CHAPTER 14

HEALTH FACILITIES

39-1450.  Security for bonds and notes. The principal of and interest on any bonds or notes issued by the authority may be secured by a pledge of, or security interest in, the revenues, rentals and receipts out of which the same may be made payable or from other moneys available therefor and not otherwise pledged or used as security and may be secured by a trust indenture or mortgage or deed of trust (including assignment of leases or other contract rights of the authority thereunder) covering all or any part of the facilities from which the revenues, rentals or receipts so pledged or used as security may be derived, including any enlargements of and additions to any such facilities thereafter made. The resolution under which the bonds are authorized to be issued and any such trust indenture, mortgage or deed of trust may contain any agreements and provisions which shall be a part of the contract with the holders of the bonds or notes to be authorized as to:

(a)  Pledging or providing a security interest in all or any part of the revenues of a facility or any revenue-producing contract or contracts made by the authority with any individual, partnership, corporation or association or other body, public or private, to secure the payment of the bonds or notes or of any particular issue of bonds, subject to such agreements with noteholders or bondholders as may then exist;

(b)  Respecting the maintenance of the properties covered thereby;

(c)  The fixing and collection of rents, fees, and other charges to be charged, and the amounts to be raised in each year thereby, and the use and disposition of the revenues;

(d)  The setting aside, creation and maintenance of special and reserve funds and sinking funds and the use and disposition of the revenues;

(e)  Limitations on the right of the authority or its agent to restrict and regulate the use of facilities;

(f)  Limitations on the purpose to which the proceeds of sale of any issue of bonds or notes then or thereafter to be issued may be applied and pledging or providing a security interest in such proceeds to secure the payment of the bonds or notes or any issue of the bonds or notes;

(g)  Limitations on the issuance of additional bonds, the terms upon which additional bonds may be issued and secured and the refunding of outstanding bonds;

(h)  The procedure, if any, by which the terms of any contract with bondholders or noteholders may be amended or abrogated, the amount of bonds or notes the holders of which must consent thereto, and the manner in which such consent may be given;

(i)  Limitations on the amount of moneys derived from a facility to be expended for operating, administrative or other expenses of the authority;

(j)  Defining the acts or omissions to act which shall constitute a default in the duties of the authority to holders of its obligations and providing the rights and remedies of such holders in the event of a default;

(k)  The mortgaging of a facility and the site thereof for the purpose of securing the bondholders or noteholders; and

(l)  Such other additional covenants, agreements, and provisions as are judged advisable or necessary by the authority for the security of the holders of such bonds or notes.

Any pledge made by the authority shall be valid and binding from the time when the pledge is made; the revenues, moneys, or property so pledged and thereafter received by the authority shall immediately be subject to the lien of such pledge without any physical delivery thereof or further act, and the lien of such pledge shall be valid and binding as against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract or otherwise against the authority, irrespective of whether such parties have notice thereof. Neither the resolution nor any other instrument by which a pledge is created need be recorded. Each pledge, agreement, lease, indenture, mortgage and deed of trust made for the benefit or security of any of the bonds of the authority shall continue effective until the principal of and interest on the bonds for the benefit of which the same were made shall have been fully paid or provision for such payment duly made. In the event of default in such payment or in any agreements of the authority made as a part of the contract under which the bonds were issued, whether contained in the resolutions authorizing the bonds or in any trust indenture, mortgage or deed of trust executed as security therefor, said payment or agreement may be enforced by suit, mandamus, the appointment of a receiver in equity or by foreclosure of any mortgage and deed of trust, or any one (1) or more of said remedies.

In addition to the foregoing, bonds of the authority may be secured by a pooling of leases whereby the authority may assign its rights, as lessor, and pledge rents under two (2) or more leases of the facilities with two (2) or more participating health institutions, as lessees respectively, upon such terms as may be provided for in the resolutions of the authority or as may be provided for in a trust indenture authorized by the authority.

(m)  Notwithstanding any other provision of chapter 9, title 28, Idaho Code, to the contrary, this section expressly governs the creation, perfection, priority and enforcement of a security interest created by the Idaho health facilities authority.
