Loan Agreement under Section 10.9.
For all purposes of this Resolution, unless the context otherwise requires, all
provisions relating to the redemption of Bonds shall relate, in the case of any Bond
redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of that Bond
that has been or is to be redeemed.
3.2 Extraordinary Redemption. The Bonds are subject to extraordinary
redemption prior to maturity, as a whole or in part as described below, at a
redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the
date fixed for redemption,
(1) as a whole or in part, on the first date for which timely notice of
redemption may be given, with Insurance Proceeds or a Condemnation Award (and, if
necessary, other money legally available therefor), if so required by Section 6.02 of the
Loan Agreement,
(2) as a whole, on the first Interest Payment Date for which timely
notice of redemption may be given, at the option of the City, upon an occurrence of an
event of default under the Loan Agreement, or
(3) only in the case of Bonds that are Recovery Zone Facility Bonds,
as a whole or in part, on the first date for which timely notice of redemption can be
given upon receipt by the Bank of an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such
redemption is required to prevent a Determination of Taxability. as a whole or in part,
on the first date for which timely notice of redemption can be given upon receipt by the
Bank of an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such redemption is required to
prevent a Determination of Taxability.
No Bonds shall be redeemed upon the occurrence of any of the events specified
above unless sufficient funds are deposited with the City to pay the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to be redeemed. The City shall not be
required to obtain any opinion of Bond Counsel described in subsection (2), and the
expense of obtaining any such opinion shall be paid by the Borrower. Bonds shall be
selected for redemption such that the principal amount of Bonds of each maturity
after the extraordinary redemption shall be proportional to the principal amount of
Bonds of each maturity prior to the extraordinary redemption or in such other manner
as directed in writing by the Borrower to meet the requirements of Section 6.02 of the
Loan Agreement.
3.3 Notice and Effect of Call for Redemption. When the Bank is the
Owner of the Bonds, notice of any intended redemption of Bonds shall be given as
provided in the Loan Agreement. When the Bank is not the Owner of all Outstanding
Bonds, The City shall give notice of redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid,
mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date to each
Owner of Bonds to be redeemed at the address of such Owner appearing in the Bond
Register, and to such other Persons as the City shall deem appropriate, including all
Persons then required by law or regulation to receive notice of redemption of the
Bonds. The failure of the Registrar to mail notice of redemption to Persons other than
the Owners of Bonds to be redeemed shall not affect the sufficiency of the proceedings
for redemption.
All notices of redemption shall be dated and shall state: (1) the redemption date;
(2) the redemption price; (3) if fewer than all outstanding Bonds are to be redeemed,
Resolution No. 2010 -37
Page 9 of 24

amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed; (4) that on the redemption date the redemption
price will become due and payable upon each such Bond or portion thereof called for
redemption, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date;

redemption price, which place of payment shall be the office of the Registrar.

in accordance with Section 3.2(3) shall be given by the City within five Business Days
after receipt by the City of an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such
redemption is required and of sufficient funds to pay the redemption price of the
Bonds to be redeemed, and the redemption date shall be not more than 10 days after
the notice of such redemption is mailed by the City.
Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the principal of and
premium, if any, on the Bonds so to be redeemed shall become due and payable on
the date fixed for redemption, and on and after such date (unless the City shall default
in the payment of the redemption price) the principal amount of those Bonds shall
cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Bond for redemption in
accordance with such notice, that Bond shall be paid at the redemption price thereof
to the extent that money is on deposit with the City for that purpose. Neither the
failure of an Owner to receive such notice nor any defect in any notice to any other
Owner shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for such redemption with respect
to that Owner.
If any Bond called for redemption shall not be so paid on the redemption date
upon proper surrender of the Bond for redemption, the redemption price and, to the
extent lawful, interest thereon shall, until paid, bear interest from the redemption date
at the rate borne by the Bond immediately before the redemption date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to optional redemptions only, if the
City does not have funds in its possession on the redemption date sufficient to pay the
redemption price (including interest accruing to the date fixed for redemption) of all of
the Bonds to be optionally redeemed for any reason (including failure to issue any
refunding bonds intended for such purpose on or prior to the redemption date), then
the purported optional redemption and such notice of redemption shall be void. Such
event shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder, and the City shall not be
subject to any liability to the Owners or any other person as a result of such failure to
redeem Bonds.
If any Bond is to be redeemed only in part, it shall be surrendered to the
Registrar (with, if the Registrar so requires, due endorsement by, or a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by, the
Owner thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing) and the appropriate officers of
the City shall execute and deliver to the Owner of that Bond, without service charge, a
new Bond or Bonds of the same maturity and interest rate, as requested by that
Owner, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal of the Bond surrendered.

Re: Resolution 2010 -37 Authorizing the Sale of Revenue Bonds to support economic
development within the City.
Resolution 2010 -37 is the final step in the process of assisting Double Glacier Builders, LLC
(formerly identified as Pfeffer Development Inc.) with a planned development in the City of
Kenai. As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) the Recovery Zone
Facility Bond program was created allowing private entities to receive conduit funding through
sponsoring public entities at tax exempt financing rates. Private entities typically borrow at
taxable interest rates causing the cost of financing to typically be 1.5% higher.
As the conduit for this financing, the City of Kenai will immediately assign all interest in the
debt to First National Bank. The effect will be assuring the City of Kenai and its taxpayers in no
way are obligated for the debt once the process is complete.
Resolution 2010 -37 authorizes the City to issue revenue bonds for the project and authorizes the
City Manager and Finance Director to determine the appropriate terms of the financing.
