Any bonds issued pursuant to this title together with the income therefrom as well as the property of the corporation shall at all times be exempt from taxes, except for transfer and estate taxes. The state hereby covenants with the purchasers and with all subsequent holders and transferees of bonds issued by the corporation pursuant to this title, in consideration of the acceptance of and payment for the bonds, that the bonds of the corporation issued pursuant to this title and the income therefrom and all revenues, monies, and other property pledged to secure the payment of such bonds shall at all times be free from taxation, except for transfer and estate taxes.
