The agency shall have power and is hereby authorized from time to time to issue negotiable bonds and notes in conformity with applicable provisions of the uniform commercial code in such principal amount as, in the opinion of the agency, shall be necessary, after taking into account other moneys which may be available for the purpose, to provide sufficient funds to the facilities development corporation, or any successor agency, for the financing or refinancing of or for the design, construction, acquisition, reconstruction, rehabilitation or improvement of mental health services facilities pursuant to paragraph a of this subdivision, the payment of interest on mental health services improvement bonds and mental health services improvement notes issued for such purposes, the establishment of reserves to secure such bonds and notes, the cost or premium of bond insurance or the costs of any financial mechanisms which may be used to reduce the debt service that would be payable by the agency on its mental health services facilities improvement bonds and notes and all other expenditures of the agency incident to and necessary or convenient to providing the facilities development corporation, or any successor agency, with funds for the financing or refinancing of or for any such design, construction, acquisition, reconstruction, rehabilitation or improvement and for the refunding of mental hygiene improvement bonds issued pursuant to section 47-b of the private housing finance law; provided, however, that the agency shall not issue mental health services facilities improvement bonds and mental health services facilities improvement notes in an aggregate principal amount exceeding twelve billion nine hundred twenty-one million seven hundred fifty-six thousand dollars $12,921,756,000, excluding mental health services facilities improvement bonds and mental health services facilities improvement notes issued to refund outstanding mental health services facilities improvement bonds and mental health services facilities improvement notes; provided, however, that upon any such refunding or repayment of mental health services facilities improvement bonds and/or mental health services facilities improvement notes the total aggregate principal amount of outstanding mental health services facilities improvement bonds and mental health facilities improvement notes may be greater than twelve billion nine hundred twenty-one million seven hundred fifty-six thousand dollars $12,921,756,000, only if, except as hereinafter provided with respect to mental health services facilities bonds and mental health services facilities notes issued to refund mental hygiene improvement bonds authorized to be issued pursuant to the provisions of section 47-b of the private housing finance law, the present value of the aggregate debt service of the refunding or repayment bonds to be issued shall not exceed the present value of the aggregate debt service of the bonds to be refunded or repaid. For purposes hereof, 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. Such bonds, other than bonds issued to refund outstanding bonds, shall be scheduled to mature over a term not to exceed the average useful life, as certified by the facilities development corporation, of the projects for which the bonds are issued, and in any case shall not exceed thirty years and the maximum maturity of notes or any renewals thereof shall not exceed five years from the date of the original issue of such notes. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, the agency shall have the power and is hereby authorized to issue mental health services facilities improvement bonds and/or mental health services facilities improvement notes to refund outstanding mental hygiene improvement bonds authorized to be issued pursuant to the provisions of section 47-b of the private housing finance law and the amount of bonds issued or outstanding for such purposes shall not be included for purposes of determining the amount of bonds issued pursuant to this section.

However, no resolution or resolutions authorizing mental health services facilities improvement bonds or mental health services facilities improvement notes shall (A) pledge all or any part of the fees and charges made or received by the agency pursuant to paragraphs (a) through (d) of subdivision three of section six of this act in connection with the making of mortgage loans or commitments therefor, or all or any part of the moneys received in payment of such mortgage loans and interest thereon, (B) pledge all or any part of the mortgages of the agency or obligations securing the same, (C) provide as to the use and disposition of the gross income from mortgages owned by the agency or as to the payment of the principal of mortgages owned by the agency, (D) pledge all or any part of the rentals paid to the agency under leases, subleases or other agreements for health facilities entered into by the agency in accordance with this article, or (E) pledge or assign all or any part of any other assets, moneys or accounts pledged or assigned to the agency as security for the payment of rentals for such health facilities.4.Mental health services facilities fund.

Such moneys and any other moneys paid into the mental health services facilities fund may, in the discretion of the agency, but subject to agreements with the holders of mental health services facilities improvement bonds and mental health services facilities improvement notes, be used by the agency (a) for the repayment of advances, if any, from the state to the agency in connection with mental health services facilities, and any real property or interest in real property required therefor, in accordance with the provisions of repayment agreements related thereto which have been entered into with the director of the budget, (b) to pay all costs, expenses and charges of financing and refinancing mental health services facilities including fees and expenses of trustees and paying agents and credit enhancement fees, (c) to pay the administrative and other expenses of the agency allocable to the services performed by the agency in the financing or refinancing of or the design, construction, acquisition, reconstruction, rehabilitation or improvement of mental health services facilities and matters relating thereto, (d) for the payment of the principal of and interest on mental health services facilities improvement bonds or mental health services facilities improvement notes issued by the agency when the same shall become due whether at maturity or by call for redemption and for the payment of any redemption premium required to be paid where such bonds or notes are redeemed prior to their stated maturities, and to purchase mental health services facilities improvement bonds or mental health services facilities improvement notes issued by the agency, or (e) for such other corporate purposes of the agency relating to the carrying out of its functions, powers and duties with respect to the financing or refinancing of the design, construction, acquisition, reconstruction, rehabilitation or improvement of mental health services facilities as the agency in its discretion shall determine and provide.5.The agency may create and establish one or more special funds to be known as mental health services facilities improvement capital reserve funds and may pay into such reserve funds (a) any moneys appropriated and made available by the state for the purposes of such funds, (b) any proceeds of the sale of mental health services facilities improvement notes or bonds, to the extent provided in the resolution of the agency authorizing the issuance thereof, and (c) any other moneys which may be made available to the agency for the purposes of such funds from any other source or sources. The amount in each such capital reserve fund shall be determined by resolution of the agency provided, however, that such capital reserve fund shall not exceed the maximum amount of payments becoming due in any succeeding calendar year. The moneys held in or credited to the capital reserve funds established under this subdivision except as hereinafter provided, shall be used solely to the extent any payments as they become due pursuant to one or more agreements referred to in subdivision two of this section are not made or provided for by the facilities development corporation, provided, however, that the moneys in such funds shall, subject to agreement with the bondholders, not be withdrawn therefrom at any time in such amount as would reduce the amount thereof to less than the amount determined by resolution of the agency except for the purpose of making such payments becoming due under the agreements with the facilities development corporation and for which other moneys are not available.
Any income or interest earned by, or increment to, any such mental health services improvement facilities capital reserve fund due to the investment thereof may be transferred to the mental health services facilities fund to the extent it does not reduce the amount of such mental health services capital reserve fund below the reserve requirement determined by resolution of the agency.
