SECTION 2: The approval herein given is by virtue of the provisions of Section 25(f) of the Act, and is not to be construed as any undertaking by the City of Lubbock. The City, as sponsor of the Issuer is governed by the provisions of the Texas Constitution (Article XI, Section 5 and 7) which prohibit the creation of debt (any obligation payable from ad valorem taxes that is not payable within the current fiscal year) without provision being made for its payment for the levy of taxes at the time the obligation is incurred.

The holders of bonds shall look only to the funds established by the Indenture for .the payment of the obligation evidenced thereby and by the attached interest coupons. r i None of the bonds constitute a debt of the State, the City of Lubbock, the Issuer or of any other political subdivision or agency of this State or a pledge of the faith and credit of any of them, but such bonds and interest thereon shall be payable solely from the said revenues and funds which are pledged to such purpose in the Indenture. Neither Issuer or any political subdivision or agency of the State shall be obligated to pay the same or the interest thereon from any other source; neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the State, the City of Lubbock or any political subdivision or agency thereof is pledged to the payment of the principal of or the interest on such bonds.
