The refunding bonds shall not exceed the amount of bonds refunded and interest accrued on the bonds to the date of the refunding bonds. They shall bear interest at a rate or rates or method of determining rates as the board determines and be payable at least annually.
(2) When issued, refunding bonds may be exchanged for the outstanding bonds if the holders of the bonds agree, or the refunding bonds may be sold for not less than the par value and accrued interest. The proceeds of the sale of the bonds shall be used in the payment of the outstanding bonds and the cost incident to the issuing of the refunding bonds. No refunding bond shall become a valid obligation of the district until an equivalent amount of the bonds refunded have been surrendered and canceled. Until refunding bonds have been issued, the rate of tax or amount of assessment applicable to the bonds to be refunded shall not be reduced.
