The loan obligation of the private academy and the bonds or notes issued to finance such loan shall be secured by all school construction grants committed by the state to the private academy for the school building project. In the event of any default by the private academy under its loan agreement, the qualifying municipalities shall have the right to set off any tuition payments to the private academy to the extent of all loan payments due by the private academy under its loan agreement during each twelve-month period following such default and make such tuition payments directly to the trustee for the bonds or notes. Whenever it is established that a qualifying municipality or private academy has defaulted in the payment of the principal or redemption premium or interest on its bonds or notes or on any payment obligation due under any loan agreement authorized by sections 10-289d to 10-289g, inclusive, or any other event of default under any such loan agreement or guaranty agreement or the trust indenture for the bonds or notes occurs, the payment of state aid and assistance to such qualifying municipality or private academy pursuant to any statute in existence at the time the default is established shall be withheld by the state. If the trustee, on behalf of a holder or owner of any such bond or note or of such qualifying municipality or private academy, files with the State Comptroller a verified statement describing such default, the Comptroller may investigate the circumstances of the alleged default, prepare and file in his office a certificate setting forth his finding with respect to the default and serve a copy of such finding, by registered or certified mail, upon the treasurer or chief fiscal officer of each such qualifying municipality and the private academy and the indenture trustee. Upon the filing of such a verified statement in the office of the Comptroller, the Comptroller shall deduct and withhold from all succeeding payments of state aid or assistance otherwise due each such qualifying municipality or private academy such amounts as are necessary to pay the principal and redemption premium of and interest on such bonds and notes of such a qualifying municipality until such time as the indenture trustee files a verified statement with the Comptroller that all defaults have been cured. Payments of state aid or assistance so deducted and withheld shall be forwarded promptly by the Comptroller and the Treasurer to the paying agent or agents for the bonds and notes for the sole purpose of payment of principal and redemption premium of and interest on such bonds or notes. The Comptroller shall promptly notify the treasurer or the chief fiscal officer of each such qualifying municipality and the private academy of any payment or payments made to any paying agent or paying agents pursuant to this section. The state of Connecticut hereby covenants with the purchasers, holders and owners from time to time of bonds and notes issued by a qualifying municipality for school purposes that it will not repeal the provisions of this section or amend or modify the same so as to limit or impair the rights and remedies granted by this section, provided nothing in this section shall be deemed or construed as requiring the state to continue the payment of state aid or assistance to any qualifying municipality or private academy or as limiting or prohibiting the state from repealing or amending any law relating to state aid or assistance, the manner and time of payment or apportionment thereof or the amount thereof.
