RS 1787 - Bonds

A. The corporation is authorized, from time to time, to issue its bonds in order to provide for achieving any of its purposes under this Chapter.

B. Except as may otherwise be expressly provided by the corporation, each of its bonds shall be payable from any revenues or moneys of the corporation available therefor and not otherwise pledged, subject only to any agreements with the holders of particular bonds pledging any particular revenues or moneys. Such bonds shall be and are deemed to be for all purposes negotiable instruments, subject only to the provisions of such bonds for registration.

C. The corporation's bonds may be issued as serial bonds or as term bonds, or the corporation, in its discretion, may issue bonds of both types. The issuance of all bonds shall be authorized by resolution of the board of directors and shall bear such date or dates, mature at such time or times, not exceeding thirty years from their respective dates, bear interest at such rate or rates, be payable at such time or times, be in such denominations, be in such form, either coupon or registered, carry such registration privileges, be executed in such manner, be payable in lawful money of the United States of America at such place or places, and be subject to such terms of redemption, as the indenture, trust agreement, or resolution relating to such bonds may provide. The corporation's bonds may be sold by the corporation at public or private sale, for such price or prices and upon such terms and conditions as the corporation shall determine. The corporation may sell any bonds at a price below the par value thereof; provided, however, that the discount shall not exceed six percent of the par value thereof. Pending preparation of the definitive bonds, the corporation may issue interim receipts or certificates or temporary bonds which shall be exchanged for such definitive bonds.

D. Any resolution or resolutions authorizing the issuance of any bonds or any issue of bonds may contain provisions, which shall be part of the contract with the holders of the bonds to be authorized, as to pledging all or any part of the revenues of a project or any revenue-producing contract or contracts made by the corporation with any agency, department, corporation, or other person, public or private, to secure the payment of the bonds or of any particular issue of bonds.

E. Neither the members of the board of directors of the corporation or any person executing the bonds shall be liable personally on the bonds or be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of the issuance thereof.
