"Subject to prior liens and pledges (and to the obligation of the port authority to apply revenues to the maintenance of its general reserve fund in the amount prescribed by the general reserve fund statutes), the revenues from facilities established, constructed, acquired or otherwise effectuated through the issuance or sale of bonds of the port authority secured in whole or in part by a pledge of its general reserve fund or any portion thereof may be pledged in whole or in part as security for or applied by it to any of the purposes of this act, including the repayment with interest of any moneys which it may raise upon bonds issued or incurred from time to time for any of the purposes of this act or upon bonds secured in whole or in part by the pledge of the revenues of the port authority from any industrial development project or facility or any portion thereof or upon bonds both so issued or incurred and so secured; and said revenues may be applied by the port authority to the fulfillment of any other undertakings which it may assume to or for the benefit of the holders of such bonds. "§5. In all cases where the port authority has raised or shall hereafter raise moneys for any of the purposes of this act by the issue and sale of bonds which are secured in whole or in part by a pledge of the general reserve fund or any portion thereof, the surplus revenues from industrial development projects or facilities financed in whole or in part out of the proceeds of such bonds and the surplus revenues from any other port authority facility the surplus revenues of which at such time may be payable into the general reserve fund shall be pooled and applied by the port authority to the establishment and maintenance of the general reserve fund in an amount equal to onetenth of the par value of all bonds legal for investment, as defined in the general reserve fund statutes, issued by the port authority and currently outstanding, including such bonds issued for any of the purposes of this act; and all such moneys in said general reserve fund may be pledged and applied in the manner provided in the general reserve fund statutes. "In the event that any time the balance of moneys theretofore paid into the general reserve fund and not applied therefrom shall exceed an amount equal to one-tenth of the par value of all bonds upon the principal amount of which the amount of the general reserve fund is calculated, by reason of the retirement of bonds issued or incurred from time to time for any of the purposes of this act the par value of which had theretofore been included in the computation of said amount of the general reserve fund, then the port authority may pledge or apply such excess for and only for the purposes for which it is authorized by the general reserve fund statutes to pledge the moneys in the general reserve fund and such pledge may be made in advance of the time when such excess may occur. "§ 6. The two states covenant and agree with each other and with the holders of any bonds issued by the port authority for the purposes of this act, that so long as any of such bonds remain outstanding and unpaid and the holders thereof shall not have given their consent as provided in their contract with the port authority, the two states will not diminish or impair the power of the port authority to establish, levy and collect rentals, fares, fees or other charges in connection with industrial development projects or facilities or any other facility
