legal tender for the payment of public and private debts,
upon their presentation and surrender as they become due at
the principal office of the Paying Agent/Registrar.
Section 5. The City reserves the right to redeem,
in whole or from time to time in part, all of the Series
1987 Refunding Bonds maturing in the years 1998 through 2004

factory to the Paying Agent/Registrar), notify the Paying
Agent/Registrar of such date and the principal amount of
Bonds of each maturity to be redeemed. If less than all of
the Bonds are to be redeemed, the particular Bonds to be
redeemed within each such maturity (in integral multiples of
$5,000) shall be selected by the City by such method as it
shall deem appropriate. The registered owner of any Bond,

interest on, that portion of the Bond called for redemption;
007RCJDD/PACDAL

Ordinance No. 1715
provided, however, that upon the surrender of any such Bond,
the City shall execute and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver to the registered owner thereof a
new Bond or Bonds of the same maturity in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Bond
surrendered. Notice of redemption shall be given by mailing
a copy thereof by registered or certified mail at least
thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption to
the registered owner of each Bond to be redeemed in whole or
in part at the address of such owner on the Bond Register
referred to in Section 6 hereof; provided, however, that
failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall
not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemp-
tion of any Bond or portion thereof with respect to which no
such failure or defect has occurred. Any notice mailed as
provided in this Section 5 shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given whether or not the registered owner
receives the notice. Prior to the date fixed for redemp-
tion, the City shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with
the Paying Agent/Registrar funds sufficient to pay in full
the principal of all Bonds or portions thereof called for
redemption, together with accrued interest thereon to the
redemption date. Any Bond or Bonds duly called for redemp-
tion, due provision for the full payment of which has been
timely made, shall cease to bear interest from and after the
date fixed for redemption.
Section 6. The City shall cause to be kept at the
principal office of the Paying Agent/Registrar a register
(the "Bond Register") in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar may
prescribe, registration of the Series 1987 Refunding Bonds
and transfers of the Series 1987 Refunding Bonds shall be
made as provided herein. Upon surrender for transfer of any
Bond at the principal office of the Paying Agent/Registrar,
the City shall execute and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Bonds of the same
maturity, of any authorized denominations, bearing the same
rate of interest and of a like aggregate principal amount.
At the option of the registered owner of any Bond, such Bond
may be exchanged for other Bonds of the same maturity, of
any authorized denominations, bearing the same rate of
interest, and of like aggregate principal amount, upon
surrender of the Bond to be exchanged at the principal
office of the Paying Agent/Registrar. Whenever any Bond is
so surrendered for exchange, the City shall execute, and the
Paying Agent/Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, the
Bonds which the registered owner of the Bond making the
007RCJDD/PACDAL
-6-
005040
Ordinance No. 1715
exchange is entitled to receive. Ail Bonds issued upon any
transfer or exchange of any Bond shall be the valid obliga-
tions of the City, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to
the same benefits under this Ordinance, as the Bond surren-
dered upon such transfer or exchange. Every Bond presented
or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by an instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar duly executed
by the registered owner thereof or his attorney duly author-
ized in writing. No service charge shall be made to the
registered owner for any registration, transfer or exchange
of Bonds, but the City or the Paying Agent/Registrar may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any transfer or exchange of Bonds. Neither the City
nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be required to transfer
or exchange any Bond during the period of time commencing
fifteen (15) days next preceding any interest payment date
or to transfer or exchange any Bond during the thirty (30)
day period prior to the date fixed for the redemption of
such Bond.
Section 7. The City, the Paying Agent/Registrar
and any other person may treat the individual, firm or
corporation in whose name any Series 1987 Refunding Bond is
registered on the Bond Register as the absolute owner of
such Bond for the purpose of making and receiving payment of
the principal thereof and interest thereon and for all other
purposes, whether or not such Bond is overdue, and neither
the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be bound by
any notice or knowledge to the contrary. Ail payments made

owner of any Series 1987 Refunding Bond in accordance with
this Section 7 shall be valid and effectual and shall
discharge the l~ability of the City and the Paying Agent/
Registrar to the extent of the sums paid.
Section 8. The Series 1987 Refunding Bonds shall
be executed on behalf of the City by the Mayor under its
seal attested by the City Secretary. Each such signature
may be manually executed or placed in facsimile on the
Bonds, and the City's seal may be manually impressed,
printed or otherwise placed on the Bonds. Series 1987
Refunding Bonds receiving the manual or facsimile signatures
of individuals who were at the time the duly elected or

City notwithstanding that such individuals or either of them
shall cease to hold such offices prior to the certification,
registration, authentication or delivery of such Bonds or

Public Accounts of the State of Texas by his manual signa-
ture or by the manual signature of one of his deputies

purpose, unless the Comptroller of Public Accounts of the
State of Texas or his duly authorized deputy shall have
executed a Registration Certificate substantially in the
form of the Registration Certificate of Comptroller of
Public Accounts set forth in Section 9 hereof or the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall have executed a Certificate of Auth-
entication substantially in the form of the Certificate of
Authentication of Paying Agent/Registrar set forth in
Section 9 hereof, and either such executed certificate upon
any Bond shall be conclusive evidence that such Bond has
been executed and delivered pursuant to this Ordinance.

Bonds, including the form of Registration Certificate of the

collected for or on account of the Bonds authorized by this
Ordinance shall, as collected, be deposited into said
Interest and Sinking Fund. While the Bonds or any part of
the principal thereof or the interest thereon remain out-

be annually assessed and collected in due time, form and
manner and at the same time other City taxes are assessed,
levied and collected, in each year beginning with the

fund of not less than two percent (2%) of the principal
amount o~ the Bonds then outstanding or of not less than the
amount required to pay the principal payable out of said
tax, whichever is greater, full allowance being made for
delinquencies and costs of collection, and said taxes, when

Section 11. There is hereby created and estab-
lished by the City a separate and special fund to be known
as the "CITY OF COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS, GENERAL OBLIGATION
REFUNDING BONDS, SERIES 1987 REBATE FUND" (the "Rebate
Fund") for the benefit of the United States of America and
the Clty, as their interests may appear pursuant to this
Ordinance. There are hereby established within the Rebate
Fund two separate accounts to be known as the Deposit
Account and the Earnings Account.
(a) On each annual anniversary date of the
issuance of the Bonds, the City shall pay into
the Earnings Account of the Rebate Fund out of
legally available funds an amount equal to the
aggregate income (determined in accordance with
federal income tax accounting principles)
attributable to the amounts in the Deposit
Account of the Rebate Fund for the period ending
on such annual anniversary date of the issuance
of the Bonds and beginning on the immediately
preceding annual anniversary date of the issu-
ance of the Bonds. Such amount is to be with-
drawn from the Deposit Account or may, at the
election of the City, be paid from other funds
legally available therefor. An annual anniver-
sary date for the Bonds, for purposes of this
Section 11, shall include the first date on
which all of the Bonds have been retired.
(b) The City shall pay, on each annual
anniversary date of the issuance of the Bonds
and immediately after the payment to the Earn-
ings Account of the Rebate Fund on such date,
into the Deposit Account of the Rebate Fund out
of funds legally available therefor the amount,
if any, which is required to increase the amount
on deposit in the Deposit Account to the Tenta-
tive Rebate Amount (as hereinafter defined) as
of such annual anniversary date. On such annual
anniversary date, any amount on deposit in the
Deposit Account in excess of the Tentative
Rebate Amount shall be withdrawn from the
Deposit Account and deposited with the general
funds of the City. For these purposes, the
007RCJDD/PACDAL
-16-
005050
Ordinance No. 1715
Tentative Rebate Amount as of a date is the
amount described in Section 148(f) (3) (A) of the
internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"), with respect to the Bonds determined as
of such date, which shall be determined in
accordance with Temp. Treas. Reg. ~ 1.103-15AT(d) (1)
and any applicable regulations that are issued
hereafter.
(c) The amounts in the Rebate Fund shall
be used solely for the payment to the United
States of America of amounts described in
Section 148(f) (2) of the Code and the regula-
tions thereunder, all as may be applicable to
the Bonds. Such payment shall be made by the
City in accordance with the requirements of
Section 148(f) (3) of the Code and the regu-
lations thereunder. The first installment of
such payment is to be made by the City within
thirty days after the fifth annual anniversary
date of the issuance of the Bonds, with each
subsequent installment of such payment to be
made within five years after the time at which
the next preceding installment was required.
The last installment of such payments is to be
made by the City within thirty days after the
final retirement of all of the Bonds.
(d) The City shall maintain a record of
its periodic determinations of the Tentative
Rebate Amount until six years after the final
retirement of all of the Bonds. Such records
shall summarize the manner in which the Tenta-
tive Rebate Amount, if any, was determined on
each date of determination.
(e) The City covenants and agrees with the
holders of the Bonds not to make a prohibited
payment, within the meaning of Temp. Treas. Reg.
~ 1.103-15AT(d) (6), with respect to the Bonds.
A prohibited payment includes the payment, or
agreement to pay, to a party other than the
United States of America, an amount that is re-
quired to be paid to the United States of
America pursuant to Section 148(d) (3) of the
Code by entering into a transaction that results
in a smaller profit or a larger loss than would
have resulted if the transaction had been at
arm's length and if the yield on the issue had
007 RCJDD / PACDAL - 17 -
005051
Ordinance No. 1715
not been relevant to either party; provided,
however, that the direct purchase of United
States Treasury obligations from the United
States Treasury is not a prohibited payment.
The investment of Bond proceeds in certificates
of deposit may, as provided in Temp. Treas. Reg.
~ 1.103-15AT(d) (6) (ii), be a prohibited payment.
The City covenants and agrees to maintain such
records as may be necessary to establish the
absence of any prohibited payment.
(f) The provisions of this Section 11 may
be amended by the City upon the receipt of an
opinion of Bond Counsel that such amendment will
not adversely affect the exclusion from gross
income for federal income tax purposes of
interest on the Bonds.
Section 12. The Mayor is hereby authorized and
directed to submit, or cause to be submitted, the record of
the Bonds, and the Initial Bonds, to the Attorney General of
the State of Texas for examination and approval and there-
after cause the Initial Bonds to be registered by the Comp-
troller of Public Accounts of the State of Texas. Upon said
registration of the Initial Bonds, said Comptroller of
Public Accounts (or a deputy designated in writing to act
for said Comptroller) shall manually sign the Comptroller's
Registration Certificate prescribed herein to be endorsed on
each of the Initial Bonds, and the seal of said Comptroller
shall be impressed or stamped on each such Bond.
Section 13. The City hereby covenants and agrees
with the Purchaser or Purchasers referred to in Section 16
hereof and any subsequent registered owner of any Series
1987 Refunding Bond that:
(a} the City shall take no action, or omit
to take any action, which act or omission will
adversely affect the exclusion from gross income
for federal income tax purposes of interest on
the Series 1987 Refunding Bonds, and, in partic-
ular, covenants to comply with those provisions
of Section 103 and Sections 141 through 150 of
the Code that affect the exclusion from gross
income of the interest on the Bonds.
(b) the City shall take no action, or omit
to take any action, and in particular will not
use, or permit the use of, any proceeds of the
007RCJDD/PACDAL -18- 005052
Ordinance No. 1715
sale of the Series 1987 Refunding Bonds, amounts
treated as proceeds of the Bonds or any other
amount, in any manner which would cause any Bond
to be an arbitrage bond within the meaning of
Section 148 of the Code, and to that end the
City shall comply with the applicable regula-
tions adopted under the Code.
(c) after the issuance of the Series 1987
Refunding Bonds, the City shall not intentionally
use any portion of the proceeds of the issue of
which the Bonds are a part in a manner described
in paragraph (1) or (2) of Section 148(a) of the
Code or in a manner which would cause the Bonds
to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section
149(d) (3) or Section 149(d) (4) of the Code.
(d) the City shall pay to the United
States of America the amount or amounts deter-
mined pursuant to Section 148(f) (2) of the Code
with respect to the Series 1987 Refunding Bonds
at the time or times required pursuant to
Section 148(f) (3) of the Code.
(e} after the issuance of the Series 1987
Refunding Bonds, the City shall not take, or
omit to take, any action, which act or omission
would cause the Series 1987 Refunding Bonds to
be federally guaranteed, within the meaning of
Section 149(b) of the Code.
Section 14. If (1) any mutilated Series 1987
Refunding Bond is surrendered to the Paying Agent/Registrar
or (2) the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar receive
evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of any Series 1987 Refunding Bond, and (a) there is
delivered to the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to save
each of them harmless and (b) the City and the Paying
Agent/Registrar have no notice that such latter Bond has
been acquired by a bona fide purchaser; then and in either
such event the City shall execute and upon its request the
Paying Agent/Registrar shall register and deliver, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Bond, a new Bond of the same maturity and of
like tenor, interest rate and principal amount, bearing a

that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Paying

pursuant to this Section 14 in lieu of any mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Bond shall constitute a replace-
ment of the prior obligation of the City, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Bond shall be at the
time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the
benefits of this Ordinance equally and ratably with all
other outstanding Bonds.

under the laws of the State of Texas and its duly adopted Home Rule Charter (the "Charter"). The Bonds
are issued pursuant to the Charter and the general laws of the State of Texas, particularly Article 717k,
Vernon's Texas Civil Statutes, and additionally pursuant to an ordinance authorizing the issuance and sale
of the Bonds (the "Bond Ordinance") passed by the City Council on the date of sale of the Bonds.
Payment Record
The City has never defaulted.
PLAN OF FINANCING
Purpose
The proceeds from the sale of the Bonds together with other funds of the City will be used to (1) refund
two series of outstanding General Obligation Bonds and one series of outstanding Combination Tax and
Revenue Certificates of Obligation and (2) advance refund two series of outstanding General Obligation
Bonds and one series of Combination Tax and Revenue Certificates of Obligation prior to their stated
maturities. The bonds and certificates of obligation to be refunded (hereinafter collectively referred to as
the "Refunded Bonds") constitute the following issues:

400,000 C.O.—Dated 10/23/81 160,000 1988-1991 10/23/87
Total $9,170,219
The Refunded Bonds will be called for redemption prior to maturity on their respective Option Dates at a
price of par plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption.
The total debt service on the Bonds is less than the total debt service on the Refunded Bonds.
The principal and interest payments on the Refunded Bonds scheduled to become due and payable prior
to the Option Dates and the principal amount of the Refunded Bonds scheduled to mature subsequent to
the Option Dates are to be paid on the dates each comes due, and on the Option Dates, respectively, from
funds to be deposited with First City National Bank of Houston, Houston, Texas (the "Escrow Agent").
The Bond Ordinance provides that from the proceeds of the sale of the Bonds to the Underwriter, and
from other funds of the City now on hand and lawfully available for such purpose, the City will deposit
with the Escrow Agent the amount necessary to accomplish the discharge and final payment of the
Refunded Bonds. Such funds will be held by the Escrow Agent in an escrow account ( the "Escrow
Fund") and used to purchase direct obligations of the United States of America (the "Federal
Securities"). At the time of delivery of the Bonds to the Underwriter, Arthur Andersen & Co., Certified
Public Accountants, will verify the mathematical adequacy of the Federal Securities, maturing at such time
and yielding interest in amounts, such that together with uninvested funds in the Escrow Fund, if any, they
will be sufficient to pay, when due, the principal of and interest on the Refunded Bonds. Such maturing
principal of and interest 011 the Federal Securities will not be available to pay debt service on the Bonds.

005062
Under a certain Special Escrow Agreement ( the "Escrow Agreement") to be dated as of July 30, 1987,
between the City and the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Fund is irrevocably pledged for the payment of
principal of and interest on the Refunded Bonds.
By the deposit of the Federal Securities and cash with the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow
Agreement, the City will have effected the defeasance of the Refunded Bonds pursuant to the terms of the
Bond Ordinance. In the opinion of Bond Counsel, as a result of such defeasance, the Refunded Bonds will
no longer be payable from the ad valorem taxes, but will be payable solely from the principal of and
interest on the Federal Securities and cash held for such purpose by the Escrow Agent, and the pledge of
ad valorem taxes for the payment of the principal and interest on the Refunded Bonds will be discharged.

The proceeds from the sale of the Bonds together with other available City funds will be applied
approximately as follows:

THE BONDS
General
The Bonds are dated July 15, 1987, and interest on the Bonds will be calculated on the basis of a 360 -day
year composed of twelve 30 -day months, will accrue from July 15, 1987, and is payable semiannually on
February 15 and August 15 of each year ("Interest Payment Date") commencing February 15, 1988. The
Bonds mature on February 15 in the years and in the principal amounts or amounts due at maturity set
forth on the cover page hereof. Interest on the Bonds is payable by check or draft mailed on or before
each Interest Payment Date by the Registrar to the registered owner thereof as shown on the Registrar's
books on the Record Date (as defined herein). The record date (the "Record Date") for the interest
payable on any Interest Payment Date is the last business day of the month next preceding such Interest
Payment Date. The Bonds are issued only as fully registered bonds in the denomination of $5,000 or any
integral multiple thereof.
Security
The Bonds will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the City, payable from and secured by a
continuing levy of ad valorem taxes against all taxable property on the tax rolls of the City, within the
limits prescribed by law.
Optional Redemption
All Bonds maturing on or after February 15, 1998, are optional for redemption in whole or in part on
February 15, 1997, or any date thereafter at par and accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption. If
less than all of the Bonds are redeemed at any time, the particular Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected
005063
4
by the City in integral multiples of $5,000 within any one maturity. The registered owner of any Bond, all
or a portion of which has been called for redemption, shall be required to present same to the Registrar for
payment of the redemption price on the portion of the Bond so called for redemption and shall be issued a
new Bond in the principal amount equal to the portion of such Bond not redeemed.
Notice of Redemption
Notice of redemption is required to be given by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail at
least thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the registered owner of each Bond to be
redeemed in whole or in part at the address of such owner on the registration books of the Registrar;
provided, however, that failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, will not affect the validity of the
proceedings for the redemption of any Bond or portion thereof with respect to which no such failure or
defect has occurred. Any notice mailed in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Ordinance will be
conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the registered owner receives the notice.
Any Bond or Bonds duly called for redemption, due provision for the full payment of which has been
timely made, will cease to bear interest from and after the date fixed for redemption.
Delivery of the Bonds
The Bonds are expected to be available for delivery on or about July 30, 1987. Delivery of the Bonds will
be accomplished by the issuance of one Bond for each maturity ( the "Initial Bonds") either in typed or
printed form, payable to the Underwriter. If the Underwriter furnishes to the Registrar, at least five days
prior to delivery of the Bonds (or as otherwise agreed to between the Underwriter and the Registrar),
instructions designating the names in which Bonds are to be registered, the addresses of the registered
owners, the maturities, interest rates and denomination of such Bonds, the Registrar shall, on the date of
delivery, authenticate and deliver in exchange for the Initial Bonds, Bonds registered in accordance with
such instructions in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Initial
Bonds submitted for transfer or exchange.
Successor Registrar
Provision is made in the Bond Ordinance for replacement of the Registrar. If the Registrar is replaced by
the City, the new Registrar shall accept the previous Registrar's records and act in the same capacity as the
previous Registrar. Any Registrar selected by the City shall be either a national or state banking
institution and shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or of any State, authorized under such laws to exercise trust powers, and subject to supervision or
examination by Federal or State authority. Successor Registrars, if any, shall be determined by the City.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange
The Bonds may be transferred, registered and assigned only on the registration books of the Registrar, and
such registration and transfer shall be without expense or service charge to the owner, except for any tax or
other governmental charges required to be paid with respect to such registration and transfer. A Bond may
be assigned by the execution of an assignment form on the Bonds or by other instrument of transfer and
assignment acceptable to the Registrar. A new Bond or Bonds will be delivered by the Registrar in lieu of
the Bond being transferred or exchanged at the principal office of the Registrar. To the extent possible,
new Bonds issued in an exchange or transfer of Bonds will be delivered to the registered owner or assignee
of such owner not more than three business days after the receipt of the Bonds to be cancelled in the
exchange or transfer and the written instrument of transfer or request for exchange duly executed by the
owner or his duly authorized agent, in form satisfactory to the Registrar. New Bonds registered and
delivered in an exchange or transfer shall be in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof
for any one maturity, shall specify the same maturity date and be for a like aggregate principal amount as
the Bond or Bonds surrendered for exchange or transfer.
Limitation on Transfer or Exchange of Bonds
Neither the City nor the Registrar shall be required to transfer or exchange any Bond during the period of
fifteen (15) days next preceding any Interest Payment Date or to transfer or exchange any Bond during
the thirty (30) day period prior to the date fixed for the redemption of such Bond.

Bondholders Remedies
The Bond Ordinance which requires the City to levy and collect taxes does not specifically provide any
remedies that would be available to a Bondholder if the City defaults in the payment of the principal or
interest on the Bonds or for the appointment of a trustee to protect and enforce the interests of the
Bondholders upon the occurrence of such a default. If a holder of a Bond does not receive payment of
principal or interest when due, the holder could seek to obtain a writ of mandamus from a court of
competent jurisdiction requiring the City to observe the covenants contained in the Bond Ordinance, or
such holder could presumably recover a judgement against the City. The enforcement of a claim for the
payment of a Bond could be subject to judicial discretion, sovereign police powers of the State and the
provisions of the Federal bankruptcy laws, if applicable.
There is no provision for acceleration of maturity of principal of the Bonds in the event of default and,
consequently, the remedy of mandamus may have to be enforced from year to year. Any judgment against
the City could not be enforced by direct levy and execution against the City's property or funds. Further,
the registered owners of Bonds cannot themselves foreclose on property within the City or sell property
within the City in order to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds. The enforcement of a claim for
the payment of a Bond would also be subject to the applicable provisions of the Federal bankruptcy laws
and to any other statute affecting the rights of creditors of political subdivisions.
Replacement Bonds
If any Bond is mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, a new Bond in the same principal amount as the Bond
so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost will be issued. In the case of a mutilated Bond, such new Bond will
be delivered only upon surrender and cancellation of such mutilated Bond. In the case of any Bond issued
in lieu of and substitution for a Bond which has been destroyed, stolen or lost, such new Bond will be
delivered only (a) upon filing with the City and the Registrar of evidence satisfactory to establish to the
City and the Registrar that such Bond has been destroyed, stolen or lost, (b) upon furnishing the City and
the Registrar with indemnity satisfactory to them, and (c) upon the City and the Registrar having received
no notice that such Bond has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser. The person requesting the
authentication and delivery of a new Bond must comply with such other reasonable regulations as the
Registrar may incur in connection therewith.
MUNICIPAL BOND INSURANCE
AMBAC Indemnity Corporation
AMBAC Indemnity Corporation ("AMBAC Indemnity") is a Wisconsin -domiciled stock insurance
company, regulated by the Insurance Department of the State of Wisconsin, and licensed to do business in
various states, with admitted assets (unaudited) of approximately $1,000,000,000 and qualified capital
(unaudited) of approximately $580,000,000 as of June 30, 1987. Qualified capital consists of AMBAC
Indemnity's statutory contingency reserve and policyholders' surplus. AMBAC Indemnity is a wholly-
owned subsidiary of AMBAC Inc., a financial holding company which is owned by Citibank, N.A., the
employees of AMBAC Indemnity, Xerox Financial Services, Inc. and Stephens Inc. Standard & Poor's
Corporation and Moody's Investors Service, Inc. have assigned their ratings of "AAA" and "Aaa",
respectively, to the claims paying ability of AMBAC Indemnity. Copies of AMBAC Indemnity's financial
statements prepared in accordance with statutory accounting standards are available from AMBAC
Indemnity. The address of AMBAC Indemnity's administrative offices and its telephone number are One
State Street Plaza, 17th Floor, New York, New York, 10004 and (212) 668-0340.
AMBAC Indemnity has entered into stop -loss reinsurance agreements with a number of unaffiliated
reinsurers designed to supplement its resources. The stop -loss reinsurance agreements cover all AMBAC
Indemnity's existing insured mutual funds, unit trusts, portfolios and new issues insured by AMBAC
Indemnity. In addition, AMBAC Indemnity has entered into quota share reinsurance agreements under
which a percentage of the insurance or reinsurance underwritten pursuant to certain municipal bond
insurance programs of AMBAC Indemnity has been and will be assumed by such reinsurers.
6
005065
AMBAC Indemnity has obtained a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that the insuring
of an obligation by AMBAC Indemnity will not affect the treatment for federal income tax purposes of
interest on such obligation and that insurance proceeds representing maturing interest paid by AMBAC
Indemnity under policy provisions substantially identical to those contained in its municipal bond guaranty
insurance policy shall be treated for federal income tax purposes in the same manner as if such payments
were made by the issuer of the Bonds.
AMBAC Indemnity makes no representation regarding the Bonds or the advisability of investing in the
Bonds and makes no representation regarding, nor has it participated in the preparation of, the Official
Statement other than the information supplied by AMBAC Indemnity and presented under the heading
"MUNICIPAL BOND INSURANCE".
Payment Pursuant to Municipal Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy
AMBAC Indemnity has made a commitment to issue a municipal bond guaranty insurance policy (the
"Municipal Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy") relating to the Bonds effective as of the date of issuance of
the Bonds. Under the terms of the Municipal Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy, AMBAC Indemnity
guarantees the timely payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds to the United States Trust
Company of New York, in New York, New York or any successor thereto ( the "Insurance Trustee") less
any amount held by the Trustee or Paying Agent for the payment thereof. AMBAC Indemnity will make
such payments to the Insurance Trustee on the date due for payment or within one business day after
receipt of notice of nonpayment, whichever is later. The insurance will extend for the term of the Bonds
and, once issued, cannot be cancelled by AMBAC Indemnity.
The Municipal Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy will insure payment only as principal or interest payments
shall become due but shall not be paid. It will not insure payment on acceleration, as a result of a call for
redemption (other than mandatory sinking fund redemption) or as a result of any other advancement of
maturity, nor will it insure the payment of any prepayment premium. In the event of any acceleration of
the principal of the Bonds, the payments insured will be made at such times and in such amounts as would
have been made had there not been an acceleration.
The Municipal Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy will not insure against nonpayment of principal or interest
caused by the insolvency or negligence of any Trustee or Paying Agent or the Insurance Trustee. If the
Bonds become subject to mandatory redemption and insufficient funds are available for redemption of all
outstanding Bonds, AMBAC Indemnity will remain obligated to pay principal of and interest on
outstanding Bonds on the originally scheduled interest and principal payment dates including mandatory
sinking fund redemption dates. In the event the Trustee has notice that any payment of principal of or
interest on a Bond made to a Bondholder by or on behalf of the Issuer has been deemed a preferential
transfer and theretofore recovered from its registered owner pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy
Code in accordance with a final, nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, such registered
owner will be entitled to payment from AMBAC Indemnity to the extent of such recovery if sufficient funds
are not otherwise available.
If it becomes necessary to call upon the Municipal Bond Guaranty Insurance Policy, payment of interest
and principal requires surrender of Bonds or coupons and an appropriate assignment of the Bondholder's
right to payment to the Insurance Trustee.
Upon remittance and transfer of Bonds and coupons, if any, or appropriate instruments of assignment,
AMBAC Indemnity will become the owner thereof.

City to perform professional services in the capacity of Financial Advisor, including the preparation of this
"Official Statement." Information with respect to interest rates, discounts, and other matters relating to the
resale of the Bonds, including changes in the affairs of the City subsequent to the date hereof, is the
responsibility of the Underwriter and such information is not provided herein. The information set forth

must not be relied upon as having been authorized by the City or Moroney Beissner & Co., Inc. This
"Official Statement" does not constitute an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy, in any state in
which such offer or solicitation is not authorized, or in which the person making such offer or solicitation is
not qualified to do so, or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation. Any
information and expressions of opinions herein are subject to change, without notice, and neither the
delivery of this "Official Statement," nor any sale made hereunder, shall under any circumstances create
any implication that there has been no change in the affairs of the City since the date hereof.
PROPERTY TAXES
Property Subject to Taxation by the City
Except for certain exemptions provided by federal and State law, all property in the City is subject to ad
valorem taxation. Categories of exemptions applicable to the City include property owned by the State or
its political subdivisions if the property is used for public purposes; property exempt from ad valorem
taxation by federal law; certain household goods, family supplies and personal effects; farm products
owned by the producers; certain property affiliated with charitable organizations, youth development
associations, religious organizations and qualified schools; designated historical sites, solar and wind -
powered energy devices; and most individually owned automobiles.
Taxable property in the City is required to be valued for tax purposes at 100% of market value ( with
limited exceptions) as of January 1 of each year. The City was authorized by the Texas Constitution to
exempt up to 40% of the appraised value of each residential homestead for years 1982 through 1984. The
City is authorized to exempt up to 30% of such value for years 1985 through 1987 and 20% thereafter. The
Texas Property Tax Code ( the "Property Tax Code") also provides for exemptions of up to $3,000 for
homesteads of disabled veterans and certain survivors of deceased disabled veterans who apply for the
exemption. State law also permits the City Council to grant a homestead exemption of not less than $3,000
of appraised value to persons over 65 years of age.
The Property Tax Code provides certain restrictions on annual increases in tax rates based on a complex
formula. The effect of these limitations is to require a public hearing if the proposed tax increase, other
than for taxes levied to pay debt service on Bonds and certain contractual obligations, exceeds 3% and an
election (upon petition of 10% of the qualified voters in the City) to require a rollback to 8% if such an
increase exceeds 8%.
Taxing Procedures
The Brazos County Appraisal District ( the "Appraisal District"), a county -wide agency created under the
Property Tax Code, is responsible for appraising property in the City, and the Brazos County Appraisal
Review Board ( the "Review Board") is responsible for reviewing the values established by the Appraisal
District. The Appraisal District is governed by a five -person board of directors. Voting for membership on
the board of directors of the Appraisal District is cumulative, based on total taxes levied by taxing units
within the Appraisal District.
005067
8
Appraisals may be protested by taxpayers, and in such case the Review Board determines whether the
appraisals are substantially uniform and otherwise comply with the law. The City also has the right to
challenge some Appraisal District determinations, but not the appraised value of an individual taxpayer's
property. Orders of the Review Board are subject to appeal to a state district court. The City's tax roll is
certified to the City by the Chief Appraiser of the Appraisal District, and the tax rate established by the
City Council is applied to the values fixed by the Appraisal District, as reduced by exemptions granted by
the City.
Tax statements are required to be mailed by October 1 or as soon thereafter as practicable; taxes are due
upon receipt of a tax bill; and taxes become delinquent on February 1 of the following tax year. Split
payments are allowed; first half by November 30, and balance by June 30. Delinquent taxes incur a
penalty of 6% of the amount of the tax for the first calendar month of delinquency plus 1% for each month
or portion of a month of delinquency until July 1 when the penalty becomes 12%. Taxes that remain
delinquent on July 1 of the year in which they become delinquent may incur an additional penalty of not
greater than 15% of the amount of taxes, penalty and interest due to defray costs of collection. Interest on
delinquent taxes accrues at the rate of 1% per month until the tax is paid.
To secure the payment of all taxes, as well as penalty and interest on delinquent taxes, the City has a
statutory lien on taxable property which is on a parity with the lien of other taxing entities, and the
taxpayer is personally liable for payment of the tax. Personal property of the taxpayer is subject to seizure
and sale to satisfy delinquent taxes. The City may also sue to foreclose its tax lien on real or personal
property, or to enforce personal liability, or both. If a judgment is obtained for foreclosure of the tax lien,
the court may order the property sold to satisfy the lien. The City generally has not attempted to enforce
the lien because of the time and expense of foreclosure proceedings. Delinquent taxes on real property are
generally paid at such time as the owner sells or transfers title to the property upon which the delinquent
tax has accrued.

accomodate 5,000 cars, is ultimately planned to contain 125 stores with 1,020,000 square feet of shopping
area.
CITY MANAGEMENT
College Station was incorporated in 1938 and has a Council -City Manager form of government with City
employees totaling 480 today. The City has benefited from the availability of technical information and
assistance made available by Texas A&M University. Over the years, numerous College professors and
business people have served in City government and administration.
The City has adopted and does enforce comprehensive zoning and building restrictions which promote
orderly growth and development. The City's ordinances require all subdividers, at their own expense, and
without provision for refund, to install streets and water and sewer lines in any planned subdivision. These
facilities are constructed under the City's specifications and inspection and when completed are deeded to
the City free and clear. All areas within the City are now adequately served with water, sewer and electric
service.
CITY OWNED FACILITIES
The City has constructed a major part of its present facilities out of current revenues. Approximately 99%,
or 155 miles, of streets within the City are hard surface. The City has a complete water distribution,
sewage collection and treatment system with 188 miles of sanitary sewer lines and 179 miles of water lines.
The City owns the electrical distribution system with 149 miles of distribution lines, and purchases its
electricity from Gulf States Utilities Company.
College Station owns modern and efficient fire fighting equipment, with 79 full time firemen. The fire
department has seven fire trucks, three modulance style ambulances for emergency medical service and six
administrative vehicles. The City has a fully equipped and effective police department with 75 full time
police officers, and four radio dispatchers that service both fire and police departments.
RESIDENTIAL CALIBER
College Station, a community of above-average value homes, townhomes and apartments, is principally a
residential community for faculty, students and other personnel of Texas A&M University. There is a
blend of new modern homes and older stately structures along tree shaded streets. Residential values
range from $50,000 to $200,000. Thirty new apartment projects, with 20 or more units in each, as well as a
number of townhouse projects, have been completed within the past two years. Substandard housing is
virtually nonexistant and is of no significance in the local economic picture in College Station.
RECREATION
The College Station park system presently includes 27 parks encompassing 318 acres. Collectively these
parks contain 13 playgrounds, 10 soccer fields, 14 softball/baseball diamonds; 2 swimming pools, a
gymnasium, and a number of picnic shelters. The Parks Department sponsors a variety of organized
athletic and acquatic programs as well as many special events throughout the year.
Central Park features 47 acres of nature trails, picnic facilities and athletic fields. Just south of College
Station is the Texas World Speedway, which provides all types of racing events.

EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES
The College Station Independent School District is a fully accredited system offering educational facilities
for kindergarten through high school. The school system currently includes two kindergartens, two
elementary schools, one middle school ( fifth and sixth grades); one junior high school (seventh and eighth
grades) and one high school.
The College Station ISD facilities are also used by Blinn College, offering two years of college level
courses.
The Texas A&M University System provides the higher educational needs of the Community, offering both
four year college programs and extensive graduate degree opportunities.
VERIFICATION OF MATHEMATICAL COMPUTATIONS
The accuracy of (i) the mathematical computations of the adequacy of the maturing principal amount of
the Federal Securities to be held by the Escrow Agent together with the interest earned and to be earned
thereon to pay, when due, the principal of and interest on the Refunded Bonds and (ii) the mathematical
computation of yield supporting Bond Counsel's conclusion that the Bonds are not "Arbritrage Bonds"
under Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"), will be verified by the
firm of Arthur Andersen & Co., independent Certified Public Accountants, whose opinion with respect
thereto will be available at delivery.
TAX MATTERS
The delivery of the Bonds is subject to the opinion of Baker & Botts, Houston, Texas, Bond Counsel, to the
effect that, under existing statutes, regulations, court decisions and published rulings, interest on the Bonds
is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for
purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations provided that
such interest will be included in adjusted net book income ( adjusted current earnings for taxable years
beginning after 1989) for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax liability of a corporation
imposed by Section 55 of the Code and the environmental tax imposed on certain corporations by Section
59A of the Code and may be subject to the branch profits tax imposed on foreign corporations by Section
884 of the Code and to the tax imposed by Section 1375 of the Code on the excess net passive income of
certain S corporations.
The Code imposes a number of requirements that must be met subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in
order for interest on the Bonds to be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. These
requirements include limitations on the use of bond proceeds, limitations on the investment of bond
proceeds prior to expenditure, and a requirement that excess arbitrage earned on the investment of bond
proceeds be paid periodically to the United States of America. The City has covenanted in the Bond
Ordinance ( the "Tax Covenants") that it will comply with these requirements.
Bond Counsel's tax opinion that is described above will assume continuing compliance with the Tax
Covenants and will rely upon, among other matters, a certificate executed by officers of the City with
respect to certain facts, estimates and expectations, including facts, estimates and expectations which are
solely within the City's knowledge and the report of Arthur Andersen & Co., CPA's, described under
"Verification of Mathematical Computations" with respect to the accuracy of certain calculations. If the
City should fail to comply with the Tax Covenants, if the above-described certificate were to be inaccurate
or if the Arthur Andersen & Co. calculations were to be inaccurate, the interest on the Bonds could be
includable in gross income from the date of issuance thereof, regardless of the date on which the event
causing such taxability occurs. The balance of the discussion under this caption "Tax Matters" assumes
that there will be continuing compliance with the Tax Covenants, that the above-described certificate is
accurate, and that the Arthur Andersen & Co. calculations are accurate.
21
005000
Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax and Environmental Tax. The Code imposes a 20 percent alternative
minimum tax on the "alternative minimum taxable income" of certain corporations, if the amount of such
alternative minimum tax is greater than the amount of the corporation's regular income tax. Section 59A
of the Code also imposes an additional 0.12 percent "environmental tax" on the alternative minimum
taxable income of a corporation in excess of $2,000,000. For taxable years beginning in 1987, 1988, or
1989, a corporation's alternative minimum taxable income includes, in general, 50 percent of the amount
by which adjusted net book income of the corporation exceeds its alternative minimum taxable income
( excluding the amount obtained by the calculation summarized in this sentence). For later taxable years,
a corporation's alternative minimum taxable income includes, in general, 75 percent of the amount by
which adjusted current earnings of the corporation exceeds alternative minimum taxable income
(excluding the amount obtained by the calculation -summarized in this sentence). Interest on the Bonds
will be included, for purposes of the alternative minimum tax and the environmental tax, in the adjusted
net book income and adjusted current earnings of a corporation. The effect of owning a Bond upon a
corporate investor's liability for such alternative minimum tax (which is payable only to the extent it
exceeds the corporation's regular tax liability) and the environmental tax will depend on the corporation's
particular facts and circumstances. Except as described above in the discussion regarding the book income
item for certain corporations, interest on the Bonds will not be subject to the alternative minimum tax on
individuals or corporations.
Foreign Branches and S Corporations. Certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States
may be subject to the new "branch profits tax" on their effectively -connected earnings and profits including
tax-exempt interest such as interest on the Bonds. In addition, certain S corporations may be subject to the
tax imposed by Section 1375 of the Code on the excess net passive income of such corporations which
excess net passive income includes tax-exempt interest such as interest on the Bonds.
Collateral Tax Consequences and Other Tax Matters. Except as stated above, Bond Counsel will express
no opinion as to any federal, state or local tax consequences resulting from the acquisition, ownership,
carrying or disposition of the Bonds. Ownership of tax-exempt obligations may result in collateral federal
income tax consequences to financial institutions, property and casualty insurance companies, individual
recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits and taxpayers who may be deemed to have
incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase or carry tax-exempt obligations which are not discussed
herein. These categories of purchasers should consult their own tax advisors as to such matters.
Purchasers of a Bond should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the state and local tax
consequences of owning a Bond.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT CERTIFICATE
At the time of payment for and delivery of the Bonds, the City will furnish the Underwriter a certificate
signed by the Deputy Director of Finance acting in his official capacity, to the effect that the "Official
Statement" has been authorized and approved by the City Council, and to the best of his knowledge and
belief after reasonable investigation: (a) neither the "Official Statement" nor any amendment or
supplement thereto contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not
misleading; (b) since the date of the "Official Statement" no event has occurred which should have been
set forth in an amendment or supplement to the "Official Statement" which has not been set forth in such
amendment or supplement; and (c) there has not been any material adverse change in the operation or
financial affairs of the City since the date of such "Official Statement."
22
005081
LEGAL MATTERS
Legal matters incident to the authorization, issuance and sale of the Bonds are subject to the unqualified
approval of the Attorney General of the State of Texas and of Baker & Botts, Bond Counsel, whose
approving opinion will be printed on the Bonds. Baker & Botts was not requested to participate, and did
not take part, in the preparation of the Official Statement except as hereinafter noted, and such firm has
not assumed any responsibility with respect thereto or undertaken independently to verify any of the
information contained herein, except that, in its capacity as Bond Counsel, such firm has reviewed the
information under the captions "PLAN OF FINANCING" ( except for statements with respect to sources
and uses of funds and other accounting matters), "THE BONDS", "LEGAL INVESTMENTS AND
ELIGIBILITY TO SECURE PUBLIC FUNDS IN TEXAS" and "TAX MATTERS" in the Official
Statement to determine whether such information presents a fair and accurate summary of the provisions
of the law and the instruments described under such captions. The legal fees to be paid to Baker & Botts in
connection with the issuance of the Bonds are contingent on the sale and delivery of the Bonds.
NO LITIGATION CERTIFICATE
The City will furnish withoutcost to the Underwriter a certificate signed by the Mayor and City Secretary
which will recite, among other things, that no litigation of any nature has been filed or is now pending to
restrain or enjoin the issuance or delivery of the Bonds, or which would affect the provision made for their
payment or security, or in any other manner questioning the proceedings or authority concerning the
issuance of the Bonds, and that so far as is known and believed, no such litigation is threatened.
RATINGS
The outstanding General Obligation Bonds of the City are rated "A-1" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
("Moody's") and "A+" by Standard & Poors Corporation ("S&P"). Moody's and S&P have assigned
their municipal bond ratings of "Aaa" and "AAA", respectively, to this issue of Bonds with the
understanding that upon delivery of the Bonds a guaranty insurance policy insuring the timely payment of
the principal of and interest on the Bonds will be issued by AMBAC Indemnity Corporation.
SECURITIES LAWS
The Bonds have not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance
upon the exemption provided by Section 3( a )( 2 ). The Bonds have not been registered or qualified under
the Texas Securities Act in reliance upon various exemptions it contains, or under the securities acts of any
other jurisdiction. The City assumes no responsibility for registering or qualifying the Bonds under the
securities laws of any jurisdiction in which the Bonds may be offered, sold, assigned, hypothecated or
otherwise transferred. This disclaimer of responsibility for registration or qualification of the Bonds does
not mean that the Bonds may be exempt from securities registration or qualification provisions.
LEGAL INVESTMENTS AND ELIGIBILITY TO SECURE PUBLIC FUNDS IN TEXAS
Section 9 of the Bond Procedures Act of 1981 states: "All bonds issued by an issuer shall constitute
negotiable instruments, and are investment securities governed by Chapter 8, Texas Uniform Commercial
Code, notwithstanding any provisions of law or court decision to the contrary, and are legal and authorized
investments for banks, savings banks, trust companies, building and loan associations, savings and loan
associations, insurance companies, fiduciaries, and trustees, and for the sinking fund of cities, towns,
villages, school districts, and other political subdivisions or public agencies of the State of Texas". The Act
further provides that such bonds are eligible to secure deposits of any public funds of the state or any
political subdivision or public agency of the state, and are lawful and sufficient security for those deposits
to the extent of their market value, when accompanied by any unmatured coupons attached to the bonds.
No review by the City has been made of the laws in other states to determine whether the Bonds are legal
investments for various institutions in those states.

00:5;082
UNDERWRITING
The Underwriter, Rauscher Pierce Refsnes, Inc., agrees, subject to certain conditions, to purchase the
Bonds from the City, at a price of par plus accrued interest. The City will pay an underwriting fee to the
Underwriter in an amount equal to 1.7% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds. The
Underwriter's obligations are subject to certain conditions precedent, and they will be obligated to
purchase all of the Bonds if any of the Bonds are purchased. One of such conditions is that the City will
purchase from the Underwriter certain federal securities for deposit in the Escrow Fund. The Bonds may
be offered and sold to certain dealers and others at prices lower than such public offering prices, and such
public prices may be changed, from time to time, by the Underwriter.

preparation of this Official Statement and represented the City in the negotiations pertaining to the sale of
the Bonds to the Underwriter. Under the terms of the contract between Moroney, Beissner & Co., Inc. and

of the principal amount of Bonds actually sold and delivered, which fee is contingent upon such sale and
delivery.

AUDITORS' OPINION
Mayor Larry Ringer and
Members of City Council
of the City of College Station, Texas:
We have examined the general purpose financial statements of the City of
College Station, Texas ("City") as of June 30, 1986 and for the year then
ended, listed in the foregoing table of contents. Our examination was made in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly,
included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
In our opinion, the accompanying general purpose financial statements present
fairly the financial position of the City at June 30, 1986, and the results of
its operations and the changes in financial position of its proprietary fund
types and pension trust fund for the year then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with
that of the preceding year.
Our examination also comprehended the supplemental financial information,
listed in the foregoing table of contents, as of June 30, 1986 and for the
year then ended. In our opinion, such supplemental financial information,
when considered in relation to the general purpose financial statements,
presents fairly in all material respects the information shown therein.
In connection with our examination, nothing came to our attention that caused
us to believe that the City was not in compliance with any of the accounting
or financial reporting requirements of the various bond resolutions governing
the outstanding bonds of the City. Our examination was not, however, directed
primarily toward obtaining knowledge of such noncompliance.
The accompanying statistical tables, listed in the foregoing table of contents,
were not audited by us and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.

Houston, Houston, Texas, or its successors, the Paying
Agent/Registrar of the Bonds. Interest on the Bonds will be
paid on each February 15 and August 15, commencing February
15, 1988, until the principal is paid, by check or draft
mailed by the Paying Agent/Registrar.
The City has reserved the right to redeem all
Bonds maturing on February 15, 1998 or thereafter on Febru-
ary 15, 1997 and at the times thereafter specified in the
Ordinance, by paying the principal amount thereof, and ac-
crued interest thereon, to the date of redemption.
We have examined certified counterparts of the
Ordinance; the Initial Bonds (as defined in the Ordinance);
certified copies of proceedings of the City Council of the
City; an executed opinion of the Attorney General of the
State of Texas relating to, among other things, the validity
of the Bonds; a certificate of Arthur Andersen & Co. with
respect to certain calculations; certain certificates of
representatives of the City and other public officials, upon
which certificates we rely.
BASED ON SUCH EXAMINATION, IT IS OUR OPINION that
the Bonds have been duly authorized, executed, issued and
delivered in accordance with the Constitution and laws of
the State of Texas and constitute the legal, validand bind-
ing general obligations of the City enforceable against the
City in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws or ju-
dicial decisions relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights or contractual obligations generally and
the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with gen-
eral principles of equity (regardless of whether such
enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law) .
The Bonds are payable from and secured by an annu-
al ad valorem tax upon all taxable property located in the
City to pay the interest on, and the principal of, the Bonds
as such interest and principal, respectively, become due and
payable, within the limits prescribed by law.
IT IS FURTHER OUR OPINION that, under existing
statutes, regulations, court decisions and published rul-
ings, interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income
for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax
preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum
tax imposed on individuals and corporations provided that
such interest will be included in adjusted net book income

(adjusted current earnings for taxable years beginning after
1989) for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax
liability of a corporation imposed by Section 55 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and
the environmental tax imposed on certain corporations by
Section 59A of the Code, and may be subject to the branch
profits tax imposed on foreign corporations by Section 884
of the Code and to the tax imposed by Section 1375 of the
Code on the excess net passive income of certain S corpora-
tions. The opinion expressed in the preceding sentence as-
sumes continuing compliance by the City with covenants con-
tained in the Ordinance with respect to the requirements
imposed by the Code that must be met subsequent to the issu-
ance of the Bonds for interest on the Bonds to be excludable
from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Such
requirements include limitations on the use of bond pro-
ceeds, limitations on the investment of bond proceeds prior
to expenditure and a requirement that excess arbitrage prof-
its be paid periodically to the United States of America.
Except as stated above, we express no opinion re-
specting any federal, state or local tax consequences at-
tributable to the acquisition, ownership, carrying or dis-
position of the Bonds. There are certain collateral federal
income tax consequences of the ownership of tax-exempt obli-
gations, such as a Bond, to certain persons (e.g., financial
institutions, property and casualty insurance companies,
individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retire-
ment benefits and taxpayers who may have incurred or contin-
ued indebtedness to purchase or carry tax-exempt obliga-
tions) which are not discussed herein.
Respectfully,
