escrow of cash or cash equivalents
in an amount sufficient to pay all remaining principal and interest until
maturity of any or all series of bonds outstanding.
(c) When any such escrow has been established, moneys so deposited will
be invested and reinvested only at the direction of the Treasurer, and all
interest income or profit derived therefrom in excess of the amount needed
for expenses of administration of the escrow, the cost of insurance unless
otherwise provided for, and the amount necessary to pay all remaining principal
and interest until maturity of bonds which are the subject of that escrow
shall be transmitted when earned to the Treasurer, pursuant to directions
from the Treasurer, to be credited to the Public Building Fund.
(d) When all outstanding bonds of the Authority are so defeased, all interest
income or profit derived therefrom in excess of the amount required for
purposes of subparagraph (c) shall be transmitted, when earned, to the
