Section 2. Bond Book -Entry -Form.
0149-0823
2.1. The Bonds shall be initially issued in book -entry -form, with no Bonds being
made available to the Bondowners. The Director of Administrative Services (the "Director") shall

York ("DTC") for the Bonds, in form and substance satisfactory to DTC. So long as the Bonds
are in book -entry form:
2.1.1. Ownership of the Bonds shall be recorded through entries on the
books of banks and broker-dealer participants and correspondents that are related to
entries on the DTC system. The Bonds shall be initially issued in the form of a global
bond for each maturity. Each global bond shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co.
as nominee of DTC as the owner of the Bond, and such global bonds shall be lodged with
DTC until early redemption or maturity of the Bond issue.
2.1.2. The Registrar shall remit payment for the maturing principal and
interest on the Bonds to DTC as owner of the Bonds for distribution by the nominee to
the beneficial owners by recorded entry on the books of DTC participants and
correspondents. While the Bonds are in book -entry -form, the Bonds will be available in
denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof.
2.1.3. "Term Bonds" means the Bond payable at or before their specified
maturity date or dates from mandatory sinking fund payments established for that purpose
and calculated to retire such bonds on or before their specified maturity date or dates.
2.2. In the event DTC determines not to continue to act as securities depository
for the Bonds, or the County determines that DTC shall no longer so act; then the County will
discontinue maintaining the Bonds in the book -entry -form with DTC.
2.3. Notwithstanding the provisions regarding exchange and transfer of Bonds set
forth in this Resolution, while the Bonds are in book -entry -form they may not be transferred or
exchanged on the registration books maintained by the Paying Agent except:
below;
2.3.1. to any successor depository designated by the County as provided
2.3.2. to any successor nominee designated by a depository, or
2.3.3. if the County elects to discontinue maintaining the Bonds in book -
entry -form, the County shall cause the Paying Agent to authenticate and deliver
replacement Bonds in fully registered form in authorized denominations in the names of
the beneficial owners or their nominees; thereafter the provisions set forth herein,
regarding registration, transfer and exchange of Bonds shall apply.

U149�-0824
2.4. Upon the resignation of any institution acting as depository hereunder, or if
the County determines that continuation of any institution in the role of depository is not in the
best interests of the beneficial owners, the County shall attempt to identify another institution
qualified to act as depository hereunder or shall discontinue maintaining the Bonds in book -entry -
form by resolution or ordinance. If the County is unable to identify such successor depository
prior to the effective date of the resignation, the County shall discontinue maintaining the Bonds
in book -entry -form as provided above.
2.5. With respect to Bonds registered in the registration books maintained by the
Paying Agent in the name of the nominee of DTC, the County and the Paying Agent shall have no
responsibility or obligation to any participant or correspondent of DTC or to any beneficial owner
on behalf of which such participants or correspondents act as agent for the beneficial owner with
respect to:
2.5.1. the accuracy of the records of DTC, the Nominee or any participant
or correspondent with respect to any beneficial owner's interest in the Bonds;
2.5.2. the delivery to any participant or correspondent or any other person
of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of prepayment;
2.5.3. the selection by DTC of the beneficial interest in Bonds to be
redeemed prior to maturity; or
2.5.4. the payment to any participant, correspondent, or any other person
other than the registered owner of the Bonds as shown in the registration books
maintained by the Paying Agent, of any amount with respect to principal or interest on the
Bonds.
2.6. So long as the Bonds are in book -entry -form, the Paying Agent will give any
notice of redemption or any other notices required to be given to registered owners of Bonds only
to DTC or its nominee registered as the registered owner thereof Any failure of DTC to advise
any of its participants, or of any participant to notify the beneficial owner, of any such notice and
its content or effect will not affect the validity of the redemption of the Bonds called for
redemption or of any other action premised on such notice. Neither the County nor the Paying
Agent is responsible or liable for the failure of DTC or any participant to make any payment or
give any notice to a beneficial owner in respect of the Bonds or any error or delay relating thereto.
2.7. The County shall pay or cause to be paid all principal and interest on the
Bonds only to or upon the order of the owner, as shown in the registration books maintained by
the Paying Agent, or their respective attorneys duly authorized in writing, and all such payments
shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the County's obligation with respect to
payment thereof to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
2.8. Upon delivery by DTC to the County and to the owner of written notice to
the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of the nominee, then the

such notice, the County shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to the Paying Agent. DTC shall

beneficial owners in order to conform this Section to the standard practices of DTC for bonds
issued in book -entry -form.
Section 3. Mandatory Redemption.
The Bonds maturing in two or more consecutive maturities may be designated as
Term Bonds pursuant to the bid submitted by the successful bidder. Such Term Bonds, if any,
shall be subject to mandatory redemption pursuant to the serial bond schedule established in the

applied to reduce the amount of bonds subject to mandatory redemption, if any, in order of
scheduled mandatory redemption.
Section 4. Optional Redemption.
4.1. The County reserves the right to redeem all or any portion of the Bonds
maturing after June 1, 2006, by lot on June 1, 2006, and on any date thereafter, at par plus

DTC of any early redemption not less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, and

submitted to DTC in connection with the issuance of Bonds.
Section 6. Notice of Redemption (No DTC).

owner a new Bond or Bonds of the same maturity in the amount of the unpaid principal. All
Bonds which have been redeemed shall be canceled and destroyed by the Registrar and shall not
be reissued.

Page 7 -Resolution ):\RDR\DESCHUTE.CO\GO.96\RES-AUTH.DOC
1/3/96_27072-18
recognized Bond Counsel that such compliance is not required for the interest paid on the Bonds
to be so excluded. The County makes the following specific covenants with respect to the Code:
9.1.1. The County shall not take any action or omit any action, if it would
cause the Bonds to become "arbitrage bonds" under Section 148 of the Code and shall pay
any rebates to the United States which are required by Section 148(f) of the Code.

obligations pursuant to Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.
Section 11. Arbitrage and Arbitrage Rebate.
11.1. The County shall not invest or use the gross proceeds of the Bonds in a
manner that would cause any of the Bonds to become arbitrage bonds under Section 148 of the

the Bonds to become "arbitrage bonds" under Section 148 of the Tax Code. For purposes of this
section, "gross proceeds" includes, but is not limited to, Bond proceeds, earnings thereon and
monies in any funds or accounts of the County that are pledged to the Bonds, except as exempted

arbitrage rebate or penalties due with respect to the Bonds at the times and in the amounts
required by Section 148(f) of the Code.

12.1. The County may defease the Bonds by setting aside, with a duly appointed
escrow agent, in a special escrow account irrevocably pledged to the payment of the Bonds to be
defeased, cash or direct obligations of the United States in an amount which, in the opinion of a
certified public accountant satisfactory to the escrow agent, without reinvestment, is at least equal
to the principal amount of the Bonds to be defeased, plus interest which will accrue thereon until
maturity or any earlier date for which the issuer has given irrevocable instructions for redemption.

arises from a change in legal requirements, change in law, or change in the identity, nature
or status of the County with respect to the Bonds, or the type of business conducted;

SECURITY: The Bonds are general obligations of the County. The County has

and conditioned on the County complying with certain covenants relating to the tax-exempt status
of the Bonds, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes (except for certain taxes on corporations). The Bonds are not "private activity bonds"
under Section 141 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, the interest on the Bonds is exempt from personal
income taxation by the State of Oregon under present state law.
Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding other federal or state tax
consequences arising with respect to the Bonds.
CERTIFICATE OF REOFFERING PRICE: The successful bidder for each series

Counsel to determine the "issue price" of the series, and verifying the accuracy of the reoffering
prices and yields which were certified to the County's financial advisor, not later than seven

certificate satisfactory to Bond Counsel, may result in cancellation of the sale and forfeiture of the
successful bidder's good faith deposit.

BOND INSURANCE: Application will be made for qualification of the Bonds for
debt service insurance. If the Bonds qualify for municipal bond insurance, any purchase of such
policy shall be at the sole option and expense of the bidder. Failure of the Bonds to be so insured
or of any such policy to be issued shall not in any manner relieve the successful bidder of his
contractual obligations arising from the acceptance of his proposal for the purchase of the Bonds.
GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT - CHECK OR FINANCIAL SURETY BOND: Each
bid must be accompanied by a good faith deposit in the amount of Two Hundred Eighty -Eight
Thousand Dollars ($288,000.00). The good faith deposit must be in the form of a certified or
cashier's check drawn on a bank doing business in the State of Oregon or a financial surety bond
and payable to the order of the County. The good faith deposit will be held by the County as
security against any loss resulting from the failure of the bidder to comply with the terms of its
bid. The good faith deposit will be forfeited to the County as liquidated damages in case the
bidder to whom the Bonds are awarded withdraws its bid or fails to complete its purchase of the
Bonds in accordance with the terms thereof, including any failure to purchase the Bonds resulting
from the inability of the bidder to secure delivery of an insurance policy submitted as part of its
bid for the purchase of the Bonds.
If a check is used as good faith deposit, the check must accompany the bid. If a
financial surety bond is used as the good faith deposit, such financial surety bond must be
submitted to the County prior to the opening of the bids. The issuer of the financial surety bond
must be rated in the highest rating category by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., Standard &
Poor's, or by Fitch Investors Service, Inc., and must identify the bidder whose good faith deposit
is guaranteed by such financial surety bond. If the Bonds are awarded to a bidder utilizing a
financial surety bond as the good faith deposit, then not later than 2:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on
Friday, March 1, 1996 the successful bidder must send by electronic wire transfer to such account
as the County shall specify immediately available funds in an amount equal to the good faith
deposit. If such wire transfer is not received from the successful bidder by 2:00 p.m. on Friday,
March 1, 1996 the financial surety bond may be immediately drawn upon by the County to satisfy
the good faith deposit requirement.
The County reserves the right to cash the good faith deposit check of the
successful bidder, or to retain any good faith deposit delivered by electronic wire transfer,
immediately upon receipt thereof by the County. The County shall be entitled to retain for the
sole and exclusive use and benefit of the County all investment earnings derived from the good
faith deposit prior to the delivery of the Bonds, and in no event shall the successful bidder be
entitled to any such investment earnings (whether by means of a credit or otherwise).
Upon delivery of the Bonds, the successful bidder will receive a credit against the
purchase price of the Bonds in an amount equal to the good faith deposit (i.e., $288,000.00).
Checks representing the good faith deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be promptly returned
by the County.

BEST BID: The Bonds will be awarded to the responsible bidder whose proposal
will result in the lowest true interest cost to the County. True interest cost will be determined by
doubling the semiannual interest rate necessary to discount the debt service to March 1, 1996, and
the price bid for the Bonds. Each bidder is requested to supply the total interest cost and the true
interest cost that the County will pay upon the issue if the bid is accepted. The purchaser must
pay accrued interest, computed on a 360 -day basis, from the date of the Bonds to the date of
delivery. The cost of printing the Bonds will be paid by the County.

successful bidder for the Bonds with sufficient copies of the official statement for the Bonds to
comply with federal regulations, in a form "deemed final" by the County at the expense of the
County, and such additional copies as the successful bidder may request in its bid form at the
expense of the bidder, not later than the seventh business day following the date on which bids are
due. Bidders should expect that the official statements will not be available prior to the seventh
business day following the date on which bids are due, and should not issue confirmations which
request payment prior to that date. This provision will constitute a contract with the successful
bidder upon acceptance of its bid by the County, in compliance with Section 240.15c2 -12(b)(3) in
Chapter II of Title 17 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
The County further covenants and agrees to enter into a written agreement or

undertaking shall be a part of the Resolution and in the form as summarized in the Preliminary
Official Statement, with such changes as may be agreed to in writing by the Underwriter. The

pursuant to the Rule.
POTENTIAL BID: The financial advisor may submit a bid or participate in a
