The 2017 Bonds Are Limited Obligations of the Authority, Payable Solely from the Trust Estate NEW ISSUE—BOOK ENTRY ONLY RATINGS: Moody’s: A1 S&P: A+ Fitch: AA- (See “RATINGS” herein) In the opinion of Bond Counsel, under existing law and assuming continuing compliance by the Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority (the “Authority”) and UPMC (the “Corporation”) with certain covenants related to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), interest on the 2017A Bonds (including any original issue discount properly allocable to an owner thereof) is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax; however, interest with respect to the 2017A Bonds may be taken into account in determining “adjusted current earnings” for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax on certain corporations. Bond Counsel’s opinion assumes compliance by the Authority and the Corporation with all requirements of the Code that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the 2017A Bonds in order that the interest thereon be, and continue to be, excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Interest on the 2017B Bonds is not excluded from gross income for federal tax purposes. Furthermore, in the opinion of Bond Counsel, the 2017 Bonds are exempt from personal property taxes in Pennsylvania and the interest on the 2017 Bonds is exempt from Pennsylvania corporate net income tax and personal income tax. See “TAX EXEMPTION AND OTHER TAX MATTERS”. $536,745,000 PENNSYLVANIA ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FINANCING AUTHORITY UPMC REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2017 consisting of $436,745,000 Series 2017A $100,000,000 Series 2017B (Federally Taxable) DATED: Date of Delivery MATURITY: November 15, as shown herein The UPMC Revenue Bonds, Series 2017 (the “2017 Bonds”), being issued by the Pennsylvania Economic Development Financing Authority (the “Authority”), will be issued as fully registered bonds and initially registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, New York, which will act as securities depository therefor.

  • Pennsylvania Health Professionals Call for an Investigation Into the PA Department of Health's Response to Fracking Complaints
    Pennsylvania Health Professionals Call for an Investigation into the PA Department of Health's Response to Fracking Complaints Dear Elected Officials, As Pennsylvania nurses, doctors and other health professionals we are very concerned about the recent allegations that the Pennsylvania Department of Health (DoH) is obstructing attempts to investigate and remedy potential impacts from shale gas drilling in the Commonwealth. The Department of Health created a unique list of “buzzwords such as fracking, Marcellus Shale, and drilling, to guide any complaint from the public. Department of Health staff were specifically instructed not to respond to people who contacted them regarding health concerns related to the state’s unconventional natural gas extraction (or fracking). Instead, Department of Health employees were to refer these complaints to the Department’s Bureau of Epidemiology—different from any other health claim. This practice could have limited the Department’s professional staff from accurately monitoring and responding to health problems related to our state’s unconventional gas industry. We are calling for a full investigation of the Department of Health’s response to fracking complaints, immediately open up past and future health complaints to the public, and ensure all future complaints are fully addressed.
