MEMORANDUM
Date:November 21, 2001
To: City Council
From: Sarah E. Holecek, First Assistant City Attorney~;~
Re: Proposed Changes to the Seabury & Smith/Southgate Development Agreement for
Private Development
On your consent calendar as item 3(e) is a Resolution Fixing the Date for a Public Hearing
(December 11, 2001) on the Proposal to Amend the Development Agreement with Seabury &
Smith, Inc. and Southgate Development Company Inc.. As indicated by the comment, since the
City Council's approval of the Agreement on October 8, 2001, Seabury & Smith has requested
that the Council amend Section 5.1 of the Agreement regarding Insurance Requirements.
Specifically, the request is that the City change Section 5.1 by deleting subparagraph (d) and
changing (c) from "causing such damage..." to instead provide as follows: "causing such
damage to the extent Net Proceeds of insurance are available, or would have been available if
Seabury or the Developer had met their obligations to insure as set forth above." Additionally,
Seabury and Southgate have requested the addition of a clause making their obligations to
build the facility under the agreement null and void should they fail to negotiate a lease of the
subject property in the next six months.
I have included pages from the former, approved agreement and those pages including the
proposed revisions for comparison purposes. Regarding the changes to Section 5.1, as you
may know, Seabury & Smith had offices housed in the World Trade Center on September 11,
2001 and was a victim of those terrorist attacks. Terrorist acts are generally not insurable
casualties in the insurance industry. Thus, in the wake of their experience, Seabury is
requesting that the Agreement be amended to remove the unconditional obligation to rebuild
the structure in the event of destruction and provide that the structure shall be rebuilt only in the
event of destruction as the result of an insurable casualty. The decision whether to make these
amendments is essentially a 'business decision' by the Council considering its goals of tax-base
growth and job creation, as there is no legal requirement that the structure be rebuilt on an
unconditional basis under the Urban Renewal Plan or Urban Renewal Act.
As for the addition of section 12.9, "Contingency", Seabury and Southgate have yet to formalize a
lease of the subject property. However, the Agreement for Private Redevelopment with the City
contains obligations for construction on the subject property. However, each entity did not want
to have the obligations under the City's Development agreement outstanding if they could not
reach an agreement on the lease. Thus, Seabury and Southgate have requested the addition of
Section 12.9, which makes the agreement null and void should they fail to execute a lease
within 6 months.

(ii) Comprehensive general public liability insurance, including personal
injury liability for injuries to persons and/or property, including any injuries resulting
from the operation of automobiles or other motorized vehicles on or about the
Development Property, in the minimum amount for each occurrence and for each year of
$1,000,000.
(iii) Such other insurance, including worker's compensation insurance
respecting all employees of Seabury, in such amount as is customarily carded by like
organizations engaged in like activities of comparable size and liability exposure;
provided that Seabury may be self-insured with respect to all or any part of its liability for
worker's compensation.
(b) All insurance required by this Article V to be provided prior to the
Termination Date shall be taken out and maintained in responsible insurance companies
selected by Seabury or the Developer which are authorized under the laws of the State to
assume the risks covered thereby. Seabury or the Developer will deposit annually with
the City copies of a certificate or certificates or binders of the respective insurers stating
that such insurance is in force and effect. Unless otherwise provided in this Article V,
each policy shall contain a provision that the insurer shall not cancel or modify it without
giving written notice to Seabury or the Developer and the City at least ten (10) days
before the cancellation or modification becomes effective. Not less than five (5) days
prior to the expiration of any policy, Seabury or the Developer shall furnish the City
evidence satisfactory to the City that the policy has been renewed or replaced by another
policy conforming to the provisions of this Article V, or that there is no necessity therefor
under the terms hereof. In lieu of separate policies, Seabury or the Developer may
maintain a single policy, or blanket or umbrella policies, or a combination thereof, which
provide the total coverage required herein, in which event Seabury or the Developer shall
deposit with the City a certificate or certificates of the respective insurers as to the

-10-
Thirty days' notice of redemption shall be given by ordinary mail to the registered
owner of the Bond. Failure to give such notice by mail to any registered owner of the

on deposit at the place of payment.
If selection by lot within a maturity is required, the Registrar shall designate the
Bonds to be redeemed by random selection of the names of the registered owners of the
entire annual maturity until the total amount of Bonds to be called has been reached.
Section 7. Issuance of Bonds in Book-Entry Form: Replacement Bonds.
(a) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Resolution regarding
registration, ownership, transfer, payment and exchange of the Bonds, unless the Issuer
determines to permit the exchange of Depository Bonds for Bonds in the Authorized
Denominations, the Bonds shall be issued as Depository Bonds in denominations of the
entire principal amount of each maturity of Bonds (or, if a portion of said principal
amount is prepaid, said principal amount less the prepaid amount); and such Depository
Bonds shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. Payment of
semi-annual interest for any Depository Bond shall be made by wire transfer or New York
Clearing House or equivalent next day funds to the account of Cede & Co. on the interest
payment date for the Bonds at the address indicated in or pursuant to the Representation
Letter.
(b) With respect to Depository Bonds, neither the Issuer nor the Paying Agent
shall have any responsibility or obligation to any Participant or to any Beneficial Owner.
Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, neither the Issuer nor the Paying
Agent shall have any responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the
records of DTC or its nominee or of any Participant with respect to any ownership interest
in the Bonds, (ii) the delivery to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other
person, other than DTC or its nominee, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, (iii) the
payment to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other person, other than DTC or
its nominee, of any amount with respect to the principal of, premium, i,fany, or interest on
the Bonds, or (iv) the failure of DTC to provide any information or notification on behalf
of any Participant or Beneficial Owner.
The Issuer and the Paying Agent may treat DTC or its nominee as, and deem DTC
or its nominee to be, the absolute owner of each Bond for the purpose of payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bond, for the purpose of all other
matters with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to
o11-
such Bonds, and for all other purposes whatsoever (except for the giving of certain
Bondholder consents, in accordance with the practices and procedures of DTC as may be
applicable thereto). The Paying Agent shall pay all principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the Bonds only to or upon the order of the Bondholders as shown on the
Registration Books, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and
discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the Bonds to the extent so paid. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Resolution to the contrary (including without limitation those provisions relating to the
surrender of Bonds, registration thereof, and issuance in Authorized Denominations), as
long as the Bonds are Depository Bonds, full effect shall be given to the Representation
Letter and the procedures and practices of DTC thereunder, and the Paying Agent shall
comply therewith.
(c) Upon (i) a determination by the Issuer that DTC is no longer able to carry
out its functions or is otherwise determined unsatisfactory, or (ii) a determination by DTC
that the Bonds are no longer eligible for its depository services or (iii) a determination by
the Paying Agent that DTC has resigned or discontinued its services for the Bonds, the
Issuer shall (A) designate a satisfactory substitute depository as set forth below or, if a
satisfactory substitute is not found, (B) provide for the exchange of Depository Bonds for
replacement Bonds in Authorized Denominations.
(d) If the Issuer determines to provide for the exchange of Depository Bonds for
Bonds in Authorized Denominations, the Issuer shall so notify the Paying Agent and shall
provide the Registrar with a supply of executed unauthenticated Bonds to be so
exchanged. The Registrar shall thereupon notify the owners of the Bonds and provide for
such exchange, and to the extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the
transferee by the owners, the Bonds will be delivered in appropriate form, content and
Authorized Denominations to the Beneficial Owners, as their interests appear.
(e) Any substitute depository shall be designated in writing by the Issuer to the
Paying Agent. Any such substitute depository shall be a qualified and registered "clearing
agency" as provided in Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as mended.
The substitute depository shall provide for (i) immobilization of the Depository Bonds,
(ii) registration and transfer of interests in Depository Bonds by book eatries made on
records of the depository or its nominee and (iii) payment of principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on the Bonds in accordance with and as such interests may appear with
respect to such book entries.

Section 8. Registration of Bonds: Appointment of Registrar: Transfer: Ownership:
Delivery: and Cancellation.
(a) Registration. The ownership of Bonds may be transferred only by the

Registration Books kept for the registration and transfer of Bonds and only upon
surrender thereof at the office of the Registrar together with an assignment duly
executed by the holder or his duly authorized attorney in fact in such form as shall
be satisfactory to the Registrar, along with the address and social security number
or federal employer identification number of such transferee (or, if registration is to
be made in the name of multiple individuals, of all such transferees). In the event
that the address of the registered owner of a Bond (other than a registered owner
which is the nominee of the broker or dealer in question) is that of a broker or
dealer, there must be disclosed on the Registration Books the information
pertaining to the registered owner required above. Upon the transfer of any such
Bond, a new fully registered Bond, of any denomination or denominations
permitted by this Resolution in aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured
and unredeemed principal amount of such transferred fully registered Bond, and
bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date or dates shall be
delivered by the Registrar.
(c) Registration of Transferred Bonds. In all cases of the transfer of the
Bonds, the Registrar shall register, at the earliest practicable time, on the

of or on account of the principal of any such Bonds and the premium, if any, and

to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond, including the interest thereon,
to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(e) Cancellation. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall not be
reissued but shall be cancelled by the Registrar. All Bonds which are cancelled by
the Registrar shall be destroyed and a certificate of the destruction thereof shall be
fumished promptly to the Issuer; provided that if the Issuer shall so direct, the
Registrar shall forward the cancelled Bonds to the Issuer.
(f) Non-Presentment of Bonds. In the event any payment check
representing payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds is retumed to the
Paying Agent or if any bond is not presented for payment of principal at the
maturity or redemption date, if funds sufficient to pay such principal of or interest
on Bonds shall have been made available to the Paying Agent for the benefit of the
owner thereof, all liability of the Issuer to the owner thereof for such interest or
payment of such Bonds shall forthwith cease, terminate and be completely
discharged, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Paying Agent to hold such
~mds, without liability for interest thereon, for the benefit of the owner of such
Bonds who shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such ~mds for any claim of
whatever nature on his part under this Resolution or on, or with respect to, such
interest or Bonds. The Paying Agent's obligation to hold such funds shall continue
for a period equal to two years and six months following the date on which such
interest or principal became due, whether at maturity, or at the date fixed for
redemption thereof, or otherwise, at which time the Paying Agent, shall surrender
any remaining funds so held to the Issuer, whereupon any claim under this
Resolution by the Owners of such interest or Bonds of whatever nature shall be
made upon the Issuer.

outstanding Bond shall become mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Issuer shall at
the request of Registrar authenticate and deliver a new Bond of like tenor and mount as

mutilated Bond to Registrar, upon surrender of such mutilated Bond, or in lieu of and
substitution for the Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, upon filing with the Registrar evidence
satisfactory to the Registrar and Issuer that such Bond has been destroyed, stolen or lost
and proof of ownership thereof, and upon furnishing the Registrar and Issuer with
satisfactory indemnity and complying with such other reasonable regulations as the Issuer
or its agent may prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer may incur in connection
therewith.
Section 10. Record Date. Payments of principal and interest, otherwise than upon
full redemption, made in respect of any Bond, shall be made to the registered holder
thereof or to their designated agent as the same appear on the books of the Registrar on
the 15th day preceding the payment date. All such payments shall fully discharge the
obligations of the Issuer in respect of such Bonds to the extent of the payments so made.
Payment of principal shall only be made upon surrender of the Bond to the Paying Agent.
Section 11. Execution. Authentication and Delivery of the Bonds. Upon the
adoption of this Resolution, the Mayor and Clerk shall execute and deliver the Bonds to
the Registrar, who shall authenticate the Bonds and deliver the same to or upon order of
the Original Purchaser. No Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or shall be
entitled to any right or benefit hereunder unless the Registrar shall duly endorse and
execute on such Bond a Certificate of Authentication substantially in the form of the
Certificate herein set forth. Such Certificate upon any Bond executed on behalf of the
Issuer shall be conclusive evidence that the Bond so authenticated has been duly issued
under this Resolution and that the holder thereof is entitled to the benefits of this
Resolution.

the right to name a substitute, successor Registrar or Paying Agent upon giving prompt

expenses. The fund shall be known as the Sewer Revenue Operation and
Maintenance Fund (the "Operation and Maintenance Fund"). There shall be
deposited in the Operation and Maintenance Fund each month an amount sufficient

shall be the equal monthly amount necessary to pay in full the installment of
interest coming due on the next interest payment date on the then outstanding
Bonds and Parity Bonds plus the equal monthly amount necessary to pay in full the

that when the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall be not less than the
Reserve Fund Requirement, no further deposits shall be made into the Reserve
Fund except to maintain such level, and when the amount on deposit in the Reserve
Fund is greater than the balance required above, such additional amounts shall be
withdrawn and paid into the Revenue Fund. Money in the Reserve Fund shall be
used solely for the purpose of paying principal at maturity of or interest on the
Bonds and Parity Bonds for the payment of which insufficient money shall be
-25-

money in the Reserve Fund, the payments required above shall be continued or

of paying principal of or interest on the Bonds or Parity Bonds when there shall be
insufficient money in the Sinking Fund and the Reserve Fund; and to the extent not

used to pay principal of and interest on (including reasonable reserves therefor) any
other obligations which by their terms shall be payable from the revenues of the
System, but subordinate to the Bonds and Parity Bonds, and which have been
issued for the purposes of extensions and improvements to the System or to retire
the Bonds or Parity Bonds in advance of maturity, or to pay for extraordinary
repairs or replacements to the System.

at the close of each month may be deposited in any of the ~mds created by this
Resolution, may be used to pay for extraordinary repairs or replacements to the
System, or may be used to pay or redeem the Bonds or Parity Bonds any of them,
or for any lawful purpose.

accounts hereinbefore referred to in the order in which said funds are listed, on a
cumulative basis on the 10th day of each month, or on the next succeeding business day

compliance with the State Sinking Fund provided under Chapter 12C of the Code of Iowa,
1999, as amended or otherwise by a valid pledge of direct obligations of the United States
Government having an equivalent market value. All such interim investments shall
mature before the date on which the moneys are required for the purposes for which said
fund was created or otherwise as herein provided but in no event maturing in more than
three years in the case of the Reserve Fund. The provisions of this Section shall not be
construed to require the Issuer to maintain separate bank accounts for the funds created by

separate account but may be invested in conjunction with other funds of the City but
designated as a trust fund on the books and records of the City.

and shall be regarded as revenues of the System except earnings on investments of the
Project Fund shall be deposited in and expended from the Project Fund. Investments shall

good condition and operate it in an efficient manner and at reasonable cost.
(b) Sufficiency of Rates. On or before the beginning of each Fiscal Year the
Governing Body will adopt or continue in effect rates for all services rendered by
the System determined to be sufficient to produce Net Revenues for the next
succeeding Fiscal Year adequate to pay principal and interest requirements and
create reserves as provided in this Resolution but not less than 110 percent of the
principal and interest requirements of the Fiscal Year. No free use of the System by
the Issuer or any department, agency or instrumentality of the Issuer shall be
permitted except upon the determination of the Governing Body that the rates and
changes otherwise in effect are sufficient to provide Net Revenues at least equal to
the requirements of this subsection.
(c) Insurance. The Issuer shall maintain insurance for the benefit of the
bondholders on the insurable portions of the System of a kind and in an amount
which normally would be carried by private companies engaged in a similar kind of
business. The proceeds of any insurance, except public liability insurance, shall be
used to repair or replace the part or parts of the System damaged or destroyed, or if
not so used shall be placed in the Improvement Fund.
(d) Accounting and Audits. The Issuer will cause to be kept proper books
and accounts adapted to the System and in accordance with generally accepted
accounting practices, and will diligently act to cause the books and accounts to be
audited annually and reported upon not later than 180 days at~er the end of each
Fiscal Year by an Independent Auditor and will provide copies of the audit report to
-28-
the holders of any of the Bonds and Parity Bonds upon request. The holders of any
of the Bonds and Parity Bonds shall have at all reasonable times the right to inspect
the System and the records, accounts and data of the Issuer relating thereto.
(e) State Laws. The Issuer will faithfully and punctually perform all duties
with reference to the System required by the Constitution and laws of the State of
Iowa, including the making and collecting of reasonable and sufficient rates for
services rendered by the System as above provided, and will segregate the revenues
of the System and apply said revenues to the funds specified in this Resolution.
(f) Property_. The Issuer will not sell, lease, mortgage or in any manner
dispose of the System, or any capital part thereof, including any and all extensions
and additions that may be made thereto, until satisfaction and discharge of all of the
Bonds and Parity Bonds shall have been provided for in the manner provided in this
Resolution; provided, however, that this covenant shall not be construed to prevent
the disposal by the Issuer of property which in the judgment of its Governing Body
has become inexpedient or unprofitable to use in connection with the System, or if
it is to the advantage of the System that other property of equal or higher value be
substituted therefor, and provided further that the proceeds of the disposition of
such property shall be placed in a revolving fund and used in preference to other
sources for capital improvements to the System. Any such proceeds of the
disposition of property acquired with the proceeds of the Bonds or Parity Bonds
shall not be used to pay principal or interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds or for
payments into the Sinking or Reserve Funds.
(g) Fidelity Bond. The Issuer shall maintain fidelity bond coverage in
amounts which normally would be carded by private companies engaged in a
similar kind of business on each officer or employee having custody of funds of the
System.
(h) Additional Charges. The Issuer will require proper connecting charges
and/or other security for the payment of service charges.
(i) Budget. The Governing Body of the Issuer shall approve and conduct
operations pursuant to a system budget of revenues and current expenses for each
Fiscal Year. Such budget shall take into account revenues and current expenses
during the current and last preceding Fiscal Years. Copies of such budget and any
amendments thereto shall be provided to the holders of any of the Bonds upon
request.

Section 20. Remedies of Bondholders. Except as herein expressly limited the
holder or holders of the Bonds and Parity Bonds shall have and possess all the rights of
action and remedies afforded by the common law, the Constitution and statutes of the
State of Iowa, and of the United States of America, for the enforcement of payment of
their Bonds and interest thereon, and of the pledge of the revenues made hereunder, and of
all covenants of the Issuer hereunder.
Section 21. Prior Lien and Parity Bonds. The Issuer will issue no other Bonds or
obligations of any kind or nature payable from or enjoying a lien or claim on the property
or revenues of the System having priority over the Bonds or Parity Bonds.
Additional Bonds may be issued on a parity and equality of rank with the Bonds
with respect to the lien and claim of such Additional Bonds to the revenues of the System
and the money on deposit in the funds adopted by this Resolution, for the following
purposes and under the following conditions, but not otherwise:
(a) For the purpose of refunding any of the Bonds or Parity Bonds which
shall have matured or which shall mature not later than three months after the date
of delivery of such refunding Bonds and for the payment of which there shall be
insufficient money in the Sinking Fund and the Reserve Fund;
(b) For the purpose of refunding any Bonds, Parity Bonds or general
obligation bonds outstanding, or making extensions, additions, improvements or
replacements to the System, if all of the following conditions shall have been met:
(i) before any such Additional Bonds ranking on a parity are issued,
there will have been procured and filed with the City Clerk, a statement of
an Independent Auditor, independent financial consultant or a Consulting
Engineer, not a regular employee of the Issuer, reciting the opinion based
upon necessary investigations that the Net Revenues of the System for the
preceding Fiscal Year (with adjustments as hereinafter provided) were equal
to at least 1.25 times the maximum amount that will be required in any
Fiscal Year prior to the longest maturity of any of the Bonds or Parity Bonds
for both principal of and interest on all Bonds or Parity Bonds then
outstanding which are payable from the net earnings of the System and the
Additional Bonds then proposed to be issued.
For the purpose of determining the Net Revenues of the System for
the preceding Fiscal Year as aforesaid, the amount of the gross revenues for
-30-
such year may be adjusted by an Independent Auditor or a Consulting
Engineer, not a regular employee of the Issuer, so as to reflect any changes
in the mount of such revenues which would have resulted had any revision
of the schedule of rates or charges imposed at or prior to the time of the
issuance of any such Additional Bonds been in effect during all of such
preceding Fiscal Year.
(ii) the Additional Bonds must be payable as to principal and as to
interest on the same month and day as the Bonds herein authorized.
(iii) for the purposes of this Section, principal and interest falling due
on the first day of a Fiscal Year shall be deemed a requirement of the
immediately preceding Fiscal Year.
(iv) for the purposes of this Section, general obligation bonds shall
be refunded only upon a finding of necessity by the Governing Body and
only to the extent the general obligation bonds were issued or the proceeds
of them were expended for the System.
(v) for purposes of this Section, "preceding Fiscal Year" shall be the
most recently completed Fiscal Year for which audited financial statements
prepared by a certified public accountant are issued and available, but in no
event a Fiscal Year which ended more than eighteen months prior to the date
of issuance of the Additional Bonds.
Section 22. Disposition of Bond Proceeds: Arbitra~e Not Permitted. The Issuer
reasonably expects and covenants that no use will be made of the proceeds from the
issuance and sale of the Bonds issued hereunder which will cause any of the Bonds to be
classified as arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 148(a) and (b) of the Intemal
Revenue Code of the United States, and that throughout the term of said Bonds it will
comply with the requirements of said statute and regulations issued thereunder.
To the best knowledge and belief of the Issuer, there are no facts. or circumstances
that would materially change the foregoing statements or the conclusion that it is not
expected that the proceeds of the Bonds will be used in a manner that would cause the
Bonds to be arbitrage bonds. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer
hereby agrees to comply with the provisions of the Tax Exemption Certificate and the
provisions of the Tax Exemption Certificate are hereby incorporated by reference as part
of this Resolution. The Treasurer is hereby directed to make and insert all calculations
-31-
and determinations necessary to complete the Tax Exemption Certificate in all respects
and to execute and deliver the Tax Exemption Certificate at issuance of the Bonds to
certify as to the reasonable expectations and covenants of the Issuer at that date.
The Issuer covenants that it will treat as Yield Restricted any proceeds of the
Bonds remaining unexpended after three years from the issuance and any other funds
required by the Tax Exemption Certificate to be so treated. If any investments are held
with respect to the Bonds and Parity Bonds, the Issuer shall treat the same for the purpose
of restricted yield as held in proportion to the original principal amounts of each issue.
The Issuer covenants that it will exceed any investment yield restriction provided
in this Resolution only in the event that it shall first obtain an opinion of recognized bond
counsel that the proposed investment action will not cause the Bonds to be classified as
arbitrage bonds under Section 148(a) and (b) of the Intemal Revenue Code or regulations
issued thereunder.
The Issuer covenants that it will proceed with due diligence to spend the proceeds
of the Bonds for the purpose set forth in this Resolution. The Issuer further covenants
that it will make no change in the use of the proceeds available for the construction of
facilities or change in the use of any portion of the facilities constructed therefrom by
persons other than the Issuer or the general public unless it has obtained an opinion of
bond counsel or a revenue ruling that the proposed project or use will not be of such
character as to cause interest on any of the Bonds not to be exempt from federal income
taxes in the hands of holders other than substantial users of the project, under the
provisions of Section 142(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States, related
statutes and regulations.
Section 23. Additional Covenants. Representations and Warranties of the Issuer.
The Issuer certifies and covenants with the pumhasers and holders of the Bonds from time
to time outstanding that the Issuer through its officers, (a) will make such further specific
covenants, representations and assurances as may be necessary or advisable; (b) comply
with all representations, covenants and assurances contained in the Tax Exemption
Certificate, which Tax Exemption Certificate shall constitute a part of the contract

in the Tax Exemption Certificate); (d) pay to the United States, as necessary, such sums of
money representing required rebates of excess arbitrage profits relating to the Bonds; (e)
file such forms, statements and supporting documents as may be required and in a timely
manner; and (f) if deemed necessary or advisable by its officers, to employ and pay fiscal
agents, financial advisors, attorneys and other persons to assist the Issuer in such

designated redemption date, premiums thereon, if any that may be payable on the
