6-8B-16. Agents for authentication, transfer, registration, payment, and other functions--Central depository system. A governing body may appoint for a term as may be agreed, including for so long as a registered bond may be outstanding, corporate or other authenticating agents, transfer agents, registrars, paying or other agents, located within or without the state, and specify the terms of their appointment, including their rights, their compensation and duties, limits upon their liabilities and provisions for their payment of liquidated damages in the event of breach of certain of the duties imposed, which liquidated damages may be made payable to the issuer, the owner or a financial intermediary. Any bank or trust company appointed as an agent under this section shall comply with §§ 51A-5-7 to 51A-5-10, inclusive. A governing body may agree with custodian banks and financial intermediaries, and nominees of any of them, in connection with the establishment and maintenance by others of a central depository system for the transfer or pledge of registered bonds. Any custodian banks and financial intermediaries, and nominees, may, if qualified and acting as fiduciaries, also serve as authenticating agents, transfer agents, registrars, paying or other agents of the issuer with respect to the same issue of registered public securities. Nothing precludes the governing body through its clerk from itself performing, either alone or jointly with other governing bodies, any transfer, registration, authentication, payment, or other function described in this section.
