Text

On the date (which is hereinafter referred to as “merger date”) of the second regular meeting of the board held pursuant to Section 30251 that follows the meeting referred to in Section 30227 the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transit Authority (herein sometimes referred to as “authority”) shall be merged into the district. Such merger shall be effective upon the recording with the Recorder of the County of Los Angeles of the certificate provided for in Section 31001.
Upon such merger the separate existence of the authority ceases, and the district shall succeed, ipso facto and by operation of law and without other transfer, to all the
rights and property of the authority, and shall be subject to all the legally enforceable debts and liabilities of the authority, in the same manner as if the district had itself incurred them.
All rights of creditors and all liens upon the property of the authority shall be preserved unimpaired, limited in lien to the property affected by such liens immediately prior to the time of the merger.
Any action or proceeding pending by or against the authority may be prosecuted to judgment, which shall bind the district, or the district may be proceeded against or substituted in its place.
For the protection of the holders of the outstanding, unmatured bonds and other evidences of indebtedness of the authority the district shall have power to take all actions and do all things necessary or required for the protection of such holders and for compliance with the terms of such bonds and
other evidences of indebtedness; and the district shall have power to continue all services which the authority is furnishing on the merger date whether such buslines and services are partly or wholly within or without the district, or within or without the County of Los Angeles.
