Any monies accruing to the credit of said fund shall be divided equally for deposit into the two accounts provided for herein. No funds deposited into one account shall be transferred into the other account. All monies in each account are hereby appropriated and may be budgeted and expended by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education for the purpose of allocation and transfer to the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University as specified herein. The monies deposited into the Higher Education Facilities Revolving Fund shall be in addition to and not a part of the appropriations made by the Legislature pursuant to Section 3 of Article XIII-A of the Oklahoma Constitution.
