SummaryFinancing Arrangement

North Carolina Aquarium, Pine Knoll Shores

With approval from the Council of State, the State Property Office willlease the North Carolina Aquarium, Pine Knoll Shores to the North CarolinaAquarium Society, Inc. for a term of 23 years. During this time, the Society willexpand the Aquarium from 29,000 square feet to over 90,000 square feet andadd new educational exhibits. The contract between the State and the Society isa "Ground Lease" that provides for the reversion of the Aquarium to the Stateupon satisfactory retirement of debt by the Aquarium Society.

The North Carolina Capital Facilities Finance Agency will issue revenuebonds pursuant to Article 2 of Chapter 159D of the North Carolina GeneralStatutes in the amount of $27 million for capitalization of interest and to financeAquarium improvements. The proceeds from the sale of these bonds will beloaned to the Society for the sole purpose of expanding the Aquarium.

The Society and State Property Office will also enter into a Sublease onthe date of issuance of the bonds that authorizes the State to lease the expandedfacility back from the Society at the end of a projected 30-month constructionperiod. The Sublease will be coterminous with the term of the bond financing.The Sublease will require the State to pay to the Society amounts sufficient forthe repayment of the debt service on the bonds. The funds used to make theselease payments will be derived from revenues held in the Aquarium AdmissionFund. The State has the option to make payments from other funds or to pre-paythe bonds with no penalty.

The bonds will be secured by a Letter of Credit issued by Bank ofAmerica. In order to secure its reimbursement obligation, the Society will berequired to grant to the Bank, a Deed of Trust on its leasehold interest in theGro~nd Lease. Such a Deed of Trust will be recorded prior to the Sublease.Thus, if the Society defaults on its repayment obligation to the Bank, theSublease could be wiped out and in foreclosure a purchaser could be entitled touse the Aquarium for the balance of the Ground Lease. Several safeguards havebeen added to prevent this possibility including holding one year's payment inthe Admission Fund as a reserve account.

The Department of Environment and Natural Resources has been anactive partner in the development of this plan. The State Property Office, Officeof State Construction, Department of Insurance, Office of the Attorney Generaland the State Treasurer's Office have provided advice and assistance throughout

the project.
