The trustee shall invest amounts held by the trustee at the direction of the State Treasurer.

The leases may be for a term that ends on the date on which all amounts due under a financing agreement have been paid or provision for payment has been made, or 10 years after the last scheduled payment under a financing agreement, whichever is later. The leases may grant the trustee or lender the right to evict the state and exclude it from possession of the real property for the term of the lease if the state fails to pay when due the amounts scheduled to be paid under a financing agreement or otherwise defaults under a financing agreement. Upon default, the trustee or lender may sublease the real property to third parties and apply any rentals toward payments scheduled to be made under a financing agreement.

However, failure to file the statement does not affect the perfection of the security interest.
(g) Pledge for the benefit of trustees and lenders any amounts that are deposited with a trustee in accordance with a financing agreement. The pledge is valid and binding from the time it is made. Amounts pledged are subject to the lien of the pledge immediately without filing, physical delivery or other act. The lien of the pledge is superior to all other claims and liens of any kind whatsoever.
(h) Bill any state agency that benefits from a financing agreement for an appropriate share of the financing costs on a monthly or other periodic basis, and deposit payments received in connection with the billings with a trustee as security for a financing agreement. Any state agency receiving such a bill shall pay the amounts billed from the first amounts legally available to it. The director shall allocate in appropriate shares the financing costs of a financing agreement entered into for the purpose described in ORS 283.085 (3)(d) among all state agencies based on their payroll costs.

(3) Notwithstanding any authority in a provision of law other than ORS 283.085 to 283.092, a state agency may not enter into a financing agreement in an amount that exceeds $100,000. [2013 c.767 §2; 2015 c.767 §83; 2015 c.828 §24]
