issuance of revenue bonds of the authority for the purpose of refunding any revenue bonds of
the authority then outstanding, including the payment of any redemption premium thereon
and any interest accrued or to accrue to the earliest or any subsequent date of redemption,
purchase or maturity of such revenue bonds, and, if deemed advisable by the authority, for the
additional purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of constructing and acquiring additions,
improvements, extensions or enlargements of a project or any portion thereof.
    Subd. 2. Proceeds. The proceeds of any such revenue bonds issued for the purpose of
refunding outstanding revenue bonds may, in the discretion of the authority, be applied to the
purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption of such outstanding revenue bonds either on
their earliest or any subsequent redemption date or upon the purchase or at the maturity thereof
and may, pending such application be placed in escrow to such purchase or retirement at maturity
or redemption on such date as may be determined by the authority.
    Subd. 3. Investment. Any such escrowed proceeds, pending such use, may be invested and
reinvested in direct obligations of the United States of America, or in certificates of deposit or
time deposits secured by direct obligations of the United States of America, maturing at such
time or times as shall be appropriate to assure the prompt payment, as to principal, interest and
redemption premium, if any, of the outstanding revenue bonds to be so refunded. The interest,
income and profits, if any, earned or realized on any such investment may also be applied to the
payment of the outstanding revenue bonds to be so refunded. After the terms of the escrow

profits, if any, earned or realized on the investments thereof may be returned to the authority
for use by it in any lawful manner.
    Subd. 4. Additional purpose; improvements. The portion of the proceeds of any such
