Particular Covenants

on each and every bond issued under the provisions of this resolution at the place, on the dates
and in the manner provided herein and in said bonds and in the coupons appertaining thereto,
according to the true intent and meaning thereof. The principal and interest are payable solely
from the revenues derived from the ownership or operation of the Project, which revenues are hereby
pledged to the payment thereof in the manner and to the extent hereinabove particularly specified,
and nothing in the bonds or in this resolution shall be deemed to constitute the bonds a debt of the
State of Virginia or a pledge of the faith and credit of the State, nor shall the bonds ever be or
become a charge against the State of Virginia.

Section 602. The Board covenants that it will establish and enforce reasonable rules and
regulations governing the use of the Project and the operation thereof, that all compensation,
salaries, fees and wages paid by it in connection with the maintenance, repair and operation of the
Project will be reasonable, that it will maintain and operate the Project in an efficient and
economical manner, that, from the revenues of the Project, it will at all times maintain the same
in good repair and in sound operating condition and will make all necessary repairs, renewals and
replacements, that it will observe and perform all of the terms and conditions contained in the Act,
and that it will comply with all valid acts, rules, regulations, orders and directions of any
legislative, executive, administrative or judicial body applicable to the Project

Section 603. The Board covenants that it will not create or suffer to be created any lien or
charge upon the Project or any part thereof or upon the revenues therefrom ranking equally with or
prior to the lien and charge of the bonds secured hereby upon such revenues, and that, from such
revenues or other available funds, it will pay or cause to be discharged, or will make adequate
provision to satisfy and discharge, within sixty (60) days after the same shall accrue, all lawful
claims and demands for labor, material, supplies or other objects which, if unpaid, might by law
become a lien upon the Project or any part thereof or the revenues therefrom, provided, however, that
nothing in this Section contained shall require the Board to pay or cause to be discharged, or make
provision for, any such lien or charge so long as the validity thereof shall be contested in good
faith and by appropriate legal proceedings

Section 604. Notwithstanding any other provision of this resolution, nothing herein shall be
construed to prevent the Board from paying all or any part of the Current Expenses from any funds
available to the Board for such purpose, or from depositing any funds available to the Board for
such purpose in the Sinking Fund for the payment of the interest on or the principal of the bonds
issued under the provisions of this resolution


428

Section 605. The Board covenants that from and after the time when the contractors or any of
them engaged in constructing the Project or any part thereof shall cease to be responsible, pursuant
to the provisions of the respective contracts for the construction of the Project or such part, for
loss or damage to the Project or such part occurring from fire or lightning, it will insure and at
all times keep the Project or such part insured with a responsible insurance company or companies,
qualified to assume the risk thereof, against physical loss or damage caused by fire or lightning,
with such exceptions as are ordinarily required by insurers of structures or facilities of similar
type, in an amount not less than eighty per centum (80%) of the replacement value of the Project or
such part, less depreciation, provided, however, that such amount of insurance shall at all times be
sufficient to comply with any legal or contractual requirement which, if breached, would result in
assumption by the Board of a portion of any loss or damages as a co-insurer, and such insurance may
provide for the deduction from each claim for loss or damage (except in case of a total loss) of not
more than two per centum (2%) of the total amount of insurance required by the application of the
co-insurance clause, and provided, further, that if at any time the Board shall be unable to obtain
such insurance to the extent above required, either as to amount of such insurance or as to the risks
covered thereby or the deductible provision thereof, it will not constitute an event of default under
the provisions of this resolution if the Board shall carry such insurance to the extent reasonably
obtainable

The proceeds of such insurance shall be available for, and shall to the extent necessary be
applied to, the repair, replacement or reconstruction of the damaged or destroyed property. If such
proceeds are more than sufficient for such purpose, the balance remaining shall be deposited to the
credit of the Sinking Fund. If such proceeds, with other available funds, shall be insufficient for
such purpose, such proceeds shall be deposited to the credit of the Sinking Fund or shall be used
to purchase bonds, as the Board by resolution may determine.

Section 606. The Board covenants that no contract or contracts will be entered into or any
action taken by which the rights of the bondholders might be impaired or diminished

revenues. Such records shall be open at all reasonable times to the inspection of all interested
persons

of July after the close of any fiscal year, it will cause the Comptroller of the Institution to make
a report from the books and accounts relating to the Project for the preceding fiscal year. Within
the next two months copies of such report shall be filed with the Secretary to the Board and the State
Treasurer and shall be mailed by the Comptroller to all bondholders who shall have filed their names
and addresses with the Comptroller for such purpose. Each such report shall set forth in respect of
the preceding fiscal year an income and expense account for the Project, the details of all bonds
paid, the amount on deposit at the end of such fiscal year to the credit of each Fund created under
the provisions of this resolution and the details of any investment thereof, a schedule of all insurance
policies which are then in effect, stating with respect to each policy the name of the insurer, the
amount, number and expiration date, and the hazards and risks covered thereby, and also the findings
of the Comptroller as to whether the moneys received by the Board under the provisions of this resolution
during such fiscal year have been applied in accordance with the provisions of this resolution and
whether the Board is in default of any of the covenants contained in Sections 401 and 402 of this resolution

Section 608. The Board covenants that it will not sell or otherwise dispose of or encumber the
Project or any part thereof and will not create or permit to be created any charge or lien on the
revenues therefrom ranking equally with or prior to the charge or lien of the bonds secured hereby on
such revenues. The Board may, however, sell or dispose or permit the sale or disposal by the Institution
of any furniture, fixtures, apparatus, tools, instruments or other movable property acquired for or in
connection with the Project or any materials used in connection therewith, if the Board shall determine
by resolution that such articles are no longer needed or are no longer useful in connection with the
construction of the Project or the operation and maintenance of the Project. The proceeds of any sale
made under the authority of this Section shall be deposited to the credit of the Sinking Fund

resolution

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia that
the following person be and she is hereby elected to the faculty of Mary Washington College

Miss Margaret Nolan as Instructor in Health, Physical Education, and Recreation, for one

Miss Margery Arnold, Associate Professor of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation, for one

PURCHASE OF SUNKEN ROAD PROPERTY

The Bursar reported that the vacant property on Sunken Road, immediately opposite the entrance
to Brompton, has been recently sold to Mr. Russell Sullivan, who plans to construct an apartment
building on the property. This type of building, the Bursar stated, would present an unattractive
condition in this particular location because of the historic value of the property, which is
bounded on the Sunken Road side by the historic stone wall which was standing at the time of the
Civil War. The Director of the Budget was consulted to see if funds could be made available for the
purchase of the property. He authorized Mary Washington College to offer up to $15,000, to be paid
from the Governor's Contingency Fund, for the property, subject to the approval of the President of
the University and the Governor. The President of the University approved this proposed purchase

At the present time there is no definite commitment from the owner of the property that he will
sell the property. However, he has left the Bursar with the impression that he would accept $1,000
more than he had paid for the property, or about $14,200, provided he can obtain another location for
the construction of his proposed apartment building.

Accordingly, in the absence of the Chancellor, the Bursar proposed and the Board adopted the
following resolution

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia that
Mary Washington College be and it is hereby authorized to purchase the vacant property on Sunken
Road, immediately opposite the entrance to Brompton, for a sum not to exceed $15,000, subject to the
approval of the Governor, provided, however, that the form of the purchase agreement shall be subject
to the approval of Special Counsel of the University

CITY RESERVOIR

The Bursar reported that he has been informed by the City Attorney of Fredericksburg that the
contractual agreement for an easement to be granted to the City for the relocation of the City
Reservoir from its present location to a designated location on the College golf course was approved

Special Counsel has completed his review of the agreement, the instrument will then be ready for
the President's signature under the authority of the resolution adopted by the Board on 20 April
1963 (Minutes, Board of Visitors, University of Virginia, No. 12, 20 April 1963, p. 399).
