The Oklahoma Development Finance Authority is authorized to create an insurance fund consisting solely of funds deposited pursuant to Section 81 of this act. Said insurance fund shall be held in the custody of one or more banks or trust companies having a principal place of business in this state. The insurance fund shall be held as security for the holders of bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of this act. It shall be governed by a trust agreement entered into by the Authority with the trustees. The trust agreement may contain such provisions and limitations as to the investment and disbursement of monies in the insurance fund; the payment of expenses of the insurance fund; the appointment, resignation, and discharge of trustees; the delegation of enforcement and collection powers under the insurance agreements to the trustee; the duties of the trustees, amendments of the trust agreement, and such other lawful provisions and limitations as may be deemed appropriate by the Authority. The trust agreement may pledge premiums and other monies which may be deposited in the insurance fund. Such pledge shall be valid and binding from the time when the pledge is made. The premiums and other monies so pledged and thereafter received by the insurance fund or by the trustees in its behalf shall immediately be subject to the lien of such pledge and shall be valid and binding as against all parties having claims of any kind against the insurance fund, irrespective of whether such parties have notice thereof. The Authority may also use the funds deposited pursuant to Section 81 of this act to purchase insurance which shall be pledged for the security of the holders of any bonds issued under this act or to enter into agreements with credit facilities in order to enhance the security of any holders of bonds. In any case in which insurance is pledged as security, whether obtained through the insurance funds authorized to be created pursuant to the provisions of this section or purchased with monies deposited pursuant to Section 81 of this act, any description of such insurance shall expressly indicate the limitation of the liability of the Authority and that neither the credit nor taxing power of this state or any political subdivision thereof shall be available to satisfy any obligations with respect thereto.
