the issuance of the Notes, said tax shall be, from year to year, carried onto the tax roll of the City
and collected in addition to all other taxes and in the same manner and at the same time as other
taxes of the City for said years are collected, except that the amount of tax carried onto the tax
roll may be reduced in any year by the amount of any surplus money in the Debt Service Fund
Account created below.
(C) Additional Funds. If at any time there shall be on hand insufficient funds
from the aforesaid tax levy to meet principal and/or interest payments on said Notes when due,
the requisite amounts shall be paid from other funds of the City then available, which sums shall
be replaced upon the collection of the taxes herein levied.
Section 6. Segregated Debt Service Fund Account.
(A) Creation and Deposits. There be and there hereby is established in the
treasury of the City, if one has not already been created, a debt service fund, separate and distinct
from every other fund, which shall be maintained in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. Debt service or sinking funds established for obligations previously issued
by the City may be considered as separate and distinct accounts within the debt service fund.
Within the debt service fund, there hereby is established a separate and distinct account
designated as the "Debt Service Fund Account for $7,125,000 General Obligation Promissory
Notes, Series 2016A" (the "Debt Service Fund Account") and such account shall be maintained

QB\\40492053.1
Treasurer shall deposit in the Debt Service Fund Account (i) all accrued interest received by the
City at the time of delivery of and payment for the Notes; (ii) any premium which may be
received by the City above the par value of the Notes and accrued interest thereon; (iii) all
money raised by the taxes herein levied and any amounts appropriated for the specific purpose of
meeting principal of and interest on the Notes when due; (iv) such other sums as may be
necessary at any time to pay principal of and interest on the Notes when due; (v) surplus monies
in the Borrowed Money Fund as specified below; and (vi) such further deposits as may be
required by Section 67.11, Wisconsin Statutes.
(B) Use and Investment. No money shall be withdrawn from the Debt Service
Fund Account and appropriated for any purpose other than the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes until all such principal and interest has been paid in full and the Notes
canceled; provided (i) the funds to provide for each payment of principal of and interest on the
Notes prior to the scheduled receipt of taxes from the next succeeding tax collection may be
invested in direct obligations of the United States of America maturing in time to make such
payments when they are due or in other investments permitted by law; and (ii) any funds over
and above the amount of such principal and interest payments on the Notes may be used to
reduce the next succeeding tax levy, or may, at the option of the City, be invested by purchasing
the Notes as permitted by and subject to Section 67.11(2)(a), Wisconsin Statutes, or in permitted
municipal investments under the pertinent provisions of the Wisconsin Statutes ("Permitted
Investments"), which investments shall continue to be a part of the Debt Service Fund Account.
Any investment of the Debt Service Fund Account shall at all times conform with the provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and any applicable Treasury
Regulations (the "Regulations").
(C) Remaining Monies. When all of the Notes have been paid in full and
canceled, and all Permitted Investments disposed of, any money remaining in the Debt Service
Fund Account shall be transferred and deposited in the general fund of the City, unless the
Common Council directs otherwise.
Section 7. Proceeds of the Notes; Segregated Borrowed Money Fund. The proceeds of the
Notes (the "Note Proceeds") (other than any premium and accrued interest which must be paid at
the time of the delivery of the Notes into the Debt Service Fund Account created above) shall be
deposited into a special fund separate and distinct from all other funds of the City and disbursed
solely for the purposes for which borrowed or for the payment of the principal of and the interest
on the Notes. Monies in the Borrowed Money Fund may be temporarily invested in Permitted
Investments. Any monies, including any income from Permitted Investments, remaining in the
Borrowed Money Fund after the purposes for which the Notes have been issued have been
accomplished, and, at any time, any monies as are not needed and which obviously thereafter
cannot be needed for such purposes shall be deposited in the Debt Service Fund Account.
Section 8. No Arbitrage. All investments made pursuant to this Resolution shall be
Permitted Investments, but no such investment shall be made in such a manner as would cause
the Notes to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code or the
Regulations and an officer of the City, charged with the responsibility for issuing the Notes, shall
certify as to facts, estimates, circumstances and reasonable expectations in existence on the date
-3-
QB\\40492053.1
of delivery of the Notes to the Purchaser which will permit the conclusion that the Notes are not
"arbitrage bonds," within the meaning of the Code or Regulations.
Section 9. Compliance with Federal Tax Laws. (a) The City represents and covenants that
the projects financed by the Notes and the ownership, management and use of the projects will not
cause the Notes to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code. The
City further covenants that it shall comply with the provisions of the Code to the extent necessary
to maintain the tax-exempt status of the interest on the Notes including, if applicable, the rebate
requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code. The City further covenants that it will not take any
action, omit to take any action or permit the taking or omission of any action within its control
(including, without limitation, making or permitting any use of the proceeds of the Notes) if
taking, permitting or omitting to take such action would cause any of the Notes to be an arbitrage
bond or a private activity bond within the meaning of the Code or would otherwise cause interest
on the Notes to be included in the gross income of the recipients thereof for federal income tax
purposes. The City Clerk or other officer of the City charged with the responsibility of issuing the
Notes shall provide an appropriate certificate of the City certifying that the City can and
covenanting that it will comply with the provisions of the Code and Regulations.
(b) The City also covenants to use its best efforts to meet the requirements and
restrictions of any different or additional federal legislation which may be made applicable to the
Notes provided that in meeting such requirements the City will do so only to the extent
consistent with the proceedings authorizing the Notes and the laws of the State of Wisconsin and
to the extent that there is a reasonable period of time in which to comply.
Section 10. Designation as Qualified Tax-Exempt Obligations. The Notes are hereby
designated as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265 of the Code,
relating to the ability of financial institutions to deduct from income for federal income tax
purposes, interest expense that is allocable to carrying and acquiring tax-exempt obligations.
Section 11. Execution of the Notes; Closing; Professional Services. The Notes shall be
issued in printed form, executed on behalf of the City by the manual or facsimile signatures of
the Mayor and City Clerk, authenticated, if required, by the Fiscal Agent (defined below), sealed
with its official or corporate seal, if any, or a facsimile thereof, and delivered to the Purchaser
upon payment to the City of the purchase price thereof, plus accrued interest to the date of
delivery (the "Closing"). The facsimile signature of either of the officers executing the Notes
may be imprinted on the Notes in lieu of the manual signature of the officer but, unless the City
has contracted with a fiscal agent to authenticate the Notes, at least one of the signatures
appearing on each Note shall be a manual signature. In the event that either of the officers
whose signatures appear on the Notes shall cease to be such officers before the Closing, such
signatures shall, nevertheless, be valid and sufficient for all purposes to the same extent as if they
had remained in office until the Closing. The aforesaid officers are hereby authorized and
directed to do all acts and execute and deliver the Notes and all such documents, certificates and
acknowledgements as may be necessary and convenient to effectuate the Closing. The City
hereby authorizes the officers and agents of the City to enter into, on its behalf, agreements and
contracts in conjunction with the Notes, including but not limited to agreements and contracts for
legal, trust, fiscal agency, disclosure and continuing disclosure, and rebate calculation services.

between the City and the Fiscal Agent shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit D and incorporated herein by this reference.
Section 13. Persons Treated as Owners; Transfer of Notes. The City shall cause books

the office of the Fiscal Agent, duly endorsed for the transfer or accompanied by an assignment
duly executed by the registered owner or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Upon such

Official Statement with respect to the Notes and deems the Preliminary Official Statement as
"final" as of its date for purposes of SEC Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Rule"). All

-5-

Preliminary Official Statement and any addenda or Official Statement to be distributed to the

and agrees, for the benefit of the owners of the Notes, to enter into a written undertaking (the
"Undertaking") if required by the Rule to provide continuing disclosure of certain financial
information and operating data and timely notices of the occurrence of certain events in
accordance with the Rule. The Undertaking shall be enforceable by the owners of the Notes or
by the Purchaser on behalf of such owners (provided that the rights of the owners and the
Purchaser to enforce the Undertaking shall be limited to a right to obtain specific performance of
the obligations thereunder and any failure by the City to comply with the provisions of the
Undertaking shall not be an event of default with respect to the Notes).
To the extent required under the Rule, the Mayor and City Clerk, or other officer of the
City charged with the responsibility for issuing the Notes, shall provide a Continuing Disclosure
Certificate for inclusion in the transcript of proceedings, setting forth the details and terms of the

insurance with respect to the Notes, the officers of the City are authorized to take all actions
necessary to obtain such municipal bond insurance. The Mayor and City Clerk are authorized to
agree to such additional provisions as the bond insurer may reasonably request and which are
acceptable to the Mayor and City Clerk including provisions regarding restrictions on investment
of Note proceeds, the payment procedure under the municipal bond insurance policy, the rights
of the bond insurer in the event of default and payment of the Notes by the bond insurer and
notices to be given to the bond insurer. In addition, any reference required by the bond insurer to
the municipal bond insurance policy shall be made in the form of Note provided herein.

Name (the "Depository") identified above (or to registered assigns), on the maturity date identified

Depository in whose name this Note is registered on the Bond Register maintained by Associated
Trust Company, National Association, Green Bay, Wisconsin (the "Fiscal Agent") or any
successor thereto at the close of business on the 15th day of the calendar month next preceding the
semi-annual interest payment date (the "Record Date"). This Note is payable as to principal upon
presentation and surrender hereof at the office of the Fiscal Agent.
For the prompt payment of this Note together with interest hereon as aforesaid and for the
levy of taxes sufficient for that purpose, the full faith, credit and resources of the City are hereby
irrevocably pledged.
This Note is one of an issue of Notes aggregating the principal amount of $7,125,000, all of
which are of like tenor, except as to denomination, issued by the City pursuant to the provisions of
Section 67.12(12), Wisconsin Statutes, for public purposes, including paying the cost of
construction and remodeling of a new City Hall, Police Station and Public Works building, all as
authorized by resolutions of the Common Council duly adopted by said governing body at
meetings held on June 14, 2016 and July 12, 2016. Said resolutions are recorded in the official
minutes of the Common Council for said dates.
QB\\40492053.1
The Notes are subject to redemption prior to maturity, at the option of the City, on
September 1, 2017 or on any date thereafter. Said Notes are redeemable as a whole or in part,
and if in part, by lot (as selected by the Depository), at the principal amount thereof, plus accrued
interest to the date of redemption.
In the event the Notes are redeemed prior to maturity, as long as the Notes are in
book-entry-only form, official notice of the redemption will be given by mailing a notice by
registered or certified mail, overnight express delivery, facsimile transmission, electronic
transmission or in any other manner required by the Depository, to the Depository not less than
thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date. If less than all of the
Notes of a maturity are to be called for redemption, the Notes of such maturity to be redeemed will
be selected by lot. Such notice will include but not be limited to the following: the designation,
date and maturities of the Notes called for redemption, CUSIP numbers, and the date of
redemption. Any notice provided as described herein shall be conclusively presumed to have been
duly given, whether or not the registered owner receives the notice. The Notes shall cease to bear
interest on the specified redemption date provided that federal or other immediately available
funds sufficient for such redemption are on deposit at the office of the Depository at that time.
Upon such deposit of funds for redemption the Notes shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding.
It is hereby certified and recited that all conditions, things and acts required by law to exist or
to be done prior to and in connection with the issuance of this Note have been done, have existed and
have been performed in due form and time; that the aggregate indebtedness of the City, including
this Note and others issued simultaneously herewith, does not exceed any limitation imposed by law
or the Constitution of the State of Wisconsin; and that a direct annual irrepealable tax has been
levied sufficient to pay this Note, together with the interest thereon, when and as payable.
This Note has been designated by the Common Council as a "qualified tax-exempt
obligation" pursuant to the provisions of Section 265(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended.
This Note is transferable only upon the books of the City kept for that purpose at the
office of the Fiscal Agent, only in the event that the Depository does not continue to act as
depository for the Notes, and the City appoints another depository, upon surrender of the Note to
the Fiscal Agent, by the registered owner in person or his duly authorized attorney, together with
a written instrument of transfer (which may be endorsed hereon) satisfactory to the Fiscal Agent
duly executed by the registered owner or his duly authorized attorney. Thereupon a new fully
registered Note in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the new depository in
exchange therefor and upon the payment of a charge sufficient to reimburse the City for any tax,
fee or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such registration. The
Fiscal Agent shall not be obliged to make any transfer of the Notes (i) after the Record Date, (ii)
during the fifteen (15) calendar days preceding the date of any publication of notice of any
proposed redemption of the Notes, or (iii) with respect to any particular Note, after such Note has
been called for redemption. The Fiscal Agent and City may treat and consider the Depository in
whose name this Note is registered as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving
payment of, or on account of, the principal or redemption price hereof and interest due hereon
and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Notes are issuable solely as negotiable, fully-
registered Notes without coupons in the denomination of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof.

transmission or email transmission and shall contain the information required above for an
official notice of redemption.

shall no longer be responsible for the same.
(b) Resignation and Removal; Successor Fiscal Agent. (i) Fiscal Agent may at any
time resign by giving not less than 60 days written notice to Municipality. Upon receiving such

have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 days after such notice of
resignation, the resigning fiscal agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor fiscal agent. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as
it may deem proper and prescribes, appoint a successor fiscal agent. The resignation of the fiscal
agent shall take effect only upon appointment of a successor fiscal agent and such successor
fiscal agent's acceptance of such appointment.
(ii) The Fiscal Agent may also be removed by the Municipality at any time upon
not less than 60 days' written notice. Such removal shall take effect upon the appointment of a
successor fiscal agent and such successor fiscal agent's acceptance of such appointment.

hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor fiscal agent shall become
effective and such successor fiscal agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its predecessor, with
like effect as if originally named as fiscal agent herein; but nevertheless, on written request of
Municipality, or on the request of the successor, the fiscal agent ceasing to act shall execute and
deliver an instrument transferring to such successor fiscal agent, all the rights, powers, and trusts
of the fiscal agent so ceasing to act. Upon the request of any such successor fiscal agent,
Municipality shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting
in and confirming to such successor fiscal agent all such rights, powers and duties. Any
predecessor fiscal agent shall pay over to its successor fiscal agent any funds of the Municipality.
(iv) Any corporation, association or agency into which the Fiscal Agent may be
converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its
corporate trust business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or
association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which it
is a party, ipso facto, shall be and become successor fiscal agent under this Agreement and
vested with all the trusts, powers, discretions, immunities and privileges and all other matters as
was its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or
conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
(v) Any successor fiscal agent shall be qualified pursuant to Sec. 67.10(2),
Wisconsin Statutes, as amended.
(c) Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the payment in
full of all of the principal and interest on the Obligations to the registered owners of the
Obligations or (ii) five years after (aa) the last principal payment on the Obligations is due

payment of the Obligations are fully discharged, whichever is later. The parties realize that any
funds hereunder as shall remain upon termination shall, except as may otherwise by law, be
turned over to the Municipality after deduction of any unpaid fees and disbursements of Fiscal
Agent or, if required by law, to such officer, board or body as may then be entitled by law to
receive the same. Termination of this Agreement shall not, of itself, have any effect on
Municipality's obligation to pay the outstanding Obligations in full in accordance with the terms
thereof.
