In subsection (a), the words "and may buy, redeem, and make refunds under section 3111 of this title" are substituted for "and to retire any outstanding obligations of the United States issued under this Act" for consistency. The words "subject to the limitations imposed by section 757b of this title" are omitted as surplus. The word "conditions" is substituted for "terms and conditions" because it is inclusive.
