In the case of written instruments, the same shall be subscribed by the settlor or settlors by authentic act or by act under private signature executed in the presence of two witnesses and duly acknowledged by the settlor or settlors or by the affidavit of one of the attesting witnesses and before the same shall become effective the beneficial interest therein shall be accepted by the governor and two-thirds of the elected members of each house of the legislature if the state of Louisiana or any state agency be the beneficiary, or by the governing body of any other beneficiary named therein, which power and authority of acceptance hereby is conferred upon the governor and the legislature and the governing bodies of the parishes, municipalities and other political and governmental units in the state. Thereupon the said instrument or will, together with the written acceptance of the beneficial interest endorsed thereon, shall be recorded in the official records in the office of the clerk of court of each parish wherein is situated any real estate, or any interest therein, belonging to said trust, as well as the parish wherein is located the trust property or wherein are conducted its principal operations. In the case of any trust of which the state of Louisiana or a state agency thereof shall be the beneficiary, a certified copy of such instrument or will and the instrument of acceptance shall be filed with the secretary of state. Upon the acceptance of the beneficial interest by the beneficiary as hereinabove authorized and provided, the same shall be and constitute a binding contract between the state of Louisiana and the settlor or settlors, or the executor of the estate of the settlor, for the acceptance of the beneficial interest in the trust property by the designated beneficiary and the application of the proceeds of the trust property and its operation for the purposes, and in accordance with the stipulations of the trust instrument or will.
