N.Y. Private Housing Finance Law Section 49
State’s right to require redemption of bonds

Notwithstanding and in addition to any provisions for the redemption of bonds which may be contained in any contract with the holders of the bonds, the state may, upon furnishing sufficient funds therefor, require the agency to redeem, prior to maturity, as a whole, any issue of bonds on any interest payment date not less than twenty years after the date of the bonds of such issue at one hundred five per centum of their face value and accrued interest or at such lower redemption price as may be provided in the bonds in case of the redemption thereof as a whole on the redemption date. Notice of such redemption shall be published in at least two newspapers publishing and circulating respectively in the cities of Albany and New York at least twice, the first publication to be at least thirty days before the date of redemption. The provisions of this section relating to the state’s right to require redemption of bonds, shall not apply to state-supported debt, as defined in State Finance Law § 67-A (Definitions)section sixty-seven-a of the state finance law, issued by the agency. Such agency bonds shall remain subject to redemption pursuant to any contract with the holders of such bonds.
