In the Year Two Thousand and Twenty
RESOLVED by the Board of Aldermen of the City of Nashua that the Mayor of the City
of Nashua and the City Treasurer of the City of Nashua are hereby authorized to issue and sell
general obligation bonds of the City in an aggregate principal not to exceed one million four

interest from ad valorem taxes, which will be levied without limitation as to rate or amount on all
taxable property within the territorial limits of the City of Nashua.
The bonds shall bear the manual or facsimile signature of the City Treasurer and the
Mayor. In accordance with Chapter 91 of the New Hampshire Acts of 2005, bonds issued
pursuant to this resolution shall not require an authenticating certificate of a bank or trust
company doing business in the State of New Hampshire or The Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, or the Commissioner of Revenue Administration.
The bonds are to be issued in fully-registered form by means of a book-entry system or
otherwise and shall have such terms and conditions and be in such form, subject to the provisions
of this resolution and applicable law, as shall be determined by the Mayor and the City
Treasurer.
RESOLVED FURTHER, that the Mayor is authorized to enter into the required
contracts therefor as well as any amendments to be made thereto or any other documentation
necessary for the receipt of said funds.
