replacement of another Series 1990 Bond prior to the first
scheduled interest payment date on the Series 1990 Bonds (as stated
on the face thereof) shall be dated the same date as such Series
1990 Bond, but each substitute bond so delivered on or after such
first scheduled interest payment date shall be dated as of the
interest payment date preceding the date on which such substitute
bond is delivered, unless such substitute bond is delivered on an
interest payment date, in which case it shall be dated as of such
date of delivery; provided, however, that if at the time of
delivery of any substitute bond the interest on the bond for which
it is being exchanged has not been paid, then such substitute bond

in full. On each substitute bond issued in exchange for or
replacement of any Series 1990 Bond or Bonds issued under this
Ordinance there shall be printed thereon a Paying Agent/Registrar's
