NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Glendale, Arizona,
as follows:
Section 1.
Purpose. That for the purpose of providing funds for the 1999 Library
Facilities, 1999 Cultural Facilities, 1999 Open Spaces, 1999 Governmental Facilities, 2007 Public
Safety Facilities, 2007 Streets and Parking Facilities and 2023 Street and Intersection Facilities,
and to pay all necessary legal, financial, architectural, engineering and contingent costs in
connection therewith, the City hereby authorizes the issuance of its General Obligation Bonds in
one or more series which may include bonds, the interest on which is intended to be excludible
from gross income for federal income tax purpose in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed
$50,000,000. Any net premium received from the sale of the Bonds shall be subject to Arizona
Revised Statutes, Section 35-457.D. The City Manager, any Assistant City Manager or Budget
and Finance Director, in each case, whether interim or actual (each, an “Authorized Officer”) shall
determine the dollar amounts and respective ballot propositions under which each series of Bonds
shall be issued.
Section 2.
Authorization of Bonds. The Bonds shall be issued as fully registered bonds
registered as to both principal and interest, in the denominations determined by the Assistant City
Manager or Budget and Finance Director or any integral multiple thereof, and shall be dated the
date of delivery of the Bonds.
Interest on the Bonds shall be payable on January 1 and July 1 of each year (the “Interest
Payment Dates”), at the rates to be set forth in the Bond Purchase Agreement or certificate and
receipt of the Bank Lender (not to exceed an aggregate yield of 5.00%) until the principal amount
has been paid or provided for. The Bonds shall bear interest from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid or provided for, from the date
of delivery, or such other date as approved by an Authorized Officer. Interest on the Bonds will
be computed on the basis set forth in the Bond Purchase Agreement or certificate and receipt of
the Bank Lender. The final amounts and respective maturity dates of the Bonds shall be set forth
in the Bond Purchase Agreement or certificate and receipt of the Bank Lender, but none of the
Bonds shall mature later than July 1, 2049.
Section 3.
Sale of Bonds. Each Authorized Officer is authorized to determine whether
any of the Bonds are to be sold to (i) the Bank Lender pursuant to a bank lending proposal or (ii) the
Underwriters pursuant to negotiated sale as described in the Official Statement (such entity
purchasing the Bonds, the “Purchasers”). If it is the former, such sale will be evidenced by a
certificate and receipt of the Bank Lender for each series of Bonds. If it is the latter, such sale will
be evidenced by the execution and delivery of a Bond Purchase Agreement for each series of
Bonds, if applicable. If the Bonds are to be sold by negotiated sale to the Underwriters, each
Authorized Officer is hereby authorized to execute and deliver a Bond Purchase Agreement for
each series of Bonds, if applicable, with such insertions, omissions and changes as are necessary
and consistent with this Ordinance, the execution of a Bond Purchase Agreement for each series
of Bonds, if applicable, being conclusive evidence of such approval. An Authorized Officer may
make provision for insurance and/or liquidity support of the Bonds, if such Authorized Officer
determines that such insurance or credit support would provide a net borrowing cost savings or
enhance the marketability of the Bonds. Such determinations shall be included in the Bond
Purchase Agreements.
ACTIVE 700058839v1
ACTIVE 700058839v2
-6-
If bond insurance and/or liquidity support is obtained with respect to any of the Bonds, an
Authorized Officer is authorized to execute and deliver, on behalf of the City, appropriate
agreements with the bond insurer and/or liquidity provider and the Bond Registrar with provisions
concerning, without limitation, any of the following: (i) the terms of the bond insurance and/or
liquidity support and the premium to be paid for it, (ii) procedures for payments under the bond
insurance and/or liquidity support and reimbursement of amounts advanced including subrogation
to the rights of bondholders paid, (iii) voting rights, (iv) remedies and (v) notices and providing of
information with respect to the Bonds.
Section 4.
Custody of Registered Bonds. (a) If one or more series of Bonds is sold to
the Underwriters by negotiated sale, such Bonds shall only be issued in book entry form, except as
provided in Section 9 hereof, and (i) one certificate for each Bond maturity in typewritten form
shall be registered in the name of the Depository (as defined herein) or its nominee, as registered
owner, and immobilized in the custody of the Depository; (ii) the beneficial owners of the Bonds
(the “Beneficial Owners”) shall have no right to receive the Bonds in the form of physical
securities; (iii) ownership of beneficial interests in the principal amounts of $5,000 or integral
multiples thereof shall be shown by book entry on the system maintained and operated by the
Depository and its participants, and transfers of the ownership of beneficial interest shall be made
only by book entry by the Depository and its participants; and (iv) the Bonds as such shall not be
transferable or exchangeable, except in transfer to another Depository or to another nominee of a
Depository.
As provided in Section 9 hereof, the City and the Bond Registrar shall treat the Depository
or its nominee in whose name the Bonds are registered in the Bond Registrar as the owner of the
Bonds for all purposes. Accordingly, principal and interest payments will be paid to the
Depository as the registered owner of the Bonds. All notices required by this Ordinance to be
given to the registered owners of Bonds shall be given to the Depository as the registered owner
of the Bonds. The transfer of principal and interest and of notices to the Beneficial Owners will
be the responsibility of the Depository and its Participants or other nominees of the Beneficial
Owners. The City will not be responsible or liable for such transfers or the failure thereof or for
maintaining, supervising or reviewing records of the Depository.
For the purposes of this Ordinance, “Depository” means any securities depository that is a
clearing agency under federal law operating and maintaining, with its participants or otherwise, a
book entry system to record ownership of beneficial interests in Bonds, and to effect transfers of
such beneficial interests in the Bonds, in book entry form, and includes and means initially The
Depository Trust Company (a limited purpose trust company), New York, New York.
(b)
Any series of Bonds sold to a Bank Lender pursuant to a bank lending proposal
shall be evidenced by one certificate for each Bond maturity in typewritten form and registered in
the name of and delivered to the applicable Bank Lender or its nominee.
Section 5.
Execution. The Bonds shall be signed by the Mayor and attested by the City
Clerk (references in this Ordinance to such officers shall include persons acting in the capacity of
such officers) in their official capacities. The signature of any or all of such officers may be
facsimiles. No Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or shall be entitled to any security
or benefit under this Ordinance unless and until the certificate of authentication printed on the
ACTIVE 700058839v1
ACTIVE 700058839v2
-7-
Bond is signed by the Bond Registrar as authenticating agent. Authentication by the Bond
Registrar shall be conclusive evidence that the Bond so authenticated has been duly issued, signed
and delivered under this Ordinance and is entitled to the security and benefit of this Ordinance.
Section 6.
Registrar and Paying Agent. An Authorized Officer is authorized to appoint
a qualified financial institution to serve as the authenticating agent, bond registrar, transfer agent
and paying agent (collectively, the “Bond Registrar”) for the Bonds. The Mayor or an Authorized
Officer shall sign and deliver, and the City Clerk shall attest, on behalf of the City, the Bond
Registrar Agreement, in substantially the form on file with the City Clerk with such additions,
deletions and modifications not inconsistent with this Ordinance as the officer executing such
agreement shall approve. Each Authorized Officer is authorized and directed on behalf of the City
to provide for payment of the services rendered and for reimbursement of expenses incurred by the
Bond Registrar from the proceeds of the Bonds to the extent available or from other funds lawfully
available therefor.
Section 7.
Payment of Bonds. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the

principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar and (b) interest on a Bond shall be paid on
each Interest Payment Date by check or draft mailed to the person in whose name the Bond was
registered in the Bond Register, at the close of business on the 15th day of the calendar month next
preceding that Interest Payment Date (the “regular record date”) at that person’s address appearing
on the Bond Register (as defined in Section 9 below), or at such other address as is furnished to
the Bond Registrar, in writing, by the registered owner before the regular record date. Any interest
which is not timely paid or duly provided for shall cease to be payable to the person who is shown
as the registered owner thereof (or of one or more predecessor bonds) as of the regular record date,
and shall be payable to the registered owner hereof (or of one or more predecessor bonds) at the
close of business on a special record date for the payment of that overdue interest. The special
record date shall be fixed by the Bond Registrar whenever monies become available for payment
of the overdue interest, and notice of the special record date shall be given to registered owners not
less than ten days prior thereto.
Section 8.
Prior Redemption.
(a)
Each series of Bonds shall be subject to redemption prior to maturity
as set forth in the certificate and receipt of the Bank Lender or Bond Purchase Agreement and the
form of Bond.
(b)
(1)
Notice of redemption of any Bond shall be mailed by first
class mail, postage prepaid, not more than sixty (60) nor less than thirty (30) days prior to the date
set for redemption to the registered owner of the Bond or Bonds being redeemed at the address
shown on the registration books for the Bonds maintained by the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent.
Failure to give properly such notice of redemption shall not affect the redemption of any Bond for
which notice was properly given. A notice of optional redemption may contain a statement that
the redemption is conditional upon receipt by the Bond Registrar as paying agent of funds on or
before the date fixed for redemption sufficient to pay the redemption price of the Bonds so called
ACTIVE 700058839v1
ACTIVE 700058839v2
-8-
for redemption, and that if such funds are not available, such redemption shall be cancelled by
written notice to owners of the Bonds called for redemption in the same manner as the original
redemption notice was mailed.
(2)
On the date designated for redemption by notice given as
herein provided, the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed shall become and be due and
payable at the redemption price for such Bonds or such portions thereof on such date, and, if
moneys for payment of the redemption price are held in separate accounts by the Bond Registrar
and Paying Agent, interest on such Bonds or such portions thereof shall cease to accrue, such
Bonds or such portions thereof shall cease to be entitled to any benefit or security hereunder, the
registered owners of such Bonds or such portions thereof shall have no rights in respect thereof
except to receive payment of the redemption price thereof and accrued interest thereon and such
Bonds or such portions thereof shall be deemed paid and no longer outstanding.
(3)
Except as otherwise provided in a certificate and receipt of
the Bank Lender, the City may redeem, and the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent shall select, by
lot in such manner as the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent may determine, any amount which is
included in a Bond in the denomination in excess of, but divisible by, $5,000. In that event, the
registered owner shall submit the Bond for partial redemption and the Bond Registrar and Paying
Agent shall make such partial payment and shall cause to be issued a new Bond in a principal
amount which reflects the redemption so made, to be authenticated and delivered to the registered
owner thereof.
(c)
Any Bond or portion thereof in authorized denominations shall be
deemed paid and defeased and thereafter shall have no claim on ad valorem taxes levied on taxable
property in the City (i) if there is deposited with a bank or comparable financial institution, in trust,
moneys or obligations issued by or guaranteed by the United States government (“Defeasance
Obligations”) or both which, with the maturing principal of and interest on such Defeasance
Obligations, if any, will be sufficient, as evidenced by a certificate or report of an accountant, to
pay the principal of and interest and any premium on such Bond or portion thereof as the same
matures, comes due or becomes payable upon prior redemption and (ii) if such defeased Bond or
portion thereof is to be redeemed, notice of such redemption has been given in accordance with
provisions hereof or the City has submitted to the Bond Registrar and Paying Agent instructions
expressed to be irrevocable as to the date upon which such Bond or portion thereof is to be
redeemed and as to the giving of notice of such redemption. Bonds the payment of which has been
provided for in accordance with this Section shall no longer be deemed payable or outstanding
hereunder and thereafter such Bonds shall be entitled to payment only from the moneys or
Defeasance Obligations deposited to provide for the payment of such Bonds.
Section 9.
Registration and Exchange. So long as any of the Bonds remain
outstanding, the City will cause the Bond Registrar to maintain and keep at its principal corporate
trust office all books and records necessary for the registration, exchange and transfer of Bonds as
provided in this Section (the “Bond Register”). Subject to the provisions of Section 7 above, (a)
the person in whose name a Bond is registered on the Bond Register shall be regarded as the
absolute owner of that Bond for all purposes of this Ordinance, (b) payment of or on account of
the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any Bond shall be made only to or upon the order
of that person, and (c) neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the
ACTIVE 700058839v1
ACTIVE 700058839v2
-9-
contrary, but the registration may be changed as provided in this Section. All such payments shall
be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the City’s liability upon the Bond, including interest,
to the extent of the amount or amounts so paid.
Any Bond may be exchanged for Bonds of any authorized denomination upon presentation
and surrender at the principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar, together with a request
for exchange signed by the registered owner or by a person legally empowered to do so in a form
satisfactory to the Bond Registrar. A Bond may be transferred only on the Bond Register upon
presentation and surrender of the Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar,
together with an assignment executed by the registered owner or by a person legally empowered
to do so in a form satisfactory to the Bond Registrar. Upon exchange or transfer the Bond Registrar
shall complete, authenticate and deliver a new Bond or Bonds of any authorized denomination or
denominations requested by the registered owner equal in the aggregate to the unmatured principal
amount of the Bond surrendered and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same
date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bonds purchased by a Bank Lender shall be subject to such
transfer restrictions as may be determined by the Assistant City Manager or Budget and Finance
Director.
If manual signatures on behalf of the City are required, the Bond Registrar shall undertake
the exchange or transfer of Bonds only after the new Bonds are signed by the authorized officers
of the City. In all cases of exchanged or transferred Bonds, the City shall sign and the Bond
Registrar shall authenticate and deliver Bonds in accordance with the provisions of this Ordinance.
All fees and costs associated with the exchange or transfer, including any tax or other governmental
charges required to be paid with respect to the exchange or transfer, shall be paid by the registered
owner requesting the exchange or the transferor, as appropriate. The City or the Bond Registrar
may require that those fees and costs, if any, be paid before the procedure is begun for the exchange
or transfer. All Bonds issued upon any exchange or transfer shall be valid obligations of the City,
evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same security and benefit under this Ordinance as the
Bonds surrendered upon that exchange or transfer.
Any Bond surrendered to the Bond Registrar for payment, retirement, exchange,
replacement or transfer shall be canceled by the Bond Registrar. The City may at any time deliver
to the Bond Registrar for cancellation any previously authenticated and delivered Bonds that the
City may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and those Bonds shall be promptly canceled
by the Bond Registrar. The canceled Bonds shall be retained for a period of time and then returned
to the City or destroyed by the Bond Registrar as directed by an Authorized Officer.
The City and the Bond Registrar will not be required (a) to issue or transfer any Bonds
during a period beginning with the opening of business on the 15th day next preceding any date of
selection of Bonds to be redeemed and ending with the close of business on the day on which the
applicable notice of redemption is given or (b) to transfer any Bonds which have been selected or
called for redemption in whole or in part.
In case any Bond becomes mutilated or destroyed or lost, the City shall cause to be
executed and delivered a new Bond of like date and tenor in exchange and substitution for and
upon the cancellation of such mutilated Bond or in lieu of and in substitution for such Bond
destroyed or lost, upon the registered owner’s paying the reasonable expenses and charges of the
ACTIVE 700058839v1
ACTIVE 700058839v2
-10-
City in connection therewith and, in the case of the Bond destroyed or lost, filing with the City
Clerk by the registered owner evidence satisfactory to the City that such Bond was destroyed or
lost, and furnishing the City with a sufficient indemnity bond pursuant to Section 47-8405, Arizona
Revised Statutes.
Section 10.
Book-Entry Depository. Notwithstanding any provision of this Ordinance
or of any Bond to the contrary, the City may enter into an agreement with the registered owner of
a Bond in the custody of a Depository or a Bank Lender providing for making all payments to that
registered owner of payments of principal and interest on that Bond or any part thereof (other than
any payment of the entire unpaid principal amount thereof) at a place and in a manner (including
wire transfer of funds) other than as provided in this Ordinance and in the Bond, without prior
presentation or surrender of the Bond, upon any conditions which shall be satisfactory to the City;
provided, that payment in any event shall be made to the person who is the registered owner of that
Bond, on the date or other date duly agreed upon that principal and premium is due, and, with
respect to the payment of interest, as of the applicable regular record date or special record date or
other date as duly agreed upon as the case may be.
If any Depository determines not to continue to act as a Depository for the Bonds for use
in a Book Entry System, the City may attempt to have established a securities depository/book
entry relationship with another qualified Depository. If the City does not or is unable to do so, the
City and the Bond Registrar, after the Bond Registrar has made provision with the Depository for
notification of the Beneficial Owners by the then Depository, shall permit withdrawal of the Bonds
from the Depository, and authenticate and deliver replacement Bonds in fully registered form in
the denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof to the assignees of the Depository or
its nominee. If the event is not the result of City action or inaction, such withdrawal, authentication
and delivery shall be at the cost and expense (including costs of printing definitive Bonds) of those
persons requesting such authentication and delivery.
Section 11.
Form of Bond. The Bonds shall be in substantially the following form, the
officials executing the Bonds to make the insertions and deletions necessary to conform the Bonds
to this Ordinance:

Payments are to be made into said fund from taxes to be levied on all taxable property in the City
and the money in said fund is to be used solely to pay principal of and interest on the bonds of the
issue of which this is one. Such taxes, together with other monies to be deposited in said fund
(including earnings on investments made with money in said fund), are required to be sufficient to
pay such principal, interest and redemption premiums, if any, when due.
Reference is made to the Bond Ordinance for a more complete description of the
provisions, among others, with respect to the nature and extent of the security for the Bonds, the
rights, duties and obligations of the City, the Bond Registrar and the registered owners, and the
terms and conditions upon which the Bonds are issued and secured. The registered owner of this
Bond assents, by acceptance hereof, to all of the provisions of the Bond Ordinance.
It is hereby certified and recited that all acts and conditions necessary to be performed by
the City or to have been met precedent to and in the issuance of the Bonds in order to make them
legal, valid and binding special obligations of the City, have been performed and have been met in
regular and due form as required by law; that payment in full for the Bonds has been received; and

Section 12.
Delivery of Bonds. The Mayor or any Authorized Officer shall cause the

a true transcript of proceedings with reference to the issuance of the Bonds, to the Purchasers upon
payment of the par value thereof plus the net premium or less the discount set forth in the Bond
Purchase Agreement or certificate and receipt of the Bank Lender.
Section 13.
Application of Proceeds. The proceeds from the sale of the Bonds shall be
paid into the proper fund or funds and credited to separate book accounts, and those proceeds are
appropriated and shall be used in the amounts and solely for the purposes as set forth in the
respective ballot question submitted to the qualified voters of the City at the aforesaid special bond
elections, as determined by an Authorized Officer, subject to the provisions of Arizona Revised
Statutes, Section 35-457.D. The proceeds of the Bonds will be invested pursuant to State law. The
City shall include in its records sufficient information to identify the proceeds, expenditures and
investment income relating to the Bonds.
Section 14.
Allocation of Bonds Between 6% and 20% Debt Limits; Ratification of Prior
Actions. An Authorized Officer is hereby authorized to determine the respective allocations
between the 6% and 20% debt limitations set forth and in accordance with applicable law. All
prior allocations of bond proceeds to specific ballot propositions as set forth in the Whereas clauses
herein and as between 6% and 20% to debt limits are hereby affirmed and ratified.
Section 15.
Security for the Bonds; Covenants. For the purpose of paying principal of
and interest on the bonds herein authorized there shall be levied on all taxable property in the City
of Glendale a continuing, direct, annual ad valorem tax sufficient to produce the amounts required
below; said amounts are hereby found sufficient and necessary to assure payment of the principal
of and interest on said Bonds as the same become due at or prior to maturity. In each year the
money derived from said tax shall be paid into separate funds which are hereby created and named
the “Interest Fund” and the “Redemption Fund”. Such Interest Fund and Redemption Fund shall
be kept separately by the City for the equal benefit of the holders of the Bonds herein authorized
and used solely for the payment of principal of and interest on such Bonds. There shall be paid
into said Interest Fund and Redemption Fund the accrued interest and any premium received by
the City from the Purchasers of the Bonds herein authorized plus an amount sufficient to pay all
interest when due on said Bonds plus the amounts on or prior to July 1 in the years determined by
an Authorized Officer.
If at the time of any annual tax levy the amount in the Interest Fund and Redemption Fund
accumulated as hereinabove required shall not be sufficient to pay all principal and interest falling
due on said Bonds prior to the time that taxes will become available from the next succeeding tax
levy, the City shall include in such earlier tax levy such additional amount as shall produce funds
sufficient to remedy any such deficiency and deposit the proceeds of said taxes into the Interest

ACTIVE 700058839v2
-15-
Fund and Redemption Fund. Whenever there shall be insufficient money in the Interest Fund and
Redemption Fund to pay Bonds and interest thereon payable therefrom when due, the City may
pay such principal and interest from any other legally available fund and shall reimburse such other
fund when money becomes available from the proceeds of the taxes hereinabove required.

related to preparing and distributing a form of Preliminary Official Statement, to be used if any of

Section 18.
Tax Covenants. The City covenants that it will use, and will restrict the use

(the “Code”), or (ii) be treated other than as bonds to which Section 103(a) of the Code applies,
and (b) the interest thereon will not be treated as a preference item under Section 57 of the Code.
The City further covenants (a) that it will take or cause to be taken such actions that may
be required of it for the interest on the Bonds to be and remain excluded from gross income for
federal income tax purposes, (b) that it will not take or authorize to be taken any actions that would
adversely affect that exclusion, and (c) that it, or persons acting for it, will, among other acts of
compliance, (i) apply the proceeds of the Bonds to the governmental purposes of the borrowing,

government, (iv) maintain books and records and make calculations and reports, and (v) refrain
from certain uses of those proceeds and, as applicable, of property financed with such proceeds,

designation, choice, consent, approval, or waiver on behalf of the City with respect to the Bonds
as the City is permitted or required to make or give under the federal income tax laws, including,
without limitation thereto, any of the elections provided for or available under Section 148 of the
Code, for the purpose of assuring, enhancing or protecting favorable tax treatment or status of the
Bonds or interest thereon or assisting compliance with requirements for that purpose, reducing the
burden or expense of such compliance, reducing the rebate amount or payments of penalties, or
making payments of special amounts in lieu of making computations to determine, or paying,
excess earnings as rebate, or obviating those amounts or payments, as determined by that officer,
which action shall be in writing and signed by the officer, (b) to take any and all other actions,
make or obtain calculations, make payments, and make or give reports, covenants and
certifications of and on behalf of the City, as may be appropriate to assure the exclusion of interest
from gross income and the intended tax status of the Bonds, and (c) to give one or more appropriate
certificates of the City for inclusion in the transcript of the proceedings for the Bonds, setting forth
the reasonable expectations of the City regarding the amount and use of all the proceeds of the
Bonds, the facts, circumstances and estimates on which they are based, and other facts and
circumstances relevant to the tax treatment of the interest on and the tax status of the Bonds.
