10. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other law to the contrary, the State shall indemnify and save harmless the authority, its members or employees from any actions, claims, judgments or awards of any type, arising from or as the result of any act or omission by or on behalf of the South Jersey Port Corporation or the subsidiary corporation or in relation to the port facilities transferred to the authority pursuant to this act or arising from or as the result of the condition of those facilities. The State may, in addition, enter into an agreement with the authority to provide for the payment of liability insurance premiums for the provision of liability insurance coverage for the authority, its members or employees with respect to any such action or claim instituted or asserted after the transfer of the port facilities. The amount and terms of such liability coverage shall be subject to the approval of the State Treasurer. The State shall, in addition, provide for the payment of annual administrative expenses of the authority associated with the ownership and operation of port facilities, in an amount authorized by the State Treasurer.
