§ 9-19-105. Records and books.

The registration agent shall keep such books as shall be necessary in connection with the issuance, exchange and transfer of fully registered public obligations. Any issuer may provide that no such fully registered public obligation shall be valid for any purpose unless certified or authenticated by such registration agent, and if so provided, then such fully registered public obligation shall be valid only if so certified or authenticated by the manual signature of an officer of such registration agent. The issuance and transference of a public obligation in book-entry form shall be effected by means of entries on the records of the registration agent which shall reflect the description of the issue, the principal amount, the interest rate, the maturity date, the owner of the public obligation and such other information as the issuer deems appropriate. If so permitted by the official actions authorizing public obligations, conversions may be effectuated between such obligations in book-entry form and registered public obligations evidenced by an instrument for owners of obligations who request such a change. The registration agent shall issue a confirmation of a book-entry transaction in the form of a written advice to the appropriate parties thereto. Such written advice shall confer no rights on the recipient, and shall be neither a negotiable instrument nor a security. Acts 1983, ch. 100, § 5.
