In addition to the right to issue obligations of inferior lien as authorized by the laws of this State, the City reserves the right to issue Additional Parity Obligations which, when duly autho.rized and issued in compliance with law and the terms and conditions hereinafter appearing, shall be on a parity with the Bonds herein authorized, payable from and equally and ratably secured by a lien on and pledge of the Net Revenues of the System; and the Bonds and Additional Parity Obligations shall in all respects be of equal dignity. The Additional Parity Obligations may be issued in one or more installments, provided, however, that none shall be issued unless and until the following conditions have been met: (a) The City is not then in default as to any covenant, condition or obligation prescribed in an ordinance authorizing the issuance of the outstanding Parity Revenue Obligations. (b) The proposed Additional Parity Obligations shall have been approved by the Attorney General of Texas. (c) Each of the Funds created for the payment, security and benefit. of the Parity Revenue Obligations contains the amount of money then required to be on deposit therein. (d) The City has secured from a Certified Public Accountant a certificate or report reflecting that for the fiscal year next preceding the date of the proposed Additional Parity Obligations or a consecutive twelve (12) month period out of the fifteen (15) month period next preceding the month in which the ordinance authorizing the proposed Additional Parity Obligations is adopted, the "net revenues" of the System were equal to at least 1.20 times the combined average annual principal and interest requirements on all Parity Revenue Obligations to be outstanding after the issuance of the proposed Additional Parity Obligations. In making a determination of such net revenues, the Certified Public Accountant may take into consideration a change in the rates and charges for services and facilities afforded by the System that became effective at least sixty (60) days prior to the last day of the period for which such net revenues are determined and, for purposes of satisfying such net revenues test, make a pro forma determination of such net revenues for the period of time covered by the certificate or report based upon such change in rates and charges as being in effect for the entire period covered by the certificate or report. The term "net revenues" as used in this Section 9.02 shall mean the gross revenues of the System after deduction of maintenance and operating expenses, but not deducting depreciation or expenditures which, under standard accounting practices, are classed as capital expenditures. (e) The Additional Parity Obligations are made to mature on February 15 or August IS, either or both, of each year in which they are scheduled to mature. a;',sM'MAR\W"NSSlU.,rDOCS\ORDNa..ozi' "1 'F 31
