Redemption - Recitals. A. The principal amount of the refunding bonds may be less than, more than, or the same as the principal amount of the obligations being refunded, if there is a provision for the payment in full and discharge of such refunded obligations. The principal amount of the refunding bonds may be greater than the principal amount of the bonds being refunded only if the total principal and interest of the refunding bonds is less than the total principal and interest of the bonds being refunded. B. Refunding bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of the General Obligation Public Securities Refunding Act shall: 1. Be of a convenient denomination; 2. Mature at such time not exceeding twenty-five (25) years from the date of the refunding bonds as determined by the governing body, with municipal levies to begin as determined by the governing body, but in not more than five (5) years of the date of the refunding bonds; 3. Be in coupon or registered form; 4. Bear interest at a specified rate determined by the governing body, but not exceeding any applicable statutory rate, payable annually or semiannually, but the first interest payment may be for interest accruing for any other period not to exceed three (3) years; 5. Be made payable, both principal and interest, in legal tender of the United States, at such place as determined by the governing body; 6. Be legal tender and authorized investments for banks, savings banks, trust companies, savings and loan associations, insurance companies, fiduciaries, trustees and guardians, and for the State of Oklahoma and any of its political subdivisions, departments, institutions and agencies. Coupon bonds, when accompanied by all unmatured coupons appurtenant thereto, and registered bonds are approved as collateral security for all deposits of state funds or any other public funds. Provided, the bonds being refunded shall still be approved as collateral security for all deposits of state funds or any other public funds. C. The right to redeem all or part of the refunding bonds prior to their maturity, and the order of any said redemption, may be reserved in the ordinance or resolution of the governing body authorizing the issuance of the bonds and, if so reserved, shall be set forth in the text of such refunding bonds. D. Any ordinance or resolution authorizing, or any escrow agreement or trust indenture or other instrument appertaining to, any refunding bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of the General Obligation Public Securities Refunding Act may provide that each refunding bond shall recite that it is issued pursuant to the authority of the General Obligation Public Securities Refunding Act. The recital shall conclusively impart full compliance with all of the provisions and limitations of the General Obligation Public Securities Refunding Act. All refunding bonds issued containing the recital shall be incontestable for any cause whatsoever after their delivery for value.
