The Paying Agent will mail interest <br />payments on the Bonds on each interest payment date to the owners of the Bonds at the addresses <br />listed on the registration books maintained by the Registrar for such purpose at the close of <br />business on the date which shall be the fifteenth day (whether or not a business day) of the calendar <br />month next proceeding the applicable payment date, or, at the request of the holder of Bonds, by <br />bank wire transfer to the account of such holder, all as described in the Bond Resolution.
