The authority shall have the power and is hereby authorized, for the purposes of this subtitle, to issue at one time or in series from time to time loans to lenders bonds and loans to lenders notes issued in anticipation of the issuance of such loans to lenders bonds, including renewals thereof, in an aggregate principal amount which shall not at any one time exceed fifty million dollars, excluding loans to lenders bonds issued to refund outstanding loans to lenders bonds.
2. Except as may otherwise be expressly provided by the authority, all loans to lenders bonds and notes shall be limited obligations of the authority and payable solely from the revenues derived by the authority from loans to lenders.
3. Loans to lenders bonds and notes shall be authorized by resolution of the authority and bear such date or dates, shall mature at such time or times, shall bear interest at such rate or rates, shall be of such denominations, shall be in such form, carry such registration privileges, be executed in such manner, be payable in lawful money of the United States of America and at such terms of redemption prior to maturity as may be provided by such resolution or resolutions with respect to such bonds or notes, as the case may be; provided, however that the maximum maturity of such bonds shall not exceed thirty years from the date thereof and the maximum maturity of such notes or any renewals thereof shall not exceed seven years from the date of the original issue of such notes.
