The Bonds shall not constitute an indebtedness of the District, St. Johns County, Florida the State of Florida, or any political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory provision or limitation.
The Bonds are expected to be sold pursuant to a negotiated sale by Prager, McCarthy & Sealy (the "Underwriter") to Allstate Insurance Company. The interest rate on the Bonds shall not exceed 9.00 percent per annum. The maximum interest rate for the month of May 1996 is 7.41 percent. The Bonds shall not be sold to the general public.
An interest rate waiver for an amount Not to Exceed $11,000,000 at an interest rate Not to Exceed 9.00 percent per annum was previously granted at the Board's meeting on September 14, 1995, which expired March 12, 1996. A second interest rate waiver for an amount Not to Exceed $11,445,000 at an interest rate Not to Exceed 8.50 percent per annum was previously granted at the Board's meeting on March 12, 1996, which will expire September 9, 1996. Subsequent to obtainment of the second waiver, Atlantic Gulf Communities Corporation indicated its intention to sell Julington Creek Plantation development. This decision led to a restructuring of the Bonds and a further delay in the issuance thereof. Accordingly, a new interest rate waiver is required. (Att. #7)
