(b) To enter into any purchase, loan, line of credit, credit or similar agreements, and to draw monies, from time to time, pursuant to any such agreements on the terms and conditions set forth therein and to issue notes as evidence of borrowings made under any such agreements.
Such agreements may provide for the compensation of any purchasers or underwriters of such notes by payment of a fee or commission, and for all other costs and expenses, including fees for agreements related to the sale and issuance of notes. All costs and expenses of sale and issuance of notes may be paid from the proceeds of the notes or from any other lawfully available source of monies.
