Management, development and disposition of intellectual property. (1) The State Board of Education may manage, develop or dispose of property acquired under ORS 326.520 in any manner deemed by the board to be in the public interest. The board may contract with any person regarding such management, development or disposition. (2) The board may determine the terms and conditions of any transaction authorized by ORS 326.520 to 326.540 and need not require competitive bids in connection therewith. No formal publicity or advertising is required regarding property for the development of which the board wishes to contract, but the board shall make reasonable efforts to disseminate pertinent information in appropriate research and industrial circles. (3) If the board deems it inadvisable to proceed with the development or management of property acquired under ORS 326.520, it may reassign such property to the person from whom it was acquired upon being compensated for any expenditure made on account of such property.
