Notwithstanding satisfaction of the other conditions to the execution of any Contract or the issuance of Bonds set forth in this section, no such execution or issuance may occur if an Event of Default (or any event which, once all notice or grace periods have passed, would constitute an Event of Default) exists, unless such Event of Default shall be cured upon such execution or issuance.

Nothing herein shall restrict the ability of the District to sell any portion of the Water System if such portion is immediately repurchased by the District and if such arrangement cannot by its terms result in the purchaser of such portion of the Water System exercising any remedy which would deprive the District of or otherwise interfere with its right to own and operate such portion of the Water System.

The District and the Corporation will not take or omit to take any action or make any use of the proceeds of the 2022A Certificates or of any other moneys or property which would cause the 2022A Certificates to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code. (b) Arbitrage.

Section 6.6. Maintenance and Operation of the Water System. The District will maintain and preserve the Water System in good repair and working order at all times, operate the Water System in an efficient and economical manner and pay all Operation and Maintenance Costs as they become due and payable. Section 6.7. Payment of Claims.

Section 6.9. Insurance. (a) The District will procure and maintain or cause to be procured and maintained insurance on the Water System with responsible insurers in such amounts and against such risks (including damage to or destruction of the Water System) as are usually covered in connection with water systems similar to the Water System so long as such insurance is available from reputable insurance companies on commercially reasonable terms. In the event of any damage to or destruction of the Water System caused by the perils covered by such insurance, the Net Proceeds thereof shall be applied to the reconstruction, repair or replacement of the damaged or destroyed portion of the Water System. The District shall begin such reconstruction, repair or replacement promptly after such damage or destruction shall occur, and shall continue and properly complete such reconstruction, repair or replacement as expeditiously as possible, and shall pay out of such Net Proceeds all costs and expenses in connection with such reconstruction, repair or replacement so that the same shall be completed and the Water System shall be free and clear of all claims and liens. If such Net Proceeds exceed the costs of such reconstruction, repair or replacement portion of the Water System and/or the cost of the construction of additions, betterments, extensions or improvements to the Water System, then the excess Net Proceeds may, at the option of the District, be applied in part to the prepayment of Series 2022 Installment Payments as provided in Article VII and in part to such other fund or account as may be appropriate and used for the retirement of Bonds and Contracts in the same proportion which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Series 2022 Installment Payments then bears to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Bonds and Contracts. If such Net Proceeds are sufficient to enable the District to retire the entire obligation evidenced hereby prior to the final due date of the principal and interest on the Series 2022 Installment Payments as well as the entire obligations evidenced by Bonds and Contracts then remaining unpaid prior to their final respective due dates, the District may elect not to reconstruct, repair or replace the damaged or destroyed portion of the Water System and/or not to construct other additions, betterments, extensions or improvements to the Water System; and thereupon such Net Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of principal and interest on the Series 2022 Installment Payments as provided in Article VII and to the retirement of such Bonds and Contracts. (b) The District will procure and maintain such other insurance as it shall deem advisable or necessary to protect its interests, which insurance shall afford protection in such amounts and against such risks as are usually covered in connection with water systems similar to the Water System.

The Trustee shall have no duties to inspect such records. Section 6.11. Protection of Security and Rights of the Corporation. The District will preserve and protect the security hereof and the rights of the Corporation to the Series 2022 Installment Payments hereunder and will warrant and defend such rights against all claims and demands of all persons. Section 6.12. Payment of Taxes and Compliance with Governmental Regulations. The District will pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges which may hereafter be lawfully imposed upon the Water System, or any part thereof or upon the Revenues when the same shall become due. The District will duly observe and conform with all valid regulations and requirements of any governmental authority relative to the operation of the Water System, or any part thereof, but the District shall not be required to comply with any regulations or requirements so long as the validity or application thereof shall be contested in good faith. Section 6.13. Amount of Rates and Charges. (a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the District shall fix and prescribe, at the commencement of each Fiscal Year, rates and charges for the Water Service provided by the Water System which are reasonably expected to be at least sufficient to yield during each Fiscal Year Net Revenues equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of Debt Service payable in such Fiscal Year; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section, Revenues in such Fiscal Year shall not include any amount transferred from the Rate Stabilization Fund to the Revenue Fund in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of Debt Service payable in such Fiscal Year. (b) The District may make adjustments from time to time in such rates and charges and may make such classification thereof as it deems necessary, but shall not reduce the rates and charges then in effect unless the Net Revenues, from such reduced rates and charges are reasonably expected to be sufficient to meet the requirements of this section. (c) So long as the District has complied with its obligations set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above, the failure of Net Revenues to equal one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of Debt Service at the end of a Fiscal Year shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default hereunder. Section 6.14. Collection of Rates and Charges. The District will have in effect at all times by-laws, rules and regulations requiring each customer of the Water System to pay the rates and charges applicable to the Water Service and providing for the billing thereof and for a due date and a delinquency date for each bill.

(b) If the foregoing conditions are not met, then such Net Proceeds shall be applied by the District in part to the prepayment of the Series 2022 Installment Payments as provided in Article VII and in part to such other fund or account as may be appropriate and used for the retirement of Bonds and Contracts in the same proportion which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of principal and Interest due on the Series 2022 Installment Payments then bears to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Bonds and Contracts.

If all or any part of the Water System shall be taken by eminent domain proceedings, the Net Proceeds thereof will be applied as follows: (a) I£ (1) the District files with the Trustee a certificate showing: (i) the estimated loss of annual Net Revenues, if any, suffered or to be suffered by the District by reason of such eminent domain proceedings; (ii) a general description of the additions, betterments, extensions or improvements to the Water System proposed to be acquired and constructed by the District from such Net Proceeds; and (iii) an estimate of the additional annual Net Revenues to be derived from such additions, betterments, extensions or improvements, and (2) the District, on the basis of such certificate filed with the Trustee, determines that the estimated additional annual Net Revenues will sufficiently offset the estimated loss of annual Net Revenues resulting from such eminent domain proceedings so that the ability of the District to meet its obligations hereunder will not be substantially impaired (which determination shall be final and conclusive), then the District shall promptly proceed with the acquisition and construction of such additions, betterments, extensions or improvements substantially in accordance with such certificate and such Net Proceeds shall be applied for the payment of the costs of such acquisition and construction, and any balance of such Net Proceeds not required by the District for such purpose shall be deposited in the Water System Revenue Fund as directed by the District. (b) If the foregoing conditions are not met, then such Net Proceeds shall be applied by the District in part to the prepayment of the 2022A Certificates as provided in Article IV and in part to such other fund or account as may be appropriate and used for the retirement of Bonds and Contracts in the same proportion which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of principal and Interest due on the 2022A Certificates then bears to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Bonds and Contracts. 19 4883-6232-4503/022925-0110 Section 6.17. Further Assurances. The District will adopt, deliver, execute and make any and all further assurances, instruments and resolutions as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out the intention or to facilitate the performance hereof and for the better assuring and confirming unto the Corporation of the rights and benefits provided to it herein.
