The Public Entity acknowledges that its interest in the Real Property is, or when acquired by it will be, "state bond financed property", as such term is used in Minn. Stat.

Section 3.02 Preservation of Tax Exempt Status. In order to preserve the tax - exempt status of the G.O. Bonds, the Public Entity agrees as follows: A. It will not use the Real Property or use or invest the LBRP Grant or any other sums treated as "bond proceeds" under Section 148 of the Code (including "investment proceeds," "invested sinking funds" and "replacement proceeds ") in such a manner as to cause the G.O.

Bonds to no longer be tax exempt and upon direction from the Commissioner, take such actions and furnish such documents as the Commissioner determines to be necessary to ensure that the interest to be paid on the G.O. Bonds is exempt from federal taxation, which such action may include: (i) compliance with proceedings intended to classify the G.O.

It will not otherwise use any of the LBRP Grant or take, permit or cause to be taken, or omit to take, any action that would adversely affect the exemption from federal income taxation of the interest on the G.O. Bonds, and if it should take, permit or cause to be taken, or omit to take, as appropriate, any such action, it shall take all lawful actions necessary to correct such actions or omissions promptly upon obtaining knowledge thereof. Section 3.03 Changes to G.O. Compliance Legislation or the Commissioner's Order. If Minn. Stat. Sec. 16A.695 or the Commissioner's Order is amended in a manner that reduces any requirement imposed against the Public Entity, or if the Public Entity's interest in the Real Property becomes exempted from Minn. Stat. Sec. 16A.695 and the Commissioner's Order, then upon written request by the Public Entity, MnDOT shall execute an amendment to the Agreement to implement such amendment or exempt the Public Entity's interest in the Real Property from Minn. Stat. Sec. 16A.695 and the Commissioner's Order. Article IV DISBURSEMENT OF GRANT PROCEEDS Section 4.01 The Advances. MnDOT agrees, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, to make Advances of the LBRP Grant to the Public Entity from time to time in an aggregate total amount not to exceed the amount of the LBRP Grant. If the amount of LBRP Grant that MnDOT cumulatively disburses hereunder to the Public Entity is less than the amount of the LBRP Grant delineated in Section 1.01, then MnDOT and the Public Entity shall enter into and execute whatever documents MnDOT may request in order to amend or modify this Agreement to reduce the amount of the LBRP Grant to the amount actually disbursed. Provided, however, in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 2.11, MnDOT's obligation to make Advances shall terminate as of the dates specified in Section 2.11 even if the entire LBRP Grant has not been disbursed by such dates. Advances shall only be for expenses that (i) are for those items of a capital nature delineated in Source and Use of Funds that is attached as Exhibit A, (ii) accrued no earlier than the effective date of the legislation that appropriated the funds that are used to fund the LBRP Grant, or (iii) have otherwise been consented to, in writing, by the Commissioner. It is the intent of the parties hereto that the rate of disbursement of the Advances shall not exceed the rate of completion of the Project or the rate of disbursement of the matching funds required, if any, under Section 5.13. Therefore, the cumulative amount of all Advances disbursed by the State Entity at any point in time shall not exceed the portion of the Project that has been completed and the percentage of the 11 Mn,DOT Agreement No. 03780 matching funds required, if any, under Section 5.13 that have been disbursed as of such point in time. This requirement is expressed by way of the following two formulas: Fonnula #1: Cumulative Advances < (Program Grant) x (percentage of matching funds, if any, required under Section 5.13 that have been disbursed) Formula #2: Cumulative Advances < (Program Grant) x (percentage of Project completed) Section 4.02 Draw Requisitions. Whenever the Public Entity desires a disbursement of a portion of the LBRP Grant the Public Entity shall submit to MnDOT a Draw Requisition duly executed on behalf of the Public Entity or its designee. Each Draw Requisition with respect to construction items shall be limited to amounts equal to: (i) the total value of the classes of the work by percentage of completion as approved by the Public Entity and MnDOT, plus (ii) the value of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Project but delivered and suitably stored on or off the Real Property in a manner acceptable to MnDOT, less (iii) any applicable retainage, and less (iv) all prior Advances. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advances for materials stored on or off the Real Property will be made by MnDOT unless the Public Entity shall advise MnDOT, in writing, of its intention to so store materials prior to their delivery and MnDOT has not objected thereto.
