required to be paid on an annual basis is intended to be prepaid
as aforesaid, notice thereof identifying the amount of principal
to be prepaid shall be given in the name of the Issuer by the
Borrower or the Issuer by mailing (by certified or registered
mail postage prepaid, return receipt requested) a copy of the
prepayment notice at least thirty (30 ) days and not more than
ninety (90 ) days prior to the date fixed for prepayment, to the
owner of each Bond to be prepaid at the address furnished to the
Issuer and the Borrower in writing by such owner, unless such
notice is waived by the owners of the Bonds ; provided, however,
that failure to give such notice by mailing, or any defect there-
in, shall not affect the validity of any proceedings for the
prepayment of principal with respect to which no such failure has
occurred. The unpaid portions of the Bonds shall continue to
bear interest until paid. Payment will be made upon presentation
and surrender of the Bonds to be prepaid.
If the Issuer shall default in the due and punctual
payment of the interest on, or the principal of, or premium, if
any, on any Bond when and as the same shall become due and pay-
able, at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, or if a default
under the Bond Ordinance, the Loan Agreement, the Collateral
Security Agreement, the Mortgage or the Assignment shall occur as
provided therein, then, and at any time thereafter, unless and
until the default shall have been cured or shall have been waived
in the manner provided therein, the owner of this Series 1979
Bond may, upon written notice given by certified or registered
mail to the Issuer and the Borrower, and to the owners of the
remainder of the Bonds at the time outstanding under the Bond
Ordinance, declare this Series 1979 Bond to be due and payable,
and may proceed to enforce the rights embodied in this Series
1979 Bond, and any and all such other rights as the owner of this
Series 1979 Bond may have, either by suit in equity or by action
at law, or both.
-12-
The Bonds are payable solely from the revenues and
receipts derived from the Loan Agreement and the Project, and
otherwise as provided in the Bond Ordinance, the Collateral
Security Agreement, the Assignment, the Mortgage and the Loan
Agreement. Pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Agreement
amounts sufficient in the aggregate for the prompt payment when
due of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Bonds are to be paid directly to the registered owners of such
Bonds for the account of the Issuer pursuant to the terms and
provisions of the Assignment. Any payments on the Bonds made to
any registered owner or representative thereof by the Borrower or
the Issuer, or for the account of the Borrower or the Issuer,
shall for all purposes and in every respect be deemed a payment
of the Bonds, and such funds shall be applied to the payment of
the Bonds and shall satisfy and discharge the liability of the
Issuer upon the Bonds .
The Bonds are not, and shall not be deemed to consti-
tute, either a general obligation or an indebtedness of the
Issuer, or the State of Illinois or any other political subdivi-
sion thereof, or a loan of credit thereof within the meaning of
any constitutional or statutory provision of the State of Illi-
nois ; but such Bonds shall be payable solely from the funds
provided therefor as provided in the Bond Ordinance. Neither the
faith and credit nor the taxing power of the State of Illinois ,
the Issuer, or any other political subdivision of the State of
Illinois is pledged to the payment of the principal of such
Bonds , the interest or any premium thereon, or other costs inci-
dental thereto, and neither the State of Illinois, nor any other
political subdivision of the State of Illinois shall be liable
thereon. Neither the members of the Issuer nor any person exe-
cuting the Bonds shall be personally liable on the Bonds solely
by reason of issuance thereof.
In certain events , on the conditions , in the manner and
with the effect set forth in the Bond Ordinance, the principal of
all of the Bonds issued under the Bond Ordinance, and then out-
standing, may become or may be declared due and payable before
the stated maturity thereof, together with interest accrued
thereon. Modifications or alterations of the Bond Ordinance may
be made only to the extent and in the circumstances permitted by
the Bond Ordinance.
IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED, RECITED AND DECLARED that all
acts , conditions and things required to exist, happen and be per-
formed precedent to and in the passage and approval of the Bond
Ordinance and the issuance of this Series 1979 Bond do exist,
have happened and have been performed in due time, form and
manner as required by law; and that the issuance of this Series
1979 Bond, together with all other obligations of the Issuer re-
lating hereto, shall not constitute an indebtedness of the Is-
suer, the State of Illinois or of any other political subdivision
thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory
provision of the State of Illinois .

receipt of the purchase price therefor, namely 100% of the aggre-
gate principal amount thereof. The Elgin National Bank is hereby
designated Fiscal Agent for the Issuer for the purposes of, among
other things, (i ) serving as the depository of the proceeds of
the Series 1979 Bond as provided herein, (ii ) establishing and
maintaining the Construction Fund as provided in Section 13

Fiscal Agent are further specified in Section 28 of this Bond
Ordinance . The proceeds of said Series 1979 Bond shall be de-
posited with the Fiscal Agent and applied as provided in Section
3 .3 of the Loan Agreement and Section 13 hereof.
Section 11 . Construction Fund. There is hereby autho-
rized and ordered to be established in the custody of the Fiscal
Agent, a separate trust fund designated the "City of Elgin, Elgin
Business Forms , Inc. Construction Fund" (the "Construction Fund" ) .
The Fiscal Agent shall promptly deposit the proceeds derived from
the sale of the Series 1979 Bond into the Construction Fund. The
Construction Fund shall be used for the purpose of providing
moneys to pay the Cost of the Project, in the manner and as
provided in Section 3 .3 of the Loan Agreement. Any moneys not
required for said purpose shall, when the Project is complete as
provided in the Loan Agreement, be applied by the Fiscal Agent in
the manner provided in Section 3 .3 (k) of the Loan Agreement.
-15-
Section 12 . Investments . As used herein, the term
"Permitted Investments" shall mean those investments permitted by
Section 3 . 8 of the Loan Agreement.
Moneys held in the Construction Fund or in any other
trust fund, upon instructions from the Borrower, shall be in-
vested by the Fiscal Agent in Permitted Investments . No invest-
ment shall be made pursuant to this Section for a period longer
than the time period, determined by the Fiscal Agent, for which
said moneys are not required for the purpose for which they are
intended. All proceeds of, interest on and profit realized from
investments held in any trust fund shall accrue to and become a
part of the appropriate trust fund, and any loss resulting from
such investment should be charged to such fund and paid by the
Borrower on demand from its own funds .
Section 13 . Application of the Construction Fund. The
Fiscal Agent is authorized and directed to apply the amounts in
the Construction Fund to the payment or reimbursement of the Cost
of the Project, as defined in the Loan Agreement.
The Fiscal Agent is hereby authorized and directed to
make payments and reimbursements from the Construction Fund upon
a requisition submitted to the Fiscal Agent and signed by the
Authorized Borrower Representative in conformance in all respects
with the requirements contained in Section 3 .3 of the Loan Agree-
ment. Each requisition shall certify each item thereof as correct
and proper under this Section, and that none of the items for
which the requisition is made has formed the basis for any payment
or reimbursement theretofore made from the Construction Fund, and
shall have attached thereto proof of payment or an invoice, and,
if appropriate, a bill of sale therefor. The Fiscal Agent shall
keep and maintain adequate records pertaining to the Construction
Fund and all disbursements therefrom, and shall file an accounting
thereof with the Issuer and the Borrower annually on the anniver-
sary of the date of the issuance and delivery of the Series 1979
Bond until completion of the Project, as evidenced by the certifi-
cate required by Section 3 . 5 of the Loan Agreement.
Section 14. Completion of the Project. The completion
of the Project anand the payment of all costs and expenses incident
thereto shall be evidenced by the filing with the Bond Purchaser,
the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent of the certificate of the Autho-
rized Borrower Representative required by the provisions of Sec-
tion 3 . 5 of the Loan Agreement. As soon as is practicable, and
in any event not more than sixty (60 ) days from the date of the
certificate referred to in the preceding sentence, any balance
remaining in the Construction Fund other than the amounts retained
by the Fiscal Agent for the Cost of the Project not then due and
payable (said balance being referred to in the Loan Agreement as
"Surplus Construction Fund Money" ) shall be applied as provided
in Section 3 . 3 (k) of the Loan Agreement.
-16-
Section 15 . Payment of Principal and Interest; Condition
of the Issuer' s Obligations . The Issuer covenants that it will
promptly pay, or cause to be paid, the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on the Series 1979 Bond, including the payment
of installments of principal required with respect thereto, at
the place, on the dates and in the manner provided in this Bond
Ordinance and in the Series 1979 Bond according to the true
intent and meaning hereof and thereof. The principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on the Series 1979 Bond are payable solely
from the revenues and receipts derived from or in connection with
the Loan Agreement and the Project (but excluding those amounts
derived by the Issuer pursuant to its Unassigned Rights ) , which
revenues and receipts are hereby specifically pledged to the
payment thereof in the manner and to the extent specified in this
Bond Ordinance and the Assignment. The Bonds are further secured
by, among other things , the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the
Assignment, the Collateral Security Agreement and the Construc-
tion Fund. The Issuer shall not be required under this Bond
Ordinance, the Mortgage, the Collateral Security Agreement, the
Assignment or the Loan Agreement to expend any of its funds other
than (i ) the proceeds derived from the sale of the Series 1979
Bond, ( ii ) the income, revenues, receipts and other moneys derived
from the Loan Agreement or the Project (but excluding revenues
and receipts derived by the Issuer pursuant to its Unassigned
Rights ) , ( iii ) any income or gains therefrom, and ( iv) condemnation
awards or insurance proceeds with respect to the Project. Each
and every covenant herein made, including all covenants made in
the various sections of this Bond Ordinance, is predicated upon
the condition that any obligation for the payment of money incurred
by the Issuer shall not constitute an indebtedness of the Issuer
or a loan of credit thereof within the meaning of any constitu-
tional or statutory provision, but shall be payable solely from
the revenues and receipts derived from or in connection with the
Project, including all moneys received by the Issuer (or its
assignee under the Assignment) under the Loan Agreement, which
revenues and receipts are hereby specifically pledged to the
payment thereof in the manner and to the extent in this Bond
Ordinance and the Assignment specified; and nothing in the Series
1979 Bond or this Bond Ordinance shall be considered to pledge
any other funds or assets of the Issuer.
Any provision of this Bond Ordinance to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Issuer shall not be obligated to take any
action or execute any instrument pursuant to any provision hereof
(other than its obligations to pay principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on the Series 1979 Bond) , unless ( i ) it shall have
been requested to do so by the owner of thereof in writing, and
(ii ) if compliance with such request can reasonably be expected
to result in the incurrence by the Issuer of any fees or expenses ,
it shall have received from the Borrower or the owner assurances
reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer that the Issuer will be
promptly reimbursed for the full amount of such fees and expenses ;
provided, however, that no limitation on the obligations of the
Issuer contained herein by virtue of any lack of assurances
-17-
provided in ( ii ) above shall be deemed to prevent the occurrence
of, and full force and effect of an event of default hereunder.
Section 16 . Particular Covenants of the Issuer.
Except as provided in Section 15 hereof, as long as any of the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series 1979
Bonds remains outstanding and unpaid, or until provision has been

of the Series 1979 Bond as follows :

promptly enforce all of the terms , provisions and conditions of
the Loan Agreement which require performance by, or impose duties
on, the Borrower; and in the event of the occurrence of an event
of default, as defined in the Loan Agreement, will , subject to
the Assignment, the Mortgage and the Collateral Security Agree-
ment, exercise, or cause the same to be exercised, all of the
rights and remedies conferred upon the Issuer by the Loan Agree-
ment for the full and complete protection of the security and
rights of the owner of the Series 1979 Bond.
(b ) The Issuer will enforce collection of the loan
repayments and the payment of other fees, expenses and charges in

fixed, established and required by the Loan Agreement, nor change
or alter the time or times when the same are due and payable
under said Loan Agreement. The Issuer' s obligation to pay the
expenses of such enforcement shall be limited to funds made
available to it for that purpose by the owner of the Series 1979
Bond, or other interested parties .
(c) The Issuer will not consent to any change, amend-
ment, modification or termination of the Loan Agreement, except
otherwise as provided herein or therein.

debt, lien, pledge, assignment, encumbrance or other charge on
said payments or on the property and rights subject to the Loan
Agreement, except as provided in Sections 29 and 30 hereof.
(e) The Issuer covenants that it will faithfully per-
form at all times any and all covenants , undertakings , stipula-
tions and provisions contained in this Bond Ordinance, in the

thereto. The Issuer covenants that it is duly authorized under

extent herein and in the Assignment set forth; that all action on
its part for the issuance of the Series 1979 Bond and the adop-
tion of this Bond Ordinance has been duly and effectively taken;
and that the Series 1979 Bond will be a valid and enforceable
special obligation of the Issuer according to the import thereof.
Section 17 . Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds . The
Loan Agreement provides for the assignment to the Bond Purchaser
of certain insurance proceeds and condemnation awards , damages
and compensation with respect to the Project. The Issuer hereby
agrees to the application of such moneys in said manner.
Section 18 . Amendments or Modifications . Any provi-
sion of the Series 1979 Bond, this Bond Ordinance, the Loan
Agreement, the Mortgage, the Assignment, the Fiscal Agent Agree-
ment or the Collateral Security Agreement may be modified or

the Series 1979 Bond and the owners of all Additional Bonds then

prior approval in writing to any such modification or amendment
if the same would permit, or be construed to permit, any change
in the obligations of the Borrower as set forth in the Loan
Agreement, the Collateral Security Agreement or the Mortgage .
Every amendment or modification of a provision of this Bond Or-
dinance, the Loan Agreement, the Assignment or the Fiscal Agent
Agreement shall be expressed in an ordinance of the Issuer amend-
ing or supplementing the provisions of this Bond Ordinance, and
shall be deemed to be a part of this Bond Ordinance . It shall
not be necessary to note on any outstanding Bond any reference to
such amendment or modification.
No subsequent owner of the Series 1979 Bond shall have
any right to object to such supplemental ordinance, or to object
to any of the terms and provisions contained therein or the
operation thereof, or in any manner to question the propriety of
the adoption thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the Issuer from
adopting the same or from taking any action pursuant to the
provisions thereof.
Upon the adoption of any supplemental ordinance pur-
suant to the provisions of this Section, this Bond Ordinance
shall be, and be deemed to be, modified and amended in accordance
therewith, and the respective rights, duties and obligations
under this Bond Ordinance of the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent, the
Borrower and the owner of the Series 1979 Bond shall thereafter
be determined, exercised and enforced under this Bond Ordinance,
subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments .

Ordinance shall constitute a contract between the Issuer and the
owner of the Series 1979 Bond. The owner of the Series 1979
Bond, in accordance with the provisions of Section 21 hereof and
Section 10 of the Assignment, may sue in any action, either at
law or in equity, to enforce or compel performance of all duties
and obligations required by this Bond Ordinance to be done or

Section 20 . Events of Default. Each of the following
events is hereby defined as , and shall constitute, an "event of
default" :

(c) The occurrence of an "event of default" under the
Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Assignment or the Colla-
teral Security Agreement.
Upon the happening and continuance of any event of
default, and the giving of written notice to the Borrower and the
Issuer of such event, the owner of the Series 1979 Bond may, by
notice in writing delivered to the Issuer and the Borrower,
declare the principal of the Series 1979 Bond then Outstanding
and the interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immedi-
ately without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any
kind, which are hereby waived, and upon any such declaration the
same shall become and be immediately due and payable, anything in
this Bond Ordinance or in the Series 1979 Bond contained to the
contrary notwithstanding. The right of the owner to make any
such declaration as aforesaid, however, is subject to the condi-
tion that if, at any time after such declaration, all overdue
installments of interest and the principal of the Series 1979
Bond which shall have matured by their terms , together with the
reasonable and proper charges , expenses and liabilities of the
owner, the Fiscal Agent and the Issuer, shall either be paid by

the owner, the Fiscal Agent and the Issuer shall be made for such
payment, and the mortgaged and pledged premises shall not have
been sold as provided in this Bond Ordinance, the Mortgage and
the Collateral Security Agreement, and all other existing de-
faults shall have been cured, then, and in every such case, any
such default and its consequences shall , ipso facto, be deemed to
be annulled, but no such annulment shall extend to or affect any
-20-
other default, or impair or exhaust any right or power consequent
thereon.
The Issuer hereby grants to the Borrower full authority
for the account of the Issuer to perform any covenant or obliga-
tion, the non-performance of which is alleged in any notice
received by the Borrower to constitute an event of default, in
the name and place of the Issuer, with full power to do any and
all things and acts to the same extent as the Issuer and perform
any such things and acts with the power of substitution.
For purposes of this Section, notice shall be deemed to
have been given, if given in the manner required by Section 9 . 1
of the Loan Agreement for the giving of notices thereunder.
Section 21 . Foreclosure and Enforcement of Remedies .
Upon the happening and continuance of any event of default, and
the giving of notice to the Borrower and the Issuer as provided

under the Enabling Ordinance, the Loan Agreement, the Assignment,
the Mortgage, the Collateral Security Agreement and this Bond
Ordinance forthwith by such suits , actions or special proceedings
in equity or at law, or proceedings in the office of any board or
officer having jurisdiction, whether for the specific performance
of any covenant or agreement contained in this Bond Ordinance,
the Loan Agreement, the Assignment, the Collateral Security
Agreement, or the Mortgage, or in aid of the execution of any
power granted herein, therein or in the Enabling Ordinance, or
for the enforcement of any legal or equitable rights or remedies ,
including, with the prior written consent of all Bond owners , the
sale of all or any part of the Project, subject to statutory
requirements , if any, to the highest bidder and all right, title
and interest, claim and demand therein and thereto, and all right
of redemption thereof, as the owner shall determine.
In the enforcement of any right or remedy under this
Bond Ordinance, the Assignment, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage,
the Collateral Security Agreement, or the Enabling Ordinance, the
owner of the Series 1979 Bond shall be entitled to sue for,
enforce payment on and receive any and all amounts then due and
unpaid or becoming due from the Issuer, for principal, interest
or otherwise under any provision of this Bond Ordinance, the
Enabling Ordinance, the Loan Agreement, the Assignment, the
Collateral Security Agreement, the Mortgage, or the Series 1979
Bond, with interest on overdue payments at the rate or rates of
interest specified in the Bonds, together with any and all costs
and expenses of collection and of all proceedings hereunder and
thereunder, without prejudice to any other right or remedy of the
owner, and to recover and enforce judgment or decree against the
Issuer, but solely as provided herein and therein, for any por-
tion of such amounts remaining unpaid, with interest, costs and
expenses , and to collect (but solely from the moneys available
for said purpose) , in any manner provided by law, the moneys
adjudged or decreed to be payable.

Section 22 . Application of Revenues and Receipts After
Default. All moneys received by the owner of the Series 1979
Bond pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provi-
sions of this Bond Ordinance shall, after payment of the costs
and expenses of the proceedings resulting in the collection of
such money, and of the expenses, liabilities and advances incurred
or made by the owner, be applied to the payment of the Bonds .
Whenever the Series 1979 Bond shall have been paid un-
der the provisions of this Section, and all expenses and charges
of the owner of the Series 1979 Bond, the Fiscal Agent and the
Issuer shall have been paid, any balance remaining shall be paid
to or upon the order of the Borrower.
Section 23 . Waivers of Events of Default; Actions ty
the Owner. The owner of the Series 1979 Bond may waive any event
of default hereunder. All rights of action under this Bond.
Ordinance, the Assignment, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement, the
Collateral Security Agreement or the Series 1979 Bond, may be en-
forced without the production thereof at any trial or other
proceeding relating thereto .
Section 24 . Effect of Discontinuance of Proceedings .
If any proceeding taken on account of any event of default shall
have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have
been determined adversely to the owner of the Series 1979 Bond,
then and in every such case, the Borrower, the Issuer and the
owner shall be restored, respectively, to its former obligations
and rights hereunder.
Section 25 . Remedies not Exclusive; Delay or Omission.
No remedy by the terms of this Bond Ordinance, the Assignment,
the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Security Agreement or the
Mortgage conferred upon or reserved to the owner of the Series
1979 Bond is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and
each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to any other remedy given under this Bond Ordinance, the
Assignment, the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Security Agreement
or the Mortgage, now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.
No delay or omission to exercise any right or power
arising upon any event of default shall impair any right or
power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default
or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by
this Bond Ordinance, the Assignment, the Loan Agreement, the
Collateral Security Agreement or the Mortgage may be exercised
from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the
owner of the Series 1979 Bond.
Section 26 . Acceleration in the Event of Default. In
the event that the principal of or interest on the Series 1979
Bond is not paid according to the terms hereof and thereof either
on maturity, mandatory prepayment, call for redemption or the
occurrence of an event of default under this Bond Ordinance, the
-22-
Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, or the Assignment, the owner of the
Series 1979 Bond, in accordance with the provisions of Section 10
of the Assignment, may, by written notice, effective upon deposit
in the mail, and if sent by certified or registered mail, given
to the Issuer, declare the principal of the Series 1979 Bond to
be due and payable immediately; and upon such declaration given
as aforesaid, the principal of said Bond shall be immediately due
and payable, anything in the Series 1979 Bond or in this Bond
Ordinance contained to the contrary notwithstanding. The owner
of the Series 1979 Bond may rescind and annul such declaration
and its consequences , but no such rescission or annulment shall
extend to or affect any other default, or impair any rights
consequent thereon.
Section 27 . Defeasance . If the Issuer shall pay or
cause to be paid, or there shall otherwise be paid, to the owners
of the Bonds , or their representative, the principal or redemption
premium, if any, and interest due or to become due thereon, at
the times and in the manner stipulated in this Bond Ordinance,
and all other amounts due under this Bond Ordinance, the Mort-
gage, the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Security Agreement and
the Assignment are paid in full, then the pledge of any revenues
and receipts from or in connection with the Project under this
Bond Ordinance, the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Security
Agreement, the Mortgage and the Assignment, and the estate and
rights hereby, in the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement, the Colla-
teral Security Agreement and the Assignment granted, and all
covenants , agreements and other obligations of the Issuer to the
owners of the Bonds , shall thereupon cease, terminate and become
void, and be discharged and satisfied. In such event, the Bond
owners shall cancel and discharge the lien of this Bond Ordinance,
the Assignment, the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Security
Agreement, and the Mortgage, and shall execute and deliver to the
Issuer and the Borrower, and record in all offices appropriate
therefor, all such instruments as may be appropriate to satisfy
such lien and to evidence such discharge and satisfaction, and
the Fiscal Agent and the Issuer shall pay over or deliver to the
Borrower or its order all moneys or securities held by them or
their representative pursuant to this Bond Ordinance which are
not required for the payment of the principal of, redemption
premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds not theretofore paid or
redeemed and all other amounts due under this Bond Ordinance .
Section 28 . Provisions Relating to the Fiscal Agent.
(a) The Fiscal Agent shall signify its acceptance of
its duties and obligations hereunder, under the Assignment, the
Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the Collateral Security Agree-
ment by its execution of the Fiscal Agent Agreement. All provi-
sions of this Section shall be construed as extending to and
including all of the rights, duties and obligations imposed upon
the Fiscal Agent under the Assignment, the Loan Agreement, the
Mortgage and the Collateral Security Agreement as fully for all
intents and purposes as if this Section were contained therein.
-23-
(b) (i ) The Fiscal Agent shall have no responsibility
for the validity or sufficiency of this Bond Ordinance, the
Assignment, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Collateral
Security Agreement or the security provided hereunder and there-
under, or for the due execution hereof and thereof by the Issuer,
or in respect of the title or the value of the Project, or in
respect of the validity of the Bonds, or to see to the recording
or filing of this Bond Ordinance, the Assignment, the Loan Agree-
ment, the Mortgage, the Collateral Security Agreement, any financ-
ing statement or any other document or instrument whatsoever.
The recitals, statements and representations contained in this
Bond Ordinance and in the Series 1979 Bond shall be construed as
having been made by and on the part of the Issuer, and not by and
on the part of the Fiscal Agent, and the Fiscal Agent does not
assume any responsibility for the correctness of the same.
(ii ) The Fiscal Agent shall not be liable or responsi-
ble for the failure of the Issuer to perform any act required of
it by this Bond Ordinance, or for the loss of any moneys arising
