C. If a purchasing agency realizes savings through implementation of its electronic commerce initiative funded by the state electronic commerce fund, the purchasing agency shall repay the fund the amount of monies originally disbursed to the agency plus ten per cent of the agency savings. The purchasing agency may retain the remainder of the savings generated through its electronic commerce initiative.
D. On notice from the department, the state treasurer shall invest and divest monies in the fund as provided by section 35-313, and monies earned from investment shall be credited to the fund.
