Delivery; Application of Proceeds. The Certificates when so prepared and executed shall be delivered by the Finance Director to the Purchaser upon receipt of the purchase price, and the Purchaser shall not be obliged to see to the proper application thereof. 15. Fund and Accounts. There is hereby created a special fund to be designated the "General Obligation Equipment Certificates of 2003 Fund" (the "Fund") to be administered and maintained by the Finance Director as a bookkeeping account separate and apart from all other funds maintained in the official financial records of the City. The Fund shall be maintained in the manner herein specified until all of the Certificates and the interest thereon have been fully paid. There shall be maintained in the Fund a "Capital Account" and a "Debt Service Account". (a) Capital Account. To the Capital Account there shall be credited the proceeds of the sale of the Certificates, less accrued interest received thereon. From the Capital Account there shall be paid all costs and expenses of the acquisition of the Project including all costs incurred and to be incurred of the kind authorized in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65. The moneys in the Capital Account shall be used for no other purpose except as otherwise provided by law; provided that the proceeds of the Certificates may also be used to the extent necessary to pay interest on the Certificates due prior to the anticipated date of commencement of the collection of taxes herein levied. (b) Debt Service Account. There are hereby irrevocably appropriated and pledged to, and there shall be credited to, the Debt Service Account: (i) all accrued interest received upon delivery of the Certificates; (ii) any collections of all taxes herein or hereafter levied for the payment of the Certificates and interest thereon; (iii) all funds remaining in the Capital Account after the payment of all costs of the Project; (iv) all investment earnings on funds held in the Debt Service Account; and (v) any and all other moneys which are properly available and are appropriated by the governing body of the City to the Debt Service Account. The Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the principal and interest of the Certificates and any other general obligation certificates of the City hereafter issued by the City and made payable from said account as provided by law. No portion of the proceeds of the Certificates shall be used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments or to replace funds which were used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments, except (1) for a reasonable temporary period until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Certificates were issued and (2) in addition to the above in an amount not greater than the lesser of five percent of the proceeds of the Certificates or $100,000.
