Section 2511. Security for bonds or notes  


Latest version.
  • 1. The principal of and
      interest on any bonds or notes issued by the authority may be secured by
      a pledge of any revenues and  receipts  of  the  authority  and  may  be
      secured  by  a  lease  or other instrument covering all or any part of a
      sports facility, including any additions, improvements, extensions to or
      enlargements of any sports facilities thereafter made.
        2. Bonds or notes issued for a sports facility may also be secured  by
      an  assignment of any lease of such sports facility and by an assignment
      of the revenues and receipts derived by  the  authority  from  any  such
      lease.
        3.  Each  pledge, agreement, mortgage or other instrument made for the
      benefit or security of any of the bonds or notes of the authority  shall
      continue  effective  until the principal of and interest on the bonds or
      notes for the benefit of which the same were made shall have been  fully
      paid,  or  until  provision shall have been made for such payment in the
      manner provided in the resolution or resolutions under  which  the  same
      may be authorized.
        4.  The  authority may provide in any proceedings under which bonds or
      notes may be authorized for the time and manner of  and  the  requisites
      for  disbursements to be made for the cost of a sports facility, and for
      all certificates and approvals of construction and disbursements as  the
      authority shall deem necessary.
        5.  Any  pledge  of  earnings,  revenues  or  other moneys made by the
      authority shall be valid and binding from the time when  the  pledge  is
      made;  the  earnings, 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
      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.  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  any  sports  facility  and  the  custody, safeguarding and
      application of all moneys. The  authority  may  provide  by  such  trust
      indenture  for the payment of the proceeds of the bonds and the revenues
      of any such sports facility 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 any such sports facility.
      If the bonds shall be secured by a trust indenture the bondholders shall
      have no authority to appoint a separate trustee to represent them.
