(g) Pursuant to a solicitation process, SunTrust Bank (the "Purchaser") has

SECTION 2.01. AUTHORIZATION OF BONDS. The City is hereby authorized to issue
its general obligation bonds designated as"City of Dania Beach,Florida General Obligation Bonds,
Series 2010"in the aggregate principal amount of$3,500,000 for the purpose of providing funds to
(i)pay the Cost of the Project in the manner hereinafter provided;and(ii)pay other costs of issuance
and expenses relating thereto,all as shall be specified in the Closing Certificate.The Bonds shall be
issued in substantially the form of Exhibit A annexed hereto. The principal of and interest on the
Bonds shall be payable from Ad Valorem Taxes and other monies on deposit from time to time in
the Funds and Accounts,as more fully described herein. The Bonds shall have a first lien on the Ad
Valorem Taxes and other monies,if any, on deposit in the Funds and Accounts.
The City does not expect to issue more than $30,000,000 of tax-exempt obligations in
calendar year 2010,and therefore designates the Bonds as qualified tax-exempt obligations within
the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
SECTION 2.02. DETAILS OF BONDS. The Bonds shall be initially issued as a
single registered bond,registered in the name of the Purchaser.The Bonds will be dated their date of
delivery, shall be in authorized denominations equal to the outstanding principal amount of the
Bonds from time to time,and will bear interest payable semi-annually,through their maturity date or
earlier redemption in whole, on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing October 15,
2010. The Bonds shall mature on October 15,2025 and shall bear interest at the rate of 4.43%per
annum, which rate per annum does not exceed the maximum rate permitted by law, subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 11.02.The interest due on the Bonds shall be computed based on a
360 day year of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months. Principal on the Bonds shall be payable
annually, through their maturity date or earlier redemption in whole, on October 15 of each year,
commencing October 15,2010 in accordance with the 20-year amortization schedule attached to the
Bonds,with a final payment of all outstanding principal on October 15, 2025.Additional details of
the Bonds shall be as set forth in Article XI hereof.
Both the principal of and the interest on the Bonds shall be payable in any coin or currency of
the United States of America, or by check or wire payment in such currency, as, at the respective
times of payment, is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.
Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date with respect to the Bonds shall be
made to the person appearing on the registration books of the City maintained pursuant to Section
2.04 hereof as of the close of business on the Record Date. Such interest shall be payable by check

or draft on a Paying Agent and shall be mailed to each owner as of the Record Date,at his address as
it appears on said registration books, or in the case of an owner of$1,000,000 or more of Bonds,by
wire transfer to a domestic bank account specified by such owner to the Paying Agent as of the
Record Date.
The principal of the Bonds shall be payable to or upon the order of the owner or his duly
authorized attorney or legal representative,as the same falls due,upon the presentation and surrender
of such Bonds at the principal office of the City or the designated corporate trust office of the Paying
Agent,if the City is not then the Paying Agent. The Bonds shall not be held under a book-entry-only
system of registration.
SECTION 2.03. EXECUTION AND AUTHENTICATION. Except as otherwise
permitted or required by the Act,the Bonds shall be signed by the Mayor,or in his absence,the Vice-
Mayor of the City, and countersigned by the City Clerk, or in her absence, a Deputy City Clerk;
provided, however, that if required by law, each Bond shall be manually signed by at least one of
such officers. The official seal of the City or a facsimile thereof shall be imprinted on the Bonds. In
case any officer whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature shall appear on any Bonds shall
cease to be such officer before such Bonds have been authenticated and transferred by the Bond
Registrar or delivered by the City, such signature or such facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and
sufficient for all purposes the same as if he had remained in office until such authentication and
transfer or delivery occurred. In addition,any Bond may bear the facsimile signature of, or may be
signed by,such persons as at the actual time of the execution of the Bond shall be the proper officers
to execute such Bond although at the date of the Bond such persons may not have been such officers.
Only such Bonds as have endorsed thereon a certificate of authentication as set forth in the
form of Bond annexed hereto as Exhibit A,duly executed by the Bond Registrar,shall be entitled to
any benefit or security under this Resolution. No Bonds shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose
unless and until such certificate of authentication on the Bond has been duly executed by the Bond
Registrar, and such certificate of the Bond Registrar upon any such Bond shall be conclusive
evidence that such Bond has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Resolution. The Bond
Registrar's certificate of authentication on any Bond shall be deemed to have been duly executed if

pay the same without surrender thereof. Any Bond surrendered for replacement shall be cancelled in
the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 hereof.
