(a) The authority shall fix, revise, charge, and collect rents for the use of each project owned by the authority, and may contract with any person, partnership, association, corporation, or other body, whether public or private, for that purpose. Any lease entered into by the authority with a participating party, and each agreement, note, or other instrument evidencing the obligations of a participating party to the authority, shall provide that the rents or principal, interest, and other charges payable by the participating party shall be sufficient to provide for all of the following:
(1) To pay the principal, sinking fund payments, if any, premiums, if any, and the interest on outstanding bonds of the authority issued in respect of the project when due and payable.
(2) To create and maintain reserves that may, but need not necessarily be required or provided for, in the resolution relating to the revenue bonds of the authority.
(3) To pay its share of the administrative costs and expenses of the authority.
(b) The authority shall pledge the revenues derived and to be derived from a project or from a participating party for the purposes specified in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) of subdivision (a). The authority may issue additional revenue bonds that may be ranked on a parity with other bonds relating to the project to the extent, and under the terms and conditions provided, in the bond resolution.
(c) The authority and a participating party may include in any lease or agreement between them or with a credit provider any terms and conditions relating to insurance, liquidity, or credit enhancement of the bonds, or any other lawful terms and conditions the authority deems necessary or desirable to facilitate the purposes of this chapter.
