If the successful bidder fails to purchase the Bonds pursuant to its bid and contract, then the amount of such good faith deposit shall be retained by the Municipality as liquidated damages for such failure. No interest will be allowed on the amount of the good faith deposit.
AWARD OF BONDS: The award, if any, will be made to the bidder complying with the terms of sale and offering to purchase the Bonds at the lowest net interest cost to the Municipality, which shall be determined by computing the aggregate interest on the Bonds over the life of the issue at the rate or rates of interest specified by the bidder, less premium offered, if any. It is requested that each bid be accompanied by a statement of the net interest cost (computed to six decimal places), but such statement will not be considered a part of the bid.

RIGHT OF REJECTION, CANCELLATION: The Governing Body reserves the right to reject any or all bids submitted, as well as to waive any irregularity or informality in any bid.

The Governing Body shall have the right, at its option, to cancel its agreement to sell the Bonds if within 5 days after the tender of the Bonds for delivery the successful bidder shall not have accepted delivery of and paid for the Bonds, and in such event the Governing Body shall retain the successful bidder's good faith deposit as liquidated damages as hereinabove provided.
PAYING AGENT, TRANSFER AGENT, AND REGISTRAR: The successful bidder may designate a bank or trust company located within the State to serve as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the Bonds within 48 hours of the date of the sale of the Bonds, subject to the approval of the Governing Body. The Governing Body’s approval of the Paying Agent shall be contingent on a determination as to the willingness and ability of the Paying Agent to perform the duties of registrar and transfer agent and on the satisfactory negotiation of service fees. The Paying Agent shall be subject to change by order of the Governing Body under the conditions and in the manner provided in the Bond Resolution under which the Bonds are issued. Both principal of and interest on the Bonds will be payable by check or draft mailed to Registered Owners of the Bonds as of the 15th day of the month preceding the maturity date for such principal or interest payment at the addresses appearing in the registration records of the Municipality maintained by the Paying Agent. The Bonds will be transferable only upon the books of the Paying Agent, and payment of principal at maturity shall be conditioned on the proper presentation and surrender of the Bonds to the Paying Agent.
DELIVERY: The successful bidder must designate within 20 days of the date of sale, or at such other later date as may be designated by the Governing Body, the names and addresses of the Registered Owners of the Bonds and the denominations in which the Bonds of each maturity are to be issued. If the successful bidder fails to submit such information within the required time, one Bond may be issued for each maturity in the full amount maturing on that date registered in the name of the successful bidder. The Bonds will be delivered at a place to be designated by the purchaser and without cost to the purchaser, and payment therefor shall be made in immediately available funds.
CUSIP NUMBERS: Unless specifically requested by the purchaser, it is not anticipated that CUSIP identification numbers will be requested for the Bonds, but neither the failure to print such number on any Bond nor any error with respect thereto shall constitute cause for a failure or refusal by the purchaser thereof to accept delivery of and pay for the Bonds in accordance with the terms of the purchase contract. Any expenses in relation to the printing of CUSIP numbers on the Bonds shall be paid by the Municipality; the CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of said numbers shall be the responsibility of and shall be paid for by the purchaser.
LEGAL OPINION; CLOSING DOCUMENTS: The Bonds are offered subject to the unqualified approval of the legality thereof by Bond Counsel. In the opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for purposes of federal and State income taxes under existing laws, regulations, rulings, and judicial decisions. A copy of the opinion of Bond Counsel, together with the usual closing papers, including a no-litigation certificate dated the date of delivery of the Bonds, evidencing that no litigation is pending in any way affecting the legality of the Bonds or the revenues pledged for the payment of the principal thereof and interest thereon, and a transcript of the proceedings relating to the Bonds, will be delivered to the successful bidder without charge. The Municipality will pay for all legal fees and will pay for the printing and validation of the Bonds.
BONDS ARE QUALIFIED TAX-EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS: The Municipality has designated the Bonds as “qualified tax-exempt obligations” within the meaning and for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE: The Bonds are not subject to continuing disclosure pursuant to S.E.C. Rule 15c2-12(b)(5).
