§ 32:1-140.

The bonds delivered to the two States pursuant to this act and the concurrent act

of the State of New Jersey 1 shall be direct and general obligations of the Port Authority, and its full faith

and credit shall be pledged for the prompt payment of the principal and interest thereof. The payment of the principal and interest thereof shall be secured by the general

reserve fund of the Port Authority, authorized by chapter five of the laws of New

Jersey of one thousand nine hundred and thirty-one and chapter forty-eight of the

laws of New York of one thousand nine hundred and thirty-one; and said general reserve

fund shall be pledged as security for the payment of the principal and interest of

said bonds and for the fulfillment of other undertakings assumed by the Port Authority

to or for the benefit of the holders of said bonds. Such pledge, however, shall be subject to the right of the Port Authority to pledge

said general reserve fund as security for any other bonds, notes or evidences of indebtedness

whatsoever hereafter issued by the Authority as security for which it may at the time

be authorized to pledge the said general reserve fund, and also subject to the right

of the Port Authority to use the moneys in said general reserve fund to meet, pay

or otherwise fulfill any of its obligations under or in connection with any bonds,

notes or other evidences of indebtedness as security for which said general reserve

fund has heretofore been or is now pledged or for which said general reserve fund

may hereafter be pledged. Moreover, no greater rights in or to said general reserve fund shall be granted

to or conferred upon the holders of the bonds delivered to the two States pursuant

to this act and the concurrent act of the State of New York than have been granted

to and conferred upon the holders of general and refunding bonds of the Port Authority

issued pursuant to the resolution of the Port Authority adopted March eighteenth,

one thousand nine hundred and thirty-five, and amended March twenty-fifth, one thousand

nine hundred and thirty-five and September sixteenth, one thousand nine hundred and

forty-three. The bonds delivered to the two States pursuant to this act and the concurrent act

of the State of New York shall be dated as of a date not more than thirty days subsequent

to the date on which delivery is made or tendered, shall mature forty years from their

date, and shall bear interest at the rate of one and one-half per centum (1 1 / 2 %) per annum. Said bonds shall be subject to redemption at the option of the Port Authority, in

whole or in part, on any interest payment date or dates at one hundred per centum

(100%) of their par value, plus accrued interest to the date set for redemption. Except as hereinbefore specifically provided, the Port Authority shall, by resolution,

determine the form, characteristics and all other matters in connection with said

bonds, including without limiting the generality hereof, the denominations in which

they shall be issued, provisions with respect to the exchange of bonds of one denomination

into bonds of another denomination, provisions with respect to the issuance of temporary

bonds and the exchange thereof for definitive bonds, provisions with respect to the

establishment of a sinking fund or sinking funds and for the use of the moneys in

sinking fund to purchase or redeem bonds prior to their maturity, provisions with

respect to the place of payment, provisions with respect to notice of redemption,
