At the October 21HEDRA meeting staff was directed to approve the request
of Gardner House, LLC (Hastings Beauty School) to amend their existing loan
agreement to lower the interest rate from 9% to 7% retroactive to June 21,

Gardner House, LLC.
Please see attached amendment for further information.
C.Himle Horner – Marketing RFQ Response.
Included in the packet you will find a proposal for marketing services from
Himle Horner Inc. The proposal includes a three phased plan for assisting
HEDRA in developing a marketing plan that would help the Commission
promote existing local businesses and their growth, help attract new
businesses to the community, increase awareness of what Hastings has to offer
to businesses and customers alike and contribute to the short- and long-term
economic sustainability of our community. Each of these phases has been
broken down to help make them affordable and fit within our budget. Please
be aware as you review the plan that Phase A is meant to be done with the
2010 budget and then Phase B would then be done with the 2011 budget.
Phase 1A is optional; but if the commission chooses to do it, it should be done
simultaneously with Phase A.Phase 1A it would enhance our overall
marketing plan and give us a better understand where we are starting from and
what we will need to do to get to our end result.
In the proposed 2011 budget, $60,000 has been allocated towards professional
services. The majority of funding is anticipated to conduct further planning of
the Hudson site. Marketing was not specifically allocated in the 2011 budget.
HEDRA will need to prioritize allocation of professional services funds
between Hudson, marketing, and other efforts.
ACTION –Direct Staff to further develop a marketing agreement with
Himle Horner.
Please see attached proposal for further information.
REPORTS
A.TH 61 Bridge Update
The following update was sent October 29, 2010 by City Engineer, Nick Egger:
The contractor started pile-driving activities on the north side of the river
earlier this week, which was then hampered by the weather on Tuesday and
Wednesday. They are back to it now and will continue to do this type of work
for the next several months in many places on the northern half of the project.
No pile driving will be necessary on the south side of the river because of
shallow bedrock. See the City’s FB page for a couple of photos and more
details on pile driving.
Speaking of piles, loads of it keep coming in on barges and unloaded at the
staging area, where it is being temporarily stored and inspected.
There is now a small barge anchored in the river across from the staging area.
This will part of the assembly that ultimately supports the construction of the
main span arch during the next 14 months.
Work is scheduled to occur next week to install a cofferdam on the northern
side of river to conduct pile driving work associated with the northernmost
bridge pier. A cofferdam is essentially a large tube like structure open to the
surface that provides a dry work space below the surface of a body of water.
No news on the timeline for the Hudson demolition work this week. I am
assuming they’re still working on trying to get started in November.
Xcel Energy crews continue to work on relocating their facilities near the river
behind Hudson and beneath the existing Bridge.
B.Park and Ride Lot Update
Staff is still waiting for the grant agreement and lease agreement documents from
Metropolitan Council related to the $600,000 construction grant. The Transit
Committee of City Council (Schultz, Alongi, and Hollenbeck) discussed the park
st
and ride lot at their November 1meeting. The Committee concurred with
HEDRA that relinquishing control of the property was not favored. We will
further discuss with Met Council options to change the appropriation to eliminate
ownership provision.
C. Lanoga Corporation (Pro-Build-UBC) Closure
Pro-Build has ceased operation at its 1101 Spiral Boulevard location in the
Hastings Industrial Park. Lanoga Corporation (its parent company) entered into a
business subsidy agreement with the City of Hastings on July 5, 2005. Lanoga
agreed to create certain number of jobs and stay in business for at least five years.
The jobs requirement was satisfied in 2008; however they have not fulfilled the
business stay provision. Based on our initial calculations, Lanoga owes
approximately $40,000 is subsidy repayment to the City.

A. Hudson Manufacturing – Contingency Items.
HEDRA has until October 25, 2010 to waive or satisfy contingency items per the Hudson
Manufacturing Purchase Agreement. In late September, on-site environmental testing was
conducted, including:
• Installation of test pits to determine the existence of buried waste
and debris.
• Installation of groundwater monitoring wells.
• Installation of vapor probes to identify subsurface vapors
• Installation of hand auger borings inside the existing building to determine
evidence of waste or contamination beneath the building
Results were analyzed at thelab andEric Hesse from Liesch Environmental was at the
meeting toprovide a reportto the commissionon environmental testing results. Overall the
site is in better condition than anticipated, and no worse than any other site the HRA has
acquiredin the past.
There will be clean-up of the site necessary but there are several opportunities for grant
dollars to help with the cost of clean up. With the City’s involvementHEDRA will be eligible
for assistance from the County, State and Federal Government that other investors would
not have access to.
After much discussion Commissioner Toppin motioned to approve resolution No. 8 – 2010
with additional language that clearly states that Hudson will “mitigate damaged asbestos
and lead paint and hold the City and HEDRA harmless.”Commissioner Peine seconded
the motion.

the HRA on June 21, 2005. The note had an initial interest rate of 4% per annum, and
adjusted to 9% on June 21, 2010. Mr. Lynch seeks a lower rate and has suggested 7%.

7%, Commissioner Topping seconded the motion.
Motion Passed 5-0
F. Hastings Beauty School – Skateboard Damage
Dan Lynch of Hastings Beauty School, 221 East 2nd Street (Gardiner House) has
submitted a letter asking for assistance to alleviate damage caused tohis structure
by skateboarders. Currently HEDRA doesnot have commercial grant funds
specifically allocated within the budgetthat could be used to assist Mr. Lynch.
The Commission discussed various options and suggest Mr. Lynch look into adding
some type of wrought iron fence to stop skate boarders from being able to jump onto
the window sills and thus prevent the damage which is currently occurring. The
commission suggested that then perhaps there possibly would besome type of grant
available that he could apply for with HEDRA’s assistance.

EPORTS
A. Hudson Manufacturing Bond Sale
HEDRA has received two responses to our bond sale proposal. It appears our annual debt
service on the 20 year general obligation bonds will be less than originally anticipated. We
had planned on a $260,000 annual debt payment; the lowest response submitted had an
annual average debt service payment of $230,000. HEDRA isscheduled to take final action
on the bond sale at its November 9th meeting.

mural located on the 2nd Street southabutment. The Visual Quality Team met on October
13th to discuss bridge lighting and color selection.Those attending the open house
preferred a blue color. The VQT discussed whether a bold color orlighter color was
preferable. The bridge design staff will present updated color rendering at the next VQT
meeting and have discussed having the community vote on three final colors.
C. Park and Ride Lot Update
City staff met with Metropolitan Council to discuss the grant agreement for use of the
$600,000 allocation from the Red Rock Corridor. Metropolitan Council was designated as
the fund disburser. The language of the original allocation requires Met Council to be owner
of the property. City Staff voiced its concern over conveying the property.Community

RESOLUTION NO. 9-2010 PROVIDING FOR THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF
$2,855,000 TAXABLE LIMITED TAX OBLIGATION BONDS, SERIES 2010A
AND PLEDGING FOR THE SECURITY THEREOF TAX INCREMENTS
A.WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners of the Hastings Economic
Development and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Hastings, Minnesota (the
"Authority"), has heretofore determined and declared that it is necessary and expedient to issue
$2,855,000 Taxable Limited Tax Obligation Bonds, Series 2010A (the "Bonds" or individually
the "Bond"), pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.033 and Chapter 475, to finance the
acquisition of riverfront property owned by Hudson Sprayer Company located in the City of
Hastings, Minnesota (the "Project"); and
B.WHEREAS, the Authority has retained Ehlers and Associates, Inc., in Roseville,
Minnesota, as its independent financial advisor for the sale of the Bonds and was therefore
authorized to sell the Bonds by private negotiation in accordance with Minnesota Statutes,
Section 475.60, Subdivision 2(9); and
C.WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of the Authority that the Bonds be issued in
book-entry form as hereinafter provided; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of the
Hastings Economic Development and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Hastings,
Minnesota, as follows:
1.Acceptance of Offer. The offer of Northland Securities, Inc. (the "Purchaser"), to
purchase the Bonds in accordance with the terms and at the rates of interest hereinafter set forth,
and to pay therefor the sum of $________________, plus interest accrued to settlement, is
hereby accepted.
2.Bond Terms.
(a)Title; Original Issue Date; Denominations; Maturities. The Bonds shall be titled

date of original issue, shall be issued forthwith on or after such date in fully registered form,
shall be numbered from R-1 upward in the denomination of $5,000 each or in any integral
multiple thereof of a single maturity (the "Authorized Denominations") and shall mature on
February 1 in the years and amounts as follows:
YearAmountYearAmount
2012$2022$

As may be requested by the Purchaser, one or more term Bonds may be issued having
mandatory sinking fund redemption and final maturity amounts conforming to the foregoing
principal repayment schedule, and corresponding additions may be made to the provisions of the
applicable Bond(s).
(b)Book Entry Only System. The Depository Trust Company, a limited purpose
trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York or any of its successors or its
successors to its functions hereunder (the "Depository") will act as securities depository for the
Bonds, and to this end:
(i) The Bonds shall be initially issued and, so long as they remain in book entry
form only (the "Book Entry Only Period"), shall at all times be in the form of a separate
single fully registered Bond for each maturity of the Bonds; and for purposes of
complying with this requirement under paragraphs 5 and 10 Authorized Denominations
for any Bond shall be deemed to be limited during the Book Entry Only Period to the
outstanding principal amount of that Bond.
(ii) Upon initial issuance, ownership of the Bonds shall be registered in a bond
register maintained by the Bond Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in the name of CEDE
& CO., as the nominee (it or any nominee of the existing or a successor Depository, the
"Nominee").
(iii) With respect to the Bonds neither the Authority nor the Bond Registrar shall
have any responsibility or obligation to any broker, dealer, bank, or any other financial
institution for which the Depository holds Bonds as securities depository (the
"Participant") or the person for which a Participant holds an interest in the Bonds shown
on the books and records of the Participant (the "Beneficial Owner"). Without limiting
the immediately preceding sentence, neither the Authority, nor the Bond Registrar, shall
have any such responsibility or obligation with respect to (A) the accuracy of the records
of the Depository, the Nominee or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest
in the Bonds, or (B) the delivery to any Participant, any Owner or any other person, other
than the Depository, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of
redemption, or (C) the payment to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other
person, other than the Depository, of any amount with respect to the principal of or
premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds, or (D) the consent given or other action taken
by the Depository as the Registered Holder of any Bonds (the "Holder"). For purposes of
securing the vote or consent of any Holder under this Resolution, the Authority may,
however, rely upon an omnibus proxy under which the Depository assigns its consenting
or voting rights to certain Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the
record date identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.
(iv) The Authority and the Bond Registrar may treat as and deem the Depository
to be the absolute owner of the Bonds for the purpose of payment of the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, for the purpose of giving notices of
redemption and other matters with respect to the Bonds, for the purpose of obtaining any
consent or other action to be taken by Holders for the purpose of registering transfers
with respect to such Bonds, and for all purpose whatsoever. The Bond Registrar, as
paying agent hereunder, shall pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the
Bonds only to the Holder or the Holders of the Bonds as shown on the bond register, and
all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the
Authority's obligations with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest
on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(v) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Bond Registrar of written notice to
the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new Nominee in place of the
existing Nominee, and subject to the transfer provisions in paragraph 10, references to the
Nominee hereunder shall refer to such new Nominee.
(vi) So long as any Bond is registered in the name of a Nominee, all payments
with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Bond and all
notices with respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, by the Bond
Registrar or City, as the case may be, to the Depository as provided in the Letter of
Representations to the Depository required by the Depository as a condition to its acting
as book-entry Depository for the Bonds (said Letter of Representations, together with any
replacement thereof or amendment or substitute thereto, including any standard
procedures or policies referenced therein or applicable thereto respecting the procedures
and other matters relating to the Depository's role as book-entry Depository for the
Bonds, collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Letter of Representations").
(vii) All transfers of beneficial ownership interests in each Bond issued in book-
entry form shall be limited in principal amount to Authorized Denominations and shall be
effected by procedures by the Depository with the Participants for recording and
transferring the ownership of beneficial interests in such Bonds.
(viii) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to the
Holders pursuant to this Resolution by the Authority or Bond Registrar with respect to
any consent or other action to be taken by Holders, the Depository shall consider the date
of receipt of notice requesting such consent or other action as the record date for such
consent or other action; provided, that the Authority or the Bond Registrar may establish
a special record date for such consent or other action. The Authority or the Bond
Registrar shall, to the extent possible, give the Depository notice of such special record
date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of such special record date to the extent
possible.
(ix) Any successor Bond Registrar in its written acceptance of its duties under
this Resolution and any paying agency/bond registrar agreement, shall agree to take any
actions necessary from time to time to comply with the requirements of the Letter of
Representations.
(c)Termination of Book-Entry Only System. Discontinuance of a particular
Depository's services and termination of the book-entry only system may be effected as follows:
(i) The Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with
respect to the Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the Authority and discharging
its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. The Authority may
terminate the services of the Depository with respect to the Bond if it determines that the
Depository is no longer able to carry out its functions as securities depository or the
continuation of the system of book-entry transfers through the Depository is not in the
best interests of the Authority or the Beneficial Owners.
(ii) Upon termination of the services of the Depository as provided in the
preceding paragraph, and if no substitute securities depository is willing to undertake the
functions of the Depository hereunder can be found which, in the opinion of the
Authority, is willing and able to assume such functions upon reasonable or customary
terms, or if the Authority determines that it is in the best interests of the Authority or the
Beneficial Owners of the Bond that the Beneficial Owners be able to obtain certificates
for the Bonds, the Bonds shall no longer be registered as being registered in the bond
register in the name of the Nominee, but may be registered in whatever name or names
the Holder of the Bonds shall designate at that time, in accordance with paragraph 10. To
the extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the transferee by the Holders, in
accordance with paragraph 10 hereof, the Bonds will be delivered to the Beneficial
Owners.
(iii) Nothing in this subparagraph (c) shall limit or restrict the provisions of
paragraph 10.
(d)Letter of Representations. The provisions in the Letter of Representations are
incorporated herein by reference and made a part of the resolution, and if and to the extent any
such provisions are inconsistent with the other provisions of this resolution, the provisions in the
Letter of Representations shall control.
3.Purpose. The Bonds shall provide funds to finance the Project. The total cost of
the Project, which shall include all costs enumerated in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65, is
estimated to be at least equal to the amount of the Bonds. Work on the Project shall proceed
with due diligence to completion. The Authority covenants that it shall do all things and perform
all acts required of it to assure that work on the Project proceeds with due diligence to
completion and that any and all permits and studies required under law for the Project are
obtained.
4.Interest. The Bonds shall bear interest payable semiannually on February 1 and
August 1 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing August 1, 2011,
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, at the respective rates per
annum set forth opposite the maturity years as follows:

5.Redemption. All Bonds maturing on February 1, 2031, and thereafter, shall be
subject to redemption and prepayment at the option of the Authority on February 1, 2031, and on
any date thereafter at a price of par plus accrued interest. Redemption may be in whole or in part
of the Bonds subject to prepayment. If redemption is in part, the maturity and the principal
amounts within each maturity to be redeemed shall be determined by the Authority and if only
part of the Bonds having a common maturity date are called for prepayment, the specific Bonds
to be prepaid shall be chosen by lot by the Bond Registrar. Bonds or portions thereof called for
redemption shall be due and payable on the redemption date, and interest thereon shall cease to
accrue from and after the redemption date. Mailed notice of redemption shall be given to the
paying agent and to each affected registered holder of the Bonds at least thirty days prior to the
date fixed for redemption.
To effect a partial redemption of Bonds having a common maturity date, the Bond
Registrar prior to giving notice of redemption shall assign to each Bond having a common
maturity date a distinctive number for each $5,000 of the principal amount of such Bond. The
Bond Registrar shall then select by lot, using such method of selection as it shall deem proper in
its discretion, from the numbers so assigned to such Bonds, as many numbers as, at $5,000 for
each number, shall equal the principal amount of such Bonds to be redeemed. The Bonds to be
redeemed shall be the Bonds to which were assigned numbers so selected; provided, however,
that only so much of the principal amount of each such Bond of a denomination of more than
$5,000 shall be redeemed as shall equal $5,000 for each number assigned to it and so selected. If
a Bond is to be redeemed only in part, it shall be surrendered to the Bond Registrar (with, if the
Authority or Bond Registrar so requires, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Authority and Bond Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or the Holder's attorney
duly authorized in writing) and the Authority shall execute (if necessary) and the Bond Registrar
shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Bond, without service charge, a new Bond or
Bonds of the same series having the same stated maturity and interest rate and of any Authorized
Denomination or Denominations, as requestedby such Holder, in aggregate principal amount
equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Bond so surrendered.
6.Bond Registrar. Bond Trust Services Corporation, Roseville, Minnesota, is
appointed to act as bond registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Bonds (the "Bond
Registrar"), and shall do so unless and until a successor Bond Registrar is duly appointed, all
pursuant to any contract the Authority and Bond Registrar shall execute which is consistent
herewith. The Bond Registrar shall also serve as paying agent unless and until a successor
paying agent is duly appointed. Principal and interest on the Bonds shall be paid to the
registered holders (or record holders) of the Bonds in the manner set forth in the form of Bond
and paragraph 12.
7.Form of Bond. The Bonds, together with the Bond Registrar's Certificate of
Authentication, the form of Assignment and the registration information thereon, shall be in
substantially the following form:

interest. Redemption may be in whole or in part of the Bonds subject to prepayment. If
redemption is in part, the maturity and the principal amounts within each maturity to be
redeemed shall be determined by the Issuer and if only part of the Bonds having a common
maturity date are called for prepayment, the specific Bonds to be prepaid shall be chosen by lot
by the Bond Registrar. Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall be due and payable
onthe redemption date, and interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after the redemption
date. Mailed notice of redemption shall be given to the paying agent and to each affected Holder
of the Bonds at least thirty days prior to the date fixed for redemption.
Prior to the date on which any Bond or Bonds are directed by the Issuer to be redeemed
in advance of maturity, the Issuer will cause notice of the call thereof for redemption identifying
the Bonds to be redeemed to be mailed to the Bond Registrar and all Bondholders, at the
addresses shown on the Bond Register. All Bonds so called for redemption will cease to bear
interest on the specified redemption date, provided funds for their redemption have been duly
deposited.
Selection of Bonds for Redemption; Partial Redemption. To effect a partial redemption
of Bonds having a common maturity date, the Bond Registrar shall assign to each Bond having a
common maturity date a distinctive number for each $5,000 of the principal amount of such
Bond. The Bond Registrar shall then select by lot, using such method of selection as it shall
deem proper in its discretion, from the numbers assigned to the Bonds, as many numbers as, at
$5,000 for each number, shall equal the principal amount of such Bonds to be redeemed. The
Bonds to be redeemed shall be the Bonds to which were assigned numbers so selected; provided,
however, that only so much of the principal amount of the Bond of a denomination of more than
$5,000 shall be redeemed as shall equal $5,000 for each number assigned to it and so selected. If
a Bond is to be redeemed only in part, it shall be surrendered to the Bond Registrar (with, if the
Issuer or Bond Registrar so requires, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Issuer and Bond Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or the Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing) and the Issuer shall execute (if necessary) and the Bond Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Bond, without service charge, a new Bond or Bonds
of the same stated maturity and interest rate and of any Authorized Denomination or
Denominations, as requested by the Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in
exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Bond so surrendered.
Issuance; Purpose. This Bond is one of an issue in the total principal amount of
$2,855,000, all of like date of original issue and tenor, except as to number, maturity, interest
rate and denomination, issued pursuant to and in full conformity with the Constitution and laws

acquisition of riverfront property currently used by Hudson Sprayer Company, and located in the
City of Hastings, Minnesota. This Bond is payable out of the Taxable Limited Tax Obligation
Bonds, Series 2010A Fund. This Bond is a special limited obligation of the Issuer, payable
solely from amounts pledged to the payment thereof pursuant to the Resolution. This Bond shall
not be a debt of the City of Hastings, Dakota County, Washington County, the State of
Minnesota, or any other political subdivision thereof, and neither the City of Hastings, Dakota
County, Washington County, the State of Minnesota, or any other political subdivision thereof
shall be liable on the Bonds, nor shall the Bonds be payable out of any funds or properties other
than those of the Issuer pledged thereto.
Denominations; Exchange; Resolution. The Bonds are issuable solely in fully registered
form in Authorized Denominations (as defined in the Resolution) and are exchangeable for fully
registered Bonds of other Authorized Denominations in equal aggregate principal amounts at the
principal office of the Bond Registrar, but only in the manner and subject to the limitations
provided in the Resolution. Reference is hereby made to the Resolution for a description of the
rights and duties of the Bond Registrar. Copies of the Resolution are on file in the principal
office of the Bond Registrar.
Transfer. This Bond is transferable by the Holder in person or by the Holder's attorney
duly authorized in writing at the principal office of the Bond Registrar upon presentation and
surrender hereof to the Bond Registrar, all subject to the terms and conditions provided in the
Resolution and to reasonable regulations of the Issuer contained in any agreement with the Bond
Registrar. Thereupon the Issuer shall execute and the Bond Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for this Bond, one or more new fully registered Bonds in the name of the
transferee (but not registered in blank or to "bearer" or similar designation), of an Authorized
Denomination or Denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of
this Bond, of the same maturity and bearing interest at the same rate.
Fees upon Transfer or Loss. The Bond Registrar may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with the transfer
or exchange of this Bond and any legal or unusual costs regarding transfers and lost Bonds.
Treatment of Registered Owners. The Issuer and Bond Registrar may treat the person in
whose name this Bond is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as
herein provided (except as otherwise provided herein with respect to the Record Date) and for all
other purposes, whether or not this Bond shall be overdue, and neither the Issuer nor the Bond
Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Authentication. This Bond shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose or be
entitled to any security unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been executed
by the Bond Registrar.
Taxable Interest. The interest on this Bond is included in the gross income of the owner
hereof for purposes of United States income tax and to the same extent in both gross income and
taxable net income for purposes of State of Minnesota income tax.
IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED AND RECITED that all acts, conditions and things
required by the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota to be done, to happen and to be
performed, precedent to and in the issuance of this Bond, have been done, have happened and
have been performed, in regular and due form, time and manner as required by law, and that this
Bond, together with all other debts of the Issuer outstanding on the date of original issue hereof
and the date of its issuance and delivery to the original purchaser, does not exceed any
constitutional or statutory limitation of indebtedness.

Authority of the City of Hastings, Minnesota, by its Board of Commissioners has caused this
Bond to be executed on its behalf by the facsimile signatures of its President and its Executive
Director, the corporate seal of the Issuer having been intentionally omitted as permitted by law.

typewritten) and shall be executed on behalf of the Authority by the signatures of its President
and Executive Director and be sealed with the seal of the Authority; provided, however, that the
seal of the Authority may be a printed (or, at the request of the Purchaser, photocopied) facsimile

officer. In case either such officer whose signature or facsimile of whose signature shall appear
on the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of the Bonds, such signature or
facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if he or she had
remained in office until delivery.
9.Authentication. No Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or be
entitled to any security or benefit under this resolution unless a Certificate of Authentication on
such Bond, substantially in the form hereinabove set forth, shall have been duly executed by an
authorized representative of the Bond Registrar. Certificates of Authentication on different
Bonds need not be signed by the same person. The Bond Registrar shall authenticate the
signatures of officers of the Authority on each Bond by execution of the Certificate of
Authentication on the Bond and by inserting as the date of registration in the space provided the
date on which the Bond is authenticated, except that for purposes of delivering the original
Bonds to the Purchaser, the Bond Registrar shall insert as a date of registration the date of
original issue, December 2, 2010. The Certificate of Authentication so executed on each Bond
shall be conclusive evidence that it has been authenticated and delivered under this resolution.
10.Registration; Transfer; Exchange. The Authority will cause to be kept at the
principal office of the Bond Registrar a bond register in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Bond Registrar may prescribe, the Bond Registrar shall provide for the
registration of Bonds and the registration of transfers of Bonds entitled to be registered or
transferred as herein provided.
Upon surrender for transfer of any Bond at the principal office of the Bond Registrar, the
Authority shall execute (if necessary), and the Bond Registrar shall authenticate, insert the date
of registration (as provided in paragraph 9) of, and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Bonds of any Authorized Denomination or
Denominations of a like aggregate principal amount, having the same stated maturity and interest
rate, as requested by the transferor; provided, however, that no Bond may be registered in blank
or in the name of "bearer" or similar designation.
At the option of the Holder, Bonds may be exchanged for Bonds of any Authorized
Denomination or Denominations of a like aggregate principal amount and stated maturity, upon
surrender of the Bonds to be exchanged at the principal office of the Bond Registrar. Whenever
any Bonds are so surrendered for exchange, the Authority shall execute (if necessary), and the
Bond Registrar shall authenticate, insert the date of registration of, and deliver the Bonds which
the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
All Bonds surrendered upon any exchange or transfer provided for in this resolution shall
be promptly canceled by the Bond Registrar and thereafter disposed of as directed by the
Authority.
All Bonds delivered in exchange for or upon transfer of Bonds shall be valid general
obligations of the Authority evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under
this resolution, as the Bonds surrendered for such exchange or transfer.
Every Bond presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or
be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Bond Registrar,
duly executed by the Holder thereof or the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing.
The Bond Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection with the transfer or exchange of any Bond and any
legal or unusual costs regarding transfers and lost Bonds.
Transfers shall also be subject to reasonable regulations of the Authority contained in any
agreement with the Bond Registrar, including regulations which permit the Bond Registrar to
close its transfer books between record dates and payment dates. The Executive Director is
hereby authorized to negotiate and execute the terms of said agreement.
11.Rights Upon Transfer or Exchange. Each Bond delivered upon transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Bond shall carry all the rights to interest accrued and unpaid,
and to accrue, which were carried by such other Bond.
12.Interest Payment; Record Date. Interest on any Bond shall be paid on each
Interest Payment Date by check or draft mailed to the person in whose name the Bond is
registered (the "Holder") on the registration books of the Authority maintained by the Bond
Registrar and at the address appearing thereon at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the
calendar month next preceding such Interest Payment Date (the "Regular Record Date"). Any
such interest not so timely paid shall cease to be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof
as of the Regular Record Date, and shall be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof at
the close of business on a date (the "Special Record Date") fixed by the Bond Registrar
whenever money becomes available for payment of the defaulted interest. Notice of the Special
Record Date shall be given by the Bond Registrar to the Holders not less than ten days prior to
the Special Record Date.
13.Treatment of Registered Owner. The Authority and Bond Registrar may treat the
person in whose name any Bond is registered as the owner of such Bond for the purpose of
receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest (subject to the payment
provisions in paragraph 12) on, such Bond and for all other purposes whatsoever whether or not
such Bond shall be overdue, and neither the Authority nor the Bond Registrar shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.
14.Delivery; Application of Proceeds. The Bonds when so prepared and executed
shall be delivered by the Executive Director to the Purchaser upon receipt of the purchase price,
and the Purchaser shall not be obliged to see to the proper application thereof.
15.Fund and Accounts. There is hereby created a special fund to be designated the
"Taxable Limited Tax Obligation Bonds, Series 2010A Fund" (the "Fund") to be administered
and maintained by the Executive Director as a bookkeeping account separate and apart from all
other funds maintained in the official financial records of the Authority. The Fund shall be
maintained in the manner herein specified until all of the Bonds and the interest thereon have
been fully paid. There shall be maintained in the Fund the following separate accounts:
(a)Project Account. To the Project Account there shall be credited the proceeds of
the sale of the Bonds, less capitalized interest in the amount of $_______________ (together
with interest earnings thereon and subject to such other adjustments as are appropriate to provide
sufficient funds to pay interest due on the Bonds on or before __________________). From the
Project Account there shall be paid all costs of issuance of the Bonds and all costs and expenses
of the Project, including all costs incurred and to be incurred of the kind authorized in Minnesota
Statutes, Section 475.65. Moneys in the Project Account shall be used for no other purpose
except as otherwise provided by law; provided that the proceeds of the Bonds may also be used
to the extent necessary to pay interest on the Bonds due prior to the receipt of the Special
Benefits Tax.
(b)Special Limited Tax Bond Fund. To the Special Limited Tax Bond Fund there is
hereby pledged and irrevocably appropriated and there shall be credited: (i) Special Benefits Tax
herein and hereinafter levied, in an amount sufficient, together with other sums herein pledged,
to pay the annual principal and interest payments on the Bonds; (ii) capitalized interest in the
amount of $_____________ (together with interest earnings thereon and subject to such other
adjustments as are appropriate to provide sufficient funds to pay interest due on the Bonds on or
before __________________); (iii) all funds remaining in the Project Account after completion
of the Project and payment of the costs thereof; (iv) all investment earnings on funds held in the
Special Limited Tax Bond Fund; and (v) any and all other moneys which are properly available
and are appropriated by the governing body of the Authority to the Special Limited Tax Bond
Fund. The Special Limited Tax Bond Fund shall be used solely to pay the principal and interest
and any premiums for redemption of the Bonds and any other general obligation bonds of the
Authority hereafter issued by the Authority and made payable from said account as provided by
law.
16.Special Benefits Tax. The Authority hereby covenants and agrees:
(a)to levy for collection in each year in which principal of or interest on the
Bonds is due and payable, its special benefits tax in an amount sufficient to pay not less
than 105% of:
(i) principal of and interest on the Bonds due in such year; and
(ii) the amount of its special benefits tax pledged to any Parity Debt (as
described below); and
(b)to submit to the City of Hastings, Minnesota (the "City") in each year
during which the Bonds are outstanding a budget in accordance with the requirements of
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.033, Subd. 6, and to take other actions necessary to levy
its special benefits tax in accordance with (a) above.
Upon receipt of each of the first half and the second half of its special benefits tax in each
year, the Authority shall deposit in the Special Limited Tax Bond Fund an amount sufficient to
pay debt service due and payable on the Bonds on the next interest payment date.
17.Parity Debt. The Authority may pledge its special benefits tax to other bonds or
debt obligations on a parity with the pledge made hereunder, provided however, that the
Authority shall not make any such pledge unless, at the time such pledge is initially made, the
maximum special benefits which the Authority is authorized to levy in the then current calendar
year is at least one hundred thirty percent (130%) of the total amount of its special benefits tax
pledged to the Bonds and all parity debt (including that relating to the parity debt then being
issued) in such year and each subsequent year during which the Bonds are outstanding.
18.Defeasance. When all Bonds have been discharged as provided in this paragraph,
all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this resolution to the registered holders of the
Bonds shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The Authority may discharge its obligations
with respect to any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably depositing with the Bond
Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full; or if any Bond
should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Bond
Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such
deposit. The Authority may also discharge its obligations with respect to any prepayable Bonds
called for redemption on any date when they are prepayable according to their terms, by
depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment
thereof in full, provided that notice of redemption thereof has been duly given. The Authority
may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the
provisions of law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing
irrevocably in escrow, with a suitable banking institution qualified by law as an escrow agent for
this purpose, cash or securities described in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 8,
bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates and maturing on such dates as shall be
required, without regard to sale and/or reinvestment, to pay all amounts to become due thereon to
maturity or, if notice of redemption as herein required has been duly provided for, to such earlier
redemption date.
19.Taxable Status of the Bonds. The Authority does not qualify the Bonds as tax-
exempt under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. It is hereby determined that the
Bonds are to be issued as fully taxable obligations, and all interest received on the Bonds is to be
included in the gross income of the Holder of any Bond for federal income taxation purposes
and, to the same extent, in both gross income and taxable net income for state income taxation
purposes.
20.Certificate of Registration. The Executive Director is hereby directed to file a
certified copy of this resolution with the County Auditor of Dakota County and Washington
County, Minnesota, together with such other information as the County Auditor shall require,
and to obtain from each County Auditor a certificate that the Bonds have been entered in the
County Auditor’s Bond Register.
21.Records and Certificates. The officers of the Authority are hereby authorized and
directed to prepare and furnish to the Purchaser, and to the attorneys approving the legality of the
issuance of the Bonds, certified copies of all proceedings and records of the Authority relating to
the Bonds and to the financial condition and affairs of the Authority, and such other affidavits,
certificates and information as are required to show the facts relating to the legality and
marketability of the Bonds as the same appear from the books and records under their custody
and control or as otherwise known to them, and all such certified copies, certificates and
affidavits, including any heretofore furnished, shall be deemed representations of the Authority
as to the facts recited therein.
22.Official Statement. The Official Statement relating to the Bonds, prepared and
delivered on behalf of the Authority, is hereby approved with such a final addendum, and the
officers of the Authority are hereby authorized and directed to execute such certificates as may
be appropriate concerning the accuracy, completeness and sufficiency thereof.
23.Severability. If any section, paragraph or provision of this resolution shall be held
to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity or unenforceability of such section,
paragraph or provision shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of this resolution.
24.Headings. Headings in this resolution are included for convenience of reference
only and are not a part hereof, and shall not limit or define the meaning of any provision hereof.
