marketability of and low interest on such bonds and to generate

funds sufficient to fulfill the terms of any other contracts or

agreements made by the Authority. The Authority may pledge its

collected for the use of any products and services afforded by the

Authority, provided, that the State of Oklahoma does hereby pledge

to and agree with the purchasers and successive holders of the bonds

issued hereunder that the state will not limit or alter the power

hereby vested in the Authority to establish, levy and collect such

rents, rates and other charges as will produce revenue sufficient to

meet the operation, maintenance and other expenses set forth in the

preceding paragraph of this Section 13, or in any way to impair the

rights or remedies of the holders of the bonds, or of any person in

their behalf, until the bonds, together with the interest thereon,

with interest on unpaid installments of interest and all costs and

expenses in connection with any action or proceedings by or on

behalf of the bondholders and all other obligations of the Authority

in connection with such bonds are fully met and discharged.
