§ 44.85.130. Effect of obligations.

 (a) Bonds and notes issued under this chapter are not a debt or liability of the state and do not create or constitute an indebtedness, liability, or obligation of the state, nor do they constitute a pledge of the faith and credit of the state. All bonds and notes issued under this chapter, unless funded or refunded by bonds or notes of the bond bank authority, are general obligations of the authority to which the full faith and credit of the authority are pledged to the payments of them, except to the extent provided by the resolution authorizing the issuance of them. Each bond and note must contain on its face a statement to the effect that the bond bank authority is obligated to pay the principal and interest on the instrument only from revenues or funds of the bond bank authority and that the state is not obligated to pay the principal or interest and that neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the state is pledged to the payment of the principal of or the interest on the bond or note.

 (b) The state pledges to and agrees with the holders of the bonds or notes issued under this chapter that the state will not limit or restrict the rights vested in the bond bank authority to purchase, acquire, hold, sell, or dispose of municipal bonds or other investments or to make loans to political subdivisions or to establish and collect fees or other charges convenient or necessary to produce sufficient revenues to meet the expenses of operation of the bond bank authority and to fulfill the terms of any agreement made with the holders of its bonds or notes or in any way impair the rights or remedies of the holders of the bonds or notes until the bonds or notes, together with the interest on the bonds or notes, and interest on unpaid installments of interest, and all costs and expenses in connection with an action or proceeding by or on behalf of the holders, are fully met, paid and discharged.
