Costs incurred by the state in connection with state general obligation bonds bearing variable interest rates that are different from costs determined by the Treasurer to be customary costs for state general obligation bonds bearing interest at fixed rates (including, but not limited to, fees and charges of underwriters, remarketing or auction agents, tender and paying agents, rating agencies, financial advisors, counsel, and staff costs directly associated with the foregoing), shall be paid from annual appropriations from the General Fund if the bonds are issued under a bond act approved by the voters prior to January 1, 2002. If the bonds are issued under a bond act approved by the voters after January 1, 2002, these costs are authorized to be paid, and may be paid, from the General Obligation Bond Expense Revolving Fund created by Section 16724.5 or from proceeds from the sale of any bonds issued pursuant to this chapter.
