19 otherwise as provided therein and in the Indenture. The Bonds and interest thereon shall never
20 constitute an indebtedness of the City within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory
21 limitation and shall never constitute nor give rise to a pecuniary liability of the City or a charge
22 against its general credit or taxing powers, and such fact shall be plainly stated on the face of each
23 Bond. The City shall have no obligation with respect to the Project, and all costs, expenses,
