Thereafter, neither the Corporation, the Paying Agent/Registrar nor any other person shall be liable or responsible to any Owners of such Bonds for any further payment of such unclaimed moneys or on account of any such Bonds, subject to Title 6, Texas Property Code. ARTICLE XIV CONTINUING DISCLOSURE UNDERTAKING Section 14.01. Continuing_ Disclosure Agreement. The offering of the Bonds qualifies for the Rule 15c2 -12(d)(2) exemption from Rule 15c2 -12(b)(5) regarding the Corporation's continuing disclosure obligations, because the Corporation has not issued more than $10,000,000 in aggregate amount of outstanding municipal securities (excluding securities offered in transactions that were exempt from the Rule) and no person is committed by contract or other arrangement with respect to payment of the Bonds. Pursuant to the exemption, in the Resolution, the Corporation has made the following agreement for the benefit of the holders and beneficial owners of the Bonds. The Corporation is required to observe the agreement for so long as it remains an "obligated person" with respect to the Bonds, within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule"). Under the agreement, the Corporation will be obligated to provide certain updated financial information and operating data annually, and timely notice of specified events, to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the "MSRB"). -36- #4937609.6 Section 14.02. Annual Reports. (a) The Corporation will provide to the MSRB certain updated financial information and operating data which is customarily prepared by the Corporation and is publicly available on an annual basis. The information to be provided is the Town's Annual Audited Financial Report. The Corporation will update and provide this information within six months after the end of each Fiscal Year. The financial information and operating data to be provided may be set forth in full in one or more documents or may be included by specific reference to any document available to the public on the MSRB's Internet Web site or filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), as permitted by the Rule. The updated information will include audited financial statements, if the Town commissions an audit and it is completed by the required time. If audited financial statements are not available by the required time, the Corporation will provide unaudited financial information by the required time and audited financial statements when and if such audited financial statements become available. Any such financial statements will be prepared in accordance with the accounting principles described in Appendix D or such or such other accounting principles as the Corporation may be required to employ from time to time pursuant to State law or regulation. (b) If the Town or Corporation changes its Fiscal Year, it will notify the MSRB of the change (and of the date of the new Fiscal Year end) prior to the next date by which the Town or Corporation otherwise would be required to provide financial information and operating data pursuant to this Section. (c) The financial information and operating data to be provided pursuant to this Section may be set forth in full in one or more documents or may be included by specific reference to any document (including an official statement or other offering document, if it is available from the MSRB) that theretofore has been provided to the MSRB or filed with the SEC. Section 14.03. Disclosure Event Notices. (a) The Corporation shall notify the MSRB, in a timely manner not in excess of ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence of the event, of any of the following events with respect to the Bonds: (i) Principal and interest payment delinquencies; (ii) Non-payment related defaults, if material; (iii) Unscheduled draws on debt service reserves reflecting financial difficulties; (iv) Unscheduled draws on credit enhancements reflecting financial difficulties; (v) Substitution of credit or liquidity providers, or their failure to perform; -37- #4937609.6 (vi) Adverse tax opinions, the issuance by the Internal Revenue Service of proposed or final determinations of taxability, Notices of Proposed Issue (IRS Form 5701-TEB) or other material notices or determinations with respect to the tax status of the Bonds, or other material events affecting the tax status of the Bonds; (vii) Modifications to rights of holders of the Bonds, if material; (viii) Bond calls, if material, and tender offers; (ix) Defeasances; (x) Release, substitution, or sale of property securing repayment of the Bonds, if material; (xi) Rating changes; (xii) Bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar event of the Corporation;��� (xiii) The consummation of a merger, consolidation, or acquisition involving the Town or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, other than in the ordinary course of business, the entry into a definitive agreement to undertake such an action or the termination of a definitive agreement relating to any such actions, other than pursuant to its terms, if material; and (xiv) Appointment of a successor Paying Agent/Registrar or change in the name of the Paying Agent/Registrar, if material. (b) The Corporation shall notify the MSRB, in a timely manner, of any failure by the Corporation to provide financial information or operating data in accordance with Section 14.02 of this Resolution by the time required by such Section. Section 14.04. Limitations, Disclaimers and Amendments. (a) The Corporation and the Town shall be obligated to observe and perform the covenants specified in this Article for so long as, but only for so long as, the Corporation and the Town remain an "obligated person" with respect to the Bonds within the meaning of the Rule, except that the Corporation in any event will give notice of any deposit made in accordance with Article XII that causes Bonds no longer to be Outstanding. (1) For the purposes of the event identified in (xii), the event is considered to occur when any of the following occur: the appointment of a receiver, fiscal agent, or similar officer for an obligated person in a proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or in any other proceeding under state or federal law in which a court or governmental authority has assumed jurisdiction over substantially all of the assets or business of the obligated person, or if such jurisdiction has been assumed by leaving the existing governing body and officials or officers in possession but subject to the supervision and orders of a court or governmental authority, or the entry of an order confirming a plan of reorganization, arrangement, or liquidation by a court or governmental authority having supervision or jurisdiction over substantially all of the assets or business of the obligated person. -38- #4937609.6 (b) The provisions of this Article are for the sole benefit of the Owners and beneficial owners of the Bonds, and nothing in this Article, express or implied, shall give any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim hereunder to any other person. The Corporation undertakes to provide only the financial information, operating data, financial statements, and notices which it has expressly agreed to provide pursuant to this Article and does not hereby undertake to provide any other information that may be relevant or material to a complete presentation of the Corporation's financial results, condition, or prospects or hereby undertake to update any information provided in accordance with this Article or otherwise, except as expressly provided herein. The Corporation does not make any representation or warranty concerning such information or its usefulness to a decision to invest in or sell Bonds at any future date. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE CORPORATION OR THE TOWN BE LIABLE TO THE OWNER OR BENEFICIAL OWNER OF ANY BOND OR ANY OTHER PERSON, IN CONTRACT OR TORT, FOR DAMAGES RESULTING IN WHOLE OR IN PART FROM ANY BREACH BY THE CORPORATION OR THE TOWN, WHETHER NEGLIGENT OR WITHOUT FAULT ON ITS PART, OF ANY COVENANT SPECIFIED IN THIS ARTICLE, BUT EVERY RIGHT AND REMEDY OF ANY SUCH PERSON, IN CONTRACT OR TORT, FOR OR ON ACCOUNT OF ANY SUCH BREACH SHALL BE LIMITED TO AN ACTION FOR MANDAMUS OR SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. (c) No default by the Corporation in observing or performing its obligations under this Article shall comprise a breach of or default under the Resolution for purposes of any other provisions of this Resolution. (d) Nothing in this Article is intended or shall act to disclaim, waive, or otherwise limit the duties of the Corporation under federal and state securities laws. (e) The provisions of this Article may be amended by the Corporation from time to time to adapt to changed circumstances that arise from a change in legal requirements, a change in law, or a change in the identity, nature, status, or type of operations of the Corporation, but only if (1) the provisions of this Article, as so amended, would have permitted an underwriter to purchase or sell Bonds in the primary offering of the Bonds in compliance with the Rule, taking into account any amendments or interpretations of the Rule to the date of such amendment, as well as such changed circumstances, and (2) either (a) the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount (or any greater amount required by any other provisions of this Resolution that authorizes such an amendment) of the outstanding Bonds consent to such amendment or (b) a person that is unaffiliated with the Corporation (such as nationally recognized bond counsel) determines that such amendment will not materially impair the interests of the Owners and beneficial owners of the Bonds. If the Corporation so amends the provisions of this Article, it shall include with any amended financial information or operating data next provided in accordance with Section 14.02 an explanation, in narrative form, of the reasons for the amendment and of the impact of any change in the type of financial information or operating data so provided. -39- #4937609.6 ARTICLE XV AMENDMENTS Section 15.01. Amendments. This Resolution shall constitute a contract with the Owners, be binding on the Corporation, and shall not be amended or repealed by the Corporation so long as any Bond remains outstanding except as permitted in this Section. The Corporation may, without consent of or notice to any Owners, from time to time and at any time, amend this Resolution in any manner not detrimental to the interests of the Owners, including the curing of any ambiguity, inconsistency, or formal defect or omission herein. In addition, the Corporation may, with the written consent of the Owners of the Bonds holding a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding and the Insurer, amend, add to, or rescind any of the provisions of this Resolution; provided that, without the consent of all Owners of outstanding Bonds, no such amendment, addition, or rescission shall (i) extend the time or times of payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds, reduce the principal amount thereof, the redemption price, or the rate of interest thereon, or in any other way modify the terms of payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds, (ii) give any preference to any Bond over any other Bond, or (iii) reduce the aggregate principal amount of Bonds required to be held by Owners for consent to any such amendment, addition, or rescission.

Such changes, if any, shall be provided to the Board Secretary and the Board Secretary shall insert such changes into this Resolution as if approved on the date hereof. ARTICLE XVI INSURANCE PROVISIONS Section 16.01. Rights of AGM. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Resolution or in the Pricing Certificate, so long as AGM is not then in default under the Policy, AGM shall have the following rights; provided that to the extent that AGM has made any payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds it shall retain its rights of subrogation under this Agreement and the Policy: (a) The prior written consent of AGM shall be a condition precedent to the deposit of any Credit Facility provided in lieu of a cash deposit into the Reserve Fund pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Resolution. (b) The Insurer shall be deemed to be the sole holder of the Insured Bonds for the purpose of exercising any voting right or privilege or giving any consent or direction or taking any other action that the holders of the Bonds insured by it are entitled to take pursuant to the Resolution pertaining to (i) defaults and remedies and (ii) the duties and obligations of the Paying Agent. In furtherance thereof and as a term of the Resolution and each Bond, each -40- #4937609.6 Bondholder appoints the Insurer as their agent and attorney-in-fact and agree that the Insurer may at any time during the continuation of any proceeding by or against the District under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, rehabilitation or similar law (an "Insolvency Proceeding") direct all matters relating to such Insolvency Proceeding, including without limitation, (A) all matters relating to any claim or enforcement proceeding in connection with an Insolvency Proceeding (a "Claim"), (B) the direction of any appeal of any order relating to any Claim, (C) the posting of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal, and (D) the right to vote to accept or reject any plan of adjustment. In addition, the Paying Agent and each Bondholder delegate and assign to the Insurer, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the rights of the Paying Agent and each Bondholder in the conduct of any Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary proceeding or action with respect to any court order issued in connection with any such Insolvency Proceeding. Remedies granted to the Bondholders shall expressly include mandamus. (c) No grace period for a covenant default under the Resolution shall exceed 60 days without the prior written consent of AGM. No grace period shall be permitted for payment defaults. (d) AGM shall be a third party beneficiary to the Resolution. (e) Any amendment, supplement, modification to, or waiver of, the Resolution, or any other transaction document, including any underlying security agreement (each a "Related Document"), that requires the consent of Bondholders or adversely affects the rights and interests of the Insurer shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Insurer. (f) The rights granted to AGM pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or under the Resolution or any other Related Document to request, consent to or direct any action are rights granted to AGM in consideration of its issuance of the Policy. Any exercise by AGM of such rights is merely an exercise of AGM's contractual rights and shall not be construed or deemed to be taken for the benefit, or on behalf, of the Bondholders and such action does not evidence any position of AGM, positive or negative, as to whether the consent of the Bond owners or any other person is required in addition to the consent of AGM. (g) AGM shall, to the extent it makes any payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds, become subrogated to the rights of the recipients of such payments in accordance with the terms of the Policy. Each obligation of the District to AGM under the Related Documents shall survive discharge or termination of the Related Documents. (h) AGM shall be entitled to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds that shall become Due for Payment but shall be unpaid by reason of Nonpayment by the District (as such terms are defined in the Policy), whether or not AGM has received a Notice of Nonpayment (as such term is defined in the Policy) or a claim upon the Policy. (i) In determining whether any amendment, consent, waiver or other action to be taken, or any failure to take action, under the Resolution would adversely affect the security for -41- #4937609.6 the Bonds or the rights of the holders of the Bonds, the Paying Agent shall consider the effect of any such amendment, consent, waiver, action or inaction as if there were no Policy. (j) The District shall pay or reimburse AGM, to the extent permitted by law, any and all charges, fees, costs and expenses which AGM may reasonably pay or incur in connection with (i) the administration, enforcement, defense or preservation of any rights or security in any Related Document; (ii) the pursuit of remedies by AGM, under the Resolution, the Pricing Certificate, this Agreement or any other Related Document; (iii) any amendment, consent, waiver or other action with respect, or related to, the Resolution, the Pricing Certificate, this Agreement or any other Related Document whether or not executed or completed; or (iv) any litigation or other dispute in connection with the Resolution, the Pricing Certificate, this Agreement or any other Related Document or the transactions contemplated thereby, other than costs resulting from the failure of AGM to honor its obligations under the Policy. AGM reserves the right to charge a reasonable fee as a condition to executing any amendment, waiver or consent proposed in respect of the Resolution or any other Related Document. Section 16.02. Claims Upon the Policy and Payments by AGM. Unless otherwise provided in the Policy, the following shall govern claims made upon and payments made under the Policy: (a) If, on the third Business Day prior to the related scheduled interest payment date or principal payment date ("Payment Date") there is not on deposit with the Paying Agent, after making all transfers and deposits required under the Resolution, moneys sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds due on such Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall give notice to AGM and to its designated agent, if any ("AGM's Fiscal Agent"), by telephone or telecopy of the amount of such deficiency by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such Business Day. If, on the second Business Day prior to the related Payment Date, there continues to be a deficiency in the amount available to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds due on such Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall make a claim under the Policy and give notice to AGM and AGM's Fiscal Agent, if any, by telephone of the amount of the deficiency, and the allocation of such deficiency between the amount required to pay interest on the Bonds and the amount required to pay principal of the Bonds, confirmed in writing to AGM and AGM's Fiscal Agent, if any, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such second Business Day by filling in the form of Notice of Claim and Certificate delivered with the Policy. (b) The Paying Agent shall designate any portion of payment of principal on Bonds paid by AGM, whether by virtue of mandatory sinking fund redemption, maturity or other advancement of maturity, on its books as a reduction in the principal amount of Bonds registered to the then current holders of such Bonds, whether DTC or its nominee or otherwise, and shall issue a replacement Bond to AGM, registered in the name of Assured Guaranty Municipal Corp., in a principal amount equal to the amount of principal so paid (without regard to authorized denominations); provided, however, that the Paying Agent's failure to so designate any payment or issue any replacement Bond shall have no effect on the amount of principal or interest payable by AGM on any Bond or the subrogation rights of AGM. (c) The Paying Agent shall keep a complete and accurate record of all funds deposited by AGM into the Policy Payments Account (defined below) and the allocation of such -42- #4937609.6 funds to payment of interest on and principal of any Bond. AGM shall have the right to inspect such records at reasonable times upon reasonable notice to the Paying Agent. (d) Upon payment of a claim under the Policy, the Paying Agent shall establish a separate special purpose trust account for the benefit of the holders of the Bonds (referred to in this Agreement as the "Policy Payments Account") and over which the Paying Agent shall have exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal. The Paying Agent shall receive any amount paid under the Policy in trust on behalf of the holders of the Bonds and shall deposit any such amount in the Policy Payments Account and distribute such amount only for purposes of making the payments for which a claim was made. Such amounts shall be disbursed by the Paying Agent to the holders of the Bonds in the same manner as principal and interest payments are to be made with respect to the Bonds under the sections of the Resolution regarding payment of Bonds. It shall not be necessary for such payments to be made by checks or wire transfers separate from the check or wire transfer used to pay debt service with other funds available to make such payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, the District agrees to pay to AGM (i) a sum equal to the total of all amounts paid by AGM under the Policy (the "Insurer Advances"); and (ii) interest on such Insurer Advances from the date paid by AGM until the date such Insurer Advances are paid in full, payable to AGM at the Late Payment Rate per annum (collectively, the "Insurer Reimbursement Amounts"). "Late Payment Rate" means the lesser of (a) the greater of (i) the per annum rate of interest publicly announced from time to time by JPMorgan Chase Bank at its principal office in the City of New York as its prime or base lending rate (any change in such rate of interest to be effective on the date such change is announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank, or its successor) plus three percent (3%), and (ii) the then applicable highest rate of interest on the Bonds and (b) the maximum rate permissible under applicable usury or similar laws limiting interest rates. The Late Payment Rate shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the District hereby covenants and agrees that the Insurer Advances are secured by a lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues and the amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts established under the Resolution and payable from such amounts on a parity with debt service due on the Bonds. (e) Funds held in the Policy Payments Account shall not be invested by the Paying Agent and may not be applied to satisfy any costs, expenses or liabilities of the Paying Agent. Any funds remaining in the Policy Payments Account following a Payment Date shall promptly be remitted to AGM. (f) Amounts paid by AGM under the Policy shall not be deemed paid for purposes of the Resolution and the Bonds relating to such payments shall remain Outstanding and continue to be due and owing until paid by the District in accordance with the Resolution. The Resolution shall not be discharged unless all amounts due or to become due to AGM have been paid in full or duly provided for. (g) After payment of reasonable expenses of the Paying Agent, the application of funds realized upon default shall be applied to the payment of expenses of the District or rebate only after the payment of past due and current debt service on the Bonds and amounts required to restore the Reserve Fund to the Required Reserve. -43- 44937609.6 Section 16.03. Defeasance of Bonds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Resolution, so long as AGM is not then in default under the Policy, the following shall apply to the defeasance of the Bonds: (a) Only (i) cash, (ii) non -callable direct obligations of the United States of America ("Treasuries"), (iii) evidences of ownership of proportionate interests in future interest and principal payments on Treasuries held by a bank or trust company as custodian, under which the owner of the investment is the real party in interest and has the right to proceed directly and individually against the obligor and the underlying Treasuries are not available to any person claiming through the custodian or to whom the custodian may be obligated, (iv) subject to the prior written consent of AGM, pre -refunded municipal obligations rated "AAA" and "Aaa" by S&P and Moody's, respectively, (v) subject to the prior written consent of AGM, securities eligible for "AAA" defeasance under then existing criteria of S&P or (vi) any combination of the foregoing, shall be authorized to be used to effect defeasance of the Bonds, unless AGM otherwise approves. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any obligations or securities utilized for the defeasance of the Bonds shall also be required to satisfy the requirements of Section 1207.062, Texas Government Code, as amended. (b) To accomplish defeasance, the District shall cause to be delivered (i) a report of an independent firm of nationally recognized certified public accountants or such other accountant as shall be acceptable to AGM verifying the sufficiency of the escrow established to pay the Bonds in full on the maturity or redemption date ("Verification"), (ii) an Escrow Agreement (which shall be acceptable in form and substance to AGM), and (iii) an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel to the effect that the Bonds are no longer "Outstanding" under the Resolution; each Verification and defeasance opinion shall be acceptable in form and substance, and addressed to, the District and AGM. AGM shall be provided with final drafts of the above referenced documentation not less than five (5) Business Days prior to funding of the escrow. (c) Bonds shall be deemed "Outstanding" under the Resolution unless and until they are in fact paid and retired or the above criteria set forth in this Section 4 have been met. Section 16.04. Covenants of the District. So long as AGM is not then in default under the Policy, the District covenants and agrees as follows: (a) The District shall take such action (including, as applicable, filing of UCC financing statements and continuations of such filings, to the extent required under Texas law) as is necessary from time to time to preserve the priority of the pledge of the Pledged Revenues under applicable law. (b) AGM shall be provided with the following information: (i) Annual audited financial statements of the District within 180 days after the end of the District's Fiscal Year, together with such other information, data or reports as AGM shall reasonably request from time to time; (ii) Notice of any draw upon the Reserve Fund within two (2) Business Days after knowledge of such draw other than (a) withdrawals of amounts in excess of the -44- #4937609.6 Required Reserve Amount and (b) withdrawals in connection with a refunding of any bonds issued under the Resolution; (iii) Notice of any default known to the Paying Agent or the Corporation within five (5) Business Days after knowledge of such default; (iv) Prior notice of the advance refunding or redemption of any of the Bonds, including the principal amount, maturities and CUSIP numbers of such Bonds; (v) Notice of the resignation or removal of the Paying Agent and the appointment of, and acceptance of duties by, any successor Paying Agent; (vi) Notice of the commencement of any proceeding by or against the District commenced under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, rehabilitation or similar law (an "Insolvency Proceeding"); (vii) Notice of the making of any claim in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding seeking the avoidance as a preferential transfer of any payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Bonds; (viii) A full original transcript of all proceedings relating to the execution of any amendment, supplement, or waiver to the Related Documents; (ix) All reports, notices and correspondence to be delivered to the holders of the Bonds under the terms of the Related Documents; and (x) In addition, to the extent that the District has entered into a continuing disclosure agreement, covenant or undertaking with respect to the Bonds, all information furnished pursuant to such agreements shall also be provided to AGM, simultaneously with the furnishing of such information. (c) AGM shall have the right to receive such additional information as it may reasonably request. (d) The Corporation will permit AGM to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Corporation or any information AGM may reasonably request regarding the security for the Bonds with appropriate officers of the Corporation and will use commercially reasonable efforts to enable AGM to have access to the facilities, books and records of the Corporation on any business day upon reasonable prior notice. (e) The Corporation shall notify AGM of any failure of the Corporation to provide notices, certificates and other information under the transaction documents. (f) Notwithstanding satisfaction of the other conditions to the issuance of additional bonds set forth in the Resolution, no such issuance may occur (1) if an Event of Default (or any event which, once all notice or grace periods have passed, would constitute an Event of Default) exists unless such default shall be cured upon such issuance and (2) unless the Reserve Fund is -45- #4937609.6 fully funded at the Required Reserve (including the proposed issue) upon the issuance of such additional bonds, in either case unless otherwise permitted by AGM. (g) No contract shall be entered into or any action taken by which the rights of AGM or security for or sources of payment of the Bonds may be impaired or prejudiced in any material respect except upon obtaining the prior written consent of AGM. (h) Any interest rate exchange agreement ("Swap Agreement") entered into by the Corporation, secured by and payable from Pledged Revenues, shall meet the following conditions: (i) the Swap Agreement must be entered into to manage interest costs related to, or a hedge against (a) assets then held, or (b) debt then outstanding, or (iii) debt reasonably expected to be issued within the next twelve (12) months; and (ii) the Swap Agreement shall not contain any leverage element or multiplier component greater than 1.Ox unless there is a matching hedge arrangement which effectively off -sets the exposure from any such element or component. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by AGM, any uninsured net settlement, breakage or other termination amount then in effect shall be subordinate to debt service on the Bonds and on any debt on parity with the Bonds. The Corporation shall not terminate a Swap Agreement unless it demonstrates to the satisfaction of AGM prior to the payment of any such termination amount that such payment will not cause the Corporation to be in default under the Related Documents, including but not limited to, any monetary obligations thereunder. All counterparties or guarantors to any Swap Agreement must have a rating of at least "A-" and "A3" by Standard & Poor's ("S&P") and Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"). If the counterparty or guarantor's rating falls below "A-" or "A3" by either S&P or Moody's, the counterparty or guarantor shall execute a credit support annex to the Swap Agreement, which credit support annex shall be acceptable to AGM. If the counterparty or the guarantor's long term unsecured rating falls below "Baal" or "BBB+" by either Moody's or S&P, a replacement counterparty or guarantor, acceptable to AGM, shall be required. Section 16.05, Notices. Except as otherwise provided, any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given to AGM in this Agreement shall be in writing or by telex or facsimile transmission, or by telephone with subsequent written confirmation, and may be personally served or sent by United States mail, first class postage prepaid, and shall be deemed to have been given upon receipt by the party notified.
