6. In addition to the powers herein conferred upon the authority to
secure its bonds, the authority shall have power in connection with the
issuance of bonds to adopt resolutions and enter into such trust

its revenues or other monies or property, including the mortgaging of
any property and the entrusting, pledging or creation of any other
security interest in any such revenues, monies or property and the doing

a price not exceeding (a) if the bonds are then redeemable, the
redemption price then applicable plus accrued interest to the next
interest payment date, or (b) if the bonds are not then redeemable, the
redemption price applicable on the first date after such purchase upon
which the bonds become subject to redemption plus accrued interest to
the next interest payment date. Bonds so purchased shall thereupon be
cancelled.
