(a) The principal of and the interest on the bonds shall be secured by a pledge of the revenues out of which the bonds shall be made payable and by a pledge of the lease agreement covering the project from which revenues so pledged shall be derived and of the rental therefrom and may be secured by an indenture covering such project.
The trustee under any indenture may be a trust company or bank having trust powers, whether located within or without the state. The indenture may contain any agreements and provisions customarily contained in instruments securing evidences of indebtedness including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, provisions respecting the collection, segregation and application of the rental from any project covered by such indenture, the terms to be incorporated in the lease agreement respecting such project, the maintenance and insurance of such project, the creation and maintenance of special funds from the rental of such project, and the rights and remedies available in the event of default to the holders of the bonds or the trustee under the indenture all as the board shall deem advisable and as shall not be in conflict with the provisions of this chapter; provided, however, that in making any such agreements or provisions the corporation shall not have the power to obligate itself except with respect to projects and the application of the revenues therefrom.
(b) If there shall be any default by the corporation in payment of the principal of or the interest on the bonds or in any of the agreements on the part of the corporation that may properly be included in any indenture securing the bonds, any holder of any of the bonds or any of the coupons or the trustee under any indenture, if so authorized in such indenture, may by civil action, mandamus or other proceeding enforce payment of such principal or interest and compel performance of all duties of the board and officers of the corporation and shall be entitled as a matter of right and regardless of the sufficiency of any such security to the appointment of a receiver with all the powers of such receiver for the operation and maintenance of the project covered by such indenture and the collection, segregation and application of rents therefrom; provided, that any such indenture shall not be subject to foreclosure and shall not be construed so as to authorize the sale of any project covered thereby or any part thereof in satisfaction of the bonds secured thereby. The indenture may contain provisions regarding the rights and remedies of any trustee thereunder and the holders of the bonds and the coupons and may contain provisions restricting the individual rights of action of the holders of the bonds and coupons.
