Sec. 5.7. (a) If there are bonds outstanding issued pursuant to section 5.4 of this chapter, the treasurer of the board shall deposit in a separate and distinct fund called the commuter transportation system bond fund all amounts distributed to the district from the commuter rail service fund (IC 8-3-1.5-20.5) and the electric rail service fund established by IC 8-3-1.5-20.6.

(b) “Bond fund requirement” means the total of the following:

(1) the principal of and interest on all outstanding bonds issued pursuant to this chapter becoming due in the next twelve (12) months;  plus

(2) as a reserve for such payment the amount provided in the resolutions or trust agreements pursuant to which such bonds are issued which reserve shall not in any event exceed an amount equal to two (2) times the maximum amount of principal and interest coming due of such bonds in any subsequent year by reason of stated maturities, scheduled mandatory prepayments or by operation of any mandatory prepayments or by operation of any mandatory sinking fund (assuming for the purpose of the foregoing that all such bonds which are subject to mandatory redemption or prepayment are redeemed or prepaid in accordance with the requirements of such mandatory redemption or prepayment and further assuming that such bonds are otherwise redeemed or prepaid prior to maturity).

(c) Amounts in the commuter transportation bond fund up to the bond fund requirement shall be applied to the payment of principal of such bonds and the interest thereon and to no other purpose whatsoever.  Any amount in the bond fund which exceeds the bond fund requirement may be expended by the board for any purpose authorized by this chapter.

(d) The reserve shall be held as a separate subaccount within such bond fund.  To the extent authorized and directed in any resolution of the board or in any trust agreement providing for the issuance of bonds pursuant to this chapter, proceeds of such bonds may be deposited in such reserve subaccount.  However, the amount so deposited when added to any amount then in such subaccount shall not exceed the maximum amount required to be in such subaccount as above provided.
