19-11-1303. Imminent need to enter into a partial equity ownership agreement.
(a) In lieu of a review under 19-11-1302, a partial equity ownership agreement that necessitates immediate formation shall be reviewed by the Office of State Procurement and the Legislative Council under this section.
(b) (1) The board of trustees of a state retirement system may enter into a partial equity ownership agreement or substantially alter the terms of an existing partial equity ownership agreement if the board of trustees passes a resolution that:
(A) Determines an imminent need to immediately form or enter into the partial equity ownership agreement;
(B) Deems it financially appropriate to immediately form or enter into a partial equity ownership agreement; and
(C) Concludes that to forego the opportunity to promptly implement the board of trustees' investment directives under the prudent investor rule as set out in 24-2-610 -- 24-2-619 would be inconsistent with the board of trustees' fiduciary duty of care to the retirants.

(2) The state retirement system's interest and ownership in the partial equity ownership agreement;
(3) The reason for the immediate formation or entry into a partial equity ownership agreement;
(4) Justification that the duration of the partial equity ownership agreement is necessary to serve the best interests of the retirants under the prudent investor rule as set out in 24-2-610 -- 24-2-619;
(5) The anticipated date of implementation;
(6) The anticipated termination date of the partial equity ownership agreement; and
(7) Other information regarding the terms of the partial equity ownership agreement that the office or the Legislative Council may reasonably require for an adequate review.
(d) As may be reasonably required by the Legislative Council, a member of the board of trustees, the director of the respective state retirement system, or the director's appointee shall appear at the next scheduled meeting of the Legislative Council after the receipt of the information under subsection (c) of this section to present the information and explain the details of the partial equity ownership agreement.
