If the commission acts as the seller's agent,  the seller shall deliver to a fiscal agent agreed on by the seller and the commission monies in an amount reasonably expected to be sufficient to pay for the construction,  renovation or improvement of the facility to be acquired. The monies advanced shall be held in trust until they are expended for construction,  renovation or improvement of the facility. On completion of the facility,  any excess monies shall be returned to the seller. If the commission acts as the agent for construction,  renovation or improvement,  all contracts regarding construction shall be awarded and administered pursuant to title 34,  chapters 2 and 3.
9. May provide that on an event of default,  which is not cured as provided in the installment purchase agreement,  the commission shall vacate the game and fish facility which is the subject of the installment purchase agreement. The superior court has jurisdiction to enforce this provision by an appropriate injunction and other relief.
10. May contain such other terms,  covenants and conditions as the commission prescribes.
11. May be for any term not to exceed thirty years. The installment purchase agreement is not an obligation of this state,  the commission or the department in any fiscal year,  except to the extent that monies for payment on the installment purchase agreement have been appropriated by the legislature and allocated for payment on the installment purchase agreement by the department for that fiscal year and the commission has executed an annual renewal of the installment purchase agreement for that fiscal year. On appropriation,  allocation and annual renewal,  the installment purchase agreement is a binding contract of the department in full force and effect for that fiscal year.
