Public Authorities Law Section 381
Further additional powers of the authority
1.
The authority is hereby authorized, as additional corporate purposes thereof:(a)
to issue bonds and notes and to incur obligations secured by the moneys as provided in the service contracts authorized pursuant to section fourteen of the chapter of the laws of nineteen hundred ninety-one which enacted this section; and(b)
to make available the proceeds from the sale of such bonds and notes, net of all costs to the authority in connection therewith, to provide moneys to the authority to achieve the same corporate purposes as set forth in § 365 (Notes or bonds of the authority)section three hundred sixty-five of this chapter. The authority is further authorized to issue such obligations in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed eighty million dollars, exclusive of the principal amount of bonds, notes or other obligations issued and applied (1) to fund any related debt service fund, or other reserve funds as may be needed, (2) to provide capitalized interest, and(3)
to provide fees and other charges and expenses, including underwriters’ discount and the purchase of any credit or liquidity enhancement facilities, related to the issuance of bonds, notes or other obligations and the maintenance of such reserves, all as determined by the authority and excluding bonds, notes or other obligations issued to refund or otherwise repay bonds, notes or other obligations theretofore issued pursuant to this section. In computing the total principal amount of bonds, notes or other obligations that may at any time be issued for any purpose under this section, the amount of the outstanding bonds, notes or other obligations that constitutes interest under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to the effective date of this section, shall be excluded. Provided, however, that upon any refunding or repayment, except in connection with the termination of the existence of the authority or if otherwise authorized by the legislature, the total aggregate principal amount of outstanding bonds, notes or other obligations may be greater than the amount authorized by this section only if the present value of the aggregate debt service of the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or other obligations to be issued shall not exceed the present value of the aggregate debt service of the bonds, notes or other obligations so to be refunded or repaid. For purposes of this section, the present values of the aggregate debt service of the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or other obligations and of the aggregate debt service of the bonds, notes or other obligations so refunded or repaid, shall be calculated by utilizing the effective interest rate of the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or other obligations, which shall be that rate arrived at by doubling the semi-annual interest rate (compounded semi-annually) necessary to discount the debt service payments on the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or other obligations from the payment dates thereof to the date of issue of the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or other obligations and to the price bid including estimated accrued interest or proceeds received by the authority including estimated accrued interest from the sale thereof.2.
Such obligations shall be special limited obligations of the authority, secured by and payable solely out of payments received pursuant to service contract or contracts authorized by section fourteen of the chapter of the laws of nineteen hundred ninety-one which enacted this section, funded by amounts appropriated by the legislature and any other funds appropriated by the legislature to the authority therefor, without recourse against any other assets, revenues or funds of or other payments due to the authority.3.
Such obligations shall contain on the face thereof a statement to the effect that they shall not be deemed to be an obligation of the state and that the state shall not be liable thereon.4.
Such obligations shall be scheduled to mature over a term not to exceed thirty years.5.
All the provisions of this title relating to bonds and notes, which are not inconsistent with the provisions of this section, shall apply to obligations authorized by this section, including, but not limited to, the power to issue renewal notes or refunding bonds thereof.
