Illinois Code § 7.26

§ 7.26.

In connection with the acquisition or carrying of the Authority's investments, in connection with issuances by the Authority of its bonds and notes for purposes of the Authority's programs or in support of its bonds and notes outstanding, or in connection with any other of its corporate purposes, the Authority, for its own benefit or for the benefit of the holders of notes or bonds of the Authority or their trustee, may enter into rate protection contracts and related credit enhancement or liquidity agreements. The Authority shall enter into a rate protection contract only pursuant to a determination that the terms of the rate protection contracts and any related agreements reduce the risk of loss to the Authority or protect, preserve or enhance the value of its assets. The determination may be made, and the terms and conditions of any rate protection contract may be approved, by the members or may be delegated by the members, in particular cases or generally, to any 2 of the chairman, the vice chairman, the director, the deputy director, the treasurer or the assistant treasurer of the Authority. The Authority's obligations under any rate protection contract shall not be considered bonds or notes for purposes of this Act. (Source: P.A. 87-250.)
