(b)
(1) The board's obligations under the lease agreement and under any other contract entered into pursuant to this subchapter shall be obligations only of the board, and in no event shall they constitute obligations for which the faith and credit of the State of Arkansas or any of its revenues are pledged.
(2) No member of the board shall be personally liable to perform any obligations under the lease agreement or under any other contract entered into pursuant to this subchapter or for any damages sustained by any person in connection with the lease agreement, any other contract entered into, or any actions taken pursuant to this subchapter unless he or she shall have acted with a corrupt intent.
(c) The lease agreement or any other contract entered into pursuant to this subchapter may provide that the obligations of the board are limited obligations payable solely from bank funds, or it may provide that the board's obligations are general obligations payable from any funds, including appropriated funds, available to the board.
(d) The lease agreement shall not pledge to the payment of rent any funds appropriated or to be appropriated from the State Treasury.

(f)
(1) The lease agreement may give the board an option, a right of first refusal, to repurchase the property covered by the lease agreement, or a portion thereof, for a purchase price equal to not less than its fair market value at the time the option is exercised, determined as provided in § 6-62-610, and upon such other terms and conditions as provided therein.
