Any grant anticipation note issued under this article may be negotiable or may be payable to order or to bearer and may be in any denomination. Except as limited by the Constitution of the State of California, such note shall be payable not later than 36 months after the date of issue and shall be payable solely, except as provided in Section 53859.07, from committed and appropriated funds of grants or loans of the state or federal government to the local agency that the granting or loaning authority states shall be paid on specified dates or events within a 36-month period from the dating of the grant anticipation notes issued. Such note may be sold at public or private sale at a discount of not to exceed 2 percent of the par value thereof. Such note may bear interest not to exceed 10 percent per annum, payable as provided on its face. Such interest may be represented by coupons attached to such note or notes.
In those instances where the Constitution of the State of California limits a local agency from incurring an indebtedness or liability in any year which is in excess of income and revenue for that year, a note or notes issued pursuant to this article may be made payable during the fiscal year next succeeding the fiscal year in which they have been issued, but in no event later than 15 months after the date of issue; provided that such note or notes shall be payable only from income and revenue received or accrued during the fiscal year in which the note or notes were issued.
