(iv) the City anticipates awarding the sale of the Bonds to the bidder who provides a proposal <br /> with the lowest true interest cost, as set forth in this Terms of Proposal (See "AWARD" <br /> herein). <br /> Any bid submitted pursuant to this Terms of Proposal shall be considered a firm offer for the purchase of <br /> the Bonds, as specified in the proposal. The Purchaser shall constitute an "underwriter" as said term is <br /> defined in the Regulation. By submitting its proposal, the Purchaser confirms that it shall require any <br /> agreement among underwriters, a selling group agreement, or other agreement to which it is a party <br /> relating to the initial sale of the Bonds, to include provisions requiring compliance with the provisions of <br /> the Code and the Regulation regarding the initial sale of the Bonds. <br /> If all of the requirements of a "competitive sale" are not satisfied, the City shall advise the Purchaser of <br /> such fact prior to the time of award of the sale of the Bonds to the Purchaser. In such event, any <br /> proposal submitted will not be subject to cancellation or withdrawal. Within twenty-four (24)hours <br /> of the notice of award of the sale of the Bonds, the Purchaser shall advise the City and Springsted if 10% <br /> of any maturity of the Bonds (and, if different interest rates apply within a maturity, to each separate <br /> CUSIP number within that maturity) has been sold to the public and the price at which it was sold. The <br /> City will treat such sale price as the "issue price" for such maturity, applied on a maturity-by-maturity <br /> basis. The City will not require the Purchaser to comply with that portion of the Regulation commonly <br /> described as the "hold-the-offering-price" requirement for the remaining maturities, but the Purchaser <br /> may elect such option. If the Purchaser exercises such option,the City will apply the initial offering price <br /> to the public provided in the proposal as the issue price for such maturities. If the Purchaser does not <br /> exercise that option, it shall thereafter promptly provide the City and Springsted the prices at which 10% <br /> of such maturities are sold to the public; provided such determination shall be made and the City and <br /> Springsted notified of such prices whether or not the closing date has occurred, until the 10% test has <br /> been satisfied as to each maturity of the Bonds or until all of the Bonds of a maturity have been sold. <br /> GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT <br /> To have its proposal considered for award, the Purchaser is required to submit a good faith deposit to the <br /> City in the amount of$100,000 (the "Deposit") no later than 1:00 P.M., Central Time on the Sale Date. <br /> The Deposit may be delivered as described herein in the form of either (i) a certified or cashier's check <br /> payable to the City; or (ii) a wire transfer. The Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the timely <br /> delivery of its Deposit whether by check or wire transfer. Neither the City nor Springsted have any <br /> liability for delays in the receipt of the Deposit. If the Deposit is not received by the specified time, the <br /> City may, at its sole discretion,reject the proposal of the lowest bidder, direct the second lowest bidder to <br /> submit a Deposit, and thereafter award the sale to such bidder. <br /> Certified or Cashier's Check. A Deposit made by certified or cashier's check will be considered timely <br /> delivered to the City if it is made payable to the City and delivered to Springsted Incorporated, <br /> 380 Jackson Street, Suite 300, Saint Paul,Minnesota 55101 by the time specified above. <br /> Wire Transfer. A Deposit made by wire will be considered timely delivered to the City upon submission <br /> of a federal wire reference number by the specified time. Wire transfer instructions will be available from <br /> Springsted following the receipt and tabulation of proposals. The successful bidder must send an e-mail <br /> including the following information: (i)the federal reference number and time released; (ii)the amount of <br /> the wire transfer; and(iii)the issue to which it applies. <br /> A-4 <br /> 529084v1 JSB EL185-55 <br />
