MnDOT Contract No. 02010 D. It will, upon the occurrence of any act or omission by the Public Entity that could cause the interest on 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. Bonds as a "qualified bond" within the meaning of Code -Section 141(e), or (ii) changing the nature of the use of the Real Property so that none of the net proceeds of the G.O. Bonds will be deemed to be used, directly or indirectly, in an "unrelated trade or business" or for any "private business use" within the meaning of Code Sections 141(b) and 145(a). E. It will not otherwise use any of the LRIP 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 LRIP Grant to the Public Entity from time to time in an aggregate total amount not to exceed the amount of the LRIP Grant. If the amount of LRIP Grant that MnDOT cumulatively disburses hereunder to the Public Entity is Less, than the amount of the LRIP 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 LRIP 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 LRIP 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 LRIP 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 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: 11
