The additional funds required to complete this project, and any other funds required for acquisition of property or capital improvements to the utility,or for the payment of obligations heretofore or hereafter incurred for such property or improvements, other than bonds payable from the Revenue Bond Account described in Section 5.03 below, shall be supplied from surplus net revenues now on hand and to be received in the Surplus Account described in Section 5.04.

Upon each distribution of moneys re- ceived as gross revenues of said utility there shall be credited to this account such portion thereof as is needed to make current and prompt payment of all costs, theretofore incurred, of oper- ation and maintenance as above defined, plus a reaonable excess to be held as a reserve for emergencies. All _gross revenues from time to time received in excess of the amounts hereby approplated to the Operation and Maintenance Account are herein termed "net revenues "" . 1 22 . 5.03 A Revenue Bond Account, to which there shall be credited the accrued interest paid by the purchaser of said bonds, and the amounts of net revenues herein appropriated and pledged, and from which there shall be paid the principal of and interest on the bonds authorized by this resolution and any additional bonds authorized in paragraph 6 to be made payable from the net revenues on a parity therewith, as such principal and interest become due, the excess from time to time in the account to be held as a reserve for the further security of said payments. There is hereby appropriated to the Revenue Bond Account out of the net revenues a sum to be credited thereto in each month, equal to not less than one - twelfth of the principal and interest to become due and pay- able from the account within the then next succeeding twelve months; and also the additional sum of $2.,000 each month until there has been accumulated a reserve balance, to be maintained thereafter by the transfer of additional net revenues whenever necessary, in an amount at all times equal to the maximum amount of principal and interest to become due and payable from the account in any subsequent fiscal ,year. This reserve shall be used only if and to the extent necessary to pay principal or interest due for which other funds are insufficient and, if ever so used, shall be restored from the next net revenues received thereafter. 5.04 A Surplus Account, to which there shall be credited as received all net revenues over and above, the amounts appro- priated to the Revenue Bond Account. Money from time to time in the Surplus Account may by resolution of the Commission be used for the repair, replacement, improvement or extension of the utility, or may be transferred to the General Fund of the City if directed by the Commission, and used for any proper municipal purpose authorized by the City Council, but all moneys on hand in this account at any time shall be available and shall be used to the full extent necessary to restore any deficiency in the Revenue Bond Account. 6. The Hutchinson Utilities Commission, on behalf of the City of Hutchinson, hereby certifies and represents to and covenants and agrees with the purchaser and the holders from time to time of all bonds issued under the authorities contained and recited in this resolution (collectively referred to as "the bonds ") as follows: 6.01 It will cause proper and adequate books of account to be kept, reflecting all income and expenditures relating to the utility and its operation, which books shall be open to inspection and copying at all reasonable times by the holder of any of the bonds or his agent or attorney, and will, without cost, furnish copies of any portions thereof reasonably requested by any bond- holder. It will cause an annual statement of the inc one and ex- penses of the utility to be prepared within thirty days after the 23• close of each fiscal ,year, and will cause the utility books and records to be audited annually by a certified public accountant, and will furnish a copy of the statement and re- port of audit without cost to the purchaser of each issue of bonds, and will furnish a copy of the annual statement with- out cost to any bondholder requesting the same. 6.02 It has heretofore established rates and charges for all services, facilities, products and by- products of the utility which are estimated to be sufficient to pay all costs of operation and maintenance of the utility as incurred and to produce net revenues adequate to meet all payments of principal and interest on the bonds herein authorized and to create and maintain the reserve herein agreed, and will, subject to con- currence of the City Council, revise the same whenever and as often as necessary for this purpose. 6.03 No additional bonds or other obligations will be issued or incurred and made payable from or a charge upon the net re- venues, except as follows: 6.031 Refunding revenue bonds may be issued if and to the extent necesaary to pay a matured bond or bonds of the issue herein authorized which cannot be paid in full from net revenues then on hand and available therefor under the provisions of this resolution; but nothing herein shall require the holder of any bond to accept a refunding revenue bond in exchange therefor. 6.032 Additional revenue bonds may be issued to finance capital improvements or replacements of utility properties, if the average of the annual net revenues received during the two fiscal years immediately preceding such issuance shall have been not less than one and one- quarter times the largest amount of principal and interest to become due and payable in any sub- sequent fiscal year of the term of the then outstanding bonds payable from the Revenue Bond Account , on such bonds and on the additional bonds so issued, and if by the resolution authorizing such additional bonds the City shall provide for the increase of the bond reserve within a period not exceeding four ,years to an amount equal to the largest amount of principal and interest thereafter payable in any fiscal year from the Revenue Bond Account. For the purpose of this paragraph 6.032, in the event of any change in rates and charges for utility service prior to the issuance of such additional bonds, the net revenues for any period prior to such change shall be deemed to be those which would have been received from the rates and charges in effect at the time of such issue, applied to the quantities of service actually furnished and deducting operation and maintenance charges actually incurred during the fiscal years involved. 6.033 Except as provided in Sections 6.031 and 6.032, any additional bonds or other obligations which are made payable from 24. or a charge upon the net revenues will be expressly made so payable subject to the lien and charge thereon in favor of the bonds herein authorized. 6.04 Tf moneys in the Revenue Bond Account shall at any time be insufficient for the payment of principal and interest then due on the outstanding bonds payable from that account, and can- not be made sufficient by transfer of moneys from the Surplus Account, the available moneys shall be first applied to the pro rata payment of the interest then accrued on all such bonds, and the remainder shall be applied to the payment of principal in order of the maturity dates of said bonds, or, as between bonds having the same maturity date, in order of date of issue, or, as between bonds having the same issue and maturity dates, in order of serial numbers, lowest numbers first. 6.05 As long as any of the bonds are outstanding it will continue its ownership and operation of said utility as a revenue - producing utility and 'convenience, and will not autho- rize or enfranchise the establishment or operation of any other utility providing services or commodities in competition there- with, and will maintain the utility free from all liens on the physical properties thereof and in good and efficient operating condition. 6.06 If any properties constituting capital assets of the utility shall be sold or disposed of, it shall be only at their fair market value, and the proceeds of such sale or disposition shall either be used to procure other capital assets or applied to pay principal of and interest on the bonds. No such sale or sales shall be made at times or prices such as to imperil the prompt and full payment of the bonds and interest thereon. 6.07 It will procure and keep in force insurance on the utility properties protecting against loss or damage by fire, tornado, windstorm, flood and other causes customarily insured against for like properties, and insurance protecting against liability of the City for injury to persons or property, due to any act or omission in operation of the utility, and will pro- cure and keep in force suitable fidelity bonds covering employees handling moneys of said utility, such policies and bonds to be given by insurers in good standing and in such amounts as the Commission shall determine will be adequate to protect the City and the holders of revenue bonds issued hereunder against loss due to any such casualty; and in event of any such loss the pro- ceeds shall be used to repair or restore the damage or to retire the bonds. 6.08 It will cause all gross9 revenues derived from the sale and availability of electricity and any and all other services, products and by- products of the light and power plant to be creditled as received to the Light and Power Plant Fund, and will furnish no free service, and will hold all such revenues on deposit in a duly qualified depositary bank or banks and secured as required by law; except that money held in the reserve agreed to be maintained in the Revenue Bond Account may be invested in general obligations of the United States Government, and money in the Surplus Account may be invested in any securities authorized by Minnesota Statutes, Sections 475.56 and 475.66, or future acts amendatory thereof or supplemental thereto. 6.09 Holders of 20% or more in aggregate principal amount of the bonds at any time outstanding may, either at law or in equity, by suit, action or other proceedings, protect and en- force the rights of all holders of bonds issued hereunder which are then outstanding, and enforce and compel the performance of any and all of the covenants and duties herein specified to be performed by the City and its officers and agents, including the fixing and maintaining of rates and charges and the proper segregation and use of the revenues derived therefrom. 6.10 Each and all of the provisions of this resolution, in- cluding those contained in the form of bond and coupon, which in anywise tend to secure or assure prompt and full payment of the principal of and interest on bonds issued hereunder will be promptly and faithfully performed and carried out by the City and its officers and agents. 7.
