§  1458. Bonds of the authority. 1. The authority shall have the power  and is hereby authorized from time to time to issue its negotiable bonds  in conformity with applicable provisions of the uniform commercial  code  for   any  purpose  mentioned  in  section  one  thousand  four  hundred  eighty-five, including the acquisition, construction, reconstruction and  repair of personal and real property of all kinds deemed by the board to  be necessary or desirable to carry out such purpose, as well as  to  pay  such  expenses  as  may be deemed by the board necessary or desirable to  the financing thereof and placing the project or projects  in  operation  in  the  aggregate  principal  amount  of not exceeding two and one-half  million dollars outstanding at any one time.  The authority  shall  have  power from time to time whenever it deems refunding expedient, to refund  any bonds by the issuance of new bonds, whether the bonds to be refunded  have  or  have  not  matured, and may issue bonds partly to refund bonds  then outstanding and partly for any other purpose hereinabove described.  The refunding bonds may be exchanged for the bonds to be refunded,  with  such  cash adjustments as may be agreed, or may be sold and the proceeds  applied to the purchase or payment of  the  bonds  to  be  refunded.  In  computing  the  total  amount of bonds of the authority which may at any  time be outstanding the amount of the outstanding bonds to  be  refunded  from  the proceeds of the sale of new bonds or by exchange for new bonds  shall be excluded. Except as may otherwise be expressly provided by  the  authority,  the bonds of every issue shall be general obligations of the  authority payable out of  any  moneys  or  revenues  of  the  authority,  subject  only  to  any  agreements  with the holders of particular bonds  pledging any particular moneys or revenues.    2. The bonds shall be authorized by resolution of the board and  shall  bear  such  date  or  dates, mature at such time or times, not exceeding  thirty years from their respective dates, bear interest at such rate  or  rates,  not  exceeding  five  per  centum  per annum payable annually or  semi-annually, be in such denominations, be in such form, either  coupon  or  registered,  carry such registration privileges, be executed in such  manner, be payable in lawful money of the United States  of  America  at  such  place  or  places,  and be subject to such terms of redemption, as  such resolution or resolutions may provide. The bonds  may  be  sold  at  public  or  private sale for such price or prices as the authority shall  determine, but which shall not at the time of sale yield more than  five  per centum per annum.    3. Any resolution or resolutions authorizing any bonds or any issue of  bonds may contain provisions, which shall be a part of the contract with  the holders of the bonds thereby authorized, as to    (a)  pledging all or any part of the revenues of a project or projects  to secure the payment of the bonds, subject to such agreements with bond  holders as may then exist;    (b) the rentals, fees and other charges to be charged, and the amounts  to be raised in each year thereby, and the use and  disposition  of  the  revenues;    (c) the setting aside of reserves or sinking funds, and the regulation  and disposition thereof;    (d) limitations on the right of the authority to restrict and regulate  the use of a project;    (e)  limitations  on  the purpose to which the proceeds or sale of any  issue of bonds then or thereafter  to  be  issued  may  be  applied  and  pledging such proceeds to secure the payment of the bond or of any issue  of the bonds;    (f)  limitations  on  the issuance of additional bonds; the terms upon  which additional bonds may be  issued  and  secured;  the  refunding  of  outstanding or other bonds;(g)  the  procedure,  if  any, by which the terms of any contract with  bondholders may be amended or abrogated, the amount of bonds the holders  of which must consent thereto, and the manner in which such consent  may  be given;    (h)  limitations  on the amount of moneys derived from a project to be  expended  for  operating,  administrative  or  other  expenses  of   the  authority;    (i) vesting in a trustee or trustees such property, rights, powers and  duties  in trust as the authority may determine which may include any or  all of the rights, powers and duties of the  trustee  appointed  by  the  bondholders  pursuant  to section one thousand four hundred ninety-seven  hereof, and limiting or abrogating  the  right  of  the  bondholders  to  appoint  a trustee under said section or limiting the rights, duties and  powers of such trustee;    (j) any other matters, of like or different character,  which  in  any  way affect the security or protection of the bonds.    4.  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 the 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.    5. Neither the members of the authority 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.    6. The authority shall have power out of any funds available  therefor  to  purchase bonds. The authority may hold, cancel or resell such bonds,  subject to and in accordance with agreements with bondholders.    7. In the discretion of the authority, the bonds may be secured  by  a  trust  indenture  by  and between the authority and a corporate trustee,  which may be any trust company or bank having  the  powers  of  a  trust  company  in the state of New York. Such trust indenture may contain such  provisions for protecting and enforcing the rights and remedies  of  the  bondholders as may be reasonable and proper and not in violation of law,  including  covenants  setting  forth  the  duties  of  the  authority in  relation  to  the  construction,  maintenance,  operation,  repair   and  insurance  of the project or projects, and the custody, safeguarding and  application of all moneys, and may provide that the project or  projects  shall  be constructed and paid for under the supervision and approval of  consulting engineers. Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  section  one  thousand  four  hundred  eighty-nine,  the authority may provide by such  trust indenture for the payment of the proceeds of  the  bonds  and  the  revenues  of  the  project  or  projects to the trustee under such trust  indenture or other  depository,  and  for  the  method  of  disbursement  thereof,  with such safeguards and restrictions as it may determine. All  expenses incurred in carrying out such trust indenture may be treated as  a part of the cost of maintenance, operation, and repairs of the project  or projects. If the bonds shall be secured by  a  trust  indenture,  the  bondholders  shall  have  no  authority to appoint a separate trustee to  represent them, and the trustee under such trust  indenture  shall  have  and  possess  all  of  the  powers  which  are  conferred by section one  thousand  four  hundred  ninety-seven  upon  a  trustee   appointed   by  bondholders.
