BY-LAW NUMBER 2021-033
A BY-LAW OF THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF ORO-MEDONTE TO
AUTHORIZE THE BORROWING UPON AMORTIZING DEBENTURES IN THE PRINCIPAL
AMOUNT OF $6,500,000.00 TOWARDS THE COST OF ROAD WORK AND BRIDGE WORK
WHEREAS subsection 401 (1) of the Municipal Act, 2001, as amended (the
"Act") provides that a municipality may incur a debt for municipal purposes, whether by
borrowing money or in any other way, and may issue debentures and prescribed financial
instruments and enter prescribed financial agreements for or in relation to the debt;
WHEREAS subsection 408 (2.1) of the Act provides that a municipality may issue
a debenture or other financial instrument for long-term borrowing only to provide financing for
a capital work;
WHEREAS the Council of The Corporation of The Township of Oro-Medonte (the
"Municipality") has passed the By-law(s) enumerated in column (1) of Schedule "A" attached
hereto and forming part of this By-law to authorize the capital work(s) described in column (2)
of Schedule "A" (the "Capital Work(s)"), to authorize the long-term borrowing from Ontario
Infrastructure and Lands Corporation ("OILC") in respect of the Capital Work(s) and to confirm,
ratify and approve the execution by the Treasurer of the application to OILC for financing the
Capital Work (the "Application") and the submission by such authorized official of the
Application; and to execute and deliver to OILC the rate offer letter agreement in respect of
such long-term borrowing for the Capital Work(s);
WHEREAS before authorizing the Capital Work(s) and before authorizing any
additional cost amount and any additional debenture authority in respect thereof (if any) the
Council of the Municipality had its Treasurer calculate an updated limit in respect of its most
recent annual debt and financial obligation limit received from the Ministry of Municipal Affairs
and Housing in accordance with the applicable regulation and, prior to the Council of the
Municipality authorizing the Capital Work(s), each such additional cost amount and each such
additional debenture authority (if any) the Treasurer determined that the estimated annual
amount payable in respect of the Capital Work(s), each such additional cost amount and each
such additional debenture authority (if any) would not cause the Municipality to exceed the
updated limit and that the approval of the Capital Work(s), each such additional cost amount
and each such additional debenture authority (if any) by the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal
pursuant to such regulation was not required;
WHEREAS the Municipality has submitted the Application to OILC and the
Application has been approved;
AND WHEREAS to provide long-term financing for the Capital Work(s) it is now
deemed to be expedient to borrow money by the issue of amortizing debentures in the
aggregate principal amount of $6,500,000.00 dated March 15, 2021 and maturing on March
15, 2031, and payable in semi-annual instalments of combined principal and interest on the
fifteenth day of September and on the fifteenth day of March in each of the years 2021 to 2031,
both inclusive on the terms hereinafter set forth;
NOW THEREFORE THE COUNCIL OF THE CORPORATION OF THE
TOWNSHIP OF ORO-MEDONTE ENACTS AS FOLLOWS:
THAT for the Capital Work(s), the borrowing upon the credit of the Municipality at
large of the aggregate principal amount of $6,500,000.00 and the issue of amortizing
debentures therefor to be repaid in semi-annual instalments of combined principal
and interest as hereinafter set forth, are hereby authorized.
2. THAT the Mayor and the Treasurer of the Municipality are hereby authorized to cause
any number of amortizing debentures to be issued for such amounts of money as
may be required for the Capital Work(s) in definitive form, not exceeding in total the
said aggregate principal amount of $6,500,000.00 (the "Debentures"). The
Debentures shall bear the Municipality's municipal seal and the signatures of Mayor
and the Treasurer of the Municipality, all in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
The municipal seal of the Municipality and the signatures referred to in this section
may be printed, lithographed, engraved or otherwise mechanically reproduced. The
Debentures are sufficiently signed if they bear the required signatures and each
person signing has the authority to do so on the date he or she signs.
3. THAT the Debentures shall be in fully registered form as one or more certificates in
the aggregate principal amount of $6,500,000.00, in the name of OILC, or as OILC
may otherwise direct, substantially in the form attached as Schedule "B" hereto and
forming part of this By-law with provision for payment of principal and interest (other
than in respect of the final payment of principal and outstanding interest on maturity
upon presentation and surrender) by pre -authorized debit in respect of such principal
and interest to the credit of such registered holder on such terms as to which the
registered holder and the Municipality may agree.
4. THAT in accordance with the provisions of section 25 of the Ontario Infrastructure
and Lands Corporation Act, 2011, as amended from time to time hereafter, the
Municipality is hereby authorized to agree in writing with OILC that the Minister of
Finance is entitled, without notice to the Municipality, to deduct from money
appropriated by the Legislative Assembly of Ontario for payment to the Municipality,
amounts not exceeding any amounts that the Municipality fails to pay OILC on
account of any unpaid indebtedness of the Municipality to OILC underthe Debentures
and to pay such amounts to OILC from the Consolidated Revenue Fund.
THAT the Debentures shall all be dated March 15, 2021, and as to both principal and
interest shall be expressed and be payable in lawful money of Canada. The
Debentures shall bear interest at the rate of 1.91% per annum and mature during a
2 of 29
period of 10 year(s) years from the date thereof payable semi-annually in arrears as
described in this section. The Debentures shall be paid in full by March 15, 2031 and
be payable in equal semi-annual instalments of combined principal and interest on
the fifteenth day of September and on the fifteenth of March in each of the years 2021
to 2031, both inclusive, save and except for the last instalment which may vary slightly
from the preceding equal instalments, as set forth in Schedule "C" attached hereto
and forming part of this By-law ("Schedule "C").
6. THAT payments in respect of principal of and interest on the Debentures shall be
made only on a day, other than Saturday or Sunday, on which banking institutions in
Toronto, Ontario, Canada and the Municipality are not authorized or obligated by law
or executive order to be closed (a "Business Day") and if any date for payment is not
a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Toronto Business Day.
7. THAT interest shall be payable to the date of maturity of the Debentures and on
default shall be payable on any overdue amounts both before and after default and
judgment at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the rate specified on the
Schedule as attached to and forming part of the Debentures for such amounts plus
200 basis points or Prime Rate (as defined below) plus 200 basis points, calculated
on a daily basis from the date such amounts become overdue for so long as such
amounts remain overdue and the Municipality shall pay to the registered holders any
and all costs incurred by the registered holders as a result of the overdue payment.
Any amounts payable by the Municipality as interest on overdue principal or interest
and all costs incurred by the registered holders as a result of the overdue payment in
respect of the Debentures shall be paid out of current revenue. Whenever it is
necessary to compute any amount of interest in respect of the Debentures for a period
of less than one full year, other than with respect to regular semi-annual interest
payments, such interest shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days
in the period and a year of 365 days or 366 days as appropriate.
"Prime Rate" means, on any day, the annual rate of interest which is the arithmetic
mean of the prime rates announced from time to time by the following five major
Canadian Schedule I banks, as of the issue date of the Debentures: Royal Bank of
Canada; Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce; The Bank of Nova Scotia; Bank of
Montreal; and The Toronto -Dominion Bank (the "Reference Banks") as their
reference rates in effect on such day for Canadian dollar commercial loans made in
Canada. If fewer than five of the Reference Banks quote a prime rate on such days,
the "Prime Rate" shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by those Reference
Banks.
THAT in each year in which a payment of equal semi-annual instalments of combined
principal and interest becomes due in respect of the Capital Work(s) including the last
'non -equal' instalment, there shall be raised as part of the Municipality's general levy
the amounts of principal and interest payable by the Municipality in each year as set
out in Schedule "C" to the extent that the amounts have not been provided for by any
other available source including other taxes or fees or charges imposed on persons
or property by a by-law of any municipality.

the ownership of any Debenture or be affected by notice of any equity that may be
subsisting in respect thereof. The Municipality shall deem and treat registered

notwithstanding any notice to the contrary and all payments to or to the order of
registered holders shall be valid and effectual to discharge the liability of the
Municipality on the Debentures to the extent of the amount or amounts so paid. When

time to time payable on such Debenture shall be paid to or to the order of all the joint

the foregoing provisions of this section, the principal of and interest on any
Debentures registered in their names may be paid to the survivor or survivors of such
holders and such payment shall constitute a valid discharge to the Municipality.

form is in accordance with the prevailing Canadian transfer legislation and practices,

4 of 29
discretion; and (c) surrendered to the Municipality any mutilated or defaced
Debentures in respect of which new Debentures are to be issued in substitution.

We have examined the By-law of the Municipality authorizing the issue of amortizing
debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $6,500,000.00 dated March 15,
2021 and maturing on March 15, 2031 payable in equal semi-annual instalments of

fifteenth day of March in each of the years 2021 to 2031, both inclusive, save and
except for the last instalment which may vary slightly from the preceding equal
instalments as set out in Schedule "C" to the By-law.
In our opinion, the By-law has been properly passed and is within the legal powers
of the Municipality. The debenture issued under the By-law in the within form (the
"Debenture") is the direct, general, unsecured and unsubordinated obligation of the
Municipality. The Debenture is enforceable against the Municipality subject to the
special jurisdiction and powers of the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal over defaulting
municipalities under the Municipal Affairs Act. This opinion is subject to and
incorporates all the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set out in our opinion
letter.

We have examined the By-law of the Municipality authorizing the issue of amortizing
debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $6,500,000.00 dated March 15,
2021 and maturing on March 15, 2031 payable in equal semi-annual instalments of
combined principal and interest on the fifteenth day of September and on the
fifteenth day of March in each of the years 2021 to 2031, both inclusive, save and
except for the last instalment which may vary slightly from the preceding equal
instalments as set out in Schedule "C" to the By-law.
In our opinion, the By-law has been properly passed and is within the legal powers
of the Municipality. The debenture issued under the By-law in the within form (the
"Debenture") is the direct, general, unsecured and unsubordinated obligation of the
Municipality. The Debenture is enforceable against the Municipality subject to the
special jurisdiction and powers of the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal over defaulting
municipalities under the Municipal Affairs Act. This opinion is subject to and
incorporates all the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set out in our opinion
letter.

3. With respect to the undertaking of the capital work(s) described in the Debenture
By-law (the "Capital Work(s)"), before the Council of the Municipality exercised any of its
powers in respect of the Capital Work(s), and before authorizing any additional cost amount

had its Treasurer complete the required calculation set out in the relevant debt and financial
obligation limits regulation (the "Regulation"). Accordingly, based on the Treasurer's

Regulation.
4. No application has been made or action brought to quash, set aside or declare

contemplated thereby do not conflict with, or result in a breach or violation of any statutory
provisions which apply to the Municipality or any agreement to which the Municipality is a party
or under which the Municipality or any of its property is or may be bound, or, to the best of my
knowledge, violate any order, award, judgment, determination, writ, injunction or decree
