The Escrow Contract shall contain such terms and conditions as shall be necessary or required, including terms and conditions required for the completion of the Refunding Financial Plan, including provisions for the Escrow Holder, without further authorization or direction from the Board of Trustees of the Village, except as otherwise provided therein, including, without limitation, (i) to make all required payments of principal, interest and any redemption premiums to appropriate paying agents with respect to the Refunded Bonds, (ii) to pay costs and expenses incidental to the issuance of the Refunding Bonds, including the development of the Refunding Financial Plan, and of executing and performing the terms and conditions of the Escrow Contract by the Escrow Holder, (iii) at the appropriate time or times, to cause to be given on behalf of the Village in the manner provided by law the notice of redemption authorized to be given pursuant to Section 7 hereof, and (iv) to invest the moneys held by the Escrow Holder pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Contract and consistent with the provisions of the Refunding Financial Plan.

Any such moneys remaining in the custody of the Escrow Holder after the performance in full of the Escrow Contract by the Escrow Holder shall be returned to the Village and shall be applied by the Village Treasurer to the payment of the principal of or interest on the Refunding Bonds then outstanding, to the payment of any amounts required to be paid to the United States of America in connection with the refunding of the Refunding Bonds or to the payment of or reimbursement for the costs of issuance or other administrative costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the Refunding Bonds. In connection with the investment of moneys held by the Escrow Holder under the Escrow Contract, the Village Treasurer is authorized to execute on behalf of the Village any forward purchase or supply contract for the purchase or supply of the securities described in this subsection (b) at a date subsequent to the delivery of the Refunding Bonds, as is needed to accomplish the purposes of the Refunding Financial Plan. Section 4. The financial plan for the refunding authorized by this resolution (the “Refunding Financial Plan”), showing the sources and amounts of all moneys required to accomplish such refunding, the estimated present value of the total debt service savings and the basis for the computation of the aforesaid estimated present value of total debt service savings, is set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof. The Refunding Financial Plan has been prepared based upon the assumption that the Refunding Bonds will be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $3,755,000 and will mature, be of such terms, and bear such interest as set forth in the Refunding Financial Plan. The Board of Trustees of the Village recognizes that the principal amount of the Refunding Bonds, the series, maturities, terms, interest rate or rates borne by the Refunding Bonds, the provisions for redemption thereof prior to maturity and whether or not all of the Refunding Bonds will be insured, and the resulting present value savings are likely to vary from such assumptions and that the Refunding Financial Plan will likely vary from that attached hereto as Exhibit B. The Village Treasurer is hereby authorized and directed to determine the principal amount of the Refunding Bonds to be issued, the series and designation or designations thereof, the time or times of the sale thereof, the maturities and terms thereof, the provisions relating to the redemption of the Refunding Bonds prior to maturity, if any, the rate or rates of interest to be borne thereby, whether or not the Refunding Bonds will be insured in whole or in part or uninsured, and to prepare, or cause to be provided, a final Refunding Financial Plan, all in accordance herewith, and all powers in connection therewith may be exercised by the Village Treasurer; provided, that the terms of the Refunding Bonds to be issued, including the rate or rates of interest borne thereby, shall comply with the requirements of Section 90.10 of the Local Finance Law. The Village Treasurer shall file a copy of a certificate determining the details of the Refunding Bonds and the final Refunding Financial Plan with the Village Clerk within ten (10) days after the delivery of the Refunding Bonds, as herein provided. Section 5. The faith and credit of the Village are hereby irrevocably pledged to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Refunding Bonds as the same respectively become due and payable. An annual appropriation shall be made in each year sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Refunding Bonds becoming due and payable in such year. To the extent that the same are not paid from other sources, there shall be annually levied on all the taxable real property in the Village a tax sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Refunding Bonds as the same become due and payable, subject to applicable statutory limitations imposed by Chapter 97 of the Laws of 2011 of the State. Section 6. Proceeds from the sale of the Refunding Bonds, including any accrued interest and, together with interest earned thereon, which shall be required for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Refunded Bonds, including any redemption or call premiums, in accordance with the Refunding Financial Plan, shall be irrevocably committed and pledged to such purpose and the owners of the Refunded Bonds shall have a lien upon such moneys and the investments thereof held by the Escrow Holder. The pledge and lien provided by this resolution shall become valid and binding upon the issuance of the Refunding Bonds and the moneys and investments held by the Escrow Holder shall immediately be subject thereto without any further act. Such pledge and lien shall be valid and binding against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract, equity, at law or otherwise against the Village irrespective of whether such parties have notice thereof. Neither this resolution, the Escrow Contract, nor any other instrument relating to such pledge and lien, needs to be filed or recorded. Section 7. In accordance with the terms of the Refunded Bonds and the provisions of Section 53.00 and of paragraph (h) of Section 90.10 of the Local Finance Law, the Village hereby elects to call in and redeem each Refunded Bond, which the Village Treasurer shall determine to be refunded at the earliest call date available. The sum to be paid therefor on such redemption date shall be the par value thereof plus the redemption premium, if any, and the accrued interest to such redemption date. The Escrow Holder is hereby authorized and directed to cause notice of such call for redemption to be given in the name of the Village in the manner and within the times provided in the issuance proceedings for the Refunded Bonds. Such notice of redemption shall be in substantially the form attached to the Escrow Contract. Upon the issuance of the Refunding Bonds, the election to call in and redeem the Refunded Bonds and the direction to the Escrow Holder to cause notice thereof to be given as provided in this paragraph shall become irrevocable, provided that this paragraph may be amended from time to time as may be necessary in order to comply with the notice requirements of paragraph (a) of Section 53.00 of the Local Finance Law, or any successor law thereto. It is hereby determined that with respect to the series of Refunded Bonds to be called in and redeemed as provided in this Section 7, it is to the financial advantage of the Village not to charge, impose and collect or receive from registered owners of the Refunded Bonds mailing, shipping, insurance or other similar charges in connection with such redemption or calls. Accordingly, pursuant to paragraph (c) of Section 70.00 of the Local Finance Law, no such charges shall be so charged, collected or received by the Chief Fiscal Officer, as fiscal agent. Section 8. The Refunding Bonds shall be sold at a public sale using a notice of sale, or at the election of the Village Treasurer, at a private sale by negotiation, in either case to a purchaser (the “Purchaser”) for a purchase price to be determined by the Village Treasurer, plus accrued interest from the date of the delivery of and payment for the Refunding Bonds, subject to the approval of the terms and conditions of such sale by the State Comptroller as may be required by subdivision 2 of paragraph f of Section 90.10 of the Local Finance Law. If sold at a public sale, the Village Treasurer is hereby authorized to conduct such public sale in accordance with the provisions of the Local Finance Law and all other applicable statutes and regulations, and to make all final decisions with respect to or arising out of such public sale. After the Refunding Bonds have been duly executed, they shall be delivered by the Village Treasurer to the Purchaser in accordance with the notice of sale or a purchase contract between the Village and the Purchaser, which shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Village Treasurer.

In order to describe and specify certain terms of the Village’s continuing disclosure agreement for that purpose, and thereby to implement that agreement, including provisions for enforcement, amendment and termination, the Village Treasurer is authorized and directed to sign and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Village, the commitment authorized by subsection 6(c) of the Rule (the “Commitment”), to be placed on file with the Village Clerk, which shall constitute the continuing disclosure agreement made by the Village for the benefit of holders and beneficial owners of the obligations in accordance with the Rule, with any changes or amendments that are not inconsistent with this resolution and not substantially adverse to the Village and that are approved by the Village Treasurer on behalf of the Village, all of which shall be conclusively evidenced by the signing of the Commitment or amendments thereto. The agreement formed collectively by this paragraph and the Commitment, shall be the Village’s continuing disclosure agreement for purposes of the Rule, and its performance shall be subject to the availability of funds and their annual appropriation to meet the costs the Village would be required to incur to perform thereunder. The Village Treasurer is further authorized and directed to establish procedures in order to ensure compliance by the Village with its continuing disclosure agreement, including the timely provision of information and notices.
