The principal of and the interest on bonds shall be payable solely from the funds provided for payment.

(b) The bonds of each issue shall be dated, shall bear interest at a rate as may be determined by the parkways authority in its sole discretion, shall mature at a time not exceeding forty years from their date or of issue as may be determined by the parkways authority, and may be made redeemable before maturity, at the option of the parkways authority at a price and under the terms and conditions as may be fixed by the parkways authority prior to the issuance of the bonds.

(c) The parkways authority shall determine the form of the bonds, including any interest coupons to be attached thereto, and shall fix the denomination of the bonds and the place of payment of principal and interest, which may be at any bank or trust company within or without the state.

Any coupons attached to any bond shall bear the manual or facsimile signature of the chair of the parkways authority.

(e) In case any officer whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature appears on any bonds or coupons shall cease to be an officer before the delivery of the bonds, the signature or facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes the same as if he had remained in office until delivery.

Unless otherwise provided in the resolution authorizing the issuance of the bonds or in the trust agreement securing the bonds, the additional bonds shall be deemed to be of the same issue and shall be entitled to payment from the same fund without preference or priority of the bonds first issued.

(j) If the proceeds of the bonds of any issue exceed the cost of the project or projects for which the bonds were issued, then the surplus shall be deposited to the credit of the sinking fund for the bonds.

(k) Prior to the preparation of definitive bonds, the parkways authority may, under like restrictions, issue interim receipts or temporary bonds, with or without coupons, exchangeable for definitive bonds when the bonds have been executed and are available for delivery.
