-14- SECTION 5.9. Maintenance and Operation of Water System in Efficient and Economical Manner. The City covenants and agrees to maintain and operate the Water System in an efficient and economical manner and to operate, maintain and preserve the Water System in good repair and working order. SECTION 5.10. Assignment and Amendment. The Authority and the City may at any time amend or modify any of the provisions of this Agreement, but only: (a) with the prior written consents of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds; or (b) without the consent of the Trustee or any of the Bond Owners, but only if such amendment or modification is for any one or more of the following purposes: (i) to add to the covenants and agreements of the City contained in this Agreement, other covenants and agreements thereafter to be observed, or to limit or surrender any rights or power herein reserved to or conferred upon the City; (ii) to make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or of curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained herein, to conform to the original intention of the City and the Authority; (iii) to modify, amend or supplement this Agreement in such manner as to assure that the interest on the Bonds remains excluded from gross income under the Tax Code (provided that this provision shall not apply to bonds the interest on which is intended to be included in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation); (iv) in any other respect whatsoever as the Authority and the City deem necessary or desirable, if in the opinion of Bond Counsel such modifications or amendments do not materially adversely affect the interests of the Owners of the Bonds; and (v) to provide for the issuance of Parity Debt pursuant to Section 5.8 hereof, including the addition of any provisions required with respect to Parity Debt relating to Variable Rate Bonds, and to Swap Agreements. No such modification or amendment may extend or have the effect of extending any Installment Payment Date or reducing any Installment Payment or any premium payable upon the prepayment thereof, without the express consent of the Owners of the affected Bonds, or modify any of the rights or obligations of the Trustee without its written assent thereto. SECTION 5.11. Continuing Disclosure. The City hereby covenants and agrees to comply with and carry out all of the provisions of each Continuing Disclosure Certificate, as originally executed as of the date of issuance and delivery of the Bonds, and as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, failure by the City to comply with the Continuing Disclosure Certificate shall not constitute a default hereunder or under the Indenture of Trust; provided, however, that any Participating Underwriter or any Owner or beneficial owner of the Bonds may take such action as may be necessary and appropriate to compel performance by the City of its obligations under this Section, including seeking mandamus or specific performance by court order.
