Where the state or any state agency is the beneficiary, the acceptance is terminated by law duly enacted or by Concurrent Resolution of the Senate and House of Representatives. Where another governmental unit be the beneficiary, the acceptance is terminated by duly adopted ordinance or resolution of the governing body of the beneficiary as may be applicable.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection A of this Section, the acceptance of the beneficial interest in any public trust heretofore or hereafter created shall not be terminated while there exists outstanding any indebtedness or other contractual obligations chargeable against the trust estate. The termination of the acceptance of the beneficial interest by the beneficiary of a public trust shall not prejudice nor affect any valid indebtedness or obligation of the trust; however, upon termination of the acceptance, the trustee or trustees shall have no powers or authority under the provisions of this Chapter, but shall be governed exclusively by the provisions of the Louisiana Trust Code, exclusive of Chapter 2-A of Title 9 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes, and by the laws of this state pertaining to charitable trusts.
