4-a. Any resolution or resolutions authorizing any bonds or any issue
of bonds maturing in not exceeding ten years from their date (hereafter
in this subsection four-a referred to as "short term obligations") may
contain, in addition to all other provisions authorized by this title,
provisions, which shall be a part of the agreement with the holders of
the short term obligations thereby authorized, as to (a) refunding the
short term obligations by the issuance of bonds of the authority either
by the sale of bonds and the application of the proceeds to the payment
of the short term obligations or by the exchange of bonds for the short
term obligations; provided, however, that the authority shall make no
covenant to refund which shall require it to issue bonds, the aggregate
principal amount of which shall exceed by more than ten per centum the
aggregate principal amount of the short term obligations to be refunded
thereby;
(b) satisfying, paying or discharging the short term obligations, at
the election of the authority, by the tender or delivery of bonds of the
authority in exchange therefor; provided, however, that the aggregate
principal amount of bonds shall not exceed by more than ten per centum
the aggregate principal amount of the short term obligations to satisfy,
pay or discharge which the bonds are tendered or delivered;
(c) exchanging or converting the short term obligations, at the
election of the holder thereof, for or into bonds of the authority;
provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of the bonds
shall not exceed by more than ten per centum the aggregate principal
amount of the short term obligations to be exchanged for or converted
into bonds;
(d) pledging bonds of the authority as collateral to secure payment of
the short term obligations and providing for the terms and conditions of
the pledge and manner of enforcing the pledge, which terms and

principal amount of the bonds pledged shall not exceed by more than ten
per centum the aggregate principal amount of the short term obligations
to secure which they are pledged;
(e) depositing bonds in escrow or in trust with a trustee or fiscal
agent or otherwise providing for the issuance and disposition of the
bonds as security for carrying out any provisions in any resolution
adopted pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d)
hereof and providing for the powers and duties of the trustee or fiscal
agent or other depositary and the terms and conditions on which the
bonds are to be issued, held and disposed of;
(f) any other matters of like or different character which relate to
any provision or provisions of any resolution adopted pursuant to the
foregoing paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) hereof.

In computing the amount of bonds of the authority which may be
outstanding at any one time, short term obligations shall be excluded to
the extent that the resolution authorizing the issuance of such short
term obligations shall provide for the issuance of bonds pursuant to
paragraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this subsection, but the bonds
provided to be issued by such resolution shall be included in making
such computation whether or not such bonds are outstanding.
The authority shall have power to make contracts for the future sale
from time to time of short term obligations, by which the purchasers
shall be committed to purchase short term obligations from time to time
on the terms and conditions stated in such contracts, and the authority
shall have power to pay such consideration as it shall deem proper for
such commitments.
5. It is the intention hereof that any pledge of revenues or other
moneys made by the authority shall be valid and binding from the time
when the pledge is made; that revenues or other moneys so pledged and
thereafter received by the authority shall immediately be subject to the
lien of such pledge without any physical delivery thereof or further
act, and that the lien of any such pledge shall be valid and binding as
against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract or
otherwise against the authority, irrespective of whether such parties
have notice thereof. Neither the resolution nor any other instrument by
which a pledge is created need be recorded.
6. Neither the members of the board nor any person executing the bonds
shall be liable personally on the bonds or be subject to any personal
liability or accountability by reason of the issuance thereof.
7. For the purpose of refunding or reducing its debt the authority
shall have power out of any funds available therefor to purchase any
bonds issued by it at a price not more than one hundred and five per
centum of the principal amount thereof and accrued interest. The
authority may hold, cancel or resell such bonds, subject to and in
accordance with agreements with bondholders.
