("governmental agency") has applied for and received federal grants-in-aid or is
entitled as a matter of law to receipt of federal grants-in-aid which may be applied
for the purpose of providing a portion of or all of the funds required for construction

payable as to principal and interest, if interest is capitalized, from the federal grants
in anticipation of which the grant anticipation notes are authorized and issued, and

proceeds when received, either as sole security for the repayment of grant
anticipation notes, or together with any other assets and revenues of such
governmental agency which may be lawfully pledged for such repayment.
