The Borough hereby covenants that it will not make any use of the proceeds of sale of the Refunding Bonds and any other funds of the Borough which may be deemed to be proceeds of such Refunding Bonds pursuant to Section 103(d) of the Internal Revenue Code and the applicable regulations thereunder which, if such use had been reasonably expected on the date of delivery of the Refunding Bonds to the initial purchasers thereof, would have caused the Refunding Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of said section and said regulations. The Borough will comply with the requirements of subsection (d) of Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code and the applicable regulations thereunder throughout the term of the Refunding Bonds. 1 1 10 This Assembly hereby finds and determines that the issuance and sale of the Refunding Bonds at this time will effect a saving to the Borough and its taxpayers.
