AN ACT to amend the New York state medical care facilities finance agen-
cy act, in relation to the ability to issue certain bonds and notes
The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-bly, do enact as follows:
1 Section 1. Paragraph (b) of subdivision 1 of section 7 of section 1 of
2 chapter 392 of the laws of 1973, constituting the New York state medical
3 facilities finance agency act, as amended by chapter 516 of the laws of
4 2011, is amended to read as follows:
5 (b) The agency shall not issue hospital and nursing home project bonds
6 and hospital and nursing home project notes in an aggregate principal
7 amount exceeding [fifteen] sixteen billion [eight] six hundred million
8 dollars, excluding hospital and nursing home project bonds and hospital
9 and nursing home project notes issued to refund outstanding hospital and
10 nursing home projects bonds and hospital and nursing home project notes;
11 provided, however, that upon any such refunding or repayment the total
12 aggregate principal amount of outstanding bonds, notes or other obli-
13 gations may be greater than [fifteen] sixteen billion [eight] six
14 hundred million dollars only if the present value of the aggregate debt
15 service of the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or other obligations
16 to be issued shall not exceed the present value of the aggregate debt
17 service of the bonds, notes or other obligations so to be refunded or
18 repaid. For purposes hereof, the present values of the aggregate debt
19 service of the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or other obligations
20 and of the aggregate debt service of the bonds, notes or other obli-
21 gations so refunded or repaid, shall be calculated by utilizing the
22 effective interest rate of the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or
23 other obligations, which shall be that rate arrived at by doubling the
24 semi-annual interest rate (compounded semi-annually) necessary to
25 discount the debt service payments on the refunding or repayment bonds,
26 notes or other obligations from the payment dates thereof to the date of
27 issue of the refunding or repayment bonds, notes or other obligations
