Upon receipt of a certificate of public convenience and necessity from the Executive Director of the Mississippi Department of Economic and Community Development, the company shall have the power to borrow money and to issue from time to time its bonds to pay the cost of the projects for which such bonds have been issued, including but not limited to the power to issue from time to time bonds to renew or to pay bonds, including the interest thereon. Whenever bonds can be refunded to obtain interest rates on refunding bonds which are lower than the interest rates on the bonds to be refunded it shall have the power to refund any bonds by the issuance of new bonds, whether the bonds to be refunded have or have not matured, and to issue bonds partly to refund outstanding bonds. Refunding bonds may be sold and the proceeds applied to the purchase, redemption or payment of the bonds to be refunded, or exchanged for the bonds to be refunded. The company may undertake the financing of the cost of a project for an eligible business from the proceeds of its bonds by one or more of the following methods: (a) entering into a lease for the facilities of the eligible business being financed; (b) selling such facilities to the eligible business under a sales contract; (c) lending the proceeds of the sale of the bonds under a loan agreement with the eligible business; (d) entering into a loan to lenders transaction in the manner described in Section 57-10-227; or (e) entering into such other transaction or transactions as the company deems appropriate to accomplish the purposes of this article.
