Bonds;
form; conditions; issuance; refunding.
(1) Bonds may be issued as serial bonds or as term bonds or a combination of
both types. The board may provide that such bonds:
(a) May be
executed and delivered by the Oregon Mass Transportation Financing Authority at
any time and from time to time in such amounts including all necessary and
incidental expenses, together with all necessary initial bond and interest
reserves and applicable interest during the period of acquisition;
(b) May be in
such form and denominations and of such terms and maturities;
(c) May be in
fully registered form or in bearer form registerable either as to principal or
interest or both;
(d) May bear such
conversion privileges and be payable in such installments and at such time or
times not exceeding 40 years from the date thereof;
(e) May be
payable at such time or times and at such place or places whether within or
without the State of Oregon and evidenced in such manner;
(f) May be made
optional for redemption prior to maturity at such price or prices and on such
terms and conditions;
(g) May be
executed by the manual or facsimile signatures of such officers of the
authority; and
(h) May contain
such other provisions not inconsistent with ORS 267.227 and 391.500 to 391.660.
(2) Any bonds of
the authority may be sold for such price and in such manner and from time to
time as may be determined by the board. The board shall publish notice of its
intent to sell bonds, at least once, at least two days prior to the date of
sale, in a newspaper of general circulation in each district which is to
receive financial assistance from the proceeds of the bonds. The notice shall
state the general purposes for which the bonds are to be sold. Issuance by the
authority of one or more series of bonds for one or more purposes shall not
preclude it from issuing other bonds in connection with the same mass transit
facility or any other mass transit facility or for any other purpose, but the
proceedings where any subsequent bonds may be issued shall recognize and
protect any prior pledge made for any prior issue of bonds. Refunding bonds may
be issued whether the bonds to be refunded are then subject to redemption or
are thereafter subject to redemption or maturity, and regardless of the purpose
for which the bonds to be refunded were issued by the authority. All such bonds
and the interest coupons applicable thereto, if any, are made and shall be
construed to be negotiable instruments. [1977 c.662 §9]
