payment trust; payments; delinquencies.
(1) A lien payment trust may be established with a
trust company as defined in ORS 706.008 that is authorized to transact trust
business in this state, for the conveyance of timeshare property to the trustee
under ORS 94.876 if the trust instrument provides for at least the following:
(a) Title to the
timeshare property must be transferred to the trustee before the purchasers
funds, negotiable instruments, purchase money agreements or credit card
authorizations or proceeds are disbursed by the escrow agent.
(b) The trustee
shall not convey or transfer all or any portion of the timeshare property
except for an accommodation in which no owner has any further right of
occupancy or as permitted at termination of the trust.
(c) The trustee
shall not encumber the timeshare property without the consent of the Real
Estate Commissioner.
(d) The
association, if any, and all timeshare owners are made third party
beneficiaries of the trust.
(e) Notice of the
trustees intention to resign must be given to the commissioner at least 90
days before the resignation takes effect.
(f) The trust
instrument may not be amended to adversely affect the interests or rights of a
timeshare owner without the written approval of the association or, if no
association, a majority of the timeshare owners.
(g) Require the
deposit into trust of a lien payment deposit, as required by subsection (3) of
this section, before the closing of the first timeshare sale.
(h) Require the
deposit into trust before closing the first timeshare sale, and the intention
to maintain for the duration of the trust, an installment payment reserve
consisting of funds in an amount sufficient at all times:
(A) To pay the
total of three successive monthly installments of debt service on each blanket
encumbrance or, if installments of debt services are not payable monthly or in
equal installments, such funds as the commissioner determines reasonably
necessary to assure that the trustee will have sufficient cash to make any
payment under the blanket encumbrances when due; and
(B) To create a
sinking fund to extinguish the debt at its maturity if the blanket encumbrance
against the trust property is an interest only loan, contains a balloon payment
provision or is otherwise not fully amortized under the terms for repayment.
(i) Authorize the
trustee to sell, transfer, hypothecate, encumber, or otherwise dispose of the
purchase money agreement or any other asset composing the lien payment deposit
or any portion thereof if, in the trustees judgment, such action is necessary
to enable the trustee to make all payments required under the blanket
encumbrances to prevent foreclosure of the blanket encumbrance.
(j) Require the
developer to replenish the funds and assets in the trust whenever the lien
payment deposit or the funds in the installment payment reserve fail to meet
the requirements set forth in this subsection.
(k) Provide that
the trustee periodically shall disburse funds in the trust as follows: First,
to pay real property taxes, governmental assessments, and lease rent, if any;
second, to pay current payments due on the blanket encumbrances, in their order
of priority; third, to any sinking fund established for the payment of blanket
encumbrances, including any prepayment penalties and release prices; fourth, to
pay any service charge and cost payable to the trustee and its collection
agent, if any, under the trust instrument; and fifth, to the developer or as
directed by the developer.
(L) Contain any
other provisions required by the commissioner under rules adopted under ORS
