1. Nothing contained in sections 348.250 to 348.275 shall be construed as a restriction or limitation upon any powers that the corporation might otherwise have under chapter 355, and the provisions of sections 348.250 to 348.275 are cumulative to such powers.
2. Nothing in sections 348.250 to 348.275 shall be construed as allowing the board to sell the corporation or substantially all of the assets of the corporation, or to merge the corporation with another institution, without prior authorization by the general assembly.
3. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 23.253 to the contrary, the provisions of sections 348.250 to 348.275 shall not sunset.
4. The provisions of sections 348.250 to 348.275 shall not terminate before the satisfaction of all outstanding obligations, notes, and bonds provided for under sections 348.250 to 348.275.
5. If any provision of this act * or the application thereof is held invalid, the invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of the act * that can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this act * are severable. Insofar as the provisions of sections 348.250 to 348.275 are inconsistent with the provisions of any other law, general, specific or local, the provisions of sections 348.250 to 348.275 shall be controlling.
