§ 12838.9

No contract, lease, license, or any other agreement to which the predecessor entities, continuing entities, and any of their predecessors are a party shall be void or voidable by reason of this measure, but shall continue in full force and effect, with the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation assuming all of the rights, obligations, and duties of the predecessor entities. That assumption by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation shall not in any way affect the rights of the parties to the contract, lease, license, or agreement. Bonds issued by the predecessor entities, continuing entities, and any of their predecessors on or before July 1, 2005, shall become the indebtedness of any newly created entity. Any ongoing obligations or responsibilities of the predecessor entities, continuing entities, and any of their predecessors for managing and maintaining bond issuances shall be transferred to the newly created entity without impairment to any security contained in the bond instrument.
