The Bonds due on December 30 in the years 2016, 2021 and 2024, are subject to mandatory redemption, in integral multiples of $5,000 selected by lot by the Bond Registrar, at a redemption price of par plus accrued interest to the redemption date, on December 30 of the years and in the principal amounts as follows: FOR TERM BONDS DUE ON DECEMBER 30, 2016 YEAR PRINCIPAL AMOUNT i 2015 $105,000 2016 (final maturity) 110,000 FOR TERM BONDS DUE ON DECEMBER 30, 2021 YEAR PRINCIPAL AMOUNT 2019 $120,000 2020 130,000 2021 (final maturity) 135,000 FOR TERM BONDS DUE ON DECEMBER 30, 2024 YEAR PRINCIPAL AMOUNT i 2022 $140,000 2023 150,000 2024 (final maturity) 150,000 Section 8. Redemption Procedure. The Bond Registrar shall proceed with mandatory redemption without further notice or direction from the City. For redemptions at the option of the City, the City shall, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter time period shall be satisfactory to the Bond Registrar), notify the Bond Registrar of such redemption date and of the principal amount and maturities of Bonds to be redeemed. For purposes of any redemption of less than all of the Bonds of a single maturity, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by lot not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Bond Registrar for the Bonds of such maturity by such method of lottery as the Bond Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate; provided, that such lottery shall provide for the -16- selection for redemption of Bonds or portions thereof so that any $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion of a Bond shall be as likely to be called for redemption as any other such $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion. The principal amounts of Bonds to be mandatorily redeemed in each year may be reduced through the earlier optional redemption thereof, with any partial optional redemptions of such Bonds credited against future mandatory redemption requirements in such order of the mandatory redemption dates as the City may determine. In addition, on or prior to the 60th day preceding any mandatory redemption date, the Bond Registrar may, and if directed by the Corporate Authorities shall, purchase Bonds required to be retired on such mandatory redemption date. Any such Bonds so purchased shall be cancelled and the principal amount thereof shall be credited against the mandatory redemption required on such next mandatory redemption date. The Bond Registrar shall promptly notify the City in writing of the Bonds or portions of Bonds selected for redemption and, in the case of any Bond selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Unless waived by the registered owner of Bonds to be redeemed, official notice of any such redemption shall be given by the Bond Registrar on behalf of the City by mailing the redemption notice by first -class mail not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to each registered owner of the Bond or Bonds to be redeemed at the address shown on the Bond Register or at such other address as is furnished in writing by such registered owner to the Bond Registrar. All official notices of redemption shall include the name of the Bonds and at least the information as follows: (1) the redemption date; (2) the redemption price; -17- (3) if less than all of the Bonds of a single series and maturity are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of any Bonds, the respective principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed; (4) a statement that on the redemption date the redemption price will become due and payable upon each such Bond or portion thereof called for redemption and that I interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date; and (5) the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price, which place of payment shall be the principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar. Prior to any redemption date, the City shall deposit with the Bond Registrar an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of all the Bonds or portions of Bonds which are to be redeemed on that date. Official notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the City shall default in the payment of the redemption price), such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Neither the failure to mail such redemption notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular registered owner, shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Bonds. Notice having been properly given, failure of a registered owner to receive such notice shall not be deemed to invalidate, limit or delay the effect of the notice or redemption action described in the notice. Such notice may be waived in writing by the registered owner entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by registered owners shall be filed with the Bond -18- Registrar, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. Upon surrender of such Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Bonds shall be paid by the Bond Registrar at the redemption price. The procedure for payment of interest due on or prior to the redemption date shall be as herein provided for payment of interest otherwise due. Upon surrender for any partial redemption of any Bond, there shall be prepared for the registered owner a new Bond or Bonds of like tenor, of authorized denominations, of the same maturity and bearing the same rate of interest in the amount of the unpaid principal. If any Bond or portion of Bond called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and premium (if any) shall, until paid or duly provided for, bear interest from the redemption date at the rate borne by the Bond or portion of Bond so called for redemption. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Bond - Registrar and shall not be reissued. Section 9. Form of Bond.

(b) Accounts Created Pursuant to Future Bond Ordinances: Future Bond Ordinances may create additional accounts in the Fund for the payment and security of waterworks and sewerage revenue bonds that hereafter may be issued by the City. Amounts in the Fund shall be credited to and transferred from said accounts in accordance with the terms of the Future Bond Ordinances.

Funds in the Surplus Account shall first be used to make up any subsequent deficiencies in any of said accounts and then shall be deposited to a separate and segregated account hereby created and designated the "Alternate Bond and Interest Subaccount of the Surplus Account" (the "Alternate Bond and Interest Subaccount "), as follows: A. There shall be paid into the Alternate Bond and Interest Subaccount in each month after the required payments have been made into the Accounts above described, a fractional amount of the interest becoming due on the next -28- succeeding interest payment date on all Outstanding Bonds and Outstanding Alternate Bonds and a fractional amount of the principal becoming due on the next succeeding principal maturity date of all Outstanding Bonds and Outstanding Alternate Bonds until there shall have been accumulated in the Alternate Bond and Interest Subaccount on or before the month preceding such maturity date of interest or principal, an amount sufficient to pay such principal or interest, or both, of all Outstanding Bonds and Outstanding Alternate Bonds. B. In computing the fractional amount to be set aside each month in said Alternate Bond and Interest Subaccount, the fraction shall be so computed that sufficient funds will be set aside in said Subaccount and will be available for the prompt payment of such principal of and interest on all Outstanding Bonds and Outstanding Alternate Bonds as the same will become due and shall be not less than one -fifth of the interest becoming due on the next succeeding interest payment date and not less than one -tenth of the principal becoming due on the next succeeding principal payment date on all Outstanding Bonds and Outstanding Alternate Bonds until there is sufficient money in said Subaccount to pay such principal or interest or both.

Credits to the Alternate Bond and Interest Subaccount may be suspended in any Fiscal Year at such time as there shall be a sufficient sum, held in cash and investments, in said Subaccount to meet principal and interest requirements in said Subaccount for the balance of such Fiscal Year, but such credits shall be resumed at the beginning of the next Fiscal Year. D. All moneys in said Subaccount shall be used only for the purpose of paying interest on and principal of Bonds, Additional Bonds and Outstanding Alternate Bonds. E. Any funds remaining in the Surplus Account after making the aforesaid deposits to the credit of the Alternate Bond and Interest Subaccount, at the discretion of the Corporate Authorities, shall be used, first, to make up any subsequent deficiencies in any of the accounts hereinabove named; and then, for the remainder of all surplus Revenues, at the discretion of the Corporate Authorities, for one or more of the following purposes without any priority among them: 1. For the purpose of constructing or acquiring repairs, replacements, improvements or extensions to the System; or 2. For making transfers to the Fund generally to be applied and treated as Revenues when transferred; or 3.
