investment status of securities issued by the board or the ability
of the board to fulfill its commitments to__holders of securities.__
Nothing in this chapter may be construed to authorize the board to
issue securities to fund the construction, reconstruction, purchase
or acquisition of facilities without a majority vote of approval in
each House of the Legislature.

 
3.__After issuance.__After issuance, all securities of the
board must be conclusively presumed to be fully and duly
authorized and issued under the laws of the State and any person
or governmental unit is estopped from questioning their
authorization, sale, issuance, execution or delivery by the
board.

 
4.__Form of securities.__The securities of each issue must be
dated, mature at such time or times not exceeding 40 years from
their date or dates and bear interest at such rate or rates,
including variable, floating or adjustable rates, as may be
authorized by the board.__These securities may be made
redeemable, callable or subject to purchase or tender before

the securities, if any, and the manner of execution of the
securities and shall fix the denomination or denominations of the
securities and the place or places of payment of principal and
interest, which may be at any bank, national banking association

resolution.__If any official whose signature or a facsimile of
whose signature appears on any securities or coupons ceases to be
an official before the delivery of the securities, the signature
or the facsimile is valid and sufficient for all purposes, with
the same effect as if the official had remained in office until
the delivery.

 
Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Act or any
recitals in any securities issued under this Act, all such
securities are negotiable instruments issued under the laws of
the State.__The securities may be issued in coupon or registered
form, or both, as the board may determine.__Provisions may be
made for the registration of any coupon securities as to
principal alone and as to both principal and interest and for the
reconversion into coupon securities of any securities registered
as to both principal and interest.__The board may sell the
securities in such manner, either at public or private sale, and
