Sec. 17.176. INTEREST RATE. (a) Except as provided in Subsection (b) of this section, bonds and securities purchased by the board on or after September 1, 1977, with money derived from the sale of bonds issued under this chapter shall bear interest at the lending rate. The bonds shall bear coupons evidencing interest at a rate or combination of rates that will approximate the lending rate as nearly as the board deems practicable. The lending rate shall be affected by the payment of premiums or the deduction of discounts as necessary.
(b) Bonds and securities purchased by the board pursuant to applications for financial assistance approved by the board prior to September 1, 1977, shall bear interest at the rate prescribed by Subsection (a) of this section prior to this amendment. Outstanding prior lien bonds purchased by the board under Section 17.173 of this code need not bear the interest rate provided in Subsection (a) of this section, but the board may pay such price or prices for outstanding prior lien bonds which in its discretion will accomplish the objective of that section.
Amended by Acts 1987, 70th Leg., ch. 1103, Sec. 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1987.
