redemption of any bond exceed the coupon rate applicable to said bond.
At least thirty (30) days prior to the day of call of any bonds,
notice of redemption shall be published once in a financial paper
published in San Francisco or New York, and such notice shall be mailed
by registered mail to the last known holder or holders of any bearer

or any interest coupons thereon after the redemption date specified in
said notice.
The District may also, from time to time, purchase any or all of
said outstanding bonds at prices offered, at or below the sum required
to be paid in the event of redemption by call. All bonds purchased
or called will be canceled and will not again be reissued.
i
Both principal and interest are payable in lawful money of the
United States of America at the principal office of the Bank of America
National Trust and Savings Association, San Francisco, California' the
fiscal agent of the District, or at any other bank or trust company
designated by said fiscal agent as a correspondent in the cities of
New York, New York, Chicago, Illinois, or Los Angeles, California.
This bond is one of an issue in the total principal amount of
$450,000, all of like date and tenor except as to number, maturity,
prior redemption (and interest rate), all issued by the District for
the purpose of providing money to finance a project consisting of addi-
tions and improvements to an enterprise consisting of the District sewer
system, as set forth and described in Ordinance No. 295 entitled
n Ordinance Providing for the Issuance of Sewer Revende Bonds, Fixing
the Form of Bonds and Providing Covenants for Their Protection, Sewer
Revenue Bonds of 197~", adopted on June 7, 197~, to which reference is
hereby made for the obligations, duties, rights and privileges hereby
created, and as authorized by law and in strict accordance with Chapter
5, Part ~, Division 5 of the Health and Safety Code of the State of
California, commonly referred to as the Sewer Revenue Bond Act of 19~,
and Resolution No. 1802, entitled "A Resolution of Intention to Acquire
and Construct Sewer Pumping Station and Interceptor Sewer and to Issue
Sewer Revenue Bonds to Cover the Cost Thereof", adopted by the Board
of Directors of the South Tahoe Public Utility District on May l?,
Both principal and interest are payable solely from the revenues
of the enterprise hereinabove referred to and the District is not obli-
gated to pay the principal hereof or interest hereon except from the
revenues of said enterprise. The bonds constitute a first and prior
lien upon said revenues except that additional bonds may be issued on
a parity of lien in accordance with the ordinance hereinbefore referred
to. Said lien is, however, subject and subordinate to the prior charge
and lien of the bonds of prior lien (consisting of the outstanding and
unpaid Sewer Revenue Bonds of 1966 and Sewer Revenue Bonds of 1967) and
any indenture provided therefor.
All of the revenues to be derived from the sewer service charges
received for and all other income and receipts derived from the opera-
tion of or arising from the enterprise and the services or facilities
thereof, including revenues from improvements, additions and exten-
sions thereto which may hereafter be constructed or acquired, and from
other charges, are pledged to pay the principal of and interest on the
bonds, and to provide (1) a bond fund, (2) a reserve fund, (~) opera-
tion and maintenance funds, and (4) a surplus fund, as provided in said
ordinance, subject, however, to the prior charge and lien of said bonds
of prior lien, and any indenture provided therefor.
This bond is subject to registration as to principal and interest
upon written request of the owner and presentation of the bond to the
fiscal agent for registration. Thereafter, the principal hereof and
interest hereon shall be payable only to such registered owner. Bonds
may also be registered as to principal only, in which event the coupons
shall not be ~emoved. Registered bonds may be deregistered and again
become ~ayable to bearer.
The District has created a special sewer revenue bond fund for
the payment of said principal and interest and has agreed to set aside
periodically in said fund, commencing with the date hereof, an equal
aliquot part necessary to pay interest which shall become due on the
next Succeeding interest payment date, and, commencing twelve (12)
months prior to the first maturity of the bonds~ an equal aliquot part
of the amount necessary to pay the installment of principal which shall
fall due at the next ensuing principal payment date.
ii
For the further protection of the payment of the bonds and the
interest thereon when due, the District has created a special sewer
revenue bond reserve fund, into which it has agreed to pay from the
proceeds of the bonds and to maintain therein an amount equal to the
average annual aggregate amount of principal and interest to accrue
during the term of the bonds, which fund shall be used solely as a
guarantee for the payment of'the principal of and interest on said
bonds.
IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED AND RECITED that all acts, conditions and
