No authority obligations shall be incurred with respect to any training facility and no funds of the authority shall be applied to payment of training facility management fees pursuant to Section 41-10-550 unless the following conditions are met:

(1) Subject to subdivisions (3), (4), and (5) of this subsection, in the case of any training facility financed in whole or in part through the issuance of bonds of the authority, title to the financed property shall be acquired in the name of, or transferred promptly after acquisition to, the authority and the title shall remain in the authority.

(2) Subject to subdivisions (3), (4), and (5) of this subsection, in the case of any training facility financed in whole or in part through the issuance of authority-guaranteed obligations, title to the financed property shall be acquired in the name of, or transferred promptly after acquisition to, the development agency issuing such authority-guaranteed obligations and the title shall remain in the development agency.

(3) In the case of any training facility constituting an industrial or research facility and financed in whole or in part through the issuance of bonds of the authority or authority-guaranteed obligations, the financed property may be leased to any person under an agreement containing such provisions as the authority may require, including without limitation, provisions for the payment of nominal rental by the lessee.

(4) In the case of any training facility constituting an industrial or research facility and financed in whole or in part through the issuance of bonds of the authority or authority-guaranteed obligations, the financed property may be acquired and held in the name of any person, provided that the authority may require such person to enter into an agreement containing, among other things, an option by the authority to purchase or otherwise acquire such training facility if the operation of the training facility by such person ceases.

(5) In the case of the issuance of bonds of the authority to provide funds for payment of project costs referable to a training facility or training facility management fees or in the case of direct funding of training facility management fees pursuant to the provisions of Section 41-10-549 without the issuance of bonds of the authority, the authority may enter into an agreement with any person to provide for operation and management of such training facility by such person and to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which training facility management fees are to be paid or reimbursed by the authority from the proceeds of the bonds. Such agreement shall contain such other provisions as the authority may require. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the authority shall have the power to lease or convey title to any training facility to the Alabama Public School and College Authority or to the State Board of Education, acting by and through the Alabama Industrial Development Training Institute, and such agencies shall have the power to acquire title to or a leasehold interest in any such training facility.
