(5) Prior to the preparation of definitive bonds, the corporation may, under like restrictions, issue interim receipts or temporary bonds, with or without coupons, <br>exchangeable for definitive bonds when the bonds have been executed and are available for delivery. The corporation may also provide for the replacement of any <br>bonds or notes which become mutilated, destroyed, or lost. (6) (a) Prior to the issuance of any bonds or notes that are not secured by: 1. Direct obligations or obligations guaranteed by the United States of <br>America; or 2. Obligations of federal agencies to the extent that the obligations are <br>backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America; or 3. Repurchase agreements with any primary dealer in securities fully <br>secured by obligations described in subparagraphs 1. and 2. of this <br>paragraph if the market value of the security is maintained at one <br>hundred three percent (103%) of the principal amount of the repurchase <br>agreement and the security is held by an independent third-party <br>custodian financial institution; or 4. Insured or guaranteed construction loans or mortgage loans as defined <br>by KRS 198A.010(9) and (10); or 5.

This requirement shall <br>not apply to refunding bond or note issues which are for the purpose of <br>achieving debt service savings and which do not extend the term of the <br>refunded bonds or notes. (b) The corporation may provide for the issuance, at any one (1) time or from time to time, of bonds which do not satisfy the requirements of paragraph (a) <br>of this subsection without approval of the issuance by the General Assembly if <br>the cumulative outstanding indebtedness of the corporation that does not meet <br>the requirements of paragraph (a) of this subsection does not exceed thirty <br>million dollars (&#36;30,000,000). (c) The corporation shall annually report on its housing and bonding programs to the Interim Joint Committee on Appropriations and Revenue.
