The proceedings authorizing any bonds hereunder and any mortgage securing such bonds may provide the procedure and remedies in the event of default in payment of the principal of or the interest on such bonds or in the performance of any agreement. No breach of any such agreement shall impose any pecuniary liability upon a county or any charge upon its general credit or against its taxing powers.
