Sec. 9. Covenants in Bonds. (a) Any ordinance authorizing the issuance of bonds or related trust indenture may contain covenants as to:

(1) the use and disposition of the revenues and receipts from any home mortgages for which the bonds are to be issued, including the creation and maintenance of reserves;

(2) the insurance to be carried on any home, home mortgage, or bonds and the use and disposition of insurance moneys;

(3) the appointment of one (1) or more banks or trust companies within or outside the state of Indiana, having the necessary trust powers, as trustee or custodian for the benefit of the bondholders, paying agent or bond registrar;

(4) the investment of any funds held by this trustee or custodian;

(5) the maximum interest rate payable on any home mortgage; and

(6) the terms and conditions upon which the holders of the bonds or any portion thereof, or any trustees therefor, are entitled to the appointment of a receiver by a court of competent jurisdiction, and these terms and conditions may provide that the receiver may enter and take possession of the home mortgages, or any part thereof, and maintain, sell or otherwise dispose of such mortgages, prescribe other payments and collect, receive and apply all income and revenues thereafter arising therefrom.

(b) Any ordinance authorizing the issuance of bonds or related trust indenture may provide that the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any such bonds shall be secured by a mortgage, pledge, security interest, insurance agreement or indenture of trust covering such home mortgages for which the bonds are issued. Such mortgage, pledge, security interest, insurance agreement or indenture of trust may contain such covenants and agreements to safeguard the bonds as is provided for in the ordinance authorizing the bonds and shall be executed in the manner as may be provided for in the ordinance.

(c) The provisions of this chapter and any ordinance and any mortgage, pledge, security interest or indenture of trust shall constitute a contract with the holder of the bonds and continues in effect until the principal of, the interest on, and the redemption premiums, if any, on the bonds so issued have been fully paid or provision made therefor. The duties of this county or municipality and its governing body and officers under this chapter, any ordinance, and any mortgage, pledge, security interest or indenture of trust shall be enforceable as provided in it by any bondholder by mandamus, foreclosure, or other appropriate suit, action or proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction. However, the ordinance or any mortgage, pledge, security interest or indenture of trust under which the bonds are issued may provide that all remedies and rights to enforcement may be vested in a trustee (with full power of appointment) for the benefit of all the bondholders which trustee shall be subject to the control of a specified number of holders or owners of any outstanding bonds.
