1. The chair, with the commissioner of taxation and finance, is authorized to enter into a financing agreement with the dormitory authority, to be known as the “self-insured bond financing agreement”. Such agreement shall set forth the process for calculating the annual debt service of bonds issued by the dormitory authority and any other associated costs in connection with the self-insurer offset fund, as set forth in section sixteen hundred eighty-q of the public authorities law. For purposes of this section, “associated costs” may include a coverage factor, reserve fund requirements, all costs of any nature incurred by the dormitory authority in connection with the self-insured bond financing agreement or pursuant thereto, the costs of any independent audits undertaken under this section, and any other costs for the implementation of this subdivision and the issuance of bonds by the dormitory authority, including interest rate exchange payments, rebate payments, liquidity fees, credit provider fees, fiduciary fees, remarketing, dealer, auction agent and related fees and other similar bond-related expenses, unless otherwise funded. By September first of each year, the dormitory authority shall provide to the chair the calculation of the amount expected to be paid by the dormitory authority in debt service and associated costs for purposes of calculating the assessments for the debt service portion of the assessment provided for under this chapter. All monies received on account of such assessments shall be applied in accordance with this chapter and with the self-insured bond financing agreement until the financial obligations of the dormitory authority in respect to its contract with its bondholders are met and all associated costs payable to or by the dormitory authority have been paid, notwithstanding any other provision of law respecting secured transactions. This provision may be included by the dormitory authority in any contract of the dormitory authority with its bondholders. The self-insured bond financing agreement may restrict disbursements, investments, or rebates, and may prescribe a system of accounts applicable to the self-insurer offset fund as consistent with the provisions of this chapter governing such fund, including custody of funds and accounts with a trustee that may be prescribed by the dormitory authority as part of its contract with the bondholders. For purposes of this subdivision, the term “bonds” shall include notes issued in anticipation of the issuance of bonds, or notes issued pursuant to a commercial paper program.
