The governmental unit shall not pay or promise to pay any debt or meet any financial obligation to any person at any time in relation to a business and industrial facility financed in whole or in part by the issue of bonds, except from moneys received or to be received under the provisions of a lease or trust indenture entered into under this chapter or derived from the exercise of the governmental unit's rights under such instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, the governmental unit may accept and expend with respect to an industrial facility any gifts or grants received from any source in accordance with the terms of such gifts or grants.
