(2) Disbursements from the sinking account shall be made upon submission of duly verified claims that are approved by the Director of Veterans' Affairs. The Secretary of State may audit the claims in the manner that other claims against the state are audited. The moneys in the sinking account, other than those derived from tax levies and from sales of refunding bonds, are continuously appropriated for payment of expenses of administration of ORS 407.115, 407.125, 407.165, 407.205, 407.275, 407.415, 407.495 and 407.515 to 407.565.

(3) Amounts in the sinking account shall be held and set aside separately from the amounts in the Oregon War Veterans' Fund and any other funds or assets of this state, but such account may be accounted for as part of the Oregon War Veterans' Fund.

(4) The debt service reserve account within the sinking account shall be maintained as a subaccount within the sinking account dedicated to provide funds for the payment of bonds issued under authority of Article XI-A of the Oregon Constitution.

(5) Nothing in this section shall be construed so as to impair any covenant or agreement with the holders of such bonds heretofore entered into by the director on behalf of this state with respect to the maintenance of the sinking account as heretofore constituted and any such covenant and agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(6) The director may create subaccounts in the sinking account necessary for appropriate administration of the director's duties including, but not limited to, providing for the issuance, security, payment or administration of bonds or to preserve the federally tax exempt status of bonds issued on a federally tax exempt basis. The director may segregate such subaccounts from other subaccounts used for other purposes including, but not limited to, the issuance, security, payment or administration of bonds or other obligations, whether previously or subsequently issued.
