pursuant to section one thousand twenty-four of this article.

3. Rental assistance payments pursuant to this article may be pledged
by the sponsor in connection with the financing or refinancing of a

than that prescribed in the contract.

accepting any other form of governmental subsidy or assistance, but any
contract pursuant to this article shall provide for appropriate
