the Bonds, advances to the Bond Trustee for payment to Bondowners in the event of a Bankruptcy Recovery. Each instance of providing amounts to the Bond Trustee for deposit into the Reserve Account, or for payment in the event of a Bankruptcy Recovery,
shall constitute an "advance." The City's obligation shall be enforced in accordance with Section 6.3, consistent with applicable notice and cure periods stated in Section (( (b) Time and Amount to be Advanced. Funds shall be advanced at such time, if any, as the amount available to the Bond Trustee to replenish the Reserve Account is insufficient to meet the Reserve Requirement, as determined in accordance with Section 3.5 of this Agreement. In the event that the Bond Trustee has notice of any Bankruptcy Recovery and sufficient funds are not otherwise available to the Bond Trustee, the City shall, upon not less than 45 days' notice from the Bond Trustee, make an advance to the Bond Trustee for payment to such Bondowner(s) in the amount of such Bankruptcy Recovery. The total amount of funds to be advanced by the City pursuant to this Agreement (including all advances made into the Reserve Account and all advances made in the event of a Bankruptcy Recovery) shall not exceed the principal amount of the Bonds issued, plus an amount necessary to make the originally scheduled interest payments on those Bonds as shown in the Bond Debt Service Schedule.

Trustee in the amounts at the times and in the manner described in this Agreement shall commence as of the date of Bond Closing, and once commenced, shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall not be subject to diminution by setoff, counterclaim,

Interest on the advances will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in the year, for the actual number of days elapsed. The rate of interest borne by each advance shall be a variable rate, determined monthly on the first Business Day of each month, based on the source of funds used by the City to fund the advance to the Bond Trustee, as follows: (1) If the City borrows money in order to make the advance (other than any internal or inter-fund borrowing), the interest rate shall be equal to the City's true interest cost plus 200 basis points. (2) If the City makes the advance from City funds (including general funds or funds from any internal or inter-fund borrowing), then interest shall be calculated in arrears each month, on the first Business Day of the month, and shall be equal to the greater of: (i) the Federal Funds rate plus 300 basis points, or (ii) the Bank Prime Loan rate, as those rates are identified in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 on the first Business Day of each month. The City may employ either method or both for obtaining funds from which to make each advance, may change from one to the other from time to time after making an advance, and may refund its borrowing from time to time as it sees fit. Upon making an advance, the City shall promptly inform the Lockbox Agent, the Bond Trustee, the Authority and the Museum of the amount advanced, whether the initial source of the funds advanced is the source described in clause (1) or (2) above, and the applicable initial interest rate.

(d) The Authority's and the City's responsibilities under this section shall be limited to actions within each entity's respective control.

This notice shall not extend or otherwise affect the cure periods set forth in Section 6.1(c), which shall run from the occurrence of the Event of Default and not from the date of the notice. Failure or deficiency in the giving or receiving of notice under this paragraph shall not in any way affect the City's rights and available remedies under this Guarantee Agreement and the Security Documents, and shall not affect the City's right to exercise those remedies at the expiration of the cure periods described in Section 6.1(c).

In so doing, the City may act at the City Finance Director's absolute sole discretion as to the insurance carrier(s) selected, the cost paid, the terms of the policy(ies) chosen, and coverages (not to exceed the requirements of Exhibit I), and shall be under no obligation to act in a commercially reasonable manner. (2) During the period beginning on the fifth business day prior to the end of the applicable cure period, if the City Finance Director has a reasonable basis to conclude, based on the information available to him, that the default will not be cured, the City may proceed to arrange for replacement insurance to be placed effective no earlier than the final day of the cure period, and the Authority and the Museum shall be jointly and severally obligated to reimburse the City for any costs incurred, including interest computed in accordance with Section 3.2(b). (3) Any policy placed by the City under this Section 6.2(b) shall remain in effect until the City Finance Director has been satisfied that the Authority or the Museum has caused other insurance to be obtained that meets the requirements of Exhibit I, and shall be subject to cancellation (and refund of unearned premium) to permit the Authority or the Museum to place (or cause placement of) replacement insurance. To carry out the foregoing, within 5 business days after the City Finance Director's receipt of binders and/or evidence of insurance (as applicable) submitted by the Authority or the Museum in order to demonstrate that such replacement insurance is in compliance with Exhibit I: (i) if the City Finance Director is satisfied that the Exhibit I requirements have been met, the City shall give any required notice of cancellation of the City-placed insurance; or (ii) if the City Finance Director is not satisfied that the Exhibit I requirements have been met, the City shall invoke the arbitration procedure described in Section 6.1(c)(1). If and to the extent that any reimbursement of premium to the City (from its insurance company) causes the City to have recovered in total more than the costs it incurred arising from an Event of Default under Section 6.1(a)(6), (7), or (8), the excess shall be returned to the Authority or the Museum (or credited against any amount due from the Authority or the Museum) after the City has been made whole. (c) Reimbursement of Insurance Payments. The following provisions shall govern reimbursement of the City's costs incurred in connection with the placement or procurement of replacement insurance by the City pursuant to Section 6.1(d): (1) The Authority and the Museum each jointly and severally agree to reimburse the City, within 5 business days after demand, for any insurance premium paid by the City hereunder (whether force-placed or otherwise) and all costs, including without limitation, any insurance premium(s), interest on such premium payment(s) and any other costs or fees the City may incur in obtaining the insurance. City costs incurred during the period described in Section 6.2(b)(2) are recoverable even if the Authority or the Museum cures the default. The obligations of the Authority and the Museum to reimburse the City under paragraph (1) of this subsection is secured by the Security Documents. This reimbursement obligation is not governed by the provisions under Section 3.2 for reimbursement of advances made to the Bond Trustee (except as reference may be made to Section 3.2(b) for calculation of appropriate interest rates on reimbursement obligations). Notice of the demand shall be sent by the City to the Authority, the Museum, the Lockbox Agent and the Bond Trustee. (2) If the Museum and the Authority fail to reimburse the City in full within 5 business days after demand, the City Finance Director may deliver notice to the Lockbox Agent (with copies to the Bond Trustee, the Authority and the Museum) that the Authority and the Museum have failed to reimburse City for such insurance payments, and the Lockbox Agent shall act in accordance with Section 4.1(b). In addition to receiving the excess funds from the Bond Trustee and Lockbox Agent, the City may also pursue any and all other remedies available to it to recover reimbursement for any and all costs, including without limitation, any insurance premium(s), interest on such premium payment(s) and any other costs or fees the City may incur in obtaining replacement insurance. (d) Effect of Waiver in Accordance with City Ordinance. The City (through the City Finance Director or by Council ordinance, as applicable, in accordance with the City Ordinance) may waive any Authority or Museum default and may rescind a Declaration of Default and its consequences; but no such waiver, rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent Authority or Museum default or impair any right incident thereto. Section 6.3 City Default; Bond Trustee Default . (a) City Default. Upon the occurrence of a City Default, the Authority or the Bond Trustee may proceed to protect and enforce its rights in equity or at law, either in mandamus or for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy, as the Authority or the Bond Trustee, as applicable, may deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of its rights or interests hereunder.
(b) Default by Trustee or Lockbox Agent. It shall constitute a default of this Agreement by the Bond Trustee or the Lockbox Agent if either, as applicable, fails to perform one or more of its obligations required under this Agreement(( Section 6.4 No Remedy Exclusive .

Section 6.5 No Implied Waiver .

The execution and delivery by the Museum of the Museum Documents and the compliance with the obligations on its part contained therein or herein does not conflict with or constitute a breach of or a default under the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Museum, or under ch. 24.03 RCW (the "Washington Nonprofit Corporation Act"), or any constitutional provision, law, administrative regulation, judgment, decree, loan agreement, indenture, bond, note, resolution, agreement or other instrument to which the Museum is a party or to which the Museum or any of its properties or other assets is otherwise subject, nor does any such execution, delivery or compliance result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or other security interest or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of the properties or other assets of the Museum or under the terms of any such law, regulation or instrument, except as provided or permitted by the Museum Documents. 7. Under its articles of incorporation, its bylaws and the Washington Nonprofit Corporation Act, no approval, consent or order of any governmental authority, legislative body, board, agency, or commission is required for the Museum to duly authorize the execution of the Museum Documents. 8. The Museum has complied with all agreements and covenants to be undertaken by the Museum and satisfied all conditions required under the Museum Documents on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to Bond Closing. 9.
