and provisions upon which the tax levy and the liens, pledges, charges and covenants

meanings assigned in the Ordinance.
This Certificate, subject to certain limitations contained in the Ordinance, may
be transferred on the Security Register only upon its presentation and surrender at
the principal office of the Paying Agent/Registrar, with the Assignment hereon duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Paying Agent/Registrar duly executed by, the registered owner hereof, or his
duly authorized agent. When a transfer on the Security Register occurs, one or more
fully registered Certificates of authorized denominations and of the same aggregate
-10-
principal amount will be issued by the Paying Agent/Registrar to the designated
transferee or transferees.
The City and the Paying Agent/Registrar, and any agent of either, may treat
the registered owner hereof whose name appears on the Security Register (i) on· the
Record Date as the owner entitled to payment of interest hereon, (ii) on the date of
surrender of this Certificate as the owner entitled to payment of principal hereof at
its Stated Maturity or its redemption, in whole or in part, and (iii) on any other date
as the owner for all other purposes, and neither the City nor the Paying
Agent/Registrar, or any agent of either, shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
In the event of nonpayment of interest on a scheduled payment date and for thirty
(30) days thereafter, a new record date for such interest payment (a "Special Record
Date") will be established by the Paying Agent/Registrar, if and when funds for the
payment of such interest have been received from the City. Notice of the Special
Record Date and of the scheduled payment date of the past due interest (which shall
be 15 days after the Special Record Date) shall be sent at least five (5) business days
prior to the Special Record Date by United States Mail, first class postage prepaid, to
the address of each Holder appearing on the Security Register at the close of business
on the last business day next preceding the date of mailing of such notice.
It is hereby certified, recited, represented and covenanted that the City is a
body corporate and political subdivision duly organized and legally existing under and
by virtue of the Constitution and laws of the State of Texas; that the issuance of the
Certificates is duly authorized by law; that all acts, conditions and things required to
exist and be done precedent to and in the issuance of the Certificates to render the
same lawful and valid obligations of the City have been properly done, have happened
and have been performed in regular and due time, form and manner as required by
the Constitution and laws of the State of Texas, and the Ordinance; that the
Certificates do not exceed any constitutional or statutory limitation; and that due
provision has been made for the payment of the principal of and interest on the
Certificates by the levy of a tax and a pledge of the Net Revenues of the System as
aforestated. In case any provision in this Certificate or any application thereof shall
be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the
remaining provisions and applications shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby. The terms and provisions of this Certificate and the Ordinance shall be
construed in accordance with and shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas.

federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 103 of the Code, the City shall
comply with each of the specific covenants in this Section.
-26-
(c) No Private Use or Private Payments. Proceeds of the Certificates andithe
facilities financed with the proceeds of the Certificates will not be used in a manner

regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall, at all times prior to the last Stated
Maturity of Certificates, 1

construction, or improvement of which is to be financed directly or indirectly
with Gross Proceeds of the Certificates and not use or permit the use of such
Gross Proceeds or any property acquired, constructed, or improved with such
Gross Proceeds in any activity carried on by any person or entity other than
a state or local government, unless such use is solely as a member of the
general public, or
(2) not directly or indirectly impose or accept any charge or other
payment for use of Gross Proceeds of the Certificates or any property the
acquisition, construction, or improvement of which is to be financed directly or
indirectly with such Gross Proceeds, other than taxes of general application

Proceeds pending application for their intended purposes.
(d) No Private Loan. Except to the extent permitted by section 141 of the
Code and the regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not use Gross
Proceeds of the Certificates to make or finance loans to any person or entity other
than a state or local government. For purposes of the foregoing covenant, such Gross
Proceeds are considered to be "loaned" to a person or entity if (1) property acquired,
constructed, or improved with such Gross Proceeds is sold or leased to such person
or entity in a transaction which creates a debt for federal income tax purposes, (2)
capacity in or service from such property is committed to such person or entity under
a take-or-pay, output, or similar contract or arrangement, or (3) indirect benefits, or
burdens and benefits of ownership, of such Gross Proceeds or any property acquired,
constructed, or improved with such Gross Proceeds are otherwise transferred in a
transaction which is the economic equivalent of a loan.
(e) Not to Invest at Higher Yield. Except to the extent permitted by section
148 of the Code and the regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not, at any
time prior to the final Stated Maturity of the Certificates, directly or indirectly invest
Gross Proceeds of the Certificates in any Investment (or use such Gross Proceeds to

disposed of, exceeds the Yield of the Certificates.
(t) Not Federally Guaranteed. Except to the extent permitted by section
149(b} of the Code and the regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not take
or omit to take any action which would cause the Certificates to be federally
-27•
guaranteed within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code and the regulations and
rulings thereunder.

Treasury the information required by section 149(e) of the Code with respect to the

account separately and apart from all other funds (and receipts, expenditures,
and investments thereof) and shall maintain all records of such accounting with
the official transcript of the proceedings relating to the issuance of · the
Certificates until six years after the final Computation Date. The City may,
however, to the extent permitted by law, commingle Gross Proceeds of the
Certificates with other money of the City, provided that the City separately
accounts for each receipt and expenditure of such Gross Proceeds and the
obligations acquired therewith.
(2) Not less frequently than each Computation Date, the City shall
either (i) cause to be calculated by a nationally recognized accounting or
financial advisory firm or (ii) calculate and cause its calculations to be

excludability of the interest thereon from the gross income of the owners
thereof for federal income tax purposes, the City shall pay to the United States

Dear Ranette and Veronica:
Enclosed please find the form of ordinance proposed for
use in authorizing the captioned certificates. The ordinance
is being furnished to Veronica for her review, although it is
virtually identical to the ordinance which authorized the
Series 1991 Certificates. The primary change from the Series
1991 ordinance is the elimination of the delivery mechanism
used in Lot A and Lot B. The enclosed ordinance contemplates
that all of the Certificates would be delivered simultaneously
on a single date.
The enclosed ordinance is forwarded to Ranette for
inclusion in the counci 1 agenda packets. I understand the
proposed ordinance is to be adopted on first reading on Apri 1
23, 1992. As a consequence, if Veronica has any comments, · it
would be helpful to receive them as soon as possible. Ranette,
you should keep in mind that I may be forwarding revised pages
to incorporate Veronica's comments.
Please call if you have any questions.

scheduled payment date of the past due interest (which shall be
15 days after the Special Record Date) shall be sent at least
five (5) business days prior to the Special Record Date by

that the Certificates do not exceed any constitutional or
statutory limitation; and that due provision has been made for

purposes, the City shall pay to the United States the
amount described in paragraph (2) above and the amount
described in paragraph ( 4) below, at the times, in the

WE HA VE EXAMINED into the legality and validity of the issuance of the
"City of Lubbock, Texas, Combination Tax and Sewer System Subordinate Lien
Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Series 1992" (the "Certificates"), dated May 15, 1992
(the "Certificate Date"), in the principal amount of $34,520,000, by the City of Lubbock,
Texas (the "City''), which Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only, in
denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof (within a maturity), have
stated maturities of February 15, 1995 through February 15, 2014, unless redeemed
prior to maturity, in accordance with the terms stated on the face of the Certificates,
and bear interest on the unpaid principal amount from the date of delivery to the initial
purchasers thereof at the per annum rates stated in the ordinance authorizing the
issuance of the Certificates (the "Ordinance"), such interest being payable on February
15 and August 15 in each year, commencing February 15, 1993, to the registered
owners shown on the registration books of the Paying Agent/Registrar on the Record
Date (stated on the face of the Certificates).
WE HA VE SERVED AS BOND COUNSEL for the City solely to pass upon the
legality and validity of the issuance of the Certificates under the Constitution and laws
of the State of Texas, and with respect to the exclusion of the interest on the
Certificates from gross income for federal income tax purposes and none other. We
have not been requested to investigate or verify, and have not independently
investigated or verified, any records, data or other material relating to the financial
condition or capabilities of the City. Our examinations into the legality and validity of
the Certificates included a review of the applicable and pertinent provisions of the
Constitution and laws of the State of Texas, a transcript of certified proceedings of the
City relating to the authorization and issuance of the Certificates, including the
Ordinance, customary certifications and opinions of officials of the City and other
pertinent showings, and an examination of the Certificate executed and delivered
initially by the City, which we found to be in due form and properly executed.
BASED ON OUR EXAMINATIONS, IT IS OUR OPINION that the Certificates
have been duly authorized by the City in compliance with the Constitution and laws of
the State of Texas now in force, and the Certificates issued in compliance with the
provisions of the Ordinance are valid, legally binding and enforceable obligations of the
City payable from the sources and secured in the manner provided in the Ordinance,
except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be affected by bankruptcy,

RE: City of Lubbock, Texas, Combination Tax and Sewer System Subordinate Lien
Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Series 1992
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights
or the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with the general principles of equity.
IT IS FURTHER OUR OPINION THAT, assuming continuing compliance after
the date hereof by the City with the provisions of the Ordinance and in reliance upon
representations and certifications of the City made in a certificate of even date herewith
pertaining to the use, expenditure, and investment of the proceeds of the Certificates,
(A) interest on the Certificates for federal income tax purposes (1) will be excludable
from gross income, as defined in section 61 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended to the date hereof (the "Code"), of the owners thereof pursuant to section 103
of the Code, existing regulations, published rulings, and court decisions thereunder• and
(2) will not be included in computing the alternative minimum taxable income of
individuals or, except as hereinafter described, corporations and (B) the Certificates are
not "private activity bonds" as that term is defined in section 141 of the Code. Interest
on all tax-exempt obligations, such as the Certificates, owned by a corporation will be
included in such corporation's adjusted net book income, for the tax year 1989, or
adjusted current earnings, for tax years beginning after 1989, for purposes of
calculating the alternative minimum taxable income of such corporations, other than
an S corporation, a qualified mutual fund, a real estate mortgage investment conduit
(REMIC), or a real estate investment trust (REIT). A corporation's alternative
minimum taxable income is the basis on which the alternative minimum tax and the
environmental tax imposed by Sections 55 and 59A of the Code, respectively, will be
computed for tax years beginning after December 31, 1986.
WE EXPRESS NO OPINION with respect to any other federal, state, or local
tax consequences under present law or any proposed legislation resulting from the
receipt or accrual of interest on, or the acquisition or disposition of, the Certificates.
Ownership of tax-exempt obligations such as the Certificates may result in collateral
federal tax consequences to, among others, financial institutions, life insurance
companies, property and casualty insurance companies, certain foreign corporations
doing business in the United States, S corporations with subchapter C earnings and
profits, individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement Benefits,. and
taxpayers who may be deemed to have incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase
or carry, or who have paid or incurred certain expenses allocable to, tax-exempt
obligations. ~t,.,/~

CERTIFICATE AS TO TAX EXEMPTION
THE STATE OF TEXAS §
§
COUNTY OF LUBBOCK §
§
CITY OF LUBBOCK §
I, the undersigned, Assistant City Manager for Financial Services of the City of
Lubbock, Texas, (the '1ssuer"), who with other officers are charged with the
responsibility of issuing and delivering the "CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS,
COMBINATION TAX AND SEWER SYSTEM SUBORDINATE LIEN REVENUE
CERTIFICATES OF OBLIGATION, SERIES 1992", dated May 15, 1992, in the
principal amount of $34,520,000 (the "Certificates"), DO HEREBY CERTIFY that, to
the best of my knowledge and belief, the following facts and estimates are reasonable
expectations relating to the issuance and sale of the Certificates and the use and
expenditures of proceeds thereof. Unless otherwise noted, capitalized terms herein
shall have the same meanings ascribed thereto in the ordinance authorizing the
issuance of the Certificates.
1. Pur_pose of the Certificates.
The Certificates are being issued to finance the costs of constructing
improvements to the City's Wastewater Treatment System (the "Project"), and to pay
contracts for professional services.
2. Source and Disbursement of Funds.
2.1 The Certificates were issued and delivered to the purchasers thereof on
the date hereof in exchange for the agreed purchase price of the Certificates of
$34,520,000.
2.2 Costs of issuance relating to the Certificates are estimated to be
$57,544.00 and will be paid out of proceeds of the Certificates. Costs of the Project are
estimated to be $34,520,000.
The Issuer acknowledges and understands that based on the certifications and
representations appearing in paragraph (8) below, the amounts received frottt the
purchaser of the Certificates, pending the expenditure thereof for authorized projects
and purposes, may be invested without restriction as to Yield for a temporary period
not to exceed three (3) years from the date of this Certificate, and in the event any of
such proceeds of the Certificates shall remain unexpended on the third anniversary date
of this Certificate, any investment of such proceeds after such anniversary date shall
be restricted to obligations or accounts that have a Yield not in excess of the Yield of
the Certificates.
3. Temporai:y Period.
8.1 Within six (6) months from the date of this Certificate, the Issuer will
have incurred substantial binding obligations or commitments in the amount of at least
$100,000 for the Project to be financed by the Certificates by entering into contracts for
,...
-
either construction, architectural services, engineering services, land acquisitions, site
development, construction materials, or the purchase of equipment.
8.2 After entering into said contracts, work on the Projects will proceed with
due diligence to completion, which is expected to occur on or about July, 1994.
3.3 All of the spendable proceeds of the Certificates will be expended for
Project costs by the end of the three-year period from the date hereof.
4. Certificate Fund and the System Fund.
4.1 The Certificates are payable from an ad valorem tax levied upon all
taxable property in the Issuer, and are additionally payable from a pledge of the Net
Revenues of the City's Sewer System, and all taxes levied and collected for and on
account of the Certificates, together with Net Revenues pledged and appropriated to
pay the Certificates, are to be to deposited into a special Fund or Account (the
"Certificate Fund") created and established for the payment of the Certificates, as
provided in Section 10 of the Ordinance authorizing the issuance of the Certificates.
The Certificate Fund was created primarily to acheive a proper matching of revenues
and debt service for the Certificates within each bond year and moneys deposited
therein will be used solely to pay the principal of and interest on the Certificates as the
same becomes due and payable and the Issuer reasonably expects that there will be no
other funds that will be so used or pledged or otherwise restricted so as to be available
with reasonable certainty, to be used.
4.2 To the extent taxes collected for the payment of the Certificates equals the
annual debt service paid, amounts deposited in the Certificate Fund will be spent within
a thirteen month period beginning on the date of the deposit. Any amounts deposited
in such Certificate Fund in excess of the annual debt service to be paid on the
Certificates plus an amount not to exceed the greater of (i) one year's earnings on the
Certificate Fund or (ii) one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual debt service on the Certificates
will, to the extent such money are invested, be restricted to investments which have a
Yield not in excess of the Yield of the Certificates. Any amount received from the
investment of money held in the Certificate Fund will be spent within a one-year period
beginning on the date of receipt.
4.8 Any amounts deposited to the System Fund shall be pledged in the priority
set forth in Section 13 of the Ordinance.
5. Miscellaneous.
5.1 The Issuer has not been notified of any listing or proposed listing of the
Issuer by the Internal Revenue Service as an issuer that may not certify its Certificates.
5.2 Any amount of income derived from the investment of money received
upon the sale of the Certificates or from the investment of such investment income will
either (i) be expended on the Project, or (ii) if and when found not to be required for
such expenditure, will be deposited in the Certificate Fund and expended to pay
11033 -2-
,.,.
I,..
principal and interest on the Certificates, within three (8) years from the date hereof
or within one (1) year of receipt, whichever is sooner.
5.3 The Issuer has, in addition to the moneys received from the sale of the
Certificates, moneys that are invested in various funds which are pledged for various
purposes. These other funds are not available to accomplish the purposes described in
1 above, except as described in Section 4 hereof.
5.4 The principal amount of the Certificates, together with the investment
income to be realized from the investment thereof based on current market rates
(estimated to be $1,250,000.00), is not expected to be in excess of the most recent
estimates of the amounts necessary to acquire, construct or equip, as the case may be,
the Projects and paying costs of issuance of the Certificates.
5.5 No person or group of persons will have access to or use of or derive any
special benefit (other than as members of the general public) from the facilities and
improvements to be constructed with the proceeds of the Certificates, pursuant to any
lease, management or payment contract or any other arrangement.
5.6 In accordance with Section 28 of the Ordinance, unless the Certificates
meet an exception described in section 148(0 of the Code, the City will pay Rebatable
Arbitrage to the United States at the times and in the amounts as provided in section
148 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. It is
anticipated that the Certificates may meet the exception contained in section
148(O(4)(C) of the Code, relating to obligations the proceeds of which are used for
construction expenditures and are spent within a twenty-four (24) month period.
The Issuer elects to apply the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-6
to the Bonds. The Issuer irrevocably elects under section 148(O(4)(C)(vii) of the Code
and Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-6(1) to pay the 1 1/2 percent penalty in lieu of
arbitrage rebate with respect to the Bonds. The Issuer of the Bonds is the
City of Lubbock, P.O. Box 2000, Lubbock, Texas, 79457, taxpayer identification
number 75-6000590. The issue name, issue date, and face amount of the Bonds is as
indicated herein, and a CUSIP number has not been assigned to the Bonds. The Issuer
makes the special election under Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-6(e)(2) with respect
to the Bonds. The Issuer reasonably expects that at least 75% of the available
construction proceeds of the Bonds will be used for construction expenditures within
the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-6{0 with respect to the Project,
which will be owned by the Issuer, a governmental unit. These reasonable expectations
are supported by the statements and financial projections set forth in the Issuer's
request to the Texas Water Development Board with respect to the Project.
5. 7. No other obligations of the Issuer payable from the same source of funds
as the Certificates and with a common plan of financing have been or will be issued
within 31 days of the date hereof.

5.8 The yield on the Certificates, calculated on the basis that the present
worth of all payments of principal and interest to be paid on the Certificates produces
an amount equal to the "Issue Price" {as represented by the initial purchasers) of the
Certificates, is 5,497 %.
