152.12 Obligations for refunding of prior obligations.

The Ohio building authority may authorize and issue obligations for the refunding of prior obligations for any of the following purposes:

(A) Refunding any obligations previously issued by the authority, when the revenues pledged for the payment of such obligations are insufficient to pay obligations which have matured or are about to mature or to maintain reserve or other funds required by the resolution or trust agreement or indenture;

(B) Refunding any obligations previously issued by the authority as an incident to providing funds for reconstructing, equipping, furnishing, improving, extending, or enlarging any capital facilities of the authority;

(C) Refunding all of the outstanding obligations of any issue, both matured and unmatured, when the revenues pledged for the payment of such obligations are insufficient to pay obligations which have matured or are about to mature or to maintain reserve or other funds required by the resolution or trust agreement or indenture, if such outstanding obligations can be retired by call or at maturity or with the consent of the holders, whether from the proceeds of the sale of the refunding obligations or by exchange for the refunding obligations, provided the principal amount of the refunding obligations shall not exceed in amount the aggregate of the par value of the obligations to be retired, any redemption premium, past due and future interest to the date of maturity or call that cannot otherwise be paid, and funds to reconstruct, equip, furnish, improve, enlarge, or extend any capital facilities of the authority;

(D) Refunding any obligations previously issued by the authority when the refunding obligations will bear interest at a lower rate than the obligations to be refunded, or when the interest cost of the refunding obligations computed to the absolute maturity will be less than the interest cost of the obligations to be refunded;

(E) Refunding any obligations issued pursuant to section 152.23 of the Revised Code.

Obligations issued pursuant to division (A) of this section shall mature not later than twenty years after their issuance and obligations issued pursuant to division (B), (C), (D), or (E) of this section shall mature not later than forty years after their issuance. Except as provided in this section, the terms of issuance and sale of obligations issued under this section shall be as provided in Chapter 152. of the Revised Code for any other obligations. Obligations authorized under this section shall be deemed to be issued for those purposes for which such prior obligations were issued, and may be issued in amounts sufficient for funding and retirement of prior obligations, for establishment of reserves as required by the refunding obligations or the resolution authorizing such refunding obligations or the trust agreement or indenture securing the refunding obligations, and for payment of any fees and expenses incurred or to be incurred in connection with such issuance and such refunding.
