other suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity that is now or may. hereafter be authorized
under the laws of the State of California in any court of competent jurisdiction. Said contract is

exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or
shall be construed as a waiver of any such default or acquiescence therein. Every substantive
right and every remedy conferred upon the bondholders may be enforced and exercised as often
as may be deemed expedient. In case any suit, action or proceeding to enforce any right 01'
exercise any remedy shall be brought or taken and the bondholder shall prevail, said bondholder
shall be entitled to receive from the Water Revenue Fund reimbursement for reasonable costs,
expenses, outlays and attorney's fees and should said suit, action or proceeding be abandoned,
or be determined adversely to the bondholders then, and in every such case, the City and the
bondholders shall be restored to their former positions, rights and remedies as if such suit,
action or proceeding had not been brought or taken.

thereto shall be irrepealable, but shall be subject to modification to the extent and in the manner

as defined herein. From and after the sale of the bonds the general fund of the City shall not
include the revenues of the enterprise.

contained in this ordinance, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, is held to
be unconstitutional, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this ordinance and the application
of any such covenant, agreement or provision, or portion thereof, to other persons or circum-
st;ances, shall be deemed severable and shall not be affected thereby, and this ordinance and the
bonds issued pursuant hereto, shall remain valid and the bondholders shall retain all valid rights
and benefits accorded to them under this ordinance and the Constitution and laws of the State of
