In the discretion of the Authority, any bonds issued under the
provision of this article may be secured by a trust agreement by and
between the Authority and a participating institution of higher
education or noncollegiate educational institution or a participating
hospital and a corporate trustee or trustees, which may be any trust
company or bank having the powers of a trust company within or without
the State. Such trust agreement or the resolution providing for the
issuance of such bonds may contain a pledge or assignment of the
revenues to be received or proceeds of any contract or contracts
pledged, and may serve to convey or mortgage the project or any portion
thereof, or in lieu thereof, may contain provisions for the creation of
a collateral account. Such trust agreement or resolution providing for
the issuance of such bonds 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
particularly such provisions as have hereinabove been specifically
authorized to be included in any resolution or resolutions of the
Authority authorizing bonds thereof. Any such trust agreement may set
forth the rights and remedies of the bondholders and of the trustee or
trustees, and may restrict the individual right of action by
bondholders. In addition to the foregoing, any such trust agreement or
resolution may contain such other provisions as the Authority may deem
reasonable and proper for the security of the bondholders. All expenses
incurred in carrying out the provisions of such trust agreement or
resolution may be treated as a part of the cost of the operation of a
project.
