195-D:16 Revenue Refunding Bonds. –
I. The corporation is authorized to provide for the issuance of its revenue bonds for the purpose of refunding any revenue bonds of the corporation then outstanding, including the payment of any redemption premium thereon and any interest accrued or to accrue to the earliest or subsequent date of redemption, purchase or maturity of such revenue bonds, and, if judged advisable by the corporation, for the additional purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of constructing and acquiring additions, improvements, extensions, or enlargements of a project or any portion thereof.
II. The proceeds of any such revenue bonds issued for the purpose of refunding outstanding revenue bonds may, in the discretion of the corporation, be applied to the purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption of such outstanding revenue bonds either on their earliest or any subsequent redemption date, and may, pending such application, be placed in escrow to be applied to such purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption on such date as may be determined by the corporation.
III. Any such escrowed proceeds, pending such use, may be invested and reinvested in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, or in obligations of agencies of the United States of America, or in certificates of deposit or time deposits secured by obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, maturing at such time or times that are appropriate to assure the prompt payment, as to principal, interest, and redemption premium, if any, of the outstanding revenue bonds to be so refunded. The interest, income, and profits, if any, earned or realized on any such investment may also be applied to the payment of the outstanding revenue bonds to be so refunded. After the terms of the escrow have been fully satisfied and carried out, any balance of such proceeds and interest, income and profits, if any, earned or realized on the investments thereof may be returned to the corporation for use by it in any lawful manner.
IV. The portion of the proceeds of any such revenue bonds issued for the additional purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of construction and acquiring additions, improvements, extensions or enlargements of a project may be invested and reinvested in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, or in obligations of agencies of the United States of America, or in certificates of deposit or time deposits secured by obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, maturing not later than the time or times when such proceeds will be needed for the purpose of paying all or any part of such cost. The interest, income and profits, if any, earned or realized on such investment may be applied to the payment of all or any part of such cost or may be used by the corporation in any lawful manner.
V. All such revenue bonds shall be issued and secured and are subject to the provisions of this chapter in the same manner and to the same extent as any other revenue bonds issued pursuant to this chapter.
