2being refinanced.
SB44-SSA1,51,213 2. If a trust is created, a separate deposit shall be made for each issue of

7than sale proceeds but legally available for such purpose, is less than the principal
8amount of the obligations being refinanced and for the payment of which the deposit
9has been created and pledged, together with applicable redemption premiums and
10interest accrued and to accrue to maturity or to the date of redemption, then the
11application of the sale proceeds shall be legally sufficient only if the money deposited
12is invested in securities issued by the United States or one of its agencies, or
13securities fully guaranteed by the United States, and only if the principal amount
14of the securities at maturity and the income therefrom to maturity will be sufficient
15and available, without the need for any further investment or reinvestment, to pay
16at maturity or upon redemption the principal amount of the obligations being
17refinanced together with applicable redemption premiums and interest accrued and
18to accrue to maturity or to the date of redemption. The income from the principal
19proceeds of the securities shall be applied solely to the payment of the principal of
20and interest and redemption premiums on the obligations being refinanced, but
21provision may be made for the pledging and disposition of any surplus.

24not matured and that are not presently redeemable. Nothing in this paragraph may
25be construed to prohibit reinvestment of the income of a trust if the reinvestments
