The Series 2005 Refunding Bonds of the issue of which this Series 2005 Refunding Bond is one are issuable in the form of registered bonds without coupons in the denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple of $5,000. Subject to such conditions and upon the payment of such charges, the owner of any Series 2005 Refunding Bond or Series 2005 Refunding Bonds may surrender the same (together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the Owner or his duly authorized attorney), in exchange for an equal aggregate principal amount of registered Series 2005 Refunding Bonds of any other authorized denominations of the same issue.
The Series 2005 Refunding Bonds maturing on or after July 1, 20[__], are subject to the right of the City to redeem the same prior to maturity from any source, in whole at any time, or in part on any interest payment date, of such maturities as shall be selected by the City (and within a maturity as selected by the Trustee in such manner as it shall deem fair and appropriate), on and after July 1, 20[__], at a Redemption Price equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount of Series 2005 Refunding Bonds to be redeemed, together with accrued interest to the redemption date.
The Series 2005 Refunding Bonds of the issue of which this Bond is one are payable upon redemption at the above-mentioned office of the Trustee and any Paying Agents. Notice of redemption shall be mailed to each owner of a Series 2005 Refunding Bond subject to redemption not less than thirty (30) days prior to the redemption date, all in the manner and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture. If notice of redemption shall have been mailed as aforesaid, the Series 2005 Refunding Bonds or portions thereof specified in said notice shall become due and payable at the applicable redemption price on the redemption date, and if moneys for the payment of the redemption price of all the Series 2005 Refunding Bonds to be redeemed, together with interest to the redemption date, shall be available for such payment on said date, then from and after the redemption date interest on such Series 2005 Refunding Bonds shall cease to accrue and become payable to the owners entitled to payment thereof on such redemption.
As provided in the Indenture, until the termination of the system of book-entry-only transfers through the Depository Trust Company (together with any successor securities depository appointed pursuant to the Indenture, "DTC"), and notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture to the contrary, a portion of the principal amount of this Bond may be paid or redeemed without surrender hereof to the paying agent. DTC or a nominee, transferee or assignee of DTC as owner of this Bond may not rely upon the principal amount indicated hereon as the principal amount hereof outstanding and unpaid. The principal amount hereof outstanding and unpaid shall for all purposes be the amount determined in the manner provided in the Indenture.
Unless this Series 2005 Refunding Bond is presented by an authorized officer of DTC (a) to the Paying Agent for registration of transfer or exchange or (b) to the Paying Agent for payment of principal, and any Series 2005 Refunding Bond issued in replacement thereof or substitution therefor is registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as requested by an authorized representative of DTC and any payment is made to DTC, any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful since the registered owner hereof, DTC or its nominee, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.
This Series 2005 Refunding Bond does not constitute an indebtedness of the City within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation or provision, and the taxing power of the City is not pledged to the payment hereof, either as to principal, premium or interest.
It is hereby certified and recited that all conditions, acts and things required by the Constitution and by the laws of the State of Missouri or the Indenture to exist, to have happened or to have been performed precedent to or contemporaneously with the issuance of this Series 2005 Refunding Bond, exist, have happened and have been performed.
This Series 2005 Refunding Bond shall not be entitled to any security, right or benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been duly executed by the Trustee.
