  4.  The bonds may be payable to bearer, may be registered or coupon bonds, and if payable to bearer may contain such registration privileges as to either principal and interest, or principal only, as may be provided in the resolution authorizing the bonds.

  5.  The bonds and the coupons to be attached thereto, if any, shall be signed in such manner and by such officers as may be directed by resolution.  Bonds signed by an officer who shall hold the office at the time the bonds are signed shall be deemed validly and effectually signed for all purposes, regardless of whether or not any officer shall cease to hold his office prior to the delivery of the bonds and regardless of whether or not any officer shall have held or shall not have held such office on the date ascribed to the bonds.

  6.  The bonds shall be sold in such manner and upon such terms as the board of trustees of the reorganized common sewer district shall determine, subject to the provisions of section 108.170.  The resolution may provide that certain bonds authorized shall be junior or subordinate in any or all respects to other revenue bonds authorized concurrently with, prior to, or after such bonds.
