II.

III.

The treasurer, when authorized by the governor and council, may enter into agreements with banks or other financial institutions, within or without the state, in the form of lines or letters of credit or other banking arrangements in connection with any indebtedness incurred under this section or RSA 6-A:4. The agreement may include covenants and provisions for protecting and enforcing the rights, security and remedies of the lenders as, in the discretion of the treasurer, may be reasonable and proper and not in violation of law. Notes issued under this section or RSA 6-A:4 shall bear interest at such rate or rates as the treasurer may deem proper, including rates variable from time to time as determined by any index, banker's loan rate or other method specified in any such agreement.
