect the require-
ments regarding Put Bonds and Extendible Maturity Bonds set
forth in subsection (5).
In the event that the principal and redemption
price, if applicable, and interest due on the Bonds shall be
paid by the issuer of a Credit Facility or Liquidity
Facility pursuant to the terms thereof, the assignment and
pledge created hereunder and all covenants, agreements and
other obligations of the Agency to the Bondholders shall
continue to exist and the issuer of such Credit Facility or
Liquidity Facility shall be subrogated to the rights of such
Bondholders.
(7) If any portion of the moneys deposi ted for the
payment of the principal of and redemption premium, if any,
and interest on any portion of Bonds is not required for
such purpose, the Agency may use the amount of such excess
free and clear of any trust, lien, security interest, pledge
or assignment securing said Bonds or otherwise existing
under this Resolution.
N. CONCERNING THE RESERVE ACCOUNT INSURANCE POLICY, THE
RESERVE ACCOUNT LETTER OF CREDIT, CREDIT FACILITY AND/OR LIQUID-
ITY FACILITY. As long as the Agency shall have a Reserve Account
Insurance Policy and/or a Reserve Account Letter of Credi t on
deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account, the Agency covenants
that it will comply wi th the provisions of the Reserve Account
Insurance Policy and/or the reimbursement or similar agreement
with respect to the Reserve Account Letter of Credit.
As long as any Series of Bonds of the Agency are secured by
a Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility, the Agency covenants to
- 28 -
30
comply with the requirements and conditions imposed on the Agency
by the issuer of the Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility.
Notwithstanding anything in this Resolution to the contrary,
the rights of any issuer of a Credit Facility or Liquidity
Facility created under this Resolution shall remain in full force
and effect only so long as the applicable Credit Facility or
Liquidity Facility shall remain in effect and the issuer of such
Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility shall not be in default in
its payment obligations to the holders of Bonds secured by such
facility.

EXECUTION OF INSTRUMENTS BY BONDHOLDERS
AND PROOF OF OWNERSHIP OF BONDS
SECTION 501. PROOF OF EXECUTION OF DOCUMENTS AND OWNERSHIP.
(a) Any request, direction, consent or other instrument in
writing required by this Resolution to be signed or executed by
Bondholders may be in any number of concurrent instruments of
similar tenor and may be signed or executed by such Bondholders
in person or by their attorneys or legal representatives
appointed by an instrument in writing. Proof of the execution of
any such instrument and of the ownership of Bonds shall be suffi-
cient for any purpose of this Resolution and shall be conclusive
in favor of the Fiduciary with regard to any action taken by it
under such instrument if made in the following manner:
(1) The fact and date of the execution by any person
of any such instrument may be proved by the verification of
any officer in any jurisdiction who, by the laws thereof,
has power to take affidavits within such jurisdiction, to
the effect that such instrument was subscribed and sworn to
before him, or by an affidavit of a witness to such execu-
tion. Where such execution is in behalf of a person other
than an individual, such verification shall also constitute
sufficient approval of the authority of the signor thereof.
( 2) The ownership of Bonds shall be proved by the
registration books required to be maintained pursuant to the
provisions of this Resolution.
Nothing contained in this Article shall be construed as
limiting the Fiduciary to such proof, it being intended that the
Fiduciary may accept any other evidence of the matters herein
stated which it may deem sufficient.
(b) If the Agency shall solicit from the Holders any
request, direction, consent or other instrument in wr i ting re-
quired or permitted by this Resolution to be signed or executed
by the Holders, the Agency may, at its option, fix in advance a
record date for determination of Holders entitled to give each
request, direction, consent or other instrument, but the Autho-
rity shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is
fixed, such request, direction, consent or other instrument may
be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders
of record at the close of business on such record date shall be
deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether
Holders of the requisite proportion of Bonds have authorized or
agreed or consented to such request, direction, consent or other
instrument, and for that purpose the Bonds shall be computed as
of such record date.
(c) Any request or consent of the Holder of any Bond shall
bind every future Holder of the same Bond in respect of anything
done by the Agency or any Fiduciary in pursuance of such request
or consent.

Facility or Liquidity Facility:
(a) to cure any ambiguity or formal defect or omis-
sion in this Resolution or in any supplemental resolutions
or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein
which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provi-
sions contained herein; or
(b) to grant to or confer upon the Bondholders any
addi tional rights, remedies, powers, author i ty or secur i ty
that may lawfully be granted to or conferred upon the Bond-

adoption of such supplemental resolution, there shall be
delivered to the Agency an opinion of counsel of recognized
standing relating to municipal bonds to the effect that the
issuance of Bonds in coupon form is then permitted by law
and that the issuance of such Bonds in coupon form would not
cause interest on such Bonds to be included in gross income
for Federal income tax purposes under the Code to the
Holders thereof; or

Bonds, Interim Bonds and such other Bonds as may be market-
able from time to time; or

Trustee shall cause a notice of a proposed supplemental resolu-
tion requiring the consent of Bondholders to be mailed, postage
prepaid, to all Holders of Bonds then Outstanding at their
addresses as they appear on the registration books. Such notice
shall briefly set forth the nature of the proposed supplemental
resolution and shall state that a copy thereof is on file at the
principal corporate trust office of the Trustee for inspection by
all Bondholders. The Trustee shall not, however, be subject to
any liability to any Bondholder by reason of its failure to mail
the notice required by this Section, and any such failure shall
not affect the validity of such supplemental resolution when
consented to or approved as provided in this Section.
Whenever, at any time after the date of the mailing of such
notice, the Agency shall deliver to the Trustee an instrument or
instruments purporting to be executed by the Holders of at least
a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Out-

and the Agency shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate signed
by the Chairman that the Holders of such required percentage of
Bonds have filed such consents, the Agency may adopt such supple-
mental resolutions in substantially such form without liability
or responsibility to any Holder of any Bond, whether or not such
Holder shall have consented thereto. It shall not be necessary
for the consent of the Holders to approve the particular form of
any proposed supplemental resolution, but it shall be sufficient
if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.
If the Holders of more than fifty per centum (50%) in aggre-
gate principal amount of the Bonds of each Series as affected and
Outstanding at the time of the execution of such supplemental
resolution shall have consented to and approved the adoption
thereof as herein provided, no Holder shall have any right to
object to the adoption of such supplemental resolution, or to
- 35 -
'l f"1
.J i
object to any of the terms and provisions therein contained, or
the operation thereof, or in any manner to question the propriety
of the adoption thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the Agency from
adopting the same or from taking any action pursuant to the pro-
visions thereof.
The consent of the Holders of any additional Series of Bonds
to be issued hereunder shall be deemed given if the underwriters
or initial purchasers for resale consent in writing to such sup-
plemental resolution and the nature of the amendment effected by
such supplemental resolution is disclosed in the official state-
ment or other offering document pursuant to which such additional
Series of Bonds is offered and sold to the public.
SECTION 602. SEVERABILITY OF INVALID PROVISIONS. I f any
one or more of the covenants, agreements or provisions of this
Resolution should be held contrary to any express provision of
law or contrary to the policy of express law, though not express-
ly prohibited, or against public policy, or shall for any reason
whatsoever be held invalid, then such covenants, agreements or
provisions shall be null and void and shall be deemed separate
from the remaining covenants, agreements or provisions, and shall

in Section 20l with respect to the Series 1989 Bonds, the Bonds
shall be issued and sold at one time or from time to time and at

MIAMI BEACH REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
Tax Increment Revenue Bonds
Series 1989
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Private Placement Memorandum, including its Appendices, is to set forth
certain informatJOn with respect to the issuance and sale by the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency
(tht: "Agency") of its $6,000,000* aggregate principal amount of Tax Increment Revenue Bonds, Series
1989 (the "Series 1989 Bonds").
The Series 1989 Honds are being issued pursuant to (i) Resolution No. ,duly ,-duple,] by
thE- Agency on June 21, 1989 (the "Bond Resolution"), as approved by Resolution :\0.
adopted by the City Commission of the City of Miami Beach, Florida (the "City"), on June 21, 1989,
and as further approved by the Board of County Commissioners of Dade County, Florida (the
"C<mnly"), on June 20, 1989, and (ii) the provisions of the Florida Community Redevelopment Act,
Chapter 163, Part III, Florida Statutes (together with other applicable provisions of Florida law, the
"Act"). In accordance with the Act, a certain portion of the City known as the "South Pointe
Redevelopment Area" (the "Redevelopment Area") has been designated as a redevelopment area
under a redevelopment plan (the "Redevelopment Plan"), and a redevelopment trust fund (the
"lkdevelopment Trust Fund") has been established for financing or refinancing community
redevelopment projects in the Redevelopment Area, including the payment of revenue bonds issued to
finance the undertaking of any community redevelopment under the Act. Such bonds are payable
from Tax Increment Revenues and other available revenues and funds derived from or held in
connection with the undertaking and carrying out of community redevelopment projects in the
Redevelopment Area. Under the Act, "Tax Increment Revenues" are defined to be the amount,
determined annually, representing 95% of the difference between (i) the amount of ad valorem taxes
le\;ed each year by the City and the County (exclusive of debt service millage) on all taxable real
property within the boundaries of the Redevelopment Area and (ij) the amount of such taxes that
would have been produced if the City and the County had applied the applicable tax levy rate
(exclusive of debt service millage) upon the total assessed value of all real property in the
Redevelopment Area as of the date prior to the date of the establishment of the Redevelopment Trust
Fu..~d (the "Base Year"). See the caption, "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE
SERIES 1989 BONDS - Tax Increment Revenues - General." The Series 1989 Bonds represent the
first series of obligations to be issued by the Agency payable out of the Tax Increment Revenues
deposited into the Redevelopment Trust Fund and all other moneys, securities and instruments held
in the funds and accounts (other than the Rebate Fund) created and established under the Bond
~Iution (collectively, the "Pledged Funds").
The Series 1989 Bonds are being issued to provide funds to (i) finance the acquisition and clearing
of and related improvements to certain property in the Redevelopment Area in accordance with the
Redevelopment Plan for the construction and equipping of one or more projects, consisting, among
ol~r things, of any or aJ1 of multi-unit residential, commercial and parking components (the
"Project"); (ij) fund the Debt Service Reserve Account, as defined and described herein; and (iii) pay a
portion of the costs of issuance of the Series 1989 Bonds. Under the Act and the Bond Resolution, the
Series 1989 Bonds and any additional bonds issued under the Bond Resolution on a parity therewith
(the" Additional Bonds" and, together with the Series 1989 Bonds, the "Bonds") will not be deemed to
constitute either (i) a debt, liability or obligation or (ii) a pledge of the faith and credit or the taxing

power of the Agency, the City, the County, the State of Florida (the "State") or any other political
subdivision thereof, and will be payahle solely from the Pledged Funds. None of the Agency, the City,
th~ County or the Slate or any other political subdivision thereof will ever be required to levy
ad l'alorem taxes to pay the principal of or interest on the Series 1989 Bonds or to make any of the
sinking fund, reserve or other payments required by the Bond Resolution or the Series 1989 Bonds.
The Series 1989 Bonds will not constitute a lien upon any property owned by or situated within the
corporate territory of the Agency or the City except as provided in the Bond Resolution and described
herein with respect to the Pledged Funds. The Agency has no power to levy ad ualorem taxes for any
purpose, and the ability of the Agency to collect Tax Increment Revenues sufficient to meet its
obligations under the Bond Resolution, including the payment of the Series 1989 Bonds, will be subject
to a variety of economic and demographic circumstances and cannot be predicted with certainty. See
"RISK FACTORS" herein and Appendix A, "Projection of Tax Increment Revenues in the South
Pointe Redevelopment Area, Miami Beach, Florida, 1989 - 1993" (the "Projection Report").
There follows in this Private Placement Memorandum a brief description of the security and
sources of payment for the Series 1989 Bonds, Bondholder risks, the Project to be financed in part out
of the proceeds of the Series 1989 Bonds, and summaJ"ie5 of ceriain provisions of the Series 1989 Bonds
and the Bond Resolution. All references to the Act and the Bond Resolution are qualified in their
entirety by reference to the Act and the Bond Resolution, with copies of the Bond Resolution available
from the Agency or the Placement Agents. All references to the Series 1989 Bonds are qualified in
their entirety by reference to the definitive form of and the information with respect to the Series 1989
Bonds contained in the Bond Resolution and any subsequent determinations with respect to the Series
1989 Bonds that may be adopted by or on behalf of the Agency. The Projection Report relating to the
Agency, the Project and the Tax Increment Revenues is set forth in Appendix A; certain additional
information concerning the Project and certain background information relating to the City are set
forth in Appendix B; and a summary of certain provisions of the Bond Resolution is set forth in
Appendix C. Each of the Appendices to this Private Placement ~emorandum is an integral part of

prospecti ve owners of the Series 1989 Bonds.

SI<;CUHITY AND SOUHCES OF PAYMI<:NT FOH THE SEHIES 1989 BONDS
The Series 1989 Bonds are payable only out of the Tax Increment Revenues and from other
PI(-dged Funds under the Bond Resolution. The Scries 1989 Bonds do not constitute an indehtedness of
the Agency, the City, the County, the State or any other political subdivision thereof within the
mcaning of any constitutional, statutory or other provision or limitation. The lien of the Series 1989
Bonds does not attach until Tax Increment Revenu('s are deposited into the Redevelopment Trust
Fund, and the owners of the Series 1989 Bonds will never have the right to require or compel the
exercise of the ad valorem laxing power of the County or the City, or laxation in any form on any real
or personal property therein, for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Series 1989 Bonds or
the making of any other payments required under the Bond Resolution. The Agency has no power to
le,.y ad valorem taxes for any purpose.
Tax Increment Revenues - - General
The Bonds are secured in part by the pledge of Tax Increment Revenues deposited intp the
Rt:ct:vclopment Trust Fund established by an ordinance adopted pursuant to the Act. Each taxing
authority that is required to make payments to the Redevelopment Trust Fund must do so on or before
,January 1 of each year. Within the Redevelopment Area, the only taxing authorities required
to make payments of Tax Increment Hevenues to the Redevelopment Trust Fund are the City
and the County.
Required payments by the City and the County to the Redevelopment Trust Fund are based on the
as~ssed valuation measurement date for taxable real property as of January 1 of the previous year.
Pursuant to the Act, on or before each January I, each such taxing authority must appropriate and
pay to the Redevelopment Trust Fund an amount equal to 95% of the difference between:
(1) The amount of ad valorem taxes levied each year by that taxing authority, exclusive of any
amount from any debt service millage, on taxable real property contained within the geographic
boundaries of the Redevelopment Area; and
(2) The amount of ad valorem taxes which would ha ve been produced by the rate upon which the
tax is levied each year by or for that taxing authority, exclusive of any debt service millage, upon the
assessed valuation of the taxable real property in the Redevelopment Area as of the Base Year,
January 1, 1976.
The resulting incremental increase in ad valorem taxes is used to measure the amount of the
contribution which must be appropriated and contributed by each taxing authority which is required
to make payments. Under Florida law, the statutory obligation of the City and the County to make
the required payments to a duly established redevelopment trust fund continues for so long as a
redevelopment agency has indebtedness pledging tax increment revenues to the payment thereof
outstanding, but not to exceed 30 years from the adoption of the ordinance providing for funding of the
redevelopment trust fund. However, the City's obligation under its municipal code to make such
payments is limited to the amount, if any, of tax revenues actually received. See the caption, "RISK
FACTORS" herein. Additionally, the obligation of the governing body which established the
redevelopment agency to fund the redevelopment trust fund annually continues until all loans,
ad'"ances and indebtedness, if any, and interest thereon, of a redevelopment agency incurred as a
result of redevelopment in a redevelopment area have been paid. The Agency has covenanted in the
Bond Resolution diligently to enforce its right to receive and dispose of the Pledged Funds and has
agreed that it will not take any action which would impair or adversely affect the Pledged Funds or the
right to receive such revenues.
With respect to the payment of the Series 1989 Bonds, to understand the method of measuring and
calculating the contribution of Tax Increment Revenues required to be made by the taxing authorities,
the general method offixing millage provides pertinent background.

Generally. Florida law currently mandates the following procedures in fixing mi lIuge rutes:
(a) January I of each year is the statutory measurement date used by each county property
appraiser for estahlishing just value of real property within the county Real property improvements
or portions thereof not substantially completed on January I arc deemed to have no value placed
thereon, and substantially completed property as of January I is assessed by the county property
appraiser based on itsjust value.
(b) On or before July I of each year, each county property appraiser is required to complete an
assessment of the value of all property located within the county (unless extended for good cause by
the State Department of Revenue). Upon completion of this assessment, the county property appraiser
is required to certify to each taxing authority the taxable value within the jurisdiction of the taxing
authority. This certification includes the just value of new construction, additions to structures,
deletions and property added due to geographic boundary changes substantially complete as of
January I of each year.
(c) Each taxing authority is required to compute the milJ(l~r,r:> kr.own a~ the "rolled back rate."
That rate is the rate which, exclusive of (i) new const"uction, (iiJ additions to structures, (iii) deletions,
and (iv) property added due to geographic boundary changes, will provide the same ad valorem tax
re"'enue for each taxing authority as was levied during the prior year.
(d) Upon preparation of a tentative budget, but prior to adoption thereof, each taxing authority in
addition to computing the "rolled back rate" is required to compute the proposed millage rate which
would be necessary to fund the tentative budget, other than the portion of the budget to be funded from
other than ad L'alorem taxes. In computing proposed or final millage rates, each taxing authority
utilizes not less than 95% of the taxable value certified by the county property appraiser. In
establishing the tentative budget and the proposed millage rate, the taxing authority is not bound by
the "rolled back rate" and, in accordance with Florida law, may exceed the "rolled back rate" or may
eyen adopt a tentative budget and proposed millage rate which would be less than the "rolled back
rate."
(e) Within 35 days of the county property appraiser's certification, each taxing authority is
required to advise the county property appraiser of its proposed millage rate and the "rolled back rate"
and the date and time at which a public hearing will be held to consider the proposed millage rate and
the tentative budget. The county property appraiser utilizes this information in preparing the notice
of proposed property taxes required to be mailed to property owners. Additionally, if this information
is not provided in a timely fashion as required by statute, the taxing authority is prohibited from
levying a millage rate greater than the "rolled back rate" for the upcoming fiscal year.
<0 Each taxing authority is statutorily required to hold a minimum of two public hearings on the
proposed millage rate and tentative budget prior to adopting a final millage rate and a final budget.
At the first public hearing, the taxing authority may amend the tentative budget and proposed
millage rate as it seems fit and adopt a tentative budget and proposed millage rate. At the second
public hearing, the taxing authority may adopt the final budget and final millage rate. The final
budget and final millage rate adopted at the second hearing cannot exceed the tentative budget and
tentative millage rate adopted at the first public hearing. Except as otherwise provided by statute, no
millage rate (exclusive of ad valorem debt service millage) for the County and the City may annually
exc:eed 10 mills each without voter approval.
The final millage rate is that millage rate used to calculate the tax increment revenue payments
required to be made to a redevelopment trust fund on or before January 1 of the next year. Final
millage rates generally should have been adopted by October 1 of each year, to allow sufficient time for
taxing authorities to calculate the required payment to the redevelopment trust fund and to submit
the same on or before January 1. Pursuant to statute, unless otherwise permitted by law, final
budgets must be adopted by taxing authorities prior to the beginning of a taxing authority's fiscal
year. Typically, property tax statements are mailed on or about November I, with collection through
-6-
b7
~u\'('mber 30 providing a maximum discount of 4% and descending to 0% as of March 1 of the
following year. Taxes arc delinquent as of Aprill.
Tax Increment Revenues for the Redevelopment Area - - Historical and Projected
The Tax Increment Revenues will be collected by the Agency pursuant to the Redevelopment Plan,
as amended, originally adopted in 1976, which is the Base Year for the calculation of such Tax
Increment Revenues. The aggregate assessed value of taxable real property in the Redevelopment
Area as of July 1,1976, used for determining the incremental assessed valuation in future years, was
$59,637,130. The amount of Tax Increment Revenues to be received in any year depends upon the
assessed valuation of taxable real property in the Redevelopment Area as of each January], the
incremental increase in such valuation above the valuation for the Base Year and the total millage
rat.e levied by the relevant laxing authorities (including the County). All of these factors are beyond
the control or prediction of the Agency. However, based upon historical data and estimates of new
construction of privately owned projects, including the Project, in the Redevelopment Area and growth
and projected growth in real estate values resulting from public and private investment in the
R1:~evel(lpmcnt Area, the Agency's feilsibilily consultants, Hewitt, Olson, Smoker & ASsoclules, inc.,
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, have prepared projections of Tax Increment Revenues for the
Re-development Area for the years 1989 - 1993, set forth in the Projection Report as Appendix A. Such
projections ha ve been prepared only with respect to the years 1989 through] 993, and the Agency has
not projected collections of Tax Increment Revenues for the remaining years in which the Series] 989
&nds will be outstanding. The projections set forth in the Projection Report are based upon certain
analytical, economic and demographic assumptions stated therein, and the Projection Report should
be read in its entirety as a central and integral part of this Private Placement ~emorandum.
The following table, which is based upon and contained in substantially identical form in
the Projection Report., sets forth historical and anticipated collections of Tax Increment
Revenues in the Redevelopment Area from calendar year ]982 through calendar year 1993,
This table should be considered in conjunction with the entire Projection Report., including
the assumptions made therein, set forth in Appendix A, The Agency cannot provide any
assurances that the Tax Increment Revenues actuaIJy realized will meet the forecasts in the
Projection Report. See the captions, "RISK FACTORS" and "LITIGATION," herein.

Taxable Real Property is based on the January I assessment of each year. The Agency receives lax increment
revenues, as indicated for each calendar year, in January of the following year. Consequently, for example, "Total Tax
Increment" ligures for calendar year 1989 would be received by the Agency 011 January 1,1990, and would be available
during the 1990 calendar year to pay debt service on the Series 1989 Bonds and to be applied to other authorized
purposes under the Bond Resolution.
2 The Redevelopment Area was created in 1976 with an mitial unable value of$59.637,130 (base year). The "Increment
of Taxable Real Property" is the value of taxable real property in the current year minus the value of ta](able real
property in the base year.
3 Includes interest paid by the County through January] 98B as a result of late payment of tax increment for 1987.
4 Includes an additional payment by the City.

Application of Tax Increment Reveaues Deposited into the Redevelopment Trust J<'und
Under the Bond Resolution, the Agency has covenanted to maintain the Redevelopment Trust
Fund into which all Tax Increment Revenues are to be deposited. The Redevelopment Trust Fund will
be held by the Agency, will be maintained separately and distinct from all other Agency funds and will
be used only for the purposes and in the manner set forth in the Bond Resolution and in the Act.
t: nder the Bond Resolution, the Agency's anticipated annual collections of Tax Increment Revenues
deposited in the Redevelopment Trust Fund must be used in the following order of priority:
(1) Tax Increment Revenues will first be used, immediately upon receipt and to the full extent
necessary, for deposit into an "Jnterest Account" established under the Bond Resolution in such
amounts as will be sufficient to pay all interest coming due on the Bonds during the calendar year of
such deposit. However, such deposits for interest will not be required to be made into the Interest
Account to the extent that sufficient amounts are already on deposit therein.
(2) (a) Tax Increment Revenues will next be used, immediately upon receipt and to the full extent
necessary, for deposit into a "Principal Account" established under the Bond Resolution, in such
amounts as will be sufficient to pay the principal amount of all serial Bonds, if any, that will mature
during the calendar year of such deposit. However, such deposits for principal will not be required to
be made into the Principal Account to the extent that sufficient amounts are already on deposit
therein.
(b) Tax Increment Revenues will next be used, to the full extent necessary, for deposit into a
"Bond Redemption Account" established under the Bond Resolution, in such amounts as may be
necessary to make the mandatory sinking fund redemption payments or payments at maturity. if any,
of any term Bonds required to be paid during such calendar year.
Amounts in the Bond Redemption Account will be used solely for the purchase or redemption of
the term Bonds (including all Series 1989 Bonds) payable therefrom. The Agency may at any time
purchase any of such term Bonds at prices not greater than the then redemption price of such term
Bonds. If the term Bonds are not then redeemable, the Agency may purchase such term Bonds at
prices not greater than the redemption price of such term Bonds on the next ensuing redemption date.
The Agency will be obligated to use any moneys in the Bond Redemption Account for the redemption
prior to maturity of such term Bonds in such manner and at such times as the term Bonds may be
subject to mandatory redemption. If, by the application of moneys in the Bond Redemption Account.
the Agency will purchase or call for redemption in any year term Bonds in excess of the applicable
pa)'ment or redemption requirements for such year, such excess of term Bonds so purchased or
redeemed will be credited in .such manner and at such times as the Executive Director of the Agency
may determine over the remaining payment dates.

:"/0 distinction or preference will exist in the use of the moneys on deposit in the Redevelopment
Trust Fund for payment into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Bond Redemption
Account, since such accounts are on a parity with each other as to payment from the Redevelopment
Trust Fund.
(3) Tax Increment Hevenues will next be used, to the full extent necessary and immediately upon
receipt, for deposit into the "Debt Service Reserve Account" established under the Bond Resolution to
make up the difTerence, if any, between the amount on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account
(including any reserve account insurance policy or reserve account leUer of credit, as described below)
and the aggregate Debt Service Reserve Requirements (as hereinafter defined) for all outstanding
Bonds. However, no payments will be required to be made into the Debt Service Reserve Account
whenever and as long as the amount deposited therein (including any reserve account insurance policy
or reserve account letter of credit in accordance with the Bond Resolution) is equal to the aggregate
Debt Service Reserve Requirement for all outstanding Bonds.
In the event that any amounts are withdrawn from the Debt Service Reserve Account for
payments into the.> Interest Account, Principal Account 0r Bond Hedemption Account, such
withdrawals will be subsequently restored in the manner described in the previous paragraph from
the first Tax Increment Revenues or other available funds after all required payments have been made
into the Interest Account, Principal Account and Bond Redemption Account, including any
deficiencies for prior payments, unless the aggregate Debt Service Reserve Requirement is otherwise
restored by the reinstatement of the maximum limits of a reserve account insurance policy or reserve
account letter of credit.
(4) Tax Increment Revenues will next be used for the payment of any obligations issued by the
Agency pursuant to the Bond Resolution which obligations are payable from Tax Increment Revenues
on a subordinated basis to the Bonds.
(5) After making all required deposits and satisfactions of any and all deficiencies or other
obligations owed under the preceding paragraphs (1) through (4), the balance of any Tax Increment
Revenues may then be used by the Agency for any other lawful purpose.
For further information regarding the application of Tax Increment Revenues, see "APPE~DIX C
-SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE BOND RESOLL'TION."
Debt Service Reserve Account
The Bond Resolution establishes a Debt Service Reserve Account into which there is required to be
deposited or transferred:
i. All proceeds of both the Series 1989 Bonds and other Bonds required to be
deposited into the Debt Service Reserve Account by the terms of the Bond Resolution or
any supplemental resolution with respect to the proceeds of Bonds;
ti. All amounts required to be transferred to the Debt Service Reserve Account from
another fund or account under the Bond Resolution; and
iii. Any other available money or security which the Agency may determine to deposit
into the Debt Service Reserve Account.
The Bond Resolution provides that, with respect to the Series 1989 Bonds, the Agency will
establish in the Debt Service Reserve Account at the time of delivery of the Series 1989 Bonds and be
required to maintain therein at all times from available revenues an amount (the "Debt Service
Reserve Requirement") equal to the least of (i) maximum annual debt service due on all Series 1989
Bonds outstanding in any fiscal year of the Agency ("Fiscal Year"); (ii) 125% of the average annual
debt service due on all Series 1989 Bonds outstanding in all Fiscal Years; or (iti) 10% of the proceeds of
the Series 1989 Bonds, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

Report lIet forth in Appendix A.
RISK FACTORS
The ability of the Agoncy to make timely paymenb of principal of, redemption premium, if any,
and intl.lrOlOt on the Series 1989 Bonds depends llolely upon tho ability ofthe Agency to collect i1ufficienl
Tax Increment Revenues based upon real property in the Redevelopment Are~, toiother with earnini's
thoroon and other available revenues. The Serios 1989 Bonds are not general obligationll 8upportcd by
the rull flllith tmd credit of the Agency, the City, the County or any other political 8ubdi vision of the
State, but are payable solely from the Pledged Funds, None uf the Slale, tho County, the City, the
Agency or any other political subdivision of the State has any oblii6tion or powor under the Bond
Resolution or under Florida ll:iw to levy any taxes or any reiponsibllity thc:n:undtlf to appropri61te
funds from any other source whatsoever in order to pay debt service on the Series 1989 Rond. or to
avail or cure any default in any such payments.
E;xcept for the Debt Service Reserve Account, there ia no fund or account under the Bond
Resolution which is requited to contain amounts to make up for any deficiencies in the event of one I,lr
more dcfuults by the Agency in making payments of debt service un the Seri~!!I 1989 Bonds, und there
IS no source trom whIch the Interest Account or Principal Account will be replenished except the Tax
Increment Revenues and investment income on moneys in the Redevelopment Trust l"und. Despite
the study which the Agency has caused to be carried out as summarized in the Projection Report, there
can be no representation or assurance that the Agency will realize llufficient Tax Incromont Revenues
to pay, when due, all required payments of debt lIervice on the Series 1989 Bonds.
The Agency has determined to issue the Series 1989 Bond~ in their aggregate principal amount
based, in substantial part, on the Projection Report, which necefSsarily mukes certain assumptionlil and
projections. Failure of such assumptions and projections to be re",li~cd could result in t.he failure b~'
the Agency to collect sufficient Tax Increment Revenues to pay the principal of and interest on the
Series 1989 Bonds,
The Projection Report projects Tax Increment Revenues collected through 1999 and
distributed on or before January 1. 1994, but the Series 1989 Bonds will have a final maturity
in 2004. As noted in the discussion of debt service coverage under the caption "SECURITY
AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT l-'OR THE SERIES 1989 BONDS." any attempted application
or extension of the Projection Report's assu mptiona or projections beyond the .tated
projection period is outside the scope of the Projection Report and hal not been
contemplated by .uch Repol1.
The following paragraphs summarize some of the risks involved in a ~'IC)rida tax increment
financing of the type of the Series 1989 Bonds and describo some or the assumptions lIlnd projections
made in the Projection Report which, if not realized, eould result in insufficient Tax Increment
Revenues for the plllyment of the Series 1989 Bonds. Such summarie$ are not intended to be an
exhaustive list of risk factors in connection with the Series 1989 Bond:i. The Projection Report,
attached hereto as Appendix A, sets out in greater dotail the assumptions and projoctions discussed
herein and therein. The Projttction Report is an inlegr~1 plllrt of this Private PIl:lcemant ~1emorandum
and should be read in its entirety by the owners or potential purchasers of the Series 1989 Bonds.
Competition from Comparable Developments Outside the Redevelopment Area. The City'lS
growth strategy for the Redevelopment Arcti is being and will continuo to be pursued by other
communities outside the Redevelopment Area whose growth will not generlllto Tax Increment
Revenues for the payment of the Series 1989 Bonds. As lsummarized in the Projection Report,
in the event that a large number of condominium or rental projects are constructed ehsowhere

(.;3
in the City outside the Redevelopment Area or outside Dade County, the demand for
residential housing within the Redevelopment Area could be reduced, thereby leading 1,0 a
reduction in collections of Tax Increment Revenues
Failure of Timely Commencement, Completion or Occupancy of the Project or Comparable
Projects in the Redevelopment Area. The Projection Report sets forth certain assumptions
regarding the commencement and the completion of the Project and the anticipated occupancy
dates and rates for the Project and other residential and commercial projects in the
Redevelopment Area. As indicated under the caption "UTICA TION ," the commencement of
the Project could be delayed due to litigation over the Agency's taking by eminent domain of
portions of the real property required for the Project. Such delays could be material. Any
failure or delay in commencing or in completing the Project or any of such other projects, or
any failure or delay in achieving such occupancy rates, could have an adverse impact upon the
realization and collection of Tax Increment Revenues in the Redevelopment Area.
Adverse Business Developments Affecting Existing Commerclal and Residential Projects.
: Discussion of South Pointe Towel's. Woooy's on the Beach. \1aterial to be supplied from
Projection Report.]
Failure to Achieve Full Collection of Taxes. The Projection Report assumes collection by
the County and the City of 100% of property taxes due in the Redevelopment Area. Because
the City's municipal code limits its obligation to make payments to the Redevelopment Trust
Fund to those tax revenues actually received with respect to a given calendar year, any failure
by the City to achieve collections at the 100% rate would have an adverse impact on the receipt
of Tax Increment Revenues.
State, National and International Economic and Political Factors. Certain economic or
political developments, such as downturns in the State, national or international economy,
increased national or international barriers to tourism or trade or international currency
fluctuations could all adversely affect the continued development of the Redevelopment Area
or its attraction to local businesses of national and internationallourist traffic. The tourist
industry in particular is relatively unpredictable, subject to cyclical patterns and sensitive 1,0
fluctuations in international, national and local interest rates, levels of personal income and
employment. None of such developments can be certain of prediction or within the control of
the County, the City or the Agency, and any such development could adversely affect the
ability of the Agency 1,0 receive sufficient Tax Increment Revenues.
Reductions in Property Values. Numerous events could occur that would reduce the value
of real property within the Redevelopment Area, including natural disasters; public
acquisition of property within the Redevelopment Area by the State or political subdivisions
exercising their respective rights of eminent domain; or economic or demographic factors
beyond the control of the Agency or the taxpayers in the Redevelopment Area. Any or all of
such events could adversely affect the realization and collection of Tax Increment Revenues.
Impact of Additional Taxpayers or Increased Property Values Outside the Redevelopment
Area. Although the Projection Report indicates factors that would make unlikely 8 reduction
in County millage rates, the addition of significant numbers of new taxpayers or an increase of
property values outside the Redevelopment Area could result in an environment favorable to
the reduction of County millage rates that would, in turn, reduce collections of Tax Increment
Revenues.
Appeals of Assessments. State law allows taxpayers to dispute assessment valuations.
Various State, local, national and international economic conditions may influence a
taxpayer's willingness to make or forgo such an appeal. The statutory method for determining
Tax Increment Revenues uses a factor of 95%, due in part to an expectation of some such
-13-
f;4
appeals. Any volume of appeals in excess of stich a margin of error could, jf successful, result
in decreased collections of Tax Increment Revenues.
Adt,t'rse !-egislativl', Judicial or Administratil'l' Action. The State legislature, the
courts or an administrative agency with jurisdiction in the matter could cnact new laws or
regulations or interpret, amend, alter, change or modify the laws or regulations governing the
collection, distribution, definition or accumulation of ad valorem tax revenues generally, or
Tax Increment Revenues specifically, in a fashion that would adversely affect the ability of the
Agency to pay debt service on the Series 1989 Bonds,
TAX MA1'TERS
The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), includes requirements which the
Agency must continue to meet after the issuance of the Series 1989 Bonds in order that interest on the
SHies 1989 Bonds not be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes. The Agency's
failure to meet these requirements may cause interest on the Series ]989 Bonds to be included in gross
income for fl:decul incor:;e tax purposes retroactive to their date of issuance. The Agency has
co\'enanted in the Bond Resolution to take the actions required by the Code in order to maintain the
excl usion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Series] 989 Bonds.
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, assuming continuing compliance by the Agency with the tax
covenants referred to above, under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, interest
on the Series 1989 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, except for
interest on any Series 1989 Bonds for any period during which such Series 1989 Bond is held by a
"substantial user" of the Project or a "related person" within the meaning of Section ]47(a) of the Code.
However, interest on the Series 1989 Bonds is an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal
alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations, Bond Counsel is further of the
opinion that the Series ]989 Bonds and the interest thereon are exempt from taxation under the laws
of the State of Florida, except as to estate taxes and taxes imposed by Chapter 220, Florida Statutes, on
interest, income or profits on debt obligations owned by corporations as defined therein.
Except as described above, Bond Counsel will express no opinion regarding the federal income tax
consequences resulting from the ownership of, receipt or accrual of interest on, or disposition of the
Series 1989 Bonds. Prospective purchasers of Series 1989 Bonds should be aware that the ownership
of Series 1989 Bonds may result in other collateral federal tax consequences, including (i) the denial of
a deduction for interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry Series 1989 Bonds
or, in the case of a financial institution, that portion of the owner's interest expense allocable to
interest on a Series 1989 Bond, (ii) the reduction of the loss reserve deduction for property and casualty
insurance companies by 15% of certain items, including interest on Series 1989 Bonds, (iii) for taxable
years beginning before 1992, the inclusion of interest on Series] 989 Bonds in "modified alternative
minimum taxable income" for purposes of the environmental tax imposed on corporations, (iv) the
inclusion of interest on Series 1989 Bonds in the earnings of certain foreign corporations doing
business in the United States for purposes of a branch profits tax, (v) the inclusion of interest on Series
1989 Bonds in the passive income subject to federal income taxation of certain Subchapter S
corporations with Subchapter C earnings and profits at the close of the taxable year and (vi) the
inclusion in gross income of certain Social Security and Railroad Retirement benefits by reason of
receipt of interest on the Series 1989 Bonds.
On April ll, 1989, Representative Dan Rostenkowski, Chairman of the House Ways and Means
Committee, introduced H.R. 1761. For taxable years beginning after ]989, H.R. 1761 would take into
account in computing a corporation's alternative minimum tax 100% of certain amounts. such as
interest on the Series 1989 Bonds, included in earnings and profits but otherwise excluded from gross
income, instead of75% under current law.

approximately 60% of such property must be acquirod through eminent domuin proceedinill. On

within the Project area) filed an answor in the Agency's ominent domain uction, contestini the
Agency's right to such a taking by eminent domain. Ownerl:llind interested per:sonll of other pr'i vawly
owned parcels within the proposed Project Are expected Lo file answers in two other ominent domain
actions on or about July 3, 1989, and such owners and interested per$ons may also dilipute the
Agency's eminent. domain riihts with respect to their propertieli. The Agency believe>> that it has lhe
power to take the subject properties by eminent domain and believes that such power will be upheld by
the courts. The Agency further believes that it will be capable of making any pnyments of adjudicated
purchase prieea or such parcels under eminent domain. However, even if the Agency is ulLlmlitely
successful, because of the size and the location of the parcels in dispute, such eminent domain
litigation could materially delay the commencoment of all or a significant portion of the Project and,
con.equantly, the completion of the Project l:md the Project's 41biJity to generate Tax Increment
Rovenues to be collected by the Agency for the repayment ofthe Series 1989 Bonds.
Other Uti,ation
The Agency is currently a party to two lawsuits arising out of contractual di!!lputes. The fil'St., filed
in November 1985, arises out of a lease, approved by the Agency, between the City and the developer
of the Miami Beach Marina. The developer of tho Marina is S1eekini damagos in the amount of $21
million for the City's alleged breach of its obligations under the leue. The Agency's involvument in
the dispute has been limited to itll initial approval of the leasing arrangements between thl: City and
the developer, and the Agency believes that, even in the event that the plaintiff is ultimately
successful, the possibility of any assessment of significant damages against the Agency is remote.
Further, thc action is currently the subject of a proposed iettlement agreement between the developer
and a third-party buyer, and the Areney has reason to believe that, out of such agreement, the actioni
may be dismissed with respect to all purties on or about September I, 1989. 'rhe second law15uit is a
1982 action against the Agoney by a developer seeking a declaratory judgment 41nd monetary damagos
for breach of contract. Although the Cily was also originally a party to this action, the City was
dismissed from the case and a judgment in the amount of approximately $3 65 million was entered
against the Agency by the circuit court in 1984. Subsoquent to the entry of such judgment, the Agency
and the developer entered into a settlement a.greement whereby, among other t.hinglil, the developer
would receive a credit against. the purchase price of lllnd to be developed within the Redevelopment
Area to the extent or the outstanding balance or the principal amfJunt of the judgment, toget.her with
interest thereon. The settlement agreoment is currontly being carriod out by the parties, and the
unsatisfied amount of the 1984 judgment is '... 8& of the date of thia Private
Placement Memorandum. There is no other litigation pending or threatened which would havo a

I. GENERAL INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA
The City of Miami Beach (the "City") comprises seven square miles of land area and ten square
miles of water area located in Dade County, Florida. The weather provides the City with an average
year, round temperature of75 degrees Fahrenheit, 24 degrees Celsius. The City is linked to mainland
Metropolitan Dade County (the "County") by four causeways - John F. Kennedy Causeway at the
northern end, Julia Tuttle Causeway at the mid-point and the Venetian and \facArthur Causeways at
the southern end.
The City experienced a building and population boom during the] 920'5, ] 930's and] 940's. This
"boom" is preserved via the Art Deco District, a one square-mile neighborhood bounded by 6th and
23rd Streets to the north and south, and by Alton Road and Ocean Drive at its easUwest boundaries.
This area received official designation as a historic district when listed in the National Register of
Historic Places in 1979. Hundreds of apartments, hotels and retail stores feature the classic
architecture of the Art Deco style. The renovation and preservation of these buildings has been
undertaken mainly by private investors.
In the mid-1950's, national air carriers began to provide comprehensi ve service to the area and the
City evolved as a major convention destination. During the] 970's, the City was host to both the
Democratic and Republican National Conventions. Currently, the Miami Beach Convention Center is
undergoing renovations increasing the existing facility to ].] million square feet. Ground was broken
for the expansion of the Center on March 26, ] 986, and construction on the site is expected to be
completed in . The $80 million renovation will modify the Center into four equal-size halls of
125,000 square feet, each housing meeting rooms, concession and catering areas and loading docks.
Each hall will have its own canopied entrance, allowing the facility to house four events at a time or
one large event. An open 8,000-square foot area in the center of the second floor crossover walkway
will transport delegates and conventioneers through elevators, escalators and stairs, and features a
circular restaurant and cocktail lounge, providing a 360-degree view of the entire floor space below.
The spirit of renewal and transition can be seen throughout the City. In the South Pointe
Redevelopment Area, in addition to the Art Deco District renovations, public projects include the
$3,5 million South Pointe Park and $9.8 million in infrastructure improvements. (Other projects
located just north of the South Pointe Redevelopment Area include construction of an $18 million
Police and Courts Facility and the revitalization of the Lummus Park area including a continuation of
a beachfront promenade.) Private development in the South Pointe Redevelopment Area includes the
Crawdaddy's Restaurant located in the City's South Pointe Park, Penrod's restaurant located in Pier

complex.
In the City's middle area, puhlic projects include the expansion uf the \tiami Beach Convention
Center, the $22 million renovation of the Theater of the Performing Arts, as well as the Garden Center
and Conservatory expansion, the 21st Street Community Center and Walkway, Island View Park and
the Beachfront Park and Promenade, a 1.8 mile long linear park featuring the natural woods which
stretch along the oceanfront from 21st to 46th Streets. Private development in the area includes the
South Florida Art Center located on Lincoln Road Mall, additions and renovations to the Alexander
Hotel, the Fontainebleau Hilton, the Doral Hotel and the Eden Roc Hotel which are all currently in
progress or completed, and a planned convention center host hotel which is in the site development
stage.
In the City's north area, a joint project between the State of Florida and the City for the expansion
o( the North Shore Open Space Park is currently under way. The project includes the acquisition of
privately owned parcels which block access to the public beaches and the expansion to the north of a

All Tax Increment Revenues received by the Agency from the City or the County on deposit in the
Trust Fund will be disposed of by the Agency only in the following manner:
(1) Tax Increment Revenues will first be used, to the full extent necessary, for
deposit with the Trustee into the Interest Account in the the Sinking Fund, immediately
upon receipt of such Trust Fund Revenues, of such sums as will be sufficient to pay the
interest becoming due on the Bonds during such calendar year; provided, however, that

advise the Paying Agent of the amount of any deficiency in the amount so transferred so
that the Paying Agent may give appropriate notice required to provide for the payment of
such deficiency from any Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of
Credit on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account.
(2) (a) Tax Increment Revenues will next be used, to the full extent necessary, for
deposit with the Trustee in the Principal Account in the Sinking Fund, immediately upon
receipt of such Tax Increment Revenues of such sums as will be sufficient to pay the
principal amount ofScrial Bonds which will mature during such calendar year: provided,
however, that such deposit for principal will not be required to be made into the Principal
Account to the extent that money on deposit therein is sufficient for such purpose.
The Trustee will, on the business day prior to each principal payment date, transfer
to the Paying Agent moneys in an amount equal to the principal due on such principal
payment date or will advise the Paying Agent of the amount of any deficiency in the
amount so transferred so that the Paying Agent may give appropriate notice required to
provide for the payment of such deficiency from any Reserve Account Insurance Policy or
Reserve Account Letter of Credit on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account.
(bl Tax Increment Revenues will next be used, to the full extent necessary, for
deposit with the Trustee into the Bond Redemption Account in the Sinking Fund
immediately upon receipt of such Tax Increment Revenues, of such Amortization
Requirements as may be required for the payment of the Term Bonds payable from the
Bond Redemption Account, during such calendar year.
The moneys in the Bond Redemption Account will be used solely for the purchase or
redemption of the Term Bonds payable therefrom. The Agency may at any time purchase
any of such Term Bonds at prices not greater than the then redemption price of such
Term Bonds. If the Term Bonds are not then redeemable, the Agency may purchase such
Term Bonds at prices not greater than the redemption price of such Term Bonds on the
next ensuing redemption date. The Agency will be mandatorily obligated to use any
moneys in the Bond Redemption Account for the redemption prior to maturity of such
Term Bonds at such times as the same are subject to mandatory redemption. If, by the
application of moneys in the Bond Redemption Account, the Agency will purchase or call
for redemption in any year Term Bonds in excess of the Amortization Requirements for
such year, such excess of Term Bonds so purchased or redeemed will be credited in such
manner and at such times as the Executive Director determines over the remaining
payment dates.
No distinction or preference will exist in the use of the moneys on deposit in the Trust
Fund for payment into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Bond
Redemption Account, such accounts being on a parity with each other as to payment from
the Trust Fund.
(3) Tax Increment Revenues will next be used, to the full extent necessary, for
deposit with the Trustee into the Debt Service Reserve Account immediately upon receipt

Outstanding, and, provided, further, that no payments will be required to be made into
the Debt Service Reserve Account whenever and as long as the amount deposiwd therein
(including any Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit)
equals the Reserve Account Requirement for the Bonds Outstanding.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in lieu of or in substitute for the required
deposits of Tax Increment Revenues (including existing deposits of Tax Increment
Revenues) into the Debt Service Reserve Account, the Agency may cause to be deposited
into the Debt Service Reserve Account a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or a Reserve
Account Letter of Credit for the benefit of the holders of the Bonds Outstanding in an
amount equal to the difference between the Reserve Account Requirement for the Bonds
Outstanding and the sums then on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account, if any,
which Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit will be
payable or available to be drawn upon, as the case may be, (upon the giving of notice as
required thereunder) on any Interest Payment Date on which a deficiency exis~'i which
c~nn(01 be cured by moneys in any other fund or account held pursuant to the Hond
Resolution and available for such purpose. If a disbursement is made under the Reserve
Account Insurance Policy or the Reserve Account Letter of Credit, the Agency will be
obligated to either reinstate the maximum limits of such Reserve Account Insurance
Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit immediately following such disbursement or
to deposit into the Debt Service Reserve Account from the Tax Increment Revenues, as
provided in the Bond Resolution, funds in the amount of the disbursements made under
such Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit, or a
combination of such alternatives as will equal the Reserve Account Requirement for the
Bonds Outstanding.
Moneys in the Debt Service Reserve Account will be used only for the purpose of
making payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds when the moneys in the Trust
Fund or any other fund or account held pursuant to the Bond Resolution and available for
such purpose are insufficient therefor.
Any moneys in the Debt Service Reserve Account in excess of the Reserve Account
Requirement for the Bonds Outstanding may, in the discretion of the Agency, be
transferred to and deposited in the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Bond
Redemption Account as the Agency at its option may determine.
The Debt Service Reserve Account will be valued at least once in each Fiscal Year
and the value of securities on deposit therein will be the lower of par, or if purchased at
other than par, amortized value. Amortized value, when used with respect to securities
purchased at a premium above or a discount below par, will mean the value at any given
date obtained by dividing the total premium or discount at which such securities were
purchased by the number of interest payment dates remaining to maturity on such
securities after such purchase and by multiplying the amount so calculated by the
number of interest payment dates ha ving passed since the date of purchase; and (i) in the
case of securities purchased at a premium, by deducting the product thus obtained from
the purchase price, and (ii) in the case of securities purchased at a discount, by adding the
product thus obtained to the purchase price.
(4) Tax Increment Revenues will next be used for the payment of any subordinated
obligations hereafter issued by the Agency in accordance with Lhe Bond Resolution,
which subordinate obligations will have such lien on the Tax Increment Revenues as the
Agency determines in the proceedings authorizing the issuance of such subordinated
obligations.
C-9

(5) Thereafter, the balance of any Tax Increment Rpvenues remaining in the Trust
Fund will, subject to the lax covenants of the Agency under the B(}nd Resolution, bl' used
by the Agency for any lawful purposes. provided, however, that none of such Tax
Increment Revenues will ever be used for the purposes provided in this paragraph (5)
unless all payments required in paragraphs (I) through (41 above, including any
deficiencies for prior payments and any amounts dues to the issuer of any Reserve
Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Leller of Credit, have been made in ful1to
the date of such use.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in the Bond Resolution to the contrary,
failure to make the scheduled payments specified therein wil1 not constitute a breach of the Agency's
obligations under the Bond Resolution so long as, on the date that any interest or principal payment is
due on the Bonds, monies sufficient to make such payment are on deposit in the Interest Account or
Principal Account or the Bond Redemption Account, as the case may be.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in the Bond Resolution to the contrary, if
an). alIlount applied to the paymentofprincipal of and premium, Ifany, and interest on the Bonds that
would have been paid from an account in the Sinking Fund, is paid instead under a Credit Facility or a
Liquidity Facility, amounts deposited in such relevant account may be paid, to the extent required, to
the issuer of the Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility, having therefore made said corresponding
payment.
E. Rebate Fund There is created and established under the Bond Resolution, the "Rebate Fund"
which fund will be maintained with the Trustee separate and apart from all other funds and accounts
of the Trustee or the Agency. Notwithstanding anything in the Bond Resolution to the contrary, the
Agency will transfer or cause to be transferred the amounts required to be transferred in order to
comply with the arbitrage rebate covenants contained in a certificate to be executed and delivered by
the Agency in connection with the issuance of each Series of Bonds. The Agency will make or cause to
be made payments from the Rebate Fund of amounts required to be deposited therein to the lJnited
States of America in the amounts and at the times required by such arbitrage rebate covenants. The
Agency covenants for the benefit of the Bondholders that it will comply with the requirements of the
arbitrage rebate covenants. There will be excluded from the pledge and lien of the Bond Resolution
the Rebate Fund, together with all moneys and securities from time to time held therein and all
investment earnings derived therefrom. The Agency will not be required to comply with the
requirements of this section in the event that the Agency obtains an opinion of nationally recognized
bond counsel that (i) such compliance is not required in order to maintain the exclusion from gross
income for Federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and/or (ii) compliance with some other
requirement is necessary to maintain the exclusion from gross income for Federal income tax purposes
of interest on the Bonds.
F. Investment of Funds. The Trust Fund, the Sinking Fund, including the Interest Account,
Principal Account, Bond Redemption Account and Debt Service Reserve Account and the Cost of
Issuance Fund and all other special funds (other than the Rebate Fund) created and established by the
Bond Resolution will constitute trust funds in favor of the Bondholders and will be invested at the
direction of the Agency as provided in this section.
Moneys on deposit in the Trust Fund, Interest Account, Principal Account, Bond Redemption
Account and Cost oflssuance Fund may be invested in Permitted Investments maturing not later than
the dates on which such moneys will be needed for the purposes of such fund or account.
Moneys on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Account may be invested in Permitted Investments
maturing not later than the final maturity of any of the Bonds.
All income and earnings received from the investment and reinvestment of moneys in the Interest
Account, the Principal Account and the Bond Redemption Account in the Sinking Fund will be
C-IO
9:1
rewined in the respective accounts and applied as a credit a~uinst the obligation of the Agency to
transfer moneys from the Trust Fund to such accounts pursuant to the Bond Resolution.
All income and earnings received from the investment and reinvestment of moneys in the Debt
Service Reserve Account in the Sinking Fund will be retained in the Debt Service Reserve Account
and applied as a credit against the obligation of the Agency to transfer moneys from the Trust Fund to
such account, unless the amount in such account exceeds the Reserve Account Requirement, in which
event such excess may be applied in the manner set forth for excess amounts in the Debt Service
Reserve Account, as described in the Bond Resolution.
All income and earnings received from the investment and reinvestment of moneys in the Cost of
Issuance Fund will be transferred to the Trust Fund.
For the purpose of investing or reinvesting, the Agency and Trustee may commingle moneys in the
funds and accounts created and established under the Bond Resolution (other than the Rebate Fund)
in order to achieve greater investment income; provided that the Agency and Trustee will separately
account for the amounts so commingled. The amounts required to be accounted for in each of the funds
and accounts designated in the Bond Resol utian (other than the Rebate Fund) may be deposited in a
single bank account provided that adequate accounting procedures are maintained to reflect and
control the restricted allocations of the amounts on deposit therein for the various purposes of such
funds and accounts as provided in the Bond Resolution.
G. Issuance of Other Obligations Payable out of Trust Fund Revenues. Except upon the
conditions and in the manner provided in the Bond Resolution, the Agency will not issue any other
obligations payable from the Pledged Funds, nor voluntarily create or cause to be created any debt,
lien, pledge, assignment, encumbrance or any other charge having priority to or being on a parity with
the lien of the Bonds issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution and the interest thereon, upon any of the
Pledged Funds; provided that the Agency may enter into agreements with issuers of Credit Facilities
and Liquidity Facilities which involve liens on Tax Increment Revenues on a parity with that of the
Series of Bonds or portion thereof which is supported by such Credit Facilities or Liquidity Facilities.
Any other obligations, in addition to the Bonds authorized by the Bond Resolution or additional parity
Bonds issued under the terms, restrictions and conditions contained in the Bond Resolution, will
provide that such obligations are junior, inferior and subordinate in al1 respects to the Bonds issued
pursuant to the Bond Resolution as to lien on and source and security for payment from the Tax
Increment Revenues and in al1 other respects. Nothing in the Bond Resolution will be deemed to
prohibit the Agency from entering into currency swaps or other arrangements for pledging interest
rates on any indebtedness.
H. Issuance of Additional Parity Bonds. No additional parity Bonds, payable on a parity with
Bonds issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution out of Pledged Funds will be issued after the issuance of
an)" Bonds pursuant to the Bond Resolution unless the fol1owing, among other conditions, are complied
with:
(1) The Agency must be current in all deposits into the various funds and accounts
and al1 payments theretofore required to have been deposited or made by it under the
provisions of the Bond Resolution and the Agency must be currently in compliance with
the covenants and provisions of the Bond Resolution and any supplemental resolution
hereafter adopted for the issuance of additional parity Bonds; unless upon the issuance of
such additional parity Bonds the Agency will be in compliance with all such covenants
and provisions.
(2) The amount of the Tax Increment Revenues during the immediately preceding
Fiscal Year or any twelve (12) consecutive months selected by the Agency of the
eighteen (18) months immediately preceding the issuance of said additional parity
Bonds, as certified by an independent certified public accountant, were at least equal to
one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Maximum Annual Debt Service on (1) the
C-ll
\
\
~J2
Bonds originally issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution and then Outstanding, (2) any
additionul purity Honds therdofore issued and then Outstanding, and (3) the additional
parity Bonds then proposed to be issued.
(3) The Agency need not comply with subparagraph (2) above in the issuance of
additional parity Bonds if and to the extent the Bonds to be issued are refunding Bonds,
that is, delivered in lieu of or in substitution for Bonds originally issued under the Bond
Resolution or previously issued additional parity Bonds, if the Agency causes to be
delivered a certificate of the Executive Director of the Agency selling forth (i) the
Maximum Annual Debt Service (A) with respect to the Bonds of all Series Outstanding
immediately prior to the date of authentication and delivery of such refunding Bonds,
and (8) with respect 10 the Bonds of all Series to be Outstanding immediately thereafter,
and (ij) that the Maximum Annual Debt Service set forth pursuant to (8) above is no
greater than that set forth pursuant to (A) above.
Simultaneously with the delivery of any Bonds issued pursuant to Sections (2) and (3) above for
the purpose of refunding any Bonds issueci under the Bone Rc::olution, the Agency may withdnm f,'om
the Sinking Fund amounts theretofore deposited which are allocable to the Bonds being refunded and
will transfer such amounts in accordance with the resolution providing for the issuance of the
refunding Bonds, provided that after such withdrawal the Agency will be in compliance with the
provisions of the Bond Resolution.
The term "additional parity Bonds" as used in the Bond Resolution will be deemed to mean
additional obligations evidenced by Bonds issued upon the provisions and within the limitations of
this subsection to finance Redevelopment Projects payable from the Pledged Funds on a parity with
Bonds originally authorized and issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution. Such Bonds will be deemed
to have been issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution the same as the Bonds originally authorized and
issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution and all of the covenants and other provisions of the Bond
Resolution (except as to details of such Bonds evidencing such additional parity obligations
inconsistent therewith), will be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the holders of any
Bonds originally authorized and issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution and the holders of any Bonds
evidencing additional obligations subsequently issued within the limitations of and in compliance
with this subsection. All of such Bonds, regardless of the time or times of their issuance will rank
equally with respect to their lien on the Pledged Funds and their sources and security for payment
therefrom without preference of any Bonds over any other.
The term "additional parity Bonds" as used in the Bond Resolution will not be deemed to include
bonds, notes, certificates or other obligations subsequently issued in accordance with the Bond
Resolution, the lien of which on the Pledged Funds is subject to the prior and superior lien on the
Pledged Funds of Bonds and the Agency will not issue any obligations whatsoever payable from the
Pledged Funds, which rank equally as to lien and source and security for their payment from such
Pledged Funds, with Bonds except in the manner and under the conditions provided in the Bond
Resolution.
I. Remedies. Any holder of Bonds issued under the provisions of the Bond Resolution or the
Trustee acting for such Bondholders, may either at law or in equity, by suit, action, mandamus or
other proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction, protect and enforce any and all rights under
the laws of the State, or granted and contained in the Bond Resolution, and may enforce and compel
the performance of all duties required by the Bond Resolution or by any applicable statutes, including
the Act, to be performed by the Agency or by any officer thereof. Nothing in the Bond Resolution,
however, will be construed to grant any Holder of such Bonds any lien on any property of the Agency,
except as provided in the Bond Resolution. No Holder of Bonds, however, will have any right in any
manner whatever to affect adversely, or prejudice the security or the Bond Resolution or to express any
right under the Bond Resolution except in the manner provided, and all proceedings at law or in equity
will be instituted and maintained for the benefit of all Holders of Bonds.
C-12

The "older or /folders of Bonds in an aggregate principal amount of more than twenty per centum
(2(,,"~) of Bonds issued under the Bond Resolution then Outstanding may by a duly executcd certificate
in ""riting request the Trustee to represent such Bondholders in any legal proceedings for the
enfurcemcnt and protection of the rights of such Bondholders. Such certificate must be executed by
such Bondholders or their duly authorized attorneys or representatives, and must be filed in the office
of the Executive Director.
J. Enforcement of Collections. The Agency will diligently enforce and collect the Tax Increment
Re\'cnucs and will take all steps, actions and proceedings for the enforcement and collection of such
Tax Increment Revenues to the full extent permitted or authorized by applicable laws, including the
Act. All such Tax Increment Revenues will, as collected, be held in trust to be applied as provided in
the Bond Resolution and not otherwise.
K. Dischar~e and Satisfaction of Bonds. The covenants, liens and pledges entered into, created or
imposed pursuant to the Bond Resolution may be fully discharged and satisfied with respect to all or a
portion of the Bonds in anyone or more oflhc following ways:
(1) by paying the principal of and interest on such Bonds when the same become due
and payable; or
(2) by depositing in the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Bond
Redemption Account and/or in such other accounts which are irrevocably pledged to the
payment of Bonds and the Agency may hereafter create and establish by resolution,
certain moneys which together with other moneys lawfully available therefor, if any, will
be sufficient at the time of such deposit to pay when due the principal, redemption
premium, if any, and interest due and to become due on said Bonds on or prior to the
redemption date or maturity date thereof; or
(3) by (al depositing in the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Bond
Redemption Account and/or such other accounts which are irrevocably pledged to the
payment of Bonds as the Agency may hereafter create and establish by resolution,
moneys which together with other moneys lawfully available therefor when invested in
such Defeasance Obligations which are subject to redemption prior to their maturity
other than at the option of the holder thereof, will provide moneys which will be sufficient
to pay when due the principal, redemption premium if any, and interest due and to
become due on said Bonds on or prior to the redemption date or maturity date thereof.
Upon such payment or deposit in the amount and manner provided, Bonds will be
deemed to be paid and will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding for the purposes of the
Bond Resolution and all liability of the Agency with respect to said Bonds will cease,
terminate and be completely discharged and extinguished, and the Holders thereof will
be entitled for payment solely out of the moneys or securities so deposited; provided that
in the event said Bonds do not mature and are not to be redeemed within the next
succeeding sixty (60) days, the Agency will have given the Registrar irrevocable
instructions to give, as soon as practicable, a notice to the Holders of said Bonds by first-
class mail, postage prepaid, stating that the deposit of said moneys or Defeasance
Obligations has been made with an appropriate fiduciary institution acting as escrow
agent solely for the Holders of said Bond and other Bonds being defeased, and that said
Bonds are deemed to have been paid in accordance with this section and stating such
maturity or redemption date upon which moneys are to be available for the payment of
the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on said Bonds.
(4) As to Variable Rate Bonds, whether discharged and satisfied under the
provisions of subsection (I), (2) or (3) above, the amoun t required for the interest thereon
will be calculated at the maximum rate permitted by the terms of the provisions which
authorized the issuance of such Variable Rate Bonds; provided however, that if on any
C-13
9'1
date, as a result of such Variable Hate Bonds having borne interest at less than such
maximum rate for any period, the total amount of moneys and Defeasance Obligations on
deposit for the payment of interest on such Variable Rate Bonds is in excess of the total
amount which would have been required t.o be deposited on such date in respect of such
Variable Rate Bonds in order to fully discharge and satisfy such Bonds pursuant to the
provisions of this Section, the Agency may use the amount of such excess free and clear of
any trust, lien, security interest, pledge or assignment securing said Variable Rate Bonds
or otherwise existing under the Bond Resolution.
(5) Notwithstanding any of the provisions of the Bond Resolution to the contrary,
Put Bonds and Extendible Maturity Bonds may only be fully discharged and satisfied
either pursuant to subsection (1) above or by depositing in the Interest Account, the
Principal Account and the Bond Redemption Account, or in such other accounts which
are irrevocably pledged to the payment of the Put Bonds as the Agency may hereafter
create and establish by resolution, moneys which together with moneys lawfully
available therefor, if any, will be sufficient at the time of such deposit to pay when due
th~ maximum amount of principal of and redemption premium, if any, and interest on
such Put Bonds and Extendible Maturity Bonds which could become payable to the
Holders of such Bonds upon the exercise of any options provided to the Holders of such
Bonds; provided however, that if, at the time a deposit is made pursuant to this
subsection (5), the options originally exercisable by the Holder of a Put Bond are no
longer exercisable, such Bond will not be considered a Put Bond and Extendible Maturity
Bond for purposes of this subsection (5).
(6) Notwithstanding the foregoing, all references to the discharge and satisfaction of
Bonds will include the discharge and sa lisfaction of any issue of Bonds, any portion of an
issue of Bonds, any maturity or maturities of an issue of Bonds, any portion of a maturity
of an issue of Bonds or any combination thereof, provided that the provisions of this
subsection (6) will not affect the requirements regarding Put Bonds and Extendible
Maturity Bonds set forth in subsection (5).
In the event that the principal and redemption price, if applicable, and interest due
on the Bonds will be paid by the issuer of a Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility pursuant
to the terms thereof, the assignment and pledge created hereunder and all covenants,
agreements and other obligations of the Agency to the Bondholders will continue to exist
and the issuer of such Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility will be subrogated to the
rights of such Bondholders.
(7) If any portion of the moneys deposited for the payment of the principal of and
redemption premium, if any, and interest on any portion of Bonds is not required for such
purpose, the Agency may use the amount of such excess free and clear of any trust, lien,
security interest, pledge or assignment securing said Bonds or otherwise existing under
the Bond Resolution.
Modification or Amendment.
Except as otherwise provided in the second paragraph below, no adverse material modification or
amendment of the Bond Resolution, or of any resolution amendatory hereof or supplemental hereto,
may be made without the consent in writing of (i) the Holders of more than ruty per centum (50%) in
aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding or (ii) in case less than all of the several
Series of Bonds then Outstanding are affected by the modification or amendment, the Holders of more
than nfty per centum (50%) in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds of each Series so affected and
Outstanding at the time such consent is given; provided, however, that no modification or amendment
may permit a change in the maturity of such Bonds or a reduction in the rate of interest thereon, or
affecting the promise of the Agency to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds, as the same

mature or become due, from the Pledged Funds, or reduce the pcrcenl.c1gc of Holders of Bonds required
above for such modification or amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all the Bonds.
For the purposes of this section, to the extent any Series of Bonds is secured by a Credit Facility or
Liquidity Facility, then the consent of the issuer of the Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility will
constitute the consent of the Holders of such Series.
The Bond Resolution may be amended, changed, modified and altered without the consent of the
Holders of Bonds or any Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility: (a) to cure any ambiguity or formal
defect or omission in the Bond Resolution or in any supplemental resolutions or to correct or
supplement any provision contained in the Bond Resolution which may be defective or inconsistent
with any other provisions contained therein; or (b) to grant to or confer upon the Bondholders any
additional rights, remedies, powers, authority or security that may lawfully be granted to or conferred
upon the Bondholders; or (c) to add to the conditions, limitations and restrictions on the issuance of
Bonds under the provisions of the Bond Resolution, other conditions, limitations and restrictions to be
observed; or (d) to add to the covenants and agreements of the Agency in the Bond Resolution other
C0\Cnants and agreements thereafter to be observed by the Agency or to surrender any right or power
re,;.erved to or conferred upon the Agency; or (e) to permit the issuance of Bonds, the interest on which
is intended to be excludible from gross income for Federal income tax purposes under the Code to the
Holders thereof in coupon form, if as a condition precedent to the adoption of such supplemental
resolution, there is delivered to the Agency an opinion of counsel of recognized standing relating to
municipal bonds to the effect that the issuance of Bonds in coupon form is then permitted by law and
that the issuance of such Bonds in coupon form would not cause interest on such Bonds to be included
in gross income for Federal income tax purposes under the Code to the Holders thereof; or (1) to permit
the Agency to issue Bonds the interest on which is not excludible from gross income for Federal income
tax purposes under the Code to the Holders thereof; or (g) to qualify the Bonds or any of the Bonds for
registration under the Securities Act of] 933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended; or (h) to qualify the Bond Resolution as an "indenture" under the Trust Indenture Act of
1939, as amended; or (i) to make such changes as may be necessary to adjust the terms of the Bond
Resolution so as to facilitate the issuance of Variable Rate Bonds, Capital Appreciation Bonds, Capital
Appreciation and Income Bonds, Put Bonds, Extendible Maturity Bonds, Balloon Bonds, Interim
Bonds and such other Bonds as may be marketable from time to time; or (j) to permit Bonds to be
issued in book entry form with or without physical bonds; or (k) to make such changes as may be
necessary to comply with the provisions of the Code relating to the exclusion of interest on the Bonds
from gross income; or (I) to make such changes as may evidence the right and interest under the Bond
Resolution of an issuer of a Credit Facility or a Liquidity Facility that secures any Series of Bonds.

Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have examined the Constitution and laws of the St~t€ of
Flor ida, part icu1ar ly the Flor ida Communi ty Redevelopment Act,
codified as Chapter l63, Part III, Florida Statutes, as amended,
tr.e Code of the City of Miami Beach, Florida (the "City") and the
Code of Metropolitan Dade County, Florida (the "County"), each as
amended (collectively, the "Act"), and Resolution No.
(the "Resolution") adopted by the Commission (the "Commission")
or the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") and other
proofs submitted, relative to the issuance and sale of
$

Series 1989
issued on the date hereof (the "Bonds") and matur ing in such
amounts and at such times, bearing interest and subject to re-
demption, all as described in the Private Placement Memorandum of
tr.e Agency, dated 1989, delivered in connection
with the issuance of the BondS: The Bonds are being issued to
f:nance the acquisition and clearing of certain property and the
construction of certain related public improvements in the City
(the "Project").
As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have
relied upon such certified proceedings and other certifications
of public officials furnished to us without undertaking to verify
the same by independent, investigation.
We have also examined one of said Bonds as executed and
authenticated. We assume that all other Bonds have been simi-
larly executed and authenticated.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
1. Such proceedings and proofs show lawful authority for
the issuance and sale of the Bonds by the Agency pursuant to the
Act.
2. The Resolution has been duly adopted by the Commission
and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Agency.
3. The Bonds have been duly authorized, executed and
delivered under the provisions of the Resolution to finance the
Project.
4. The Bonds are legal, valid and binding special obliga-
tions of the Agency payable solely from the funds pledged there-
for under the Resolution. The Agency has covenanted in the Reso-
lution to deposit into a redevelopment trust fund established
pursuant to the Act all revenues required to be paid to the
Agency by the County and the City under the Act (the "Trust Fund
Revenues") as the same are recei ved and has pledged the Trust
Fund Revenues (to the extent set forth in the Resolution) and all
moneys, securities and instruments held in the funds and accounts
established under the Resolution (other than the Rebate Fund) to
the payment of the principal of, interest and premium, if any, on
the Bonds. The full faith and credit of the Agency, the City or
the County is not pledged to the payment of the pr incipal of,
interest and premium, if any, on the Bonds and neither the
Agency, the City nor the County is obligated to levy any taxes
for the payment thereof.
5. Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and
court decisions, subject to the assumption stated below, interest
on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes, except for interest on any Bond for any period during
which such Bond is held by a "substantial user" of the Project or
a "related person" within the meaning of Section 147(f) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). However,
interest on the Bonds is an item of tax preference for purposes
of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and
corporations. We express no opinion regarding other federal tax
consequences resulting from the ownership of, receipt or accrual
of interest on, or disposition of the Bonds. In rendering the
opinion contained in this paragraph 5, we have assumed continuing
compliance with the requirements of the Code that must be met
after the issuance of the Bonds in order that interest on the
D-2
~'t'
Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency

Bonds not be included in gross income for federal income tax
purposes. The Agency I s failure to meet such requirements may
cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for
federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance
of the Bonds. The Agency has covenanted in the Re&olution to
comply with the requirements of the Code in order to maintain the
exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for
federal income tax purposes.
6. The Bonds and the interest thereon are exemp'i from
taxation under the laws of the State of Flor ida, except ],s to
estate taxes and taxes imposed by Chapter 220, Florida Stat~tes,
on interest, income or profits on debt obligations owned by cor-
porations, as defined in said Chapter 220, Florida Statutes.
It is to be understood that the rights of the holders of the
Bonds and the enforceability thereof and of the Resolution may be
subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other similar laws affecting creditors' rights heretofore or
hereinafter enacted and that their enforcement may be subject to
the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance wi th general
principles of equity.

organized and validly existing as a public body corporate and
politic under the Constitution and the laws of the State of

Increment Revenues collected for the security and payment of
the Bonds, except as provided in the Resolution, must be

agreement, or other instrument of which such counsel has
knowledge and which the Agency has adopted or to which the
Agency is a party, or, to such counsel's knowledge, does not

counsel's knowledge, threatened against the Agency (a) to
restrain or enjoin the issuance or delivery of any of the
Bonds or the collection of tax increment revenues pledged to

Placement Memorandum and without having undertaken to
determine independently the accuracy and completeness of the
statements contained in the Placement Memorandum, nothing has

to believe that the Placement Memorandum (except for
financial and statistical data included therein the
information contained under the caption "PRIVATE PLACEMENT,"

which no view need be expressed) contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material

of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, and without limiting the foregoing, such counsel
confirms, as of the date of such opinion, the accuracy of the

counsel for the Placement Agents and their participation in
certain meetings held in connection with the preparation of

statistical data included therein and except for Appendix A
as to which no view is expressed) contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the

references to it in the Placement Memorandum and to the use
and inclusion in the Placement Memorandum of the tax
increment revenue projection study (the "Projection Study")
set forth therein as Appendix A and (ii) as of the date
thereof, the Projection Report, with respect to the subject
matter and the stated scope thereof, did not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.
(5) The Agency's certificate, signed by the Chairman of
the Agency or his duly authorized designee and attested by
the Secretary of the Agency, or such other authorized
officials of the Agency acceptable to the Representative, and

state a material fact which should be included therein for
the purpose for which the Placement Memorandum is to be used,
or which is necessary to make the statements contained
therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were
made, not misleading.
(6) A certified copy of the Resolution.
(7) A no-arbitrage certificate in substance and form
satisfactory to Bond Counsel.
(8) Such additional legal opinions, certificates,
agreements, proceedings, instruments and other documents as
the Representative or Bond Counsel may reasonably request at
least five (5) business days before Closing to evidence
compliance by the Agency with legal requirements, the truth
and accuracy, as of the time of Closing, of the
representations of the Agency contained in this Placement
Agreement and due performance or satisfaction of the Agency,
at or prior to such time, of all agreements then to be
performed and all conditions then to be satisfied by the
Agency.
If there shall be failure to satisfy the conditions to the Placement

with, the distribution thereof, and we are not
participating, directly or indirectly, in an
underwriting of any such undertaking.

1933, as amended, of the Bonds.
(c) We have received, read and reviewed a copy of
the Preliminary Placement Memorandum.
(d) We (and our representatives) have had an
