N.M. Stat. § 72-16-61
Single bonds.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the board in any proceedings authorizing
securities hereunder:
A. may provide for the initial issuance of one or more securities (in this Section 61
called "bond") aggregating the amount of the entire issue, or a designated portion
thereof;
B. may make such provisions for installment payments of the principal amount of
any such bond as it may consider desirable;
C. may provide for the making of any such bond payable to bearer or otherwise,
registrable as to principal or as to both principal and interest, and where interest
accruing thereon is not represented by interest coupons, for the endorsing of payments
of interest on such bonds;
D. may further make provision in any such proceedings for the manner and
circumstances in and under which any such bond may in the future, at the request of
the holder thereof, be converted into securities of smaller denominations, which
securities of smaller denominations may in turn be either coupon bonds or bonds
registrable as to principal, or principal and interest, or both.
