Commissioner Mathews presented the following resolution
and moved that it be adopted:
WHEREAS, the bond order hereinafter described has taken
effect, and it is desirable to make provision for the issuance of
bonds authorized by said bond order; NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of the
County of New Hanover, North Carolina (the "Issuer"), as follows:
1. Pursuant to and in accordance with the airport bond
order adopted by the Board of Commissioners on October 5, 1987,
the Issuer shall issue its bonds of the aggregate principal
amount of $1,800,000 (the "Bonds"). The Bonds shall be desig-
nated "Airport Bonds." The period of usefulness of the capital
project to be financed by the issuance of the Bonds is a period
of forty years, computed from July 1, 1989.
2. The Bonds shall be dated July 1, 1989 and shall
bear interest from their date at a rate or rates which shall be
hereafter determined upon the public sale thereof and such inter-
est shall be payable on December 1, 1989 and semi-annually there-
after on June 1 and December 1. The Bonds shall mature, subject
to the right of prior redemption as hereinafter set forth, annu-
ally on June 1, as follows:
Principal Principal
Year Amount Year Amount
1991 $ 50,000 2001 $ 90,000
1992 50,000 2002 100,000
1993 50,000 2003 110,000

1999 80,000 2009 140,000
2000 90,000
3. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form
by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of
bond certificates made to the public. One bond certificate for
each maturity will be issued to The Depository Trust Company, New
York, New York ("DTC"), and immobilized in its custody. The book
entry system will evidence ownership of the Bonds in the prin-
cipal amounts of $5,000 or whole multiples thereof, with trans-
fers of beneficial ownership effected on the records of DTC and
its participants pursuant to rules and procedures established by
DTC. Interest on the Bonds will be payable at the times stated
in the preceding paragraph, and principal of the Bonds will be
paid annually on June 1, as set forth in the foregoing maturity
schedule, in clearinghouse funds to DTC or its nominee as regis-
-2-
tered owner of the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest
payments to participants of DTC will be the responsibility of
DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial
owners by participants of DTC will be the responsibility of such
participants and other nominees of beneficial owners. Debt
service will be payable to owners of Bonds shown on the records
of DTC at the close of business on the day preceding a debt
service payment date. The Issuer will not be responsible or
liable for maintaining, supervising or reviewing the records
maintained by DTC, its participants or persons acting through
such participants.
In the event that (a) DTC determines not to continue to
act as securities depository for the Bonds, or (b) the Issuer
determines that continuation of the book entry system of evidence
and transfer of ownership of the Bonds would adversely affect the
interests of the beneficial owners of the Bonds, the Issuer will
discontinue the book entry system with DTC. If the Issuer fails
to identify another qualified securities depository to replace
DTC, the Issuer will authenticate and deliver replacement Bonds
in the form of fully registered certificates.
Each Bond shall bear interest from the interest payment
date next preceding the date on which it is authenticated unless
it is (a) authenticated upon an interest payment date in which
event it shall bear interest from such interest payment date, or
(b) authenticated prior to the first interest payment date in
which event it shall bear interest from its date; provided,
however, that if at the time of authentication interest is in
default, such Bond shall bear interest from the date to which
interest has been paid.
The principal of and the interest and any redemption
premium on the Bonds shall be payable in any coin or currency of
the United states of America which is legal tender for the
payment of public and private debts on the respective dates of
payment thereof.
4. The Bonds shall bear the manual or facsimile signa-
tures of the Chairman and the Clerk of the Board of Commissioners
of the Issuer and the official seal or a facsimile of the offi-
cial seal of the Issuer shall be impressed or imprinted, as the
case may be, on the Bonds.
The certificate of the Local Government Commission of
North Carolina to be endorsed on all Bonds shall bear the manual
or facsimile signature of the Secretary of said Commission or of
a representative designated by said Secretary and the certificate
of authentication of the Bond Registrar to be endorsed on all
Bonds shall be executed as provided hereinafter.
-3-
In case any officer of the Issuer or the Local
Government Commission of North Carolina whose manual or facsimile
signature shall appear on any Bonds shall cease to be such
officer before the delivery of such Bonds, such manual or fac-
simile signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for
all purposes the same' as if he had remained in office until such
delivery, and any Bond may bear the manual or facsimile signa-
tures of such persons as at the actual time of the execution of
such ,Bond shall be the proper officers to sign such Bond although
at the date of such Bond such persons may not have been such
officers.
No Bond shall be valid or become obligatory for any
purpose or be entitled to any benefit or security under this
resolution until it shall have been authenticated by the execu-
tion by the Bond Registrar of the certificate of authentication
endorsed thereon.

principal amount of each Bond to be redeemed for each calendar
year or part thereof between the redemption date and the maturity

principal amount of $5,000 or some multiple thereof and that, in
selecting Bonds for redemption, the Bond Registrar shall treat
each Bond as representing that number of Bonds which is obtained
by dividing the principal amount of such Bonds by $5,000. For so
long as a book-entry system is used for determining beneficial
ownership of the Bonds, if less than all of the Bonds within a
maturity are to be redeemed, DTC and its participants shall de-
termine by lot which of the Bonds within a maturity are to be
redeemed. If less than all of the Bonds of different maturities
are called for redemption, the Bonds to be redeemed shall be
called in the inverse order of their maturities.
Not more than sixty (60) days nor less than thirty (30)
days before the redemption date of any Bonds to be redeemed,
whether such redemption be in whole or in part, the Issuer shall
cause a notice of such redemption to be mailed, postage prepaid,
to DTC or its nominee. Each such notice shall identify the Bonds
or portions thereof to be redeemed by reference to their numbers
and shall set forth the date designated for redemption, the re-
demption price to be paid and the maturities of the Bonds to be
redeemed. If any Bond is to be redeemed in part only, the notice
of redemption shall state also that on or after the redemption
date, upon surrender of such Bond, a new Bond or Bonds in princi-
pal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Bond will be
issued.
On or before the date fixed for redemption, moneys shall
be deposited with the Bond Registrar to pay the principal of and
the redemption premium, if any, on the Bonds or portions thereof
called for redemption as well as the interest accruing thereon to
the redemption date thereof.
On the date fixed for redemption, notice having been
given in the manner and under the conditions hereinabove provided,
the Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall be due
and payable at the redemption price provided therefor, plus
accrued interest to such date. If moneys sufficient to pay the
-11-
redemption price of the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed,
plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption,

'of Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption, such Bonds or
portions thereof shall cease to be entitled to any benefits or

no rights in respect thereof except to receive payment of the
redemption price thereof, plus accrued interest to the date of
redemption.

tive shall present and surrender such Bond to the Bond Registrar
for payment of the principal amount thereof so called for redemp-
tion and the redemption premium, if any, on such principal amount,
and the Bond Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to or upon
the order of such registered owner or his legal representative,
without charge therefor, for the unredeemed portion of the prin-
cipal amount of the Bond so surrendered, a Bond or Bonds of the
same maturity, of any denomination or denominations authorized by
this resolution and bearing interest at the same rate.

Bond Registrar together with an assignment duly executed by the
registered owner or his attorney or legal representative in such
form as shall be satisfactory to the Bond Registrar, may, at the
option of the registered owner thereof, be exchanged for an equal
aggregate principal amount of Bonds of the same maturity, of any
denomination or denominations authorized by this resolution and
bearing interest at the same rate.
The transfer of any Bond may be registered only upon the
registration books of the Issuer upon the surrender thereof to the
Bond Registrar together with an assignment duly executed by the
registered owner or his attorney or legal representative in such
form as shall be satisfactory to the Bond Registrar. Upon any
such registration of transfer, the Bond Registrar shall authenti-
cate and deliver in exchange for such Bond a new Bond or Bonds,
registered in the name of the transferee, of any denomination or
denominations authorized by this resolution, in an aggregate prin-
cipal amount equal to the unredeemed principal amount of such Bond
so surrendered, of the same maturity and bearing interest at the
same rate.
In all cases in which Bonds shall be exchanged or the
transfer of Bonds shall be registered hereunder, the Bond Regis-
trar shall authenticate and deliver at the earliest practicable
time Bonds in accordance with the provisions of this resolution.
All Bonds surrendered in any such exchange or registration of
transfer shall forthwith be cancelled by the Bond Registrar. The
-12-
Issuer or the Bond Registrar may make a charge for shipping and
out-of-pocket costs for every such exchange or registration of
transfer of Bonds sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or other
governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such ex-
change or registration of transfer, but no other charge shall be
made for exchanging or registering the transfer of Bonds under
this resolution. The Bond Registrar shall not be required to ex-
change or register the transfer of any Bond during a period begin-
ning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day
of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Bonds or any portion
thereof and ending at the close of business on the day of such

thereof for all purposes, and payment of or on account of the
principal or redemption price of any such Bond and the interest on
any such Bond shall be made only to or upon the order of the reg-
istered owner thereof or his legal representative. All such pay-
ments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the
liability upon such Bond, including the redemption premium, if
any, and interest thereon, to the extent of the sum or sums so
paid.
The Issuer shall appoint such registrars, transfer
agents, depositaries or other agents and make such other arrange-
ments as may be necessary for the registration, registration of
transfer and exchange of Bonds within a reasonable time according
to then commercial standards and for the timely payment of prin-
cipal, interest and any redemption premium with respect to the
Bonds. The County Director of Finance is hereby appointed the
registrar, transfer agent and paying agent for the Bonds (collec-
tively, the "Bond Registrar"), subject to the right of the govern-
ing body of the Issuer to appoint another Bond Registrar, and as
such shall keep at his office at 320 Chestnut street, Wilmington,
North Carolina 28401, the books of the Issuer for the registra-
tion, registration of transfer, exchange and payment of the Bonds
as provided in this resolution.
8. The Local Government Commission of North Carolina is
hereby requested to sell the Bonds and to state in the Notice of
Sale of the Bonds that bidders may name one rate of interest for
part of the Bonds and another rate or rates for the balance of the
Bonds. The Bonds shall bear interest at such rate or rates as may
be named in the proposal to purchase said Bonds which shall be ac-
cepted by said Local Government Commission.
9. The Chairman and the Clerk of the Board of Commis-
sioners and the Director of Finance of the Issuer are hereby
authorized and directed to cause the Bonds to be prepared and,
-13-

mission, to execute the Bonds and have the Bonds endorsed and au-
thenticated as provided herein and to deliver the Bonds to the
purchaser or purchasers to whom they may be sold by said Local
Government Commission.
10. The Official statement dated June 9, 1989 setting
forth financial and statistical data in connection with the
offering of the Bonds, which was circulated with the Notice of
Sale thereof, is hereby approved. In connection with this ap-
proval, the Board of Commissioners of the Issuer has examined
copies of the Official statement and has, to the extent and in the
manner it has deemed necessary, discussed the contents thereof
with officers of the administration of the Issuer. The Board of
Commissioners of the Issuer does hereby recite that, upon its
examination and discussions, nothing has come to its attention
which would lead it to believe that said Official Statement
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state
any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not mis-
leading.
11. The Issuer covenants to comply with the provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), as
enacted into law to the extent required to preserve the exclusion
from gross income of interest on the Bonds for Federal income tax
purposes.

the meaning of Section 142(a) of the Code.
13. The Chairman and the Clerk of the Board of Commis-
sioners, the County Manager and the Director of Finance and the
other officers of the Issuer are hereby authorized and directed to
execute and deliver for and on behalf of the Issuer any and all
financing statements, certificates, documents or other papers and

resolution and moved that it be adopted:
the
following
WHEREAS, the bond order hereinafter described has taken
effect, and it is desirable to make provision for the issuance of
bonds authorized by said bond order; NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of the
County of New Hanover, North Carolina (the "Issuer"), as follows:
1. Pursuant to and in accordance with the solid waste
disposal bond order adopted by the Board of Commissioners on
August 1, 1988, the Issuer shall issue its bonds of the aggregate
principal amount of $23,000,000 (the "Bonds"). The Bonds shall
be designated "Solid Waste Disposal Bonds, Series 1989." The pe-
riod of usefulness of the capital project to be financed by the
issuance of the Bonds is a period of forty years, computed from
July 1, 1989.
2. The Bonds shall be dated July 1, 1989 and shall
bear interest from their date at a rate or rates which shall be
hereafter determined upon the public sale thereof and such inter-
est shall be payable on December 1, 1989 and semi-annually there-
after on June 1 and December 1. The Bonds shall mature, subject
to the right of prior redemption as hereinafter set forth, annu-
ally on June 1, as follows:
Principal Principal
Year Amount Year Amount
1992 $ 710,000 2001 $1,350,000
1993 760,000 2002 1,450,000
1994 820,000 2003 1,560,000
1995 880,000 2004 1,680,000
1996 940,000 2005 1,810,000
1997 1,010,000 2006 1,940,000
1998 1,090,000 2007 2,090,000
1999 1,170,000 2008 2,240,000
2000 1,260,000 2009 240,000
3. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form
by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of
bond certificates made to the public. One bond certificate for
each maturity will be issued to The Depository Trust Company, New
York, New York ("DTC"), and immobilized in its custody. The book
entry system will evidence ownership of the Bonds in the prin-
cipal amounts of $5,000 or whole multiples thereof, with trans-
fers of beneficial ownership effected on the records of DTC and
its participants pursuant to rules and procedures established by
DTC. Interest on the Bonds will be payable at the times stated
in the preceding paragraph, and principal of the Bonds will be
paid annually on June 1, as set forth in the foregoing maturity
-2-
schedule, in clearinghouse funds to DTC or its nominee as regis-
tered owner of the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest
payments to participants of DTC will be the responsibility of
DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial
owners by participants of DTC will be the responsibility of such
participants and other nominees of beneficial owners. Debt
service will be payable to owners of Bonds shown on the records
of DTC at the close of business on the day preceding a debt
service payment date. The Issuer will not be responsible or
liable for maintaining, supervising or reviewing the records
maintained by DTC, its participants or persons acting through
such participants.
In the event that (a) DTC determines not to continue to
act as securities depository for the Bonds, or (b) the Issuer
determines that continuation of the book entry system of evidence
and transfer of ownership of the Bonds would adversely affect the
interests of the beneficial owners of the Bonds, the Issuer will
discontinue the book entry system with DTC. If the Issuer fails
to identify another qualified securities depository to replace
DTC, the Issuer will authenticate and deliver replacement Bonds
in the form of fully registered certificates.
Each Bond shall bear interest from the interest payment
date next preceding the date on which it is authenticated unless
it is (a) authenticated upon an interest payment date in which
event it shall bear interest from such interest payment date, or
(b) authenticated prior to the first interest payment date in
which event it shall bear interest from its date; provided,
however, that if at the time of authentication interest is in
default, such Bond shall bear interest from the date to which
interest has been paid.
The principal of and the interest and any redemption
premium on the Bonds shall be payable in any coin or currency of
the United states of America whieh is legal tender for the
payment of public and private debts on the respective dates of
payment thereof.
4. The Bonds shall bear the manual or facsimile signa-
tures of the Chairman and the Clerk of the Board of Commissioners
of the Issuer and the official seal or a facsimile of the offi-
cial seal of the Issuer shall be impressed or imprinted, as the
case may be, on the Bonds.
The certificate of the Local Government Commission of
North Carolina to be endorsed on all Bonds shall bear the manual
or facsimile signature of the Secretary of said Commission or of
a representative designated by said Secretary and the certificate
of authentication of the Bond Registrar to be endorsed on all
Bonds shall be executed as provided hereinafter.
-3-
In case any officer of the Issuer or the Local
Government Commission of North Carolina whose manual or facsimile
signature shall appear on any Bonds shall cease to be such
officer before the delivery of such Bonds, such manual or fac-
simile signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for
all purposes the same as if he had remained in office until such
delivery, and any Bond may bear the manual or facsimile signa-
tures of such persons as at the actual time of the execution of
such Bond shall be the proper officers to sign such Bond although
at the date of such Bond such persons may not have been such
officers.
No Bond shall be valid or become obligatory for any
purpose or be entitled to any benefit or security under this
resolution until it shall have been authenticated by the execu-
tion by the Bond Registrar of the certificate of authentication
endorsed thereon.
5. The Bonds and the endorsements thereon shall be in
substantially the following form:

registered owner at its address as it appears on the bond regis-
tration books of the County, interest on such principal sum from
the date of this bond or from the June 1 or December 1 next

been paid, unless such date of authentication is a June 1 or
December 1 to which interest shall have been paid, in which case
from such date, such interest to the maturity hereof being

person in whose name this bond is registered at the close of
business on the record date for such interest, which shall be the
day (whether or not a business day) next preceding such interest
paYment date. Both the principal of and the interest on this
bond shall be paid in any coin or currency of the United States
of America that is legal tender for the payment of public and
private debts on the respective dates of payment thereof.
This bond is issued in accordance with the Registered
Public Obligations Act, Chapter 159E of the General Statutes of
North Carolina, and pursuant to The Local Government Finance Act
-5-
of the state of North Carolina, as amended, a bond order adopted
by the Board of Commissioners of the County on August 1, 1988
(the "Bond Order") and a resolution adopted by said Board (the
"Resolution") to pay capital costs of improving the County's
solid waste disposal facilities. The issuance of this bond and
the contracting of the indebtedness evidenced thereby have been
approved by a majority of the qualified voters of the County
voting at an election held in the County on November 8, 1988.
The bonds maturing on and after June 1, 2000 shall be
subject to redemption prior to their stated maturities at the
option of the County on or after June 1, 1999, in whole at any
time or in part on any interest payment date, at a redemption
price equal to the principal amount of each bond to be redeemed
together with accrued interest thereon to the redemption date
plus a redemption premium of one-half of one percent (1/2 of 1%)
of the principal amount of each bond to be redeemed for each
calendar year or part thereof between the redemption date and the
maturity date of each bond to be redeemed, provided that such
premium shall not exceed two percent (2%) of such principal
amount. If less than all of the bonds of different maturit~es
are called for redemption, the bonds to be redeemed shall be
called in the inverse order of their maturities. If less than
all of the bonds of any maturity are called for redemption, the
bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by lot; provided, however,
that the portion of any bond to be redeemed shall be in the
principal amount of $5,000 or some multiple thereof and that, in
selecting bonds for redemption, the Bond Registrar shall treat
each bond as representing that number of bonds which is obtained
by dividing the principal amount of such bond by $5,000.
Not more than sixty (60) days nor less than thirty (30)
days before the redemption date of any bonds to be redeemed,
whether such redemption be in whole or in part, the County shall
cause a notice of such redemption to be mailed, postage prepaid,
to The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") or its nominee. On the
date fixed for redemption, notice having been given as aforesaid,
the bonds or portions thereof so called for redemption shall be
due and payable at the redemption price provided for the redemp-
tion of such bonds or portions thereof on such date and, if
moneys for paYment of such redemption price and the accrued
interest are held by the Bond Registrar as provided in the
Resolution, interest on the bonds or the portions thereof so
called for redemption shall cease to accrue. If a portion of
this bond shall be called for redemption, a new bond or bonds in
principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion hereof will be
issued to DTC or its nominee upon the surrender hereof.
The bonds will be issued in fully registered form by
means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of
bond certificates made to the public. One bond certificate for
-6-
each maturity will be issued to DTC and immobilized in its
custody. The book entry system will evidence ownership of the
bonds in principal amounts of $5,000 or whole multiples thereof,
with transfers of beneficial ownership effected on the records of
DTC and its participants pursuant to rules and procedures es-
tablished by DTC. Transfer of principal and interest payments to
participants of DTC will be the responsibility of DTC; transfer
of principal and interest payments to beneficial owners by par-
ticipants of DTC will be the responsibility of such participants
and other nominees of beneficial owners. Debt service will be
payable to owners of bonds shown on the records of DTC at the
close or business on the day preceding a debt service payment
date. The County will not be responsible or liable for main-
taining, supervising or reviewing the records maintained by DTC,
its participants or persons acting through such participants.
The Bond Registrar shall keep at its office the books
of the County for the registration of transfer of bonds. The
transfer of this bond may be registered only upon such books and
as otherwise provided in the Resolution upon the surrender hereof
to the Bond Registrar together with an assignment duly executed
by the registered owner hereof or his attorney or legal represen-
tative in such form as shall be satisfactory to the Bond Registr-
ar. Upon any such registration of transfer, the Bond Registrar
shall deliver in exchange for this bond a new bond or bonds,
registered in the name of the transferee, of authorized denomina-
tions, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed
principal amount of this bond, of the same maturity and bearing
interest at the same rate.
The Bond Registrar shall not be required to exchange or
register the transfer of any bond during a period beginning at
the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of the
mailing of a notice of redemption of bonds or any portion thereof
and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or
of any bond called for redemption in whole or in part pursuant to
the Resolution.
It is hereby certified and recited that all conditions,
acts and things required by the Constitution or statutes of the
state of North Carolina to exist, be performed or happen prece-
dent to or in the issuance of this bond, exist, have been per-
formed and have happened, and that the amount of this bond,
together with all other indebtedness of the County, is within
every debt and other limit prescribed by said Constitution or
statutes. The faith and credit of the County are hereby pledged
to the punctual payment of the principal of and interest on this
bond in accordance with its terms.

any purpose or be entitled to any benefit or security under the
-7-
Bond Order or the Resolution until this bond shall have been
endorsed by the authorized representative of the Local Government
Commission of North Carolina and authenticated by the execution
by the Bond Registrar of the certificate of authentication

6. The Bonds maturing on and after June 1, 2000 shall
be subject to redemption prior to their stated maturities at the
option of the Issuer on or after June 1, 1999, in whole at any
time or in part on any interest payment date, at a redemption
price equal to the principal amount of each Bond to be redeemed
together with accrued interest thereon to the redemption date p1u~
a redemption premium of one-half of one percent (1/2 of 1%) of the
principal amount of each Bond to be redeemed for each calendar
year or part thereof between the redemption date and the maturity
date of each Bond to be redeemed, provided that such premium shall
not exceed two percent (2%) of such principal amount. If less
than all of the Bonds of any maturity are called for redemption,
the Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by lot; provided, how-
ever, that the portion of any Bond to be redeemed shall be in the
principal amount of $5,000 or some multiple thereof and that, in
selecting Bonds for redemption, the Bond Registrar shall treat
each Bond as representing that number of Bonds which is obtained
by dividing the principal amount of such Bonds by $5,000. For so
long as a book-entry system is used for determining beneficial
ownership of the Bonds, if less than all of the Bonds within a
maturity are to be redeemed, DTC and its participants shall de-
termine by lot which of the Bonds within a maturity are to be
redeemed. If less than all of the Bonds of different maturities
are called for redemption, the Bonds to be redeemed shall be
called in the inverse order of their maturities.
Not more than sixty (60) days nor less than thirty (30)
days before the redemption date of any Bonds to be redeemed,
whether such redemption be in whole or in part, the Issuer shall
cause a notice of such redemption to be mailed, postage prepaid,
to DTC or its nominee. Each such notice shall identify the Bonds
or portions thereof to be redeemed by reference to their numbers
and shall set forth the date designated for redemption, the re-
demption price to be paid and the maturities of the Bonds to be
redeemed. If any Bond is to be redeemed in part only, the notice
of redemption shall state also that on or after the redemption
date, upon surrender of such Bond, a new Bond or Bonds in princi-
pal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Bond will be
issued.
On or before the date fixed for redemption, moneys shall
be deposited with the Bond Registrar to pay the principal of and
the redemption premium, if any, on the Bonds or portions thereof
called for redemption as well as the interest accruing thereon to
the redemption date thereof.
On the date fixed for redemption, notice having been
given in the manner and under the conditions hereinabove provided,
the Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall be due
and payable at the redemption price provided therefor, plus
accrued interest to such date. If moneys sufficient to pay the
-11-
redemption price of the Bonds or port~ons thereof to be redeemed,
plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption,
are held by the Bond Registrar in trust for the registered owners
of Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption, such Bonds or
portions thereof shall cease to be entitled to any benefits or
security under this resolution or to be deemed outstanding, and
the registered owners of such Bonds or portions thereof shall have
no rights in respect thereof except to receive payment of the
redemption price thereof, plus accrued interest to the date of
redemption.
If a portion of a Bond shall be selected for redemption,
the registered owner thereof or his attorney or legal representa-
tive shall present and surrender such Bond to the Bond Registrar
for payment of the principal amount thereof so called for redemp-
tion and the redemption premium, if any, on such principal amount,
and the Bond Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to or upon
the order of such registered owner or his legal representative,
without charge therefor, for the unredeemed portion of the prin-
cipal amount of the Bond so surrendered, a Bond or Bonds of the
same maturity, of any denomination or denominations authorized by
this resolution and bearing interest at the same rate.
7. Bonds, upon surrender thereof at the office of the
Bond Registrar together with an assignment duly executed by the
registered owner or his attorney or legal representative in such
form as shall be satisfactory to the Bond Registrar, may, at the
option of the registered owner thereof, be exchanged for an equal
aggregate principal amount of Bonds of the same maturity, of any
denomination or denominations authorized by this resolution and
bearing interest at the same rate.
The transfer of any Bond may be registered only upon the
registration books of the Issuer upon the surrender thereof to the
Bond Registrar together with an assignment duly executed by the
registered owner or his attorney or legal representative in such
form as shall be satisfactory to the Bond Registrar. Upon any
such registration of transfer, the Bond Registrar shall authenti-
cate and deliver in exchange for such Bond a new Bond or Bonds,
registered in the name of the transferee, of any denomination or
denominations authorized by this resolution, in an aggregate prin-
cipal amount equal to the unredeemed principal amount of such Bond
so surrendered, of the same maturity and bearing interest at the
same rate.
In all cases in which Bonds shall be exchanged or the
transfer of Bonds shall be registered hereunder, the Bond Regis-
trar shall authenticate and deliver at the earliest practicable
time Bonds in accordance with the provisions of this resolution.
All Bonds surrendered in any such exchange or registration of
transfer shall forthwith be cancelled by the Bond Registrar. The
-12-
Issuer or the Bond Registrar may make a charge for shipping and
out-of-pocket costs for every such exchange or registration of
transfer of Bonds sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or other
governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such ex-
change or registration of transfer, but no other charge shall be
made for exchanging or registering the transfer of Bonds under
this resolution. The Bond Registrar shall not be required to ex-
change or register the transfer of any Bond during a period begin-
ning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day
of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Bonds or any portion
thereof and ending at the close of business on the day of such
mailing or of any Bond called for redemption in whole or in part
pursuant to this Section 7.
As to any Bond, the person in whose name the same shall
be registered shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner
thereof for all purposes, and payment of or on account of the
principal or redemption price of any such Bond and the interest on
any such Bond shall be made only to or upon the order of the reg-
istered owner thereof or his legal representative. All such pay-
ments shall be vaiid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the
liability upon such Bond, including the redemption premium, if
any, and interest thereon, to the extent of the sum or sums so
paid.
The Issuer shall appoint such registrars, transfer
agents, depositaries or other agents and make such other arrange-
ments as may be necessary for the registration, registration of
transfer and exchange of Bonds within a reasonable time according
to then commercial standards and for the timely payment of prin-
cipal, interest and any redemption premium with respect to the
Bonds. The County Director of Finance is hereby appointed the
registrar, transfer agent and paying agent for the Bonds (collec-
tively, the "Bond Registrar"), subject to the right of the gov-
erning body of the Issuer to appoint another Bond Registrar, and
as such shall keep at his office at 320 Chestnut street,
Wilmington, North Carolina 28401, the books of the Issuer for the
registration, registration of transfer, exchange and payment of
the Bonds as provided in this resolution.
8. The Local Government Commission of North Carolina is
hereby requested to sell the Bonds and to state in the Notice of
Sale of the Bonds that bidders may name one rate of interest for
part of the Bonds and another rate or rates for the balance of the
Bonds. The Bonds shall bear interest at such rate or rates as may
be named in the proposal to purchase said Bonds which shall be ac-
cepted by said Local Government Commission.
9. The Chairman and the Clerk of the Board of Commis-
sioners and the Director of Finance of the Issuer are hereby
authorized and directed to cause the Bonds to be prepared and,
-13-

mission, to execute the Bonds and have the Bonds endorsed and au-
thenticated as provided herein and to deliver the Bonds to the

forth financial and statistical data in connection with the
offering of the Bonds, which was circulated with the Notice of
Sale thereof, is hereby approved. In connection with this ap-
proval, the Board of Commissioners of the Issuer has examined
copies of the Official statement and has, to the extent and in the
manner it has deemed necessary, discussed the contents thereof
with officers of the administration of the Issuer. The Board of
Commissioners of the Issuer does hereby recite that, upon its
examination and discussions, nothing has come to its attention
which would lead it to believe that said Official statement
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state
any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not mis-
leading.
11. The Issuer covenants to comply with the provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code of 198, as amended (the "Code"), as
enacted into law to the extent required to preserve the exclusion
from gross income of interest on the Bonds for Federal income tax
purposes.
12. The Issuer specifically covenants that at least 95%
of the net proceeds of the Bonds will be used for solid waste
disposal facilities within the meaning of section 142(a) of the
Code.
13. The Chairman and the Clerk of the Board of Commis-
sioners, the County Manager and the County Director of Finance and
the other officers of the Issuer are hereby authorized and
directed to execute and deliver for and on behalf of the Issuer
any and all financing statements, certificates, documents or other
papers and to perform any and all acts they may deem necessary or
appropriate in order to carry out the intent of this resolution
and the matters herein authorized.
