The Public Agency is duly authorized to use the proceeds of the Loan to finance, refinance or reimburse the costs of acquiring, constructing and equipping the Project [finance the Public Agency Expenses]. 4. The Loan Agreement creates a valid pledge of and lien upon the Designated Revenues (as defined in the Loan Agreement). 5. Neither the execution and delivery of the Loan Agreement, receipt of the Loan nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, nor the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement conflicts with or results in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Constitution or laws of the State (including any limit on indebtedness), or any corporate restriction or any agreement, instrument or governmental or court order to which the Public Agency is now a party or by which it is bound or constitutes a default under any of the foregoing. 6.
