Delaware Code
Subchapter II. Delaware State Housing Authority
§ 4020. Capital Reserve Fund.

(a) DSHA shall create and establish a special fund to secure the bonds, herein referred to as Capital Reserve Fund, and shall pay into the Capital Reserve Fund:

(1) Any moneys appropriated and made available by the State for the purposes of such fund;
(2) Any proceeds of the sale of bonds, to the extent provided in the resolution of DSHA, authorizing the issuance thereof; and
(3) Any other moneys which may be made available to DSHA for the purpose of such fund from any other source or sources.
All moneys held in the Capital Reserve Fund, except as hereinafter provided, shall be used solely for the payment of the principal of bonds of DSHA as the same mature, the redemption or purchase of bonds of DSHA, the payment of interest on such bonds of DSHA or the payment of any redemption premium required to be paid when such bonds are redeemed prior to the maturity. Moneys in the Capital Reserve Fund shall not be withdrawn therefrom at any time in such amount as would reduce the amount of the Fund to less than the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and becoming due in any succeeding fiscal year on all bonds of DSHA then outstanding, except for the purpose of paying principal and interest on bonds of DSHA maturing and becoming due and for the payment of which other moneys of DSHA are not available. Any income or interest earned by, or increment to, the Capital Reserve Fund due to the investment thereof may be transferred by DSHA to any other fund of DSHA to the extent it does not reduce the amount of Capital Reserve Fund below the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and becoming due in any succeeding fiscal year on all bonds of DSHA then outstanding.
(b) Except with respect to an issue, or portion of an issue, of bonds designated by resolution of DSHA as not being subject to the requirements and provisions of this section, DSHA shall not issue bonds at any time if the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and becoming due in a succeeding fiscal year on the bonds then to be issued and on all other bonds of DSHA then outstanding will exceed the amount of the Capital Reserve Fund at the time of issuance unless DSHA, at the time of issuance of such bonds, shall deposit in the Fund from the proceeds of the bonds so to be issued, or otherwise, an amount which, together with the amount then in the Fund, will be not less than the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and becoming due in any succeeding fiscal year on the bonds then to be issued and on all other bonds of DSHA then outstanding.
(c) To assure the continued operation and solvency of DSHA for the carrying out of the public purposes of this chapter, provision is made for the accumulation in the Capital Reserve Fund of an amount equal to the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and becoming due in any fiscal year on all bonds of DSHA then outstanding. In order to assure further such maintenance of the Capital Reserve Fund, there may be annually appropriated and paid to DSHA for deposit in the Capital Reserve Fund such sum, if any, as shall be certified by the Housing Director to the Governor and Director of the Office of Management and Budget, as necessary to restore the Capital Reserve Fund to an amount equal to the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and becoming due in any fiscal year on the bonds of DSHA then outstanding. In any case where a deficiency occurs in the Capital Reserve Fund, the Housing Director shall promptly make and deliver to the Governor and Director of the Office of Management and Budget a certificate stating the amount required to restore the Capital Reserve Fund, and the Governor shall, as soon as practicable during the current fiscal year, request an appropriation of such amount, and the amount so requested may be appropriated and paid to DSHA for deposit into the Capital Reserve Fund.
(d) In computing the amount of the Capital Reserve Fund for the purposes of this section, securities in which all or a portion of the fund is invested shall be valued in the manner provided in the resolution authorizing the issuance of the trust indenture securing such bonds.
(e) Calculations of the amount of principal and interest maturing and becoming due in any succeeding fiscal year shall be based upon the assumption that bonds of DSHA will, after said date of computation, cease to be outstanding by reason of the payment of such bonds at their respective maturities or the payment of all moneys required to be paid into a sinking fund on account of such bonds as may be required by the terms of any resolution or indenture pursuant to which such bonds have been issued and the application of such sinking fund to the retirement of bonds in accordance with their terms.
(f) For the purposes of this section, the term “bonds” shall mean all obligations of DSHA bearing a maturity date more than 2 years after the date thereof, except any bonds, notes or other obligations of DSHA which are designated by resolution of DSHA prior to the issuance thereof as being not subject to this section.
