(a) Additional rights.--An obligee of an authority shall have the right, in addition to all other rights which may be conferred on the obligee, subject only to any contractual restrictions binding upon the obligee:
(1) By mandamus, suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, to compel the authority and the members, officers, agents or employees thereof to perform each and every term, provision and covenant contained in any bond or contract of the authority with or for the benefit of the obligee and to require the carrying out of any or all covenants and agreements of the authority and the fulfillment of all duties imposed upon the authority by this chapter.
(2) By proceeding in equity, to obtain an injunction against any acts or things which may be unlawful or the violation of any of the rights of the obligee of the authority.
(3) To require the authority to account as if it were the trustee of an express trust for the obligees of the authority for any pledged revenues received.
(4) To enforce a pledge of or security interest in revenues of the authority securing payment of the bonds against all Commonwealth and local public officials in possession of any revenues at any time, which revenues may be collected directly from such officials upon notice by the obligee of the authority or a trustee for application to the payment of the bonds as and when due for deposits in any sinking, bond or debt service fund established with the trustee at the times and in the amounts specified in the bonds or the resolution or indenture or trust agreement securing the bonds. Any Commonwealth or local public official in possession of any revenues shall make payment against receipt and shall thereby be discharged from any further liability or responsibility for the revenues. If the payment shall be to an obligee of the authority, it shall be made against surrender of the bonds to the payor for delivery to the authority in the case of payment in full; otherwise, it shall be made against production of the bonds for notation thereon of the amount of the payment. The provisions of this section with respect to the enforceability and collection of revenues which secure bonds of the authority shall supersede any contrary or inconsistent statutory provision or rule of law.
(b) Application of section.--This section shall be construed and applied to fulfill the legislative purpose of clarifying and facilitating the financing of the authority of the costs of its transportation system by assuring to the obligees of the authority the full and immediate benefit of the security therefor without delay, diminution or interference based on any statute, decision, ordinance or administrative rule or practice.
