* § 206. Bonds of the authority. 1. The authority shall have power and is hereby authorized from time to time to issue its negotiable bonds in conformity with applicable provisions of the uniform commercial code in the aggregate principal amount of not exceeding one million five hundred thousand dollars for any corporate purpose. The authority shall have power from time to time to refund any bonds by the issuance of new bonds, whether the bonds to be refunded have or have not matured, and may issue bonds partly to refund bonds then outstanding and partly for any other corporate purpose. In computing the total amount of bonds of the authority which may at any time be outstanding the amount of the outstanding bonds to be refunded from the proceeds of the sale of new bonds or by exchange for new bonds shall be excluded. 2. Such bonds shall be authorized by resolution of the board and shall be issued in one or more series, shall bear such date or dates, mature at such time or times, not exceeding forty years from their respective dates, bear interest at such rate or rates, not exceeding five per centum per annum payable semi-annually, be in such denominations, be in such form, either coupon or registered, carry such registration privileges, be executed in such manner, be payable in such medium of payment, at such place or places, be subject to such terms of redemption, and be declared or become due before the maturity date thereof, as such resolution or resolutions may provide. Such bonds may be issued for money or property (at public or private sale for such price or prices) as the authority shall determine, provided that the interest cost to maturity of the money or property (at its value as determined by the board, the determination of which shall be conclusive) received for any issue of such bonds, shall not exceed five per centum per annum. Refunding bonds exchanged for outstanding bonds may be exchanged on such terms and with such cash adjustments as the authority shall determine. 3.
