WHEREAS, Consultant is willing to perform such services in a professional manner as an independent contractor; and WHEREAS, City desires to engage Consultant to render the professional services in connection therewith, and Consultant is willing to provide such services; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual obligations herein, the parties hereto do hereby mutually AGREE as follows: SCOPE OF ENGAGEMENT Generally, Consultant will perform all usual and necessary legal services as Bond Counsel in connection with the authorization, issuance, and delivery of the Bonds as authorized and requested by City. Specifically, Consultant will prepare and direct the legal proceedings and perform the other necessary legal services with reference to the authorization, issuance and delivery of the Bonds, including the following: 1.Prepare all resolutions, ordinances, and other instruments pursuant to which theBonds will be authorized, issued, delivered and secured, including election proceedings, if necessary, in cooperation and upon consultation with the City Council, their consultants, and other legal and financial advisors and consultants of City 2 Attend meetings of the City Council with reference to the authorization and issuance of the Bonds to the extent required or requested. 2 of 11 DocuSign Envelope ID: 15B489A2-76D34FF5-AD39-0BF70C9B470A 3. 4. Cooperate with the City Council and all other interested parties in the sale of the Bonds to the purchasers, and review bond purchase agreements. Review those sections of any official statement to be disseminated in connection with the sale of the Bonds which describe the Bonds, the resolution or ordinance pursuant to which they will be issued and the tax-exempt treatment of the interest on the Bonds for purposes of federal income taxation. 5.If requested, assist City in presenting information to bond rating organizations and providers of credit enhancement relating to legal issues affecting the issuance ofthe Bonds. 6.Submit the Bond transcript to the Public Finance Division of the Attorney General’s office and obtain all necessary approvals. 7.Supervise the execution of the Bonds and the delivery thereof to the purchasers. 8.When so delivered, give Consultant's approving opinion covering the validity of the Bonds and the exemption of interest thereon from federal income taxes, it being understood that the approving opinion will be fully acceptable nationally in regular commercial investment banking bond marketing channels. Consultant services as Bond Counsel do not include any responsibility for investigating the financial condition and affairs of City. Consultant's approving legal opinion as Bond Counsel will contain a paragraph substantially to the effect that Consultant has acted as Bond Counsel for City for the sole purpose of rendering an opinion with respect to the legality and validity of theBonds under the Constitution and laws of the State of Texas, and with respect to the exemption of the interest on the Bonds from federal income taxes, and for no other reason or purpose. The paragraph will also disclose that Consultant has not been requested to investigate or verify, andhave not investigated or verified, any records, data, or other material relating to the financial condition or capabilities of City, and has not assumed any responsibility with respect thereto. ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP Upon execution of this engagement letter, City will be Consultant's client and an attorney- client relationship will exist between City and Consultant. Consultant further assume that all other parties in a Bond transaction understand that Consultant represents only City in the transaction, Consultant is not counsel to any other party, and Consultant is not acting as an intermediary among the parties. Consultant services as Bond Counsel are limited to those contracted for in this Contract; City's execution of this Contract will constitute an acknowledgment of those limitations. Consultant's representation of City will not affect, however, Consultant’s responsibility to render an objective bond approving opinion described in paragraph 7 above. 3 of 11 DocuSign Envelope ID: 15B489A2-76D34FF5-AD39-0BF70C9B470A INDEMNITY AND INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR RELATIONSHIP Consultant shall perform all services as an independent contractor not under the direct supervision and control of City. Nothing herein shall be construed as creating a relationship of employer and employee between the parties. City and Consultant agree to cooperate in the defense of any claims, actions, suits, or proceedings of any kind brought by a third party which may result from or directly or indirectly arise from any negligence and/or errors or omissions on the part of Consultant, or from any breach of Consultant’s obligations under this Contract. In the event any litigation or claim is brought under this Contract in which City is joined as a party, Consultant shall provide suitable counsel to defend City and Consultant against such claim; provided however, that City shall have the right to proceed with competent counsel of its own choosing. Consultant agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless City and all of its officers, attorneys, agents, servants, and employees against any and all such claims to the extent not otherwise covered by Consultant's professional liability policy. Consultant agrees to pay all expenses, including but not limited to attorney fees, and satisfy all judgments that arise under such third party claims, but are not otherwise satisfied by Consultant's professional liability insurance policy. Nothing herein constitutes a waiver of any rights or remedies City may have to pursue under either law or equity, including, without limitation, a cause of action for specific performance or for damages, a loss to City resulting from Consultant's negligent errors or omissions, or breach of contract, and all such rights and remedies are expressly reserved. Consultant shall maintain and shall be caused to be in force at all times during the term of this Contract, a legally binding policy of professional liability insurance, issued by an insurance carrier approved to do business in the State of Texas by the State Insurance Commission, which carrier must be rated by Best Rated Carriers, with a rating of "A" or higher. Such coverage shall cover any claim hereunder occasioned by Consultant's negligent professional act and/or error or omission, in an amount not less than $500,000 combined single limit coverage occurrence. In the event of change or cancellation of the policy by the insurer, Consultant hereby covenants to immediately advise City thereof; and in such event, Consultant shall, prior to the effective date of change or cancellation, serve a substitute policy furnishing the same coverage to City. Consultant shall provide a copy of such policy and the declarations page of the existing policy to City through its City Attorney, simultaneously with the execution of this Contract. FIRM NOT A MUNICIPAL ADVISOR As a consequence of the adoption of Rule 15Bal-1 pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Municipal Advisor Rule"), which has been promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission as a result of the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), Consultant hereby informs City that Consultant is not a "Municipal Advisor" within the meaning of the Municipal Advisor Rule or the Dodd-Frank Act (collectively, the "MA Rule"). In the course of performing Consultant’s services as Bond Counsel in a transaction, Consultant may engage in analysis, discussion, negotiation, and advice 4 of 11 DocuSign Envelope ID: 15B489A2-76D34FF5-AD39-0BF70C9B470A to City regarding the legal ramifications of the structure, timing, terms, and other provisions of the financial transaction that culminates with the planned issuance of the Bonds, and such services and advice may be essential to the development of the plan of finance for the issuance of the Bonds. In turn, these services become, among other things, the basis for the transaction's basic legal documents, the preparation and delivery of the official statement or any other disclosure document that describes the material terms and provisions of the transaction, if an offering document is used in the offering of the Bonds, the preparation of the various closing Bonds that embody the terms and provisions of this transaction and the preparation and delivery of Consultant's legal opinion. Moreover, legal advice and services of a traditional legal nature in the area of municipal finance inherently involve a financial advice component, but Consultant hereby advises City that while Consultant has expertise with respect to the legal aspects relating to the issuance of municipalsecurities, Consultant is not a "financial advisor" or "financial expert" in a manner that would subject us to the provisions of the MA Rule. As Bond Counsel, Consultant provides only legal advice, not purely financial advice that is not inherent in Consultant's legal advice to City. The City should seek the advice of its financial advisor with respect to the financial aspects of the issuance of the Bonds. By signing this Contract, City acknowledges receipt of this information,and evidences its understanding of the limitations of Consultant's role to City as Bond Counsel with respect to the MA Rule, as discussed in this paragraph. CONFLICTS As City is aware, Consultant represents many political subdivisions and investment banking firms, among others, who do business with political subdivisions. It is possible that during the time that Consultant is representing City, one or more of Consultant's present or future clients will have transactions with City. It is also possible that Consultant may be asked to represent, in an unrelatedmatter, one or more of the entities involved in the issuance of the Bonds. Consultant does not believe such representation, if it occurs, will adversely affect Consultant's ability to represent City as provided in this letter, either because such matters will be sufficiently different from the issuance of the Bonds so as to make such representations not adverse to Consultant's representation of City, or because the potential for such adversity is remote or minor and outweighed by the consideration that it is unlikely that advice given to the other client will be relevant to any aspect of the issuance of the Bonds. Execution of this Contract will signify City's consent to Consultant’s representation of others consistent with the circumstances described in this paragraph. FEES AND OTHER SERVICES The fee covering the legal services of Consultant, as Bond Counsel, for the issuance of traditional Bonds of City, such as general obligation bonds, certificates of obligation and utility system revenue bonds, in one or more installments, is as follows: $5,000 for the first $1,000,000 of Bonds; $ 1.00 per $1,000 of Bonds for the next $9,000,000 of Bonds; $0.95 per $1,000 of Bonds for the next $30,000,000 of Bonds; 5 of 11 DocuSign Envelope ID: 15B489A2-76D34FF5-AD39-0BF70C9B470A $0.90 per $1,000 of Bonds for the next $60,000,000 of Bonds; and $0.50 per $1,000 of Bonds thereafter. For special Bond issuances, such as special assessment revenue bonds, fees for legal services will be set at an amount agreed upon by Consultant and City at such time the bond issuance is contemplated. Also, Consultant would expect to be reimbursed for Consultant's actual out-of-pocket expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred in connection with the authorization, issuance, and delivery of such Bonds, i.e. travel, photocopies, courier, Form 8038G filing, Texas Bond Review Board filing and the Attorney General’s filing fee. Consultant's fees and expenses will be payable within 30 days after the delivery of and payment for such Bonds, but Consultant's fees are wholly contingent upon actual delivery of suchBonds. The foregoing legal services as Bond Counsel do not include any direct responsibility for any kind of litigation. However, if during the issuance of Bonds any litigation should developregarding the issuance of the Bonds or the provisions made for their payment or security, Consultant will consult, advise, and cooperate with City and its attorneys concerning any such litigation. Consultant's fees for such services would be based upon the customary hourly billing rates of the attorneys providing such additional services. The firm will undertake upon the request of City such services as may be necessary to assist City in satisfying the continuing disclosure requirements of Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by theSecurities and Exchange Commission or any necessary disclosure obligations of City in connection with the issuance of Bonds. Consultant's fees for such services would be based upon hourly billing rates of the attorneys providing such services, and such rates shall be $375.00 per hour for partners and $275 per hour for associates. Should it be necessary for Consultant to render a written opinion with respect to such matters, such fee for legal services provided in connection with the delivery of the opinion will be set at an amount agreed upon by us and City. The parties anticipate invoices or statements for services billed at hourly rates will be generated on a monthly basis and that said invoices or statements will be sent on or about the lst day of each month. City shall make payment to Bond Counsel within 30 days of the satisfactorycompletion of services and receipt of an itemized invoice or statement. All reimbursable expenses, including, but not necessarily limited to travel, lodging, and meals shall be paid at the actual cost, pursuant to the terms, conditions, and limitations hereinabove set forth.

You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below. Withdrawing your consent If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically is described below. Consequences of changing your mind If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must withdraw your consent using the DocuSign 'Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of your DocuSign account. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use your DocuSign Express user account to receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents from us. All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide electronically to you through your DocuSign user account all required notices, disclosures, authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures electronically from us.
