OR Rev Stat § 128.322 (2021)
2021 Oregon Revised Statutes|Volume : 03 - Landlord-Tenant, Domestic Relations, Probate|Chapter 128 - Trusts; Charitable Activities|Section 128.322 - Appropriation for expenditure or accumulation of endowment fund; rules of construction.

(1) Subject to subsection (4) of this section and the intent of a donor expressed in the gift instrument, an institution may appropriate for expenditure or accumulate so much of an endowment fund as the institution determines is prudent for the uses, benefits, purposes and duration for which the endowment fund is established. Unless stated otherwise in the gift instrument, the assets in an endowment fund are donor-restricted assets until appropriated for expenditure by the institution. In making a determination to appropriate or accumulate, the institution shall act in good faith, with the care that an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances, and shall consider, if relevant, the following factors: (a) The duration and preservation of the endowment fund; (b) The purposes of the institution and the endowment fund; (c) General economic conditions; (d) The possible effect of inflation or deflation; (e) The expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments; (f) Other resources of the institution; and (g) The investment policy of the institution. (2) To limit the authority to appropriate for expenditure or accumulate under subsection (1) of this section, a gift instrument must specifically state the limitation. (3) Terms in a gift instrument designating a gift as an endowment, or a direction or authorization in the gift instrument to use only "income," "interest," "dividends" or "rents, issues or profits," or "to preserve the principal intact," or words of similar import: (a) Create an endowment fund of permanent duration unless other language in the gift instrument limits the duration or purpose of the fund; and (b) Do not otherwise limit the authority to appropriate for expenditure or accumulate under subsection (1) of this section. (4) The appropriation for expenditure in any year of an amount greater than seven percent of the fair market value of an endowment fund, calculated on the basis of market values determined at least quarterly and averaged over a period of not less than three years immediately preceding the year in which the appropriation for expenditure was made, creates a rebuttable presumption of imprudence. For an endowment fund in existence for fewer than three years, the fair market value of the endowment fund must be calculated for the period the endowment fund has been in existence. This subsection does not: (a) Apply to an appropriation for expenditure permitted under law other than ORS 128.305 to 128.336 or by the gift instrument; or (b) Create a presumption of prudence for an appropriation for expenditure of an amount less than or equal to seven percent of the fair market value of the endowment fund.

2021 Oregon Revised Statutes|Volume : 03 - Landlord-Tenant, Domestic Relations, Probate|Chapter 128 - Trusts; Charitable Activities|Section 128.326 - Delegation of management and investment functions.

(1) Subject to any specific limitation set forth in a gift instrument or in law other than ORS 128.305 to 128.336, an institution may delegate to an external agent the management and investment of an institutional fund to the extent that an institution could prudently delegate under the circumstances. An institution shall act in good faith, with the care that an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances, in: (a) Selecting an agent; (b) Establishing the scope and terms of the delegation, consistent with the purposes of the institution and the institutional fund; and (c) Periodically reviewing the agent’s actions in order to monitor the agent’s performance and compliance with the scope and terms of the delegation. (2) In performing a delegated function, an agent owes a duty to the institution to exercise reasonable care to comply with the scope and terms of the delegation. (3) An institution that complies with subsection (1) of this section is not liable for the decisions or actions of an agent to which the function was delegated. (4) By accepting delegation of a management or investment function from an institution that is subject to the laws of this state, an agent submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of this state in all proceedings arising from or related to the delegation or the performance of the delegated function. (5) An institution may delegate management and investment functions to its committees, officers or employees as authorized by law of this state other than ORS 128.305 to 128.336. [2007 c.554 §4]
OR Rev Stat § 128.328 (2021)
2021 Oregon Revised Statutes|Volume : 03 - Landlord-Tenant, Domestic Relations, Probate|Chapter 128 - Trusts; Charitable Activities|Section 128.328 - Release or modification of restrictions on management, investment or purpose.

(1) If the donor consents in a record, an institution may release or modify, in whole or in part, a restriction contained in a gift instrument on the management, investment or purpose of an institutional fund. A release or modification may not allow a fund to be used for a purpose other than a charitable purpose of the institution. (2) The court, upon application of an institution, may modify a restriction contained in a gift instrument regarding the management or investment of an institutional fund if the restriction has become impracticable or wasteful, the restriction impairs the management or investment of the fund or, because of circumstances not anticipated by the donor, a modification of a restriction will further the purposes of the fund. The institution shall notify the Attorney General of the application, and the Attorney General must be given an opportunity to be heard. To the extent practicable, any modification must be made in accordance with the donor’s probable intention. (3) If a particular charitable purpose or a restriction contained in a gift instrument on the use of an institutional fund becomes unlawful, impracticable, impossible to achieve or wasteful, the court, upon application of an institution, may modify the purpose of the fund or the restriction on the use of the fund in a manner consistent with the charitable purposes expressed in the gift instrument. The institution shall notify the Attorney General of the application, and the Attorney General must be given an opportunity to be heard. (4) If an institution determines that a restriction contained in a gift instrument on the management, investment or purpose of an institutional fund is unlawful, impracticable, impossible to achieve or wasteful, the institution, within 60 days after notification to the Attorney General, may release or modify the restriction, in whole or part, if: (a) The institutional fund subject to the restriction has a total value of less than $25,000; (b) More than 20 years have elapsed since the fund was established; and (c) The institution uses the property in a manner consistent with the charitable purposes expressed in the gift instrument. (5) The provisions of this section apply to property and other interests given by private donors as a gift to a public body, as defined by ORS 174.109, or to any instrumentality of a public body. This subsection does not limit any other authority that a public body or an instrumentality of a public body may have to release or modify a restriction contained in a gift instrument on the management, investment or purpose of funds.
