RESOLUTION NO. 06-18
C. In the Inducement Resolution, the Issuer preliminarily authorized the
issuance of its Health Care Facilities Revenue Bonds (Fleet Landing Project), in an aggregate
principal amount of not to exceed $20,000,000 for the purpose of financing all or any part of the
cost of the acquisition, construction and installation of the Project. Based upon updated
estimates of the anticipated sources and uses of funds, the Borrower has requested the Issuer to
authorize the issuance of the Series 2006 Bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
$20,000,000.
D. To reduce the transaction and financing costs relating to the issuance of
separate bond issues in separate cities, the Borrower has requested the Issuer to finance the
Project through the issuance of the Bonds, with the proceeds of the Bonds to be loaned by the
Issuer to the Borrower to finance the costs of the portions of the Project located in the City and in
the City of Jacksonville, Florida. The Borrower has represented to the Issuer that financing the
Project pursuant to a single financing plan will result in substantial cost savings for the Borrower
in connection with the Project.
E. The Borrower has received from the Credit Provider a commitment to
issue the Credit Facility with respect to the Series 2006 Bonds. The Series 2006 Bonds will not
be issued unless and until the Credit Provider has issued the Credit Facility and the Series 2006
Bonds have been rated "A" or better by Standard & Poor's Rating Services (without regard to
gradations or modifiers).
F. The Bonds will be secured by (i) an obligation of the Borrower in the
Loan Agreement to make payments sufficient to pay, among other things, the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds when and as the same become due, and (ii) the
Credit Facility.
G. In compliance with Section 147(f) of the Code and the Treasury
Regulations thereunder, notice of a public hearing pertaining to the issuance of the Series 2006
Bonds, the plan of financing and the location and nature of the Project has been duly given in the
same manner as required by the Issuer for the adoption of resolutions generally, including
publication of notice not less than fourteen (14) days prior to such public hearing in a newspaper
of general circulation in the City. Such public hearing was held by the Issuer on December 11,
2006, and interested individuals were provided a reasonable opportunity to express their views,
both orally and in writing, on the proposed issuance of the Series 2006 Bonds, the plan of
financing described herein and the location and nature of the Project.
H. The Series 2006 Bonds will not be issued unless the Issuer has received a
satisfactory opinion of bond counsel to the effect (among other things) that the interest on the
Series 2006 Bonds will be excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under
existing laws of the United States of America at the time of the delivery of the Series 2006
Bonds.
I. The Project and the financing of all or a part of the cost of the Project by
the Issuer will be in furtherance of the purposes of the Act in that it will encourage the location
of the Project in Duval County (the "County") and the State, it will enhance and expand the
health care industries, promote and foster the economic growth and development of the Issuer
RESOLUTION NO. 06-18

and the State, advance the public purposes providing modern and efficient continuing care
facilities in the City and the County, improve living conditions and health care and will serve
other predominantly public purposes as set forth in the Act. The Project is appropriate to the
needs and circumstances of and shall make a significant contribution to the economic growth and
development of the City, the County and the State, shall preserve and provide gainful
employment and shall serve a public purpose by advancing the economic prosperity and the
general welfare of the City, the County, the State and its people as stated in Section 159.26,
Florida Statutes, as amended.
J. Based on representations made by the Borrower, the City and other local
agencies have been and will continue to be able to cope satisfactorily with the impact of the
Facilities and have been and will be able to provide, or cause to be provided when needed, the
public facilities, including utilities and public services, that have been or will be necessary for
the construction, operation, repair and maintenance of the Facilities and on account of any
increases in population or other circumstances resulting therefrom.
K. Adequate Ir~ovision has been made in the documents attached hereto for a
loan by the Issuer to the Borrower to finance a portion of the cost of the Project, for the
operation, repair and maintenance of the Facilities at the expense of the Borrower and for the
repayment by the Borrower of the loan in installments sufficient to pay the principal of,
premium, if any, and the interest on the Series 2006 Bonds and all costs and expenses relating
thereto in the amounts and at the times required, and for the payment by the Borrower of all costs
incurred by the Issuer in connection with the financing of a portion of the cost of the Project and
the administration of the Facilities.
L. Subject to the condition that the Borrower provide the Credit Facility to
secure the payment of the Bonds, and based upon the financial information heretofore furnished
to the Issuer by the Borrower, the Borrower is financially responsible and fully capable and
willing to serve the purposes of the Act and fulfill its obligations under the proposed financing
agreements for the Project and under any other agreements to be made in connection with the
issuance of the Bonds and the use of the Bond proceeds for financing all or a part of the cost of
the Project, including the obligation to pay loan payments or other payments in an amount
sufficient in the aggregate to pay all of the interest, principal and redemption premiums, if any,
on the Bonds, in the amounts and at the times required, the obligation to operate, repair and
maintain the Project at the Borrower's own expense, and such other responsibilities as may be
imposed under such agreements, due consideration having been given to the financial condition
of the Borrower, its ratio of current assets to current liabilities, net worth, earnings trends and
coverage of all fixed charges, the nature of the industry or business and of the activity involved,
the inherent stability thereof and other factors determinative of the capabilities of the Borrower
financially and otherwise, to fulfill its obligations consistently with the purposes of the Act, and
to the condition that the Bonds be fully secured by the Credit Facility.
M. Based on representations made by the Borrower, the costs of the Project
were "costs" of a "project" within the meaning of the Act. All of the proceeds of the Series 2006
Bonds, and to pay a portion of the costs of issuance of the Series 2006 Bonds, will be applied to
the financing of a portion of the costs of the Project as provided herein.
RESOLUTION NO. 06-18

N. Based on information supplied by the Borrower, the best interests of the
inhabitants of the City will be served, and the public purposes of the Act will be advanced, by the
financing of the cost of the Project in the manner described in the Loan Agreement and the
Indenture.
O. The Borrower's obligation to repay the loan made pursuant to the Loan
Agreement will be evidenced by the Series 2006 Note.
P. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2006 Bonds,
and all sinking fund and other payments required to be made by the Issuer under the provisions
of the Indenture and the Loan Agreement, shall be payable solely from (i) the income, revenues
and proceeds derived by the Issuer under the Loan Agreement, and (ii) other moneys pledged
therefor under the Indenture, including proceeds of the Series 2006 Bonds and other moneys held
in trust under the Indenture. The Series 2006 Bonds shall not be deemed to constitute a debt,
liability or obligation of the Issuer, of Duval County or of the State or any political subdivision
thereof, or a pledge of the faith and credit or the taxing power of the Issuer, of Duval County or
of the State or any political subdivision thereof, but shall be payable solely from the revenues
and proceeds pledged thereto under the Indenture. The issuance of the Series 2006 Bonds shall
not directly or indirectly, or contingently, obligate the Issuer, Duval County or the State or any
political subdivision thereof, to levy or pledge any form of taxation whatever therefor or to make
any appropriation for the payment thereof. No holder or owner of any of the Series 2006 Bonds
shall ever have any right to compel the exercise of the ad valorem taxing power or the levy or
collection of any ad valorem taxes, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any of the principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on the Series 2006 Bonds.
Q. The payments to be made by the Borrower under the Loan Agreement will
be sufficient to pay all principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2006 Bonds, as
the same shall become due, and to make all other payments required by the Loan Agreement and
the Indenture.
R. A negotiated sale of the Bonds is required and necessary and is in the best
interest of the Issuer for the followi-ng reasons: the Bonds will be special and limited obligations
of the Issuer payable out of moneys derived by the Issuer from the Borrower or as otherwise
provided herein and will be secured by funds and collateral of the Borrower; the Borrower will
be required to pay all costs of the Issuer in connection with the financing; the cost of issuance of
the Bonds, which must be borne directly or indirectly by the Borrower would most likely be
greater if the Bonds are sold at public sale by competitive bids than if the Bonds are sold at
negotiated sale, and there is no basis, considering prevailing market conditions, for any
expectation that the terms and conditions of a sale of the Bonds at public sale by competitive
bids would be any more favorable than at negotiated sale; because prevailing market conditions
are uncertain, it is desirable to sell the Bonds at a predetermined price; and revenue bonds having
the characteristics of the Bonds are typically sold at negotiated sale under prevailing market
conditions.
S. The Purchaser has orally agreed with the Borrower to use its best efforts to
submit to the Issuer and the Borrower an offer to purchase the Series 2006 Bonds in substantially
the form of the Bond Purchase Agreement upon terms acceptable to the Issuer and the Borrower
RESOLUTION NO. 06-I8

as hereinafter authorized, and it is necessary and appropriate to authorize a negotiated sale of the
Series 2006 Bonds to the Purchaser and to authorize the execution and delivery of the Bond
Purchase Agreement upon the terms hereinafter provided.
T. It is appropriate that the .Issuer approve the Official Statement, and that the
Issuer authorize the distribution of the Official Statement prior to the issuance and delivery of the
Series 2006 Bonds. For this purpose, it is appropriate that the Official Statement be approved
and the distribution thereof in the manner hereinafter provided be authorized.
U. All conditions precedent to the financing of the Project have been
satisfied, or will be satisfied prior to the delivery of the Series 2006 Bonds, and the issuance of
the Series 2006 Bonds will otherwise comply with all of the provisions of the Act.
SECTION 4. FINANCING OF PROJECT AUTHORIZED. The financing
by the Issuer of the Project in the manner provided herein is hereby authorized.
SECTION 5. l~'~EMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT. All actions taken by

Inducement Resolution and the execution of the Memorandum of Agreement referred to therein
(the "Memorandum of Agreement") are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.
SECTION 6. AUTHORIZATION OF THE SERIES 2006 BONDS. For the
purpose of providing funds to (i) pay or reimburse the costs of the Project, and (ii) pay certain
costs of issuance of the Bonds, and subject and pursuant to the provisions hereof, the issuance of
the Bonds in an aggregate principal amount of not to exceed $20,000,000 is hereby authorized;
provided, however, that no series of Bonds shall be issued unless and until: (a) the Credit
Facility shall have been delivered to the Trustee; and (b) the City Attorney has rendered his legal
opinion relating to the issuance of the of Bonds.

bear interest at such rates, shall be payable or shall mature on such dates and in such amounts,

and Bond Purchase Agreement. Such Bonds shall be designated "Variable Rate Demand Health
Care Facilities Revenue Bonds (Fleet Landing Project), Series 2006."

to constitute a general debt, liability or obligation of the Issuer, or the State, or of any political
subdivision thereof, or a pledge of the faith and credit of the Issuer, or the State or of any
political subdivision thereof, but shall be payable solely from the Trust Estate (as defined in the
Trust Indenture) provided therefor under the Trust Indenture, and the Issuer is not obligated to
pay the Bonds or the interest thereon except from such Trust Estate pledged therefor and neither
the faith and credit of the Issuer nor the faith and credit or taxing power of the Issuer, the State or
any political subdivision thereof is pledged to the payment of the principal of, premium, if any,
or interest on the Bonds.
