(2) the resolution or other authority under which the bond is issued limits payment of principal and interest to:
(i) the proceeds of limited sources of revenue; or
(ii) a special fund established for that purpose;
(3) any law limits payment of principal and interest to a certain amount or rate of tax that may be imposed; or
(4) principal or interest are registrable.
(c) A bond that is considered to be an investment security under subsection (b) of this section has all the attributes of an investment security that are possessed by a bond that is:
(1) issued on the full faith and credit of the issuer;
(2) payable to bearer; and
(3) secured as to the payment of principal and interest by the unlimited taxing power of the issuer.
