Section 21-21A-11 - Trust agreements authorized.

In the discretion of the foundation, any bonds issued under the provisions of the Educational Assistance Act may be secured by a trust agreement by and between the foundation and a corporate trustee, which may be a bank or trust company having trust powers within or without the state. The trust agreement or the resolution providing for the issuance of the bonds may pledge or assign all or any part of the revenues or assets of the foundation, including without limitation educational loan receipts, educational loans, federal interest subsidies, special allowance payments and educational loan commitments; temporary loans, contracts, agreements and other security or investment obligations; the fees or charges made or received by the foundation; the money received in payment of educational loans and interest on that money, including the proceeds of insurance thereon; and any other money received or due to be received by the foundation. The trust agreement or resolution may contain such provisions for protecting and enforcing the rights and remedies of the holders of bonds as may be reasonable and proper and not in violation of law, including covenants setting forth the duties of the foundation in relation to the purposes to which bond proceeds may be applied, the disposition or pledging of the revenues or assets of the foundation and the custody, safeguarding and application of all money. It shall be lawful for any bank or trust company incorporated under the laws of the state that may act as depository of the proceeds of bond revenues or other money pursuant to the Educational Assistance Act to furnish such indemnifying bonds or to pledge such securities as may be required by the foundation. The trust agreement or resolution may set forth the rights and remedies of the holders of any bonds and of the trustee and may restrict the individual right of action by any bondholders. The trust agreement or resolution may contain such other provisions as the foundation deems reasonable and proper for the security of the holders of any bonds. All expenses incurred in carrying out the provisions of the trust agreement or resolution may be paid from the revenues or assets pledged or assigned to the payment of the principal of and the interest on bonds or from any other funds available to the foundation.
