G. By resolution duly adopted on August 27, 1999 by the State Bond Commission, the State is authorized to enter into this Indenture and to issue the Series 2000 Bonds for the purpose of financing the acquisition and construction of the Garage;

 

H. All acts and conditions required to be done or performed or to have been met precedent to and in the issuance of the Series 2000 Bonds and the signing and delivery of this Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture have been performed and have been met, or at the delivery of the Series 2000 Bonds will have been performed and will have been met (i) to make the Series 2000 Bonds, when issued, delivered and authenticated, valid special obligations of the State in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof, and (ii) to make this Indenture a valid, binding and legal trust agreement for the security of the Bonds in accordance with its terms;

 

I. The obligation of the State to pay the principal of and interest on the Series 2000 Bonds is to be insured, for the benefit of the Holders of the Series 2000 Bonds, by the Bond Insurer; and

 

J. The Trustee has accepted the trusts created by this Indenture and in evidence thereof has joined in the execution hereof;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, THIS INDENTURE WITNESSETH, that to secure: the payment of Debt Service on the Bonds according to their true intent and meaning and all other amounts due from time to time hereunder, including those due to the Trustee, and to secure the performance and observance of all of the covenants, agreements, obligations and conditions contained therein and herein, and to declare the terms and conditions upon and subject to which the Bonds are and are intended to be issued, held, secured and enforced, and in consideration of the premises and the acceptance by the Trustee of the trusts created herein and of the purchase and acceptance of the Bonds by the Holders, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is acknowledged, the State has signed and delivered this Indenture and does hereby absolutely and irrevocably pledge and assign to the Trustee and to its successors in trust, and its and their assigns, and grant a lien upon, all right, title and interest of the State in the Assigned Lease Rights, the Pledged Revenues, the Pledged Funds and the APCOA Guaranty (but only as to APCOA’s obligation thereunder to make Guarantor Payments) to the extent and with the exceptions provided in this Indenture;

 

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any pledge or assignment of, or lien on, any Fund, account, receivables, revenues, money or other intangible property not in the custody of the Trustee shall be valid and enforceable only to the extent permitted by law.

 

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD unto the Trustee and its successors in that trust and its and their assigns forever;

PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that if

 

(i) the principal of the Bonds and the interest due or to become due thereon, together with any premium required by redemption of any of the Bonds prior to maturity, shall be well and truly paid, at the times and in the manner to which reference is made in the Bonds, according to the true intent and meaning thereof, or the outstanding Bonds shall have been paid and discharged in accordance with Article IX hereof, and

ARTICLE III


TERMS OF BONDS GENERALLY

 

Section 3.01. Form of Bonds . The Bonds, the certificate of authentication and the form of assignment shall be substantially in the form thereof set forth in the related Supplemental Indenture for that series of Bonds with such insertions, deletions and variations as may be authorized or permitted by the Supplemental Indenture.

 

All Bonds shall be in fully registered form, and, except as provided in Section 3.05 hereof, the Holder of a Bond shall be regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes of this Indenture.

 

The Bonds of one series shall bear any designations that may be necessary or advisable to distinguish them from Bonds of any other series. The Bonds shall be negotiable instruments and shall express the purpose for which they are issued and any other statements or legends that may be required by law.

 

Section 3.02. Variable Terms . Subject to the provisions of this Indenture, each series of Bonds shall be dated, shall mature in the years and the amounts, shall bear interest at the rate or rates per year, shall be payable on the dates, shall have the Registrar, Paying Agents and Authenticating Agents, shall be of the denominations, shall be subject to redemption on the terms and conditions and shall have any other terms that are set forth or provided for in this Indenture and the applicable Supplemental Indenture relating to that issue of Bonds.

 

Section 3.03. Execution and Authentication of Bonds . Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Supplemental Indenture, each Bond shall be signed in the name of the State by the Governor, the Treasurer and the Comptroller of the State (provided that any of those signatures may be facsimiles) and shall bear the seal of the State or a facsimile thereof. In case any officer whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature shall appear on any Bond shall cease to be that officer before the issuance of the Bond, his or her signature or the facsimile thereof nevertheless shall be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if he or she had remained in office until that time. Any Bond may be signed on behalf of the State by an officer who, on the date of signing is the proper officer, although on the date of the Bond that person was not the proper officer.

 

No Bond shall be valid or become obligatory for any purpose or shall be entitled to any security or benefit under this Indenture unless and until a certificate of authentication shall have been manually signed by the Trustee or by any Authenticating Agent for that series on behalf of the Trustee. The authentication by the Trustee or by an Authenticating Agent upon any Bond shall be conclusive evidence that the Bond so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the security and benefit of this Indenture. The certificate of authentication may be signed by any person authorized by the Trustee or Authenticating Agent, but it shall not be necessary that the same authorized person sign the certificates of authentication on all of the Bonds of a series.

 

27


 

Section 3.04. Security for the Bonds . Bonds issued under this Indenture shall be special obligations of the State payable from, and secured by, the sources described herein. Debt Service on all Bonds shall be equally and ratably payable from, and secured by a pledge of and lien on, the Assigned Lease Rights, the APCOA Guaranty (as to APCOA’s obligation thereunder to make Guarantor Payments), the Pledged Revenues and the Pledged Funds as provided in this Indenture, except as otherwise provided with respect to the separate accounts of the Debt Service Reserve Fund, and except as otherwise provided herein in connection with Subordinate Bonds. However, any pledge or assignment of or lien on any fund, account, receivables, revenues, money or other intangible property not in the custody of the Trustee shall be valid and enforceable only to the extent permitted by law. The State covenants that it will promptly pay from such sources the Debt Service on every Bond issued under the provisions of this Indenture at the places, on the dates and in the manner provided herein and in said Bonds, according to the true intent and meaning thereof.

 

Nothing herein shall prevent payment of Debt Service on one series of Bonds from being otherwise secured and protected from sources or by property and instruments not applicable to another series of Bonds.

 

Bonds issued pursuant to this Indenture shall be special obligations of the State and shall not be payable from nor charged upon any funds other than the Pledged Revenues or other receipts, funds or moneys pledged therefor pursuant to this Indenture, nor shall the State or any political subdivision thereof be subject to any liability thereon except to the extent of such Pledged Revenues or the receipts, funds and moneys pledged hereby. The issuance of Bonds pursuant hereto shall not directly or contingently obligate the State or any political subdivision thereof to levy or to pledge any form of taxation whatever therefor or to make any appropriation for their payment. The Bonds shall not be secured by the Gross Operating Revenues (as defined in the Bradley Airport Parity Bond Indenture) of the Airport and shall not constitute a charge, lien or encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property of the State or of any political subdivision thereof, except the property mortgaged or otherwise encumbered under the provisions of this Indenture. The substance of such limitation shall be plainly stated on the face of each Bond. Bonds issued pursuant to this Indenture shall not be subject to any statutory limitation on the indebtedness of the State, except as provided in the Act, and such Bonds, when issued, shall not be included in computing the aggregate indebtedness of the State in respect to and to the extent of any such limitation.

 

In consideration of the purchase and acceptance of the Bonds by those who hold the same from time to time, the provisions of this Indenture will be a part of the contract of the State with the holders of all Bonds issued under this Indenture and will be deemed to be and will constitute the contract among the State, the Trustee, and the holders from time to time of all such Bonds, and such provisions are covenants and agreements of the State with such holders which the State determines to be necessary and desirable for the security and payment thereof. The provisions, covenants and agreements of this Indenture set forth to be performed on behalf of the State will be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the holders of any and all of the Bonds issued under this Indenture, all of which, regardless of the time or times of their issue or maturity, will be of equal rank without preference, priority or distinction of any of the Bonds over any other therefor except as expressly provided in this Indenture.

 

28



 

Section 3.05. Payment and Ownership of Bonds . Debt Service shall be payable when due in lawful money of the United States of America without deduction for the services of the Trustee or any Paying Agent, except as otherwise provided pursuant to an agreement under Section 3.09 hereof:

 

(a) on any Bond in a book entry system registered in the name of a Depository or its nominee, in federal funds (i) in the case of principal of and any premium on any Bond, delivered or transmitted to the Depository or its authorized representative on or prior to the date when due, upon presentation and surrender of such Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee or at the office, designated by the Trustee, of any Paying Agent, and (ii) is the case of interest on any Bond, delivered or transmitted on or prior to any Interest Payment Date to the Depository or nominee that was the Holder of that Bond (or one or more Predecessor Bonds) at the close of business on the Regular Record Date applicable to that Interest Payment Date; and

 

(b) on any other Bond, (i) in the case of principal of and any premium on any Bond when due, upon presentation and surrender of such Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee or at the office, designated by the Trustee, of any Paying Agent and (ii) in the case of interest on any Bond, on each Interest Payment Date by check or draft which the Trustee shall cause to be mailed on that date to the Holder of the Bond (or one or more Predecessor Bonds) at the close of business on the Regular Record Date applicable to that Interest Payment Date at the Holder’s address as it appears on the Register.

 

If and to the extent, however, that the State shall fail to make payment or provision for payment of interest on any Bond on any Interest Payment Date, that interest shall cease to be payable to the person who was the Holder of that Bond (or of one or more Predecessor Bonds) as of the applicable Regular Record Date. When money becomes available for payment of the interest, (i) the Trustee shall establish, pursuant to Section 7.06(b) hereof, a Special Record Date for the payment of that interest, which Special Record Date shall be not more than 15 nor fewer than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment, and (ii) the Trustee shall cause notice of the proposed payment and of the Special Record Date to be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder at its address as it appears on the Register not fewer than 10 days prior to the Special Record Date and, thereafter, the interest shall be payable to the persons who are the Holders of the Bonds (or their respective Predecessor Bonds) at the close of business on the Special Record Date.

 

Subject to the foregoing, each Bond delivered under this Indenture, upon transfer thereof or in exchange for or in replacement of any other Bond, shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue on that Bond, or which were carried by that Bond.

 

Except as provided in this Section 3.05 and in the first paragraph of Section 3.07 hereof, (i) the Holder of any Bond shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes of this Indenture, (ii) payment of or on account of the Debt Service on any Bond shall be made only to or upon the order of that Holder or its duly authorized attorney in the manner permitted in this Indenture, and (iii) neither the State, the Trustee, the Registrar nor any Paying Agent or Authenticating Agent shall be affected, to the extent permitted by law, by notice to the contrary. All of those payments shall be valid and effective to satisfy and discharge the liability

 

29



 

upon that Bond, including without limitation, the interest thereon, to the extent of the amount or amounts so paid.

 

Section 3.06. Transfer and Exchange of Bonds . So long as any of the Bonds remain outstanding, the State will cause books for the registration and transfer of Bonds, as provided in this Indenture, to be maintained and kept at the designated office of the Registrar.

 

Except as provided with respect to the Bonds in book entry form pursuant to this Indenture, and unless otherwise provided in the applicable Supplemental Indenture, Bonds may be exchanged, at the option of their Holder, for Bonds of the same series and of any Authorized Denomination or Denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured and unredeemed principal amount of, and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date or dates as, the Bonds being exchanged. The exchange shall be made upon presentation and surrender of the Bonds being exchanged at the designated office of the Registrar or at the designated office of any Authenticating Agent for that series of Bonds, together with a written request therefor duly signed by the Holder or its duly authorized attorney in any form that shall be satisfactory to the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be.

 

Except as provided with respect to the Bonds in book entry form pursuant to this Indenture, any Bond may be transferred upon the Register, upon presentation and surrender thereof at the designated office of the Registrar or the designated office of any Authenticating Agent for the series thereof, together with an assignment duly signed by the Holder or its duly authorized attorney in any form that shall be satisfactory to the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be. Upon transfer of any Bond and on request of the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, the State shall execute, and the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond or Bonds of the same series in the name of the transferee, of any Authorized Denomination or Denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured and unredeemed principal amount of, and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date or dates as, the Bonds presented and surrendered for transfer.

 

In all cases in which Bonds shall be exchanged or transferred hereunder, the State shall execute, and the Registrar or any Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, shall authenticate and deliver, Bonds in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. The exchange or transfer shall be made without charge to the Holders; provided that the State and the Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, may make a charge for every exchange or transfer of Bonds that is sufficient in amount to reimburse them for any tax or excise required to be paid with respect to the exchange or transfer. Those charges shall be paid before a new Bond is delivered.

 

All Bonds issued upon any transfer or exchange of Bonds shall be the valid special obligations of the State, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Bonds surrendered upon transfer or exchange. Neither the State, the Registrar nor any Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, shall be required to make any exchange or transfer of a Bond during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Bonds and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing or to transfer or exchange any Bonds selected for redemption, in whole or in part.

 

30



 

In case any Bond is redeemed in part only, on or after the redemption date and upon presentation and surrender of the Bond, the State, subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 hereof, shall cause the execution of, and the Registrar or any Authenticating Agent for the series of that Bond shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond or Bonds of the same series in Authorized Denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured and unredeemed portion of, and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date or dates as, the Bond redeemed in part, with or without a new CUSIP number, if required.

 

The designated office of the Registrar and Authenticating Agent for purposes of this Section shall be established by the Trustee.

 

Section 3.07. Mutilated, Lost, Wrongfully Taken or Destroyed Bonds . If any Bond is mutilated, lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed, in the absence of written notice to the State or the Registrar that a lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed Bond has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the State shall execute, and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like date, maturity and denomination and of the same series as the Bond mutilated, lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed; provided that (i) in the case of any mutilated Bond, the mutilated Bond first shall be surrendered to the Registrar, and (ii) in the case of any lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed Bond, there first shall be furnished to the State, the Trustee and the Registrar evidence of the loss, wrongful taking or destruction satisfactory to the State, the Trustee and the Registrar, together with indemnity satisfactory to them.

 

If any lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed Bond shall have matured, instead of issuing a new Bond, the State may direct the Trustee to pay that Bond without surrender thereof upon the furnishing of satisfactory evidence and indemnity as in the case of issuance of a new Bond. The State, the Registrar and the Trustee may charge the Holder of a mutilated, lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed Bond their reasonable fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) in connection with their actions pursuant to this Section.

 

Every new Bond issued pursuant to this Section by reason of any Bond being mutilated, lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed (i) shall constitute, to the extent of the outstanding principal amount of the Bond mutilated, lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed, a contractual obligation of the State, regardless of whether the mutilated, lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed Bond shall be enforceable at any time by anyone, and (ii) shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Bonds issued and outstanding hereunder, provided that nothing in this paragraph shall limit the authority and right of the State to exercise its rights under the indemnity furnished at the time of issuance of a new Bond or payment of a Bond without surrender.

 

All Bonds shall be held and owned on the express condition that the foregoing provisions of this Section are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed Bonds and, to the extent permitted by law, shall preclude any and all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other investment securities without their surrender, notwithstanding any law or statute to the contrary now existing or enacted hereafter.

 

31



 

Section 3.08. Safekeeping and Cancellation of Bonds . Any Bond surrendered pursuant to this Article for the purpose of payment or retirement, or for exchange, replacement or transfer, shall be canceled upon presentation and surrender thereof to the Registrar, the Trustee or any Paying Agent or Authenticating Agent. Any Bond canceled by the Trustee or a Paying Agent or Authenticating Agent shall be transmitted promptly to the Registrar by the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Authenticating Agent.

 

The State may deliver at any time to the Registrar for cancellation any Bonds previously authenticated and delivered hereunder, which the State may have acquired in any manner whatsoever. All Bonds so delivered shall be canceled promptly by the Registrar. Certification of the surrender and cancellation shall be made to the State and the Trustee by the Registrar at least twice each calendar year.

 

Unless otherwise directed in writing by the State, canceled Bonds shall be retained and stored by the Registrar for a period of two years after their cancellation. After that time or at any earlier time directed in writing by the State, the canceled Bonds may, at the written direction of the State, be either returned to the State or destroyed by the Registrar by shredding or cremation. Certificates of any destruction of canceled Bonds (describing the manner thereof) shall be provided by the Registrar to the State and the Trustee.

 

Section 3.09. Book-Entry Bonds . Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Bonds may be authorized and issued in book entry form in accordance with the Supplemental Indenture authorizing such Bonds.

 

For all purposes of this Indenture the Holder of a Bond in book entry form shall be the Depository therefor and neither the State, the Registrar nor the Trustee shall have responsibility or any obligation to the beneficial owner of such Bond or to any direct or indirect participant in such Depository. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the State, the Registrar nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility or obligation to any such participant or to the beneficial owner of a Bond in book entry form with respect to (i) the accuracy of the records of the Depository or any participant with respect to any beneficial ownership interest in such Bond, (ii) the delivery to any participant of the Depository, the beneficial owner of such Bond or any other person, other than the Depository, of any notice with respect to such Bond, including any notice of the redemption thereof, or (iii) the payment to any participant of the Depository, the beneficial owner of such Bond or any other person, other than the Depository, of any amount with respect to the principal or redemption price of, or interest on, such Bond. The State, the Registrar and the Trustee may treat the Depository therefor as the absolute owner of a Bond in book entry form for the purpose of (x) payment of the principal or redemption price of, and interest on such Bond, (y) giving notices of redemption and of other matters with respect to such Bond, (z) registering transfers with respect to such Bond, and for all other purposes whatsoever. All principal or redemption price of, as applicable, and interest on, such Bond shall be paid only to or upon the order of the Depository, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the State’s obligations with respect to such principal or redemption price and interest, ABPC’s obligation under the Lease and APCOA’s obligation under the APCOA Guaranty, in each case with respect to payment of Debt Service on the Bonds, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No Person other than the

 

32



 

Depository shall receive a Bond or other instrument evidencing the State’s obligation to make payments of the principal or redemption price thereof, and interest thereon.

 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, payment of the redemption price of Bonds in book entry form which are redeemed prior to maturity may be paid to the Depository by wire transfer. Such payment of the redemption price of Bonds in book entry form to the Depository may be made without surrender of Bonds to the Trustee; provided, however, payment of principal and interest at maturity of Bonds in book entry form requires surrender of such Bonds to the Trustee.

 

The State, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Trustee, the beneficial owner of a Bond in book entry form or any other person, may terminate the services of the Depository with respect to Bonds in book entry form if the State determines that (i) the Depository is unable to discharge its responsibilities with respect to such Bonds or (ii) a continuation of the requirement that all of the Outstanding Bonds of like series issued in book-entry form be registered in the Register in the name of the Depository, is not in the best interest of the beneficial owners of such Bonds, and the State shall terminate the services of the Depository upon receipt by the State and the Trustee of written notice from the Depository that it has received written requests that such Depository be removed from its participants having beneficial interest, as shown in the records of the Depository, in an aggregate amount of not less than a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Bonds for which the Depository is serving as depository.

 

Upon the termination of the services of a Depository with respect to a Bond in book entry form, or upon the resignation of a Depository with respect to a Bond in book entry form, after which no substitute securities depository willing to undertake the functions of such Depository can be found which, in the opinion of the State, is able to undertake such functions upon reasonable and customary terms, such Bonds shall no longer be registered in the registration books kept by the Registrar in the name of a Depository, but shall be registered in the name or names Bondholders transferring or exchanging such Bonds shall designate, in accordance with provisions of Article III hereof.

 

Section 3.10. Nonpresentment of Bonds . In the event any Bond shall not be presented for payment when the principal of and any premium on the Bond becomes due in whole or in part, either at stated maturity, at the date fixed for redemption thereof, or otherwise, or in the event any check or draft for interest on any Bond is uncashed, if money sufficient to pay the principal and any premium then due on that Bond or such check or draft shall have been made available to the Trustee for the benefit of its Holder, then all liability of the State to that Holder for payment of the principal and any premium then due on the Bond or of the interest represented by such check or draft shall cease and be completely discharged. Thereupon, it shall be the duty of the Trustee to hold that money, without liability for interest thereon, in a separate account of the Trustee for the exclusive benefit of the Holder of that Bond, who shall be restricted thereafter exclusively to that money for any claim of whatever nature on its part under this Indenture on, or with respect to, the principal and any premium then due on that Bond or the interest represented by such check or draft.

 

33



 

Any of the money that shall be so held by the Trustee, and that remains unclaimed for a period of four years after the due date thereof by the Holder of the Bond not presented for payment or a check or draft not cashed, shall be paid to the State free of any trust or lien upon request in writing by the State. Thereafter, the Holder of that Bond shall look only to the State for payment and then only to the amounts so received by the State without any interest thereon, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to that money.

ARTICLE IV

 

REDEMPTION OF BONDS

 

Section 4.01. Terms of Redemption of Bonds . The Bonds of each series may be subject to redemption prior to stated maturity as provided in the Supplemental Indenture applicable to that series. The provisions of tills Article IV may be varied with respect to the series of Bonds pursuant to the applicable Supplemental Indenture.

 

Section 4.02. Partial Redemption. If fewer than all of the outstanding Bonds of a series that are stated to mature on different dates are called for redemption at one time, those Bonds that are called shall be designated by the State. If fewer than all of the Bonds of a single maturity are to be redeemed, the selection of Bonds to be redeemed, or portions thereof in Authorized Denominations, shall be made by lot by the Trustee in any manner that the Trustee may determine. In the case of a partial redemption of Bonds by lot when Bonds of Authorized Denominations greater than the minimum Authorized Denomination are then outstanding, each unit of principal thereof in the minimum Authorized Denomination shall be treated as though it were a separate Bond of the minimum Authorized Denomination. If it is determined that one or more, but not all of the minimum Authorized Denomination units of principal amount represented by a Bond are to be called for redemption, then upon notice of redemption of such a unit or units the Holder of that Bond shall surrender the Bond to the Trustee (a) for payment of the redemption price of the unit or units called for redemption (including without limitation, the interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption and any premium), and (b) for issuance, without charge to the Holder thereof, of a new Bond or Bonds of the same series, of any Authorized Denomination or Denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured and unredeemed portion of, and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date or dates as, the Bond surrendered, with or without a new CUSIP number, if required.

 

Section 4.03. Notice of Redemption . The notice of the call for redemption of Bonds shall identify (i) by designation, letters, numbers or other distinguishing marks, the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, (ii) the redemption price to be paid, (iii) the date fixed for redemption, and (iv) the place or places where the amounts due upon re
