Nevada § 349.344

• Jurisdiction: Nevada
• Title 30: PUBLIC BORROWING AND OBLIGATIONS
• Ch. 349: State

Text

1. Any such escrow or trust shall not necessarily be limited to proceeds of refunding bonds but may include other moneys available for its purpose.
2. Any proceeds in escrow or trust, pending such use, may be invested or reinvested in federal securities, and in the case of an escrow or trust for the refunding of outstanding state special obligation (but not general obligation) securities, in other securities issued by the Federal Government if the resolution authorizing the issuance of such outstanding state securities or any trust indenture or other proceedings appertaining thereto expressly permits any such investment or reinvestment in such securities issued by the Federal Government other than federal securities.
3. Any trust bank accounting for federal securities and other securities issued by the Federal Government in such escrow or trust may place them for safekeeping wholly or in part in any trust bank or trust banks within or without or both within and without this state.
4. Any trust bank shall continuously secure any moneys placed in escrow or trust and not so invested or reinvested in federal securities and other securities issued by the Federal Government by a pledge in any trust bank or trust banks within or without or both within and without the State of federal securities in an amount at all times at least equal to the total uninvested amount of such moneys accounted for in such escrow or trust.
5. Such proceeds and investments in escrow or trust, together with any interest or other gain to be derived from any such investment, shall be in an amount at all times at least sufficient to pay principal, interest, any prior redemption premiums due, and any charges of the escrow agent or trustee and any other incidental expenses payable therefrom, except to the extent provision may have been previously otherwise made therefor, as such obligations become due at their respective maturities or due at designated prior redemption date or dates in connection with which the Commission has exercised or is obligated to exercise a prior redemption option on behalf of the State.
6. The computations made in determining such sufficiency shall be verified by a certified public accountant certified or licensed to practice in this state or in any other state.
7. Any purchaser of any refunding bond issued hereunder shall in no manner be responsible for the application of the proceeds thereof by the State, the Commission or any of the officers, agents or employees of the State.
