      termination of the tax exemption, whether by expiration or by any  other
      cause, a redevelopment company, heretofore or hereafter organized, shall
      not have power to sell the real property constituting the project or any
      portion or portions thereof without the consent of the local legislative
      body.
        2.  If an action be brought to foreclose a mortgage or tax lien upon a
      redevelopment project, heretofore or hereafter  authorized  pursuant  to
      this  article,  and  the real property constituting the project shall be
      acquired at the foreclosure sale or from the mortgagee  or  lienor  that
      had  acquired  the  property of such sale, or by a conveyance in lieu of
      such sale,  by  a  redevelopment  company  organized  pursuant  to  this
      article,  or by the federal government or an instrumentality thereof, or
      by a corporation which is, or by agreement has  become  subject  to  the
      supervision  of  the  superintendent  of  banks or the superintendent of
      insurance, such successor in interest shall acquire such project subject
      to all provisions of the contract regulating such project and  shall  be
      entitled to all of the benefits contained in such contract. In all other
      cases  of  sale  at  foreclosure  or  forced  sale,  the  real  property
      constituting the project or any portion or  portions  thereof  shall  be
      sold  free  of  all restrictions, except such covenants running with the
      land as may be contained in the contract regulating the project,  or  in
      the deed, if any, given by the municipality to the redevelopment company
      affecting all or any portion of the real property upon which the project
      is  situated, and the tax exemption, if any, theretofore granted to such
      project pursuant to such contract shall immediately terminate.
