Chapter 2. Operation and Financing of Toll Roads
8-15-2-10.5. Toll Road Succeeding Lien Bonds

Sec. 10.5. (a) If at any time all revenues are pledged to secure the payment of any toll road revenue bonds then outstanding, the authority, rather than providing for the issuance of another series of bonds equally secured by a pledge of such revenues or for immediate refunding of such bonds, may as it considers it advisable, provide by resolution for the issuance of toll road succeeding lien bonds of the state for the purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of any one (1) or more toll road projects, or for the present or future refunding of part or all of the outstanding toll road revenue bonds, or for both purposes.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, revenues shall not be considered to be pledged for the payment of such succeeding lien bonds, including the interest thereon, so long as any of such prior bonds are outstanding but, upon retirement of such prior bonds, such revenues shall be subjected immediately to a pledge securing the succeeding lien bonds by the terms of the trust agreement under which such succeeding lien bonds are issued without any further action by the authority.
(c) Succeeding lien bonds must provide that, pending payment of all such prior outstanding bonds, interest on the succeeding lien bonds shall be paid solely from the portion of the proceeds of the succeeding lien bonds designated for the payment of capitalized interest and from the earnings on such proceeds. After such prior outstanding bonds have been redeemed or retired, the principal of, premium, if any, and the interest on, the succeeding lien bonds shall be payable solely from the revenues and other funds pledged for such payment.
(d) The issuance and sale of succeeding lien bonds, the maturities and other details thereof, the rights of the holders thereof, and the rights, duties and obligations of the authority with respect thereto, shall be governed by the provisions of this chapter insofar as the same may be applicable, and the authority need not comply with the requirements of any other law applicable to the issuance of bonds other than as set forth in this chapter.
As added by Acts 1980, P.L.74, SEC.237. Amended by Acts 1981, P.L.41, SEC.55; P.L.109-1983, SEC.14.
