(224196) (80D)937-3799 Page 6 of 6 ADDENDUM TO LOAN AGREEMENT DATED JUNE 2.2003 BETWEEN MIAMI SHORES VILLAGE AND SUNTRUST BANK This Addendum shall modify that certain Loan Agreement dated June 2,2003,from Miami Shores Village, as Borrower, and SunTrust Bank, as Lender, relating to the Borrower's $950,000 Fixed Rate Promissory Note (the "2003A Note") and $330,000 Fixed Rate Promissory Note (the "2003B Note" and collectively with the 2003A Note,the"Notes"). SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS. As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires: 1. So long as the Notes shall remain outstanding,the Borrower shall maintain and keep books for the registration and transfer of the Notes.The Notes shall be in substantially the form attached as Exhibit"A"to the Loan Agreement. 2. The Notes shall not be or constitute general obligations or indebtedness of the Borrower within the meaning of the Constitution of Florida,but shall be payable from and secured solely by the Collateral described in this Addendum,in the manner and to the extent in this Loan Agreement provided. The Lender shall never have the right to compel the exercise of the ad valorem taxing power of the Borrower or taxation in any form on any real or personal property to pay the Notes or the interest thereon,nor shall the Lender be entitled to payment of such principal and interest from any funds of the Borrower other than the Collateral. The Lender shall have no lien upon any real or tangible personal property of the Borrower. 3. Payment of the principal of and interest on the 2003A Note shall be secured forthwith equally and ratably by an irrevocable lien on and pledge of one third (1/3) of the Local Option Fuel Tax revenues received by the Borrower in each of its fiscal years pursuant to Section 336.025, Florida Statutes(the"Pledged Local Option Fuel Tax"),prior and superior to all other liens or encumbrances on the Pledged Local Option Fuel Tax, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably pledges the Pledged Local Option Fuel Tax to the payment of the principal of and interest on the 2003A Note as the same shall become due. Such pledge of the Pledged Local Option Fuel Tax shall be cumulative to the extent not paid, and shall continue until the 2003A Note has been paid in full. The Borrower represents that the Pledged Local Option Fuel Tax will not be pledged or encumbered in any manner,except for the payment of the 2003A Note.The Borrower represents that the proceeds of the 2003A Note will be used for"transportation expenditures"as defined in Section 336.025(7), Florida Statutes. 4. In addition to the pledge of the Pledged Local Option Fuel Tax , the Borrower hereby covenants to budget and appropriate in its annual budget for each of its fiscal years,by amendment if necessary, from Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues, sufficient moneys to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes,until the Notes are paid in full. Such covenant and agreement on the part of the Borrower shall be cumulative to the extent not paid, and shall continue until Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues or other available funds in amounts sufficient to make all required payments shall have been budgeted,appropriated and actually paid. Notwithstanding the 1 {MGM/014536.0034/W8024331_4,5/25/2003 0233 PM} foregoing covenant of the Borrower, the Borrower does not covenant to maintain any services or programs now provided or maintained by the Borrower,which generate Non Ad-Valorem Revenues. "Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues"means all revenues of the Borrower derived from any source whatsoever, other than ad valorem taxation on real and personal property, which are legally available to make the payments of principal and interest on the Notes,but only after provision has been made by the Borrower for payment of services and programs which are for essential public purposes affecting the health, welfare and safety of the inhabitants of the Borrower, or which are legally mandated by applicable law. Such covenant to budget and appropriate does not create any lien upon or pledge of such Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues, nor, except as provided elsewhere herein, does it preclude the Borrower from pledging in the future a particular source or sources of Non Ad- Valorem Revenues. Such covenant to budget and appropriate Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues is subject in all respects to the payment of obligations heretofore or hereafter(but only to the extent permitted hereby)entered into,including but not limited to the payment of debt service on bonds and other debt instruments. However,the covenant to budget and appropriate in its Annual Budget for the purposes and in the manner stated herein shall have the effect of making available in the manner described herein Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues and placing on the Borrower a positive duty to budget and appropriate,by amendment if necessary,amounts sufficient to meet its obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon its receipt of the proceeds of the 2002B Note and application of the proceeds thereof to repay the Borrower's existing notes in favor of Bank of America(approximately$240,000)and SunTrust Bank(approximately$90,000)(the"Prior Notes"), there will be no debt for borrowed money of the Borrower secured by or payable from the Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues other than the Notes and that certain line of credit dated September 5, 2002, from the Bank in an amount not to exceed$500,000. 5. The Priority Local Option Fuel Tax received by the Borrower in each of its fiscal years shall be equal to at least 100% of the annual debt service on the 2003A Note. 6. For each fiscal year of the Borrower while the Notes are outstanding,the Available Revenues of the Borrower must always be equal to at least 200%of the annual debt service on all obligations of the Borrower that are secured by a covenant to budget and appropriate from Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues. For purposes of this paragraph, "Available Revenues"means (a) all non ad valorem general fund revenues of the Borrower, less (i) amounts used to pay expenses for General Government Expenditures and Public Safety,as such items are set forth as line items in the audited financial statements of the Borrower(`Essential Services Expenditures"),and(ii)an amount equal to the annual debt service on all obligations of the Borrower that are secured by a pledge of a particular source of non ad valorem revenues, plus (b) the portion of ad valorem taxes of the Borrower used to pay Essential Services Expenditures.For purposes of this paragraph,the portion of ad valorem taxes of the Borrower used to pay Essential Services Expenditures shall be calculated by multiplying the ratio of total ad valorem taxes to total General Fund Revenues times the Borrower's Essential Services Expenditures. 2 {MGM/014536.00341W8024331 4/5252003 0233 PM} 7. Before the first day of each of its fiscal years the Borrower shall prepare,approve and adopt in the manner prescribed by law, a detailed annual budget. Such annual budget shall provide for revenues sufficient to comply with the Borrower's obligations hereunder,including any unsatisfied obligations from prior fiscal years.The Borrower shall annually provide the Lender with a copy of its annual budget within thirty(30)days of its adoption. 8. The Borrower agrees not to issue any obligations or incur any liability payable from or secured by the Priority Local Option Fuel Tax having a right to payment therefrom that is prior to the right to payment therefrom of the 2003A Note.The Borrower also agrees not to issue any obligations or incur any liability payable from or secured by the Priority Local Option Fuel Tax or by a covenant to budget and appropriate from Legally Available Non-Ad Valorem Revenues unless (a) after the issuance of such debt the tests set forth in the paragraph 4 and 5 of this addendum will continue to be met, (b) no Event of Default exists under this Loan Agreement or the Notes and (c) the other covenants of the Borrower contained in this Loan Agreement will continue to be met.For purposes of determining compliance with(a)above,the interest rate on any obligation or liability which bears interest at a variable rate will be deemed to be the greater of(a)the projected initial rate of interest to be borne by such obligation or liability or(ii) six percent(6.00%)per annum. 9. It is the intention of the Borrower and all parties under its control that the interest on the Notes be and remain excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and to this end the Borrower hereby represents to and covenants with the Lender that it will comply with the requirements applicable to it contained in Section 103 and Part IV of Subchapter B of Chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,as amended(the"Code")to the extent necessary to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Notes issued hereunder from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Specifically, without intending to limit in any way the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower covenants and agrees: a) to refrain from using proceeds from the Notes in a manner that might cause the Notes to be classified as a private activity bond under Section 141(a) of the Code; and b) to refrain from taking any action that would cause the Notes to become arbitrage bonds under Section 148 of the Code. The Borrower understands that the foregoing covenants impose continuing obligations of the Borrower that will exist as long as the requirements of Section 103 and Part IV of Subchapter B of Chapter 1 of the Code are applicable to the Notes. 10. No covenant, stipulation,obligation or agreement contained in this Loan Agreement or the Notes shall be a covenant, stipulation, obligation or agreement of any present or future member, agent, officer or employee of the Borrower or its governing body in his or her individual capacity, and neither the members or officers of the governing body of the Borrower nor any official executing the Notes shall be liable personally on the Notes or shall be subject to any personal liability or 3 {MGM/014536.0034/W8024331 4/5/25/2003 0233 PM} accountability by reason of the issuance or the execution of the Notes by the Borrower or such members thereof. 11. Venue in any legal proceeding brought under or with respect to this Loan Agreement or the Notes shall be a court of appropriate jurisdiction in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
