form and with guaranty of signature satisfactory to the Board or the Bond
Registrar, duly executed by the Registered Owner or by his duly authorized

Upon surrender to the Bond Registrar for transfer or exchange of any
Bond accompanied by an assignment or written authorization for exchange,
whichever is applicable, duly executed by the Registered Owner or his attorney

Registered Owner or the designated transferee or transferees, as the case may
be, a new fully registered Bond or Bonds of authorized denominations and of the
same maturity and interest rate, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
principal amount that remains outstanding with respect to such Bond so
surrendered.
The Bond Registrar or the Board may require payment from the
Registered Owner or his transferee of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer
or exchange of the Bonds. Such charges and expenses shall be paid before any
such new Bond shall be delivered.

shall be secured by this Resolution, and shall be entitled to all of the
security and benefits hereof to the same extent as the Bonds surrendered.

any Bond as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not such
Bond shall be overdue, and shall not be bound by any notice to the contrary.

Bond shall be delivered to the Bond Registrar for payment of the principal

amount thereof upon maturity or redemption, or for replacement, transfer or
exchange, such Bond shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Bond Registrar, and
counterparts of a certificate of destruction evidencing such destruction shall
be furnished to the County.

any Bond shall become mutilated, or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the County

such mutilated Bond or in lieu of and substitution for the Bond destroyed,
stolen or lost, upon the Registered Owner furnishing the County and the Bond
Registrar proof of his ownership thereof and the loss thereof (if lost, stolen
or destroyed) and satisfactory indemnity and complying with such other
reasonable regulations and conditions as the Board may prescribe and paying such
expenses as the Board and the Bond Registrar may incur. All Bonds so
surrendered shall be cancelled by the Bond Registrar. If any such Bonds shall
have matured or be about to mature, instead of issuing a substitute Bond, the
County may pay the same, upon being indemnified as aforesaid, and if such Bond
be lost, stolen or destroyed, without surrender thereof.
Any such duplicate Bonds issued pursuant to this section shall
constitute original, additional, contractual obligations on the part of the
County whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Bonds be at any time found
by anyone, and such duplicate Bonds shall be entitled to equal and proportionate
benefits and rights as to lien on and source and security for payment from the
funds, as hereinafter pledged, to the same extent as all other Bonds issued
hereunder.

SECTION 13. BONDS NOT GENERAL OBLIGATIONS. The Bonds shall not be or
constitute general or moral obligations or a pledge of the faith, credit or
taxing power of the County, the State of Florida or any political subdivision
thereof or an indebtedness of any of them as "bonds" within the meaning of the
Constitution of the State of Florida, but shall be special obligations of the
County payable solely from and secured solely by a lien upon and a pledge of the
Pledged Funds. No Registered Owner shall ever have the right to compel the
exercise of the ad valorem taxing power of the County, the State of Florida or
any political subdivision thereof, or taxation in any form of any real property
therein, to pay the Bonds or the interest thereon, or be entitled to payment of
such principal and interest from any funds of the County other than the Pledged
Funds.
SECTION 14. SECURITY FOR BONDS. The payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds shall be secured forthwith equally
and ratably by a pledge of and a first lien upon the Pledged Funds. The County
does hereby irrevocably pledge the Pledged Funds to the payment of the principal
of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, subject, however, to Section 19.
Nothing in this Resolution shall constitute or be construed to
constitute a conveyance or mortgage of any sewage disposal system or of any
sewer system improvements or any part of any of the foregoing.
SECTION 15. COVENANTS OF THE COUNTY. For so long as any of the
principal of and interest on any of the Bonds shall be outstanding and unpaid,
or until there shall have been set apart in the Revenue Fund hereinafter
created, a sum sufficient to pay, when due, the entire principal amount of the
Bonds remaining unpaid, together with interest accrued and interest to accrue
thereon through such payment date, or until the provisions of Section 19 hereof
have been satisfied, the County covenants with the Registered Owners of the
Bonds that:
A. REVENUE FUND. The County shall create, establish and
maintain a special fund, which is hereby created, established, and
designated the "Indian River County Special Assessment Revenue Bonds,
Series 1990, Revenue Fund" (the "Revenue Fund").
B. DISPOSITION OF REVENUES. All Revenues received by or on
behalf of the County shall constitute trust funds and shall be deposited
into the Revenue Fund. Money on deposit from time to time in the Revenue
Fund shall be applied in the following manner and order of priority:
(1) First, the County shall deposit in a fund to be
known as the "Rockridge Special Assessment Bond Sinking Fund"
(herein the "Sinking Fund"), which is hereby created and
established, such sum as will be sufficient to pay the
interest as the same shall become due and payable on the
- 19 -
Bonds on the next two interest payment dates and such sum as
will be sufficient to pay, as the same becomes due and
payable, the principal on the Bonds stated to mature during
the next twelve (12) months. Such deposits shall take into
account the sums, if any, deposited in the Sinking Fund out
of the proceeds from the sale of the Bonds to pay interest
thereon. In addition, there shall be deposited in the Sinking
Fund amounts sufficient to pay the fees and charges of the
Paying Agent. In the event the Revenues on deposit in the
Revenue Fund and the Sinking Fund are insufficient for such
purpose, the County shall transfer money to the Sinking Fund
from the Bond Redemption Account.
(2) Second, the County shall deposit into an account
in the Sinking Fund to be known as the "Bond Amortization
Account", which is hereby created and established, such sums
as are required to pay the principal on the Term Bonds
required to be redeemed during the next twelve (12) months.
In the event the Revenues on deposit in the Revenue Fund and
the Bond Amortization Account are insufficient for such
purpose, the County shall transfer money to the Bond
Amortization Account from the Bond Redemption Account.
(3) Third, the balance shall be deposited into an
account within the Sinking Fund to be known as the "Bond
Redemption Account", which is hereby created. Money in the
Bond Redemption Account shall be used (a) when and to the
extent practicable, to redeem Bonds subject to optional
redemption or to purchase Bonds at a price not to exceed the
current redemption price thereof and (b) to remedy any
deficiency in the Sinking Fund, including the Bond
Amortization Account, as provided herein.
When the principal of and interest on all the Bonds shall have been
paid, or there shall have been set apart in the Funds established under this
Resolution a sum sufficient to pay when due the entire principal of the Bonds
remaining unpaid and interest accrued and interest to accrue thereon through
such payment date, any other money remaining on deposit to the credit of the
any such Funds shall be transferred to the impact Fee Trust Fund, if the same
is then still in existence, and, if not, then transferred to the water and
sewer enterprise fund of the County or used by the County for any lawful
purpose.
C. PLEDGED FUNDS AND INVESTMENT OF FUNDS. The Revenue Fund,
the Sinking Fund, the Bond Amortization Account and the Bond Redemption
Account shall be Pledged Funds, shall constitute trust funds for the
purposes provided herein for such funds and shall be used only for the
- 20 -
purposes and in the manner provided herein. All moneys in all funds and
accounts created or established hereunder shall be continuously secured
in the manner by which deposits of public funds are required to be
secured by the laws of the State of Florida. Moneys on deposit in the
Revenue Fund and the Sinking Fund may be invested and reinvested only in
Authorized Investments maturing not later than the date on which the
moneys therein will be needed for the purposes of such funds.
Any and all income received by the County from such
investments shall be deposited into the Rebate Account hereunder to the
extent required and the excess, if any, into the Revenue Fund.
D. CONSTRUCTION OF PROJECT. The County has acquired and
constructed the Rockridge Wastewater System and has applied funds in the
Impact Fee Trust Fund to payment of the costs thereof.
E. ENFORCEMENT OF PAYMENT OF ASSESSMENTS. The County will
receive, collect and enforce the payment of the Assessments imposed by
the County, and the interest, prepayment charges and penalties in
connection therewith, in the manner prescribed by this Resolution and
all other resolutions, ordinances or laws thereunto appertaining; and
will pay and deposit the proceeds of such Assessments and the interest,
prepayment charges and penalties in connection therewith, as received,
into the Revenue Fund. If any Assessment shall be either in whole or in
part annulled, vacated, or set aside by the judgment of any court, or if
the County shall determine that any such Assessment is so irregular or
defective that it cannot be collected or enforced, or if the County shall
have omitted to make such Assessment when it might have done so, the
County covenants that it shall take all necessary and appropriate steps
to cause a new Assessment to be made against the property to which such
Assessment appertained.
F. REMOVAL OF ASSESSMENT LIENS. The County shall not
release or extinguish the lien of any Assessment upon any property, or
any portion or portions thereof at the request of the property owner,
except as provided herein. The County shall not release or extinguish
the lien upon an entire property without the payment of the entire
outstanding amount of the Assessments against the property together with
appropriate interest and/or prepayment charges. The County shall not
release or extinguish the lien upon a portion of a property without the
payment of at least a pro -rata portion of the outstanding amount of the
Assessment against the property, such portion to be based upon fair
market value of the property as established by appraisals acceptable to
the County, together with appropriate interest and/or prepayment charges.
All money received in connection with the release or extinguishment of
any Assessment lien shall be deposited in the Revenue Fund.
- 21 -
G. SUFFICIENT CAPACITY. The County shall use its best
efforts to have available from time to time sufficient wastewater
treatment capacity to service the property upon which an Assessment is
imposed.
H. NO ISSUANCE OF OTHER OBLIGATIONS PAYABLE FROM REVENUES.
The County will not issue any other obligations payable from the Revenues
nor voluntarily create or cause to be created any debt, lien, pledge,
assignment, encumbrance or other charge upon the Revenues.
I. BOOKS AND RECORDS; AUDITS. The County shall keep books
and records of the collection of the Pledged Funds, including the
Assessments and the Revenues, which such books and records shall be kept
separate and apart from all other books and records of the County. The
Clerk of the Board shall, at the end of each Fiscal Year, prepare a
written report setting forth the collections received, the number and
amount of delinquencies, the proceedings taken to enforce collections and
cure delinquencies and an estimate of time for the conclusion of such
legal proceedings. Such report shall be audited by the certified public
accountants of the County as part of the annual County audit. Copies of
such reports shall, upon written request, be mailed to the Registered
Owners of the Bonds.
J. ARBITRAGE. No use of the proceeds of the Bonds will be
made which will cause the Bonds to be or become "arbitrage Bonds" within
the meaning of Section 103(b)(2) and Section 148 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and the regulations implementing
said Sections that duly have been published in the Federal Register or
with any other applicable regulations implementing said Sections, and the
County further covenants to comply with all other requirements of the
Code if and to the extent applicable to maintain continuously the Federal
income tax exemption of interest on the Bonds.
K. ARBITRAGE REBATE. Unless the Bonds are exempt from the
arbitrage rebate requirement of Section 148(f) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, pursuant to one of the exceptions provided
therein, the County shall at least annually transfer appropriate amounts
from the funds and accounts hereunder to which income on investments has
been deposited, into an account to be known as the "Special Assessment
Revenue Bonds, Series 1990, Rebate Account" (herein referred to as the
"Rebate Account") sufficient to pay to the United States of America all
amounts due with respect to the Bonds under the provisions of Section 148
(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and supplemented,
or under similar provisions of subsequent federal revenue laws. The
earnings on the Rebate Account shall be added to and become a part of the
Rebate Account. Moneys in the Rebate Account shall only be used to pay
the amounts due to the United States of America under said Section of the
- 22 -
Code as the same shall become due and payable. It is the intent of this
paragraph to provide for payment of all amounts due under said Section
of the Code with respect to the Bonds, in such installments and at such
times as may be required by said Section of the Code. In the event of
any amendment to the Code or the promulgation of regulations under the
Code which provide or require otherwise than as provided or required in
this paragraph, this paragraph shall be deemed to be amended to
incorporate such amendments or regulations, to the extent applicable, and
any provisions hereof which conflict with the provisions thereof shall
be deemed to be null and void.
L. TAX COVENANTS. The County covenants that it will not
take any action or fail to take any action with respect to the proceeds
of the Bonds that would result in loss of the exclusion from gross income
for federal income tax purposes pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code
of interest paid on outstanding Bonds which, when initially issued and
sold, were the subject of an opinion of counsel to the effect that
interest thereon was so excludable.
With respect to the Bonds, the County covenants that any use
of the Rockridge Wastewater System in the trade or business of any person
or entity other than the County, including use under a take -or -pay
contract or certain management contracts ("private business use,,), if
such use is related to the County's use of the Rockridge Wastewater
System, will not exceed more than ten percent (108) of the use of the
Rockridge Wastewater System, or if such private business use in unrelated
or disproportionate to the County's use of the Rockridge Wastewater
System, will not exceed more than five percent (58) of the use of the
Rockridge Wastewater System.
The County covenants that no more than ten percent (108) of
the Revenues will be derived directly or indirectly from payments from
any nongovernmental user, other than payments by a nongovernmental user
as a member of the general public.
M. POWER TO ISSUE BONDS AND PLEDGE PLEDGED FUNDS. The
County is duly authorized under all applicable laws to create and issue
the Bonds and to adopt this Resolution and to pledge the Pledged Funds
in the manner and to the extent provided herein. Except to the extent
otherwise provided in this Resolution, the Pledged Funds are not pledged
or hypothecated and, upon issuance of the Bonds, will be free and clear
of any pledge, lien, charge or encumbrance thereon or with respect
thereto prior to, or of equal rank with, the security interest, pledge
and assignment created by this Resolution, and all action on the part of
the County to that end has been and will be duly and validly taken. The
Bonds and the provisions of this Resolution are and will be valid and
legally enforceable obligations of the County in accordance with their
- 23 -
terms and the terms of this Resolution. The County shall at all times,
to the extent permitted by law, defend, preserve and protect the pledge
of the Pledged Funds and all the rights of the Registered Owners under
this Resolution against .M claims and demands of all persons whomsoever.
N. BONDS SECURED BY PLEDGE OF PLEDGED FUNDS. The Bonds
issued hereunder shall be direct and special obligations of the County
payable in accordance with their terms and the provisions of this
Resolution from the Pledged Funds hereby pledged for the benefit of the
Registered Owners, subject to the provisions of this Resolution
permitting the application thereof for the purposes and on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Resolution.
The Pledged Funds shall immediately be subject to the lien
and charge of this Resolution without any physical delivery thereof or
further act, and the lien and charge of this Resolution shall be valid
and binding as against all parties having claims of any kind in tort,
contract or otherwise, against the County, irrespective of whether such
parties have notice thereof.
0. FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS. The designation and establishment
of the various funds and accounts created herein does not require the
establishment of any completely independent, self -balancing funds as such
term is commonly defined and used in governmental accounting, but rather
is intended solely to constitute an earmarking of certain revenues and
assets as provided herein.
SECTION 16. SALE OF BONDS. The Bonds may be sold at public or private
sale pursuant to the Act, all at one time or from time to time, as shall be
provided by subsequent resolution of the Board.

accrued interest and premium, if any, received from the sale of the Bonds shall
be deposited and applied by the County as follows:
A. The accrued interest plus, if applicable, as specified
by subsequent resolution of the Board, an amount equal to the interest
on the Bonds for a reasonable period of time from the date of issuance
of the Bonds shall be deposited into the Sinking Fund and be applied
exclusively for the payment of the interest first becoming due on the
Bonds.
B. The amount necessary to pay all fees, costs and expenses
associated with financial reports, studies and projections, legal fees,
fees of financial advisors, printing expenses, premiums and expenses
related to insuring or rating the Bonds and all other similar costs and

construction of the Rockridge Wastewater System.

such Registered Owners may, by suit, action, mandamus or other proceedings in
any court of competent jurisdiction, protect and enforce any and all rights,
including the right to the appointment of a receiver, existing under the laws
of the State of Florida, or granted and contained herein, and may enforce and
compel the performance of all duties herein or by any applicable statutes
required to be performed by the County or by any officer thereof, including the
collection of the Assessments.
SECTION 19. DEFEASANCE. If at any time the County shall have paid,
or shall have made provision for payment of, the principal, interest and
premiums, if any, with respect to any of the Bonds, then, and in that event, the
pledge of and lien on the Pledged Funds in favor of the Registered Owners of
such Bonds shall be no longer in effect. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, the deposit of Federal Securities, bank certificates of deposit fully

principal of and interest on which will be sufficient to pay, when due, the
principal, interest and premiums, if any, on such Bonds, shall be considered

County to call any of the outstanding Bonds for redemption prior to maturity
pursuant to any applicable optional redemption provisions, or to impair the
discretion of the County in determining whether to exercise any such option for
early redemption.

modification or amendment of this Resolution, or of any resolution amendatory
hereof or supplemental hereto, may be made without the consent in writing of the
Registered Owners of 518 or more in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then
outstanding affected by such adverse material modification or amendment;
provided, however, that no modification or amendment shall permit a change in
the maturity of any Bonds or a reduction in the rate of interest thereon or in
the amount of the principal obligation thereof, or affect the unconditional
- 25 -
promise of the County to levy, impose and/or collect the Assessments or other
receipts and revenues, if any, pledged hereunder, as herein provided, or to pay
the principal of and interest on the Bonds as the same shall become due from the
Assessments, or reduce such percentage of Registered Owners of such Bonds,
required above, to consent to such modifications or amendments, without the
consent of the Registered Owners of all of the Bonds affected thereby.

agreements or provisions of this Resolution should be held contrary to any
express provision of law or contrary to the policy of express law, though not
expressly prohibited, or against public policy, or shall for any reason
whatsoever be held invalid, then such covenants, agreements or provisions shall
be null and void and shall be deemed separate from the remaining covenants,
agreements and provisions hereof, and shall in no way affect the validity
