3. The form and manner of the said guarantee shall be determined by the Lieutenant Governor in Council, and the guarantee shall be signed by the Provincial Treasurer or by such officer or person as shall be designated for that purpose by the Lieutenant Governor in Council, and upon the guarantee being so signed the Province of Alberta

shall become liable upon the said guarantee, and the Lieutenant Governor in Council is hereby authorized to make arrangements for supplying the money necessary to fulfil the requirements of the said guarantee and to advance the amount necessary for that purpose out of the general revenue of the province, and in the hands of any lender or any lawful holder of any note or notes of the said board, the said guarantee or guarantees so signed shall be conclusive evidence that the requirements of this Act with respect to said guarantee and of all other matters relating thereto have been complied with.

4. Any sum so borrowed with interest thereon shall be repaid by the said board out of the proceeds of any rate levied or to be levied, for hail insurance in the province, under the provisions of The Municipal Co-operative Hail Insurance Act, and such repayment shall be made in such sums and over such periods as may be agreed upon between the lender and the said board with the approval of the Lieutenant Governor in Council.
