FURTHER, THE BONDS HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES. THE BONDS MAY NOT BE EXEMPT IN EVERY JURISDICTION IN THE UNITED STATES. THE SECURITIES LAWS (THE “BLUE SKY LAWS”) OF SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY REQUIRE A FILING AND A FEE TO SECURE THE BONDS’ EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION.

This Introduction contains only a brief summary of certain terms of the Bonds being offered and a brief description of the Offering Memorandum. All statements contained in this Introduction are qualified in their entirety by reference to the entire Offering Memorandum. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Appendices A, C and D to this Offering Memorandum.

Purpose of the Bonds and the Plan of Finance

The proceeds of the Series 2016 Bonds will be used (i) for eligible corporate purposes of the Hospital and its affiliates, which may include, without limitation, any or all of the following: (a) making a loan to Hudson Valley Hospital Center to refinance its outstanding 2007 FHA-insured mortgage loan, (b) making a loan to New York-Presbyterian/Queens to refinance its outstanding 2007 FHA-insured mortgage loan, (c) making a loan to Lawrence Hospital Center to refinance its outstanding Westchester County IDA debt, (d) refinancing of outstanding debt of the Hospital and other outstanding debt of certain Hospital affiliates, and (e) financing of one or more projects of the Hospital and certain Hospital affiliates, and (ii) to pay costs of issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds.

The Hospital

The Hospital, a New York not-for-profit corporation, created as a result of the January 1998 merger of The Society of The New York Hospital (“New York Hospital”) and The Presbyterian Hospital in the City of New York (“Presbyterian Hospital”), operates at six campuses in Manhattan and Westchester County, New York. The Hospital serves as the academic and quaternary care hub of a network of health care providers (the “Health Care System”), which, as of June 1, 2016, included 10 acute care , 3 long-term care facilities, 2 ambulatory sites, and 2 specialty institutions, located in New York and . Over the years the Hospital has developed its relationships with the other members of the Health Care System as part of its strategic goal of providing high quality, integrated care throughout the tri-state New York metropolitan area (the “Metropolitan Area”). One of the country’s largest academic medical centers, the Hospital ranked #7 in the 2015-16 U.S. News & World Report annual ranking of the best hospitals in the United States, and was the top-ranked hospital in the Metropolitan Area. The Hospital has developed highly specific, patient-centered models of care to treat its diverse patient populations.

The Hospital is the primary clinical teaching facility for two of the country’s leading medical colleges: The Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College of Cornell University (“Weill Cornell Medical School”) and the Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons (“Columbia University Medical School” and, together with Weill Cornell Medical School, the “Medical Schools”). All members of the Attending Medical Staff of the Hospital hold faculty appointments at one of the Medical Schools.

New York Presbyterian Foundation, Inc. (“NYPFI”) is a an affiliate that is linked to the Hospital through the Hospital’s Board of Trustees. The Hospital also has several affiliated entities that support the Hospital through fundraising and real estate holdings. These affiliated entities (“Supporting Corporations”) include: (i) New York-Presbyterian Fund, Inc. (“Fund, Inc.”), which solicits, receives, invests and administers philanthropic funds for the Hospital and other charitable organizations approved by the board of directors of Fund, Inc. and (ii) three real estate holding companies: Royal Charter Properties, Inc., Royal Charter Properties – East, Inc., and Royal Charter Properties – Westchester, Inc. (collectively, the “RCP Corporations”). Another affiliated entity, the New York-Presbyterian Healthcare System, Inc. (“NYPHSI”), serves as the corporate member of a number of the hospitals and other entities that are referred to as “Corporate Members” (as further defined below) of the Health Care System. NYP Community Programs, Inc. (“Community Programs”), a subsidiary of the Hospital, serves as the corporate member of two of the Hospital’s indirect hospital subsidiaries, and NYP Community Services, Inc. (“Community Services” and together with Community Programs, the “NYP Active Parent Corporations”), also a subsidiary of the Hospital, serves as the corporate member of a third indirect hospital subsidiary. These indirect hospital subsidiaries are referred to as the “Regional Hospitals.” Plans are underway for Community Programs to become the corporate member NYP/Lawrence Hospital, replacing Community Services. Subject to regulatory and other approvals, this is expected to occur by the end of 2016. The Hospital owns and operates one of the oldest hospitals in the nation. It has a history of over 200 years of providing medical care in the Metropolitan Area, with five of the Hospital’s six campuses having roots dating back more than 120 years.

Weill Cornell Campus

Inspired by the commencement address delivered in 1769 to the first medical doctors to graduate from King’s College (now Columbia University) by Dr. Samuel Bard, George Washington’s personal physician, city leaders pledged funds for the establishment of a public hospital. This led to the creation of New York Hospital by Royal Charter granted by King George III on June 13, 1771. The first hospital facility was opened in 1791 in lower Manhattan. After relocating several times, New York Hospital began operations at its current location in the Upper East Side of Manhattan (the “Weill Cornell Campus”) in 1932.

The Weill Cornell Campus now occupies the city blocks bounded by East 68th Street to East 71st Street and from York Avenue to the East River, together with various buildings in the area. Portions of the buildings that comprise the Weil Cornell Campus are owned and/or occupied by Weill Cornell Medical School. The Hospital has 862 certified inpatient beds at its facilities on the Weill Cornell Campus. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Weill Cornell Medical School.

Westchester Division

In 1821, New York Hospital opened a hospital for the mentally ill in the Morningside Heights section of Manhattan on land now occupied by Columbia University. This facility moved to White Plains, New York in the 1890s, and is now the Hospital’s Westchester Division. The Westchester Division, which has 270 certified beds, provides inpatient and outpatient psychiatric and behavioral health

2

services. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Weill Cornell Medical School.

Lower Manhattan Hospital

The Hospital’s newest campus, NewYork-Presbyterian Lower Manhattan Hospital (“Lower Manhattan Hospital”), traces its history to 1853, when Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell, America’s first licensed female physician, opened a free dispensary to provide outpatient care for poor women and children. This dispensary became the New York Infirmary for Indigent Women and Children, which opened in 1857. After several relocations and name changes, Lower Manhattan Hospital is now located at 170 William Street, Manhattan, and is the only acute care facility in Manhattan below 14th Street. It has 180 certified beds. Lower Manhattan Hospital became part of the Hospital in July 2013 when New York Downtown Hospital, then a separate member of the Health Care System, was merged into the Hospital. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Weill Cornell Medical School.

Columbia Campus

Presbyterian Hospital was founded in 1868 by James Lenox, a New York philanthropist, and began operations in 1872 at its initial site on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Presbyterian Hospital moved to its present location in the Washington Heights section of Manhattan (the “Columbia Campus”) in 1928.

The Columbia Campus now occupies the city blocks bounded by West 165th Street to West 168th Street and from Broadway to Riverside Drive, together with various other buildings in the area. Portions of the buildings that comprise the Columbia Campus are owned and/or occupied by Columbia University Medical School. The Hospital has 738 certified beds at its facilities on this campus. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Columbia University Medical School.

Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital In the late 1880s, a group of women led by Sara and Julie McNutt, sisters and physicians, established Babies Hospital in a brownstone on 55th Street and Lexington Avenue in Manhattan. That building was replaced in 1902 by an eight-story, 80-bed modern hospital. In 1929, Babies Hospital moved uptown to become part of Presbyterian Hospital, and with the opening of a new facility in November 2003 was renamed The Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital of NewYork-Presbyterian (“MS- CHONY”). MS-CHONY is a pediatric acute care and ancillary services facility with 269 certified beds, and is located on a site contiguous with the Columbia Campus. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Columbia University Medical School.

Allen Hospital The Allen Hospital, which has 196 certified beds and is located at Broadway and the Harlem River in the Inwood section of Manhattan, opened in 1988 under the sponsorship of Presbyterian Hospital and offers acute care to residents of its service area in a community-based setting. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Columbia University Medical School. See map under caption “Location of Campuses of the Hospital and the Health Care Entities” in APPENDIX A hereto. The Bonds

The Bonds are being issued pursuant to an Indenture of Trust, dated as of June 1, 2016 (the “Bond Indenture”), by and between the Hospital and TD Bank, N.A., as bond trustee (the “Bond

3

Trustee”). Pursuant to the Bond Indenture, on each Payment Date, until the principal of and interest on the Bonds shall have been paid or provision for such payment shall have been made as provided in the Bond Indenture, the Hospital will pay the Bond Trustee a sum equal to the amount payable on such Payment Date as principal of or interest on the Bonds. See “THE BONDS” herein.

The Series 2016 Bonds and any Additional Bonds that may be issued under the Bond Indenture are general obligations of the Hospital. The Series 2016 Bonds are not secured by a pledge of or lien on any revenue of the Obligated Group nor has any mortgage on any property of the Obligated Group been pledged to secure the Series 2016 Bonds. (See “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS” herein).

Master Indenture

In February 2015, the Hospital issued its $750,000,000 Taxable Bonds, Series 2015 (the “Series 2015 Bonds”). In connection with the issuance of the Series 2015 Bonds, the Hospital entered into a Master Trust Indenture, dated as of January 1, 2015 (the “Master Trust Indenture”), between the Hospital and TD Bank, N.A., as master trustee (the “Master Trustee”), and formed an Obligated Group under and as defined in the Master Trust Indenture. The Hospital was, and continues to be, the sole Member of the Obligated Group under the Master Trust Indenture. To evidence and secure the payment obligations of the Hospital with respect to the Series 2015 Bonds, the Hospital issued its Obligation No. 1, dated the date of issuance of the Series 2015 Bonds, under and pursuant to the Master Trust Indenture and the Supplemental Master Indenture for Obligation No. 1, dated as of January 1, 2015, between the Hospital and the Master Trustee.

To evidence and secure the obligation of the Hospital with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds, the Hospital will issue its Obligation No. 2, to be dated the date of the issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds, under and pursuant to the Master Trust Indenture and a Supplemental Master Indenture for Obligation No. 2, to be dated as of June 1, 2016 (“Supplemental Indenture No. 2”), between the Hospital and the Master Trustee. Obligation No. 2 is being issued by the Hospital and will constitute an “Obligation” within the meaning of the Master Indenture. Obligation No. 2 will be an Obligation of the Obligated Group payable on a parity basis under the Master Indenture with all other Obligations that may be issued thereunder, including Obligation No. 1 issued in connection with the Series 2015 Bonds described above. Obligation No. 2 will contain payment provisions corresponding to those of the Series 2016 Bonds and will be issued pursuant to the Supplemental Master Indenture for Obligation No. 2, dated as of June 1, 2016 (the “Supplemental Indenture”) by and between the Hospital and the Master Trustee. Obligations issued under the Master Indenture are not secured by a pledge of any property of the Hospital or a lien on any revenues of the Hospital. Obligation No. 2 and the Series 2016 Bonds are unsecured obligations.

Currently, the Hospital is the sole Member of the Obligated Group under the Master Indenture. However, additional entities may become Obligated Members under the Master Indenture if certain financial and other tests are satisfied. The Master Indenture creates a joint and several obligation of each Member of the Obligated Group for the timely payment of all sums due under all Obligations issued under the Master Indenture (including Obligation No. 2), and for the performance and observance of all Master Indenture covenants and agreements by all Members of the Obligated Group. Management of the Hospital is considering the possibility of adding one or more of the Hospital’s indirect subsidiaries and/or other affiliates to the Obligated Group or designating such entities as Designated Affiliates under the Master Trust Indenture, and it is not possible to predict what impact adding another entity to the Obligated Group would have on the Series 2016 Bonds. See APPENDIX A – “THE OBLIGATED GROUP AND THE MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Possible Additions to the Obligated Group under the Master Trust Indenture” attached hereto for a discussion of Management’s decision-making process regarding the addition of members to the Obligated Group or designating Designated Affiliates and APPENDIX E – “FORMS OF THE MASTER INDENTURE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE –

4

Addition of Obligated Members” attached hereto for a description of the provisions permitting an entity to join or withdraw from the Obligated Group under the Master Indenture. The Hospital has agreed in the Supplemental Indenture that it will not withdraw from the Obligated Group. The Hospital is not restricted by the Bond Indenture or otherwise from incurring additional indebtedness and may grant liens on its property subject to the limitations contained in the Bond Indenture and the Master Indenture. See “SOURCES OF PAYMENTS FOR THE BONDS” herein, APPENDIX D – “FORM OF BOND INDENTURE – Authorization of Bonds” and “– Compliance with Bond Indenture” and APPENDIX E – “FORMS OF THE MASTER INDENTURE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE” attached hereto.

Redemption

The Bonds are subject to optional redemption in whole or in part by the Hospital prior to maturity, on any Business Day, in such order of maturity as directed by the Hospital, at the Make-Whole Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, as further described herein. See “THE BONDS – Redemption” herein.

Book-Entry Only System

The following information concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Hospital and the Underwriter believe to be reliable, but none of the Hospital or the Underwriter takes any responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

When delivered, the Bonds will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”). DTC will act as the securities depository for the Bonds. Purchases of the Bonds may be made in book-entry form only, through brokers and dealers who are, or who act through, DTC Participants. Beneficial Owners of the Bonds will not receive physical delivery of certificated securities (except under certain circumstances described in the Bond Indenture). Payment of the principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of and interest on the Bonds are payable by the Bond Trustee to DTC, which will in turn remit such payments to the DTC Participants, which will in turn remit such payments to the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds. In addition, so long as Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Bonds, the right of any Beneficial Owner to receive payment for any Bond will be based only upon and subject to the procedures and limitations of the DTC book-entry system. See “BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM” herein.

SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS

Set forth below is a narrative description of certain contractual provisions relating to the source of payment of the Bonds and certain related covenants. These provisions have been summarized and this description does not purport to be complete. Reference should be made to the Bond Indenture, the Master Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture.

Definitions for defined terms used under this heading are contained in APPENDIX D – “FORM OF BOND INDENTURE” and APPENDIX E – “FORMS OF THE MASTER INDENTURE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE” attached hereto. The summary set forth below does not purport to be complete. See also APPENDIX D – “FORM OF BOND INDENTURE” and APPENDIX E – “FORMS OF THE MASTER INDENTURE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE” attached hereto for a more complete statement of the rights, duties and obligations of the parties thereto.

Bond Indenture

The Bond Indenture provides that, on or before each Payment Date, the Hospital will pay the Bond Trustee a sum equal to the amount payable on such Payment Date as principal of and interest on the Bonds. In addition, the Bond Indenture provides that each such payment made will at all times be sufficient to pay the total amount of interest and principal (whether at maturity or upon redemption or acceleration) becoming due and payable on the Bonds on such Payment Date. If on any Payment Date, the amounts held by the Bond Trustee in the accounts within the Bond Fund (as described below) are insufficient to make any required payments of principal of (whether at maturity or upon acceleration) and interest on the Bonds as such payments become due, the Hospital is required to pay such deficiency to the Bond Trustee. In the event that the Hospital does not make up such deficiency the Bond Trustee is directed to request payment under Obligation No. 2. See APPENDIX D – “FORM OF BOND INDENTURE – Bond Trustee Direction Regarding Obligation No. 2” attached hereto. Additional Bonds may be issued pursuant to the Bond Indenture from time to time, that are consolidated with the Bonds or which are issued as a separate series of bonds. Additional Bonds consolidated with the Bonds pursuant to the terms of the Bond Indenture shall have the same interest rate,

6

redemption provisions, maturity date and other terms (other than issue price) as the Bonds offered hereby, may have the same CUSIP number as the Bonds and shall be treated as a single series of Bonds for all purposes of the Bond Indenture.

Master Indenture, Supplemental Indenture and Obligation No. 2

The Hospital will execute Obligation No. 2 to evidence its payment obligations with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds and its related obligations under the Bond Indenture. Obligation No. 2 will be payable to the Bond Trustee as security for the Series 2016 Bonds. Payments on Obligation No. 2 are scheduled to be made at the times and in the amounts required to pay debt service on the Series 2016 Bonds and will be credited against the loan payment requirements of the Hospital under the Bond Indenture. Obligation No. 2 is being issued by the Hospital pursuant to the Master Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture and will constitute an “Obligation” within the meaning of the Master Indenture. Obligation No. 2 will be an Obligation of the Obligated Group payable on a parity basis with all other Obligations that may be issued thereunder, including Obligation No. 1 issued in connection with the Series 2015 Bonds described below.

Currently, the Hospital is the sole Member of the Obligated Group under the Master Indenture. However, the Master Indenture permits other entities, upon compliance with certain conditions, to become Members of the Obligated Group and to issue Obligations thereunder. Each Obligation will be a joint and several general obligation of the Members of the Obligated Group. Pursuant to the provisions of the Master Indenture, each Member of the Obligated Group is jointly and severally obligated (subject to the right of such Member to withdraw from the Obligated Group upon satisfying the applicable provisions of the Master Indenture) to make any and all payments promptly on all Obligations thereafter, and in certain cases, theretofore, issued under the Master Indenture, including Obligation No. 2, according to the terms thereof. Management of the Hospital is considering the possibility of adding one or more of the Hospital’s indirect subsidiaries and/or other affiliates to the Obligated Group or designating such entities as Designated Affiliates under the Master Trust Indenture, and it is not possible to predict what impact adding another entity to the Obligated Group would have on the Series 2016 Bonds. See APPENDIX A – “THE OBLIGATED GROUP AND THE MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Possible Additions to the Obligated Group under the Master Trust Indenture” attached hereto for a discussion of Management’s decision-making process regarding the addition of members to the Obligated Group or designating Designated Affiliates and APPENDIX E – “FORMS OF THE MASTER INDENTURE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE – Addition of Obligated Members” attached hereto.

Limitations on Liens

Pursuant to the Master Indenture, each Member of the Obligated Group agrees that it will not create or suffer to be created or permit the existence of any Lien upon the Property of the Obligated Group, except for Permitted Liens.

Certain Permitted Liens existing as of the date of delivery of the Series 2016 Bonds include (i) the FHA-Insured Mortgages (as defined below) and related liens granted under the mortgage loan documents with respect thereto (the FHA-Insured Mortgages and such other mortgage loan documents, the “FHA-Insured Loan Documents”) securing approximately $920,132,000 of long- term indebtedness (the “FHA-Insured Indebtedness”), and (ii) the Lower Manhattan Mortgage (as defined below) and related liens granted under the mortgage loan documents with respect thereto (the Lower Manhattan Mortgage and such other mortgage loan documents, the “Lower Manhattan

7

Loan Documents”) securing approximately $23,295,000 of long-term indebtedness (the “Lower Manhattan Indebtedness”), as described below under “Outstanding Indebtedness”. The Obligated Group has agreed not to incur additional FHA-Insured Indebtedness other than to refinance existing FHA-Insured Indebtedness. SEE APPENDIX E – “FORMS OF THE MASTER INDENTURE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE – Supplemental Indenture” attached hereto and see also “Outstanding Indebtedness”, “BONDHOLDER RISKS”, APPENDIX A – “THE HOSPITAL”, APPENDIX B – “SELECT INFORMATION REGARDING THE HOSPITAL SUBSIDIARIES”, and APPENDIX C-1 – “CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE HOSPITAL AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014 AND DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013 WITH REPORTS OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS”). Additional Permitted Liens include, but are not limited to, Liens that may be granted to secure additional Obligations and other Indebtedness and Liens not otherwise identified as a Permitted Lien where the Value of all Property that is encumbered by such Liens does not exceed 30% of the Value of all Property of the Obligated Group, calculated at the time of creation of such Lien. The Obligated Group may incur substantial liabilities secured by Permitted Liens. See “BONDHOLDER RISKS”, and APPENDIX E -- “FORMS OF THE MASTER INDENTURE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE – Permitted Liens” and – Additional Long Term Obligations” attached hereto.

Certain Covenants of the Obligated Group

In addition to the provisions described above, the Master Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture contains provisions, covenants and restrictions related to debt service coverage, mergers and other corporate combinations and divestitures, and other matters. The Master Indenture does not restrict the disposition of assets or establish financial tests to become a Member of or to withdraw from the Obligated Group. The Hospital has agreed that it will not withdraw from the Obligated Group. See APPENDIX E – “FORMS OF THE MASTER INDENTURE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE.”

The rights and remedies of the Master Trustee under the Master Indenture and of the Bondholders and the Issuer under the Bond Indenture are subject to and may be limited by the application of general principles of equity and the laws of the State of New York, and the United States with respect to bankruptcy, insolvency, creditors’ rights generally, now existing or hereafter enacted.

Outstanding Indebtedness

The Hospital has FHA-Insured Indebtedness outstanding, as of March 31, 2016, in the amount of $920,132,000, which is secured by mortgages on the Weill Cornell Campus, the Columbia Campus, Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital, Allen Hospital and the Westchester Division (the “FHA-Insured Mortgages”), and a pledge of revenues and accounts of the Hospital. See Appendix A for descriptions of these facilities.

In connection with the FHA-Insured Loan Documents, the Hospital is required to maintain certain debt service funds including mortgage reserve funds. In addition, the Hospital is required to maintain debt service coverage and other financial ratios, and to obtain approval to incur additional debt above specified levels if certain covenant requirements are not met. Under the terms of the FHA-Insured Loan Documents, the Hospital is eligible for enhanced status which provides greater flexibility in its financial operations and ability to incur both short-term and long-term debt. The Hospital’s eligibility for the enhanced status is based on its historically strong financial performance. If that enhanced status is revoked in the future, the Hospital may be required to enter into one or more deposit account control

8

agreements (“DACA”) to perfect the FHA-insured mortgagees’ security interests in the Hospital’s deposit accounts and the ability of the Hospital to incur additional debt may be restricted.

HUD has consented to the Hospital entering into the loans evidenced by the Series 2015 Bonds and the Series 2016 Bonds. HUD, the FHA-Insured mortgagees, DASNY and the Master Trustee have entered into an intercreditor agreement, as amended by a first amendment to intercreditor agreement (as amended, the “Intercreditor Agreement”) which provides for the cross-default of the FHA-Insured Indebtedness and the Lower Manhattan Indebtedness (collectively, the “Senior Debt”) with the Series 2016 Bonds and the Series 2015 Bonds. The Intercreditor Agreement provides that the Trustee may accelerate the Series 2016 Bonds only upon: (i) a payment default on the Series 2016 Bonds or Series 2015 Bonds after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods as provided for in the Master Indenture and the Bond Indenture, (ii) a payment default on the Senior Debt, (iii) an acceleration of any portion of the Senior Debt, and (iv) an insolvency proceeding with respect to the Hospital. The Series 2016 Bonds and the Series 2015 Bonds cannot be accelerated for any other defaults or events of default under the Master Indenture or the Bond Indenture. Other than with respect to an insolvency proceeding, the Trustee and Master Trustee must provide HUD, DASNY, and Prudential with not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of its intent to exercise a right of acceleration. The Intercreditor Agreement also set forth the terms as to the subordinate and junior nature of the Series 2016 Bonds and the Series 2015 Bonds with respect to the Senior Debt. It provides that payment of amounts due on the Series 2016 Bonds and the Series 2015 Bonds will not be made if there is a payment default on the Senior Debt or the Senior Debt has been accelerated. It further provides that all Senior Debt shall first be paid in full in cash before any payment of, or distribution is made in respect or on account of, the Series 2016 Bonds or the Series 2015 Bonds in any insolvency proceeding. Any payments received by the Trustee or Master Trustee in contravention of the Intercreditor Agreement must be paid over to the holders of the Senior Debt. In any insolvency proceeding, the Trustee and the Master Trustee assign to the holders of the Senior Debt their rights with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds and the Series 2015 Bonds in such proceeding, including voting rights. Given the substantial amount of secured indebtedness that the Hospital has and the senior rights of HUD, the FHA-Insured Mortgagees and DASNY, as the secured lenders, the exercise of remedies by the Trustee and the Master Trustee on behalf of the Bondholders may not result in the collection of sufficient funds to pay the Series 2016 Bonds or the Series 2015 Bonds. The payment of any claims related to the Series 2016 Bonds and the Series 2015 Bonds is subordinate to the payment of the FHA-Insured Indebtedness and the Lower Manhattan Indebtedness as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. See “BONDHOLDER’S RISKS”.

In the event of a default under the FHA-Insured Loan Documents, the FHA mortgagees are entitled to exercise certain rights as secured parties, including rights to take control of the Hospital’s accounts and revenues, and, at the direction of HUD, to accelerate the FHA-Insured Indebtedness and foreclose on the lien of the FHA-Insured Mortgages. The proceeds of the exercise of any such rights would be applied to the payment of the FHA-Insured Indebtedness prior to the payment of the 2016 Bonds and the Series 2015 Bonds.

The Lower Manhattan Indebtedness relates to the Secured Hospital Revenue Refunding Bonds, New York Downtown Hospital, Series 2010, which were issued by the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (“DASNY”). This debt, which was outstanding as of March 31, 2016 in the amount of $23,295,000, is secured by a mortgage on the Lower Manhattan Hospital facility (the “Lower Manhattan Mortgage”) and a security interest in the gross receipts and certain fixtures, furnishings and equipment of the Hospital. See Appendix A for descriptions of these facilities. Pursuant to a Subordination Agreement, dated as of June 28, 2013 (the “DASNY Subordination Agreement”), DASNY agreed to subordinate its interest in the Hospital’s gross receipts to the security interests granted under the FHA- Insured Loan Documents.

9

In the event of a default under the Lower Manhattan Loan Documents, subject to the DASNY Subordination Agreement, DASNY is entitled to exercise certain rights as a secured party, including the right to accelerate the Lower Manhattan Indebtedness and foreclose on the lien of the Lower Manhattan Mortgage. The proceeds of the exercise of any such rights would be applied to the payment of the Lower Manhattan Indebtedness prior to the payment of the 2016 Bonds.

In February 2015, the Hospital issued its Series 2015 Bonds. To evidence and secure the payment obligations of the Hospital with respect to the Series 2015 Bonds, the Hospital issued its Obligation No. 1, dated the date of issuance of the Series 2015 Bonds, under and pursuant to the Master Indenture and the Supplemental Master Indenture for Obligation No. 1, dated as of January 1, 2015, between the Hospital and the Master Trustee.

The Hospital also has various capital leases totaling $53,415,000 (as of March 31, 2016) secured by the financed equipment.

In addition the Hospital has a $100 million unsecured line of credit with a commercial bank which expires on June 30, 2016. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, no draws have been made under this line of credit. This is a 364-day line of credit that is generally renewed annually. The Hospital is in the process of renewing it through June 30, 2017.

Certain of the Outstanding Indebtedness described in this section is benefitted by specific liens on Hospital revenues and property that are superior to the rights of other creditors including the Series 2016 Bonds. The ability of the holders of Outstanding Indebtedness to exercise certain rights and to foreclose on their liens in the event of a default by the Hospital could result in the Hospital’s inability to repay the Series 2016 Bonds. See “BONDHOLDER RISKS”, APPENDIX A – “THE HOSPITAL” and APPENDIX C-1 – “FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE HOSPITAL AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014 WITH REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS”).

THE BONDS

Description of the Bonds

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Bonds” for all purposes of the Bond Indenture and this “Description of the Bonds” include any Additional Bonds that are actually issued and consolidated with the Bonds.

The Bonds will be dated, will bear interest at the rates and will mature on the dates (subject to prior redemption) as set forth on the cover page to this Offering Memorandum. Interest on the Bonds will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

The Bonds will be delivered in the form of fully registered Bonds in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. The Bonds will be registered initially in the name of “Cede & Co.,” as nominee of DTC and will be evidenced by one Bond for each maturity in the principal amount of the Bonds of such maturity. Registered ownership of the Bonds, or any portions thereof, may not thereafter be transferred except as set forth in the Bond Indenture. See APPENDIX D – “FORM OF BOND INDENTURE” attached hereto.

The principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of the Bonds will be payable by check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America at the Designated Office of the Bond Trustee.

Interest on the Bonds will accrue beginning on the date of issuance of the Bonds and will be payable on each Interest Payment Date. An “Interest Payment Date” for the Bonds will occur on February 1 and August 1 of each year commencing on February 1, 2017. Payment of the interest on each Interest Payment Date will be made to the Person whose name appears on the bond registration books of the Bond Trustee as the Holder thereof as of the close of business on the Record Date for each Interest Payment Date, such interest to be paid by check mailed by first class mail to such Holder at its address as it appears on such registration books, or, upon the written request of any Holder of at least $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Bonds, submitted to the Bond Trustee at least one Business Day prior to the Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account within the United States designated by such Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as long as Cede & Co. is the Holder of the Bonds in book-entry form, said principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price and interest payments will be made to Cede & Co. by wire transfer in immediately available funds.

All payments by the Hospital in respect of the Bonds will be made after the deduction or withholding of any taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld.

Redemption

Optional Redemption

The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to their stated maturity in whole or in part on any Business Day in such order of maturity as directed by the Hospital, and the Bond Trustee shall select the Bonds of a maturity to be redeemed from the Bonds Outstanding of such maturity not previously called for redemption, pro rata, at the Make-Whole Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption. For purposes of this paragraph, the following definitions shall apply:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” shall mean the United States Treasury security or securities selected by a Designated Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to

12

the remaining term of the Bonds to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Bonds.

“Comparable Treasury Price” shall mean, with respect to any redemption date, the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date or, if the Designated Investment Banker obtains only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

“Designated Investment Banker” shall mean one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Hospital.

“Make-Whole Redemption Price” shall mean the greater of:

(1) 100% of the principal amount of any Bonds being redeemed; or

(2) The sum of the present values of the remaining unpaid scheduled payments of principal and interest on any Bonds being redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360- day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus ______(__) basis points.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” shall mean Goldman, Sachs & Co. or its affiliates which are primary U.S. government securities dealers, and their respective successors; provided that if Goldman, Sachs & Co. or its affiliates shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Hospital shall substitute therefore another Primary Treasury Dealer; provided, further, that the Hospital may, at its option, substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer for Goldman, Sachs & Co. or its affiliates.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” shall mean, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Designated Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Designated Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

“Treasury Rate” shall mean, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.

Purchase in Lieu of Redemption

The Bonds are subject to purchase in lieu of redemption by the Bond Trustee at the direction of the Hospital prior to maturity on the same terms that would apply to the Bonds if the Bonds were then being optionally redeemed.

Selection of Bonds for Redemption

If less than all of the Bonds are called for redemption, the Hospital shall select the maturities of Bonds to be redeemed. If less than all of the Bonds of a maturity are to be redeemed, the Bond Trustee shall select the Bonds of a maturity to be redeemed from the Bonds Outstanding of such maturity not previously called for redemption, pro rata.

13

If the Bonds are registered in book-entry only form and so long as DTC or a successor securities depository is the sole registered owner of the Bonds, if less than all of the Bonds of a maturity are called for prior redemption, the particular Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata pass-through distribution of principal basis in accordance with DTC procedures, provided that, so long as the Bonds are held in book-entry form, the selection for redemption of such Bonds shall be made in accordance with the operational arrangements of DTC then in effect.

It is the Hospital’s intent that redemption allocations made by DTC be made on a pro rata pass- through distribution of principal basis as described above. However, the Hospital can provide no assurance that DTC, DTC’s direct and indirect participants or any other intermediary will allocate the redemption of Bonds on such basis. If the DTC operational arrangements do not allow for the redemption of the Bonds on a pro rata pass-through distribution of principal basis as discussed above, the Bonds will be selected for redemption, in accordance with DTC procedures, by lot.

Notice of Redemption

Notice of redemption will be mailed by the Hospital to the Bond Trustee by first class mail, not less than 45 days, nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, or such fewer days as may be agreed to by the Hospital and the Bond Trustee. Notice of redemption will be mailed by the Bond Trustee by first class mail, not less than 30 days, nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, to the respective Holders of any Bonds designated for redemption at their addresses appearing on the bond registration books of the Bond Trustee. If the Bonds are no longer held by DTC or its successor or substitute, the Bond Trustee shall also give notice of redemption by overnight mail to such securities depositories and/or securities information services as shall be designated in a certificate of the Hospital. Each notice of redemption shall state the date of such notice, the date of issue of the Bonds, the redemption date, the method of calculating the Make-Whole Redemption Price, the interest rate, the place or places of redemption (including the name and appropriate address or addresses of the Bond Trustee), the maturity (including CUSIP number, if any), and, in the case of Bonds to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Each such notice will also state that on said date there will become due and payable on each of said Bonds the Make-Whole Redemption Price thereof or of said specified portion of the principal amount thereof in the case of a Bond to be redeemed in part only, together with interest accrued thereon to the redemption date, and that from and after such redemption date interest thereon shall cease to accrue, and shall require that such Bonds be then surrendered.

Failure by the Bond Trustee to give notice as described above to any one or more of the securities information services or depositories designated by the Hospital, or the insufficiency of any such notice will not affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption. Failure by the Bond Trustee to mail notice of redemption to any one or more of the respective Holders of any Bonds designated for redemption will not affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption with respect to the Holders to whom such notice was mailed.

The Hospital may instruct the Bond Trustee to provide conditional notice of redemption, which may be conditioned upon the receipt of moneys or any other event. If such conditions are not met, the Bond Trustee is to give notice, as soon thereafter as practicable, in the same manner, to the same Persons, as notice of such redemption was given pursuant to the Bond Indenture and as described above. Additionally, any such notice may be rescinded by written notice given to the Bond Trustee by the Hospital no later than five Business Days prior to the date specified for redemption. The Bond Trustee will give notice of such rescission, as soon thereafter as practicable, in the same manner, to the same Persons, as notice of such redemption was given.

14

Partial Redemption of Bonds

Upon surrender of any Bond redeemed in part only, the Bond Trustee shall provide a replacement Bond in a principal amount equal to the portion of such Bond not redeemed, and deliver it to the registered owner thereof. The Bond so surrendered shall be cancelled by the Bond Trustee as provided herein. The Hospital and the Bond Trustee shall be fully released and discharged from all liability to the extent of payment of the redemption price for such partial redemption.

Effect of Redemption

Notice of redemption having been duly given as aforesaid, and moneys for payment of the redemption price being held by the Bond Trustee, the Bonds, or portions thereof, so called for redemption shall, on the redemption date designated in such notice, become due and payable at the redemption price specified in such notice, interest on the Bonds or portions thereof so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, said Bonds shall cease to be entitled to any lien, benefit or security under the Bond Indenture, and the Holders of said Bonds shall have no rights in respect thereof except to receive payment of the redemption price thereof. All Bonds fully redeemed pursuant to the provisions of the Bond Indenture described above shall be cancelled upon surrender thereof and may be destroyed by the Bond Trustee, which shall, upon request of the Hospital, deliver to the Hospital a certificate evidencing such destruction.

Transfer of Bonds

Any Bond may, in accordance with its terms and subject to the limitations provided in the Bond Indenture, be transferred upon the books required to be kept pursuant to the provisions of the Bond Indenture by the Person in whose name it is registered, in person or by its duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of such Bond for cancellation, accompanied by delivery of a written instrument of transfer, duly executed in a form approved by the Bond Trustee.

Whenever any Bond or Bonds shall be surrendered for transfer, the Hospital shall execute and the Bond Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Bond or Bonds of the same series, bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date, for a like aggregate principal amount in Authorized Denominations. The Bond Trustee may require the Bondholder requesting such transfer to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer, and the Bond Trustee may also require the Bondholder requesting such transfer to pay a reasonable sum to cover any expenses incurred by the Hospital in connection with such transfer. The Bond Trustee shall not be required to transfer (i) any Bond during the fifteen (15) days next preceding the selection of Bonds for redemption or (ii) any Bond called for redemption.

Exchange of Bonds

Bonds may be exchanged at the Designated Office of the Bond Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount of Bonds of the same series, bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date of other Authorized Denominations. The Bond Trustee may require the Bondholder requesting such exchange to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange, and the Bond Trustee may also require the Bondholder requesting such exchange to pay a reasonable sum to cover any expenses incurred by the Hospital in connection with such exchange. The Bond Trustee shall not be required to exchange (i) any Bond during the fifteen (15) days next preceding the selection of Bonds for redemption or (ii) any Bond called for redemption.

15

Bond Register

The Bond Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept sufficient books for the registration and transfer of the Bonds, which shall at all times (during regular business hours at the location where such books are kept) be open to inspection by any Bondholder, the Hospital or their respective agents duly authorized in writing; and, upon presentation for such purpose, the Bond Trustee shall, under such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, register or transfer or cause to be registered or transferred, on such books, Bonds as provided in the Bond Indenture.

Acceleration

If any Event of Default occurs under the Bond Indenture, including an Event of Default resulting from a payment default on the part of the Hospital, the principal of the Bonds, and the interest accrued thereon, may be accelerated and become immediately due and payable, at the Make-Whole Redemption Price, with interest payable thereon to the accelerated payment date. For a description of the Events of Default under the Bond Indenture, see APPENDIX D – “FORM OF BOND INDENTURE – Events of Default and Remedies of Bondholders” attached hereto. See “Bondholders’ Risk”.

BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM

The following information concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Hospital and the Underwriter believe to be reliable, but none of the Hospital or the Underwriter takes any responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully-registered securities in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Bond certificate will be issued for each maturity of the Bonds, and will be deposited with DTC.

General

DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues and money market instruments from over 100 countries that DTC’s participants (“Direct Participants”) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). DTC has a Standard & Poor’s rating of

16

“AAA.” The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com.

Purchases of the Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond (“Beneficial Owner”) is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase, Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for such Bonds is discontinued.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of the Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.

Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within a maturity are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such maturity to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the Hospital as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).

Principal, redemption premium, if any, and interest payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co. or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Hospital or the Bond Trustee on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name”, and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Underwriter, the Bond Trustee or the Hospital subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal, redemption premium, if any, and interest to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Hospital or the Bond Trustee, disbursement of such payments to Direct

17

Participants will be the responsibility of DTC and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.

The Hospital and the Bond Trustee may treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive registered owner of the Bonds registered in its name for the purposes of payment of the principal and redemption premium, if any, of, or interest on, the Bonds, giving any notice permitted or required to be given to a registered owners under the Bond Indenture, registering the transfer of the Bonds, or other action to be taken by registered owners and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Hospital and the Bond Trustee shall not have any responsibility or obligation to any Direct or Indirect Participant, any person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in the Bonds under or through DTC or any Direct or Indirect Participant, or any other person which is not shown on the registration books of the Hospital (kept by the Bond Trustee) as being a registered owner, with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or any Direct or Indirect Participant; the payment by DTC or any Direct or Indirect Participant of any amount in respect of the principal, redemption premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds; any notice which is permitted or required to be given to registered owners thereunder or under the conditions to transfers or exchanges adopted by the Hospital; or other action taken by DTC as registered owner. Interest, redemption premium, if any, and principal will be paid by the Bond Trustee to DTC, or its nominee. Disbursement of such payments to the Direct or Indirect Participants is the responsibility of DTC and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners is the responsibility of the Direct or Indirect Participants.

DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Hospital or the Bond Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, the Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

The Hospital may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, the Bond certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Hospital, the Bond Trustee and the Underwriter believe to be reliable, but the Hospital, the Bond Trustee and the Underwriter do not take responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Each person for whom a Participant acquires an interest in the Bonds, as nominee, may desire to make arrangements with such Participant to receive a credit balance in the records of such Participant, and may desire to make arrangements with such Participant to have all notices of redemption or other communications of DTC, which may affect such persons, to be forwarded in writing by such Participant and to have notification made of all interest payments. NONE OF THE HOSPITAL, THE UNDERWRITER AND THE BOND TRUSTEE WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO SUCH PARTICIPANTS OR THE PERSONS FOR WHOM THEY ACT AS NOMINEES WITH RESPECT TO THE BONDS.

So long as Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Bonds, as nominee for DTC, references herein to the Bondholders or registered owners of the Bonds shall mean Cede & Co., as aforesaid, and shall not mean the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds.

When reference is made to any action which is required or permitted to be taken by the Beneficial Owners, such reference only relates to those permitted to act (by statute, regulation or otherwise) on behalf of such Beneficial Owners for such purposes. When notices are given, they will be sent by the Bond Trustee to DTC only.

18

For every transfer and exchange of Bonds, the Beneficial Owner may be charged a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto.

NONE OF THE HOSPITAL, THE UNDERWRITER AND THE BOND TRUSTEE WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO DIRECT PARTICIPANTS, TO INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS, OR TO ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER WITH RESPECT TO (I) THE ACCURACY OF ANY RECORDS MAINTAINED BY DTC, ANY DIRECT PARTICIPANT, OR ANY INDIRECT PARTICIPANT; (II) ANY NOTICE THAT IS PERMITTED OR REQUIRED TO BE GIVEN TO THE OWNERS OF THE BONDS UNDER THE BOND INDENTURE; (III) THE SELECTION BY DTC OR ANY DIRECT PARTICIPANT OR INDIRECT PARTICIPANT OF ANY PERSON TO RECEIVE PAYMENT IN THE EVENT OF A PARTIAL REDEMPTION OF THE BONDS; (IV) THE PAYMENT BY DTC OR ANY DIRECT PARTICIPANT OR INDIRECT PARTICIPANT OF ANY AMOUNT WITH RESPECT TO THE PRINCIPAL OR REDEMPTION PREMIUM, IF ANY, OR INTEREST DUE WITH RESPECT TO THE BONDS; (V) ANY CONSENT GIVEN OR OTHER ACTION TAKEN BY DTC AS THE OWNER OF THE BONDS; OR (VI) ANY OTHER MATTER.

BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS

General Factors Affecting the Series 2016 Bonds and the Hospital’s Revenues and Expenses

AN INVESTMENT IN THE BONDS INVOLVES A DEGREE OF RISK. A PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER OF THE BONDS IS ADVISED TO READ THE ENTIRE OFFERING MEMORANDUM, INCLUDING THE APPENDICES HERETO. REFER TO THE SECTION “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS” AND THIS SECTION FOR A DISCUSSION OF CERTAIN RISK FACTORS WHICH SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN CONNECTION WITH AN INVESTMENT IN THE BONDS. The factors listed below, among others, could adversely affect the Hospital’s operation, revenues and expenses to an extent and in a manner which cannot be determined at this time.

Introduction

Payment of the Bonds depends directly on the ability of the Members of the Obligated Group, currently the Hospital only, to collectively generate revenues sufficient to cover the debt service on the Bonds and all other indebtedness of the Obligated Group. In the last decade, health care providers, especially hospitals, have faced increasing economic pressures from both governmental health care programs and private purchasers of health care such as insurance companies and health maintenance organizations (collectively “third party payers”). The dependence of hospitals on governmental programs requires them to accept limitations on payments and comply with regulations and other restrictions and requirements triggered by participation in such programs. Some governmental and private third party payers have entered into contracts with health care providers that require “capitated” or other fixed payments, which have the effect of shifting significant economic risks to health care providers.

The Hospital has a significant amount of outstanding indebtedness that is secured by mortgages on the Hospital’s assets and which is payable on a priority ahead of the Bonds. Although the Hospital is part of a larger system as described in Appendix A hereto, the Hospital is currently the sole Member of the Obligated Group and no other entity is obligated on the Bonds. Health care, especially at the hospital level, is a highly regulated industry with complicated and frequently changing regulations arising both from payment programs and extensive governmental oversight. Health care providers are increasingly subject to audits, investigations and litigation that may threaten access to governmental reimbursement programs, require substantial fines and payments, generate adverse publicity and create significant legal and other transaction costs. In addition, because the Hospital is a 501(c)(3) organization under the

19

Internal Revenue Code, it is subject to increasing regulation and restrictions that may have adverse effects on its economic performance or threaten its tax-exempt status and the economic benefits derived from such status. In particular, such regulations and restrictions may require the provision of health care services without payment.

Set forth below is a limited discussion of certain of the risks affecting the Hospital and its ability to provide for payment of the Bonds. Investors should recognize that the discussion below does not cover all such risks; that payment provisions and regulations and restrictions change frequently; and that additional material payment limitations and regulations and restrictions may be created, implemented or expanded while the Bonds are outstanding. The following discussion is not meant to be an exhaustive list of the risks associated with the purchase of any Bonds and does not necessarily reflect the relative importance of the various risks. Potential investors are advised to consider the following special factors along with all other information described elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this Offering Memorandum, including the Appendices hereto, in evaluating the Bonds.

Adequacy of Revenues

The Bonds are general unsecured obligations of the Hospital, the payment of which is evidenced by the Bonds and Obligation No. 2. No representation or assurance can be made that revenues will be realized by the Hospital in amounts sufficient to pay maturing principal of, redemption premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds. The ability of the Hospital to make payments on the Bonds under the Bond Indenture depends, among other things, upon the capabilities of management of the Hospital and the ability of the Hospital to maximize revenues under various third party reimbursement programs and to minimize costs and to obtain sufficient revenues from their operations to meet such obligations. Revenues and costs are affected by and subject to conditions which may change in the future to an extent and with effects that cannot be determined at this time. The risk factors discussed below should be considered in evaluating the ability of the Hospital to make payments in amounts sufficient to meet its obligations with respect to the Bonds and Obligation No. 2. This discussion is not, and is not intended to be, exhaustive.

The ability of the Hospital to make required payments under the Bonds and Obligation No. 2 is subject to, among other things, the capabilities of the management of the Hospital and future economic and other conditions, which are unpredictable and which may affect revenues and costs and, in turn, the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds. Future revenues and expenses of the Obligated Group will be affected by events and conditions relating generally to, among other things, demand for the Obligated Group’s services, its ability to provide the services required by patients, physicians’ relationships with the Obligated Group, patient and physician satisfaction with the Hospital and its facilities, management capabilities, the design and success of the Hospital’s strategic plans, demographic, financial and economic developments in the United States, the State and the Hospital’s service area, the Hospital’s ability to control expenses, maintenance by the Hospital of relationships with managed care organizations (“MCOs”) and PPOs (as defined herein), competition, rates, costs, third party reimbursement, legislation and governmental regulation. The ability of the Hospital to operate successfully over the life of the Bonds may also be dependent upon its ability to finance, acquire and support additional capital replacements and improvements, which ability will be affected by legislation, regulations and applicable principles of reimbursement. Federal and state statutes and regulations are the subject of intense legislative debate and are likely to change, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur which cause variations from the Hospital’s expectations, and the variations may be material. THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE REVENUES OF THE HOSPITAL WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO ENABLE THE HOSPITAL TO MAKE SUCH PAYMENTS.

20

None of the provisions, covenants, terms and conditions of the Bond Indenture or the Master Indenture will afford the Bond Trustee any assurance that the principal and interest owing under the Bonds and Obligation No. 2 (which, except for money held under the Bond Indenture and the other collateral securing the Bonds, constitute the sole source of funds for the payment of the Bonds) will be paid as and when due, if the financial condition of the Obligated Group deteriorates to a point where the Members of the Obligated Group are unable to pay their debts as they come due, or otherwise become insolvent.

Outstanding Indebtedness

FHA-Insured Indebtedness

The Hospital has FHA-Insured Indebtedness outstanding, which is secured by the FHA-Insured Mortgages and a pledge of accounts and revenues derived from the facilities subject to the FHA-Insured Mortgages. See “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS – Outstanding Indebtedness,” above for additional details. In the event of a default under the FHA-Insured Loan Documents, the FHA mortgagees are entitled to exercise certain rights as secured parties, including rights to take control of the Hospital’s accounts and revenues, and, at the direction of HUD, to accelerate the FHA-Insured Indebtedness and foreclose on the lien of the FHA-Insured Mortgages. The proceeds of the exercise of any such rights would be applied to the payment of the FHA-Insured Indebtedness prior to the payment of the 2016 Bonds. Furthermore, in the event of a default under the FHA-Insured Loan Documents, and prior to any acceleration of the FHA-Insured Indebtedness, HUD may require that the Hospital enter into a DACA. A DACA may restrict the flow of Hospital revenues that would otherwise be available to pay debt service on the Series 2016 Bonds. In the event that the Hospital fails to make the payments due on the FHA-Insured Indebtedness, it is not likely that the Hospital will have funds available to pay the Series 2016 Bonds. A failure to make payments on the FHA-Insured Indebtedness would result in a default under the Master Indenture and the Bond Indenture. Under the terms of the Bond Indenture, the Bond Trustee could accelerate the payment of the Series 2016 Bonds, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. See “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS – Outstanding Indebtedness” above for a description of the Intercreditor Agreement. Because the Series 2016 Bonds are not secured by any property or revenues of the Hospital, so long as the FHA-Insured Indebtedness remains outstanding in a material amount, the Bond Trustee may not be able to exercise any remedies that are likely to result in the collection of sufficient funds to pay the accelerated Series 2016 Bonds.

Other Secured Indebtedness

The Hospital also has the Lower Manhattan Indebtedness outstanding, which is secured by the Lower Manhattan Mortgage and a pledge of gross receipts of the Hospital. See “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS – Outstanding Indebtedness,” above for additional details. In the event of a default under the Lower Manhattan Loan Documents, DASNY is entitled to exercise certain rights as a secured party, including the right to accelerate the Lower Manhattan Indebtedness and foreclose on the lien of the Lower Manhattan Mortgage. The proceeds of the exercise of any such rights would be applied to the payment of the Lower Manhattan Indebtedness prior to the payment of the 2016 Bonds. Furthermore, the loss of the Lower Manhattan Hospital facility through foreclosure could negatively affect the financial condition of the Hospital and its ability to pay the Series 2016 Bonds.

21

Impact of Market Turmoil

The disruption of the credit and financial markets in 2008 and the recession that followed resulted in volatility in the securities markets, significant losses in investment portfolios, increased business failures and consumer and business bankruptcies.

In response to this disruption of the markets, in 2010 Congress enacted and the President approved the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”). Additional legislation is under active consideration by Congress and regulatory action is being considered by various federal agencies, the Federal Reserve Board and foreign governments which legislation is intended to increase the regulation of financial Hospitals and domestic and global credit and securities markets. The effects of these legislative, regulatory and other governmental actions, including the Dodd- Frank Act, upon the Hospital and any other future Members of the Obligated Group and, in particular upon their access to capital markets and their investment portfolios, cannot be predicted.

The healthcare sector has been adversely affected as a direct consequence of the disruption of the credit and financial markets. The consequences of these developments have generally included, realized and unrealized investment portfolio losses, reduced investment income, limitations on access to the credit markets, and difficulties in remarketing revenue bonds subject to tender. Generally, patient service revenues and inpatient volumes have not increased as historic trends would otherwise indicate. Reduced employment and personal income have resulted in increases in self-pay admissions, increased levels of bad debt and uncompensated care, reduced demand for elective procedures, and reduced availability and affordability of health insurance. The recent recession increased stresses on state budgets, which could potentially result in reductions in Medicaid payment rates or Medicaid eligibility standards, and delays of payment of amounts due under Medicaid and other state or local payment programs.

The economic environment may also adversely affect the operations of the Hospital as a result of, among other factors, increases in the number of uninsured patients or if persons that would otherwise use their facilities and services choose to defer elective medical procedures. Economic conditions are also adversely affecting revenue available to states and increasing expenses under various state programs, including Medicaid.

New York State Department of Health Regulations

The Hospital is subject to regulations issued by the New York State Department of Health (“DOH”). Compliance with such regulations may require substantial expenditures for administrative or other costs. Regulations of DOH could change, requiring the Obligated Group to admit or maintain more indigent patients than is currently required. DOH could decide to revoke or not renew the operating certificate of the Hospital for failure to comply with regulatory requirements. The Hospital’s ability to provide services or maintain beds or to modify certain existing services is also subject to DOH review and approval. Approvals can be highly discretionary, may involve substantial delay, and may require substantial changes in the proposed request. Accordingly, the Hospital’s ability to make changes to their services and respond to changes in the competitive environment may be limited.

Nonprofit Healthcare Environment

The Hospital is a nonprofit corporation, exempt from federal income taxation as an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code. As a nonprofit tax-exempt organization, the Hospital is subject to federal, state and local laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions relating to its organization and operation, including its operation for charitable purposes.

22

Recently, an increasing number of the operations or practices of healthcare providers have been challenged or questioned to determine if they are consistent with the regulatory requirements for nonprofit tax-exempt organizations. These challenges, in some cases, are broader than concerns about compliance with federal and state statutes and regulations, such as Medicare and Medicaid compliance, and instead in some cases examine core business practices of healthcare organizations. Areas which have come under examination have included pricing practices, billing and collection practices, charitable care methods of providing and reporting community benefit, executive compensation, exemption of property from real property taxation, and others. These challenges and questions have come from a variety of sources, including state attorneys general, the IRS, labor unions, Congress, state legislatures, and patients, and in a variety of forums, including hearings, audits and litigation. If the Hospital were to face a challenge of this nature, it could have a material impact on the financial condition of the Hospital in the future. These challenges or examinations include the following, among others:

Litigation Relating to Billing and Collection Practices. Lawsuits have been filed against various nonprofit health care providers in federal and state courts across the country regarding billing and collection practices relating to the uninsured. The lawsuits are premised on the notion that federal and state laws require nonprofit health care providers to provide certain levels of free or discounted health care to the uninsured. Thus, the plaintiffs in those lawsuits have alleged, among other things, that the defendants violated federal and state law by billing the uninsured at undiscounted rates, that the medical bills the defendants sent to the uninsured are inflated, and that the defendants engaged in unfair debt collection practices.

Congressional Hearings. In recent years, multiple congressional committees have conducted hearings and other proceedings inquiring into various practices of nonprofit hospitals and health care providers. Among the legislation proposed or discussed as a result of these hearings and proceedings are: (1) establishment of minimum required levels of charity care to be provided by nonprofit health care providers; (2) periodic review of hospitals’ tax-exempt status by the IRS; and (3) greater and more uniform reporting of charitable and community benefit activities.

Revision of IRS Form 990 for Not-for-Profit Corporations. The IRS Form 990 is used by 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organizations (including the Hospital) to submit information required by the federal government for tax exemption. The revised form 990 requires detailed public disclosure of compensation practices, corporate governance, loans to management and others, joint ventures and other types of transactions, political campaign activities, and other areas the IRS deems to be compliance risk areas. The revised form also requires the disclosure of a significantly greater amount of both hard data and anecdotal information on community benefits on Schedule H to the Form 990, and establishes uniform standards for reporting of information relating to tax-exempt bonds, including compliance with the arbitrage rules and rules limiting private use of bond-financed facilities, including compliance with the safe harbor guidance in connection with management contracts and research contracts. The redesigned Form 990 is intended to enhance transparency as to the operations of exempt organizations. It is also likely to result in enhanced enforcement, as the redesigned Form 990 will make a wealth of detailed information on compliance risk areas available to the IRS and other enforcement agencies. Completion of the revised Form 990 has placed an additional burden on the Hospital.

IRS Enforcement of Community Benefit. The IRS has undertaken a community benefit initiative directed at hospitals. The IRS determined that a lack of uniformity in definitions of community benefit used by reporting hospitals, including those regarding uncompensated care and various types of benefits, made it difficult for the IRS to assess whether any particular hospital is in compliance with current law. Schedule H of the revised Form 990, which hospitals must use to report their community benefit activities, including the cost of providing charity care and other tax-exemption related information. Proposals have also been made within Congress to codify the requirements for hospitals’

23

tax-exempt status, including requirements to conduct a regular community needs analysis and to provide minimum levels of charity care.

The Affordable Care Act (as hereinafter defined) imposes additional requirements on non-profit hospitals in order to maintain their tax-exempt status. First, each hospital must conduct a community health needs assessment at least once every three taxable years and adopt an implementation strategy to meet the needs identified, or subject to an excise tax penalty of $50,000. Hospitals must disclose a summary of the assessment and implementation strategy and audited financial statements on the revised Form 990. The Secretary of the Treasury must review the community benefit of the activities of each tax- exempt hospital at least once every three years. Second, each hospital must adopt, implement and publicize a financial assistance policy and a policy relating to emergency medical care. Third, hospitals must limit the charges for emergency or other medically necessary care provided to individuals eligible for assistance under the financial assistance policy to not more than the amounts generally billed to individuals who have insurance that covers such care. Finally, a hospital may not engage in extraordinary collection actions before making reasonable efforts to determine whether an individual is eligible for assistance under the organization’s financial assistance policy.

In addition, the Treasury Department is required to review information about each tax-exempt hospital’s community benefit activities at least once every three years, as well as to submit an annual report to Congress with information regarding the levels of charity care, bad debt expenses, unreimbursed costs of government programs, and costs incurred by tax-exempt hospitals for community benefit activities. The periodic reviews and reports to Congress regarding the community benefits provided by 501(c)(3) hospitals may increase the likelihood that Congress will require such hospital to provide a minimum level of charity care in order to retain tax-exempt status and may increase IRS scrutiny of particular 501(c)(3) hospital organizations.

IRS Focus on Compensation, Private Benefit and Private Inurement. In 2004, the IRS began a new compliance program to measure compliance by tax-exempt organizations with requirements that they not pay excessive compensation and benefits to their officers and other insiders. In February 2009, the IRS issued its Hospital Compliance Project Final Report (the “IRS Final Report”) that examined tax- exempt hospitals’ practices and procedures with regard to compensation and benefits paid to their officers and other defined “insiders.” The IRS Final Report indicates that the IRS (1) will continue to heavily scrutinize executive compensation and arrangements, practices and procedures of tax-exempt hospitals and other tax-exempt organizations; and (2) in certain circumstances, may conduct further investigations or impose fines on such organizations.

As a tax-exempt organization, the Hospital is limited with respect to the use of practice income guarantees, reduced rent on medical office space, below market interest loans, joint venture programs, and other means of recruiting and retaining physicians. The IRS scrutinizes a broad variety of contractual relationships commonly entered into by hospitals and affiliated entities, including the Hospital, and has issued detailed hospital audit guidelines suggesting that field agents scrutinize numerous activities of hospitals in an effort to determine whether any action should be taken with respect to limitations on, or revocation of, their tax-exempt status or assessment of additional tax. The IRS has also commenced intensive audits of select health care providers to determine whether the activities of these providers are consistent with their continued tax-exempt status. The IRS has indicated that, in certain circumstances, violation of the fraud and abuse statutes could constitute grounds for revocation of a hospital’s tax- exempt status.

Section 501(c)(3) of the Code specifically conditions the continued exemption of all Section 501(c)(3) organizations upon the requirement, among others, that no part of the net earnings of the organization inure to the benefit of any private individual. Any violation of the prohibition against private

24

inurement may cause the organization to lose its tax-exempt status under 501(c)(3) of the Code. The IRS has issued guidance in informal private letter rulings and general counsel memoranda on some situations that give rise to private inurement, but there is no definitive body of law and no regulations or public advisory rulings that address many common arrangements between exempt health care providers and nonexempt individuals or entities. There can be no assurances concerning the outcome of an audit or other investigation given the lack of clear authority interpreting the range of activities undertake by the Hospital.

Intermediate sanctions legislation enacted in 1996 imposes penalty excise taxes in cases where an exempt organization is found to have engaged in an “excess benefit transaction” with a “distinguished person.” Such penalty excise taxes may be imposed in lieu of revocation of exemption or in addition to such revocation in cases where the magnitude or nature of the excess benefit call into question whether the organization functions as a public charity. The tax is imposed both on the disqualified person receiving such excess benefit and on any officer, director, trustee or other person having similar powers or responsibilities who participated in the transaction willfully or without reasonable cause, knowing it will involve “excess benefit.” “Excess benefit transactions” include transactions in which a disqualified person receives compensation for services that exceeds the fair market value of the services provided by the disqualified person. “Disqualified persons” include “insiders” such as board members and officers, senior management, and members of the medical staff, who in each case are in a position to substantially influence the affairs of the organization; their family members; and entities which are more than 35% controlled by a disqualified person.

Any imposition of a penalty excise tax in lieu of revocation, based upon a finding that the Hospital engaged in an excess benefit transaction would be likely to result in negative publicity and other consequences that could have a materially adverse effect on the operations, property or assets of the Hospital.

Tax Audits. Taxing authorities have historically conducted tax audits of non-profit organizations to confirm that such organizations are in compliance with applicable tax rules and in some instances have collected significant payments as part of the settlement process. Such audit processes may be prolonged, and it may take several years to reach the final determination of allowable amounts. The Hospital is not currently under audit.

The foregoing are some examples of the challenges and examinations facing nonprofit healthcare organizations. They are indicative of a greater scrutiny of the billing, collection and other business practices of these organizations, and may indicate an increasingly more difficult operating environment for healthcare organizations. The challenges and examinations, and any resulting legislation, regulations, judgments, or penalties, could have a material adverse effect on the Hospital.

Challenges to Real Property Tax Exemptions. Recently, the real property tax exemptions afforded to certain nonprofit healthcare providers by state and local taxing authorities have been challenged on the grounds that the healthcare providers were not engaged in charitable activities. These challenges have been based on a variety of grounds, including allegations of aggressive billing and collection practices and excessive financial margins. While the Hospital is not aware of any current challenge to the tax exemption afforded to any material real property of the Hospital, there can be no assurance that these types of challenges will not occur in the future.

Charity Care. Hospitals are permitted to qualify for tax-exempt status under the Code because the provision of health care historically has been treated as a “charitable” enterprise. This treatment arose before most Americans had health insurance, when charitable donations were required to fund the health care provided to the sick and disabled. Some commentators and others have taken the position that, with

25

the onset of employer health insurance and governmental reimbursement programs, there is no longer any justification for special tax treatment for the health care industry, and the availability for tax-exempt status should be eliminated. Furthermore, federal and state tax authorities are beginning to demand that tax-exempt hospitals justify their tax-exempt status by documenting their charitable care and other community benefits.

As described above under the caption “Nonprofit Healthcare Environment – Litigation Relating to Billing and Collection Practices,” charity care issues also serve as the basis of certain claims against major hospital systems throughout the United States on behalf of uninsured patients. Many lawsuits filed against non-profit hospitals raise a number of claims against the hospital defendants, including claims that the defendants, by accepting tax-exempt status, entered into agreements with the federal, state and local governments promising to provide free or reduced care to all those who need it; the uninsured patients are beneficiaries of those agreements and can bring suit on them; the defendants engaged in illegal and oppressive tactics against the uninsured; the defendants engaged in illegal price discrimination by charging the uninsured rates far in excess of the rates charged to such third party payors as Medicare and certain insurers; the defendants violated state consumer fraud statutes; the defendants allowed a portion of their properties to be used by for-profit entities at less than fair value and engaged in other inappropriate transactions with doctors and certain insiders; the defendants transferred monies illegally to their affiliates for other than charitable purposes; and the defendants and the American Hospital Association, another named defendant in many of the lawsuits, conspired with the defendants to charge illegal prices to the uninsured.

Litigation has been initiated against several hospitals in the United States by individual uninsured plaintiffs alleging, among other things, that the defendants violated their duty to the plaintiffs by charging higher rates and fees for services to those plaintiffs than the hospitals received from Blue Cross Blue Shield entities, Medicare, Medicaid or other insurers. Among the remedies sought by the plaintiffs are money damages and a court order against the defendants compelling them to reduce the rates and fees charged to uninsured patients. The Hospital has not been named in any such law suit.

Federal Legislation

On January 2, 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (the “Taxpayer Relief Act”) was signed into law to address the federal deficit and the budget sequestration provisions of the Budget Control Act of 2011. The Taxpayer Relief Act postponed the budget sequestration provisions of the Budget Control Act of 2011 for two months to allow Congress to attempt to reach a budget compromise. With no budget compromise forthcoming, on March 1, 2013, the President issued a sequestration order, requiring across-the-board reductions in Federal spending. Accordingly, on March 8, 2013, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) announced that Medicare claims for payment with a date of service or date of discharge on or after April 1, 2013, will incur a two percent (2%) reduction in Medicare payment. Under current law, sequestration is scheduled to continue through 2021. Congress and the Administration could reach a budget deal to end sequestration. It is impossible to predict, however, if a budget deal will be made and whether any such budget deal would have an impact on federal spending on the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Likewise, it is not possible to predict whether additional budget control measures will be made to the Medicare payment system in light of Federal budgetary pressures.

On March 23, 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law and on March 30, 2010, the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act was signed into law and amended the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Together, these laws (hereinafter referred to as the “Affordable Care Act”) introduce the most far reaching changes in our national health care system since the creation of Medicare in 1965. Implementation of the Affordable Care Act will affect health care organizations in countless ways through insurance reforms, changes in Medicare and Medicaid provider

26

payments, quality and transparency initiatives, and delivery system reforms. Many of the numerous health care related provisions in the Affordable Care Act take effect over a four-year period and include such provisions as prohibiting health insurers from denying coverage or refusing claims based on pre- existing conditions, expanding Medicaid eligibility, subsidizing insurance premiums, providing incentives for businesses to provide health care benefits, and establishing health insurance exchanges.

The primary purpose of the Affordable Care Act is to extend health insurance coverage to approximately thirty-two (32) million Americans currently uninsured. Medicaid may be expanded to cover all adults earning less than 133% of the federal poverty level, and private health insurance will be made available to individuals and small companies through exchanges that will be run by the states. Individuals who do not buy health care insurance, and employers that do not offer health insurance to workers, will be subject to monetary penalties. The expectation is that the reforms will provide coverage to most Americans, with approximately half of those currently uninsured covered through possible expansions of Medicaid and more or less the other half through private insurance.

The Affordable Care Act will also impact health care provider payment and care delivery models. The current fee-for-service models have been criticized for contributing to higher costs and systematic fragmentation. New programs in the Affordable Care Act will promote emerging payment and care delivery models and the development of alternative payment systems designed to reward providers for improving care coordination, demonstrating quality improvement and providing greater transparency about care processes and outcomes. These new systems include bundled payment, value-based purchasing, accountable care organizations and patient-centered medical homes.

Although the Affordable Care Act is likely to affect many aspects of hospital operations, it is not possible to predict the effects that these and other federal statutes will have on hospital revenues or whether additional changes will be made to the Medicare payment system in light of Federal budgetary pressures. In addition, it is not possible to predict whether and to what extent there may be changes made to the Affordable Care Act, through legislation or as a result of legal challenges, and whether and to what extent any such changes may impact hospital revenues.

The U.S. Supreme Court decided the constitutionality of certain provisions of the Affordable Care Act in National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius: (i) the “individual mandate” that requires individuals to purchase health insurance starting in 2014 or be penalized, and (ii) the expansion of the Medicaid program. On June 28, 2012, the Supreme Court of the United States upheld a constitutional challenge to the Affordable Care Act. The Court held that the insurance mandate was constitutional under Congress’s taxing power. However, the Court ruled that Congress’s expansion of the Medicaid program was unconstitutional because it would have withdrawn all federal funding to states that did not abide by the expansion. Accordingly, states have the option of expanding Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act. In a subsequent case decided in June 2015, King v. Burwell, the Supreme Court upheld the grant of federal subsidies to individuals who obtain insurance through the federally managed health insurance exchange.

Although the Supreme Court’s ruling removed a significant source of uncertainty surrounding the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, legislative repeal under a future Congress or Presidential administration remains a possibility. Controversy over the Affordable Care Act continues even after the Supreme Court’s decisions and the implementation under the Affordable Care Act of the health insurance exchanges at the federal level and in states that elected to establish marketplaces. These exchanges began enrolling individuals in late 2013 for coverage in 2014; the enrollment period for 2016 concluded in January 2016.

27

The U.S. House of Representatives has voted many times over the past several years to repeal the Affordable Care Act, in whole or in part, and to cut funding for various Affordable Care Act provisions. Similar efforts in the U.S. Senate were unsuccessful until December 2015 when the Senate voted to repeal most of the Affordable Care Act. The Senate’s bill was adopted through budget reconciliation, which required a majority vote, rather than 60 votes generally required. After the House adopted this bill, it was sent to President Obama, who vetoed it. Efforts to override the President’s veto were unsuccessful.

Additionally, many of the reductions in reimbursement to health care providers included in the Affordable Care Act have yet to take full effect, and the increased health care coverage anticipated to derive from the Affordable Care Act has not yet been realized. The practical consequences of the Affordable Care Act, as well as of other future federal and state actions to cut costs and change the health care delivery system, cannot be foreseen. The Hospital cannot predict with any reasonable degree of certainty or reliability any interim or ultimate effects of the legislation. Moreover, uncertainties regarding the implementation of the Affordable Care Act on a national level and in New York State create unpredictability for the strategic and business planning efforts of health care providers, which in itself constitutes a risk. These uncertainties become particularly pronounced as the nation approaches the 2016 Presidential election. Some of the specific provisions of the Affordable Care Act that may affect the Hospital’s operations, financial performance or financial condition are described below. This listing is not intended to be, nor should be considered by as comprehensive. The Affordable Care Act is complex, and includes a myriad of new programs, initiatives, and changes to existing programs, policies, practices and laws. For a comprehensive understanding, Holders of the Series 2016 Bonds should review the Affordable Care Act in its entirety.

Federal and State Policies Affecting Health Care Facilities. Health care facilities may be affected significantly by changes in federal health care policy. These changes may reduce federal payments under Medicaid and Medicare, increase or reduce federal regulation of health facilities and encourage more competition among health care providers. The impact of future cost control programs and future legislation upon the projected financial performance of the Obligated Group cannot be determined at this time.

Risks Related to Rules Governing Payment for Healthcare Services

The Medicare and Medicaid Programs. Medicare provides certain health care benefits to beneficiaries who are 65 years of age or older, disabled or qualify for the End Stage Renal Disease Program. Medicare is administered by CMS, of the federal Department of Health and Human Services. Medicaid is funded jointly by the federal government and the states and provides medical assistance to certain needy individuals and families. Significant changes have been and may be made in the Medicare and Medicaid programs that could have a material adverse impact on the financial condition of the Obligated Group, for example, by decreasing the amount of payment for services. In addition, the requirements for Medicare and Medicaid certification are subject to change, and to remain qualified for participation in such programs, it may be necessary for the Hospital to effect changes from time to time in its facilities, equipment, personnel, billing processes, policies and services.

Medicare

Medicare pays acute care hospitals for services provided on an inpatient basis according to the inpatient prospective payment system (“PPS”). PPS pays hospitals a pre-determined amount for services. The amount of the payment is the product of a nationally determined base payment rate, which is adjusted for a variety of factors on a hospital-specific basis, and a relative weight that reflects the anticipated costs of care in a particular clinical category compared with a national average of all cases. The base rate is designed to provide some payment to hospitals for both inpatient operating and capital related costs. The

28

base rate is adjusted by factors related to market conditions of a hospital’s geographic location and other circumstances of a particular hospital, such as whether it is a teaching hospital. The relative weight factor of a PPS calculation depends on the clinical category of services rendered to a patient. The clinical category is determined by how a patient’s case is classified at discharge under one of hundreds of Severity Diagnosis Related Groups (“MS-DRG”) defined by the CMS.

The PPS standardized base rates are updated annually based on a statistical estimate of the increase (the “update factor”) in the cost of goods and services used by hospitals in providing care (the “market basket”). Currently, the update factor equals the percentage increase in the market basket, but from time to time Congress has set updates legislatively that are less than the market basket. For every year since 1983, Congress has modified the increases and given substantially less than the increase in the market basket index. The Affordable Care Act provides for additional reductions to the market basket update, as well as other payment adjustments, in future years. There is, therefore, no assurance that future updates in MS-DRG payments will keep pace with the increases in providing inpatient hospital services.

Hospitals receive additional payment for cases that exceed MS-DRG-specific cost thresholds, referred to as “outlier payments”. In addition, hospitals that satisfy specific program requirements may be eligible to receive additional revenue to defray the costs of organ procurement and treatments that use new technologies. With the exception of outlier cases, PPS payments are not adjusted for actual costs or variations in service or length of stay. The PPS amount and adjustments described above are calculated using formulae established by CMS that are revised periodically pursuant to federal budgetary policy. There is no assurance that the Hospital will be paid amounts that adequately reflect the actual cost of providing health care or the cost of the health care technologies available to patients.

Medicare also pays providers for inpatient psychiatric services on a PPS basis. Under that system, Medicare pays for the per diem routine, ancillary, and capital costs associated with those services. A base per diem payment is adjusted to account for differences in the cost of care related to patient characteristics (e.g., age, diagnosis, and length of stay) and facility characteristics (e.g., location and teaching status).

The Affordable Care Act also contains reductions in Medicare market basket updates and cuts in Medicare and Medicaid disproportionate share hospital (“DSH”) payments for providing care to low income and uninsured patients.

Beginning in 2014, hospitals receiving DSH payments have had these payments cut by up to 75% (offset, however, by the level of uninsured that remains). The base 25% is supplemented by additional payments based on the volume of uninsured and uncompensated care provided by each such hospital, and is anticipated to be offset by a higher proportion of covered patients as other provisions of the Affordable Care Act take effect. Separately, beginning in 2016, Medicaid DSH allotments to each state are reduced based on a methodology to be determined by the United States Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), accounting for statewide reductions in uninsured and uncompensated care. CMS has issued a proposed rule to change the methodology of Medicare DHS allotments according to a calculation using limited data from the Medicare Cost Report Worksheet S-10 beginning in federal fiscal year 2018. The proposed rule, if enacted, would cause the Hospital to experience significant future payment reductions in connection with DHS allotments.

Beginning in 2013, Medicare inpatient payments to each hospital were reduced based on the dollar value of that hospital’s percentage of preventable Medicare readmissions for certain medical conditions. For fiscal years 2015 and 2016, a hospital’s payments can be reduced by a maximum of 3%. In addition, as permitted by the Affordable Care Act, CMS expanded the conditions measured for the readmission rate penalties beginning in 2015 to include additional conditions.

29

Teaching hospitals receive increases to their Medicare PPS payment for costs related to training physicians and other medical professionals (graduate medical education (“GME”) payments), as well as for providing care to a high level of Medicaid and disabled patients (disproportionate share payments or DSH payments). There are two forms of payment for GME: Direct Graduate Medical Education (“DGME”) and Indirect Medical Education (“IME”) payments. DGME payments support the direct costs of training (e.g., resident stipends, supervision), while IME payments support the higher infrastructure relating to teaching, greater patient acuity and the extensive “stand-by” capabilities of teaching hospitals. While a recommendation from The Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (“MedPAC”) and a CMS proposed rule both have suggested reducing the level of IME adjustments, such reduction has not yet been implemented. There can be no assurance that payments to the Hospital for providing medical education will be adequate to cover the costs attributable to medical education programs for training residents, nurses and allied health professionals.

Hospital outpatient services also are paid by Medicare according to a prospective payment system for hospital outpatient services (“OPPS”). Under OPPS, most outpatient services are grouped into one of approximately 800 Ambulatory Patient Classifications and paid a uniform national payment amount adjusted for area wage differences and the average amount of resources required to provide the service (e.g., visit, chest x-ray, surgical procedure). OPPS applies to most hospital outpatient services, other than ambulance and rehabilitation services, clinical diagnostic laboratory services, dialysis for end-stage renal disease, non-implantable durable medical equipment, prosthetic devices and orthotics. Hospitals can receive three additional payments in addition to the amount determined under the standard OPPS rule: pass-through payments for certain new technologies; outlier payments for unusually costly cases; and special payments to certain children’s and cancer hospitals. Outpatient services not covered by OPPS are paid on the basis of fee schedules, the lower of costs or charges, or a blend of fee schedules and costs.

The Affordable Care Act directs the Medicare Independent Payment Advisory Board (“IPAB”) to provide recommendations to reduce Medicare cost growth if growth exceeds established targets. If Congress does not adopt alternative legislation to meet the savings targets, the Affordable Care Act provides for the IPAB’s recommendations to be automatically implemented. Starting in 2020, hospitals will be subject to the IPAB’s cost reduction proposals. The IPAB was to begin submitting its annual recommendations no later than January 2014. However, President Obama has not yet appointed the IPAB members. Additionally, the Chief Actuary of CMS has concluded that the projected Medicare per capita growth rate has not yet exceeded the targeted growth rate and there will be no need for IPAB activity at least through 2016. In June 2015, the House of Representatives voted to repeal the IPAB, but the Senate has not approved the repeal.

In 1986 Congress enacted the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (“EMTALA”) in response to allegations of inappropriate hospital transfers of indigent and uninsured emergency patients. EMTALA imposes strict requirements on hospitals in the treatment and transfer of patients with emergency medical conditions.

EMTALA requires hospitals to provide a medical screening examination to any individual who comes to the hospital’s dedicated emergency department (“DED”) for treatment, without regard to ability to pay, to determine whether the individual suffers from an emergency medical condition within the meaning of the statute. A DED is licensed by the state in which it is located as an emergency room or department, or is held out to the public as a place providing care for emergency medical conditions without requiring an appointment or during the immediately preceding calendar year, provided treatment of emergency medical conditions without requiring an appointment for at least one-third of all of its out- patient visits. A participating hospital may not delay provision of a medical screening examination in order to inquire about method of payment or insurance status. If an emergency medical condition is present, the hospital must provide such additional medical examination and treatment as may be required

30

to stabilize the emergency medical condition. If the hospital deems it in the best interest of the individual to transfer the individual to another medical facility, the treating physician must execute a transfer certificate complying with the standards of the EMTALA and must provide a medically appropriate transfer.

EMTALA imposes significant costs on hospitals, including the costs of treatment of individuals who may not be able to pay for such services, costs of development and implementation of protocols concerning medical screening examinations and stabilization and appropriate transfers and, in some cases, costs associated with assuring on-call availability of special physicians.

If a hospital with 100 beds or more violates EMTALA, whether knowingly and willfully or negligently, it is subject to a civil money penalty of up to $50,000 per violation. Failure to satisfy the requirements of EMTALA may also result in termination of the hospital’s provider agreement. In addition, EMTALA creates a private cause of action for individuals who suffer personal harm as a result of an EMTALA violation, and for any hospital that suffers financial loss as a result of another hospital’s violation of EMTALA. This is a complaint-driven process, so any patient or family member could allege an EMTALA violation. The statute of limitations for filing such a civil action is two years.

The Medicare payment rules are reviewed, and many of them are revised, annually based on recommendations from government advisory commissions, such as MedPAC, and other sources, including health care providers. MedPAC has encouraged CMS to reduce payments for hospital-based services to the levels paid for comparable services to freestanding independent facilities, which could lead to a decrease in Medicare payments received by the Hospital. In the future, continuing revisions to these rules may also lead to a decrease in Medicare payment received by the Hospital. The Medicare program has experienced frequent legislative, regulatory and administrative revisions in its payment methodologies and other provisions, many of which have sought to reduce the rate of increase in the cost of the program. It is likely that revisions will continue, some of which may adversely affect the Medicare payment which the Hospital receives.

In the 2014 Medicare inpatient prospective payment system final rule, CMS promulgated the two- midnight rule. Under this rule administrative contractors auditing the medical necessity of inpatient hospital admissions have been directed to consider admissions spanning less than two midnights to be, except in rare and unusual cases, outpatient cases.

Medicare Advantage

Medicare Advantage plans are alternate insurance products offered by private companies that engage in direct managed care risk contracting with the Medicare program. Under the Medicare Advantage program these private companies agree to accept a fixed, per-beneficiary payment from the Medicare program to cover all care that the beneficiary may require. In recent years, a similar program involving private insurers providing coverage to Medicare beneficiaries, known as the Medicare+Choice program, failed after changes were made to its funding methodologies and many private managed care companies discontinued their participation. The result was that the beneficiaries who were covered by the now-discontinued Medicare+Choice plans shifted back into the traditional Medicare fee-for-service program or into a Medicare cost plan.

Future legislation or regulations may decrease the financial incentives available to private insurers who offer Medicare Advantage plans and cause some of them to no longer offer those plans. This would likely increase the burdens of the traditional Medicare program as payment obligations revert from private insurers to the Federal government. Other legislative or regulatory changes to the Medicare Advantage program could occur that might increase or decrease its popularity and level of acceptance

31

among Medicare beneficiaries. The effect of such future legislation/regulation is unknown but could materially and adversely affect the Hospital.

The costs of providing a unit of care may exceed the revenues realized from Medicare for providing that service. Additionally, the aggregate costs to a hospital of providing care to Medicare beneficiaries may exceed aggregate Medicare revenues received during the relevant fiscal period.

Other Medicare Service Payments. Medicare payment for skilled nursing services, psychiatric services, inpatient rehabilitation services, general outpatient services and home health services are based on regulatory formulas or pre-determined rates. There is no guarantee that these rates, as they may change from time to time, will be adequate to cover the actual cost of providing these services to Medicare patients.

Payment of Hospital Capital Costs.

Hospitals are paid on a fully prospective basis for capital costs (including depreciation and interest) related to the provision of inpatient services to Medicare beneficiaries. Thus, capital costs are paid exclusively on the basis of a standard federal rate (based upon average national costs of capital), subject to certain adjustments (such as for disproportionate share, indirect medical education and outlier cases) specific to the hospital.

There can be no assurance that the prospective payments for capital costs will continue under either Medicare or Medicaid, or that such payments will be sufficient to cover the actual capital-related costs of the Hospital allocable to Medicare patient stays, or that such payments will provide adequate flexibility in meeting the Hospital’s future capital needs. New York State recently announced long- awaited capital awards as part of the DSRIP program (discussed further below). The Hospital received $11.2 million of capital awards under the DSRIP Capital Restructuring Financing Program. The Hospital will be providing a 1:1 match of the award.

Payment for Physician Services. Certain physician services are paid on a national fee schedule called the “resource-based-relative-value scale” (“RB-RVS”). The RB-RVS fee schedule establishes payment amounts for all physician services, including services of provider-based physicians, and is subject to annual updates. The Sustainable Growth Rate formula (“SGR”), which is a limit on the growth of Medicare payments for physician services, was enacted in 1997 and linked to changes in the U.S. Gross Domestic Product over a ten-year period. Every year since 2003, Congress provided temporary relief from scheduled “negative” updates that would have reduced physician payments. In April 2015, Congress passed and the President signed the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015, which permanently repealed the SGR. As a result, payments under the Medicare physician fee schedule for services rendered on or after April 1, 2015 will not be cut by approximately 20%, as would have been required absent legislative action. Instead, current payment rates will increase by 0.5% through 2019 and then remain constant from 2020 through 2025. Beginning in 2019, physicians will be required to choose between two different Medicare payment options. Under the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (“MIPS”), physicians will be subject to payment adjustments of +/- 4% in 2019, growing to +/- 9% in 2022 and beyond, based on their performance against certain quality metrics that have yet to be defined by CMS. High-performing physicians will be eligible to receive bonus payments under MIPS. Physicians participating in Alternative Payment Models (“APMs”), which will also be defined later by CMS, can elect to be exempted from MIPS and will receive a 5% annual bonus for participation between 2019 and 2024. Beginning in 2026, physicians participating in APMs will be eligible for annual payment updates of 1.0%, with all other physicians receiving updates of 0.5%.

32

Medicare Trust Funds. Two trust funds are maintained as part of the Medicare Program. Hospital Insurance (“HI”) or Medicare Part A, helps to pay for hospital, home health, skilled nursing facility, and hospice care for the aged and disabled (including certain individuals with end stage renal disease) and is financed primarily by payroll taxes paid by workers and employers. Supplementary Medical Insurance (“SMI”) consists of Medicare Part B and Part D. Part B helps pay for physician, outpatient, and other services for the aged and disabled who have voluntarily enrolled. Part D initially provided access to prescription drug discount cards and transitional assistance to low-income beneficiaries. In 2006 and later, Part D provides subsidized access to drug insurance coverage on a voluntary basis for beneficiaries.

The Medicare Board of Trustees annual report to Congress on July 28, 2014 (the “Medicare Annual Report”) indicated that the HI Trust Fund is not adequately financed and is projected to be exhausted in 2030, four years later than projected in 2013. The Medicare Annual Report noted that HI expenditures have exceeded income annually since 2008 and are projected to continue doing so through 2014. The trustees projected slight surpluses in 2015 through 2022, with a return to deficits thereafter until the HI Trust Fund becomes depleted in 2030. The Part B and Part D accounts in the SMI Trust Fund were projected to be adequately financed over the next 10 years because premiums and general revenue income are reset each year to match expected costs. Such financing, however would have to increase rapidly to match expected expenditure growth and to rebuild the Part B assets to an appropriate level. The trustees expressed the need for timely action to address Medicare’s financial challenges and promote consideration of reforms for the program in the near future. Accordingly, it is likely that statutory and regulatory attempts to contain increases in Medicare costs will continue in the future.

The Medicaid Program

Under Medicaid, the federal government provides grants to states that have medical assistance programs that meet federal standards. Competing pressures on the federal budget and the State’s attempt to address its own budgetary needs have also resulted in uncertainty with respect to Medicaid spending. Such decreases in spending may have a material adverse impact on the future financial condition of the Hospital.

Under federal law, Medicaid coverage is mandatory for persons receiving assistance from Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (previously known as Aid to Families With Dependent Children) or the federal Supplemental Social Security (“SSI”) program and for certain categories of children and pregnant women. Implementation of the Medicaid program falls to each state, however, and there are significant variations in virtually all aspects of the Medicaid program across states. State specific variations arise from the fact that the Medicaid statute allows for optional benefits and categories of beneficiaries, as well as waivers of general statutory requirements to implement specific programs or demonstration projects.

Under the Affordable Care Act, the new health insurance exchanges, increased employer insurance coverage requirements, and Medicaid expansions have decreased the number of uninsured patients. This increase in insured patients could result in lower levels of bad debt and increased utilization or profitable shifts in utilization patterns for hospitals generally. New York State, which has established its own exchange and participated in the Medicaid expansion, enrolled nearly 1.0 million New Yorkers in health plans during the initial enrollment period (October 1, 2013 through April 15, 2014), over 2.1 million during the 2015 enrollment period and over 2.7 million in the 2016 enrollment period. Nonetheless, given the continued political controversy about the Affordable Care Act and that it remains in the early years of its implementation, it remains unclear how these Affordable Care Act insurance changes will impact the Hospital.

33

Audits and Withholds

Participating providers are subject to audits and retroactive audit adjustments with respect to the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Such adjustments could exceed reserves and could be substantial. Medicare and Medicaid regulations also provide for withholding payments in certain circumstances. Any withholds that may occur could have a material adverse impact on the future financial condition of the Hospital. Management of the Hospital is not aware of audits or any material payment withhold by either Medicare or Medicaid.

Private Health Plans and Insurers

Certain private insurance companies contract with hospitals on an “exclusive” or a “preferred” provider basis, and some insurers have plans known as “preferred provider organizations” (“PPOs”). Under such plans, there may be financial incentives for subscribers to use only those hospitals which contract with the plans. Under an exclusive provider plan, which includes most HMOs, private payors limit coverage to those services provided by selected hospitals within the provider plan. With this contracting authority, private payors may direct patients away from nonselected hospitals by denying coverage for services provided by them. In addition, PPOs and HMOs may limit the participation of a provider.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, payments from commercial insurers (including Blue Cross) represented approximately 56% of the Hospital’s net patient service revenues. To be updated for recent year or remove. Such programs individually negotiate payment terms with the Hospital, which terms include discounted fee-for-service payments or discounted fixed rate per day/case of care payments. There also are additional provisions by which the Hospital shares in the risk associated with the cost of providing health care services. There is no assurance that the Hospital’s exposure to such contracts or arrangements will not increase in the future. Increased participation may maintain or increase the patient base, but the discounts offered to HMOs and PPOs may result in reduced payments and lower net revenue to the Hospital.

Some HMOs are now offering or mandating a “capitation” payment method under which hospitals are paid a predetermined periodic rate for each enrollee in the HMO who is “assigned” to, or otherwise directed to receive care at, a particular hospital. In a capitated payment system, the health care provider assumes an insurance type risk for the cost and scope of care given to the HMO’s enrollees. If payment under an HMO or PPO contract is insufficient to meet the provider’s costs of care, the financial condition of the provider may erode rapidly and significantly. Often, HMO or PPO contracts are enforceable for a stated term, regardless of provider losses. Recently, certain HMOs and PPOs have experienced financial difficulties, and some have resorted to bankruptcy proceedings. It is not possible, at this time, to predict the future of the managed care industry in general in relation to specific HMOs or PPOs with which the Hospital contracts.

Legislative and Regulatory Actions Affecting Health Care Facilities

Federal and state governments have enacted health care fraud and abuse laws to regulate both the provision of services to government program beneficiaries and the methods and requirements for submitting claims for services rendered to those beneficiaries. These laws penalize individuals and organizations for submitting claims for services (i) they did not provide, (ii) that were not medically necessary, (iii) provided by an improper person, (iv) that involved an illegal inducement to utilize or refrain from utilizing a service or product, or (v) billed in a manner that does not comply with applicable government requirements. The scope of certain federal and state fraud and abuse laws has been expanded to include non-governmental, private health care plans.

34

Federal and state governments have a range of criminal, civil and administrative sanctions available to penalize and remediate health care fraud and abuse, including imposing civil money penalties, suspending payments and excluding the provider from participating in the federal and state health care programs. One or more government entities and/or private individuals can prosecute fraud and abuse cases, and courts and/or regulators can impose more than one of the available penalties for each violation.

Laws governing fraud and abuse apply to virtually all individuals and entities with which a hospital does business, including other hospitals, home health agencies, long term care entities, infusion providers, pharmaceutical providers, insurers, MCOs, PPOs, third party administrators, physicians, physician groups and physician practice management companies. Fraud and abuse prosecutions can have a catastrophic effect on any of these entities, which can result in a material adverse impact on the financial condition of other entities in the same health care delivery system.

Federal Fraud and Abuse Law. In recent years, both the federal and state governments have increased enforcement of laws designed to combat health care fraud and practices that the governments regard as abusive, and additional fraud legislation has been adopted at both federal and state levels. Under the federal Medicare Medicaid Fraud and Abuse Amendments of 1977 to the Social Security Act, as amended (the “Anti-Kickback Law”), it is a felony to knowingly and willfully offer, pay, solicit or receive any remuneration (including any kickback, bribe or rebate) directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, in cash or in kind in order to induce business for which payment is provided, in whole or in part, under a federal health care program, including Medicare and Medicaid. Penalties for each violation of the Anti-Kickback Law include criminal fines and civil monetary penalties. Moreover, some courts have held that a violation of the Anti-Kickback Law may form the basis for a Federal False Claims Act suit (see discussion below). The statute does include some exceptions, and federal regulations establish numerous “safe harbors.” Arrangements that meet the safe harbor requirements are deemed not to be violations of the Anti-Kickback Law. Failure to comply with the safe harbors, however, does not mean that the activity violates the law. Arrangements that fail to qualify for safe harbor protection may or may not violate the Anti-Kickback Law depending on the facts and the intent of the parties.

The scope of the Anti-Kickback Law prohibition is, however, broadly drafted and liberally interpreted by some federal regulators and enforcement authorities. Thus, the Anti-Kickback Law may create liability in connection with a wide range of economic arrangements involving managed care entities, hospitals, physicians and other health care providers, including joint ventures, space and equipment rentals, purchases of physician practices, managed care arrangements, and management and personal services contracts. While Management of the Hospital believes that the Hospital currently complies with the Anti-Kickback Law, the ambiguity and breadth of the law mean that there can be no assurance that enforcement authorities or courts of law would agree.

In the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), Congress established a fraud and abuse control program to coordinate federal, state and local health care fraud and abuse activities. HIPAA also creates several new federal health care crimes, many of which are broadly worded and potentially applicable to a wide range of conduct. For example, HIPAA created a general prohibition on knowingly and willfully executing or attempting to execute schemes to defraud any public or private health care benefit program or making any false or fraudulent representations in any matter involving any private or public health care program.

Several federal statutes, including the Social Security Act, the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act of 1986 and the Federal False Claims Act (the “FCA”) (which is discussed in more detail below), also provide for imposition of civil monetary penalties for knowingly making false or improper claims to federal health care programs. Penalties under these statutes can be severe, ranging up to $25,000 per

35

claim plus up to three times the amount of damages sustained by the government. In addition, because the Hospital has various relationships with parties located in foreign jurisdictions, the Hospital is subject to certain laws applicable to businesses generally, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other anti-corruption laws. If the Hospital fails to comply with these or other applicable laws and regulations, it could be subject to penalties or other adverse consequences.

Penalties for noncompliance with the above referenced statutes can be substantial and could include criminal or civil liability and/or exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other health programs. Based on their internal processes, the Hospital believes that it is in compliance with the above referenced statutes; however, there can be no assurance that enforcement authorities would agree.

State Anti-Fraud and Abuse Law. In addition to the federal laws prohibiting kickbacks and other types of exchanges of remuneration for referrals of patients, New York law also prohibits such conduct and provides criminal and civil penalties for licensed facilities and individuals who make or receive payments for referrals of patients for health care services. Entities and individuals found to have violated this provision are subject to loss of licensure, fines and/or imprisonment

Federal and State Self Referrals Prohibitions. The Federal Ethics in Patient Referrals Act (known as the “Stark Law”) prohibits the referral of Medicare and Medicaid patients for certain “designated health services” to entities with which the referring physician (or an immediate family member of such physician) has a financial relationship. The statute also prohibits the entity furnishing the “designated health services” from billing the Medicare or Medicaid program for designated health services furnished pursuant to a prohibited referral. The designated health services subject to these prohibitions are clinical laboratory services, physical and occupational therapy services, radiology services (including magnetic resonance imaging, computerized tomography and ultrasound), radiation therapy services and supplies (not including nuclear medicine), durable medical equipment and supplies, parenteral and enteral nutrients (including equipment and supplies), orthotic and prosthetic devices and supplies, speech language pathology, home health services, outpatient prescription drugs and inpatient and outpatient hospital services (not including lithotripsy).

The New York Health Care Practitioner Referral Law (the “State Provisions”) is similar to the Stark Law; however, it covers all patients (irrespective of payor) and prohibits practitioners from referring a patient to a health care provider for clinical laboratory services, x-ray imaging services, radiation therapy services, physical therapy, or pharmacy services if the referring practitioner (or an immediate family member) has a financial interest in the health care provider.

A financial relationship, for purposes of the Stark Law and State Provisions (the Stark Law and State Provisions are hereinafter collectively referred to as “Stark”), is defined as either an ownership or investment interest in the entity or a compensation arrangement between the practitioner (or immediate family member) and the entity. An ownership or investment interest may be through equity, debt, or other means and includes an interest in an entity that holds an ownership or investment interest in an entity providing the designated health services. Many ordinary business practices and economically desirable arrangements with physicians would constitute “financial relationships” within the meaning of Stark.

The Stark provisions provide certain exceptions to these restrictions, but these exceptions are narrow and an arrangement must fully comply with an exception. If the relationship (which would include compensation arrangements such as employment and other professional services relationships, and ownership or investment interests) between a physician/practitioner and the hospital cannot be made to fit within the exceptions, the hospital will not be permitted to accept referrals for designated services from the physician/practitioner who has such financial relationship.

36

Violations of Stark can result in denial of payment, substantial civil money penalties, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. In certain circumstances, knowing violations may also create liability under the FCA. Enforcement actions for any such violations could have a material adverse impact on the financial condition of a health care provider, including the Hospital.

The Hospital has and may have in the future various relationships with physicians that may be characterized as financial arrangements under the Stark Law and/or the State self-referral statute. The statutes and interpretive regulations contain numerous ambiguities and are subject to varying interpretations. Under these circumstances, it is not possible to ascertain with certainty the effects that the Stark Law or the State self-referral statute may have on the Hospital’s operations or financial results.

The False Claims Act. The criminal False Claims Act (“criminal FCA”) makes it illegal to submit or present a false, fictitious or fraudulent claim to the federal government. Violation of the criminal FCA can result in imprisonment and/or a fine. The civil False Claims Act (“civil FCA”), one of the government’s primary weapons against health care fraud, allows the United States government to recover significant damages from persons or entities that submit fraudulent claims for payment to any federal agency through actions taken by the United States Attorney’s Office or the Department of Justice. The civil FCA also permits individuals to initiate actions on behalf of the government in lawsuits called qui tam actions. These qui tam plaintiffs, or “whistleblowers,” can share in the damages recovered by the government. Recent changes to the civil FCA provide that penalties may apply to persons who do not contract with the federal government but who makes, or causes to be made, a false record or statement material to a false or fraudulent claim paid by the federal government.

Under the civil FCA, health care providers may be liable if they take steps to obtain improper payments from the government by submitting false claims. Civil FCA violations have been alleged solely on the basis of alleged kickbacks or self-referrals or other conduct not in full compliance with applicable legal and regulatory standards. It is impossible to predict with certainty whether courts will uniformly hold that regulatory non-compliance and anti-kickback or self-referral violations are subject to prosecutions as false claims. If a provider, is faced with a civil FCA prosecution based on one of these theories, however, allocation of the funds required to contest or settle the matter could have a material adverse impact on that provider.

Violations of the civil FCA can result in penalties up to triple the actual damages incurred by the government and also monetary penalties.

Federal Civil Monetary Penalty Law. The federal Civil Monetary Penalty Act (“CMPA”) provides for administrative sanctions against health care providers for a broad range of billing and other abuses. These include violations of the fraud and abuse and Stark Law, as noted elsewhere in this discussion. In addition, a health care provider is liable under the CMPA if it knowingly presents, or causes to be presented, improper claims for payment under Medicare, Medicaid and other federal health care programs. A hospital that participates in arrangements known as “gainsharing” by paying a physician to limit or reduce services to Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries also would be subject to CMPA penalties. A health care provider that provides benefits to Medicare or Medicaid beneficiaries that the provider knows or should know are likely to induce the beneficiaries to choose the provider for their care also would be subject to CMPA penalties. The CMPA authorizes imposition of a civil money penalty and treble damages.

Health care providers may be found liable under the CMPA even when they did not have actual knowledge of the impropriety of their action. Knowingly undertaking the action is sufficient. Ignorance of the Medicare regulations is no defense. The imposition of civil money penalties on the Hospital if it

37

were found to be in violation of CMPA could have a material adverse impact on the Hospital’s financial condition.

The Health Insurance Portability Act and Accountability Act of 1996. HIPAA established criminal sanctions for health care fraud and applies to all health care benefit programs, whether public or private. HIPAA also provides for punishment of a health care provider for knowingly and willfully embezzling, stealing, converting or intentionally misapplying any money, funds, securities, premiums, credits, property or other assets of a health care benefit program. A health care provider convicted of health care fraud could be subject to mandatory exclusion from the Medicare program.

HIPAA also required the Department of Health and Human Services (“DHHS”) to adopt national standards for electronic health care transactions, including federal privacy standards for the protection of health information kept by health care providers that conduct certain financial and administrative transactions electronically (the “Privacy Rule”) and standards relating to the security of such health information. Compliance with the requirements of the Privacy Rule and other HIPAA requirements has required the Hospital to develop and use policies and procedures designed to inform patients about their privacy rights and how their protected health information may be used, to keep protected information secure, to train employees so that they understand the privacy procedures and practices of the Hospital and to designate a privacy officer responsible for seeing that privacy procedures are adopted and followed.

HIPAA imposes civil monetary penalties for violations and criminal penalties for knowingly obtaining or using individually identifiable health information. The penalties are in four tiers, the highest of which would impose a fine of $50,000 per violation and up to $1,500,000 for all such violations of an identical requirement or prohibition during a calendar year. A civil monetary penalty is not imposed if the violation was due to reasonable cause and was corrected within 30 days. In addition, under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act adopted in February, 2009 state Attorneys General are permitted to bring a civil action in federal district court against individuals who violate the HIPAA privacy and security standards, in order to enjoin further such violation and seek damages of up to $100 per violation, capped at $25,000 for all violations of an identical requirement or prohibition in any calendar year. In the event of a successful action, the court would be permitted to award the costs of the action and reasonable attorneys’ fees to the state.

The HITECH Act. Provisions in the 2008 Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (the “HITECH Act”), enacted as part of the economic stimulus legislation, increase the maximum civil monetary penalties for violations of HIPAA and grant enforcement authority of HIPAA to state attorneys general. The HITECH Act also (i) extends the reach of HIPAA beyond “covered entities,” (ii) imposes a breach notification requirement on HIPAA-covered entities, (iii) limits certain uses and disclosures of individually identifiable health information and (iv) restricts covered entities’ marketing communications. Management does not anticipate that compliance with the HITECH Act will have a material effect on the Hospital’s operations.

The HITECH Act also established programs under Medicare and Medicaid to provide incentive payments for the “meaningful use” of certified electronic health record (“EHR”) technology. The Medicare and Medicaid EHR incentive programs provide incentive payments to eligible professionals and eligible hospitals for demonstrating meaningful use of certified EHR technology. Health care providers demonstrate their meaningful use of EHR technology by meeting objectives specified by CMS for using health information technology and by reporting on specified clinical quality measures. Beginning in 2015, hospitals and physicians who have not satisfied the performance and reporting criteria for demonstrating meaningful use will have their Medicare and/or Medicaid payments significantly reduced.

38

The Office for Civil Rights of HHS (“OCR”) is putting increased emphasis on enforcement. OCR has entered into a number of highly publicized, high value settlements with HIPAA-covered entities stemming from alleged violations of HIPAA. The settlements are also noteworthy because they indicate that OCR is interested in enforcing violations of the HIPAA Security Rule, not just the HIPAA Privacy Rule. There have also been additional cases where state attorneys general, exercising the powers given them under the HITECH Act, have brought actions against covered entities for alleged HIPAA violations seeking significant penalties.

Exclusions from Medicare or Medicaid Participation. The Secretary of DHHS is required to exclude from governmental program participation (including Medicare and Medicaid) for not less than five years any individual or entity who has been convicted of a criminal offense relating to the delivery of any item or service paid under Medicare or a state health care program, any criminal offense relating to patient neglect or abuse in connection with the delivery of health care, felony fraud against any federal, state or locally financed health care program or an offense relating to the illegal manufacture, distribution, prescription or dispensing of a controlled substance. DHHS also may exclude individuals or entities under certain other circumstances, such as an unrelated conviction of fraud, theft, embezzlement, breach of fiduciary duty or other financial misconduct relating either to the delivery of health care in general or to participation in a federal, state or local government program. The New York State Office of the Medicaid Inspector General also has the authority to exclude individuals and entities from participation in Medicaid. Providers are excluded for reasons that may include program-related convictions, patient abuse or neglect convictions, and licensing board disciplinary actions. Exclusion of the Hospital from governmental program participation could have a material, adverse effect on the Hospital.

Enforcement. Enforcement activity against health care providers has increased and enforcement authorities have adopted aggressive approaches. In the current regulatory climate, it is anticipated that many health care providers will be subject to investigation, audit or inquiry regarding the health care fraud laws mentioned above. As with other health care providers, the Hospital may be the subject of Office of the Inspector General, U.S. Attorney General and/or Justice Department investigations, audits or inquiries in the future. Because of the complexity of these laws, the instances in which an alleged violation may arise to trigger such investigations, audits or inquiries is increasing and could result in enforcement action against the Hospital.

Enforcement authorities are in a position to compel settlements by providers charged with kickback, referral, billing practice or false claims violations by imposing or threatening to withhold Medicare, Medicaid and/or similar payments and/or exclusion and/or criminal action. In addition, the cost of defending such investigations or litigation, the time and management attention consumed thereby and the facts of a particular case may dictate settlement. Therefore, regardless of the merits of a particular case or cases, the Hospital could experience materially adverse settlement and/or litigation costs. Prolonged and publicized investigations could be damaging to the reputation, business and credit of the Hospital, regardless of the outcome, and could have material adverse consequences on the financial condition of the Hospital. In addition, the IRS has stated that violations by a tax exempt entity of certain of the fraud and abuse laws may also result in revocation of the entity’s tax-exempt status. Certain acts or transactions may result in violation or alleged violation of a number of the federal health care fraud laws described above, and therefore penalties or settlement amounts often are compounded. Generally these risks are not covered by insurance.

Voluntary Corporate Compliance. The Hospital has adopted and implemented a voluntary corporate compliance program (“Compliance Plan”). The purpose of a Compliance Plan is to detect and deter violations of law. One of the major goals of such a plan is to identify and address issues involving the submission of claims to governmental payers such as Medicare and Medicaid and whether those claims comply with statutes, regulations and other guidance provided by the programs. Integral

39

components of the Compliance Plan include a code of conduct, adoption of written standards, education, policies and procedures, auditing and monitoring, remediation of identified issues, and encouraging employees to identify potential issues.

It is possible that the Compliance Plan may bring to the attention of the Hospital issues with respect to prior practices and payments. Depending upon the nature of the issue and whether an overpayment has occurred, such a discovery may result in either voluntary or involuntary refunds to governmental payers. Enforcement authorities take into account the existence and efficacy of a provider’s voluntary compliance efforts in assessing the application and severity of penalties for a violation of federal or state rules governing reimbursement to or business relationships among providers of medical services; however, the decision of whether and how much weight to attach to voluntary compliance efforts is solely within the enforcement authorities’ discretion.

The Affordable Care Act requires that all Medicare-certified providers, including hospitals, revalidate their Medicare enrollment records by March 2015 in order for CMS to implement new screening criteria mandated by the Affordable Care Act. The Hospital revalidated its provider arrangement through this process in September 2015.

HIPAA – Administrative Simplification. In addition to provisions governing the portability of health insurance and health care fraud, HIPAA includes administrative simplification provisions (“AS Provisions”) intended to reduce costs and administrative burdens in the health care industry by standardizing the electronic transmission of many administrative and financial transactions that currently are carried out manually on paper or in many different electronic formats. The AS Provisions also impose privacy and security requirements on entities covered by HIPAA (“Covered Entities”) as well as mandate other standards such as national identifiers. Covered Entities are health plans; health care clearinghouses; and health care providers, such as the Hospital, that engage in covered transactions. Additionally, Covered Entities must enter into contracts with their business associates with whom they share protected health information to assure that such information is appropriately safeguarded and that other HIPAA requirements are met.

Under the final transaction and code set regulations promulgated by DHHS, Covered Entities must use the prescribed standards for designated electronic transactions. The final HIPAA privacy regulations impose requirements on the use and disclosure of protected health information, create individual rights, and mandate certain administrative requirements for Covered Entities. Covered Entities were expected to be in compliance with the privacy regulations. Additionally, security regulations require Covered Entities to assess risks and develop and implement appropriate security measures to protect individually identifiable health information, with particular focus on administrative procedures, physical safeguards, technical security services, and technical security mechanisms. Covered Entities such as the Hospital must comply with the security regulations as well.

Penalties for noncompliance with the AS Provisions include civil monetary penalties of up to $100 for any violation not to exceed $25,000 in any calendar year for identical violations. Criminal penalties include up to $50,000 in fines and/or one year imprisonment for wrongful disclosure of individually identifiable health information; $100,000 and/or imprisonment of not more than five years for wrongful disclosure under false pretenses; and up to $250,000 and/or 10 years imprisonment for wrongful disclosure with the intent to sell, transfer, or use individually identifiable health information for commercial advantage, personal gain, or malicious harm.

40

Licensing, Surveys, Investigations and Audits

On a regular basis, health facilities, including those of the Hospital, are subject to numerous legal, regulatory, professional and private licensing, certification and accreditation requirements. These include, but are not limited to, requirements relating to Medicare and Medicaid participation and payment, State licensing agencies, private payors and The Joint Commission. Renewal and continuance of certain of these licenses, certifications and accreditations are based on inspections, surveys, audits, investigations or other reviews, some of which may require or include affirmative action or response by the Hospital. These activities generally are conducted in the normal course of business of health care facilities. Nevertheless, an adverse determination could result in a loss or reduction in the Hospital’s scope of licensure, certification, or accreditation, or could reduce the payment received or require repayment of amounts previously remitted.

The Hospital’s management currently anticipates no difficulty, renewing or continuing currently held licenses or certifications and no materially adverse change in accreditations. Nevertheless, actions in any of these areas could result in the loss of utilization or revenue or the Hospital’s ability to operate all or a portion of its facilities, and, consequently, could adversely affect the Hospital’s ability to make payments of principal, interest and premium, if any, on the Bonds.

Other Federal, State and Local Legislation

General. The Hospital is subject to a wide variety of federal, state and local regulatory actions and legislative and policy changes that could have a significant impact on the Hospital. Federal, state and local legislative bodies have broad discretion in altering or eliminating programs that contribute significantly to the revenues of the Hospital, including the Medicare and Medicaid programs. In addition, such entities may enact legislation that imposes significant new burdens on the operations of the Hospital. There can be no assurance that such legislative bodies will not make legislative policy changes (or direct governmental agencies to promulgate regulatory changes) that have adverse effects upon the ability of the Hospital to generate revenues or upon the utilization of its facilities.

Certificate of Need. The State employs a certificate of need program, whereby health care facilities are required to obtain approval from the State before undertaking certain projects, including constructing or developing a new health care facility, selling, purchasing or leasing part or all of any existing hospital, changing bed capacity in a manner which increases the total number of licensed beds or redistributes beds, and/or offering a new tertiary health service.

Environmental Laws Affecting Health Care Facilities. Hospitals and other healthcare facilities are subject to a wide variety of federal, state and local environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations that address, among other things, hospital operations or facilities and properties owned or operated by hospitals. Among the types of regulatory requirements faced by hospitals are: air and water quality control requirements; waste management requirements; specific regulatory requirements applicable to asbestos, hospital, medical and infectious waste, polychlorinated biphenyls, and radioactive substances; requirements for providing notice to employees and members of the public about hazardous materials handled by or located at the hospital; requirements for worker safety and training employees in the proper handling and management of hazardous materials and waste; and other requirements. In their role as owners and operators of properties or facilities, hospitals may be subject to liability for investigating and remedying any hazardous substances that have come to be located on the property, including any such substances that may have migrated off the property. Typical healthcare operations include, in various combinations, the handling, use, storage, transportation, disposal and discharge of infectious, toxic, radioactive, flammable and other hazardous materials, wastes, pollutants or contaminants. For this reason, healthcare facility operations are particularly susceptible to the practical

41

financial and legal risks associated with compliance with such laws and regulations. Such risks may result in damage to individuals, property or the environment; may interrupt operations or increase their costs or both; may result in legal liability, damages, injunctions or fines, or may trigger investigations, administrative proceedings, penalties or other government agency actions.

Antitrust. Enforcement of antitrust laws against health care providers is becoming more common, and antitrust liability may arise in a wide variety of circumstances including medical staff privilege disputes, third party contracting, physician relations, employee compensation and joint venture, merger, affiliation and acquisition activities. In some respects, the application of federal and state antitrust laws to health care is still evolving, and enforcement activity by federal and state agencies appears to be increasing. At various times, health care providers may be subject to an investigation by a governmental agency charged with the enforcement of the antitrust laws, or may be subject to administrative or judicial action by a federal or state agency or a private party. Violation of the antitrust laws could be subject to criminal or civil enforcement by federal and state agencies, as well as by private litigants. Among the remedies available against persons found liable of violating antitrust prohibitions are treble damages and payment of plaintiff’s attorney fees, both of which may be significant.

From time to time, the Hospital is or will be involved in a variety of activities which could receive scrutiny under the antitrust laws, and it cannot be predicted when or to what extent liability may arise. With respect to payor contracting, the Hospital may, from time to time, be involved in joint contracting activity with other hospitals or providers. The precise degree to which this or similar joint contracting activities may expose the participants to antitrust risk from governmental or private sources is dependent on a myriad of factual matters which may change from time to time.

Hospitals, including the Hospital, regularly have disputes regarding credentialing and peer review, and may be subject to liability in this area. In addition, hospitals occasionally indemnify medical staff members who are involved in such credentialing or peer review activities, and may also be liable with respect to such indemnity. Court decisions have also established private causes of action against hospitals which use their local market power to promote ancillary health care businesses in which they have an interest. Such activities may result in monetary liability for the participating hospitals under certain circumstances where a competitor suffers business damage.

Indigent Care. Tax exempt hospitals often treat large numbers of indigent patients who are unable to pay in full for their medical care. Typically, urban, inner city hospitals may treat significant numbers of indigents. These hospitals may be susceptible to economic and political changes that could increase the number of indigents or their responsibility for caring for this population. General economic conditions that affect the number of employed individuals who have health coverage affects the ability of patients to pay for their care. Similarly, changes in governmental policy, which may result in coverage exclusions under local, state and federal health care programs (including Medicare and Medicaid) may increase the frequency and severity of indigent treatment by such hospitals and other providers. It also is possible that future legislation could require that tax exempt hospitals and other providers maintain minimum levels of indigent care as a condition to federal income tax exemption or exemption from certain state or local taxes.

Federal law and regulations reduced the amount of funding available in the future for DSH payments under the Medicare and Medicaid programs under the theory that the Affordable Care Act will result in more insured patients, and therefore, there will be less of a need to make funds available to hospitals that provide care to the uninsured. However, Management cannot predict whether the anticipated increased revenue to the Hospital resulting from more insured patients will offset the loss of DSH payments.

42

Employment and Labor Issues. As with all large employers, the Hospital bears a wide variety of risks in connection with their employees. These risks include strikes and other related work actions, contract disputes, difficulties in recruitment, discrimination claims, personal tort actions, work related injuries, exposure to hazardous materials, interpersonal torts, risks related to its benefit plans, and other risks that may flow from the relationships between employer and employee or between physicians, patients and employees. Many of these risks are not covered by insurance, and certain of them cannot be anticipated or prevented in advance. Management of the Hospital believes that the Hospital’s retirement plans are in material compliance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, the Code and other applicable laws.

Increasingly, employees of hospitals and other providers are becoming unionized, and many hospitals and other providers have collective bargaining agreements with one or more labor organizations. Employees subject to collective bargaining agreements may include essential nursing and technical personnel, as well as food service, maintenance and other trade personnel. Renegotiation of such agreements upon expiration may result in significant cost increases to the affected members. In addition, employee strikes or other adverse labor actions may have an adverse impact on the Hospital.

Physician, Nursing and Staff Shortages. In recent years, the health care industry has suffered from a scarcity of physician specialists and sub specialists, nursing personnel, respiratory therapists, pharmacists and other trained health care technicians. A significant factor underlying this trend includes a decrease in the number of persons entering such professions. A further factor is that competition for physicians has intensified in recent years, with frequent recruitment efforts by hospitals both locally and nationally to attract physicians away from competing hospitals in order to bolster admissions and profitability attributable to the patients such physicians frequently bring with them or are able to attract. These factors are expected to intensify in the future, aggravating the general shortage and increasing the likelihood of hospital specific shortages. To the extent that the Hospital is unable to maintain adequate staff levels, utilization and, thus, financial performance may be adversely affected.

In order to recruit and retain professional and nursing staff to strengthen clinical services, the Hospital has offered, and in the future may have to offer, competitive salaries to both newly recruited individuals and existing staff. In some years such salaries have increased, and in the future may be required to increase, more than the rate of inflation. Such increases in the future may exceed increases in the Hospital’s rates of payment.

Competition. Competition from other hospitals may adversely affect revenues. In New York, hospital systems continue to consolidate, increasing competitive pressures on acute care hospitals, including the Hospital. Development of health maintenance and other alternative delivery programs and future medical and scientific advances could result in decreased usage of the Hospital’s facilities. The Hospital further faces and will continue to face increased competition from other hospitals, integrated delivery systems, ambulatory care providers, rehabilitation facilities, urgent care centers, drug stores and other retail businesses offering health care services, freestanding independent diagnostic treatment facilities and increasingly sophisticated physician group practices, among others that offer similar health care services as well as expanded preventive medicine treatment.

Insurers may further encourage competition among hospitals and providers on the basis of price, payment terms and quality. Payors have used the threat of patient steerage, restrictive physician contracting, carve outs and network exclusion to drive provider prices lower. This may lead to increased competition among hospitals based on price where insurance companies attempt to steer patients to the hospitals that have the most favorable contracts.

43

Insurance. In recent years, the number of professional and general liability suits and the dollar amounts of damage recoveries have increased in health care nationwide, resulting in substantial increases in malpractice insurance premiums, higher deductibles and generally less coverage. Professional liability and other actions alleging wrongful conduct are often filed against health care providers. Insurance does not provide coverage for judgments for punitive damages.

Litigation also arises from the corporate and business activities of hospitals, from a hospital’s status as an employer or as a result of medical staff or provider network peer review or the denial of medical staff or provider network privileges. As with professional liability, many of these risks are covered by insurance, but some are not. For example, some antitrust claims or business disputes are not covered by insurance or other sources and may, in whole or in part, be a liability of the Hospital if determined or settled adversely.

Many hospitals and health care providers are having difficulty renewing or obtaining all types of commercial insurance, including insurance against malpractice and general liability claims, at reasonable cost. The insurers are mandating lower amounts of coverage, requiring greater deductibles, and charging more in premium.

Cost Increases. In recent years, substantial cutbacks in personnel and other cost-cutting measures have been instituted at hospitals throughout the State. Generally, these cutbacks have been instituted to address the disparity between rising medical costs and State-regulated reimbursement formulas, including those for Medicaid, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and other third-party payors. Rising health care costs resulted from, among other factors, health care costs exceeding inflation, increased minimum wage, staff shortages, increased pharmaceutical and medical device costs, and the highly technical nature of the industry. The Hospital has been affected by the impact of such rising costs, and there can be no assurance that the Hospital would not be similarly affected by the impact of additional unreimbursed costs in the future.

Maintenance of 501(c)(3) Status

The Hospital has been determined to be a tax-exempt organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code. To maintain such status, such entity must conduct its operations in a manner consistent with representations previously made to the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and with current and future IRS regulations and rulings governing tax-exempt healthcare facilities.

Compliance with current and future regulations and rulings of the IRS could adversely affect the ability of the Hospital to charge and collect revenues, finance or refinance indebtedness on a tax-exempt basis or otherwise generate revenues necessary to provide for payment of the Bonds. Although the Hospital has covenanted to maintain its status as a tax-exempt organization, loss of tax-exempt status would likely have a significant adverse effect on the Hospital and its operations.

The tax-exempt status of nonprofit corporations, and the exclusion of income earned by them from taxation, has been the subject of review by various federal, state and local legislative, regulatory and judicial bodies. This review has included proposals to broaden and strengthen existing federal tax law with respect to unrelated business income of nonprofit corporations.

There can be no assurance that future changes in the laws and regulations of the federal, state or local governments will not materially and adversely affect the operations and revenues of the Hospital by requiring it to pay income, real estate or other taxes.

Affiliation, Merger, Acquisition and Divestiture

Significant numbers of affiliations, mergers, acquisitions and divestitures have occurred in the health care industry recently. As part of its on-going planning process, the Hospital has considered and will continue to consider the potential acquisition of operations or properties which may become affiliated with or become part of the Obligated Group in the future, as well as the potential disposition of certain existing Obligated Group operations or properties. As a result, it is possible that the organizations and assets which currently make up the Obligated Group may change from time to time, subject to the provisions in the Master Indenture and other financing documents which apply to merger, sale, disposition or purchase of assets, or with respect to joining or withdrawing from the Obligated Group.

Secondary Market

There can be no assurance that there will be a secondary market for the purchase or sale of the Bonds. From time to time there may be no market for them depending upon prevailing market conditions, including the financial condition or market position of firms who may make the secondary market, the evaluation of the Obligated Group’s capabilities and the financial conditions and results of operations of the Obligated Group.

State Budget

In January 2011, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo issued Executive Order No. 5 creating the Medicaid Redesign Team and setting in motion a process of substantial reform of New York's Medicaid program. The Medicaid Redesign Team, comprised of health care professionals, stakeholders in the industry and legislators, was charged with reducing Medicaid costs and improving patient care. On February 24, 2011, the Medicaid Redesign Team issued a report containing findings and recommendations for cost reductions of over $2.3 billion to the Governor for consideration in the budget negotiation process. The majority of these recommendations (so-called “Phase I” proposals) were included in the 2011-12 Enacted Budget. The 2012-13 Enacted Budget included a number of Phase II proposals designed to continue the reformation of Medicaid within New York. The 2013-14 Enacted Budget, the 2014-15 Enacted Budget, and the 2015-16 Enacted Budget, which was passed by the New York legislature on April 1, 2015, each included additional recommendations, described in more detail below.

The 2011-12 Enacted Budget (implementing Phase I) included a series of changes and cost- containment measures such as programmatic reforms to Medicaid payments and program structures; the elimination of annual statutory inflation factors for hospitals, nursing homes and home and personal care providers; a 2% across-the-board rate reduction and other industry-specific measures; the acceleration of certain payments to take advantage of additional enhanced Federal Medical Assistance Percentage payments; mandatory managed care enrollment of previously exempt population; changes in the benefit package and reimbursement for certain overused benefits; and creation of new integrated care models anticipated to save Medicaid dollars in the long run by improving patient care. The 2012-13 Enacted Budget (implementing Phase II) continued the work of the Medicaid Redesign Team and included provisions calling for further redesign of the basic benefit package; additional initiatives to provide integrated care; and a state takeover of Medicaid administration from local governments. The 2013-14 Enacted Budget includes further expansion of eligibility for and the scope of services provided by managed care plans and acceleration of several cost-saving Medicaid Redesign Team initiatives to offset the cost of creating a Mental Hygiene Stabilization Fund. The 2014-15 Enacted Budget includes further provisions implementing the work of the Medicaid Redesign Team, including integration of physical and behavioral health services through Behavioral Health Organizations and Health and Recovery Plans, an increase in funding available for affordable housing, and an increase in payments to essential community

45

providers. The 2015-16 Enacted Budget creates a new quality pool for hospitals, providing rate add-ons for quality reporting and, in future years, for quality performance.

Each of the Enacted Budgets for 2011-12 through 2015-16 assume a targeted growth rate for Medicaid equal to the ten-year average change in the medical component of the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) and grant DOH and the State Department of Budget authority to hold Medicaid spending to this rate. The ten-year average change in the medical component of CPI fell from 4.0% in 2011-12 to 3.6% in 2015-16 and is projected to drop to 3.4% in 2016-17 and down to 2.8% by 2019-20. If spending is projected to exceed the budget cap, DOH and the State Division of the Budget are authorized to develop and implement a plan of action to bring spending in line with the cap, which could include modifying or reducing reimbursement methods or program benefits. For the 2011-12 budget year, the budget cap required DOH to achieve savings of $2.2 billion, which grew to $3.3 billion in the 2012-13 budget year. For the 2013-14 budget year, the global spending cap was increased to $16.4 billion; for the 2014-15 budget year, it was further increased to $17 billion, and for the 2015-16 budget year to $17.7 billion. The recently Enacted Budget for 2016-17 sets the global spending cap to $18.5 billion. For each of the first four years of the global spending cap, Medicaid spending has remained below the cap – for the 2011-12 budget year by $14 million, for the 2012-13 budget year by $2 million, for the 2013-14 budget year by $39 million, and for the 2014-15 budget year by $8 million. For the 2015-16 budget year through March 2016, Medicaid spending was $3 million under projected levels. Although successful in meeting the budget cap in the first four years, higher-than-average Medicaid enrollment threatens the ability of DOH to continue to meet the ambitious savings goals in future years.

The effect of' the Medicaid redesign process on the Hospital will depend significantly on participation in new models of integrated care delivery, the ability to collaborate with different types of providers and relationships with Medicaid managed care plans, as those plans will play an increasingly larger role over the next several years. There can be no assurance that the anticipated gap-closing savings will be achieved or that the rate of annual growth in DOH State Funds Medicaid spending will be limited. In addition, many of the cost-saving initiatives are dependent upon timely federal approvals, appropriate amendments to the existing systems and processes and a collaborative working relationship with health care industry stakeholders.

Medicaid 1115 Waiver Amendment

As of April 14, 2014, the New York State Section 1115 Partnership Plan was amended to allow the State to reinvest over a five-year period up to $8 billion of the $17.1 billion in federal savings generated by State Medicaid reforms. Up to $6.42 billion of this amount will be applied to the Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (“DSRIP”) Program, which has a goal of reducing avoidable Medicaid hospitalizations by 25% over the next five years. The DSRIP payments are to be made to providers who collaborate in some fashion to achieve this goal and are to be paid based on performance. While the Hospital may participate in the DSRIP Program, the impact of the 1115 Waiver and the potentially significant loss in revenue from decreased hospitalizations upon the projected financial performance of the Obligated Group cannot be determined at this time.

New York State Executive Order 38

On January 18, 2012, Governor Cuomo signed Executive Order No. 38 (the “Executive Order”) limiting spending for administrative costs and executive compensation at state-funded service providers. The Hospital may be subject to the limitations contained in the Executive Order. The Executive Order limits reimbursement with State funds for executive compensation to $199,000 annually per executive and requires that 85% of State-authorized payments be directed to direct care or services, rather than

46

administrative costs. On May 30, 2012, DOH published proposed regulations to implement the Executive Order, effective January 1, 2013.

In April 2014, a New York trial-level court in Nassau County found that the Executive Order violated the New York State Constitution. A trial-level court in Suffolk County in a different case upheld the Executive Order in July 2014. In December 2015, the appellate court with jurisdiction over the trial courts in both of these counties upheld the Executive Order, reversing the decision from the Nassau County court and affirming the decision of the Suffolk County court. A recent decision in the Albany County Supreme Court, also a trial-level court, found the Executive Order to be constitutional, for the most part. The appellate court decision and the decision of the Albany court remain subject to review by higher courts. Accordingly, whether the Executive Order will remain in effect and the way in which the final regulations may impact the Hospital remains unclear. Accordingly, it is impossible at this time to predict what changes in accounting or practices might be required of the Hospital as a result of these regulations.

Enforceability of Remedies

The Bonds are general unsecured obligations of the Obligated Group payable as described in this Offering Memorandum. The practical realization of money from the Obligated Group upon any default will depend upon the exercise of various remedies specified by the Master Indenture. These and other remedies may, in many respects, require judicial actions which are often subject to discretion and delay.

Under existing law, the remedies specified by the Master Indenture may not be readily available or may be limited. A court may decide not to order the performance of the covenants contained in those documents. The legal opinion to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds will be qualified as to the enforceability of the various agreements and other instruments by limitations imposed by State and Federal laws, rulings and decisions affecting remedies and by bankruptcy, reorganization or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

Enforceability of the Master Indenture

Under New York law, a not-for-profit corporation may guarantee the debt of another corporation only if such guaranty is in furtherance of the corporate purposes of such guarantor not-for-profit corporation. In addition, it is possible that the joint and several obligation of a member to make payments due under an Obligation, relating to indebtedness issued for the benefit of another member, may be declared void in an action brought by a third-party creditor pursuant to the New York fraudulent conveyance statutes or may be avoided by a member or a trustee in bankruptcy in the event of the bankruptcy of the member from which payment is requested. An obligation may be voided under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or under the New York fraudulent conveyance statute, if (a) the obligation was incurred without receipt by the obligor of “fair consideration” or “reasonably equivalent value,” and (b) the obligation renders the obligor “insolvent,” as such terms are defined under the applicable statute. Interpretation by the courts of the tests of “insolvency,” “reasonably equivalent value” and “fair consideration” has resulted in a conflicting body of case law. For example, a member’s joint and several obligation under the Master Indenture to make all payments thereunder, including payments in respect of funds used for the benefit of the other members, may be held to be a “transfer” which makes such member “insolvent” in the sense that the total amount due under the Master Indenture could be considered as causing its liabilities to exceed its assets. Also, one of the members may be deemed to have received less than “fair consideration” for such obligation because none or only a portion of the proceeds of the indebtedness is to be used to finance projects occupied or used by such member. While the members may benefit generally from the projects financed from the indebtedness for the other members, the actual cash value of this benefit may be less than the joint and several obligation. The rights under the New York

47

fraudulent conveyance statutes may be asserted for a period of up to six years from the incurring of the obligations under the Master Indenture.

In addition, the assets of any member may be held by a court to be subject to a charitable trust which prohibits payments in respect of obligations incurred by or for the benefit of others if a member has insufficient assets remaining to carry out its own charitable functions or, under certain circumstances, if the obligations paid by such member were issued for purposes inconsistent with or beyond the scope of the charitable purposes for which the member was organized. The enforceability of similar master trust indentures has been challenged in jurisdictions outside of the State. In the absence of clear legal precedent in this area, the extent to which the assets of any member can be used to pay Obligations issued by or on behalf of others cannot be determined at this time.

In addition, there exists common law authority and authority under state statutes for the ability of the state courts to terminate the existence of a not-for-profit corporation or undertake supervision of its affairs on various grounds, including a finding that such corporation has insufficient assets to carry out its stated charitable purposes or has taken some action which renders it unable to carry out such purposes. Such court action may arise on the court’s own motion or pursuant to a petition of the state attorney general or such other persons who have interests different from those of the general public, pursuant to common law and statutory power to enforce charitable trusts and to see to the application of their funds to their intended charitable uses.

An action to enforce a charitable trust and to see to the application of its funds could also arise if an action to enforce the obligation to make payments on an Obligation issued for the benefit of another Member of the Obligated Group would result in the cessation or discontinuation of any material portion of the healthcare or related services previously provided by the Hospital from which payment is requested.

Exercise of Remedies under Master Indenture

“Events of Default” under the Master Indenture include the failure of the Obligated Group to make payments on any Obligation Outstanding under the Master Indenture (such as Obligation No. 2) and the occurrence of an event of default under the Bond Indenture. The Master Indenture provides that upon an “Event of Default” thereunder, the Master Trustee may in its discretion, declare the principal of all (but not less than all) Obligations Outstanding thereunder to be due and payable immediately and may exercise other remedies thereunder. However, the Master Trustee is not required to declare amounts under the Master Indenture to be due and payable immediately except as provided in the Master Indenture. Consequently, upon the occurrence of an “Event of Default” under the Bond Indenture with respect to the Bonds and an acceleration of the maturity of the Bonds, the Master Trustee may not be required to accelerate all Obligations Outstanding under the Master Indenture.

Bankruptcy

The rights and remedies of the holders of the Bonds are subject to various provisions of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). If the Hospital were to file a petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code, the filing would automatically stay the commencement or continuation of any judicial or other proceedings against the Hospital and its property. The Hospital would not be permitted or required to make payments of principal or interest under the Obligations, unless an order of the United States Bankruptcy Court were issued for such purpose. In addition, without an order of the United States Bankruptcy Court the automatic stay may serve to prevent the Bond Trustee from applying amounts on deposit in certain funds and accounts held under the Bond Indenture from being applied in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Indenture, and the application of such amounts to the payment of

48

principal and interest on, the Bonds. Moreover, any motion for an order canceling the automatic stay and permitting such funds and accounts to be applied in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Indenture would be subject to the discretion of the United States Bankruptcy Court, and may be subject to objection and/or comment by other creditors of such Member of the Obligated Group, which could affect the likelihood or timing of obtaining such relief. The automatic stay may also adversely affect the ability of the Master Trustee under to exercise remedies upon default, including the acceleration of all amounts payable by the Hospital, the Master Indenture, and may adversely affect the Master Trustee’s or the Bond Trustee’s ability to take all steps necessary to file a claim under the applicable documents on a timely basis.

The Hospital could file a plan for the adjustment of its debts in a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, which plan could include provisions modifying or altering the rights of creditors generally, or any class of them, whether secured or unsecured. The plan, when confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy Court, would bind all creditors who have notice or knowledge of the plan and could discharge all claims against the Hospital provided for in the plan. No plan may be confirmed unless certain conditions are met, among which are that the plan is in the best interests of creditors, is feasible and has been (except as set forth below) accepted by each class of claims impaired thereunder. Each class of claims has accepted the plan if at least two-thirds in dollar amount and more than one-half in number of the allowed claims of the class that are voted with respect to the plan are cast in its favor. Even if the plan is not so accepted, it may be confirmed if the court finds that the plan is fair and equitable with respect to each class of non-accepting creditors impaired thereunder and does not discriminate unfairly.

In the event of bankruptcy of the Hospital, transfers of property by the bankrupt entity, including the payment of debt on or after the date which is 90 days (or, in some circumstances, one year) prior to the commencement of the case in bankruptcy court may be subject to avoidance or recoupment as preferential transfers. Under certain circumstances a court may have the power to direct the use of revenues meet expenses of the Hospital before paying debt service on the Bonds.

Considerations Relating to Additional Debt

The Bond Indenture and the Master Indenture permit the Hospital to incur additional indebtedness unlimited in amount, including Additional Bonds. Such indebtedness would increase the Obligated Group’s debt service and repayment requirements and may adversely affect debt service coverage on the Bonds.

Cybersecurity

Like many other large organizations, the Hospital relies on digital technologies to conduct its customary operations. In the past several years, a number of entities have sought to gain unauthorized access to digital systems of large organizations for the purposes of misappropriating assets or information or causing operational disruption. These attempts include highly sophisticated efforts to electronically circumvent network security as well as more traditional intelligence gathering and social engineering aimed at obtaining information necessary to gain access. The Hospital maintains a network security system designed to stop “cyber-attacks” by third parties, and minimize its impact on operations; however, no assurances can be given that such network security systems will be completely successful.

Other Risk Factors

In the future, the following factors, among others, may adversely affect the operations of health care providers, including the Hospital, or the market value of the Bonds, to an extent that cannot be determined at this time:

49

• Adoption of legislation that would establish a national or statewide single-payor health program or that would establish national, statewide or otherwise regulated rates.

• Increased unemployment or other economic conditions in the service area of the Obligated Group, which could increase the proportion of patients who are unable to pay fully for the cost of their care.

• Competition in the Obligated Group’s service area could increase from alternative modes of care, including life care, assisted living facilities, and home care.

• Efforts by insurers and governmental agencies to limit the cost of hospital and physician services, to reduce the number of beds and to reduce the utilization of hospital facilities by such means as preventive medicine, improved occupational health and safety and outpatient care, or attempts by third- party payors to control or restrict the operations of certain health care facilities.

• Reduced demand for the services of the Obligated Group that might result from decreases in population or innovations in technology.

• Bankruptcy of an indemnity/commercial insurer, managed care plan or other payor.

• The occurrence of a natural or man-made disaster, including but not limited to acts of terrorists, that could damage the facilities of the Obligated Group, interrupt utility service to the facilities, result in an abnormally high demand for health care services or otherwise impair the operations and the generation of revenues from the Obligated Group’s facilities.

• Adoption of a so-called “flat” Federal income tax, a reduction in the marginal rates of Federal income taxation or replacement of the Federal income tax with another form of taxation, any of which might adversely affect the level of charitable donations to the Obligated Group.

• Increases in cost and limitations in the availability of any insurance, such as fire, and/or business interruption, automobile and comprehensive general liability, that the Obligated Group generally carries.

• Developments affecting the Federal or state tax-exempt status of not-for-profit hospitals.

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following discussion summarizes certain U.S. federal tax income considerations generally applicable to U.S. Holders (as such term is defined below) of the Bonds that acquire their Bonds in the initial offering. The discussion below is based upon laws, regulations, rulings, and decisions in effect and available on the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. Prospective investors should note that no rulings have been or are expected to be sought from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) with respect to any of the U.S. federal income tax consequences discussed below, and no assurance can be given that the IRS will not take contrary positions. Further, the following discussion does not deal with all U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to any given investor, nor does it address the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to categories of investors some of which may be subject to special taxing rules (regardless of whether or not such persons constitute U.S. Holders), such as certain U.S. expatriates, financial institutions, real estate investment trusts, grantor trusts, regulated investment companies, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, dealers or traders in securities or currencies, partnerships (and other pass-through entities), investors that hold their Bonds as part of a hedge, straddle or an integrated or conversion transaction, constructive

50

ownership, constructive sale or other risk reduction transaction, investors whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar. Furthermore, it does not address (i) alternative minimum tax, estate tax or gift tax consequences or tax consequences under any state, local or foreign laws or (ii) the indirect effects on persons who hold equity interests in a U.S. Holder. In addition, this summary generally is limited to investors that purchase their Bonds for cash in connection with this offering for the “issue price” within the meaning of Section 1273 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (i.e., the first price at which a substantial amount of the Bonds are sold to the public for cash) and it does not address the tax consequences to holder who purchase the Bonds after their original issuance. This discussion assumes that the Bonds will be held as capital assets with the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code.

As used herein, “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Bond that is an individual citizen or resident of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof (including the District of Columbia), an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source or a trust where a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons (as defined in the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust (or a trust that has made a valid election under U.S. Treasury Regulations to be treated as a domestic trust). As used herein, “Non-U.S. Holder” generally means any owner (or beneficial owner) of a Bond (other than a partnership or other pass-through entity) that is not a U.S. Holder. If a partnership or other pass-through entity holds Bonds, the tax treatment of a partner (or other owner) will generally depend upon the status of the partner (or other owner) and upon the activities of the partnership. Partners of partnerships (and other owners of pass-through entities) holding Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of an investment in the Bonds (including their status as U.S. Holders or Non-U.S. Holders).

BECAUSE INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES MAY DIFFER, PROSPECTIVE HOLDERS OF THE BONDS ARE STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THEIR PARTICULAR TAX SITUATIONS AND AS TO ANY FEDERAL, FOREIGN, STATE, LOCAL OR OTHER TAX CONSIDERATIONS (INCLUDING ANY POSSIBLE CHANGES IN TAX LAW) AFFECTING THE PURCHASE, HOLDING AND DISPOSITION OF THE BONDS.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders

This section describes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders. Non-U.S. Holders should see the discussion under the heading “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders” for a discussion of certain tax consequences applicable to them.

Interest. Interest on the Bonds (including any amount withheld as backup withholding) generally will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the time such amounts are accrued or received, in accordance with the U.S. Holder’s method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If a Bond is issued at a discount from its stated redemption price at maturity, and the discount is at least equal to the product of one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the stated redemption price at maturity of the Bond multiplied by the weighted average maturity of the Bonds, the Bond will be an “OID Bond.” In general, the excess of the stated redemption price at maturity of an OID Bond over its issue price will constitute original issue discount (“OID”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The stated redemption price at maturity of a Bond is the sum of all scheduled amounts payable on the Bond (other than qualified stated interest). The term “qualified stated interest” generally means stated interest that is unconditionally in cash or property (other than debt instruments of the Issuer), or that is treated as

51

constructively received, at least annually at a single fixed rate or, under certain conditions, at a variable rate. U.S. Holders of OID Bonds will be required to include OID in income for U.S. federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in accordance with a constant yield method based on the compounding of interest (which may be before the receipt of cash payments attributable to such income). Under this method, U.S. Holders generally will be required to include in income increasingly greater amounts of OID in successive accrual periods.

If a Bond is issued at a price greater than the principal amount payable at maturity, a U.S. Holder generally will be considered to have purchased the Bond at a premium, and generally may elect to amortize the premium as an offset to interest income otherwise required to be included in respect of the Bond during a taxable year, using a constant-yield method, over the remaining term of the Bond. If a U.S. Holder makes the election to amortize the premium, it generally will apply to all debt instruments held by such U.S. Holder at the time of the election, as well as any debt instruments that are subsequently acquired by such U.S. Holder. In addition, a U.S. Holder may not revoke the election without the consent of the IRS. If such U.S. Holder elects to amortize the premium, such U.S. Holder will be required to reduce its tax basis in the Bond by the amount of the premium amortized during the holding period of the U.S. Holder. If such U.S. Holder does not elect to amortize premium, the amount of premium will be included in its tax basis in the Bond. Therefore, if a U.S. Holder does not elect to amortize premium and holds the Bond to maturity, the premium will decrease the amount of gain or increase the amount of loss otherwise recognized on the disposition of such Bond. Special rules for determining the amount of amortizable bond premium attributable to a debt instrument may be applicable of the debt instrument may be optionally redeemed. These rules are complex and prospective purchasers are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of the amortizable bond premium rules to their particular situation.

Disposition of the Bonds. Unless a non-recognition provision of the Code applies, the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement (including pursuant to an offer by the Hospital) or other disposition of a Bond, will be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In such event, in general, a U.S. Holder of Bonds will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of property received (except to the extent attributable to accrued but unpaid interest on the Bonds which will be taxed in the manner described above under “Interest”) and (ii) the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Bonds. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in a Bond generally will equal the purchase price paid by the U.S. Holder increased by any original issue discount included in income and decreased by the amount of payments, other than qualified stated interest payments, received and amortizable bond premium taken with respect to the Bond. Any such gain or loss generally will generally be long-term capital gain or loss, provided the Bond has been held for more than a year at the time of disposition. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Medicare Tax. An additional 3.8% tax will be imposed on the net investment income (which includes interest, original issue discount and gains from a disposition of a Bond) of certain individuals, trust and estates. Prospective investors in the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible applicability of this tax to an investment in the Bonds.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Payments of interest on the Bonds generally will be subject to U.S. information reporting. In addition, under Section 3406 of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, a non-corporate U.S. Holder of the Bonds may be subject to backup withholding at the current rate of 28% (subject to future adjustment) with respect to “reportable payments,” which include interest paid on the Bonds and the gross proceeds of a sale, exchange, redemption or retirement of the Bonds. The applicable payor will be required to deduct and withhold the prescribed amounts if (i) the payee fails to furnish a U.S. taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) to the payor in the manner required, (ii) the IRS notifies the payor that the TIN furnished by the payee is incorrect, (iii) there has been a

52

“notified payee underreporting” described in section 3406(c) of the Code or (iv) there has been a failure of the payee to certify under penalty of perjury that the payee is not subject to withholding under section 3406(a)(1)(C) of the Code. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded or credited against the U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Potential investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability of backup withholding in their particular situation, the availability of an exception from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption, if available.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders

This section describes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences to Non-U.S. Holders.

Interest. If, under the Code, interest on the Bonds is “effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States” by a Non-U.S. Holder, such interest will be subject to U.S. federal income tax in a similar manner as if the Bonds were held by a U.S. Holder, as described above, and in the case of Non-U.S. Holders that are corporations may be subject to U.S. branch profits tax at a rate of up to 30%, unless an applicable tax treaty provides otherwise. Such Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal withholding taxes, however, if it provides a properly executed From W-8ECI (subject to the discussion below concerning FATCA withholding).

Interest on the Bonds held by other Non-U.S. Holders may be subject to withholding taxes of up to 30% of each payment made to the Non-U.S. Holders unless the “portfolio interest” exemption applies (subject to the discussion below concerning FATCA withholding). In general, interest paid on the Bonds to a Non-U.S. Holder will qualify for the portfolio interest exemption, and thus will not be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax, if (i) such Non-U.S. Holder is not a “controlled foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 957 of the Code) related, directly or indirectly, to the Hospital; (ii) the Non-U.S. Holder is not actually or constructively a “10-percent shareholder” under Section 871(h) of the Code; (iii) the Non-U.S. Holder is not a bank receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code; (iv) the interest is not effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States under Section 871(b) or Section 882 of the Code; and (v) either (a) the Non-U.S. Holder who is the beneficial owner of the obligation provides a statement signed by such person under penalties of perjury, on IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form), certifying that such owner is not a U.S. Holder and providing such owner’s name and address or (b) a securities clearing organization, bank or other financial institution that holds the Bonds on behalf of such Non-U.S. Holder in the ordinary course of its trade or business certifies under penalties of perjury that such an IRS Form W-8BEN (or a successor form) has been received from the beneficial owner and furnishes a copy thereof. A certificate (on Form W-8BEN (or successor form)) is effective only with respect to payments or interest made to the certifying Non-U.S. Holder after issuance of the certificate in the calendar year of its issuance and the two immediately succeeding calendar years. Alternative methods may be applicable for satisfying the certification requirement described above. Foreign trusts and their beneficiaries are subject to special rules, and such persons should consult their own tax advisors regarding the certification requirements.

If a Non-U.S. Holder does not claim, or does not qualify for, the benefit of the portfolio interest exemption, the Non-U.S.-Holder may be subject to a 30% withholding tax on interest payments on the Bonds. However, the Non-U.S. Holder may be able to claim the benefit of reduced withholding tax rate under an applicable income tax treaty between the Non-U.S. Holder’s country of residence and the U.S. Non-U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding their eligibility for treaty benefits. The required information for claiming treaty benefits is generally submitted on Form W-8BEN (or successor form). In addition, a Non-U.S. Holder may under certain circumstances be required to obtain a U.S. taxpayer identification number.

53

Disposition of Bonds. Subject to the discussion below concerning FATCA withholding, a Non- U.S. Holder will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding tax on gain recognized on a sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a Bond. (Such gain does not include proceeds attributable to accrued but unpaid interest on the Bonds, which will be treated as interest.) A Non-U.S. Holder may, however, be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such gain if: (i) the Non-U.S. Holder is a nonresident alien individual who was present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition and certain other conditions are met under Section 871(a)(2) of the Code; or (ii) the gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, as provided by applicable U.S. tax rules (in which case the U.S. branch profits tax may also apply), unless an applicable treaty provides otherwise.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Certain payors must report annually to the IRS and to each Non-U.S. Holder any interest that is subject to U.S. withholding taxes or that is exempt from U.S. withholding taxes pursuant to an income tax treaty or certain provisions of the Code. Copies of these information returns may also be made available under the provisions of a specific tax treaty or agreement with the tax authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides.

A Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to backup withholding with respect to payments of interest on the Bonds as long as the Non-U.S. Holder (i) has furnished to the applicable payor, a valid IRS Form W-8BEN (or successor form) certifying, under penalties of perjury, its status as a non-U.S. person, (ii) has furnished to the applicable payor other documentation upon which it may rely to treat the payments as made to as non-U.S. person in accordance with Treasury regulations, or (iii) otherwise establishes an exemption. A Non-U.S. Holder may be subject to information reporting and/or backup withholding on a sale of the Bonds, through the United States office of a broker and may be subject to information reporting (but generally not backup withholding) on a sale of the Bonds through a foreign office of a broker that has certain connections to the United States, unless the Non-U.S. Holder provides the certification described above or otherwise establishes an exemption. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding their qualification for exemption from backup withholding and the procedures for obtaining such an exemption.

Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded or credited against the Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

FATCA Withholding. Under legislation commonly referred to as the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act” (“FATCA”), a withholding tax of 30% is generally applied to payments of (i) interest on a debt obligation of a U.S. issuer on or after July 1, 2014, and (ii) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of such a debt obligation on or after January 1, 2019, in each case made to (a) a foreign financial institution (as beneficial owner or as an intermediary), unless such institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. government (or is required by applicable local law) to collect and provide to the United States or other relevant tax authorities certain information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution or unless the institution is otherwise exempt from FATCA; or (b) a foreign entity that is not a financial institution (as a beneficial owner or as an intermediary), unless such entity provides the withholding agent with a certification that it does not have any substantial U.S. owners or identifying it substantial U.S. owners, which generally includes any specified U.S. person that directly or indirectly owns more than a specified percentage of such entity, or unless such entity is otherwise exempt from FATCA. Investors are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the implications of this legislation and the applicable regulations on their investment in a Bond.

THE FOREGOING SUMMARY IS INCLUDED HEREIN FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND DOES NOT DISCUSS ALL ASPECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION THAT

54

MAY BE RELEVANT TO A PARTICULAR HOLDER OF BONDS IN LIGHT OF THE HOLDER’S PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES AND INCOME TAX SITUATION. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM FROM THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF BONDS, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and the Code generally prohibit certain transactions between employee benefit plans under ERISA or tax-qualified retirement plans under the Code, (collectively, the “Plans”) and persons who, with respect to a Plan, are fiduciaries or other “parties in interest” within the meaning of ERISA or “disqualified persons” within the meaning of the Code. In addition, each fiduciary of a Plan (a “Plan Fiduciary”) must give appropriate consideration to the facts and circumstances that are relevant to an investment in the Bonds, including the roles that such an investment in the Bonds would play in the Plan’s overall investment portfolio. Each Plan Fiduciary, before deciding to invest in the Bonds, must be satisfied that such investment in the Bonds is a prudent investment for the Plan, that the investments of the Plan, including the investment in the Bonds, are diversified so as to minimize the risk of large losses and that an investment in the Bonds complies with the documents of the Plan and related trust, to the extent such documents are consistent with ERISA. All Plan Fiduciaries, in consultation with their advisers, should carefully consider the impact of ERISA and the Code on an investment in any Series 2016 Bond, including the applicability to such investment of the fiduciary responsibility and prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the Code or similar laws.

FINANCIAL ADVISOR

The Hospital has retained Swap Financial Group, LLC, as financial advisor to the Hospital (the “Financial Advisor”) in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. The Financial Advisor has not been engaged, nor has it undertaken, to audit, authenticate, or otherwise verify the information set forth in this Offering Memorandum, or any other related information available to the Hospital, with respect to accuracy or completeness of disclosure of such information. The Financial Advisor has reviewed this Offering Memorandum but makes no guaranty, warranty or other representation respecting accuracy and completeness of the information contained in this Offering Memorandum.

UNDERWRITING

The Bonds are being purchased by Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the “Underwriter”). The Underwriter has agreed to purchase the Bonds at an aggregate purchase price of $______(reflecting an Underwriter’s discount of $______). The purchase contract for the Bonds provides that the Underwriter will purchase all of the Bonds if any are purchased. The Underwriter’s obligation to make such purchase is subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the purchase contract, the approval of certain legal matters by counsel and certain other conditions. The initial public offering price of the Bonds may be changed by the Underwriter.

The Underwriter may offer and sell the Bonds to certain dealers and others at a price lower than the initial offering price; provided, however, that a substantial amount (as such term is used in United States Treasury Regulation § 1.1273-2(a)) of the Bonds shall be sold at the initial offering price. The offering price of Bonds may be changed from time to time by the Underwriter.

The Underwriter and its affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include sales and trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment

55

management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and non-financial activities and services.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Underwriter and its affiliates, officers, directors and employees may purchase, sell or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps and other financial instruments for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and trading activities may involve or relate to assets, securities and/or instruments of the issuer (directly, as collateral securing other obligations or otherwise) and/or persons and entities with relationships with the issuer. The Underwriter and its affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such assets, securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they should acquire, long and/or short positions in such assets, securities and instruments of the Hospital.

CONTINUING DISCLOSURE

Consistent with the continuing disclosure requirements of SEC Rule 15c2-12 relating to its tax- exempt publicly traded bonds, the Hospital is obligated to file an annual financial report with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the “MSRB”) pursuant to continuing disclosure agreements relating to such tax-exempt debt offerings. These annual financial reports are currently available from the MSRB. Certain information required by the continuing disclosure agreements was omitted in past years from such annual financial reports. However, the Hospital has put in place new internal controls to make sure that all future filings are made in a complete and timely manner. In addition, the Hospital is obligated to file unaudited financial statements at the end of each fiscal quarter and the Hospital is current with all such required filings. Pursuant to the Bond Indenture, the Hospital has also agreed to file the information described in the following paragraphs at the times and in the manner as described below. Copies of the reports and statements required to be filed with the Bond Trustee pursuant to this Section shall be filed with the Bond Trustee in sufficient quantity to permit the Bond Trustee to mail a copy to each Bondholder who requests it, and, if not made available to the Bond Trustee, on the Hospital’s website or a national repository.

Within 150 days after the end of each fiscal reporting period, the Hospital shall post on its website or a national repository or furnish to the Bond Trustee and to Bondholders requesting the same, (a) an update of the following information contained in APPENDIX A to the Offering Memorandum relating to the Hospital under the headings “Utilization”, “Sources of Patient Service Revenue”, “Summary Statements of Operations and of Financial Position”, “Liquidity”, “Long-Term Debt Service Coverage”, “Capitalization” and “Investments”, (b) copies of the Hospital’s audited financial statements, (c) an update of the following information contained in Appendix B-1 to the Offering Memorandum relating to Lawrence Hospital Center under the headings “Utilization” and “Summary Statements of Operations”, (d) an update of the following information contained in Appendix B-2 to the Offering Memorandum relating to Hudson Valley Hospital Center under the “Utilization” and “Summary Statements of Operations” and (e) an update of the following information contained in Appendix B-3 to the Offering Memorandum relating to NewYork-Presbyterian/Queens under the headings “Utilization” and “Summary Statements of Operations”. Such audited financial statements shall be audited by an independent auditor and prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles on a consistent basis, except that such audited financial statements may contain such changes as are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and shall include such statements and narrative explanations as reasonably necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, statement of activity and changes in net assets and cash flows of such fiscal reporting period.

56

Within 60 days after the end of each of the Hospital’s first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year, the Hospital shall post on its website or furnish to the Bond Trustee and to Bondholders requesting the same, copies of its unaudited financial statements, consisting of the balance sheet as of the end of such quarter, the statement of operations, changes in the net assets and cash flows, and shall include such statements and narrative explanations as reasonably necessary for a fair presentation of such financial and operating data.

The failure of the Hospital to comply with the covenants under this heading “Continuing Disclosure” shall not be considered an event of default under the Bond Indenture, the Master Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture. As the sole and exclusive remedy for the Hospital’s failure to comply with these covenants the Bond Trustee may (and, at the request of the holders of at least 51% of the aggregate principal amount in the Outstanding Bonds, shall) or any Bondholder or owner of a beneficial interest in a Bond or Bonds may take such actions to seek specific performance by court order and to cause the Hospital to comply with its obligations under this section and no person, including any Holder or any Beneficial Owner of the Bonds, may recover monetary damages.

The foregoing undertakings are intended to set forth a general description of the type of financial information and operating data that will be provided; the descriptions are not intended to state more than general categories of financial information and operating data; and where an undertaking calls for information that no longer can be generated because the operations to which it related have been materially changed or discontinued, a statement to that effect will be provided. Any agreement regarding continuing disclosure, however, may be amended or modified under certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of the Series 2016 Bonds. Any such agreement when executed by the parties thereto will be on file at the principal office of the Hospital.

APPROVAL OF LEGALITY

Legal matters incident to validity of the Bonds and certain other matters are subject to the approval of the Hospital’s counsel, Dennett Law Offices, P.C., Great Neck, New York and Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP, New York, New York. In addition, certain other legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriter by its counsel, Winston & Strawn LLP, New York, New York.

ABSENCE OF MATERIAL LITIGATION

There is no controversy or litigation of any nature, to the knowledge of its officers, now pending or threatened against the Hospital restraining or enjoining the issuance, sale, execution or delivery of the Bonds, or in any way contesting or affecting the validity of the Bonds. As with most health care organizations, the Hospital is subject to legal actions which, in whole or in part, are not or may not be covered by insurance or self-insurance because of the type of action (such as employee, contract or competition law claims) or remedies requested (such as punitive damages), because of a reservation of rights by an insurance carrier or self-insurance program, or because the action has not proceeded to a stage which permits full evaluation. Since these actions either claim punitive damages which could become a liability of the Hospital and/or state or threaten causes of action which may not be covered by insurance or self-insurance, insurers for the Hospital and the self-insurance program have not provided assurance of coverage, and to the extent any cases have not been served, counsel has not been retained to evaluate them. For a discussion of certain litigation affecting the Hospital, see APPENDIX A – “THE HOSPITAL– Litigation” attached hereto.

57

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 included in Appendix C-1 of this Offering Memorandum, have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors, as stated in their reports appearing therein. The information contained in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the for the three (3) month period ended March 31, 2016, included in Appendix C-2 of this Offering Memorandum, is derived from unaudited internal records and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and reports included in Appendix C-1 hereto.

RATINGS

Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Fitch Ratings Inc. (“Fitch”), assigned a long- term rating of “___” and “___”, respectively, to the Series 2016 Bonds. Any explanation of the significance of such ratings may only be obtained from Moody’s and Fitch. Generally, rating agencies base their ratings on information and materials furnished and on investigation, studies, and assumptions of their own. The above ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell or own the Bonds and there is no assurance that the ratings mentioned above will remain in effect for any given period of time or that a rating might not be lowered or withdrawn entirely, if in the judgment of the rating agency maintaining the rating, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward change in or withdrawal of a rating might have an adverse effect on the market price or marketability of the Bonds.

Other credit rating agencies that the Hospital has not engaged to rate the bonds may nevertheless issue unsolicited credit ratings on the Series 2016 Bonds. If any such unsolicited ratings are issued, no assurance can be given that they will not be different from those ratings assigned by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") or Fitch, Inc. ("Fitch"). The issuance of unsolicited ratings on the Series 2016 Bonds that is different from the ratings assigned by Moody's or Fitch may impact the value of the Series 2016 Bonds.

As part of the process of obtaining ratings for the Series 2016 Bonds, the Hospital had initial discussions with and submitted certain materials to Moody's, Fitch and Standard & Poor's. The Hospital selected Moody's and Fitch to rate the Series 2016 Bonds and not S&P. Had the Hospital selected S&P to rate the Series 2016 Bonds, the Hospital cannot give any assurance as to the rating that S&P would have ultimately assigned to the Series 2016 Bonds.

MISCELLANEOUS

All quotations from and summaries and explanations of the Bond Indenture, the Master Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture and of statutes and other documents contained herein do not purport to be complete, and reference is made to said documents and statutes for full and complete statements of their provisions. Copies of the Bond Indenture, the Master Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture are on file at the offices of the Bond Trustee.

Any statements in this Offering Memorandum involving matters of opinion are intended as such and not as representations of fact. This Offering Memorandum is not to be construed as a contract or agreement between the Hospital and Holders of any of the Bonds.

1. In connection with the issuance by the Hospital of its Series 2015 Bonds in February 2015, the Hospital formed an Obligated Group under and as defined in its Master Trust Indenture. Currently, the Hospital is the sole member of the Obligated Group. For a discussion of the Master Trust Indenture, the Obligated Group and the debt covered thereby, see “HEALTH CARE SYSTEM CORPORATE STRUCTURE – The Master Trust Indenture and the Obligated Group” and “FINANCIAL AND OPERATING INFORMATION – Outstanding Long-term Indebtedness” in this Appendix A. 2. For a discussion of the Supporting Corporations, see “HEALTH CARE SYSTEM STRUCTURE – The Health Care System, Regional Hospital Network and the Supporting Corporations” below. 3. The Hospital subsidiaries are those entities under the control of the Hospital or one of its direct subsidiaries. These entities are part of the Hospital’s consolidated group that is reported in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Entities included in the Hospital’s consolidated financial statements, other than the Hospital and any subsidiaries of the Hospital that may in the future join the Obligated Group, are not legally obligated on the Hospital’s indebtedness. 4. These corporations coordinate membership in the Health Care System (as hereinafter defined). For additional details, see “HEALTH CARE SYSTEM STRUCTURE – The Health Care System, Regional Hospital Network and the Supporting Corporations” below” below. 5. For a discussion of the Corporate Members, see “HEALTH CARE SYSTEM STRUCTURE – The Health Care System, Regional Hospital Network and the Supporting Corporations” below. 6. It is expected that by August 31, 2016 NYP Community Programs, Inc. will submit a certificate of need application to the New York State Department of Health seeking approval to be an “active parent” of The New York Methodist Hospital and will seek implementation of “active parent” status by the end of 2016. See “HEALTH CARE SYSTEM STRUCTURE – The Health Care System, Regional Hospital Network and the Supporting Corporations – The Regional Hospitals under the NYP Active Parent Corporations” below.

Note: The Hospital is the only entity that is obligated with respect to repayment of its indebtedness, including the Series 2015 Bonds and the Series 2016 Bonds offered by this Offering Memorandum. None of the assets or revenue of any of the other entities described above is committed to the repayment of the Hospital’s indebtedness.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this Appendix A and elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum that relate to the Hospital are forward-looking statements that are based on the beliefs of, and assumptions made by, the management of the Hospital. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results or performance of the Hospital to be materially different from any expected future results or performance. Such factors include but are not limited to, items discussed in “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS” in the front part of this Offering Memorandum. * * * * *

PREVIOUSLY REPORTED INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO PRIOR PERIODS

Certain financial information and utilization data set forth herein with respect to past periods may differ from what the Hospital has previously reported in earlier disclosure documents. This is generally due to changes in accounting standards and related guidance, or the application of relevant accounting standards, that require a reclassification or restatement of certain items and to adjustments in utilization data that occur in the normal course of patient care or as services are billed and coded.

* * * * *

The Information contained in this Appendix A and elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum may include statistics and other data relating to the healthcare industry in the United States that have been derived from third party sources.

INTRODUCTION

General

The New York and Presbyterian Hospital (the “Hospital”), a New York not-for-profit corporation created as a result of the January 1998 merger of The Society of The New York Hospital (“New York Hospital”) and The Presbyterian Hospital in the City of New York (“Presbyterian Hospital”), operates at six campuses in Manhattan and Westchester County, New York. The Hospital serves as the academic and quaternary care hub of a network of health care providers (the “Health Care System”), which, as of June 1, 2016, included 10 acute care hospitals, 2 long-term care facilities, 2 ambulatory sites, and 2 specialty institutions, located in New York and Connecticut. Over the years the Hospital has developed its relationships with the other members of the Health Care System as part of its strategic goal of providing

A-1 high quality, integrated care throughout the tri-state New York metropolitan area (the “Metropolitan Area”). One of the country’s largest academic medical centers, the Hospital ranked #7 in the 2015-16 U.S. News & World Report1 annual ranking of the best hospitals in the United States, and was the top- ranked hospital in the Metropolitan Area. The Hospital has developed highly specific, patient-centered models of care to treat its diverse patient populations. The Hospital is the primary clinical teaching facility for two of the country’s leading medical colleges: The Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College of Cornell University (“Weill Cornell Medical School”) and the Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons (“Columbia University Medical School” and, together with Weill Cornell Medical School, the “Medical Schools”). All members of the Attending Medical Staff of the Hospital hold faculty appointments at one of the Medical Schools.

New York Presbyterian Foundation, Inc. (“NYPFI”) is an affiliate that is linked to the Hospital through the Hospital’s Board of Trustees. The Hospital also has several affiliated entities that support the Hospital through fundraising and real estate holdings. These affiliated entities (“Supporting Corporations”) include: (i) New York-Presbyterian Fund, Inc. (“Fund, Inc.”), which solicits, receives, invests and administers philanthropic funds for the Hospital and other charitable organizations approved by the board of directors of Fund, Inc. and (ii) three real estate holding companies: Royal Charter Properties, Inc., Royal Charter Properties – East, Inc., and Royal Charter Properties – Westchester, Inc. (collectively, the “RCP Corporations”). Another affiliated entity, the New York-Presbyterian Healthcare System, Inc. (“NYPHSI”), serves as the corporate link to a number of the hospitals and other entities that are referred to as “Corporate Members” (as further defined below) of the Regional Hospital Network. NYP Community Programs, Inc. (“Community Programs”), a subsidiary of the Hospital, serves as the parent entity of two of the Hospital’s indirect hospital subsidiaries, NYP/Queens and NYP/Hudson Valley, and NYP Community Services, Inc. (“Community Services” and together with Community Programs, the “NYP Active Parent Corporations”), also a subsidiary of the Hospital, serves as the parent entity of a third indirect hospital subsidiary, NYP/Lawrence. These indirect hospital subsidiaries are referred to as the “Regional Hospitals.” Plans are underway for Community Programs to become the parent entity of NYP/Lawrence (as hereinafter defined), replacing Community Services. Subject to regulatory and other approvals, this is expected to occur by the end of 2016.

The Obligated Group

In February 2015, the Hospital entered into a Master Trust Indenture, dated as of January 1, 2015 (the “Master Trust Indenture”), between the Hospital and TD Bank, N.A., as master trustee (the “Master Trustee”), and formed an Obligated Group under and as defined in the Master Trust Indenture. The Hospital was, and continues to be, the sole Member of the Obligated Group under the Master Trust Indenture. For additional information, see “THE OBLIGATED GROUP AND THE MASTER TRUST INDENTURE” below.

Hospital Campuses

The Hospital owns and operates one of the oldest hospitals in the nation. It has a history of over 200 years of providing medical care in the Metropolitan Area, with five of the Hospital’s six campuses having roots dating back more than 120 years.

1 U.S. News & World Report reviews data for nearly 5,000 hospitals and results from surveys of more than 140,000 physicians to determine its rankings of the best centers in 16 adult specialties. Death rates, patient safety and hospital reputation are among the factors considered. Only 137 hospitals were nationally ranked in a specialty for the 2015-16 rankings. The Honor Roll features 15 hospitals that scored near the top in a least six specialties.

A-2

Weill Cornell Campus

Inspired by the commencement address delivered in 1769 to the first medical doctors to graduate from King’s College (now Columbia University) by Dr. Samuel Bard, George Washington’s personal physician, city leaders pledged funds for the establishment of a public hospital. This led to the creation of New York Hospital by Royal Charter granted by King George III on June 13, 1771. The first hospital facility was opened in 1791 in lower Manhattan. After relocating several times, New York Hospital began operations at its current location in the Upper East Side of Manhattan (the “Weill Cornell Campus”) in 1932.

The Weill Cornell Campus now occupies the city blocks bounded by East 68th Street to East 71st Street and from York Avenue to the East River, together with various buildings in the area. Portions of the buildings that comprise the Weil Cornell Campus are owned and/or occupied by Weill Cornell Medical School. The Hospital has 862 certified inpatient beds at its facilities on the Weill Cornell Campus. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Weill Cornell Medical School.

Westchester Division

In 1821, New York Hospital opened a hospital for the mentally ill in the Morningside Heights section of Manhattan on land now occupied by Columbia University. This facility moved to White Plains, New York in the 1890s, and is now the Hospital’s Westchester Division. The Westchester Division, which has 270 certified beds, provides inpatient and outpatient psychiatric and behavioral health services. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Weill Cornell Medical School.

Lower Manhattan Hospital

The Hospital’s newest campus, NewYork-Presbyterian Lower Manhattan Hospital (“Lower Manhattan Hospital”), traces its history to 1853, when Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell, America’s first licensed female physician, opened a free dispensary to provide outpatient care for poor women and children. This dispensary became the New York Infirmary for Indigent Women and Children, which opened in 1857. After several relocations and name changes, Lower Manhattan Hospital is now located at 170 William Street, Manhattan, and is the only acute care facility in Manhattan below 14th Street. It has 180 certified beds. Lower Manhattan Hospital became part of the Hospital in July 2013 when New York Downtown Hospital, then a separate member of the Health Care System, was merged into the Hospital. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Weill Cornell Medical School.

Columbia Campus

Presbyterian Hospital was founded in 1868 by James Lenox, a New York philanthropist, and began operations in 1872 at its initial site on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Presbyterian Hospital moved to its present location in the Washington Heights section of Manhattan (the “Columbia Campus”) in 1928.

The Columbia Campus now occupies the city blocks bounded by West 165th Street to West 168th Street and from Broadway to Riverside Drive, together with various other buildings in the area. Portions of the buildings that comprise the Columbia Campus are owned and/or occupied by Columbia University Medical School. The Hospital has 738 certified beds at its facilities on this campus. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Columbia University Medical School.

A-3

Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital In the late 1880s, a group of women led by Sara and Julie McNutt, sisters and physicians, established Babies Hospital in a brownstone on 55th Street and Lexington Avenue in Manhattan. That building was replaced in 1902 by an eight-story, 80-bed modern hospital. In 1929, Babies Hospital moved uptown to become part of Presbyterian Hospital, and with the opening of a new facility in November 2003 was renamed The Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital of NewYork-Presbyterian (“MS- CHONY”). MS-CHONY is a pediatric acute care and ancillary services facility with 269 certified beds, and is located on a site contiguous with the Columbia Campus. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Columbia University Medical School.

Allen Hospital The Allen Hospital, which has 196 certified beds and is located at Broadway and the Harlem River in the Inwood section of Manhattan, opened in 1988 under the sponsorship of Presbyterian Hospital and offers acute care to residents of its service area in a community-based setting. The attending physicians at this campus hold faculty appointments at the Columbia University Medical School.

See the map below under the caption “Location of Campuses of the Hospital and the Health Care Entities.”

HEALTH CARE SYSTEM STRUCTURE

The Hospital

The Hospital is governed by its Board of Trustees, the members of which (other than ex-officio members) are selected from among the individuals who are members of NYPFI. See “GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT – The Board of Trustees” below. NYPFI is a New York not-for-profit corporation that also has a corporate link to certain other members of the Health Care System.

In addition to the Hospital, the members of the Health Care System are (i) the Regional Hospitals and (ii) health care organizations having either a corporate link to the Hospital through NYPFI (“Corporate Members”) or a contractual relationship through agreements with NYPHSI (“Affiliate Members”). The Regional Hospitals, the Corporate Members and the Affiliate Members are collectively referred to as the “Regional Hospital Network.” Each of the Supporting Corporations is a corporate affiliate of NYPFI. Each of the members of the Health Care System (including the Hospital and each member of the Regional Hospital Network) and each of the Supporting Corporations is a separate non- profit corporation and is responsible for its own operations, assets and obligations.

The Regional Hospitals under the NYP Active Parent Corporations

In July 2014, Lawrence Hospital Center (d/b/a NewYork-Presbyterian/Lawrence Hospital) (“NYP/Lawrence”) in Bronxville, Westchester County, New York, became the Hospital’s first indirect hospital subsidiary. Hudson Valley Hospital Center (d/b/a NewYork-Presbyterian/Hudson Valley Hospital)(“NYP/Hudson Valley”), also in Westchester, became the second indirect hospital subsidiary

A-5 effective in January 2015, and NewYork-Presbyterian/Queens (“NYP/Queens”) became the third in July 2015. For additional information regarding these three hospital subsidiaries, see Appendix B to this Offering Memorandum. With respect to each of these three hospitals, a direct subsidiary of the Hospital (either Community Programs or Community Services) serves as an “active parent” under Article 28 of New York State Public Health Law (an “Active Parent”). Under New York law, an Active Parent has, with respect to its subsidiary hospital, the power, among others, to appoint or dismiss management and medical staff, and approve operating and capital budgets, strategic plans, operating policies and changes to organizational documents.

It is expected that by August 31, 2016 Community Programs will submit a certificate of need application to the New York State Department of Health seeking approval to be an Active Parent of The New York Methodist Hospital and will seek to implement “active parent” status by the end of 2016. It is expected that the application will be ready for submission in the next fiscal quarter. Plans are also underway for Community Programs to replace Community Services as NYP/Lawrence’s Active Parent. Subject to regulatory and other approvals, this is expected to occur by the end of 2016.

Notwithstanding their status as indirect subsidiaries of the Hospital, NYP/Lawrence, NYP/Hudson Valley and NYP/Queens will not have any obligation with respect to the 2015 Bonds, the 2016 Bonds, Obligation No. 1 or Obligation No. 2, nor will any future subsidiary of the Hospital have any such obligation, except to the extent any such entity becomes a Member of the Obligated Group as described below.

Upon the issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds, the Hospital will be the sole member of the Obligated Group and therefore the only entity obligated to pay the Series 2016 Bonds. None of NYPFI, NYPHSI, the Supporting Corporations, the Regional Hospitals or the other members of the Regional Hospital Network will be obligated with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds when they are issued.

THE OBLIGATED GROUP AND THE MASTER TRUST INDENTURE

In February 2015, the Hospital issued its $750,000,000 Taxable Bonds, Series 2015 (the “Series 2015 Bonds”). In connection with the issuance of the Series 2015 Bonds, the Hospital entered into a Master Trust Indenture, dated as of January 1, 2015 (the “Master Trust Indenture”), between the Hospital and TD Bank, N.A., as master trustee (the “Master Trustee”), and formed an Obligated Group under and as defined in the Master Trust Indenture. The Hospital was, and continues to be, the sole Member of the Obligated Group under the Master Trust Indenture. To evidence and secure the payment obligations of the Hospital with respect to the Series 2015 Bonds, the Hospital issued its Obligation No. 1, dated the date of issuance of the Series 2015 Bonds, under and pursuant to the Master Trust Indenture and the Supplemental Master Indenture for Obligation No. 1, dated as of January 1, 2015, between the Hospital and the Master Trustee.

To evidence and secure the obligation of the Hospital with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds, the Hospital will issue its Obligation No. 2, to be dated the date of the issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds, under and pursuant to the Master Trust Indenture and a Supplemental Master Indenture for Obligation No. 2, to be dated as of June 1, 2016 (“Supplemental Indenture No. 2”), between the Hospital and the Master Trustee. See “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS – Master Indenture and Obligation No. 2” in the main part of this Offering Memorandum. Obligation No. 2 will be a payment obligation of the Hospital. To the extent one or more other entities become Members of the Obligated Group (as defined in the Master Trust Indenture), such other Members of the Obligated Group will become jointly and severally liable with the Hospital for payment of Obligation No. 1 and Obligation No. 2, subject to the right of a Member to withdraw from the Obligated Group upon meeting certain conditions set forth in the Master Trust Indenture. Pursuant to Supplemental Indenture No. 2, the Hospital will agree not to withdraw from the Obligated Group as long as Obligation No. 2 remains Outstanding. As of the date of issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds, Obligation No. 1 and Obligation No. 2 will be the only Obligations outstanding under the Master Trust Indenture. Obligation No. 2 will rank on a parity as to payment with Obligation No. 1 and any future Obligations that may be issued under the Master Trust Indenture.

The Master Indenture does not impose any financial or other tests as a condition to the issuance of Additional Obligations or other indebtedness by the Hospital or any other Members of the Obligated Group. Such Additional Obligations and other indebtedness may be issued or incurred from time to time without restriction. See “FORM OF THE MASTER INDENTURE – Amount of Indebtedness” in APPENDIX E. The documents for the FHA-Insured Mortgage Loans (as defined below) contain provisions for the benefit of the mortgagees and the mortgage insurer for such loans, some of which impose conditions to and restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness. The terms and provisions of the FHA-Insured Mortgage Loans documents are solely for the benefit of the parties thereto and may be amended or waived in accordance with their terms, without the consent of or notice to the holders of the 2015 Bonds or the 2016 Bonds. See “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS – Outstanding Indebtedness” in the front part of this Offering Memorandum.

The Master Trust Indenture does not grant a security interest in or lien on any property or revenue of the Hospital or any future Members of the Obligated Group to secure the Obligations. Accordingly, Obligation No. 1 is, and Obligation No. 2 will be, unsecured. The Master Trust Indenture permits the Members of the Obligated Group to secure Indebtedness, including any Additional Obligations that may be issued in the future, so long as the lien granted is a Permitted Lien under the Master Trust Indenture. See “FORM OF THE MASTER INDENTURE – Limitations on Creation of Liens.

The Hospital has long-term indebtedness outstanding that is not subject to the Master Trust Indenture and not evidenced by an Obligation. This long-term indebtedness totaled approximately $1.0 billion as of March 31, 2016, and includes the Hospital’s FHA-insured mortgage loans (the “FHA-Insured

A-8

Mortgage Loans”) and its obligation to repay a loan funded from proceeds of the sale of Dormitory Authority of the State of New York Secured Hospital Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2011 (the “Series 2011 Bonds”). The FHA-Insured Mortgage Loans are secured by mortgages on substantially all of the Weill Cornell Campus, the Columbia Campus, the Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital, Allen Hospital and the Westchester Division, and a pledge of the Hospital’s revenues and accounts. The Series 2011 Bonds were originally issued for the benefit of New York Downtown Hospital and the obligation to repay them was assumed by the Hospital as a liability in the July 2013 merger. This obligation is secured by a mortgage on the Lower Manhattan Hospital and a pledge of the Hospital’s gross receipts. See “FINANCIAL AND OPERATING INFORMATION – Outstanding Long-term Indebtedness” below and “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS – Outstanding Indebtedness” in the front part of this Offering Memorandum. The Hospital will covenant in Supplemental Indenture No. 2 that it will not incur any additional indebtedness under an FHA-Insured Loan other than for purposes of refinancing an existing FHA-Insured Loan.

Possible Additions to the Obligated Group under the Master Trust Indenture

Management of the Hospital is considering the possibility of adding one or more of the Hospital’s indirect subsidiaries and/or other affiliates to the Obligated Group or designating such entities as Designated Affiliates2 under the Master Trust Indenture. See Sections 3.09 and 3.11 of the Master Trust Indenture in Appendix D to this Offering Memorandum for the provisions relating to admitting new Obligated Group Members and designating Designated Affiliates.

As part of its decision-making process, the Hospital is evaluating the regulatory and contractual steps and approvals that would be required to take these actions, which would include obtaining consents under its FHA-Insured Mortgage Loans and certain of its other indebtedness and approvals under New York State Department of Health regulations, among others. Management believes it may be beneficial to the Hospital and the Regional Hospitals for certain of the Hospital’s affiliates to become members of the Obligated Group or Designated Affiliates under the Master Trust Indenture. However, to date no approvals of the Hospital’s Board of Trustees or the governing body of any Hospital affiliate have been obtained for the addition of any affiliates to the Obligated Group or the designation of any Designated Affiliates, and there can be no assurance that the Board will approve any such additions or designations in the future. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the Hospital will secure the regulatory and other approvals that would be required for any affiliate to join the Obligated Group or to become a Designated Affiliate.

MISSION, VISION AND VALUES

The Hospital’s strives to maintain its position among the top academic medical centers in the nation in clinical and service excellence, patient safety, research and education. To achieve this goal, the Hospital is dedicated to the following values: Respect (Every Person Counts), Teamwork (Working Together), Excellence (Exceptional Quality and Service), Empathy (Listen, Understand and Respond), Innovation (Creative Ideas, Cutting Edge Solutions) and Responsibility (Honoring Our Past, Ensuring Our Future). These values support the Hospital’s ultimate goal: “We Put Patients First.” The Hospital strives to make patients the first priority and provide them with the highest quality, safest, and most compassionate care and service.

2 There are currently no Designated Affiliates. A Designated Affiliate is an entity over which an Obligated Group Member maintains control and with regard to which the Obligated Group Member agrees to cause such entity to comply with the terms of the Master Trust Indenture. Designated Members, however, are not directly bound by the Master Trust Indenture.

GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The Board of Trustees

The Hospital, a New York not-for-profit corporation, received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service that it is qualified as an exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). It is governed by a Board of Trustees elected by the Hospital’s corporate members from among those persons who are corporate members of NYPFI. The Hospital Board currently numbers 86 persons. The Trustees are elected for four-year terms. Those trustees with a considerable record of service to the Hospital have the option of requesting election to “Life Trustee” status. Life Trustees do not have a vote at the Board meetings, but may serve on committees with the right to vote. Two Columbia University trustees and two Cornell University trustees serve on the Hospital Board. The Chief Executive Officer of the Hospital and the President and Vice President of the Medical Staff serve as ex-officio Trustees with the right to vote. The Board meets six times a year at one of the Hospital campuses. Given the size and complexity of the Hospital, much of the work of the Board is first addressed in one of the active standing committees that together cover every aspect of the Hospital’s operation.

In the surveys conducted by The Joint Commission since the 1998 merger that created the Hospital, the Board has received the top grade for governance. Each trustee is required to participate in the orientation and continuing education programs.

The conflict of interest policy requires any duality of interest or possible conflict of interest on the part of any Board member, officer and key persons to be disclosed to the Board and made a matter of record. If a Board member has a duality of interest or possible conflict of interest on any matter, the Board member may not vote or use personal influence on the matter.

Competition and Other Area Hospitals

The Metropolitan Area is home to a number of academic medical centers offering tertiary and quaternary care services similar to those offered at the Hospital. Although this environment offers intellectual and professional advantages to the Hospital and its physicians, there is intense competition between the Hospital and similar institutions to recruit admitting physicians and to provide optimum facilities for patient care and academic research. Further, suburban medical care facilities have been upgrading their facilities in an effort to become more attractive to physicians and patients and to capture patients formerly referred to facilities such as the Hospital. Insurers and other third-party payors, such as

A-29

Medicare, have undertaken efforts to reduce hospital utilization, further intensifying competitive pressures.

The Hospital competes with several academic medical centers and other large health care systems in the region. It also competes with suburban hospitals for patients referred from the secondary service area. Some of these facilities, which have benefited from less challenging environments than the Hospital, have undertaken extensive construction programs in recent years and have engaged in physician recruitment and other programs that have maintained or enhanced their competitive position.

Major private competitors include Montefiore Medical Center, Mount Sinai Health System (“Mount Sinai”), New York University Langone Medical Center (“NYU Langone”), and Northwell Health (f/k/a North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System) (“Northwell”). The New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (“NYC Health and Hospitals”), which is the City of New York’s public health care system, owns and operates 11 acute care hospitals.

The following table shows the market share for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, for the Hospital, other members of the Health Care System (acute care hospitals only), other major health care systems in the area and all other hospitals. Market share is measured by inpatient discharges of patients who reside in New York City or Westchester County, New York.

STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS

System-Wide Organization

Beginning in late 2015, the Hospital announced certain organizational changes to support the Hospital’s ongoing growth and strategic direction and its relationship with the Regional Hospitals. The activities of the Hospital and the Regional Hospitals are now described as four major divisions: (i) the Hospital, which serves as the academic hub of the organization and its activities; (ii) the Regional Hospital Network; (iii) NewYork-Presbyterian Physician Services; and (iv) NewYork–Presbyterian Community and Population Health.

NewYork-Presbyterian Physician Services is intended to broaden and expand healthcare delivery in the Metropolitan Area by establishing a network for physicians not employed by the Hospital who have privileges at the Hospital or at the Regional Hospitals. NewYork-Presbyterian Physician Services has the following key responsibilities: (i) facilitating specialty physicians from ColumbiaDoctors and Weill Cornell Medical Associates to provide services to the Regional Hospitals and the NYP Medical Groups3; (ii) the NYP Physician Services Organization, which provides physician practice management and administrative infrastructure for the NYP Medical Groups; (iii) the development of clinical programs at the Regional Hospitals; and (iv) clinical integration to promote a continuum of care among the Hospital, the Regional Hospitals and aligned physician organizations.

The New York-Presbyterian Community and Population Health division brings together various activities of the Hospital and the Regional Hospitals relating to community and population health, comprising ambulatory care network sites and operations, community programs and initiatives, and healthcare quality programs, including New York Quality Care, an Accountable Care Organization (“ACO”) jointly established in 2015 by the Hospital and the Medical Schools.

Governance Changes

The Hospital is in the process of instituting governance arrangements designed to facilitate integration of the activities of the Hospital and the Regional Hospitals by clearly defining the roles and responsibilities of the Hospital’s Board of Trustees and the respective roles and responsibilities of the boards of the NYP Active Parent Corporations and the Regional Hospitals. Under these arrangements, some of which are subject to various approvals before they can be fully implemented, the Hospital’s Board of Trustees will be responsible for overall strategic vision and oversight of the activities of the Hospital and the Regional Hospitals. The board of each of the NYP Active Parent Corporations will make strategic decisions and establish objectives and approve budgets for the Regional Hospitals under their control, among other responsibilities. The board of each Regional Hospital, in turn, will monitor the implementation of steps to maximize and improve quality of care, engage the local community, and address matters relating to quality and credentialing. Plans are underway to consolidate the Regional Hospitals under Community Programs, thereby having just one NYP Active Parent Corporation.

Along with these governance changes, certain functions of the Hospital and the Regional Hospitals are being centralized and standardized. Similarly, the Hospital is taking steps, through an effort coordinated by both physician and administrative management, to reorganize service lines to ensure

3 NYP Medical Groups is the term used by the Hospital for certain physician group practices established as captive professional corporations affiliated with the Regional Hospitals. Each of the NYP Medical Groups is headed by a physician that is a full time employee of one of the Regional Hospitals. NYP Medical Groups include several hundred physicians across multiple offices in New York City and Westchester County, New York.

A-32 consistent high quality care at the Hospital and the Regional Hospitals. For example, in cardiac care, activities are being integrated and coordinated with a goal of enabling patients at the Hospital and each of the Regional Hospitals to receive comprehensive, multidisciplinary care from top cardiac specialists.

Service Line Regionalization

In order to maintain a consistent standard of care across the Hospital and the Regional Hospitals, the Hospital is regionalizing key service lines through protocol development, service standards, quality metrics, technology, clinical trials, and physician expertise. Regionalization is designed to enable the Hospital and its affiliates to provide the highest quality patient centered care while improving the health and wellbeing of patients, addressing community needs, aligning physician leadership, and enhancing access to innovative programs and clinical trials throughout their service areas.

The regionalization of the Hospital’s care is supported by the recruitment of physicians through NYP Medical Groups in collaboration with the faculty practices of the Medical Schools. NYP Medical Groups consists of several hundred physicians across multiple practice locations in New York City and Westchester. NYP Medical Groups utilize an integrated information technology system and are supported by the practice management, human resources, legal and other services provided through the NYP’s physician service organization.

Furthermore, the Hospital is using technology to support its efforts to regionalize care. Telehealth capabilities are enabling the Hospital to bring the expertise of academic clinicians to patients in all of the communities that its serves. Through the first peer-to-peer teleconsult programs in New York, the Hospital has reduced psychiatrist access times at the Regional Hospitals’ emergency departments from 24 hours to 2 hours. The recent launch of the country’s largest digital second opinion service is designed to enable patients in New York, across the country and around the globe to obtain access to the right expertise of the Hospital and its specialists for their conditions in a few days – rather than the weeks it may have taken in the past.

The Hospital’s upcoming digital urgent care program is designed to enable its patients to reduce visits to the emergency department, when medically appropriate, and to improve wait times for those patients already in the emergency department. The Hospital is also building New York’s first telestroke ambulance – enabling critical stroke care to be delivered as soon as emergency medical technicians reach the patient. The Hospital’s televisit program – which is expected to be the first in New York State - will enable many patients to conduct follow-up visits with their physicians from their home.

NYP Regional Health Collaborative

In 2008, the Hospital joined with Columbia University Medical School and community-based providers and collaborators to form the Regional Health Collaborative. The Regional Health Collaborative set out to document the priority health needs of the Washington Heights-Inwood community in order to target high prevalence conditions while integrating longstanding community services into the fabric of the healthcare systems and processes.

The centerpiece of the first generation of the Regional Health Collaborative was the conversion of seven ambulatory care centers located in the community into a network of Patient Centered Medical Homes (“PCMHs”). The PCMHs achieved Level 3 recognition from the National Committee for Quality Assurance, the highest level available.

The Regional Health Collaborative initially targeted those conditions identified as major health problems in the community: diabetes, asthma, heart failure, depression, and childhood obesity. Many

A-33 more chronic physical and behavioral primary and co-morbidity conditions are tracked at the PCMHs and the central registry now numbers about 54,000 patients. The development and implementation of the Regional Health Collaborative was reported under “Innovations in Care” in the October 2011 Health Affairs issue on Disparities in Health and Health Care. A subsequent 2014 Health Affairs article reported three year outcomes for a cohort of 5,852 patients which experienced emergency department and inpatient hospitalization reductions of 29.7% and 28.5%, respectively. In 2014, the Regional Health Collaborative was presented the Spencer Foreman Award for Outstanding Community Service by the Association of American Medical Colleges.

The Hospital continues to build upon the success of the Regional Health Collaborative through its participation in New York State Medicaid’s Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (“DSRIP”) Program. DSRIP seeks to fundamentally restructure the Medicaid health care delivery system with a primary goal of reducing avoidable hospital use by 25% over five years. New York State has allocated $7.4 billion dollars to the DSRIP program with payouts to Performing Provider Systems (PPS) based upon achieving predefined results in system transformation, clinical management and population health.

The Hospital is the lead applicant in the NYP Performing Provider System (“NYP PPS”), a network based on the Regional Health Collaborative model. NYP PPS is made up of the Hospital, its PCMHs and 95+ providers and community-based service organizations that are jointly committed to improving the health and wellbeing of the community they serve and reducing unnecessary hospital and emergency department use. Nearly 90,000 Medicaid beneficiaries have been assigned to the NYP PPS and ten DSRIP-specific projects are underway. The projects include a 30-day transition of care program aimed at reducing readmissions as well as a patient navigation program at four local emergency departments to promote the use of PCMHs instead of the emergency department for ambulatory care sensitive conditions.

A similar model has been used to support the Hospital’s participation in NewYork Quality Care (“NYQC”), a Medicare Shared Savings Program Accountable Care Organization (“ACO”) established in January 2015 together with the Medical Schools. NYQC was attributed 30,000 beneficiaries in 2015 with preliminary results showing a performance level that beat the CMS benchmark for the ACO. In addition NYQC completed the quality reporting necessary to qualify for the maximum level of shared savings should the preliminary results hold true through the CMS reconciliation process.

The Hospital’s participation in the Regional Health Collaborative, the NYP PPS, and NYQC, is allowing it to develop capabilities and obtain experience managing the health of populations and to prepare for the migration of certain reimbursement to value-based payments.

Capital Plan

The Hospital’s 2012-2019 Capital Plan includes projects with costs totaling approximately $3.9 billion. The Capital Plan contemplates that the Hospital will finance approximately $2.4 billion of this from operations, approximately $975 million in philanthropy and the remainder (approximately $500 million) with debt incurred in 2013. Approximately $1.4 billion has been expended through 2015, with the balance to be expended through 2020. Projects include the following:

o Construction and equipping of the new 500,000 square-foot The David H. Koch Ambulatory Center at the Weill Cornell Campus. o Construction and equipping of the new 250,000 square-foot The Alexandra & Steven Cohen Hospital for Women and Newborns at the Weill Cornell Campus.

A-34

o Expansion, renovation and equipping of the Morgan Stanley Adult Emergency Department at the Columbia Campus, which is scheduled for completion in December 2017 and will double the size of the emergency department at this Campus. o Renovation of key inpatient units at the Columbia Campus. o New capacity and efficiency projects and inpatient bed unit enhancements at all campuses. o Major new investments in information technology and infrastructure.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Utilization

Three-month period ended March 31, 2016 compared to three-month period ended March 31, 2015

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Hospital’s inpatient discharges increased 1,371 cases or 5.2% compared to the same period in 2015. This is partially attributable to the new physician recruits across various programs and the addition of new programs at various campuses.

Emergency Room visits increased 6,841 visits or 10.3% compared to the same period in 2015 primarily due to the completion of the first phase of a multi-phase renovation and expansion of the Milstein Emergency Department at the Columbia Campus, increase in flu related volume and increase in psychiatric volume.

Outpatient Clinic visits increased 6,002 or 3.8% compared to the same period in 2015 primarily due to extended hours at the Weill Cornell Campus rehabilitation clinic and increased volume at the offsite primary care clinics associated with the Columbia Campus.

Ambulatory Surgery procedures increased 2,122 cases or 9.2% compared to the same period in 2015 primarily due to an increase in outpatient cardiac catheterization volume, resulting from the opening of a new catheterization lab in Westchester County. In addition, there were increased ambulatory surgery volumes at the Columbia Campus and Lower Manhattan Campus as a result of new physician recruits across various programs.

Mental Health Clinic visits increased 576 visits or 2.0% compared to the same period in 2015 was driven primarily by the increase in the psychiatric clinic visits at the Westchester Division and the pediatric psychiatric visits at the Columbia Campus.

A-44

Year ended December 31, 2015 compared to year ended December 31, 2014

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Hospital inpatient discharges decreased 518 cases or 0.5% compared to the same period in 2014. This is partially attributable to the implementation of the two midnight census rule by CMS in October 2013. Under the rule, surgical procedures, diagnostic tests and other treatments are generally classified as admissions only if the hospital stay is expected to cross at least two midnights and if the physician admits the patient based upon that expectation. The utilization of the two midnight rule continues to lead an industry-wide shift from inpatient to outpatient status. However, CMS has continued to refine this rule to accept physician judgment in determining inpatient status, if appropriately documented.

Emergency Room visits increased 13,815 visits or 5.3% compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to the mid-year completion of the first phase of a multi-phase renovation and expansion of the Milstein Emergency Department at the Columbia Campus.

Outpatient Clinic visits decreased 10,512 visits or 1.5% compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to decreased volumes at primary care and school-based clinics related to the difficulty recruiting primary care doctors.

Ambulatory Surgery procedures increased 5,442 cases or 5.8% compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to an increase in outpatient cardiac catheterization volume, in part due to opening of a new catheterization lab in Westchester County. In addition, there were increased ambulatory surgery volumes at the Columbia Campus, Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital and Lower Manhattan Hospital as the result of new physician recruits across all programs and the application of the two midnight rule.

Mental Health Clinic visits decreased 681 visits or 0.6% compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to the closure of the Westchester Division Day Hospitalization program.

Year ended December 31, 2014 compared to year ended December 31, 2013

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Hospital inpatient discharges decreased 2,299 cases or 2.1% compared to the same period in 2013. This is partially attributable to the implementation of the two midnight census rule by CMS in October 2013. Under the rule, surgical procedures, diagnostic tests and other treatments are generally classified as admissions only if the hospital stay is expected to cross at least two midnights and if the physician admits the patient based upon that expectation. The utilization of the two midnight rule continues to lead an industry-wide shift from inpatient to outpatient status.

Emergency Room visits increased 8,846 visits or 3.5% compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to increased volume at the Columbia campus and Allen Hospital emergency departments.

Outpatient Clinic visits decreased 21,250 visits or 3.1% compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to decreased volumes at the primary care and offsite clinics related to the difficulty recruiting doctors as a result of the shortage in primary care physicians. In addition, one of the Hospital’s oncology clinics transferred to the Columbia University Medical School.

Ambulatory Surgery procedures increased 2,552 cases or 2.8% compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to an increase in cardiac catheterization procedures, orthopedic surgeries at the Allen Hospital, interventional radiology procedures at the Cornell campus and the application of the two midnight rule.

Mental Health Clinic visits increased 4,160 visits or 3.7% compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to the due to opening of the Center for Autism and the Developing Brain at the Westchester Division.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Recent Financial Performance

Three-month period ended March 31, 2016 compared to three-month period ended March 31, 2015

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Hospital had operating income of $89.8 million, a $57.2 million or 175.8 % increase over the same period in 2015. Excess of revenues over expenses was $110.3 million, which represented a $39.7 million or 56.3% increase over the same period in 2015.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, net patient service revenue, less provision for bad debt, increased $155.1 million or 14.5% over the same period the previous year. This increase was driven primarily due to higher utilization across most of the inpatient services, realizing higher rates, a higher case mix and increased outpatient activity across most outpatient services.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, other revenue increased $7.4 million or 11.6% over the same period in 2015, due primarily to increased distributions from provider owned plans.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, total operating expenses increased $105.2 million or 9.6% compared with the same period in the previous year. Salaries and benefits increased $57.8 million or 8.6% over the same period in the previous year. This increase is primarily a function of having 1,065 more full time equivalents to accommodate increased patient days, investments in care coordination, population health improvements, information technology and innovation, expanded emergency services and new clinical initiatives, most notably the spine programs at the Allen Hospital and Lower Manhattan Hospital, coupled with the corresponding increase in benefits and wage increases.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, supplies and other expenses increased $42.7 million or 12.3% over the previous year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in medical and surgical supplies resulting from higher outpatient activity and surgical procedures and pharmaceuticals resulting from more ambulatory oncology visits. Interest and amortization of deferred fees increased by $1.1 million or 7.5%, primarily due to the Hospital issuing $750.0 million of taxable debt in February 2015. Depreciation expense increased $3.6 million or 5.6% reflecting the completion of a number of Hospital capital projects.

Year ended December 31, 2015 compared to year ended December 31, 2014

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Hospital had operating income of $225.1 million, a $3.2 million or 1.5% increase over the same period in 2014. Excess of revenues over expenses was $196.5 million at December 31, 2015, an $88.7 million or 31.1% decrease from the same period in 2014. The decrease was primarily due to a loss on investments of $28.6 million compared to an investment return of $63.3 million for the same period in 2014.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, net patient service revenue, less provision for bad debt, increased $299.5 million or 7.1% over the same period the previous year. This increase was driven primarily by realizing higher rates, a more favorable payor mix and increased outpatient activity in ambulatory surgery procedures and ancillary services, offset to some extent by an increase in provision for bad debt as a result of the recognition of additional reserves related to an insurance carrier based on the New York State health insurance exchange.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, total operating expenses increased $300.9 million or 7.1% compared with the same period in the previous year. Salaries and benefits increased $162.9 or 6.3% over the prior year. This increase is primarily a function of having 631 more full time equivalents to accommodate investments in care coordination, population health improvements, information technology

A-46 and innovation, expanded emergency services and new clinical initiatives, including the spine programs at the Allen Hospital and Lower Manhattan Hospital, coupled with the corresponding increase in benefits and wage increases.

For the year ended December 31, 2015 supplies and other expenses increased $112.6 million or 8.4% over prior year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in expenses related to pharmaceuticals resulting from more ambulatory oncology visits, more repairs and maintenance, the higher consumption of utilities and more operating leases, including the costs associated with a new ambulatory oncology center, offset by a decrease in insurance expenses. Interest and amortization of deferred fees increased by $19.8 million or 43.1% primarily due to the Hospital issuing $750.0 million of taxable debt in February 2015. Depreciation and amortization increased $5.6 million or 2.2% reflecting the completion of a number of Hospital capital projects.

Year ended December 31, 2014 compared to year ended December 31, 2013

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Hospital had operating income of $221.9 million, a $19.7 million or 9.8% increase over the same period in 2013. Excess of revenues over expenses was $285.2 million at December 31, 2014, a $71.1 million or 20.0% decrease from the same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily due to investment return of $63.3 million compared to an investment return of $153.9 million for the same period in 2013.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, net patient service revenue, less provision for bad debt, increased $209.7 million or 5.2% over the same period the previous year. This increase was driven primarily by realizing higher rates, increased case mix, a more favorable payor mix and increased outpatient activity in emergency room visits, mental health clinic visits, ambulatory surgery procedures and ancillary services.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, total operating expenses increased $181.4 million or 4.5% compared with the same period in the previous year. Salaries and benefits increased $106.2 or 4.3% over the prior year. This increase is primarily a function of having 277 more full time equivalents, coupled with the corresponding increase in benefits and wage increases.

For the year ended December 31, 2014 supplies and other expenses increased $67.0 million or 5.3% over prior year. The increase was primarily due to utilizing more medical and surgical supplies as a result of servicing more acutely ill patients, increase in pharmaceuticals resulting from more ambulatory oncology visits, more repairs and maintenance and higher consumption of utilities, offset by a decrease in insurance expenses as a result of the reduction in the Hospital’s malpractice tail liability. Interest and amortization of deferred fees increased by $7.0 million or 17.8% primarily due to the Hospital financing of $500.0 million of taxable debt in September 2013.

Fund, Inc.

Fund, Inc. was incorporated in December 1982 with the stated corporate purpose of soliciting, receiving and administering funds to be applied exclusively for charitable, educational, and scientific purposes of New York Hospital and any other health-care related charitable organization approved by the board of directors of the Fund, Inc. After the merger with Presbyterian Hospital, Fund, Inc.’s corporate charter was amended to refer to the Hospital as the successor corporate entity to New York Hospital. In addition to the historical ties between Fund, Inc. and the Hospital, the two entities are affiliated by virtue of overlapping board membership; the members of the Board of Directors of Fund, Inc. all serve ex- officio and consist of the corporate members of NYPFI who serve on the Board of Trustees of the Hospital.

Despite the historical and corporate links between Fund, Inc. and the Hospital, the Board of Directors of Fund Inc. has complete discretion within its stated corporate purposes with respect to the distribution of its unrestricted assets. Historically, the Hospital has received all or substantially all of such distributions. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, Fund Inc. distributed approximately $105.5 million, $83.2 million and $77.8 million, respectively, for the purchase of fixed assets to the Hospital. There is, however, no legal or contractual requirement that Fund Inc. continue to make distributions of unrestricted assets to the Hospital. Fund, Inc. also holds certain assets on behalf the Hospital that are restricted and may only be used for the benefit of the Hospital.

Capital Expenditures

In 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Hospital incurred capital expenditures of $492.7 million, $402.4 million and $319.1 million, respectively, for acquisition of plant, property and equipment (net of disposals). These expenditures were funded from internally generated cash flow, donations and proceeds of loans. In 2015, 2014 and 2013, Fund, Inc. on behalf of the Hospital received approximately $184.5 million, $148.4 million and $306.7 million, respectively, in new gifts and pledges from individual, foundation and corporate donors for capital acquisitions and other purposes. See “STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS – Capital Plan” above for information regarding the Hospital’s 2012-2019 Capital Plan.

Royal Charter Properties

The RCP Corporations were incorporated in 1983 under the New York Not-for-Profit Law, to develop and manage real estate for the benefit of health-related charitable organizations including the Hospital. Each of the RCP Corporations has the power to acquire and hold real estate, collect income from such real estate and turn over the income therefrom, less expenses and reasonable reserves, to any qualified health related charitable organization approved by its board of directors. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, the RCP Corporations had an aggregate net operating income of approximately $50.3 million. Historically, on an annual basis, each of the RCP Corporations has turned over its excess of revenue over expenses (“Excess Revenue”) to the Hospital. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, these amounts totaled $46.6 million, $45.0 million and $50.5 million, respectively, and are included in other operating revenue in the Statement of Operations of the Hospital. However, the board of directors of each of the RCP Corporations has complete discretion within its stated corporate purposes with respect to the distribution of its Excess Revenue; there is no legal or contractual requirement that these amounts be distributed to the Hospital.

Uncompensated Care and Community Benefit Expense

The Hospital provides services to special populations such as minorities, the elderly, persons with disabilities, the mentally ill, persons with AIDS and poor persons (“Special Populations”), as well as to the broader community. Services provided to such Special Populations include services provided to persons who cannot afford health care because of inadequate resources and who are uninsured or underinsured. The Hospital provides quality medical care regardless of race, creed, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, handicap, age or ability to pay. Although reimbursement for services rendered is critical to the operations and stability of the Hospital, the Hospital recognizes that not all individuals have the ability to pay for medically necessary services and, furthermore, the Hospital’s mission is to serve the community with respect to health care. Therefore, in some instances the Hospital provides uncompensated care through medical care to the indigent for free or discounted prices (charity care/financial aid) and care to persons covered by governmental programs that pay the Hospital less than the full cost of services provided. In addition, the Hospital provides significant community benefit activities which include wellness programs, community education programs, health screenings and a broad variety of community support services, health professionals’ education, school based programs and subsidized health services. The costs related to uncompensated care and community benefit activities of the Hospital for the year ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $729.7 million, $646.2 million and $597.0 million, respectively.

EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

As of December 31, 2015, the Hospital employed approximately 22,950 FTEs, of which approximately 6,602 were nursing staff, including advanced practice nurses, registered nurses, technicians, nursing aides and licensed practical nurses. Of these, approximately 5,603 FTEs were registered nurses. In recent years the Hospital has been able to recruit an adequate number of nursing staff, although recruitment has become more difficult recently.

The following table shows the breakdown of FTEs of the Hospital as of December 31, 2015:

The New York State Nurses Association represents approximately 3,200 employees and Local 1199, National Health and Human Service Employees Union (“Local 1199”), represents approximately 5,300 employees. The agreement with Local 1199 is a multi- employer agreement and expires September 30, 2018. The agreement with the New York State Nurses

A-52

Association (“NYSNA”) expires December 31, 2018. The remaining collective bargaining agreements are with: Occupational Therapy Association (expired on November 30, 2015; pending negotiations), Physical Therapy Collective Negotiations Committee (expired November 30, 2015, currently in negotiations), Professional Dieticians of New York (expired January 31, 2016; new Memorandum of Agreement pending ratification by members, will expire on January 31, 2019 if ratified) and Communication Workers of America, AFL-CIO (expires November 30, 2018). Benefits to Hospital employees who are covered by collective bargaining agreements are governed by the terms of the respective contracts and jointly administered trust funds. Benefits offered to eligible nursing employees include: health insurance covering hospitalization and major medical expenses, and life insurance.

The Hospital provides pension and similar benefits to its employees through several plans, including various multi-employer plans for union employees, a qualified noncontributory defined benefit plan primarily for eligible nonunion employees of the Hospital and certain of its related organizations, and a nonqualified defined benefit plan for certain executives. The Hospital also provides pension and similar benefits to certain employees through a defined contribution plan. The Hospital funds the noncontributory defined benefit plans in accordance with the minimum funding requirement of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), plus additional amounts that the Hospital may deem appropriate from time to time. Amounts contributed to the defined benefit plans are based on actuarial valuations. Contributions to union plans are based on union employee gross salary levels and rates required under union contractual arrangements. Contributions to the Hospital’s defined contribution plan are generally based on percentages of annual salaries. For a statement as to funding of pension obligations, see Note 9 of the audited financial statements of the Hospital for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 set forth in Appendix C-1.

LICENSURE AND ACCREDITATION

The Hospital has operating certificates from the New York State Department of Health and the New York State Office of Mental Health (“OMH”). The State of New York Division of Alcoholism and Alcohol Services (now Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services) issued operating certificates for inpatient alcohol rehabilitation and outpatient alcoholism treatment for the Westchester Division. The Hospital was most recently accredited by The Joint Commission in 2014; accreditation is valid for three years.

INSURANCE

The Hospital maintains comprehensive all-risk form property insurance, workers’ compensation insurance that complies with all statutory requirements, and general liability and hospital professional liability coverage. Property insurance is purchased from commercial carriers and is subject to deductibles. General liability and professional liability insurance is secured through a reciprocal risk retention group in which the Hospital is a member/shareholder. The Hospital insures for workers’ compensation claims through the New York State Insurance Fund.

In 1978, the Hospital, in conjunction with other unrelated healthcare entities, participated in the formation of a captive insurance company (the “Captive”) to provide professional liability and general liability insurance to its participants. In 2014, the Captive, in order to better serve its member/shareholders, modified its corporate structure to become a reciprocal risk retention group. Premiums are actuarially determined based upon the loss experience of the member/shareholder and the risk retention group itself. The professional liability tower provides coverage in excess of $270 million to the Hospital.

A-53

The Hospital maintains primary professional liability insurance coverage for employed physicians and other employed health care professionals, including interns and residents, providing access to the full excess of liability noted above. All non hospital-employed Medical Staff members with admitting privileges are required to maintain professional liability insurance coverage in amounts not less than $1.0 million per occurrence and $3.0 million in the aggregate.

LITIGATION

The Hospital is subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of its operations. As of June 16, 2016, the Hospital has no litigation, including medical malpractice litigation, or proceedings pending or, to its knowledge, threatened against it except: (i) litigation being defended by insurance companies on behalf of the Hospital, the probable recoveries in which and the estimated costs and expenses of defense of which, in the opinion of counsel to the Hospital for such matters or of the applicable insurance carrier, will be entirely within the Hospital’s applicable insurance policy limits (subject to applicable deductibles); and (ii) litigation, the probable recoveries in which and the estimated costs and expenses of defense of which, in the opinion of counsel to the Hospital for such matters and Hospital management, will not materially and adversely affect the Hospital’s operations or financial condition.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Recent Financial Performance

Three-month period ended March 31, 2016 compared to three-month period ended March 31, 2015

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, NYP/Lawrence had an operating loss of $1.9 million, a $1.6 million or 45.8% decrease over the same period in 2015. Deficiency of revenue over expenses was $1.7 million, which represented a $1.1 million or 39.9% decrease over the same period in 2015.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, net patient service revenue, less provision for bad debt, increased $7.5 million or 13.1% over the same period the previous year. This increase was primarily due to realizing higher reimbursement, increased outpatient services, and increased medical group visits as a result of the onboarding of new physicians.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, other revenue increased $0.1 million or 6.5% over the same period in 2015 primarily driven by increased rental income and rebates.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, total operating expenses increased $6.0 million or 9.7% compared with the same period in the previous year. Salaries and benefits increased $3.7 million or 9.7% over the same period in the previous year. This increase is a function of having 81 more full time equivalents resulting from investment in a new Cancer Center.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, supplies and other expenses increased $2.1 million or 10.1% over the previous year. This increase was primarily due to expenses related to medical service agreements with Columbia University and the physician services organization.

Year ended December 31, 2015 compared to year ended December 31, 2014

For the year ended December 31, 2015, NYP/Lawrence had an operating loss of $10.0 million, a $24.4 million or 169.8% decrease over the same period in 2014. Deficiency of revenue over expenses was $8.6 million, which represented a $23.1 million or 159.1% decrease over the same period in 2014.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, net patient service revenue, less provision for bad debt, increased $25.5 million or 11.6% over the same period the previous year. This increase was driven primarily by realizing higher reimbursement, increased outpatient and emergency service activity, and new program revenue from the physician medical group.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, other revenue decreased $2.5 million or 37.4% over the same period the previous year. This decrease was primarily due to lower contributions and grants.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, total operating expenses increased $47.4 million or 22.4% compared with the same period in the previous year. Salaries and benefits increased $14.4 million or 10.0% over the same period in the previous year. This increase is primarily a function of having 52 more full time equivalents resulting from investment in nursing and the medical group physicians for new programs.

B-5 For the year ended December 31, 2015, supplies and other expenses increased $33.7 million or 57.4% over the previous year. This increase was primarily due to incremental malpractice insurance expense over 2014. Insurance expense for the period ended year ended December 31, 2014 experienced a decrease in professional liability expense as a result of a retroactive premium reduction from a captive insurance company. There were also additional medical service agreements with Columbia University attributing to the increase in supplies and other expenses.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, NYP/Hudson Valley’s inpatient discharges increased 253 cases or 14.1% compared to the same period in 2015. This is attributable to an investment in additional physicians within orthopedics, internal medicine and bariatrics.

Emergency Room visits increased 208 visits or 2.6% compared to the same period in 2015.

B-10 Ambulatory Surgery procedures increased 44 cases or 3.8% compared to the same period in 2015. This increase is due to increased services provided by the additional surgeons in bariatrics and orthopedics.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Recent Financial Performance

Three-month period ended March 31, 2016 compared to three-month period ended March 31, 2015

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, NYP/Hudson Valley Hospital had operating income of $3.0 million, a $2.1 million or 229.9% increase over the same period in 2015. Excess of revenues over expenses was $3.1 million, which represented a $1.6 million or 106.2% increase over the same period in 2015.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, net patient service revenue, less provision for bad debt, increased $6.5 million or 15.2% over the same period the previous year. This increase was driven primarily due to higher utilization across most of the inpatient services, realizing higher reimbursement, and increased outpatient activity across most outpatient services.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, other revenue decreased $0.2 million or 13.8% over the same period the previous year.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, total operating expenses increased $4.2 million or 9.7% compared with the same period in the previous year. Salaries and benefits increased $3.8 million or 15.6% over the same period in the previous year. This increase is primarily a function of having 70 more full time equivalents to accommodate increased patient days, emergency services and ambulatory procedures.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, supplies and other expenses increased $0.8 million or 5.5% over the previous year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in expenses related to services and pharmaceuticals.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Utilization

Three-month period ended March 31, 2016 compared to three-month period ended March 31, 2015

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, NYP/Queens’ inpatient discharges decreased 58 cases or 0.8% compared to the same period in 2015. The three-month period ended March 31, 2016, yielded 29 lower obstetrical cases and a decrease is in general surgery and orthopedics volume partially offset by increased medical admissions from the emergency department.

Emergency Room visits increased 1,361 visits or 5.9% compared to the same period in 2015. Of this increase, 70% is attributable to adults and 30% to pediatrics.

Outpatient Clinic visits decreased 306 or 0.9% compared to the same period in 2015 primarily attributable to weather-related closures in late January.

Ambulatory Surgery procedures decreased 103 cases or 3.0% compared to the same period in 2015 as a result of decreased volume in orthopedics, urology and vascular.

Year ended December 31, 2015 compared to year ended December 31, 2014

For the year ended December 31, 2015, NYP/Queens’ inpatient discharges decreased 21 cases or 0.07% compared to the same period in 2014.

B-14 Emergency Room visits decreased 1,251 visits or 1.3% compared to the same period in 2014 primarily attributable to a reduction in pediatric visits due to a milder incidence of respiratory-related illness.

Outpatient Clinic visits decreased 3,141 or 2.2% compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to decreased volumes in the Family Health Center. In addition, there were decreased volumes in the Eye Center and the OB Center as a result of medical provider vacancies in such clinics.

Ambulatory Surgery procedures decreased 198 cases or 1.3% compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to a decrease in endoscopy volume as well as a reduction in gynecological surgeries due to surgeon turnover.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Recent Financial Performance

Three-month period ended March 31, 2016 compared to three-month period ended March 31, 2015

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, NYP/Queens had an operating loss of $0.4 million, a $1.0 million or 179.3% decrease over the same period in 2015. Excess of revenues over expenses was $1.7 million, which represented a $1.5 million or 46.4% decrease over the same period in 2015.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, net patient service revenue, less provision for bad debt, increased $14.5 million or 8.8% over the same period the previous year. This increase was primarily due to realizing higher reimbursement, increased outpatient services and increased medical group visits as a result of new, additional operationalized physician practices.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, other revenue increased $0.1 million or 1.5% over the same period in 2015.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, total operating expenses increased $15.6 million or 9.0% compared with the same period in the previous year. Salaries and benefits increased $10.2 million or 9.4% over the same period in the previous year. This increase is primarily a function of having 232 more full time equivalents resulting from investment in nursing, support/general, financial services and physicians.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, supplies and other expenses increased $5.6 million or 9.9% over the previous year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in expenses related to medical service agreements with Cornell University as well as increased software maintenance and service contract costs.

Year ended December 31, 2015 compared to year ended December 31, 2014

For the year ended December 31, 2015, NYP/Queens had operating income of $1.9 million, a $3.6 million or 64.7 % decrease over the same period in 2014. Excess of revenues over expenses was $1.4 million, which represented a $11.5 million or 89.1% decrease over the same period in 2014.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, net patient service revenue, less provision for bad debt, increased $40.8 million or 6.2% over the same period the previous year. This increase was driven primarily by realizing higher reimbursement.

B-15 For the year ended December 31, 2015, other revenue increased $7.0 million or 25.3% over the same period the previous year. This increase was primarily due to increased contributions/grants and additional rental income.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, total operating expenses increased $51.4 million or 7.5% compared with the same period in the previous year. Salaries and benefits increased $20.6 million or 4.8% over the same period in the previous year. This increase is primarily a function of having 187 more full time equivalents resulting from investment in nursing, support/general, financial services and physicians.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, supplies and other expenses increased $32.3 million or 15.1% over the previous year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in malpractice insurance expense. In addition, there were additional medical service agreements with Cornell University.

Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Trustees The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of The New York and Presbyterian Hospital, which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2015

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The New York and Presbyterian Hospital (NYPH), NYP Community Services, Inc. (Community Services) and NYP Community Programs, Inc. (Community Programs). NYPH is the sole member of Community Services and Community Programs. The reporting entity resulting from the consolidation of these entities is referred to herein as the “Hospital.” All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NYPH is a tax-exempt organization that was incorporated under New York State not-for-profit corporation law. NYPH is a major academic medical center, providing a full range of inpatient and outpatient services, mainly to residents of the New York metropolitan area. The Board of Trustees of the NYPH consists of persons who have first been elected as members of New York- Presbyterian Foundation, Inc. (Foundation, Inc.), a New York State not-for-profit corporation. Foundation, Inc. is related to a number of organizations.

New York-Presbyterian Fund, Inc. (Fund, Inc.) was incorporated under New York State not-for- profit corporation law to solicit, receive and administer funds to be applied exclusively for charitable, educational and scientific purposes, primarily for the benefit of health care related charitable organizations. The directors of Fund, Inc. consist of persons who have first been elected as members of Foundation, Inc. Fund, Inc. is related to NYPH and a number of other organizations.

On July 1, 2014 (the Lawrence Acquisition Date), Community Services acquired Lawrence Hospital Center and Subsidiaries, a 291-bed acute care hospital located in Bronxville, New York, a certified home health agency, a certified hospice program, a bereavement center, a durable medical equipment company and Lawrence Medical Associates, P.C., a State of New York professional corporation, and renamed it NewYork-Presbyterian/Lawrence Hospital (referred to herein as NYP/Lawrence Hospital or Lawrence). Community Services acquired NYP/Lawrence Hospital by means of an inherent contribution, in which no consideration was transferred by Community Services or NYPH. Community Services accounted for this business combination by applying the acquisition method and, accordingly, the inherent contribution received was valued as the excess of the value of NYP/Lawrence Hospital’s assets over liabilities. In determining the inherent contribution received, all assets and liabilities were measured at fair value as of the Lawrence Acquisition Date. The results of Lawrence’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the Lawrence Acquisition Date.

On January 26, 2015 (the Hudson Valley Acquisition Date), Community Programs acquired Hudson Valley Hospital Center, Westchester Putnam Health Management System, Inc. and their subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as NYP/Hudson Valley or Hudson Valley). Hudson Valley consists of a 128-bed acute care hospital located in Cortlandt Manor, Westchester County, New York, a foundation, a physician practice and certain other entities primarily formed to purchase and lease space. Community Programs acquired NYP/Hudson Valley by means of an inherent contribution, in which no consideration was transferred by Community Programs or NYPH. Community Programs accounted for this business combination by applying the acquisition method and, accordingly, the inherent contribution received was valued as the excess of the value of NYP/Hudson Valley’s assets over liabilities. In determining the inherent

On July 1, 2015 (the Queens Acquisition Date), sole membership of The New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens and its controlled affiliates was transferred to Community Programs. Community Programs became the entity’s active parent and renamed it NewYork- Presbyterian/Queens (referred to herein as Queens or NYP/Queens). NYP/Queens consists of a 535-bed acute care hospital located in Queens County, New York, a physician practice and certain other entities. As NYP/Queens and NYPH were entities under common control as of the Queens Acquisition Date, the change in control was accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of interests with retrospective adjustment in prior period financial statements for the period in which the entities were under common control. Therefore, the accompanying financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 reflect the financial

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, such as estimated uncollectibles for accounts receivable for services to patients, valuation of alternative investments, estimated settlements with third-party payors, professional liabilities and pension and postretirement benefit liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates also affect the amounts of revenue and expenses reported during the period. There is at least a reasonable possibility that certain estimates will change by material amounts in the near term.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments: The Hospital classifies as cash equivalents all highly liquid financial instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased, excluding those held in short-term investments and assets limited as to use. Investments that are readily marketable and that are not classified as assets limited as to use are considered short-term investments and are classified as current assets. Short-term investments are used for cash management purposes and consist of cash and cash equivalents, fixed income and equity securities. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Hospital’s cash and cash equivalents include money market funds and interest-bearing accounts that are not fully insured by the U.S. government.

Receivables for Patient Care: Patient accounts receivable for which the Hospital receives payment under cost reimbursement, prospective payment formulae or negotiated rates, which cover the majority of patient services, are stated at the estimated net amounts receivable from payors, which are generally less than the established billing rates of the Hospital. The amount of the allowance for uncollectibles is based on management’s assessment of historical and expected collections, business economic conditions, trends in health care coverage, and other collection indicators. Additions to the allowance for uncollectibles result from the provision for bad debts. Accounts written off as uncollectible are deducted from the allowance for uncollectibles.

Supplies: Supplies, which are determined on the first-in, first-out method, are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Supplies are used in the provision of patient care and are not held for sale.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Investments and Investment Return: All investments (excluding interests in common collective/commingled trusts and alternative investments) are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices and are classified as trading investments. Common collective/commingled trusts are reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position based upon net asset values derived from the application of the equity method of accounting. See Note 9 for a description of the accounting policies related to assets held in the Hospital’s defined benefit pension plans.

Alternative investment interests generally are structured such that the Hospital holds a limited partnership interest or an interest in an investment management company. The Hospital’s ownership structure does not provide for control over the related investees and the Hospital’s financial risk is limited to the carrying amount reported for each investee, in addition to any unfunded capital commitment.

Individual investment holdings within the alternative investments include non-marketable and market-traded debt, equity and real asset securities and interests in other alternative investments. The Hospital may be exposed indirectly to securities lending, short sales of securities and trading in futures and forward contracts, options and other derivative products. Alternative investments often have liquidity restrictions under which the Hospital’s capital may be divested only at specified times.

Alternative investments are reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position based upon net asset values derived from the application of the equity method of accounting. Financial information used by the Hospital to evaluate its alternative investments is provided by the investment manager or general partner and includes fair value valuations (quoted market prices and values determined through other means) of underlying securities and other financial instruments held by the investee, and estimates that require varying degrees of judgment. The financial statements of the investee companies are audited annually by independent auditors, although the timing for reporting the results of such audits does not coincide with the Hospital’s annual financial statement reporting.

18 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

There is uncertainty in the accounting for alternative investments arising from factors such as lack of active markets (primary and secondary), lack of transparency into underlying holdings and time lags associated with reporting by the investee companies. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that estimates will change in the near term.

Investments received as a gift are recorded at fair value on the date of contribution.

All investment transactions are recorded on the dates such trades take place. Realized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities are based on the average cost method. Interest income is recorded as earned. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Investment return is included within the performance indicator in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, unless restricted by donor or law. Investment returns are reported net of investment expenses.

Assets Limited as to Use: Assets so classified represent investments whose use is restricted for specific purposes under internal and/or external designation, terms of loan agreements and for self-insured professional liabilities. Assets limited as to use which are internally designated for funded depreciation represent amounts that will be expended in future periods for acquisitions of property, buildings and equipment. Assets limited as to use required to meet current liabilities and current year pledges receivable held by NYP/Lawrence Hospital are reported as current assets.

Beneficial Interest in Net Assets Held by Related Organizations: The Hospital recognizes its accumulated interest in the net assets held by Fund, Inc. and The New York Weill Cornell Medical Center Fund, Inc. (WCMC Fund) as beneficial interest in net assets held by related organizations in its consolidated statements of financial position and also recognizes the periodic changes in such interests in its consolidated statements of changes in net assets.

Property, Buildings, and Equipment: Property, buildings, and equipment purchased are recorded at cost and those acquired through gifts and bequests are carried at appraised or fair value established at the date of contribution. The carrying amounts of assets and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts when such assets are disposed of and any resulting gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of buildings, building improvements, and fixed equipment is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation of movable equipment is recorded using the sum-of-the-years-digits method. Equipment under capital lease obligations and leasehold

improvements is amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. Such amortization is included in depreciation and amortization in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Financing Costs: Capitalized financing costs are included as a deduction to long- term debt in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position and are amortized using the effective interest method over the term that the related debt is expected to be outstanding.

Classification of Net Assets: The Hospital separately accounts for and reports donor restricted and unrestricted net assets. Unrestricted net assets are not externally restricted for identified purposes by donors or grantors. Unrestricted net assets include resources that the governing board may use for any designated purpose and resources whose use is limited by agreement between the Hospital and an outside party other than the donor or grantor.

Temporarily restricted net assets are those whose use by the Hospital has been limited by donors to a specific time frame or purpose. When donor restrictions expire, that is, when a time restriction ends or a purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported as net assets released from restrictions. Permanently restricted net assets have been restricted by donors to be maintained in perpetuity.

Net Patient Service Revenue: Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net realizable amounts from patients, third-party payors and others for services rendered and includes estimated retroactive revenue adjustments due to ongoing and future audits, reviews and investigations. Retroactive adjustments are considered in the recognition of revenue on an estimated basis in the period the related services are rendered and are adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known or as years are no longer subject to such audits, reviews and investigations.

Operating Leases: Scheduled base rent increases under operating leases are recognized as rental expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Program Services: The Hospital’s program services consist of providing health care and related services, including graduate medical education. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, expenses related to providing these services are summarized as follows (in thousands):

2015 2014 (As Adjusted)

Health care and related services $ 4,583,304 $ 4,093,896 Program support and general services 1,118,521 942,968 $ 5,701,825 $ 5,036,864

The Hospital maintains academic affiliations with two medical colleges: The Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons and the Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College of Cornell University (collectively, the Schools). Transactions occur on a routine basis between the Hospital and the Schools, based upon arrangements between the parties. Performance Indicator: The accompanying consolidated statements of operations include excess of revenues over expenses as the performance indicator. Excluded from the performance indicator are permanent transfers of assets to or from related entities, net assets released from restrictions for the purchase of fixed assets and change in pension and postretirement benefit liabilities to be recognized in future periods. Transactions deemed by management to be ongoing, major or central to the provision of health care services are reported as operating revenues and operating expenses and included in operating income. Investment return and certain transactions of an infrequent nature are excluded from operating income.

Tax Status: The majority of the entities comprising the Hospital are Section 501(c)(3) organizations exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. These entities also are exempt from New York State income taxes. NYPH and NYP/Queens are exempt from New York City income taxes.

There are various subsidiaries of the Hospital that are for-profit entities. Taxable operations and the potential for income taxes from these entities are not significant to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 supersedes the FASB’s current revenue recognition requirements and most industry-specific guidance. The FASB subsequently issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which deferred the effective dates of ASU 2014-09. Based on ASU 2015-04, the provisions of ASU 2014-09 are effective for the Hospital for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Hospital has not completed the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern, that will require management of public and nonpublic companies to evaluate and disclose where there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The standard is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Hospital does not believe this standard will have a significant effect on its financial reporting.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. ASU 2015-03 requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the statements of financial position as a direct deduction from the corresponding debt liability rather than as an asset. This change will make the presentation of debt issuance costs consistent with the presentation of debt discounts or premiums. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs is not affected. The provisions of ASU 2015-03 are effective for the Hospital for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with retrospective application to all periods presented. Early application is permitted. The Hospital has adopted ASU 2015-03 for the year ended December 31, 2015. As a result, approximately $60.5 million of net deferred financing costs at December 31, 2015 ($35.3 million at December 31, 2014) are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position as a component of long-term debt (see Note 5).

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value Per Share (or its Equivalent). ASU 2015-07 removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy investments for which fair values are estimated using the net asset value practical expedient provided by Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurement. Disclosures about investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share are limited under ASU 2015-07 to those investments for which the entity has elected to estimate the fair value using the net asset value practical expedient. ASU 2015-07 is effective for the Hospital for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, with retrospective application to all periods presented. Early application is permitted. The Hospital has adopted ASU 2015-07 for the year ended December 31, 2015. As a result, approximately $979.9 million of defined benefit pension plan assets measured at net asset value at December 31, 2015 ($884.5 million at December 31, 2014) are not categorized within the fair value hierarchy in Note 13.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal- Use Software. The ASU requires the Hospital to determine whether a software contracting arrangement contains a software license element. If so, the related fees paid are accounted for consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses; if not, the arrangement is accounted for as a service contract. The provisions of ASU 2015-05 are effective for the Hospital for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. An entity adopting the ASU may apply it either prospectively to new cloud computing arrangements or retrospectively. The Hospital has elected to adopt ASU 2015-05 prospectively as of January 1, 2016 and, therefore, it has no effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which will require lessees to report most leases on their statements of financial position, but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current accounting. The guidance also eliminates current real estate-specific provisions. Lessors in operating leases continue to recognize the underlying asset and recognize lease income on either a straight-line basis or another systematic and rational basis. The provisions of ASU 2016-02 are effective for the Hospital for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods in the following year. Early adoption is permitted. The Hospital has not completed the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements.

2. Net Patient Service Revenue

Net Patient Service Revenue and Accounts Receivable

The Hospital recognizes patient service revenue associated with services provided to patients who have third-party payor coverage on the basis of contractual or formula-driven rates for the services rendered (see description of third-party payor payment programs below). For uninsured and under-insured patients who do not qualify for charity care, the Hospital recognizes revenue on the basis of charges. Under the charity care policy, a patient who has no insurance or is under- insured and is ineligible for any government assistance program has his or her bill reduced to (1) the lesser of charges or the Medicaid diagnostic-related group for inpatient and (2) a discount from rates of the highest volume commercial payor for outpatient. The effect of this policy on the consolidated financial statements is lower net patient service revenue, as the discount is considered an allowance.

Patient service revenue for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, net of contractual allowances and discounts (but before the provision for bad debts), recognized from these major payor sources based on primary insurance designation, is as follows (in thousands):

Third-party payors $ 5,642,293 $ 4,948,306 Self-pay 97,151 95,279 $ 5,739,444 $ 5,043,585

Accounts receivable is recorded at its expected net realizable value. In evaluating the collectibility of accounts receivable, the Hospital analyzes its past history and identifies trends for each of its major payor sources of revenue to estimate the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts and provision for bad debts. Management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The allowance for doubtful accounts for self-pay patients was approximately 44% and 47% of self-pay accounts receivable as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Hospital did not experience significant changes in write-off trends and did not change its charity care policy in 2015 or 2014.

Third-Party Payment Programs

The Hospital has agreements with third-party payors that provide for payment for services rendered at amounts different from its established rates. A summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors follows:

Medicare Reimbursement: Hospitals are paid for most Medicare patient services under national prospective payment systems and other methodologies of the Medicare program for certain other services. Federal regulations provide for adjustments to current and prior years’ payment rates, based on industry-wide and Hospital-specific data.

Non-Medicare Reimbursement: In New York State, hospitals and all non-Medicare payors (including Medicare and Medicaid managed care plans), except Medicaid, workers’ compensation and no-fault insurance programs, negotiate hospitals’ payment rates. If negotiated rates are not established, payors are billed at hospitals’ established charges. Medicaid, workers’ compensation and no-fault payors pay hospital rates promulgated by the New York State Department of Health. Payments to hospitals for Medicaid, workers’ compensation and no-fault inpatient services are based on a statewide prospective payment system, with retroactive adjustments. Outpatient services also are paid based on a statewide prospective system. Medicaid rate methodologies are subject to approval at the Federal level by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), which may routinely request information about such methodologies prior to approval. Revenue related to specific rate components that have not been approved by CMS is not recognized until the Hospital is reasonably assured that such amounts are realizable. Adjustments to the current and prior years’ payment rates for those payors will continue to be made in future years.

The Hospital has established estimates, based on information presently available, of amounts due to or from Medicare and non-Medicare payors for adjustments to current and prior years’ payment rates, based on industry-wide and Hospital-specific data. Medicare cost reports, which serve as the basis for final settlement with the Medicare program, have been audited by the Medicare fiscal intermediary and settled through 2001 for NYPH, 2008 for the NYP/Lower Manhattan Hospital campus, 2012 for NYP/Lawrence Hospital, 2013 for NYP/Hudson Valley and 2008 for NYP/Queens. Other years and various issues remain open for audit and settlement, as are numerous issues related to the New York State Medicaid program for prior years. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount when open years are settled, audits are completed and additional information is obtained.

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued)

The current Medicaid, Medicare and other third-party payor programs are based upon extremely complex laws and regulations that are subject to interpretation. Non-compliance with such laws and regulations could result in fines, penalties and exclusion from such programs. The Hospital is not aware of any allegations of non-compliance that could have a material adverse effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements and believe that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. During 2015 and 2014, the Hospital revised estimates made in prior years to reflect the passage of time and the availability of more recent information, such as settlement activity, associated with the related payment items. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the net effect of the Hospital’s revisions to prior year estimates resulted in net patient service revenue increasing by approximately $27.5 million and $63.0 million, respectively. There are various proposals at the federal and state levels that could, among other things, significantly reduce payment rates or modify payment methods. The ultimate outcome of these proposals and other market changes, including the potential effects of health care reform that has been enacted by the federal government, cannot be determined presently. Future changes in the Medicare and Medicaid programs and any reduction of funding could have an adverse impact on the Hospital. Additionally, certain payors’ payment rates for various years have been appealed by the Hospital. If the appeals are successful, additional income applicable to those years could be realized.

The Hospital grants credit without collateral to its patients, most of whom are insured under third-party payor agreements. Significant concentrations of patient accounts receivable at December 31, 2015 and 2014, are as follows:

2015 2014 (As Adjusted)

Medicare 19% 18% Medicaid 16 17 Commercial carriers and health maintenance organizations 55 54 Self-pay patients 10 11 100% 100%

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued)

Revenue from the Medicare and Medicaid programs accounted for approximately 47% and 54% of the Hospital’s net patient service revenue for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Uncompensated Care and Community Benefit Expense

The Hospital’s commitment to community service is evidenced by services provided to special populations such as minorities, the elderly, persons with disabilities, the mentally ill, persons with AIDS and poor persons (Special Populations) and benefits provided to the broader community. Services provided to such Special Populations include services provided to persons who cannot afford health care because of inadequate resources and who are uninsured or underinsured.

The Hospital provides quality medical care regardless of race, creed, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, handicap, age or ability to pay. Although reimbursement for services rendered is critical to the operations and stability of the Hospital, the Hospital recognizes that not all individuals have the ability to pay for medically necessary services and, furthermore, the Hospital’s mission is to serve the community with respect to health care. Therefore, in keeping with the Hospital’s commitment to serve members of the community, the Hospital provides uncompensated care through: medical care to the indigent for free or discounted prices (charity care/financial aid) and care to persons covered by governmental programs that pay the Hospital less than the full cost of services provided. In addition, the Hospital provides significant community benefit activities which include wellness programs, community education programs, health screenings and a broad variety of community support services, health professionals’ education, school based programs, and subsidized health services.

The Hospital believes it is important to quantify comprehensively the benefits it provides to the community, which is an area of emphasis for not-for-profit health care providers. The costs of uncompensated care and community benefit activities are derived from various Hospital records. Amounts for activities as reported below are based on estimated and actual data, subject to changes in estimates upon the finalization of the Hospital’s cost report and other government filings. The amounts reported below are calculated in accordance with guidelines prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS); 2014 estimates have been updated to reflect actual amounts. The net cost of charity care includes the direct and indirect cost of providing charity care services, offset by revenues received from indigent care pools and other subsidies. The cost is estimated by utilizing a ratio of cost to gross charges applied to the gross uncompensated charges

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued) associated with providing charity care. Funds received to offset bad debt and charity services totaled approximately $51.7 million and $62.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, including approximately $49.5 million and $58.1 million, respectively, from the indigent care pool under the New York State Medicaid program. The charity care component of the indigent care pool payments (approximately 55% for 2015 and 66% for 2014) is estimated utilizing a ratio of charity care charges to total charity care and bad debt charges applied to the indigent care pool reimbursement.

Costs related to uncompensated care and community benefit activities are summarized for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 as follows (in thousands):

2015 2014

Charity care, net(a) $ 40,378 $ 37,307 Means-tested programs(b) 365,251 330,756 Other community benefits(c)(d) 435,683 369,771 Total charity care and other community benefits $ 841,312 $ 737,834

Charity care, at cost, and means-tested programs include the following (and exclude losses incurred on providing services to Medicare patients):

(a) Charity Care: As part of its charity care and financial aid policy, the Hospital obtains and uses additional financial information for uninsured or under-insured patients who have not supplied the requisite information to qualify for charity care. The additional information obtained is used by the Hospital to determine whether to qualify patients for charity care and/or financial aid in accordance with the Hospital’s policies. The Hospital makes available free care programs for qualifying patients under its charity care and financial aid policy. During the registration, billing and collection process, a patient’s eligibility for free care funds is determined. For patients who do not receive free care and who are determined to be eligible for charity care in the form of discounted medical services under the Hospital’s charity care and financial aid policy, care given but not paid for is classified as charity care. For patients who were determined by the Hospital to have the ability to pay but did not, the uncollected amounts are classified as provision for bad debt (approximately $119.3 million in 2015 and $70.9 million in 2014). Distinguishing between bad debt and charity care is difficult, in part because services are often rendered prior to full evaluation of a patient’s ability to pay.

28 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued)

Annually, the Hospital accrues for potential losses that meet the definition of charity care (including free and discounted medical care) allowances.

(b) Means-Tested Programs: Community benefits include losses incurred in providing services to patients who participate in certain public health programs such as Medicaid. Payments received by the Hospital for patient services provided to Medicaid program participants are less than the actual cost of providing such services. Therefore, to the extent Medicaid payments are less than the cost of care provided to Medicaid patients, the uncompensated cost of that care is considered to be a community benefit.

Other community benefits include the following:

(c) Community Health Improvement Services and Community Benefit Operations: The Hospital is committed to serving the vast array of neighborhoods comprising its service area and recognizes the importance of preserving a local community focus to effectively meet community need. The Hospital adheres to a single standard for assessing and meeting community need, while retaining a geographically focused approach for soliciting community participation and involvement and providing community outreach.

The Hospital has fostered continued community participation and outreach activities through linkages with numerous community-based groups. Community health improvement services and related operations include clinical services, screening and exams, and other education or support services in areas such as the following: asthma, behavioral health, cancer, children’s health, community-based outreach and health education, digestive diseases, emergency services/emergency preparedness, heart disease, HIV/AIDS, neuroscience, vascular disease and women’s health (a complete description of each service can be found in the Hospital’s annual community service plan).

(d) Health Professions Education: Helping to prepare future health care professionals is a distinguishing characteristic of major academic not-for-profit teaching hospitals and constitutes a significant community benefit. The Hospital has a world renowned residency program and trains approximately 1,700 residents each year in all clinical programs (the programs are in two medical schools and cover 147 accredited graduate medical education programs). The Hospital is committed to offering quality graduate medical education programs as part of its education mission.

5. Long-Term Debt (continued)

(a) The New York and Presbyterian Hospital Taxable Bonds, Series 2015: In February 2015, NYPH issued $750.0 million in unsecured, taxable bonds. The bonds bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.02%, payable semi-annually. The bonds have a final maturity date of August 1, 2045, at which time the full principal balance will be repaid. NYPH is the only member of the obligated group for this debt. NYPH incurred approximately $29.8 million of financing costs in connection with the issuance of the bonds that will be amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bond proceeds that have not been expended are included in assets limited as to use.

(b) FHA Section 242 Insured Mortgage Loan – 1998: NYPH’s original mortgage agreement with the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (DASNY) is insured under the provisions of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Housing Agency (FHA) Section 242 mortgage insurance program. During 2005, NYPH received $8.4 million from DASNY in relation to a release of assets held by DASNY in reserve under the mortgage note and recorded the receipts as an increase to NYPH’s deferred revenue balance in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position. The deferred revenue is being amortized over the remaining life of the mortgage using the effective interest method.

In August 2009, NYPH completed the final endorsement of the FHA Section 242 Insured Mortgage Loan – 1998. The remaining amortization schedule was finalized with principal and interest payments due through July 1, 2025. The terms of the mortgage were amended and, effective September 1, 2009, interest was to be paid at a fixed annual rate of 5.99% of the unpaid balance until the loan was fully paid. As a result of the final endorsement, DASNY released to NYPH an additional $40.8 million of unused proceeds from the initial mortgage loan and NYPH received approximately $2.9 million from the IRS related to prior years’ bond proceeds arbitrage, all used for certain capital projects and as additional equity for the December 2010 transaction (see below). Additionally, the final endorsement resulted in NYPH’s debt escrow fund (approximately $12.5 million at final endorsement) being released for partial payment of the debt obligation at various future intervals.

In December 2010, DASNY assigned NYPH’s mortgage to Prudential Huntoon Paige Associates, Ltd. (Prudential). In connection therewith, DASNY bonds were defeased and Prudential issued new Government National Mortgage Association bonds to fund the mortgage loan. This transaction resulted in a reduction in the interest rate of the mortgage

5. Long-Term Debt (continued)

loan, effective December 15, 2010, to a fixed rate of 4.22% over the remaining term and required NYPH to make an equity contribution of $23.8 million ($15.1 million of the equity contribution was made, with the remaining balance of amounts held in assets limited as to use as part of the final endorsement). The equity contribution is being amortized over the remaining life of the mortgage using the effective interest method and has a balance that is a reduction to long-term debt, net of accumulated amortization, of approximately $10.4 million and $12.5 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. All other material terms of the mortgage remained the same.

(c) FHA Section 242 Insured Mortgage Loans – 2004: NYPH had two mortgage loans, with identical terms most recently amended in 2004, issued through DASNY. The two mortgage loans were insured under the provisions of the FHA Section 242 mortgage insurance program. The mortgage loans were payable monthly through April 2015 and carried an interest rate of 7.5%. In connection with a 1998 revision to one of the original mortgage notes, deferred revenue with an initial balance of $29.5 million was recognized, reflecting the present value of the interest rate savings that were advanced to NYPH upon creation of the 1998 mortgage. The deferred revenue was fully amortized as of April 2015. (d) FHA Section 241 Insured Mortgage Loan – 2007: In September 2007, DASNY issued $296.1 million of The New York and Presbyterian Hospital FHA-Insured Mortgage Hospital Revenue Bonds, Series 2007. A portion of the proceeds of the bonds was used to fund a mortgage loan from DASNY to NYPH. The maximum principal amount of $278.5 million incorporated a discount of $5.4 million. The mortgage is insured under the provisions of the FHA Section 241 mortgage insurance program. The mortgage bore interest at a rate of 6.5% through May 31, 2010 and 4.9% through July 31, 2012 (in addition, NYPH paid an incremental rate of 1.6% until final endorsement). On August 7, 2012, NYPH completed final endorsement and the terms of the mortgage were amended and, effective August 1, 2012, interest was to be paid at a rate of 4.55%. The remaining amortization schedule was finalized, with principal and interest payments through June 1, 2035. In addition, the final endorsement resulted in the termination of NYPH’s letter of credit with a bank that provided security for equity contributions required under the plan of financing.

5. Long-Term Debt (continued)

In December 2012, DASNY assigned NYPH’s mortgage loan to Prudential. In connection therewith, the DASNY bonds were refunded and Prudential issued new Government National Mortgage Association securities to fund NYPH’s mortgage. This transaction resulted in a reduction in the interest rate on the mortgage loan to a fixed rate of 2.74% over the remaining term of the loan, effective December 13, 2012. All other material terms of the mortgage remained the same.

(e) Secured Hospital Revenue Refunding Bonds – 2011: In March 2011, NewYork- Presbyterian/Lower Manhattan Hospital (NYP/LMH) issued $32.6 million of Secured Hospital Revenue Refunding Bonds – 2011 through DASNY. The bonds bear interest at a fixed interest rate of 5%, payable semi-annually, with a final maturity date of February 15, 2022. NYP/LMH has granted to DASNY, with certain permitted exceptions, a security interest in gross receipts and certain fixtures, furnishings and equipment that secure the payment of the debt. The bonds are further secured by amounts, if required, that would be payable under a service contract between DASNY and the State of New York.

(f) FHA Section 241 Insured Mortgage Loan – 2013: In September 2013, NYPH executed a $500.0 million mortgage note with Prudential. The mortgage note bears interest at a fixed interest rate of 4.5%, payable semi-annually. The loan has a final maturity of September 1, 2038, principal payable annually. The proceeds of the loan were issued to a construction escrow account and are to be used to construct an ambulatory care center and for related costs (see Note 3). NYPH incurred approximately $8.5 million of financing costs in connection with the issuance of the loan that will be amortized over the life of the loan.

(g) Series 1998 Bonds Payable: In June 1998 and December 1998, on behalf of NYP/Lawrence, the County of Westchester Industrial Development Agency issued $10.7 million of Series 1998A bonds and $10.8 million of Series 1998B bonds. The Series 1998A bonds mature at varying dates through January 1, 2018, with fixed interest rates ranging from 3.80% to 5.13% payable semiannually. The Series 1998B bonds mature at varying dates through January 1, 2028, with fixed interest rates ranging from 4.20% to 5.00% payable semiannually.

(h) Term Loan Payable: In September 2013, Lawrence signed a term loan agreement with TD Bank, NA. The initial principal amount of the loan was $25.7 million to be used for the construction of a new three-story building to house a new surgery and oncology center and a six-room operating suite on Lawrence’s property. The loan is payable over 144 months. Interest is charged on the amount outstanding at a fixed rate of 4.29% per annum.

5. Long-Term Debt (continued)

(i) FHA Section 242 Insured Mortgage Loan – 1993: In October 1993, Hudson Valley entered into a mortgage note to borrow $22.7 million. The mortgage note is insured under the provisions of the FHA Section 242 mortgage insurance program and is secured by substantially all of the property, buildings, equipment and gross receipts of Hudson Valley. The proceeds of the mortgage were used to finance an expansion and renovation project at Hudson Valley. The mortgage note called for monthly payments of principal and interest at 6.35% and was scheduled to mature in November 2020. On August 6, 2007, the mortgage note was modified to reduce the interest rate to 5.38% and accelerate the maturity date to October 1, 2019. In 2011, DASNY assigned the mortgage to Prudential. This transaction resulted in a reduction in the interest rate of the mortgage loan, effective August 1, 2011, to a fixed interest rate of 2.6% over the remaining term. All other material terms of the mortgage remained the same.

(j) FHA Section 241 Insured Mortgage Loan – 2007: In October 2007, Hudson Valley entered into a supplemental mortgage note with DASNY to borrow up to $71.7 million. The supplemental mortgage note is insured by the FHA under the provisions of the Section 241 mortgage insurance program. The supplemental loan is a second mortgage to Hudson Valley’s Section 242 loan described in (i) above. The supplemental mortgage note called for payments of interest only, at the rate of 6.2%, through February 28, 2010. Commencing March 1, 2010, the interest rate was reduced to 5.0% and the note calls for monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $0.4 million through March 1, 2035.

(k) FHA Section 241 Insured Mortgage Loan – 1999: In August 1999, Queens entered into a mortgage agreement with DASNY. The mortgage is insured by the FHA under the provisions of the Section 241 mortgage insurance program. The loan is secured by a first mortgage lien on certain real and personal property of NYP/Queens. Effective December 7, 2006, the loan was subject to a fixed interest rate of 5.6%. In 2007, the loan was final endorsed by the FHA, at which time the remaining amortization schedule was finalized with principal payments due through October 2026. In December 2010, the DASNY bonds underlying the loan were defeased and Prudential issued new Government National Mortgage Association securities. In connection therewith, DASNY assigned Queens’ mortgage to Prudential. The transaction resulted in a reduction in the interest rate of the mortgage loan, effective December 2, 2010, to a fixed rate of 4.1% over the remaining term. All other material terms of the mortgage remained the same.

(l) FHA Section 241 Insured Mortgage Loan – 2007: In February 2007, DASNY issued $188.7 million of The New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens FHA-Insured Mortgage Hospital Revenue Bonds, Series 2007, a portion of the proceeds of which were used to provide a mortgage loan, insured by the FHA under Section 241 of the mortgage insurance program, to Queens in the maximum principal amount of $175.0 million. The loan is secured by a second mortgage lien on certain real and personal property of Queens, including the facilities constructed with the proceeds of the loan. The mortgage bore interest at a rate of 6.2% through July 31, 2010. Commencing September 1, 2010, the mortgage requires monthly principal and interest payments through August 2035 at an interest rate not to exceed 4.95% (the interest rate will be determined upon final endorsement).

Estimated principal payments under all long-term debt (reflective of amounts obligated to date) for the next five years and thereafter, excluding capital leases, consist of the following (in thousands):

2016 $ 58,092 2017 60,038 2018 62,576 2019 64,101 2020 65,497 Thereafter 1,683,419

Pursuant to debt agreements, NYPH, NYP/Lawrence Hospital, NYP/Hudson Valley and NYP/Queens are required to maintain certain debt service funds, including mortgage reserve funds. In addition, NYPH, NYP/Lawrence Hospital, NYP/Hudson Valley and NYP/Queens are required to maintain certain working capital, debt service coverage and other financial ratios and financial conditions, and to obtain approvals to incur additional debt above specified levels if certain covenant requirements are not met. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, NYPH, NYP/Hudson Valley and NYP/Queens were in compliance with the financial covenants. At December 31, 2014, NYP/Lawrence was in compliance with the financial covenants. As of December 31, 2015, NYP/Lawrence was not in compliance with certain of the financial covenants of the Series 1998A and 1998B bonds. This noncompliance provides the trustee for the bonds with the ability to accelerate the repayment terms. In April 2016, Lawrence obtained a commitment from a commercial bank to refinance the Series 1998A and 1998B bonds over a

Accordingly, the principal payments due for the Series 1998A and 1998B bonds are classified in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position at December 31, 2015 based on the scheduled maturity of the related bonds. NYP/Lawrence expects to fully repay the bonds in May 2016. At December 31, 2015, NYP/Lawrence was not in compliance with certain of the financial covenants of its term loan agreement. NYP/Lawrence received a letter from the commercial bank which waived compliance with certain financial covenants for all measurement periods during the year ended December 31, 2015. The commercial bank also committed to not accelerate repayment of the debt prior to January 1, 2017 should similar instances of noncompliance continue at any measurement period during the year ending December 31, 2016. Accordingly, principal payments required under the loan are classified in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position based on the scheduled repayment terms.

The mortgages are collateralized by substantially all of NYPH’s, NYP/Lawrence Hospital’s, NYP/Hudson Valley’s and NYP/Queens’ property, buildings and equipment and gross receipts derived from operations.

(m) Capital Leases: Certain equipment leases are the equivalent of an installment purchase for purposes of financial statement reporting. The lenders hold a first security interest in the financed equipment. NYPH has entered into several capital lease financing agreements with commercial lenders in conjunction with DASNY’s tax-exempt lease program. The total amount outstanding related to the tax-exempt lease program is approximately $3.1 million and $6.4 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Hospital entered into several other capital leases in 2015 and 2014, totaling approximately $28.2 million and $13.4 million, respectively. Interest rates related to the Hospital’s outstanding capital lease obligations range from 0.0% to 6.5%.

Interest paid under all borrowings for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 aggregated approximately $77.0 million and $56.7 million, respectively.

NYPH has a $100.0 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a bank which expires on June 30, 2016. Through 2014, NYP/Lawrence Hospital had a $5.0 million revolving loan agreement with TD Bank, N.A. During 2015, the available amount for the line of credit was reduced to $4.1 million. The line of credit is renewable annually. Effective October 2014, NYP/Queens entered into a $10.0 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a bank. NYP/Queens borrowed and repaid $1.0 million on the line of credit during the year ended December 31, 2015. There is no outstanding balance as of December 31, 2015. In connection with the line of credit, NYP/Queens is required to maintain a $2.5 million account with the bank. As a result, approximately $2.5 million is included within funds held under debt agreements in assets limited as to use in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position at December 31, 2015.

There were no other borrowings on the lines of credit during 2015 or 2014.

7. Beneficial Interest in Net Assets Held by Related Organizations (continued)

Permanently restricted net assets that are included in the beneficial interest in net assets held by related organizations represent endowments that have been restricted by donors to be maintained in perpetuity and are held by Fund, Inc. and WCMC Fund on behalf of the Hospital. The Hospital follows the requirements of the New York Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (NYPMIFA) as they relate to its permanently restricted contributions and net assets.

The Hospital has interpreted NYPMIFA as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment fund, absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. The Hospital classifies as permanently restricted net assets the original value of the gifts donated to the permanent endowment and the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment. Accumulations to the permanent endowment are used in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift. The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is classified as temporarily restricted net assets until the amounts are appropriated for expenditure in accordance with a standard of prudence prescribed by NYPMIFA. The Hospital considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds: (i) the duration and preservation of the fund; (ii) the purposes of the Hospital and the donor-restricted endowment fund; (iii) general economic conditions; (iv) the possible effects of inflation and deflation; (v) where appropriate and circumstances would otherwise warrant, alternatives to expenditure of the endowment fund, giving due consideration to the effect that such alternatives may have on the Hospital; (vi) the expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments; (vii) other resources of the Hospital and (viii) the investment and spending policies of the Hospital. Fund, Inc.’s endowment investment returns distribution policy, which applies to the Hospital, allows for expenditures of investment return only, at a rate not to exceed 4.5% of the permanently restricted net asset balance on an annual basis.

The Hospital has adopted investment and spending policies for endowment assets that attempt to provide a predictable stream of funding related to the endowment funds, while seeking to maintain the purchasing power of the funds. To satisfy long-term return objectives, the Hospital relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The Hospital employs a long-term equity oriented strategy of investing in both traditional and alternative asset classes.

8. Insurance

Professional Liability Insurance: In 1978, NYPH, in conjunction with a number of unrelated health care entities, participated in the formation of captive insurance companies (collectively, the Captive) to provide professional liability and general liability insurance to its participants. The premiums are based on a modified claims-made coverage and are actuarially determined based on the actual experience of the Captive, NYPH-specific experience, and estimated current exposure. The Captive has reinsurance coverage from reinsurers for certain amounts above its coverage level per claim limits. In January 1996, rights to equity in the Captive were transferred to Fund, Inc. Accordingly, insurance premiums are paid by the Hospital initially to Fund, Inc. (see Note 10).

Effective July 1, 2013, NYP/LMH is insured by the Captive. Prior to July 1, 2013, NYP/LMH was covered by various self-insured, claims-made and excess insurance policies.

Effective August 1, 2014, NYP/Lawrence is insured by the Captive. Effective November 15, 1998, NYP/Lawrence and certain other member hospitals of Stellaris Health Network (Stellaris), NYP/Lawrence’s former active parent, participated in a combined insurance program that provided coverage through purchased primary and excess insurance on a claims-made basis. Effective January 1, 2004, NYP/Lawrence purchased excess professional liability insurance above its primary placement layer on a claims-made basis with a prepaid tail liability endorsement from a captive insurance company formed by Stellaris, NWLP Insurance Company Ltd. (NWLP). Effective June 30, 2014, NWLP implemented a segregated “cell captive” structure which replaced the previous insurance structure. Under this program, NWLP utilizes individual cells for each participating hospital, under which invested assets and insurance-related liabilities are segregated for each participant and there is no shared risk among the entities. NYP/Lawrence’s investments under the cell captive structure and the related changes in its segregated account as reported by NWLP are recorded in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, investments held by NWLP totaling approximately $26.9 million and $26.6 million are included in assets limited as to use in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position, respectively (see Note 3). Effective October 1, 2014, the NWLP prepaid tail liability endorsement was removed.

Effective February 1, 2015, NYP/Hudson Valley is insured by the Captive. Prior to February 1, 2015, NYP/Hudson Valley maintained a commercial claims-made policy for its medical malpractice insurance.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

8. Insurance (continued)

For the period March 1977 through September 1997, NYP/Queens was self-insured for its professional liabilities. Effective June 1996, NYP/Queens purchased occurrence-based commercial excess professional liability insurance. Effective September 1997 through September 16, 2004, NYP/Queens purchased primary professional liability insurance from a commercial carrier and excess professional liability insurance from Network Insurance Company Ltd. (NICL), a related company that is an offshore captive insurance company. For the period from September 17, 2002 through September 16, 2004, NYP/Queens was self-insured for liabilities above the capped limit. Effective September 17, 2004, NYP/Queens discontinued its primary and first excess arrangements and became self-insured for these exposure levels. The second excess coverage continues to be maintained with a commercial carrier. Effective December 1, 2015, NYP/Queens is insured by the Captive.

Exposure for claims that occurred prior to NYP/Lawrence, NYP/Hudson Valley and NYP/Queens being insured by the Captive is retained by each hospital and will be paid under a deposit program with the Captive (assets totaling $6.0 million that are on deposit with the Captive at December 31, 2015 are reported within professional liabilities insurance recoveries receivable and related deposit in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position).

The Hospital’s undiscounted estimate for professional liabilities and the estimate for incidents that have been incurred but not reported aggregated approximately $555.3 million and $525.1 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and is included in professional liabilities in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position at the actuarially determined present value of approximately $507.4 million and $477.8 million, respectively, based on a discount rate of 3.0% (2.5% for Queens) and 3.0% (2.0% for Queens) for each of the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively (the NYP/LMH self-insured liability of approximately $17.1 million and $19.8 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, is undiscounted). The Hospital has recorded related insurance recoveries receivable of approximately $267.4 million and $244.9 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, in consideration of the expected insurance recoveries for the total discounted modified claims- made insurance. Funded amounts (approximately $89.8 million and $100.6 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, aside from the investments held in the segregated cell) have been placed in a separate account and are included in assets limited as to use in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position. The current portion of professional liabilities and the related insurance recoveries receivable represents an estimate of expected settlements and insurance recoveries over the next 12 months.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

8. Insurance (continued)

The Hospital’s estimates for professional liabilities are based upon complex actuarial calculations which utilize factors such as historical claims experience for the Hospital and related industry factors, trending models, estimates for the payment patterns of future claims and present value discount factors. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in the near term. Revisions to estimated amounts resulting from actual experience differing from projected expectations are recorded in the period the information becomes known or when changes are anticipated.

Workers’ Compensation Insurance: Prior to April 1, 1999, NYPH was self-insured for workers’ compensation claims. Since April 1, 1999, NYPH has purchased insurance through the New York State Insurance Fund in a program that effectively transfers risk from NYPH. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the estimate for all recorded workers’ compensation claims and incurred but not reported liabilities aggregated approximately $11.2 million and $9.0 million, respectively, and is included in professional liabilities in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position.

In connection with the workers’ compensation self-insurance programs, the Hospital maintains two letters of credit through banks in the aggregate amount of approximately $13.2 million, which satisfies the collateral deposit requirement.

9. Pension and Similar Benefit Plans

Pension Plans: The Hospital provides pension and similar benefits to its employees through several plans, including various multiemployer plans for union employees (see Note 14), a qualified noncontributory defined benefit plan primarily for eligible non-union employees of NYPH (the Qualified Pension Plan), a defined benefit retirement plan under a collective bargaining agreement for certain employees of NYP/LMH (the NYP/LMH Pension Plan), a non- contributory defined benefit retirement plan for eligible NYP/Lawrence employees (the Lawrence Pension Plan), a nonqualified defined benefit plan for certain NYPH executives (the Nonqualified Pension Plan), a nonqualified defined benefit plan for certain Lawrence executives (the Lawrence Nonqualified Pension Plan) and a defined benefit plan for union and nonunion employees of NYP/Queens that was frozen for future benefit accruals in 2003 (the Queens Pension Plan) (the non-multiemployer plans are collectively referred to as the Pension Plans).

48 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

9. Pension and Similar Benefit Plans (continued)

Through December 31, 2008, NYPH also provided pension and similar benefits to certain employees through a defined contribution plan. The employees who participated in the defined contribution plan became participants of the qualified defined benefit plan effective December 31, 2008, in a change that responded to certain regulatory requirements. Nonunion employees of NYP/Queens are covered under a defined contribution plan to which contributions are made quarterly. The Hospital also sponsors several non-contributory defined contribution plans.

The Hospital funds the noncontributory defined benefit plans in accordance with the minimum funding requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), plus additional amounts that the Hospital may deem appropriate from time to time. Amounts contributed to the Pension Plans are based on actuarial valuations.

The benefits for participants or their beneficiaries in the Pension Plans sponsored by the Hospital are based on years of service and employees’ compensation during their years of employment.

Postretirement Benefits: The Hospital provides certain health care and life insurance benefits to its retired non-union employees through several plans (the Postretirement Benefit Plans).

The Hospital recognizes in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position an asset, for a defined benefit postretirement plan’s overfunded status, or a liability, for a plan’s underfunded status; measures a defined benefit postretirement plan’s assets and obligations that determine funded status as of the end of the fiscal year; and recognizes the periodic change in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as a component of changes in unrestricted net assets in the year in which the change occurs. Amounts that are recognized as a component of changes in unrestricted net assets will be subsequently recognized as net periodic pension and postretirement cost.

The overall expected long-term rate of return on assets of the Pension Plans is based on the historical returns of each asset class weighted by the target asset allocation. The target asset allocation has been selected consistent with the Hospital’s desired risk and return characteristics. The Hospital reviews the expected long-term rate periodically and, based on the building block approach, updates the rate for changes in the marketplace. The market conditions in 2015 and 2014 and changes in the pension asset allocations were considered in the Hospital’s evaluation of the expected long-term rate of return assumption.

In relation to NYPH’s postretirement benefit plan (excluding the postretirement benefit plans for Lawrence and Queens), the weighted-average annual assumed rate of increase per capita cost of covered benefits (i.e., health care cost trend rate) is assumed to start at 6.40% and decrease to 4.50% by 2023. The health care cost trend rate assumption may have an effect on the amounts reported. A one percent change in the assumed health care cost trend rate would have the following effects (in thousands):

The measurement date used to determine the pension and postretirement benefits measurements is December 31.

Plan Assets: The Qualified Pension Plan, the NYP/LMH Pension Plan, the Lawrence Pension Plan and the Queens Pension Plan have separate asset allocation targets. The overall objectives of the investment policies are to produce an asset allocation that will generate return annually in order to meet the expense and income needs and provide for sufficient annual asset growth. Funds are invested with a long-term (five years or greater) return objective.

The investment policies include the following asset allocation guidelines:

The policy target percentages are reevaluated at least quarterly. Investment performance is reviewed quarterly with performance results and benchmarks. NYP/LMH Pension Plan’s weighted-average asset allocations at December 31, 2015 are comprised of investments in equity and fixed income securities. Assets invested in the Pension Plans are carried at fair value. Fixed income and equity securities and real assets with readily determinable values are carried at fair value as determined based on independent published sources. Alternative investments are stated at fair value, as estimated in an unquoted market. Fair value for alternative investments is determined for each investment using net asset values as a practical expedient, as permitted by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, rather than using another valuation method to independently estimate fair value. The composition and reported value of the Pension Plans’ assets at December 31, 2015 and 2014 are disclosed in Note 13. The Hospital expects to contribute approximately $62.0 million to its Pension Plans and $4.1 million to its Postretirement Benefit Plans in 2016. The Medicare Prescription Drug Act introduced a prescription drug benefit under Medicare (Medicare Part D) as well as a Federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. The Hospital expects to pay the following benefit payments, which reflect expected future service as appropriate, and receive the following Medicare Part D subsidies (in thousands):

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of operations are pending or are in progress against the Hospital. Such lawsuits and claims are either specifically covered by insurance or are not deemed material. While the outcome of these lawsuits cannot be determined at this time, management, based on advice from legal counsel, believes that any loss which may arise from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Hospital.

At December 31, 2015 and 2014, approximately 38% of the Hospital’s employees were covered by collective bargaining agreements. Collective bargaining agreements covering all such employees are set to expire at various dates through 2018.

Effective January 1, 2009, the IRS issued final regulations for purposes of determining common control for qualified retirement plans sponsored by tax-exempt organizations. In general, tax- exempt entities that are under common control are treated as one entity for certain of the requirements of qualified plans. The regulations determine control based on facts and circumstances; for this purpose, common control would exist if, among other situations, at least

12. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

80% of the directors or trustees of one organization were either representatives of, or directly or indirectly controlled by, another organization. These regulations could have an effect on the operations of the Hospital’s and its related entities’ retirement plans and the responsibilities of those entities for associated liabilities, although such effects are uncertain at this time.

13. Fair Value Measurements

The Hospital uses various methods of calculating fair value of its financial assets and liabilities, when applicable. The Hospital defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value measurements are applied based on the unit of account from the Hospital’s perspective. The unit of account determines what is being measured by reference to the level at which the asset or liability is aggregated (or disaggregated).

The Hospital uses a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable inputs that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. In determining fair value, the Hospital uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers non-performance risk in its assessment of fair value.

(c) Common collective/commingled trusts invested in corporate bonds and mortgage and asset backed securities. (d) Common collective/commingled trusts invested in common stock of corporations domiciled in the United States and outside the United States, including emerging market countries. (e) Hedge funds include long and short equity, multi-strategy, event driven and relative value funds invested with managers who invest with different strategies and typically employ some leverage. In long and short equity, fund managers create a portfolio of long positions in stocks expected to appreciate over time and short positions in stocks expected to depreciate. Event driven managers create a portfolio designed to profit from corporate events such as mergers, spin-offs, defaults and bankruptcy. Relative value managers invest in long and short positions, but typically have a more neutral net market position than long and short. Multi-strategy is a fund employing a variety of hedge fund strategies. (f) Private equity investments include limited partnership investments in funds pursuing strategies in corporate buyouts, venture capital, growth equity, distressed and turnaround investments. (g) Real estate and natural resources investments.

The following is a description of the Hospital’s valuation methodologies for assets measured at fair value. The fair value methodologies are not necessarily indicators of investment risk, but are descriptive of the measures used to arrive at fair value pricing. Fair value for Level 1 is based upon quoted market prices. Investments classified as Level 2 are primarily valued using techniques that are consistent with the market approach. Valuations for Level 2 are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets. Inputs, which include broker/dealer quotes, reported/comparable trades, and benchmark yields are obtained from various sources including market participants, dealers and brokers. Common collective/commingled trusts and alternative investments are measured at net asset value. The valuation for alternative investments is described in Note 9. The methods described above may produce a fair value that is not indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Hospital believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

The following is a summary of investments (by major class) that have restrictions on the Hospital’s ability to redeem its investments at the measurement date, any unfunded capital commitments and the investments strategies of the investees as of December 31, 2015 (including investments accounted for using the equity method) (in thousands):

Redemption Redemption Description of Fair Unfunded Frequency Notice Investment Value Commitments (If Currently Eligible) Period

* The Hospital’s liquidity restrictions range from several months to ten years for certain private equity and real asset investments. Liquidity restrictions may apply to all or portions of a particular invested amount.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, other current assets and liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Carrying value approximates fair value for other noncurrent financial instruments, excluding long-term debt obligations and financial instruments included in the fair value tables. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the fair value of long-term debt obligations totaled approximately $2,085.2 million and $1,406.7 million, respectively, excluding capital leases and unamortized fair value adjustments (see carrying value of long-term debt at Note 5). The fair value of long-term debt is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, using techniques consistent with the market approach. Valuations for long-term debt, excluding the term loan payable, are based on quoted market prices for related bonds. The carrying amount of the term loan payable approximates fair value based on consideration of current market data and discounted cash flow estimates.

14. Multiemployer Pension Plans

The Hospital contributes to the New York State Nurses Association Pension Plan (NYSNA), the 1199 SEIU Healthcare Employees Pension Fund (1199 SEIU) and the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 30 Pension Fund (Local 30). These are multiemployer defined benefit pension plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover the Hospital’s union-represented employees. Contributions to union plans are based on union employee gross salary levels and rates required under union contractual arrangements.

The risks of participating in these multiemployer plans are different from single-employer plans in the following respects:

• Assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers.

• If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers.

• If the Hospital chooses to stop participating in some of its multiemployer plans, the Hospital may be required to pay those plans an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability.

The Hospital’s participation in these plans for the annual period ended December 31, 2015 is outlined in the table below. The “EIN/Pension Plan Number” column provides the Employee Identification Number (EIN) and the three-digit plan number, if applicable. Unless otherwise noted, the most recent Pension Protection Act (PPA) zone status available in 2015 and 2014 is for the plan’s year-end at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The zone status is based on information that the Hospital received from the plan and is certified by the plan’s actuary. Among other factors, plans in the red zone are generally less than 65% funded, plans in the yellow zone are less than 80% funded and plans in the green zone are at least 80% funded. The “FIP/RP Status” column indicates plans for which a financial improvement plan (FIP) or a rehabilitation plan (RP) is either pending or has been implemented. The last column lists the expiration dates of the collective bargaining agreements to which the plans are subject.

15. Events Subsequent to December 31, 2015

Subsequent events have been evaluated through April 29, 2016, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

Effective January 1, 2016, NYP/Lawrence entered into an agreement (the Commutation Agreement) with NWLP whereby all claims previously recorded under the cell captive structure were fully commuted to the Hospital. In connection with the Commutation Agreement, NWLP initially transferred approximately $12.9 million to the Hospital in February 2016. Also effective January 1, 2016, the Hospital entered into a separate agreement with Stellaris in order to distribute the assets held by NWLP in the Hospital’s segregated cell and other contributed capital. The Hospital received a distribution of approximately $13.3 million in March 2016 with a final distribution of approximately $0.6 million expected later in 2016.

Except as disclosed above, no events have occurred that require disclosure in or adjustment to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Trustees The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of The New York and Presbyterian Hospital, which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited 1

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of The New York and Presbyterian Hospital at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the consolidated results of its operations, changes in its net assets, and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Supplementary Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The consolidating details appearing in conjunction with the consolidated statements of financial position and operations as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statements as a whole.  April 29, 2015

Organization and Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The New York and Presbyterian Hospital (NYPH) and NYP Community Services, Inc. (Community Services), of which NYPH is the sole member. The reporting entity resulting from the consolidation of these entities is referred to herein as the “Hospital.” All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NYPH is a tax-exempt organization that was incorporated under New York State not-for-profit corporation law. NYPH is a major academic medical center, providing a full range of inpatient and outpatient services, mainly to residents of the New York metropolitan area. The Board of Trustees of the NYPH consists of persons who have first been elected as members of New York- Presbyterian Foundation, Inc. (Foundation, Inc.), a New York State not-for-profit corporation. Foundation, Inc. is related to a number of organizations.

On July 1, 2013, New York Downtown Hospital (NYDH) and its controlled affiliates, an entity under common control with NYPH, merged into NYPH, at which time the operating facilities of NYDH became the sixth campus of NYPH, and NYDH was renamed New York- Presbyterian/Lower Manhattan Hospital (referred to herein as NYP/LMH or Lower Manhattan Hospital). This transaction was accounted for similar to a pooling of interests with retrospective adjustment in prior period financial statements for the period in which the entities were under common control. Therefore, the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 reflect the financial position, operations, changes in net assets and cash flows of the Hospital, including NYP/LMH, as if the merger had been completed on September 6, 2012, the date that NYDH and NYPH came under common control.

On July 1, 2014 (the Acquisition Date), Community Services acquired Lawrence Hospital Center and Subsidiaries, consisting of a 291-bed approved acute care hospital located in Bronxville, New York, a certified home health agency, a certified hospice program, a bereavement center, a durable medical equipment company and Lawrence Medical Associates, P.C., a State of New York professional corporation, and renamed it NewYork-Presbyterian/Lawrence Hospital (referred to herein as NYP/Lawrence Hospital or Lawrence). Community Services acquired NYP/Lawrence Hospital by means of an inherent contribution, in which no consideration was transferred by Community Services or NYPH. Community Services accounted for this business combination by applying the acquisition method and, accordingly, the inherent contribution

In determining the inherent contribution received, all assets and liabilities were measured at fair value as of the Acquisition Date. The results of Lawrence’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the Acquisition Date.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of NYP/Lawrence Hospital’s assets and liabilities at the Acquisition Date (in thousands):

Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 19,967 Patient accounts receivable, less allowance for uncollectibles 28,149 Other current assets 6,691 Assets limited as to use 123,905 Property, buildings and equipment – net 91,136 Other noncurrent assets – net 18,404 Total assets 288,252

Liabilities Accounts payable and accrued expenses 15,082 Other current liabilities 15,739 Long-term debt 35,616 Pension liability 71,544 Other noncurrent liabilities 45,309 Total liabilities 183,290

Excess of assets over liabilities $ 104,962

Net assets acquired Unrestricted $ 82,218 Temporarily restricted 18,060 Permanently restricted 4,684 Total net assets $ 104,962

Although NYPH and Community Services have been consolidated for financial statement presentation, there may be limitations on the use of one entity’s funds by another member of the consolidated group resulting from the charitable nature of some of the entities or other factors.

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, such as estimated uncollectibles for accounts receivable for services to patients, valuation of alternative investments, estimated settlements with third-party payors, professional liabilities and pension and postretirement benefit liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates also affect the amounts of revenue and expenses reported during the period. There is at least a reasonable possibility that certain estimates will change by material amounts in the near term.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments: The Hospital classifies as cash equivalents all highly liquid financial instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased, excluding those held in short-term investments and assets limited as to use. Investments that are readily marketable and that are not classified as assets limited as to use are considered short-term investments and are classified as current assets. Short-term investments are used for cash management purposes and consist of cash and cash equivalents, fixed income and equity securities. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Hospital’s cash and cash equivalents include money market funds and interest-bearing accounts that are not fully insured by the U.S. government.

Receivables for Patient Care: Patient accounts receivable for which the Hospital receives payment under cost reimbursement, prospective payment formulae or negotiated rates, which cover the majority of patient services, are stated at the estimated net amounts receivable from payors, which are generally less than the established billing rates of the Hospital. The amount of the allowance for uncollectibles is based on management’s assessment of historical and expected collections, business economic conditions, trends in health care coverage, and other collection indicators. Additions to the allowance for uncollectibles result from the provision for bad debts. Accounts written off as uncollectible are deducted from the allowance for uncollectibles.

Supplies: Supplies, which are determined on the first-in, first-out method, are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Supplies are used in the provision of patient care and are not held for sale.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Investments and Investment Return: All investments (excluding interests in common collective/commingled trusts and alternative investments) are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices and are classified as trading investments. Common collective/commingled trusts are reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position based upon net asset values derived from the application of the equity method of accounting. See Note 9 for a description of the accounting policies related to assets held in the Hospital’s defined benefit pension plans.

Alternative investment interests generally are structured such that the Hospital holds a limited partnership interest or an interest in an investment management company. The Hospital’s ownership structure does not provide for control over the related investees and the Hospital’s financial risk is limited to the carrying amount reported for each investee, in addition to any unfunded capital commitment.

Individual investment holdings within the alternative investments include non-marketable and market-traded debt, equity and real asset securities and interests in other alternative investments. The Hospital may be exposed indirectly to securities lending, short sales of securities and trading in futures and forward contracts, options and other derivative products. Alternative investments often have liquidity restrictions under which the Hospital’s capital may be divested only at specified times.

Alternative investments are reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position based upon net asset values derived from the application of the equity method of accounting. Financial information used by the Hospital to evaluate its alternative investments is provided by the investment manager or general partner and includes fair value valuations (quoted market prices and values determined through other means) of underlying securities and other financial instruments held by the investee, and estimates that require varying degrees of judgment. The financial statements of the investee companies are audited annually by independent auditors, although the timing for reporting the results of such audits does not coincide with the Hospital’s annual financial statement reporting.

13 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

There is uncertainty in the accounting for alternative investments arising from factors such as lack of active markets (primary and secondary), lack of transparency into underlying holdings and time lags associated with reporting by the investee companies. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that estimates will change in the near term.

Investments received as a gift are recorded at fair value on the date of contribution.

All investment transactions are recorded on the dates such trades take place. Realized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities are based on the average cost method. Interest income is recorded as earned. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Investment return is included within the performance indicator in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, unless restricted by donor or law. Investment returns are reported net of investment expenses.

Assets Limited as to Use: Assets so classified represent investments whose use is restricted for specific purposes under internal and/or external designation, terms of loan agreements and for self-insured professional liabilities. Assets limited as to use which are internally designated for funded depreciation represent amounts that will be expended in future periods for acquisitions of property, buildings and equipment. Assets limited as to use required to meet current liabilities and current year pledges receivable held by NYP/Lawrence Hospital are reported as current assets.

Beneficial Interest in Net Assets Held by Related Organizations: The Hospital recognizes its accumulated interest in the net assets held by New York Presbyterian Fund, Inc. (Fund, Inc.) and The New York Weill Cornell Medical Center Fund, Inc. (WCMC Fund) as beneficial interest in net assets held by related organizations in its consolidated statements of financial position and also recognizes the periodic changes in such interests in its consolidated statements of changes in net assets.

14 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Property, Buildings, and Equipment: Property, buildings, and equipment purchased are recorded at cost and those acquired through gifts and bequests are carried at appraised or fair value established at the date of contribution. The carrying amounts of assets and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts when such assets are disposed of and any resulting gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of buildings, building improvements, and fixed equipment is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation of movable equipment is recorded using the sum-of-the-years-digits method. Equipment under capital lease obligations and leasehold improvements is amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. Such amortization is included in depreciation and amortization in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Financing Costs: Capitalized financing costs are included in other noncurrent assets and are amortized using the effective interest method over the term that the related debt is expected to be outstanding.

Classification of Net Assets: The Hospital separately accounts for and reports donor restricted and unrestricted net assets. Unrestricted net assets are not externally restricted for identified purposes by donors or grantors. Unrestricted net assets include resources that the governing board may use for any designated purpose and resources whose use is limited by agreement between the Hospital and an outside party other than the donor or grantor.

Temporarily restricted net assets are those whose use by the Hospital has been limited by donors to a specific time frame or purpose. When donor restrictions expire, that is, when a time restriction ends or a purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported as net assets released from restrictions. Permanently restricted net assets have been restricted by donors to be maintained in perpetuity.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Net Patient Service Revenue: Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net realizable amounts from patients, third-party payors and others for services rendered and includes estimated retroactive revenue adjustments due to ongoing and future audits, reviews and investigations. Retroactive adjustments are considered in the recognition of revenue on an estimated basis in the period the related services are rendered and are adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known or as years are no longer subject to such audits, reviews and investigations.

Operating Leases: Scheduled base rent increases under operating leases are recognized as rental expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Program Services: The Hospital’s program services consist of providing health care and related services, including graduate medical education. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, expenses related to providing these services are summarized as follows (in thousands):

2014 2013

Health care and related services $ 3,523,022 $ 3,331,125 Program support and general services 833,196 731,222 $ 4,356,218 $ 4,062,347

The Hospital maintains academic affiliations with two medical colleges: The Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons and the Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College of Cornell University (collectively, the Schools). Transactions occur on a routine basis between the Hospital and the Schools, based upon arrangements between the parties. Performance Indicator: The accompanying consolidated statements of operations include excess of revenues over expenses as the performance indicator. Excluded from the performance indicator are permanent transfers of assets to or from related entities and changes in pension and postretirement benefit liabilities to be recognized in future periods. Transactions deemed by management to be ongoing, major or central to the provision of health care services are reported as operating revenue and operating expenses and included in operating income. Investment return and certain transactions of an infrequent nature are excluded from operating income.

Tax Status: The entities comprising the Hospital, with the exception of LC Services, Inc., are Section 501(c)(3) organizations exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. These entities are also exempt from New York State income taxes. NYPH is exempt from New York City income taxes.

LC Services, Inc. is an inactive for-profit durable medical equipment company.

Reclassifications: Certain categories within investments were reclassified in Notes 7 and 13 from the 2013 presentation in order to conform with the 2014 presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on the net assets previously reported.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 supersedes the FASB’s current revenue recognition requirements and most industry-specific guidance. The provisions of ASU 2014- 09 are effective for the Hospital for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, although subject to postponement. Early application is not permitted. The Hospital has not completed the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated financial statements.

2. Net Patient Service Revenue

Net Patient Service Revenue and Accounts Receivable

The Hospital recognizes patient service revenue associated with services provided to patients who have third-party payor coverage on the basis of contractual or formula-driven rates for the services rendered (see description of third-party payor payment programs below). For uninsured and under-insured patients who do not qualify for charity care, the Hospital recognizes revenue on the basis of charges. Under the charity care policy, a patient who has no insurance or is under- insured and is ineligible for any government assistance program has his or her bill reduced to (1) the lesser of charges or the Medicaid diagnostic-related group for inpatient and (2) a discount

17 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued) from rates of the highest volume commercial payor for outpatient. The effect of this policy on the consolidated financial statements is lower net patient service revenue, as the discount is considered an allowance.

Patient service revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, net of contractual allowances and discounts (but before the provision for bad debts), recognized from these major payor sources based on primary insurance designation, is as follows (in thousands):

2014 2013

Third-party payors $ 4,292,014 $ 3,974,176 Self-pay 81,517 76,456 $ 4,373,531 $ 4,050,632

Accounts receivable is recorded at its expected net realizable value. In evaluating the collectibility of accounts receivable, the Hospital analyzes its past history and identify trends for each of its major payor sources of revenue to estimate the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts and provision for bad debts. Management regularly reviews data about these major payor sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The allowance for doubtful accounts for self-pay patients was approximately 46% and 52% of self-pay accounts receivable as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Hospital did not experience significant changes in write-off trends and did not change its charity care policy in 2014 or 2013.

Third-Party Payment Programs

The Hospital has agreements with third-party payors that provide for payment for services rendered at amounts different from its established rates. A summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors follows:

Medicare Reimbursement: Hospitals are paid for most Medicare patient services under national prospective payment systems and other methodologies of the Medicare program for certain other services. Federal regulations provide for adjustments to current and prior years’ payment rates, based on industry-wide and Hospital-specific data.

18 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued)

Non-Medicare Reimbursement: In New York State, hospitals and all non-Medicare payors (including Medicare and Medicaid managed care plans), except Medicaid, workers’ compensation and no-fault insurance programs, negotiate hospitals’ payment rates. If negotiated rates are not established, payors are billed at hospitals’ established charges. Medicaid, workers’ compensation and no-fault payors pay hospital rates promulgated by the New York State Department of Health. Payments to hospitals for Medicaid, workers’ compensation and no-fault inpatient services are based on a statewide prospective payment system, with retroactive adjustments. Outpatient services also are paid based on a statewide prospective system. Medicaid rate methodologies are subject to approval at the Federal level by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), which may routinely request information about such methodologies prior to approval. Revenue related to specific rate components that have not been approved by CMS is not recognized until the Hospital is reasonably assured that such amounts are realizable. Adjustments to the current and prior years’ payment rates for those payors will continue to be made in future years.

The Hospital has established estimates, based on information presently available, of amounts due to or from Medicare and non-Medicare payors for adjustments to current and prior years’ payment rates, based on industry-wide and Hospital-specific data. Medicare cost reports, which serve as the basis for final settlement with the Medicare program, have been audited by the Medicare fiscal intermediary and settled through 2001 for NYPH, 2008 for NYP/LMH and 2011 for NYP/Lawrence Hospital. Other years and various issues remain open for audit and settlement, as are numerous issues related to the New York State Medicaid program for prior years. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount when open years are settled, audits are completed and additional information is obtained. The current Medicaid, Medicare and other third-party payor programs are based upon extremely complex laws and regulations that are subject to interpretation. Non-compliance with such laws and regulations could result in fines, penalties and exclusion from such programs. The Hospital is not aware of any allegations of non-compliance that could have a material adverse effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements and believe that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. During 2014 and 2013, the Hospital revised estimates made in prior years to reflect the passage of time and the availability of more recent information, such as settlement activity, associated with the related payment items. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the net effect of the Hospital’s revisions to prior year estimates resulted in net patient service revenue increasing by approximately $48.9 million and $38.4 million, respectively.

19 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued)

There are various proposals at the federal and state levels that could, among other things, significantly reduce payment rates or modify payment methods. The ultimate outcome of these proposals and other market changes, including the potential effects of health care reform that has been enacted by the federal government, cannot be determined presently. Future changes in the Medicare and Medicaid programs and any reduction of funding could have an adverse impact on the Hospital. Additionally, certain payors’ payment rates for various years have been appealed by the Hospital. If the appeals are successful, additional income applicable to those years could be realized.

The Hospital grants credit without collateral to its patients, most of whom are insured under third-party payor agreements. Significant concentrations of patient accounts receivable at December 31, 2014 and 2013 are as follows:

2014 2013

Medicare 17% 21% Medicaid 16 17 Commercial carriers and health maintenance organizations 55 55 Self-pay patients 12 7 100% 100%

Revenue from the Medicare and Medicaid programs accounted for approximately 42% and 44% of the Hospital’s net patient service revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Uncompensated Care and Community Benefit Expense

The Hospital’s commitment to community service is evidenced by services provided to special populations such as minorities, the elderly, persons with disabilities, the mentally ill, persons with AIDS and poor persons (Special Populations) and benefits provided to the broader community. Services provided to such Special Populations include services provided to persons who cannot afford health care because of inadequate resources and who are uninsured or underinsured.

20 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued)

The Hospital provides quality medical care regardless of race, creed, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, handicap, age or ability to pay. Although reimbursement for services rendered is critical to the operations and stability of the Hospital, the Hospital recognizes that not all individuals have the ability to pay for medically necessary services and, furthermore, the Hospital’s mission is to serve the community with respect to health care. Therefore, in keeping with the Hospital’s commitment to serve members of the community, the Hospital provides uncompensated care through: medical care to the indigent for free or discounted prices (charity care/financial aid) and care to persons covered by governmental programs that pay the Hospital less than the full cost of services provided. In addition, the Hospital provides significant community benefit activities which include wellness programs, community education programs, health screenings and a broad variety of community support services, health professionals’ education, school based programs, and subsidized health services.

The Hospital believes it is important to quantify comprehensively the benefits it provides to the community, which is an area of emphasis for not-for-profit health care providers. The costs of uncompensated care and community benefit activities are derived from various Hospital records. Amounts for activities as reported below are based on estimated and actual data, subject to changes in estimates upon the finalization of the Hospital’s cost report and other government filings. The amounts reported below are calculated in accordance with guidelines prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS); 2013 estimates have been updated to reflect actual amounts. The net cost of charity care includes the direct and indirect cost of providing charity care services, offset by revenues received from indigent care pools and other subsidies. The cost is estimated by utilizing a ratio of cost to gross charges applied to the gross uncompensated charges associated with providing charity care. Funds received to offset bad debt and charity services totaled approximately $54.5 million and $53.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, including approximately $52.6 million and $51.7 million, respectively, from the indigent care pool under the New York State Medicaid program. The charity care component of the indigent care pool payments (approximately 64% for 2014 and 2013) is estimated utilizing a ratio of charity care charges to total charity care and bad debt charges applied to the indigent care pool reimbursement.

21 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued)

Costs related to uncompensated care and community benefit activities are summarized for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 as follows (in thousands):

2014 2013

Charity care, net(a) $ 35,224 $ 27,945 Means-tested programs(b) 246,314 231,447 Other community benefits(c)(d) 395,645 337,630 Total charity care and other community benefits $ 677,183 $ 597,022

Charity care, at cost, and means-tested programs include the following (and exclude losses incurred on providing services to Medicare patients):

(a) Charity Care: As part of its charity care and financial aid policy, the Hospital obtains and uses additional financial information for uninsured or under-insured patients who have not supplied the requisite information to qualify for charity care. The additional information obtained is used by the Hospital to determine whether to qualify patients for charity care and/or financial aid in accordance with the Hospital’s policies. The Hospital makes available free care programs for qualifying patients under its charity care and financial aid policy. During the registration, billing and collection process, a patient’s eligibility for free care funds is determined. For patients who do not receive free care and who are determined to be eligible for charity care in the form of discounted medical services under the Hospital’s charity care and financial aid policy, care given but not paid for is classified as charity care. For patients who were determined by the Hospital to have the ability to pay but did not, the uncollected amounts are classified as provision for bad debt (approximately $59.5 million in 2014 and $54.1 million in 2013). Distinguishing between bad debt and charity care is difficult, in part because services are often rendered prior to full evaluation of a patient’s ability to pay. Annually, the Hospital accrues for potential losses that meet the definition of charity care (including free and discounted medical care) allowances.

(b) Means-Tested Programs: Community benefits include losses incurred in providing services to patients who participate in certain public health programs such as Medicaid. Payments received by the Hospital for patient services provided to Medicaid program participants are less than the actual cost of providing such services. Therefore, to the

22 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Net Patient Service Revenue (continued)

extent Medicaid payments are less than the cost of care provided to Medicaid patients, the uncompensated cost of that care is considered to be a community benefit.

Other community benefits include the following:

(c) Community Health Improvement Services and Community Benefit Operations: The Hospital is committed to serving the vast array of neighborhoods comprising its service area and recognizes the importance of preserving a local community focus to effectively meet community need. The Hospital adheres to a single standard for assessing and meeting community need, while retaining a geographically focused approach for soliciting community participation and involvement and providing community outreach.

The Hospital has fostered continued community participation and outreach activities through linkages with numerous community-based groups. Community health improvement services and related operations include clinical services, screening and exams, and other education or support services in areas such as the following: asthma, behavioral health, cancer, children’s health, community-based outreach and health education, digestive diseases, emergency services/emergency preparedness, heart disease, HIV/AIDS, neuroscience, vascular disease and women’s health (a complete description of each service can be found in the Hospital’s annual community service plan).

(d) Health Professions Education: Helping to prepare future health care professionals is a distinguishing characteristic of major academic not-for-profit teaching hospitals and constitutes a significant community benefit. The Hospital has a world renowned residency program and trains approximately 1,700 residents each year in all clinical programs (the programs are in two medical schools and cover 147 accredited graduate medical education programs). The Hospital is committed to offering quality graduate medical education programs as part of its education mission.

(a) FHA Section 242 Insured Mortgage Loan – 1998: NYPH’s original mortgage agreement with the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (DASNY) is insured under the provisions of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Housing Agency (FHA) Section 242 mortgage insurance program. During 2005, NYPH received $8.4 million from DASNY in relation to a release of assets held by DASNY in reserve under the mortgage note and recorded the receipts as an increase to NYPH’s deferred revenue balance in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position. The deferred revenue is being amortized over the remaining life of the mortgage using the effective interest method.

In August 2009, NYPH completed the final endorsement of the FHA Section 242 Insured Mortgage Loan – 1998. The remaining amortization schedule was finalized with principal and interest payments due through July 1, 2025. The terms of the mortgage were amended and, effective September 1, 2009, interest was to be paid at a fixed annual rate of 5.99% of the unpaid balance until the loan was fully paid. As a result of the final endorsement,

27 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

5. Long-Term Debt (continued)

DASNY released to NYPH an additional $40.8 million of unused proceeds from the initial mortgage loan and NYPH received approximately $2.9 million from the IRS related to prior years’ bond proceeds arbitrage, all used for certain capital projects and as additional equity for the December 2010 transaction (see below). Additionally, the final endorsement resulted in NYPH’s debt escrow fund (approximately $12.5 million at final endorsement) being released for partial payment of the debt obligation at various future intervals.

In December 2010, DASNY assigned NYPH’s mortgage to Prudential Huntoon Paige Associates, Ltd. (Prudential). In connection therewith, DASNY bonds were defeased and Prudential issued new Government National Mortgage Association bonds to fund the mortgage loan. This transaction resulted in a reduction in the interest rate of the mortgage loan, effective December 15, 2010, to a fixed rate of 4.22% over the remaining term and required NYPH to make an equity contribution of $23.8 million ($15.1 million of the equity contribution was made, with the remaining balance of amounts held in assets limited as to use as part of the final endorsement). The equity contribution is being amortized over the remaining life of the mortgage using the effective interest method and has a balance in noncurrent assets, net of accumulated amortization, of approximately $12.5 million and $14.9 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. All other material terms of the mortgage remained the same. (b) FHA Section 242 Insured Mortgage Loans – 2004: NYPH has two mortgage loans, with identical terms most recently amended in 2004, issued through DASNY. The two mortgage loans are insured under the provisions of the FHA Section 242 mortgage insurance program. The mortgage loans are payable monthly through April 2015 and carry an interest rate of 7.5%. In connection with a 1998 revision to one of the original mortgage notes, deferred revenue with an initial balance of $29.5 million was recognized, reflecting the present value of the interest rate savings that were advanced to NYPH upon creation of the 1998 mortgage. The deferred revenue is being amortized over the remaining life of the mortgage using the effective interest method.

(c) FHA Section 241 Insured Mortgage Loan – 2007: In September 2007, DASNY issued $296.1 million of The New York and Presbyterian Hospital FHA-Insured Mortgage Hospital Revenue Bonds, Series 2007. A portion of the proceeds of the bonds was used to fund a mortgage loan from DASNY to NYPH. The maximum principal amount of $278.5 million incorporated a discount of $5.4 million. The mortgage is insured under the provisions of the FHA Section 241 mortgage insurance program. The mortgage bore interest at a rate of 6.5% through May 31, 2010 and 4.9% through July 31, 2012 (in addition, NYPH paid an incremental rate of 1.6% until final endorsement). On August 7, 2012, NYPH completed final endorsement and the terms of the mortgage were amended and, effective August 1, 2012, interest was to be paid at a rate of 4.55%. The remaining amortization schedule was finalized, with principal and interest payments through June 1, 2035. In addition, the final endorsement resulted in the termination of NYPH’s letter of credit with a bank that provided security for equity contributions required under the plan of financing.

In December 2012, DASNY assigned NYPH’s mortgage loan to Prudential. In connection therewith, the DASNY bonds were refunded and Prudential issued new Government National Mortgage Association securities to fund NYPH’s mortgage. This transaction resulted in a reduction in the interest rate on the mortgage loan to a fixed rate of 2.74% over the remaining term of the loan, effective December 13, 2012. All other material terms of the mortgage remained the same.

(d) Secured Hospital Revenue Refunding Bonds – 2011: In March 2011, NYP/LMH issued $32.6 million of Secured Hospital Revenue Refunding Bonds – 2011 through DASNY. The bonds bear interest at a fixed interest rate of 5%, payable semi-annually, with a final maturity date of February 15, 2022. NYP/LMH has granted to DASNY, with certain permitted exceptions, a security interest in gross receipts and certain fixtures, furnishings and equipment that secure the payment of the debt. The bonds are further secured by amounts, if required, that would be payable under a service contract between DASNY and the State of New York.

5. Long-Term Debt (continued)

In January 2005, in connection with the then outstanding NYP/LMH Series 1998 Bonds, DASNY required NYP/LMH to fund an escrow account with two years of principal and interest payments on the outstanding bonds (approximately $10.6 million at December 31, 2013 (see Note 3)). In May 2014, NYPH obtained approval from DASNY to release the funds from the escrow account.

(e) Beekman Mortgage Payable: In July 1977, NYP/LMH, through an affiliate, entered into an agreement with the New York City Housing Development Corporation (HDC), whereby the then existing mortgage agreement was modified and the mortgage debt was divided into a senior mortgage (bore interest at 7.25%), which was insured by the U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and a junior mortgage (bore interest at 7.82%) which was held by HDC. HDC administered both the senior and junior mortgages.

In September 2014, the mortgage was transferred to Royal Charter Properties, Inc. (RCP, Inc.) in connection with the deeding of the mortgaged property, building and equipment to RCP, Inc. (see Note 10). Concurrently, the debt was refinanced by RCP, Inc. through a commercial bank.

(f) FHA Section 241 Insured Mortgage Loan – 2013: In September 2013, NYPH executed a $500.0 million mortgage note with Prudential. The mortgage note bears interest at a fixed interest rate of 4.5%, payable semi-annually. The loan has a final maturity of September 1, 2038, principal payable annually. The proceeds of the loan were issued to a construction escrow account and are to be used to construct an ambulatory care center and for related costs (see Note 3). NYPH incurred approximately $8.5 million of financing costs in connection with the issuance of the loan that will be amortized over the life of the loan.

(g) Series 1998 Bonds Payable: In June 1998 and December 1998, the County of Westchester Industrial Development Agency issued $10.7 million of Series 1998A bonds and $10.8 million of Series 1998B bonds. The Series 1998A bonds mature at varying dates through January 1, 2018, with fixed interest rates ranging from 3.80% to 5.13% payable semiannually. The Series 1998B bonds mature at varying dates through January 1, 2028, with fixed interest rates ranging from 4.20% to 5.00% payable semiannually.

(h) Term Loan Payable: In September 2013, Lawrence signed a term loan agreement with TD Bank, NA. The initial principal amount of the loan was $25.7 million to be used for the construction of a new three-story building to house a new surgery and oncology center and

Pursuant to debt agreements, NYPH and NYP/Lawrence Hospital are required to maintain certain debt service funds, including mortgage reserve funds. In addition, NYPH and NYP/Lawrence Hospital are required to maintain certain working capital, debt service coverage and other financial ratios and financial conditions, and to obtain approval to incur additional debt above specified levels if certain covenant requirements are not met. Through December 31, 2014 and 2013, NYPH and NYP/Lawrence Hospital were in compliance with the financial covenants. The mortgages are collateralized by substantially all of NYPH and NYP/Lawrence Hospital’s property, buildings and equipment and gross receipts derived from operations.

In February 2015, NYPH issued $750.0 million in unsecured taxable bonds. The bonds bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.0%. The bonds have a final maturity date of August 1, 2045.

(i) Capital Leases: Certain equipment leases are the equivalent of an installment purchase for purposes of financial statement reporting. The lenders hold a first security interest in the financed equipment. NYPH has entered into several capital lease financing agreements with commercial lenders in conjunction with DASNY’s tax-exempt lease program. The total amount outstanding related to the tax-exempt lease program is approximately $6.4 million and $13.4 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Hospital entered into several other capital leases in 2014 and 2013, totaling approximately $11.7 million and $14.2 million, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

7. Beneficial Interest in Net Assets Held by Related Organizations (continued)

Permanently restricted net assets that are included in the beneficial interest in net assets held by related organizations represent endowments that have been restricted by donors to be maintained in perpetuity and are held by Fund, Inc. and WCMC Fund on behalf of the Hospital. The Hospital follows the requirements of the New York Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (NYPMIFA) as they relate to its permanently restricted contributions and net assets.

The Hospital has interpreted NYPMIFA as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment fund, absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. The Hospital classifies as permanently restricted net assets the original value of the gifts donated to the permanent endowment and the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment. Accumulations to the permanent endowment are used in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift. The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is classified as temporarily restricted net assets until the amounts are appropriated for expenditure in accordance with a standard of prudence prescribed by NYPMIFA. The Hospital considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds: (i) the duration and preservation of the fund; (ii) the purposes of the Hospital and the donor-restricted endowment fund; (iii) general economic conditions; (iv) the possible effects of inflation and deflation; (v) where appropriate and circumstances would otherwise warrant, alternatives to expenditure of the endowment fund, giving due consideration to the effect that such alternatives may have on the Hospital; (vi) the expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments; (vii) other resources of the Hospital and (viii) the investment and spending policies of the Hospital. Fund, Inc.’s endowment investment returns distribution policy, which applies to the Hospital, allows for expenditures of investment return only, at a rate not to exceed 4.5% of the permanently restricted net asset balance on an annual basis.

The Hospital has adopted investment and spending policies for endowment assets that attempt to provide a predictable stream of funding related to the endowment funds, while seeking to maintain the purchasing power of the funds. To satisfy long-term return objectives, the Hospital relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The Hospital employs a long-term equity oriented strategy of investing in both traditional and alternative asset classes.

8. Insurance

Professional Liability Insurance: In 1978, the Hospital, in conjunction with a number of unrelated health care entities, participated in the formation of captive insurance companies (collectively, the Captive) to provide professional liability and general liability insurance to its participants. The premiums are based on a modified claims-made coverage and are actuarially determined based on the actual experience of the Captive, Hospital-specific experience, and estimated current exposure. The Captive has reinsurance coverage from reinsurers for certain amounts above its coverage level per claim limits. The investments in the Captive are owned by Fund, Inc. Accordingly, insurance premiums are paid by the Hospital initially to Fund, Inc. (see Note 10). Effective July 1, 2013, NYP/LMH is insured by the Captive. Prior to July 1, 2013, NYP/LMH was covered by various self-insured, claims-made and excess insurance policies. Most recently, effective July 1, 2009, NYP/LMH increased its claims-made self-insured program to $6.0 million with a retroactive date of August 6, 2003. The primary layer consists of $2.0 million per claim with a $10.0 million aggregate (the aggregate includes $1.5 million of general liability coverage) followed by an excess layer of $4.0 million per claim and aggregate limit (the excess excludes general liability). For this layer, however, NYP/LMH has the option to activate claims-made coverage from an insurance company for a specified premium. The purchase option can be activated at any point during the next seven years after inception and the coverage applies to all claims in the layer from the July 1, 2009 inception date. Effective August 1, 2014, Lawrence is insured by the Captive. Effective November 15, 1998, Lawrence and certain other member hospitals of Stellaris Health Network (Stellaris), Lawrence’s former active parent, participated in a combined insurance program that provided coverage through purchased primary and excess insurance on a claims-made basis. Effective January 1, 2004, Lawrence purchased excess professional liability insurance above its primary placement layer on a claims-made basis with a prepaid tail liability endorsement from a captive insurance company formed by Stellaris, NWLP Insurance Company Ltd. (NWLP). Effective June 30, 2014, NWLP implemented a segregated “cell captive” structure which replaced the previous insurance structure. Under this program, NWLP utilizes individual cells for each participating hospital, under which invested assets and insurance-related liabilities are segregated for each participant and there is no shared risk among the entities.

Lawrence’s investments under the cell captive structure and the related changes in its segregated account as reported by NWLP are recorded in the accompanying 2014 consolidated statement of financial position. At December 31, 2014, investments held by NWLP totaling approximately $26.6 million are included in assets limited as to use in the accompanying consolidated 2014 statement of financial position (see Note 3). Effective October 1, 2014, the NWLP prepaid tail liability endorsement was removed.

The Hospital’s undiscounted estimate for professional liabilities and the estimate for incidents that have been incurred but not reported aggregated approximately $430.8 million and $422.4 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is included in professional liabilities in the accompanying statements of financial position at the actuarially determined present value of approximately $392.9 million and $381.4 million, respectively, based on a discount rate of 3.0% for each of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 (the NYP/LMH self-insured liability of approximately $19.8 million and $26.1 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, is undiscounted). The Hospital has recorded related insurance recoveries receivable of approximately $241.9 million and $226.2 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, in consideration of the expected insurance recoveries for the total discounted modified claims-made insurance. Funded amounts (approximately $20.9 million and $15.1 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, aside from the investments held in the segregated cell) have been placed in a separate account and are included in assets limited as to use in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position. The current portion of professional liabilities and the related insurance recoveries receivable represents an estimate of expected settlements and insurance recoveries over the next 12 months. The Hospital’s estimates for professional liabilities are based upon complex actuarial calculations which utilize factors such as historical claims experience for the Hospital and related industry factors, trending models, estimates for the payment patterns of future claims and present value discount factors. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in the near term. Revisions to estimated amounts resulting from actual experience differing from projected expectations are recorded in the period the information becomes known or when changes are anticipated.

8. Insurance (continued)

Workers’ Compensation Insurance: Prior to April 1, 1999, the Hospital was self-insured for workers’ compensation claims. Since April 1, 1999, the Hospital has purchased insurance through the New York State Insurance Fund in a program that effectively transfers risk from the Hospital. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the estimate for self-insured workers’ compensation claims and incurred but not reported liabilities prior to April 1, 1999, aggregated approximately $9.0 million and $10.6 million, respectively, and is included in professional liabilities in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position.

In connection with the workers’ compensation self-insurance programs, the Hospital maintains two letters of credit through banks in the aggregate amount of approximately $13.2 million, which satisfies the collateral deposit requirement.

9. Pension and Similar Benefit Plans

Pension Plans: The Hospital provides pension and similar benefits to its employees through several plans, including various multiemployer plans for union employees (see Note 14), a qualified noncontributory defined benefit plan primarily for eligible non-union employees of NYPH (the Qualified Pension Plan), a defined benefit retirement plan under a collective bargaining agreement for certain employees of NYP/LMH (the NYP/LMH Pension Plan), a non- contributory defined benefit retirement plan for eligible Lawrence employees (the Lawrence Pension Plan), a nonqualified defined benefit plan for certain NYPH executives (the Nonqualified Pension Plan) and a nonqualified defined benefit plan for certain Lawrence executives (the Lawrence Nonqualified Pension Plan) (the non-multiemployer plans are collectively referred to as the Pension Plans).

Through December 31, 2008, NYPH also provided pension and similar benefits to certain employees through a defined contribution plan. The employees who participated in the defined contribution plan became participants of the qualified defined benefit plan effective December 31, 2008, in a change that responded to certain regulatory requirements. Certain employees of NYP/LMH are covered under a defined contribution plan to which annual discretionary contributions are made based on percentages of both applicable salaries and voluntary contributions. The Hospital funds the noncontributory defined benefit plans in accordance with the minimum funding requirement of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), plus additional amounts that the Hospital may deem appropriate from time to time. Amounts contributed to the Pension Plans are based on actuarial valuations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

9. Pension and Similar Benefit Plans (continued)

The benefits for participants or their beneficiaries in the Pension Plans sponsored by the Hospital are based on years of service and employees’ compensation during their years of employment.

Postretirement Benefits: The Hospital provides certain health care and life insurance benefits to its retired non-union employees through several plans (the Postretirement Benefit Plans).

The Hospital recognizes in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position an asset, for a defined benefit postretirement plan’s overfunded status, or a liability, for a plan’s underfunded status; measures a defined benefit postretirement plan’s assets and obligations that determine funded status as of the end of the fiscal year; and recognizes the periodic change in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as a component of changes in unrestricted net assets in the year in which the change occurs. Amounts that are recognized as a component of changes in unrestricted net assets will be subsequently recognized as net periodic pension and postretirement cost.

Weighted-average assumptions used in determining the net periodic pension and postretirement benefits cost for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

Postretirement Pension Plans Benefit Plans 2014 2013 2014 2013

The overall expected long-term rate of return on assets of the Pension Plans is based on the historical returns of each asset class weighted by the target asset allocation. The target asset allocation has been selected consistent with the Hospital’s desired risk and return characteristics. The Hospital reviews the expected long-term rate periodically and, based on the building block approach, updates the rate for changes in the marketplace. The market conditions in 2014 and 2013 and changes in the pension asset allocations were considered in the Hospital’s evaluation of the expected long-term rate of return assumption.

In relation to the NYPH’s postretirement benefit plan (excluding the postretirement benefit plan for Lawrence), the weighted-average annual assumed rate of increase per capita cost of covered benefits (i.e., health care cost trend rate) is assumed to start at 6.70% and decrease to 4.50% by 2023. The health care cost trend rate assumption may have an effect on the amounts reported. A one percent change in the assumed health care cost trend rate would have the following effects (in thousands):

1% 1% Increase Decrease Effect on total of service and interest cost components in health care cost trend rate $ 49 $ (44) Effect on postretirement benefit obligation as of as of December 31, 2014 1,411 (1,265)

The measurement date used to determine the pension and postretirement benefits measurements is December 31.

Plan Assets: The Qualified Pension Plan, the NYP/LMH Pension Plan and the Lawrence Pension Plan have separate asset allocation targets. The overall objective of the investment policy of the Qualified Pension Plan is to produce an asset allocation that will generate return annually in order to meet the expense and income needs and provide for sufficient annual asset growth. Funds are invested with a long- term (five years or greater) return objective.

The Qualified Pension Plan’s investment policy includes the following asset allocation guidelines:

9. Pension and Similar Benefit Plans (continued)

The policy target percentages are reevaluated at least quarterly. Investment performance is reviewed quarterly with performance results and benchmarks compiled independently by the plan’s trustee. NYP/LMH and NYP/Lawrence Hospital Pension Plans’ weighted-average asset allocations at December 31, 2014 are comprised of investments in equity and fixed income securities. Assets invested in the Pension Plans are carried at fair value. Fixed income and equity securities and real assets with readily determinable values are carried at fair value as determined based on independent published sources. Alternative investments are stated at fair value, as estimated in an unquoted market. Fair value for alternative investments is determined for each investment using net asset values as a practical expedient, as permitted by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, rather than using another valuation method to independently estimate fair value. The composition and reported value of the Pension Plans’ assets at December 31, 2014 and 2013 are disclosed in Note 13. The Hospital expects to contribute approximately $55 million to its Pension Plans and $4 million to its Postretirement Benefit Plans in 2015. The Medicare Prescription Drug Act introduced a prescription drug benefit under Medicare (Medicare Part D) as well as a Federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D.

Various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of operations are pending or are in progress against the Hospital. Such lawsuits and claims are either specifically covered by insurance or are not deemed material. While the outcome of these lawsuits cannot be determined at this time, management, based on advice from legal counsel, believes that any loss which may arise from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Hospital.

At December 31, 2014, approximately 38% of the Hospital’s employees were covered by collective bargaining agreements. Collective bargaining agreements covering all such employees are set to expire at various dates through 2018.

Effective January 1, 2009, the IRS issued final regulations for purposes of determining common control for qualified retirement plans sponsored by tax-exempt organizations. In general, tax- exempt entities that are under common control are treated as one entity for certain of the requirements of qualified plans. The regulations determine control based on facts and circumstances; for this purpose, common control would exist if, among other situations, at least

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

12. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

80% of the directors or trustees of one organization were either representatives of, or directly or indirectly controlled by, another organization. These regulations could have an effect on the operations of the Hospital’s and its related entities’ retirement plans and the responsibilities of those entities for associated liabilities, although such effects are uncertain at this time.

13. Fair Value Measurements

The Hospital uses various methods of calculating fair value of its financial assets and liabilities, when applicable. The Hospital defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value measurements are applied based on the unit of account from the Hospital’s perspective. The unit of account determines what is being measured by reference to the level at which the asset or liability is aggregated (or disaggregated).

The Hospital uses a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable inputs that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. In determining fair value, the Hospital uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers non-performance risk in its assessment of fair value.

13. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

(a) Common collective/commingled trusts invested in corporate bonds and mortgage and asset backed securities. (b) Equity portfolios invested in common stock of corporations primarily domiciled in the United States. (c) Equity portfolios invested in common stock of corporations primarily domiciled outside the United States, including emerging market countries. (d) Common collective/commingled trusts invested in common stock of corporations domiciled in the United States and outside the United States, including emerging market countries. (e) Hedge funds include long and short equity, multi-strategy, event driven and relative value funds invested with managers who invest with different strategies and typically employ some leverage. In long and short equity, fund managers create a portfolio of long positions in stocks expected to appreciate over time and short positions in stocks expected to depreciate. Event driven managers create a portfolio designed to profit from corporate events such as mergers, spin-offs, defaults and bankruptcy. Relative value managers invest in long and short positions, but typically have a more neutral net market position than long and short. Multi- strategy is a fund employing a variety of hedge fund strategies. (f) Private equity investments include limited partnership investments in funds pursuing strategies in corporate buyouts, venture capital, growth equity, distressed and turnaround investments. (g) Real estate and natural resources investments.

The following is a description of the Hospital’s valuation methodologies for assets measured at fair value. The fair value methodologies are not necessarily indicators of investment risk, but are descriptive of the measures used to arrive at fair value pricing. Fair value for Level 1 is based upon quoted market prices. Investments classified as Level 2, excluding alternative investments, are primarily valued using techniques that are consistent with the market approach. Valuations for Level 2 are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets. Inputs, which include broker/dealer quotes, reported/comparable trades, and benchmark yields are obtained from various sources including market participants, dealers and brokers. Common collective/commingled trusts and alternative investments classified as Level 2 are redeemable in the near term. Level 3 assets consist of alternative investments that are not redeemable in the near term. The valuation for alternative investments included in Levels 2 and 3 is described in Note 9. The methods described above may produce a fair value that is not indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Hospital believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

The following is a rollforward of the consolidated statements of financial position amounts for financial instruments classified by the Hospital in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy defined above for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands):

2014 2013

Balance, beginning of year $ 234,315 $ 183,354 Total realized and unrealized gains or losses 32,164 23,979 Acquisition of NYP/Lawrence Hospital Level 3 investments 9,061 – Purchases 122,915 57,375 Transfers 1,464 (30,393) Balance, end of year $ 399,919 $ 234,315

Change in unrealized gains related to financial instruments held at the reporting date $ 24,297 $ 19,298

Transfers between Levels 2 and 3 reflect management’s assessment of whether the underlying investments are redeemable in the near term.

13. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

The following is a summary of investments (by major class) that have restrictions on the Hospital’s ability to redeem its investments at the measurement date, any unfunded capital commitments and the investments strategies of the investees as of December 31, 2014 (including investments accounted for using the equity method) (in thousands):

Redemption Redemption Description of Fair Unfunded Frequency Notice Investment Value Commitments (If Currently Eligible) Period

Common collective/ commingled trusts $ 578,699 $ – Daily to Monthly 3 to 30 days Hedge funds 400,995 – Monthly to tri-annually 45 to 180 days Private equity 317,529 187,011 * * Private real assets 192,893 167,059 * * $ 1,490,116 $ 354,070

* The Hospital’s liquidity restrictions range from several months to ten years for certain private equity and real asset investments. Liquidity restrictions may apply to all or portions of a particular invested amount.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, other current assets and liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Carrying value approximates fair value for other noncurrent financial instruments, excluding long-term debt obligations and financial instruments included in the fair value tables. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the fair value of long-term debt obligations totaled approximately $1,205.0 million and $1,180.2 million, respectively, excluding capital leases and unamortized fair value adjustments (see carrying value of long-term debt at Note 5). The fair value of long-term debt is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, using techniques consistent with the market approach. Valuations for long-term debt, excluding the term loan payable, are based on quoted market prices for related bonds. The carrying amount of the term loan payable approximates fair value based on consideration of current market data and discounted cash flow estimates.

14. Multiemployer Pension Plans

The Hospital contributes to the New York State Nurses Association Pension Plan (NYSNA) and the 1199 SEIU Healthcare Employees Pension Fund (1199 SEIU). These are multiemployer defined benefit pension plans under the terms of collective bargaining agreements that cover the Hospital’s union-represented employees. Contributions to union plans are based on union employee gross salary levels and rates required under union contractual arrangements.

The risks of participating in these multiemployer plans are different from single-employer plans in the following respects:

• Assets contributed to the multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers.

• If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers.

• If the Hospital chooses to stop participating in some of its multiemployer plans, the Hospital may be required to pay those plans an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability.

14. Multiemployer Pension Plans (continued)

The Hospital’s participation in these plans for the annual period ended December 31, 2014, is outlined in the table below. The “EIN/Pension Plan Number” column provides the Employee Identification Number (EIN) and the three-digit plan number, if applicable. Unless otherwise noted, the most recent Pension Protection Act (PPA) zone status available in 2014 and 2013 is for the plan’s year-end at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The zone status is based on information that the Hospital received from the plan and is certified by the plan’s actuary. Among other factors, plans in the red zone are generally less than 65% funded, plans in the yellow zone are less than 80% funded and plans in the green zone are at least 80% funded. The “FIP/RP Status” column indicates plans for which a financial improvement plan (FIP) or a rehabilitation plan (RP) is either pending or has been implemented. The last column lists the expiration dates of the collective bargaining agreements to which the plans are subject.

Expiration Date of Pension Protection Act Contributions by the Collective Pension EIN/Pension Zone Status FIP/RP Hospital Surcharge Bargaining Fund Plan Number 2014 2013 Status 2014 2013 Imposed Agreement (In Thousands) 13-6604799/ NYSNA Plan No. 001 Green Green No $ 22,973 $ 20,620 No *

* The most recent collective bargaining agreement expired on December 31, 2014. A new collective bargaining agreement is currently under negotiation.

The Hospital was listed in the NYSNA plan’s Forms 5500 as providing more than 5% of the total contributions during each of the plans 2013 and 2012 plan years. Forms 5500 are not yet available for the plan years ended in 2014.

15. Events Subsequent to December 31, 2014

Subsequent events have been evaluated through April 29, 2015, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

In January 2015, NYP Community Programs, Inc. (Community Programs), of which NYPH is the sole member, acquired Hudson Valley Hospital Center (Hudson Valley), a 128-bed acute care hospital located in Cortlandt Manor, Westchester County, New York. Community Programs acquired Hudson Valley by means of an inherent contribution, in which no consideration was transferred by Community Programs. The Hospital will account for this business combination by applying the acquisition method and, accordingly, the inherent contribution received will be valued as the excess of assets acquired over liabilities assumed. In determining the inherent contribution received, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be measured at fair value as of the date of the acquisition. As of the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, management is preparing the initial accounting for the acquisition.

In April 2015, the New York State Department of Health approved a certificate of need application filed by Community Programs to acquire the New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens (the Medical Center). Approval from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development is also required before the acquisition can take place. The Hospital expects that such approval will be granted during 2015. As the Hospital and the Medical Center are entities under common control, the assets and liabilities of the Medical Center will be transferred to the Hospital at historical cost.

Except for the acquisition of Hudson Valley, the certificate of need filed to acquire the Medical Center and the bond issuance described in Note 5, no other subsequent events have occurred that require disclosure in or adjustment to the consolidated financial statements.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Interim Financial Statements

The New York and Presbyterian Hospital (the Hospital or NYPH) presumes that users of this unaudited interim consolidated financial information have read or have access to the Hospital's audited financial statements which include certain disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The audited financial statements of the Hospital for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, are on file with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board and are accessible through its Electronic Municipal Market Access Database (EMMA). Accordingly, footnotes and other disclosures that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the Hospital's most recent financial statements have been omitted from the unaudited interim consolidated financial information.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods have been included in the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. All such adjustments are considered by management to be of a normal, recurring nature, except as noted otherwise.

Patient volumes and net operating revenues are subject to seasonal variations caused by a number of factors, included, but not necessarily limited to, climate and weather conditions, vacation patterns of hospital patients and admitting physicians and other factors relating to the timing of elective hospital procedures. Monthly operating results are not necessarily representative of operations for a full year for various reasons, including levels of occupancy and other patient volumes, interest rates, unusual or non-recurring items and other seasonal fluctuations.

Organization and Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Hospital, NYP Community Services, Inc. (NYP Community Services), and NYP Community Programs, Inc. (NYP Community Programs), of which NYPH is the sole member. The reporting entity resulting from the consolidation of these entities is referred to herein as the "Hospital." All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Hospital is a tax-exempt organization that was incorporated under New York State not-for-profit corporation law. The Hospital is a major academic medical center, providing a full range of inpatient and outpatient services, mainly to residents of the New York metropolitan area. The Board of Trustees of the Hospital consists of persons who have first been elected as members of New York-Presbyterian Foundation, Inc. (Foundation, Inc.), a New York State not-for-profit corporation. Foundation, Inc. is related to a number of organizations.

Hudson Valley Hospital Acquisition: On January 26, 2015 (the Hudson Valley Acquisition Date), NYP Community Programs acquired Hudson Valley Hospital Center, Westchester Putnam Health Management System, Inc. and their subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as NYP!Hudson Valley or Hudson Valley). Hudson Valley consists of a 128-bed acute care hospital located in Cortlandt Manor, Westchester County, New York, a foundation, a physician practice and certain other entities primarily formed to purchase and lease space. NYP Community Programs acquired NYP!Hudson Valley by means of an inherent contribution, in which no consideration was transferred by NYP Community Programs or the Hospital. NYP Community Programs accounted for this business combination by applying the acquisition method and, accordingly, the inherent contribution received was valued as the excess of the value of NYP !Hudson Valley's assets over liabilities. In determining the inherent contribution received, all assets and liabilities were measured at fair value as of the Hudson Valley Acquisition Date. The results of Hudson Valley's operations have been included in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements since the Hudson Valley Acquisition Date.

New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens Acquisition: On July 1, 2015 (the Queens Acquisition Date), sole membership of The New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens and its controlled affiliates was transferred to NYP Community Programs. NYP Community Programs became the entity's active parent and renamed it NewYork-PresbyterianiQueens (referred to herein as Queens or NYP/Queens). NYP/Queens consists of a 535-bed acute care hospital located in Queens County, New York, a physician practice and certain other entities. As NYP/Queens and NYPH were entities under common control as of the Queens Acquisition Date, the change in control was accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of interests with retrospective adjustment in prior period financial statements for the period in which the entities were under common control. Therefore, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 reflect the financial position, operations, changes in net assets and cash flows of the Hospital, including NYP/Queens, as if the acquisition had been completed on January 1,2014; all relevant disclosures have been adjusted.

New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens Restatement: The 2014 financial statements of New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens have been restated to increase accrued pension and postretirement liabilities by $10.0 million. See New York Hospital Medical Center Queens audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 posted on EMMA for more details. The information for the three months ended March 31, 2015 also has been adjusted for the restatement.

Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2016

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

A summary of significant accounting policies follows:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, such as estimated uncollectibles for accounts receivable for services to patients, valuation of alternative investments, and liabilities, such as estimated settlements with third-party payors, professional insurance liabilities, and pension and postretirement benefits liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates also affect the amounts of revenue and expenses reported during the period. There is at least a reasonable possibility that certain estimates will change by material amounts in the near term. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Patient Service Revenue

Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net realizable amounts from patients, third• party payors and others for services rendered and includes estimated retroactive revenue adjustments due to ongoing and future audits, reviews and investigations. Retroactive adjustments are considered in the recognition of revenue on an estimated basis in the period the related services are provided, and such amounts are adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known or as years are no longer subject to such audits, reviews and investigations. The Hospital has agreements with third-party payors that provide for payment for services rendered at amounts different from its established rates. The notes to the audited financial statements of the Hospital for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, include additional disclosures which describe the Hospital's accounting for net patient service revenue and related matters.

The Hospital has established estimates, based on information presently available, of amounts due to or from Medicare and non-Medicare payors for adjustments to current and prior years' payment rates, based on industry-wide and Hospital-specific data. The current Medicaid, Medicare and other third-party payor programs are based upon extremely complex laws and regulations that are subject to interpretation. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount. Additionally, noncompliance with such laws and regulations could result in fines, penalties and exclusion from such programs. The Hospital is not aware of any allegations of noncompliance that could have a material adverse effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements and believes that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31,2016

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The Hospital cannot assess or predict the ultimate effect on its operations which may result from existing or future reimbursement legislation or regulations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the net effect of the Hospital's revisions to prior year estimates resulted in net patient service revenue increasing by approximately $14.6 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

Investments

Investments consist of money market funds, fixed income securities (including U.S. government bonds, non-U.S. government bonds, agency notes, mortgage and asset backed and corporate bonds), equity securities (including readily tradeable stocks, exchange traded funds and mutual funds), real asset investments (including individual investments and mutual funds invested in natural resources, energy and commodities), interests in common collective/commingled trusts and alternative investments (including hedge funds, investments in private equity firms and real asset funds). All investments (excluding interests in common collective/commingled trusts and alternative investments) are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices and are classified as trading investments.

Alternative investment interests generally are structured such that the Hospital holds a limited partnership interest or an interest in an investment management company. The Hospital's ownership structure does not provide for control over the related investees and the Hospital's financial risk is limited to the carrying amount reported for each investee, in addition to any unfunded capital commitment.

Individual investment holdings within the alternative investments include non-marketable and market-traded debt, equity and real asset securities and interests in other alternative investments. The Hospital may be exposed indirectly to securities lending, short sales of securities and trading in futures and forward contracts, options and other derivative products. Alternative investments often have liquidity restrictions under which the Hospital's capital may be divested only at specified times.

Alternative investments, excluding those held in the Hospital's defined benefit plans and interests in common collective/commingled trusts are reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position based upon net asset values derived from the application of the equity method of accounting. Alternative investments held in the Hospital's defined benefit plans are stated at fair value, as estimated in an unquoted market. Fair value for alternative investments is determined for each investment using net asset values as a practical expedient, as permitted by generally accepted accounting principles, rather than using another valuation method to independently estimate fair value. Financial information used by the Hospital to evaluate its alternative investments is provided

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

by the investment manager or general partner and includes fair value valuations (quoted market prices and values determined through other means) of underlying securities and other financial instruments held by the investee, and estimates that require varying degrees of judgment. The financial statements of the investee companies are audited annually by independent auditors, although the timing for reporting the results of such audits does not coincide with the Hospital's annual financial statements reporting. There is uncertainty in the accounting for alternative investments arising from factors such as lack of active markets (primary and secondary), lack of transparency into underlying holdings and time lags associated with reporting by the investee companies. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that estimates will change in the near term.

Tax Status

The Hospital is a Section 501(c)(3) organization exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Hospital also is exempt from New York State and City income taxes.

2. Pension and Similar Benefit Plans

The Hospital provides pension and similar benefits to its employees through several plans, including various multi-employer plans for union employees and several defined benefit plans. Additionally, the Hospital has defined contribution pension plans for certain employees. The Hospital also has several postretirement benefit plans that provide certain health care and life insurance benefits to its employees.

The Hospital funds the noncontributory defined benefit plans in accordance with the minimum funding requirement of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), plus additional amounts that the Hospital may deem appropriate from time to time. Amounts contributed to the pension plans are based on actuarial valuations.

The Hospital contributed $16.7 million and $13.7 million to its defined benefit pension plans for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Hospital expects to contribute approximately $50.1 million to its defined benefit pension plans for the remainder of2016.

The Hospital contributed $1.0 million and $1.3 million to its postretirement benefit pension plans for the three months ended March 31,2016 and 2015, respectively. The Hospital expects to contribute approximately $3.0 million to its postretirement benefit pension plans for the remainder of2016.

10 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31,2016

2. Pension and Similar Benefit Plans (continued)

The Hospital recognizes in its consolidated statements of financial position an asset, for a defined benefit postretirement plan's overfunded status, or a liability, for a plan's underfunded status; measures a defined benefit postretirement plan's assets and obligations that determine funded status as of the end of the Hospital's fiscal year; and recognizes the periodic change in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as a component of changes in unrestricted net assets in the year in which the change occurs. Amounts that are recognized as a component of changes in unrestricted net assets will be subsequently recognized as net periodic benefit cost.

Net periodic benefit cost consists of the following for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 (in thousands):

Postretirement Pension Plans Benefit Plans 2016 2015 2016 2015 (Unaudited) (Unaudited)

Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2016

3. Professional Liability Insurance Program

In 1978, the Hospital, in conjunction with a number of unrelated health care entities, participated in the formation of captive insurance companies (collectively, the Captive) to provide professional liability and general liability insurance to its participants. The premiums are based on a modified claims-made coverage and are actuarially determined based on the actual experience of the Captive, Hospital• specific experience, and estimated current exposure. The Captive has reinsurance coverage from reinsurers for certain amounts above its coverage level per claim limits. Rights to equity in the Captive were transferred to New York-Presbyterian Fund, Inc. (Fund, Inc.), a related party. Accordingly, insurance premiums are paid by the Hospital initially to Fund, Inc. The notes to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Hospital for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, include additional disclosures which describe the Hospital's accounting for its professional liability insurance program and related matters. The Hospital's estimates for professional liabilities are based upon complex actuarial calculations which utilize factors such as historical claims experience for the Hospital and related industry factors, trending models, estimates for the payment patterns of future claims and present value discount factors. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in the near term. Revisions to estimated amounts resulting from actual experience differing from projected expectations are recorded in the period the information becomes known or when changes are anticipated.

4. Fair Value Measurements The Hospital uses various methods of calculating fair value of its financial assets and liabilities, when applicable. The Hospital defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value measurements are applied based on the unit of account from the Hospital's perspective. The unit of account determines what is being measured by reference to the level at which the asset or liability is aggregated (or disaggregated).

The Hospital uses a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Levell: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable inputs that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

12 The New York and Presbyterian Hospital

Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31,2016

4. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. In determining fair value, the Hospital uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers non-performance risk in its assessment of fair value.

The following table presents financial instruments carried at fair value, excluding assets invested in the Hospital's pension plans, as of March 31,2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

In long and short equity, fund managers create a portfolio of long positions in stocks expected to appreciate over time and short positions in stocks expected to depreciate. Event driven managers create a portfolio designed to profit from corporate events, such as mergers, spin-offs, defaults and bankruptcy. Relative value managers invest in long and short positions, but typically have a more neutral net market position than long and short. Multi-strategy is a fund employing a variety of hedge fund strategies.

4. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

The following is a description of the Hospital's valuation methodologies for assets measured at fair value. The fair value methodologies are not necessarily indicators of investment risk, but are descriptive of the measures used to arrive at fair value pricing. Fair value for Levell is based upon quoted market prices. Investments classified as Level 2 are primarily valued using techniques that are consistent with the market approach. Valuations for Level 2 are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets. Inputs, which include broker/dealer quotes, reported/comparable trades, and benchmark yields are obtained from various sources including market participants, dealers and brokers. Common collective/commingled trusts and alternative investments are measured at net asset value. The valuation for alternative investments is described in Note 1. The methods described above may produce a fair value that is not indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Hospital believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

The following is a summary of investments (by major class) that have restrictions on the Hospital's ability to redeem its investments at the measurement date, any unfunded capital commitments and the investments strategies of the investees as of March 31, 2016 (including investments accounted for using the equity method) (in thousands):

March 31,2016

4. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, other current assets and liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Carrying value approximates fair value for other noncurrent financial instruments, excluding long-term debt obligations and financial instruments included in the fair value tables. At March 31,2016 and December 31,2015, the fair value oflong-term debt obligations totaled approximately $2,144.9 million and $2,085.2 million, excluding capital leases and unamortized fair value adjustments. The fair value of long-term debt is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, using techniques consistent with the market approach. Valuations for long-term debt are based on quoted market prices for related bonds.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

Various investigations, lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of operations are pending or on appeal against the Hospital. While the ultimate effect of such actions cannot be determined at this time, it is the opinion of management that the liabilities which may arise from such actions would not materially affect the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Hospital.

6. Subsequent Events

Subsequent events have been evaluated through May 27,2016, which is the date the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements were issued.

Payment of the interest on each Interest Payment Date shall be made to the Person whose name appears on the bond registration books of the Trustee as the Holder thereof as of the close of business on the Record Date for each Interest Payment Date, such interest to be paid by check mailed by first class mail to such Holder at its address as it appears on such registration books, or, upon the written request of any Holder of at least $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 2016 Bonds, submitted to the Trustee at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account within the United States designated by such Holder.

The Bonds shall then be delivered to the Trustee for authentication by it. In case any officer who shall have signed any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officer of the Hospital before the Bonds so signed shall have been authenticated or delivered by the Trustee or issued by the Hospital, such Bonds may nevertheless be authenticated, delivered and issued and, upon such authentication, delivery and issue, shall be as binding upon the Hospital as though those who signed the same had continued to be such officer of the Hospital, and also any Bond may be signed on behalf of the Hospital by such Person as at the actual date of execution of such Bond shall be the proper officer of the Hospital although at the nominal date of such Bond any such Person shall not have been such officer of the Hospital.

Only such of the Bonds as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form hereinbefore recited, manually executed by an authorized signatory of the Trustee, shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or entitled to the benefits of this Indenture, and such certificate of the Trustee shall be conclusive evidence that the Bonds so authenticated have been duly executed, authenticated and delivered hereunder and are entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Whenever any Bond or Bonds shall be surrendered for transfer, the Hospital shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Bond or Bonds of the same series, bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date, for a like aggregate principal amount in Authorized Denominations. The Trustee may require the Bondholder requesting such transfer to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer, and the Trustee may also require the Bondholder requesting such transfer to pay a reasonable sum to cover any expenses incurred by the Hospital in connection with such transfer. The Trustee shall not be required to transfer (i) any Bond during the fifteen (15) days next preceding the selection of Bonds for redemption or (ii) any Bond called for redemption.

11

SECTION 2.06 Exchange of Bonds. Bonds may be exchanged at the Designated Office of the Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount of Bonds of the same series, bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date of other Authorized Denominations. The Trustee may require the Bondholder requesting such exchange to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange, and the Trustee may also require the Bondholder requesting such exchange to pay a reasonable sum to cover any expenses incurred by the Hospital in connection with such exchange.

A temporary Bond may be in the form of a single fully registered Bond payable in installments, each on the date, in the amount and at the rate of interest established for the Bonds. Every temporary Bond shall be executed by the Hospital and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner as the definitive Bonds. If the Hospital issues temporary Bonds it will issue definitive Bonds as promptly thereafter as practicable, and thereupon the temporary Bonds may be surrendered, for cancellation, in exchange therefor at the Designated Office of the Trustee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Bonds an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Bonds of the same series, bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date of Authorized Denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Bonds authenticated and delivered hereunder.

SECTION 2.09 Bonds Mutilated, Lost, Destroyed or Stolen. If any Bond shall become mutilated, the Hospital, at the expense of the Holder of said Bond, shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor in exchange and substitution for the Bond so mutilated, but only upon surrender to the Trustee of the Bond so mutilated. Every mutilated Bond so surrendered to the Trustee shall be cancelled by it and delivered to, or upon the order of, the Hospital. If any Bond shall be lost, destroyed or stolen, evidence of such loss, destruction or theft may be submitted to the Trustee and, if such evidence be satisfactory to it and indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee and the Hospital shall be given, the Hospital, at the expense of the Holder, shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor in lieu of and in substitution for the Bond so lost, destroyed or stolen (or if any such Bond shall have matured or shall be about to mature, instead of issuing a substitute Bond, the Trustee may pay the same without surrender thereof). The Trustee may

12

require payment of a sum not exceeding the actual cost of preparing each new Bond issued under this Section 2.09 and of the expenses which may be incurred by the Hospital and the Trustee in complying with this Section 2.09. Any Bond issued under the provisions of this Section 2.09 in lieu of any Bond alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation on the part of the Hospital whether or not the Bond so alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture with all other Bonds secured by this Indenture.

No Person other than the Securities Depository shall receive an authenticated Bond evidencing the obligation of the Hospital to make payments of principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of and interest pursuant to this Indenture. Upon delivery by the Securities Depository to the Trustee of written notice to the effect that the Securities Depository has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., the words “Cede & Co.” in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of the Securities Depository.

(C) In the event the Hospital determines that it is in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners that they be able to obtain Bond certificates, the Hospital may so notify the Securities Depository and the Trustee, whereupon the Securities Depository will notify the Participants of the availability through the Securities Depository of Bond certificates. In such event, the Trustee shall issue, transfer and exchange Bond certificates as requested by the Securities Depository in appropriate amounts and in authorized denominations. Whenever the Securities Depository requests the Hospital and the Trustee to do so, the Trustee and the Hospital will cooperate with the Securities Depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice to make available Bonds registered in whatever name or names the Beneficial Owners transferring or exchanging Bonds shall designate.

(D) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as any Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Securities Depository, all payments with respect to the principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of and

16

interest on such Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, to the Securities Depository as provided in the Representation Letter, which is on file with the Hospital.

(E) Notwithstanding any provision in ARTICLE IV to the contrary, so long as all of the Bonds Outstanding are held in the Book-Entry System, if less than all of such Bonds are to be redeemed upon any redemption of Bonds hereunder, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the Securities Depository in such manner as the Securities Depository may determine.

SECTION 4.03 Selection of Bonds for Redemption. Whenever provision is made in this Indenture for the redemption of less than all of the Bonds of a maturity, the Trustee shall select the Bonds to be redeemed from all Bonds subject to redemption or such given portion thereof not previously called for redemption, pro rata in any manner that is customary in the industry; provided, the Hospital may select the maturity if there is more than one maturity then outstanding.

SECTION 4.04 Notice of Redemption.

(A) Notice of redemption shall be mailed by the Hospital to the Trustee by first class mail, not less than forty-five (45) days, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, or such fewer days as may be agreed to between the Hospital and the Trustee. Notice of redemption shall be mailed by the Trustee by first class mail, not less than thirty (30) days, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, to the respective Holders of any Bonds designated for redemption at their addresses appearing on the bond registration books of the Trustee. If the Bonds are no longer held by the Securities Depository or its successor or substitute, the Trustee shall also give notice of redemption by overnight mail to such securities depositories and/or securities information services as shall be designated in a Certificate of the Hospital. Each notice of redemption shall state the date of such notice, the date of issue of the Bonds, the redemption date, the method of calculating the Make-Whole Redemption Price, the interest rate, the place or places of redemption (including the name and appropriate address or addresses of the Trustee), the maturity (including CUSIP number, if any), and, in the case of Bonds to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Each such notice shall also state that on said date there will become due and payable on each of said Bonds the Make-Whole Redemption Price thereof or of said specified portion of the principal amount thereof in the case of a Bond to be redeemed in part only, together with interest accrued thereon to the redemption date, and that from and after such redemption date interest thereon shall cease to accrue, and shall require that such Bonds be then surrendered.

(B) Notice of redemption of Bonds shall be given by the Trustee, at the expense of the Hospital, for and on behalf of the Hospital.

(C) Failure by the Trustee to give notice pursuant to this Section 4.04 to any one or more of the securities information services or depositories designated by the Hospital, or the insufficiency of any such notice shall not affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption. Failure by the Trustee to mail notice of redemption pursuant to this Section 4.04 to

17

any one or more of the respective Holders of any Bonds designated for redemption shall not affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption with respect to the Holders to whom such notice was mailed.

(D) The Hospital may instruct the Trustee to provide conditional notice of redemption, which may be conditioned upon the receipt of moneys or any other event. If such conditions are not met, the Trustee shall give notice, as soon thereafter as practicable, in the same manner, to the same Persons, as notice of such redemption was given pursuant to this Section 4.04. Additionally, any conditional notice given pursuant to this Section 4.04(D) may be rescinded by written notice given to the Trustee by the Hospital no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date specified for redemption. The Trustee shall give notice of such rescission, as soon thereafter as practicable, in the same manner, to the same Persons, as notice of such redemption was given pursuant to this Section 4.04.

SECTION 4.05 Partial Redemption of Bonds.

(E) The Trustee may commingle any of the funds or accounts established pursuant to this Indenture into a separate fund or funds for investment purposes only, provided that all funds or accounts held by the Trustee hereunder shall be accounted for separately as required by this Indenture. The Trustee or its affiliates may act as sponsor, depository, advisor, principal or agent in the making or disposing of any investment. The Trustee is hereby authorized, in making or disposing of any investment permitted by this Section 5.07, to deal with itself (in its individual capacity) or with any one or more of its affiliates, whether it or such affiliate is acting as an agent of the Trustee or for any third person or dealing as principal for its own account.

(D) Reporting Requirements; Access to Records. Consistent with the continuing disclosure requirements of SEC Rule 15c2-12 relating to its tax-exempt publicly traded bonds, the Hospital is obligated to file an annual financial report with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the “MSRB”) pursuant to continuing disclosure agreements relating to such tax-exempt debt offerings.

The Trustee, as appropriate, may exercise all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to securities in the Indenture Fund, including without limitation the Bond Fund and the Redemption Fund, including the right to sell or redeem such securities and the right to retain the securities in satisfaction of the obligation of the Hospital hereunder. Notice sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or delivered during business hours, to the Hospital at least seven (7) days before an event under Uniform Commercial Code Sections 9-610 and 9-611, or any successor provision of law shall constitute reasonable notification of such event.

SECTION 7.04 Application of Moneys Collected by the Trustee. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all moneys then held or thereafter received by the Trustee under any of the provisions of this Indenture (subject to Section 11.09) shall be applied by the Trustee as follows and in the following order:

(A) To the payment of any expenses necessary in the opinion of the Trustee to protect the interests of the Holders of the Bonds and payment of reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee (including reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel) incurred in and about the performance of its powers and duties under this Indenture; and

(B) To the payment of the principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of and interest then due on the Bonds (upon presentation of the Bonds to be paid, and stamping thereon of the payment if only partially paid, or surrender thereof if fully paid) subject to the provisions of this Indenture, as follows:

(1) Unless the principal of all of the Bonds shall have become or have been declared due and payable,

First: To the payment to the Persons entitled thereto of all installments of interest then due in the order of the maturity of such installments, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay in full any installment or installments due on the same date, then to the payment thereof ratably, according to the amounts due thereon, to the Persons entitled thereto, without any discrimination or preference; and

Second: To the payment to the Persons entitled thereto of the unpaid principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of any Bonds which shall have become due, whether at maturity or by call for redemption, in the order of their due dates, with interest

30

on the overdue principal at the rate borne by the Bonds, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay in full all the Bonds due on any date, together with such interest, then to the payment thereof ratably, according to the amounts of principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price due on such date to the Persons entitled thereto, without any discrimination or preference.

(2) If the principal of all of the Bonds shall have become or have been declared due and payable, to the payment of the principal and interest then due and unpaid upon the Bonds, with interest on the overdue principal at the rate borne by the Bonds, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due and unpaid, then to the payment thereof ratably, without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Bond over any other Bond, according to the amounts due respectively for principal and interest, to the Persons entitled thereto without any discrimination or preference.

SECTION 7.05 Trustee to Represent Bondholders. The Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed (and the successive respective Holders of the Bonds, by taking and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have so appointed the Trustee) as trustee and true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Holders of the Bonds for the purpose of exercising and prosecuting on their behalf such rights and remedies as may be available to such Holders under the provisions of the Bonds, this Indenture and applicable provisions of any law. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or other occasion giving rise to a right in the Trustee to represent the Bondholders, the Trustee in its discretion may, and upon the written request of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction therefor, shall, proceed to protect or enforce its rights or the rights of such Holders by such appropriate action, suit, mandamus or other proceedings as it shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such right, at law or in equity, either for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable right or remedy vested in the Trustee, or in such Holders under the Bonds, this Indenture or any applicable law; and upon instituting such proceeding, the Trustee shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to the appointment of a receiver of the amounts pledged under this Indenture, pending such proceedings. All rights of action under this Indenture or the Bonds or otherwise may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Bonds or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such suit, action or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in the name of the Trustee for the benefit and protection of all the Holders of such Bonds, subject to the provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 7.06 Bondholders’ Direction of Proceedings. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding shall have the right, by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing executed and delivered to the Trustee, and upon indemnifying the Trustee to its satisfaction therefor, to direct the time, method and place of conducting all remedial proceedings taken by the Trustee hereunder, provided that such direction shall not be otherwise than in accordance with law and the provisions of this Indenture, and that

31

the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction which in the opinion of the Trustee would be unjustly prejudicial to Bondholders not parties to such direction.

SECTION 7.07 Limitation on Bondholders’ Right to Sue. No Holder of any Bond shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, for the protection or enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or any applicable law with respect to such Bond, unless (1) such Holder shall have given to the Trustee written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default; (2) the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such suit, action or proceeding in its own name; (3) such Holder or said Holders shall have tendered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; and (4) the Trustee shall have refused or omitted to comply with such request for a period of sixty (60) days after such written request shall have been received by, and said tender of indemnity shall have been made to, the Trustee.

Such notification, request, tender of indemnity and refusal or omission are hereby declared, in every case, to be conditions precedent to the exercise by any Holder of Bonds of any remedy hereunder or under law; it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Bonds shall have any right in any manner whatever by his or their action to affect, disturb or prejudice the security of this Indenture or the rights of any other Holders of Bonds, or to enforce any right under this Indenture or applicable law with respect to the Bonds, except in the manner herein provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity to enforce any such right shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the benefit and protection of all Holders of the Outstanding Bonds, subject to the provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 7.08 Absolute Obligation of Hospital. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, or in the Bonds, nothing shall affect or impair the obligation of the Hospital, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of and interest on the Bonds to the respective Holders of the Bonds at their respective dates of maturity, or upon call for redemption, as herein provided, or, subject to Section 7.07, affect or impair the right of such Holders to enforce such payment by virtue of the contract embodied in the Bonds.

SECTION 7.09 Termination of Proceedings. In case any proceedings taken by the Trustee or any one or more Bondholders on account of any Event of Default shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee or the Bondholders, then in every such case the Hospital, the Trustee and the Bondholders, subject to any determination in such proceedings, shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, severally and respectively, and all rights, remedies, powers and duties of the Hospital, the Trustee and the Bondholders shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

SECTION 7.10 Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Bonds is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every such remedy, to the extent permitted by law, shall be

32

cumulative and in addition to any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.

SECTION 7.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of the Bonds to exercise any right or power arising upon the occurrence of any Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by this Indenture to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Bonds may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.

SECTION 7.12 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Trustee may, and upon request of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds shall, on behalf of the Holders of all the Bonds waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences, except a Default:

(A) In the payment of the principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of or interest on any Bond, or

(B) In respect of a covenant or other provision of this Indenture which, pursuant to Section 9.01, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Bond affected.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 7.13 Undertaking for Costs. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.05, the parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Bond by such Person’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 7.13 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee or to any suit instituted by any Bondholder or group of Bondholders holding in the aggregate more than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds.

SECTION 7.14 Notice of Default.

(A) Upon a Responsible Officer’s actual knowledge of the existence of any Default under this Indenture, the Trustee shall notify the Hospital in writing as soon as practicable, but in any event within five (5) Business Days.

(B) Upon a Responsible Officer’s actual knowledge of the existence of any Event of Default under this Indenture, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Bondholders, as their names and addresses appear in the bond register, notice of such Event of Default hereunder

33

within thirty (30) days; provided, however, that, except in the case of an Event of Default in the payment of the principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of or interest on any Bond, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Bondholders.

SECTION 7.15 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

(A) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Hospital or any other obligor upon the Bonds or the property of the Hospital or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Bonds shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Hospital for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(1) To file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (or Make-Whole Redemption Price) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Bonds and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel including expenses and fees of outside counsel and allocated costs of internal legal counsel) and of the Bondholders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(2) To collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Bondholder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Bondholders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel including expenses and fees of outside counsel and allocated costs of internal legal counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under this Indenture.

(B) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Bondholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Bonds or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Bondholder in any such proceeding.

ARTICLE VIII

THE TRUSTEE

SECTION 8.01 Duties, Immunities and Liabilities of Trustee.

(A) The Trustee shall, prior to an Event of Default, and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default which may have occurred, perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and, except to the extent required by law, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall, during the existence of any Event of Default (which has not been cured or waived), exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(B) The Hospital may remove the Trustee at any time unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, and shall remove the Trustee if at any time requested to do so by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding (or their attorneys duly authorized in writing) or if at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with subsection (E) of this Section 8.01, or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take control or charge of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, in each case by giving written notice of such removal to the Trustee, and thereupon shall appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing.

(C) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Hospital and by giving the Bondholders notice of such resignation by mail at the addresses shown on the registration books maintained by the Trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Hospital shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing. The Trustee shall not be relieved of its duties until such successor Trustee has accepted appointment.

(D) Any removal or resignation of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days of giving notice of removal or notice of resignation as aforesaid, the resigning Trustee or any Bondholder (on behalf of itself and all other Bondholders) may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee, and such court may thereupon, after such notice (if any) as it may deem proper, appoint such successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed under this Indenture, shall signify its acceptance of such appointment by executing and delivering to the Hospital and to its predecessor Trustee a written acceptance thereof, and thereupon such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such predecessor Trustee, with like effect as if originally named Trustee herein; but, nevertheless at the request of the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee shall

35

execute and deliver any and all instruments of conveyance or further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all the right, title and interest of such predecessor Trustee in and to any property held by it under this Indenture and shall pay over, transfer, assign and deliver to the successor Trustee any money or other property subject to the trusts and conditions herein set forth. Upon request of the successor Trustee, the Hospital shall execute and deliver any and all instruments as may be reasonably required for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in this subsection, the successor Trustee shall mail or cause to be mailed (at the expense of the Hospital) a notice of the succession of such Trustee to the trusts hereunder to the Bondholders at the addresses shown on the registration books maintained by the Trustee.

(E) Any successor Trustee shall be a trust company or bank having trust powers in the State of New York, having a combined capital and surplus of (or if such trust company or bank is a member of a bank holding system, its bank holding company shall have a combined capital and surplus of) at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000), and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state of authority. If such bank or trust company publishes a report of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority above referred to, then for the purpose of this subsection the combined capital and surplus of such bank or trust company shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this subsection (E), the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 8.01.

(F) Merger or Consolidation. Any company into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any company resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which it shall be a party or any company to which the Trustee may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business, provided such company shall be eligible under subsection (E) of Section 8.01, shall be the successor to such Trustee without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

SECTION 8.02 Liability of Trustee.

(A) The Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the recitals of fact herein except as they specifically apply to the Trustee, and makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Bonds, nor shall the Trustee incur any responsibility in respect thereof, other than in connection with the duties or obligations herein or in the Bonds assigned to or imposed upon it and except for any recital or representation specifically relating to the Trustee or its powers. The Trustee shall, however, be responsible for its representations contained in its certificate of authentication on the Bonds. The Trustee shall not be liable in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, except for its own negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct.

36

(B) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

(C) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority (or such lesser or greater number as this Indenture may permit to direct the Trustee) in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Indenture.

(D) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Bondholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture unless such Bondholders shall have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby. The Trustee has no obligation or liability to the Holders for the payment of interest, principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price with respect to the Bonds from its own funds; but rather the Trustee’s obligations shall be limited to the performance of its duties hereunder.

(E) Except with respect to Events of Default specified in Section 7.01(A) or Section 7.01(B), the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and until a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge thereof or the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Hospital or the holders of at least five percent (5%) in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds at the Designated Office. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the validity or effectiveness of any collateral given to or held by it.

(F) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through attorneys-in-fact, agents or receivers. The Trustee shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other professionals concerning all matters of trust and its duty hereunder.

(G) The Trustee shall not be concerned with or accountable to anyone for the subsequent use or application of any moneys or Bond proceeds that shall be released or withdrawn in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(H) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII.

(I) The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to any information, statement, or recital in any official statement, offering memorandum or any other disclosure material prepared or distributed with respect to the Bonds and shall have no responsibility for compliance with any state or federal securities laws in connection with the Bonds.

(J) The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty.

37

SECTION 8.03 Right of Trustee to Rely on Documents. The Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond, statement, requisition, facsimile transmission, electronic mail or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Trustee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel of or to the Hospital, with regard to legal questions, and the opinion or written advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance therewith.

The Trustee shall not be bound to recognize any Person as the Holder of a Bond unless and until such Bond is submitted for inspection, if required, and such Person’s title thereto is satisfactorily established, if disputed.

Whenever in the administration of the trusts imposed upon it by this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a Certificate of the Hospital, and such Certificate shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or suffered in good faith under the provisions of this Indenture in reliance upon such Certificate, but in its discretion the Trustee may, in lieu thereof, accept other evidence of such matter or may require such additional evidence as to it may deem reasonable.

SECTION 8.04 Preservation and Inspection of Documents. All documents received by the Trustee under the provisions of this Indenture shall be retained in its possession and shall be subject upon prior written notice to the inspection of the Hospital and any Bondholder, and their agents and representatives duly authorized in writing, at reasonable hours and under reasonable conditions, until ninety (90) days after the termination of this Indenture.

SECTION 8.05 Compensation and Indemnification.

(A) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers, if it has not received the agreed compensation for such services or, in cases where the Trustee has a right to reimbursement or indemnification for such performance or exercise, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(B) The Hospital further covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee, and its officers, directors, employees, and agents against any loss, expense and liabilities that it may incur arising out of or in connection with (1) the exercise and performance of the Trustee’s powers and duties hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof or (2) the sale of any Bonds and the carrying out of any of the transactions contemplated by the Bonds or related documents, including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability, but excluding liabilities that are due to the Trustee’s negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of the Hospital under this Section 8.05 shall survive resignation or removal of the Trustee under this Indenture and payment of the Bonds and discharge of this Indenture.

38

SECTION 8.06 Notice to Rating Agency. The Trustee shall give written notice to each Rating Agency then rating the Bonds if (1) a successor Trustee is appointed hereunder, (2) if this Indenture is amended or supplemented, (3) if the Bonds are paid and this Indenture defeased pursuant to Section 10.01, (4) if the Bonds are accelerated pursuant to Section 7.02, or (5) if the Bonds are redeemed in whole or in part pursuant to Section 4.01, provided that the Trustee shall incur no liability for failure to give any such notice.

ARTICLE IX

MODIFICATION OR AMENDMENT OF THE INDENTURE

SECTION 9.01 Amendments Permitted.

(A) This Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Hospital and of the Holders of the Bonds and of the Trustee may be modified or amended from time to time and at any time by an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto, which the Hospital and the Trustee may enter into when the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding shall have been filed with the Trustee. No such modification or amendment shall (1) extend the fixed maturity of any Bond, or reduce the amount of principal thereof, or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, without the consent of the Holder of each Bond so affected or (2) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Bonds the consent of the Holders of which is required to effect any such modification or amendment, or permit the creation of any lien on the Indenture Fund or the amounts pledged under this Indenture prior to or on a parity with the lien created by this Indenture, or deprive the Holders of the Bonds of the lien created by this Indenture on the Indenture Fund and such amounts (except as expressly provided in this Indenture), without the consent of the Holders of all Bonds then Outstanding. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Bondholders to approve the particular form of any Supplemental Indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. Promptly after the execution by the Hospital and the Trustee of any Supplemental Indenture pursuant to this subsection (A), the Trustee shall mail a notice, setting forth in general terms the substance of such Supplemental Indenture, to the Bondholders at the addresses shown on the registration books maintained by the Trustee. Any failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such Supplemental Indenture.

(B) This Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Hospital, of the Trustee and of the Holders of the Bonds may also be modified or amended from time to time and at any time by an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto, which the Hospital and the Trustee may enter into without the necessity of obtaining the consent of any Bondholders, but only to the extent permitted by law and only for any one or more of the following purposes:

(1) to add to the covenants and agreements of the Hospital contained in this Indenture other covenants and agreements thereafter to be observed, to pledge or assign additional security for the Bonds (or any portion thereof), or to surrender any right or power herein reserved to or conferred upon the Hospital, provided that such covenant,

39

agreement, pledge, assignment or surrender shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Bonds;

(2) to make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, inconsistency or omission, or of curing or correcting any defective provision, contained in this Indenture, or in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture, as the Hospital or the Trustee may deem necessary or desirable and not inconsistent with this Indenture, and which shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Bonds;

(3) to modify, amend or supplement this Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture in such manner as to permit the qualification hereof under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, or any similar federal statute hereafter in effect, and to add such other terms, conditions and provisions as may be permitted by said act or similar federal statute, and which shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Bonds (provided, however, that such modifications, amendments, supplements and additions shall be permitted under this subsection (B) only if qualification under said act or similar federal statute is required by applicable law now or hereafter in effect);

(4) to provide for the procedures required to permit any Bondholder, at its option, to utilize an uncertificated system of registration of its Bond or to facilitate the registration of the Bonds in the name of a nominee of the Securities Depository in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10; or

(5) to authorize the issuance of Additional Bonds in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11.

(C) The Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such Supplemental Indenture authorized by subsections (A) or (B) of this Section 9.01 which materially adversely affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

SECTION 9.02 Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any Supplemental Indenture pursuant to this ARTICLE IX, this Indenture shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith, and the respective rights, duties and obligations under this Indenture of the Hospital, the Trustee and all Holders of Bonds Outstanding shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modification and amendment, and all the terms and conditions of any such Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

SECTION 9.03 Endorsement of Bonds; Preparation of New Bonds. Bonds delivered after the execution of any Supplemental Indenture pursuant to this ARTICLE IX may, and if the Hospital so determines shall, bear a notation by endorsement or otherwise in form approved by the Hospital and the Trustee as to any modification or amendment provided for in such Supplemental Indenture, and, in that case, upon demand of the Holder of any Bond

40

Outstanding at the time of such execution and presentation of such Bond for the purpose at the Designated Office of the Trustee or at such additional offices as the Trustee may select and designate for that purpose, a suitable notation shall be made on such Bond. If the Supplemental Indenture shall so provide, new Bonds so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Hospital (which may be based on an Opinion of Counsel, in the sole discretion of the Hospital), to any modification or amendment contained in such Supplemental Indenture, shall be prepared by the Trustee at the expense of the Hospital, executed by the Hospital and authenticated by the Trustee, and, subject to the provisions of Section 4.02, while the Bonds remain in the Book-Entry System, upon demand of the Holders of any Bonds then Outstanding shall be exchanged at the Designated Office of the Trustee, without cost to any Bondholder, for Bonds then Outstanding, upon surrender for cancellation of such Bonds, in equal aggregate principal amounts of the same series and maturity and bearing interest at the same rate.

SECTION 9.04 Amendment of Particular Bonds. The provisions of this ARTICLE IX shall not prevent any Bondholder from accepting any amendment as to the particular Bonds held by such Bondholder, provided that due notation thereof is made on such Bonds.

ARTICLE X

DEFEASANCE

SECTION 10.01 Discharge of Indenture. The Bonds may be paid or discharged by the Hospital or the Trustee on behalf of the Hospital in any of the following ways:

(A) by paying or causing to be paid the principal or Make-Whole Redemption Price of and interest on all Bonds Outstanding, as and when the same become due and payable;

(B) by depositing with the Trustee, in trust, at or before maturity, moneys or securities in the necessary amount (as provided in Section 10.03) to pay when due or redeem all Bonds then Outstanding; or

(C) by delivering to the Trustee, for cancellation by it, all Bonds then Outstanding.

If the Hospital shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Hospital, then and in that case at the election of the Hospital (evidenced by a Certificate of the Hospital filed with the Trustee signifying the intention of the Hospital to discharge all such indebtedness and this Indenture), and notwithstanding that any Bonds shall not have been surrendered for payment, this Indenture and the pledge of the Indenture Fund and all amounts held therein made under this Indenture and all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the Hospital under this Indenture (except as otherwise provided in Section 8.05) shall cease, terminate, become void and be completely discharged and satisfied and the Bonds shall be deemed paid.

ERISA PROVISIONS

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and the Code generally prohibit certain transactions between employee benefit plans under ERISA or tax-qualified retirement plans under the Code, (collectively, the “Plans”) and persons who, with respect to a Plan, are fiduciaries or other “parties in interest” within the meaning of ERISA or “disqualified persons” within the meaning of the Code. In addition, each fiduciary of a Plan (a “Plan Fiduciary”) must give appropriate consideration to the facts and circumstances that are relevant to an investment in the Bonds, including the roles that such an investment in the Bonds would play in the Plan’s overall investment portfolio. Each Plan Fiduciary, before deciding to invest in the Bonds, must be satisfied that such investment in the Bonds is a prudent investment for the Plan, that the investments of the Plan, including the investment in the Bonds, are diversified so as to minimize the risk of large losses and that an investment in the Bonds complies with the documents of the Plan and related trust, to the extent such documents are consistent with ERISA. All Plan Fiduciaries, in consultation with their advisers, should carefully consider the impact of ERISA and the Code on an investment in any Bond, including the applicability to such investment of the fiduciary responsibility and prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the Code or similar laws.

(a) Except as may otherwise be required in a Related Loan Agreement, each Member of the Obligated Group agrees that it will maintain, or cause to be maintained, and will cause each of its Designated Affiliates to maintain, insurance (including one or more self-insurance programs considered to be adequate) covering such risks in such amounts and with such deductibles and co-insurance provisions as, in the judgment of its Governing Body, are adequate to protect it and its Property and operations.

(b) The Obligated Group Representative shall engage an Insurance Consultant to review the insurance requirements of the Members of the Combined Group from time to time (but not less frequently than biennially), and the Obligated Group shall file a copy of such report as required pursuant to Section 3.08(d) hereof. If the Insurance Consultant makes recommendations for the increase of any coverage, the applicable Member of the 14

Obligated Group shall increase or cause to be increased such coverage in accordance with such recommendations, subject to a good faith determination of the Governing Body of such Member that such recommendations, in whole or in part, are in the best interests of the Combined Group. If the Insurance Consultant makes recommendations for the decrease or elimination of any coverage, the Member of the Combined Group may decrease or eliminate such coverage in accordance with such recommendations, subject to a good faith determination of the Governing Body of the Obligated Group Representative that such recommendations, in whole or in part, are in the best interests of the Combined Group. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, each Member of the Combined Group shall have the right, without giving rise to an Event of Default solely on such account, (i) to maintain insurance coverage below that most recently recommended by the Insurance Consultant, if the Obligated Group Representative furnishes to the Master Trustee a report of the Insurance Consultant to the effect that the insurance so provided affords either the greatest amount of coverage available for the risk being insured against at rates which in the judgment of the Insurance Consultant are reasonable in connection with reasonable and appropriate risk management, or the greatest amount of coverage necessary by reason of state or federal laws now or hereafter in existence limiting medical and malpractice liability, or (ii) to adopt alternative risk management programs which the Insurance Consultant determines to be reasonable, including, without limitation, to self-insure in whole or in part individually or in connection with other institutions, to participate in programs of captive insurance companies, to participate with other health care institutions in mutual or other cooperative insurance or other risk management programs, to participate in state or federal insurance programs, to take advantage of state or federal laws now or hereafter in existence limiting medical and malpractice liability, or to establish or participate in other alternative risk management programs; all as may be approved by the Insurance Consultant as reasonable and appropriate risk management by the Combined Group. If any Member of the Combined Group shall be self-insured for any coverage, the report of the Insurance Consultant mentioned above shall state whether the anticipated funding of any self-insurance fund is actuarially sound, and if not, the required funding to produce such result and such coverage shall be reviewed by the Insurance Consultant not less frequently than annually.

Section 3.04. Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds. (a) Unless otherwise provided in Related Loan Agreements, amounts that do not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Value of the Property, Plant and Equipment of the Combined Group received by any Member of the Combined Group as insurance proceeds with respect to any casualty loss relating to the Health Care Facilities or as condemnation awards relating to the Health Care Facilities may be used in such manner as the recipient may determine, including, without limitation, applying such moneys to the payment or prepayment of any Indebtedness in accordance with the terms thereof and of any pertinent Supplement.

(b) Unless otherwise provided in the Related Loan Agreements, each Member of the Obligated Group shall, and shall cause each of its Designated Affiliates to, apply amounts that exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Value of the Property, Plant and Equipment of the Combined Group received by any Member of the Combined Group as insurance proceeds with respect to any casualty loss relating to the Health Care Facilities or as condemnation awards relating to the Health Care Facilities to repair or replace the Property (either Property serving the same function or other Property that, in the judgment of the Governing Body, is of equal usefulness) to which such proceeds relate or to the payment or prepayment of Indebtedness in accordance with the terms thereof and of any pertinent Supplement; provided, however, that, subject to the terms of the Related Loan Agreements, such amounts may be used in such manner as the recipient may determine, if the recipient notifies the Master Trustee and within twelve (12) months after the casualty loss or taking, delivers to the Master Trustee:

(i) (A) An Officer’s Certificate of the Obligated Group Representative certifying the forecasted Long-Term Debt Service Coverage Ratio for each of the two Fiscal Years following the date on which such proceeds or awards are forecasted to have been fully applied, which Long-Term Debt Service Coverage Ratio for each such period is not less than 1.50, as shown by pro forma financial statements for each such period, accompanied by a statement of the relevant assumptions including assumptions as to the use of such proceeds or awards, upon which such pro forma statements are based; and (B) if the amount of such proceeds or awards received with respect to any casualty loss or condemnation exceeds thirty percent (30%) of the Value of the Property, Plant and Equipment of the Combined Group, a written report of an Independent Consultant confirming such certification; or

15

(ii) A written report of an Independent Consultant stating the Independent Consultant’s recommendations, including recommendations as to the use of such proceeds or awards, to cause the Long-Term Debt Service Coverage Ratio for each of the periods described in subsection (i) of this section to be not less than 1.10, or, if in the opinion of the Independent Consultant the attainment of such level is impracticable, to the highest practicable level; and an Officer’s Certificate of the Obligated Group Representative certifying that the recipient will use such proceeds in accordance with the recommendations contained in the Independent Consultant’s report.

Each Member of the Obligated Group agrees that it will use, and will cause its Designated Affiliates to use, such proceeds or awards, to the extent permitted by law and any Related Loan Agreement, only in accordance with the assumptions described in subsection (i), or the recommendations described in subsection (ii), of this Section.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, so long as any FHA-Insured Loan is outstanding, amounts received by any Member of the Combined Group as insurance proceeds with respect to any casualty loss relating to an FHA Project shall be applied in accordance with the terms and provisions of the FHA-Insured Loan Documents.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, the Master Trustee may and, upon the written request of the Holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of Obligations Outstanding or the holder of any Accelerable Instrument under which Accelerable Instrument an event of default exists (which event of default permits the holder thereof to request that the Master Trustee declare such Indebtedness evidenced by an Obligation due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable), shall, by notice to the Members of the Obligated Group declare all Obligations Outstanding immediately due and payable, whereupon such Obligations shall become and be immediately due and payable, anything in the Obligations or in any other section of this Master Trust Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding. In the event Obligations are accelerated there shall be due and payable on such Obligations an amount equal to the total principal amount of all such Obligations, plus all interest accrued thereon to the date of acceleration and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, which accrues to the date of payment.

(b) At any time after the principal of the Obligations shall have been so declared to be due and payable and before the entry of final judgment or decree in any suit, action or proceeding instituted on account of such default, if (i) the Obligated Group has paid or caused to be paid or deposited with the Master Trustee money sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and interest on installments of principal and interest and principal or redemption prices then due (other than the principal then due only because of such declaration) of all Obligations Outstanding; (ii) the Obligated Group has paid or caused to be paid or deposited with the Master Trustee money sufficient to pay the charges, compensation, expenses, disbursements, advances, fees and liabilities of the Master Trustee; (iii) all other amounts then payable by the Obligated Group hereunder shall have been paid or a sum sufficient to pay the same shall have been deposited with the Master Trustee; and (iv) every Event of Default (other than a default in the payment of the principal of such Obligations then due only because of such declaration) shall have been remedied or waived pursuant to Section 4.09 hereof, then the Master Trustee may, and upon the written request of Holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Obligations Outstanding or the holder of any Accelerable Instrument described in Section 4.02(a) above shall, annul such declaration and its consequences with respect to any Obligations or portions thereof not then due by their terms. No such annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 4.03. Additional Remedies and Enforcement of Remedies. (a)Upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default, the Master Trustee may, and upon the written request of the Holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Obligations Outstanding or the holder of any Accelerable Instrument or upon the request of the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, with respect to any series of Obligations or Related Bonds, together with indemnification of the Master Trustee to its satisfaction therefor, shall, proceed forthwith to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders hereunder by such suits, actions or proceedings as the Master Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem expedient, including but not limited to:

(i) Enforcement of the right of the Holders to collect and enforce the payment of amounts due or becoming due under the Obligations;

(ii) Bring suit upon all or any part of the Obligations;

24

(iii) Civil action to require any Person holding moneys, documents or other property pledged to secure payment of amounts due or to become due on the Obligations to account as if it were the trustee of an express trust for the Holders;

(iv) Civil action to enjoin any acts or things, which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the Holders;

(vi) Enforcement of any mortgage granted by any Member of the Obligated Group to secure any one or more Obligations; and

(vii) Enforcement of any other right of the Holders conferred by law or hereby.

(b) Regardless of the happening of an Event of Default, the Master Trustee, if requested in writing by the Holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Obligations then Outstanding or the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, with respect to a series of Obligations or Related Bonds, shall, upon being indemnified to its satisfaction therefor, institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may be advised shall be necessary or expedient (i) to prevent any impairment of the security hereunder by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation hereof, or (ii) to preserve or protect the interests of the Holders, provided that such request and the action to be taken by the Master Trustee are not in conflict with any applicable law or the provisions hereof and, in the sole judgment of the Master Trustee, are not unduly prejudicial to the interest of the Holders not making such request.

(c) In addition to any remedies enforceable pursuant to the Master Trust Indenture, upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default under the Master Trust Indenture, the Master Trustee may, and upon the written request of the Holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Obligations Outstanding, as provided in Section 4.03(a) of the Master Trust Indenture, together with indemnification of the Master Trustee to its satisfaction therefor, shall, proceed forthwith to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders under the Master Trust Indenture by such suits, actions, foreclosure proceedings or other proceedings as the Master Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem expedient regarding enforcement of rights under the any mortgages granted to secure an Obligation issued hereunder. Any proceeds received from the enforcement of the rights of the Master Trustee as beneficiary under any particular mortgage shall be distributed by the Master Trustee, after the payment of any compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances then owing to the Master Trustee pursuant to Section 5.05 hereof, to satisfy any amounts then due and owing under any Obligations in accordance with the Master Trust Indenture.

Section 4.04. Application of Moneys after Default. During the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the expenditure of moneys to make any payments required to permit any Member of the Obligated Group to comply with any requirement or covenant in any Related Indenture to cause Related Bonds the interest on which, immediately prior to such Event of Default, is excludable from the gross income of the recipients thereof for federal income tax purposes under the Code to retain such status under the Code, all moneys received by the Master Trustee pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provisions of this Article shall be applied, after the payment of any compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances then owing to the Master Trustee pursuant to Section 5.05 hereof, in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03(c) hereof and, with respect to the payment of Obligations thereunder, as follows:

(a) Unless the principal of all Outstanding Obligations shall have become or have been declared due and payable:

First: To the payment to the Persons entitled thereto of all installments of interest then due on Obligations in the order of the maturity of such installments, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay in full any installment or installments maturing on the same date, then to the payment thereof ratably, according to the amounts due thereon to the Persons entitled thereto, without any discrimination or preference; 25

Second: To the payment to the Persons entitled thereto of the unpaid principal installments of any Obligations which shall have become due, whether at maturity or by call for redemption, in the order of their due dates, and if the amounts available shall not be sufficient to pay in full all Obligations due on any date, then to the payment thereof ratably, according to the amounts of principal installments due on such date, to the Persons entitled thereto, without any discrimination or preference; and

Third: To the extent there exists a Credit Facility Issuer with respect to any series of Obligations or Related Bonds, amounts owed to such Credit Facility Issuer by the Obligated Group and not otherwise paid under clauses First and Second above.

(b) If the principal of all Outstanding Obligations shall have become or have been declared due and payable, to the payment of the principal and interest then due and unpaid upon Obligations without preference or priority of principal over interest or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Obligation over any other Obligation, ratably, according to the amounts due respectively for principal and interest, to the Persons entitled thereto without any discrimination or preference.

(c) If the principal of all Outstanding Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, and if such declaration shall thereafter have been rescinded and annulled under the provisions of this Article, then, subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section in the event that the principal of all Outstanding Obligations shall later become due or be declared due and payable, the moneys shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section.

Whenever moneys are to be applied by the Master Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section, such moneys shall be applied by it at such times, and from time to time, as the Master Trustee shall determine, having due regard for the amount of such moneys available for application and the likelihood of additional moneys becoming available for such application in the future. Whenever the Master Trustee shall apply such moneys, it shall fix the date upon which such application is to be made and upon such date interest on the amounts of principal to be paid on such dates shall cease to accrue. The Master Trustee shall give such notice as it may deem appropriate of the deposit with it of any such moneys and of the fixing of any such date, and shall not be required to make payment to the Holder of any unpaid Obligation until such Obligation shall be presented to the Master Trustee for appropriate endorsement of any partial payment or for cancellation if fully paid.

Whenever all Obligations and interest thereon have been paid under the provisions of this Section and all expenses and charges of the Master Trustee have been paid, any balance remaining shall be paid to the Person entitled to receive the same; if no other Person shall be entitled thereto, then the balance shall be paid to the Members of the Obligated Group, their respective successors, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

Section 4.05. Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy by the terms hereof conferred upon or reserved to the Master Trustee or the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or existing at law or in equity or by statute on or after the date hereof.

Section 4.06. Remedies Vested in the Master Trustee. All rights of action (including the right to file proof of claims) hereunder or under any of the Obligations may be enforced by the Master Trustee without the possession of any of the Obligations or the production thereof in any trial or other proceedings relating thereto. Any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Master Trustee may be brought in its name as the Master Trustee without the necessity of joining as plaintiffs or defendants any Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.04 hereof, any recovery or judgment shall be for the equal benefit of the Holders.

Section 4.07. Holders’ Control of Proceedings. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Obligations then Outstanding shall have the right, at any time, by an instrument in writing executed and delivered to the Master Trustee and accompanied by indemnity satisfactory to the Master Trustee, to direct the method and place of conducting any proceeding to be taken in connection with the enforcement of the terms and conditions hereof or for the appointment of a receiver or any other proceedings hereunder, provided that such direction is not in conflict with any applicable 26

law or the provisions hereof, and is not unduly prejudicial to the interest of any Holders not joining in such direction, and provided further, that the Master Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Master Trustee in good faith shall determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Master Trustee in personal liability, in the sole judgment of the Master Trustee, and provided further that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of the Master Trustee in its discretion to take any other action hereunder which it may deem proper and which is not inconsistent with such direction by the Holders; provided, further, however, that the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, with regard to any series of Obligations or any series of Related Bonds secured by Obligations, and not the Holders, shall have the right to control proceedings with respect thereto in the manner described in this Section.

Section 4.08. Termination of Proceedings. In case any proceeding taken by the Master Trustee on account of an Event of Default shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Master Trustee or to the Holders, then the Members of the Obligated Group, the Master Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Master Trustee and the Holders shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken.

Section 4.09. Waiver of Event of Default. (a) No delay or omission of the Master Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every power and remedy given by this Article to the Master Trustee and the Holders, respectively, may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by them.

(b) The Master Trustee, with the consent of the holder(s) of any Accelerable Instrument and the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, of any affected Obligations or Related Bonds may waive any Event of Default which in its opinion shall have been remedied before the entry of final judgment or decree in any suit, action or proceeding instituted by it under the provisions hereof, or before the completion of the enforcement of any other remedy hereunder.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Master Trustee, upon the written request of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Obligations then Outstanding, with the consent of the Credit Facility Issuer, if any, of any affected Obligations or Related Bonds, shall waive any Event of Default hereunder and its consequences; provided, however, that, except under the circumstances set forth in subsection (b) of Section 4.02 hereof, a default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Obligation, when the same shall become due and payable by the terms thereof or upon call for redemption, may not be waived without the written consent of the Holders of all the Obligations (with respect to which such payment default exists) at the time Outstanding.

(d) In case of any waiver by the Master Trustee of an Event of Default hereunder, the Members of the Obligated Group, the Master Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 4.10. Appointment of Receiver. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default unless the same shall have been waived as herein provided, the Master Trustee shall be entitled as a matter of right if it shall so elect, (i) forthwith and without declaring the Obligations to be due and payable, (ii) after declaring the same to be due and payable, or (iii) upon the commencement of an action to enforce the specific performance hereof or in aid thereof or upon the commencement of any other judicial proceeding to enforce any right of the Master Trustee or the Holders, to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of any or all of the Property of the Obligated Group with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer. Each Member of the Obligated Group, respectively, hereby consents and agrees, and will if requested by the Master Trustee consent and agree at the time of application by the Trustee for appointment of a receiver of its Property, to the appointment of such receiver of its Property and that such receiver may be given the right, power and authority, to the extent the same may lawfully be given, to take possession of and operate and deal with such Property and the revenues, profits and proceeds therefrom, with like effect as the Member of the Obligated Group could do so, and to borrow money and issue evidences of indebtedness as such receiver. 27

Section 4.11. Remedies Subject to Provisions of Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided by this Article may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Article are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this instrument or the provisions hereof invalid or unenforceable under the provisions of any applicable law.

Section 4.12. Notice of Default. The Master Trustee shall, within ten (10) days after it has actual knowledge of the occurrence of an Event of Default, mail, by first class mail, to all Holders as the names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the books of the Master Trustee, notice of such Event of Default known to the Master Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured before the giving of such notice; provided that, except in the case of default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Obligations and the Events of Default specified in subsections (e) and (f) of Section 4.01, the Master Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or any responsible officer of the Master Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.

(a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i) The Master Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Master Trust Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Master Trust Indenture against the Master Trustee; and

(ii) In the absence of negligence and willful misconduct on its part, the Master Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Master Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Master Trust Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Master Trustee, the Master Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not on their face they conform to the requirements of this Master Trust Indenture.

(b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Master Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Master Trust Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

(c) No provision of this Master Trust Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Master Trustee from liability for its own negligence or willful misconduct, except that:

(i) this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this Section;

(ii) the Master Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a chairman or vice-chairman of the board of directors, the chairman or vice-chairman of the executive committee of the board of directors, the president, any vice president (however designated), the secretary, any assistant secretary, the treasurer, any assistant treasurer, the cashier, any assistant cashier, any trust officer or assistant trust officer, the controller and any assistant controller or any other officer or employee of the Master Trustee customarily performing functions similar to those performed by any of the above designated officers or with respect to a particular matter, any other

(iv) no provision of this Master Trust Indenture shall require the Master Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial or other, liability, directly or indirectly, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Master Trust Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Master Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

Section 5.02. Certain Rights of Master Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.01:

(c) Whenever in the administration of this Master Trust Indenture the Master Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or willful misconduct on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate.

(d) The Master Trustee may consult with counsel or an independent auditor and the written advice of such counsel or independent auditor or any Opinion of Counsel or Opinion of Bond Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(e) The Master Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Master Trust Indenture whether on its own motion or at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Master Trust Indenture which shall likely involve expense or liability not otherwise provided for herein, unless there shall have been offered and furnished to the Master Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the Master Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction or otherwise in connection herewith.

(f) The Master Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, note or other paper or document, but the Master Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Master Trustee shall determine to make such 29

The Master Trustee may in good faith buy, sell or hold and deal in any Obligations and Related Bonds with like effect as if it were not such Master Trustee and may commence or join in any action which a Holder or holder of a Related Bond is entitled to take and may otherwise deal with Members of the Combined Group with like effect as if the Master Trustee were not the Master Trustee; provided, however, that if the Master Trustee has or shall acquire any conflicting interest, it shall, within ninety (90) days after ascertaining that it has such conflicting interest, either eliminate such conflicting interest or resign as Master Trustee.

Section 5.04. Removal and Resignation of the Master Trustee. The Master Trustee may resign on its motion or may be removed at any time by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by the Holders of not less than a majority of the principal amount of Obligations then Outstanding or, if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, by an instrument in writing signed by the Obligated Group Representative. No such resignation or removal shall become effective unless and until a successor Master Trustee (or temporary successor trustee as provided below) has been appointed and has assumed the trusts created hereby. Written notice of such resignation or removal shall be given to the Members of the Obligated Group and to each Holder by first class mail at the address then reflected on the books of the Master Trustee and such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the appointment and qualification of a successor Master Trustee. A successor Master Trustee may be appointed by the Obligated Group Representative or, if no such appointment is made by the Obligated Group Representative within thirty (30) days of the date notice of resignation or removal is given, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of Obligations Outstanding. In the event a successor Master Trustee has not been appointed and qualified within sixty (60) days of the date notice of resignation is given, the Master Trustee, any Member of the Obligated Group or any Holder may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a temporary successor Master Trustee to act until such time as a successor is appointed as above provided.

Every successor Master Trustee howsoever appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor and also to each Member of the Obligated Group an instrument in writing, accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Master Trustee, without further action, shall become fully vested with all the rights, immunities, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its predecessor, and such predecessor shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Master Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of such predecessor. The predecessor Master Trustee shall execute any and all documents necessary or appropriate to convey all interest it may have to the successor Master Trustee. The predecessor Master Trustee shall promptly deliver all material records relating to the trust or copies thereof and, on request, communicate all material information it may have obtained concerning the trust to the successor Master Trustee.

Each successor Master Trustee, not later than ten (10) days after its assumption of the duties hereunder, shall mail a notice of such assumption to each registered Holder.

Section 5.05. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Members of the Obligated Group agree:

30

(a) To pay the Master Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall be agreed to in writing between the Obligated Group Representative and the Master Trustee, but shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust).

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Master Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Master Trustee, including fees on collection and enforcement, in accordance with any provision of this Master Trust Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and its agents), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) To indemnify the Master Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust or its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

As security for the performance of the Members of the Obligated Group under this Section, the Master Trustee shall have a lien prior to any Obligations upon all property and funds held or collected by the Master Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of or interest or premiums on Obligations.

Section 5.06. Recitals and Representations. The recitals, statements and representations contained herein, or in any Obligation (excluding the Master Trustee’s authentication on the Obligations) shall be taken and construed as made by and on the part of the Members of the Obligated Group, respectively, and not by the Master Trustee, and the Master Trustee neither assumes nor shall be under any responsibility for the correctness of the same.

The Master Trustee makes no representation as to, and is not responsible for, the validity or sufficiency hereof, of the Obligations, or the validity or sufficiency of insurance to be provided. The Master Trustee shall be deemed not to have made representations as to the security afforded hereby or hereunder or as to the validity or sufficiency of such document. The Master Trustee shall not be concerned with or accountable to anyone for the use or application of any moneys which shall be released or withdrawn in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Master Trustee shall have no duty of inquiry with respect to any default or Events of Default described herein without actual knowledge of or receipt by the Master Trustee of written notice of a default or an Event of Default from a Member of the Obligated Group or any Holder.

Section 5.07. Separate or Co-Master Trustee. At any time or times, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction, the Master Trustee shall have power to appoint, and, upon the request of the Holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of Obligations Outstanding, shall appoint, one or more Persons approved by the Master Trustee either to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Master Trustee, or to act as separate trustee or separate trustees, and to vest in such person or persons, in such capacity, such rights, powers, duties, trusts or obligations as the Master Trustee may consider necessary or desirable, subject to the remaining provisions of this Section.

Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms, namely:

(a) The Obligations shall be authenticated and delivered solely by the Master Trustee.

(b) All rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the trustees shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Master Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or co-trustees or separate trustee or separate trustees, except to the extent that, under the law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Master Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such act or acts shall be performed by such co-trustee or co-trustees or separate trustee or separate trustees. 31

(c) Any request in writing by the Master Trustee to any co- trustee or separate trustee to take or to refrain from taking any action hereunder shall be sufficient warrant for the taking, or the refraining from taking, of such action by such co-trustee or separate trustee.

(d) Any co-trustee or separate trustee may, to the extent permitted by law, delegate to the Master Trustee the exercise of any right, power, trust, duty or obligation, discretionary or otherwise.

(e) The Master Trustee at any time, by any instrument in writing, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section. Upon the request of the Master Trustee, the Members of the Obligated Group shall join with the Master Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal.

(f) No trustee or any paying agent hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee or paying agent hereunder, nor will the act or omission of any trustee or paying agent hereunder be imputed to any other trustee or paying agent.

(g) Any demand, request, direction, appointment, removal, notice, consent, waiver or other action in writing delivered to the Master Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee or separate trustee.

(h) Any moneys, papers, securities or other items of personal property received by any such co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall forthwith, so far as may be permitted by law, be turned over to the Master Trustee.

Upon the acceptance in writing of such appointment by any such co-trustee or separate trustee, it or he shall be vested with such rights, powers, duties or obligations, as shall be specified in the instrument of appointment jointly with the Master Trustee (except insofar as local law makes it necessary for any such co-trustee or separate trustee to act alone) subject to all the terms hereof. Every such acceptance shall be filed with the Master Trustee. To the extent permitted by law, any co-trustee or separate trustee may, at any time by an instrument in writing, constitute the Master Trustee its or his attorney-in-fact and agent, with full power and authority to perform all acts and things and to exercise all discretion on its or his behalf and in its or his name.

In case any co-trustee or separate trustee shall become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of said co-trustee or separate trustee shall, so far as permitted by law, vest in and be exercised by the Master Trustee unless and until a successor co-trustee or separate trustee shall be appointed in the manner herein provided.

Section 5.08. Disclosure. The Master Trustee is authorized to disclose to a central repository of information and data regarding municipal bond issues such material as shall be required to be disclosed in accordance with applicable regulations and guidelines regarding such disclosure, including without limitation the American Bankers Association Corporate Trust Disclosure Guidelines for Master Trustees, and the Members of the Obligated Group shall in connection with any such disclosure pay the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Master Trustee, including the fees and expense of its counsel, incurred in connection with such disclosure and shall provide the Master Trustee with such indemnification as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Master Trustee.

If the issuer of any series of Obligations then Outstanding or the Master Trustee shall so determine, new Obligations so modified as to conform in the opinion of the Master Trustee and the Governing Body of such issuer to any such Supplement may be prepared and executed by the issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Master Trustee in exchange for and upon surrender of Obligations then Outstanding.

(b) An original executed counterpart or certified copy of the Replacement Master Indenture pursuant to which each party purported to be bound thereby has agreed (1) to become subject to compliance with all provisions of the Replacement Master Indenture and (2) unconditionally and irrevocably (subject to the right of such party to cease its status as a New Obligor pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Replacement Master Indenture) to jointly and severally make payments upon each note and obligation, including the Substitute Obligation, issued under the Replacement Master Indenture at the times and in the amounts provided in each such note or obligation;

(c) An Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Holder and the Obligated Group Members to the effect that: (1) the Replacement Master Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered or has been duly adopted by each party (other than the Master Trustee) purported to be bound thereby, the Substitute Obligation has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the New Obligor, and the Replacement Master Indenture and the Substitute Obligation are each a legal, valid and binding obligation of the New Obligor, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject in each case to customary exceptions for bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance and other laws affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and application of general principles of equity; (2) 35

all requirements and conditions to the issuance of the Substitute Obligation set forth in the Replacement Master Indenture have been complied with and satisfied; and (3) neither registration of the Substitute Obligation under the Securities Act nor qualification of the Replacement Master Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act is required, or, in either case, if such registration or qualification is required, all applicable registration and qualification provisions of said Acts have been complied with;

(e) Evidence (1) that written notice of such substitution, together with a copy of the Replacement Master Indenture, has been given by the New Obligor to each Rating Service then rating the Obligations, if any, or Related Bonds, (2) that the then current rating on such Obligations or Related Bonds will not be withdrawn or reduced below the then current rating category (without regard to any gradations by numerical qualifier or otherwise within such rating category) by any such Rating Service solely as a result of such substitution and (3) that the then current rating on such Obligation or Related Bonds is at least, and upon such substitution will not be reduced below, Investment Grade.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 6.04, no Substitute Obligation may effect any change with respect to any Obligation surrendered to the Master Trustee that would require the consent of the Holder of such Obligation if such change were to be made pursuant to Section 6.02 (a)(i) through (iii) hereof, without the consent of such Holder.

Nevertheless, any moneys held by the Master Trustee or any paying agent for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Obligation remaining unclaimed for five (5) years after the principal of all Obligations has become due and payable, whether at maturity or upon proceedings for redemption or by declaration as provided herein, shall then be paid to the Members of the Obligated Group, as their interests may appear, and the Holders of any Obligations not theretofore presented for payment shall thereafter be entitled to look 36

only to the Members of the Obligated Group for payment thereof as unsecured creditors and all liability of the Master Trustee with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease.

ARTICLE VIII

CONCERNING THE HOLDERS

Section 8.01. Evidence of Acts of Holders. (a) Except as otherwise provided in a Related Bond Indenture, in the event that any request, direction or consent is requested or permitted hereunder of the Holders of any Obligation securing an issue of Related Bonds, (i) each Related Bond Issuer shall be deemed to be such Holder for the purpose of any such request, direction or consent, or (ii) in the event such series of Related Bonds or Obligation is secured by a Credit Facility, so long as the issuer of such Credit Facility is not then in default on its obligations under such Credit Facility, the Credit Facility Issuer shall be deemed to be the Holder of such Obligation or Obligations pledged as security for such Related Bonds.

(b) As to any request, direction, consent or other instrument provided hereby to be signed and executed by the Holders, such action may be in any number of concurrent writings, shall be of similar tenor, and may be signed or executed by such Holders in person or by agent appointed in writing.

(c) Proof of the execution of any such request, direction, consent or other instrument or of the writing appointing any such agent and of the ownership of Obligations, if made in the following manner, shall be sufficient for any of the purposes hereof and shall be conclusive in favor of the Master Trustee and the Members of the Obligated Group, with regard to any action taken by them, or either of them, under such request, direction or consent or other instrument, namely:

(i) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such writing may be proved by the certificate of any officer in any jurisdiction who by law has power to take acknowledgments in such jurisdiction, that the person signing such writing acknowledged before him the execution thereof, or by the affidavit of a witness of such execution; and

(ii) The ownership of Related Bonds may be proved by the registration books for such Related Bonds maintained pursuant to the Related Bond Indenture.

(d) Nothing in this Section shall be construed as limiting the Master Trustee to the proof herein specified, it being intended that the Master Trustee may accept any other evidence of the matters herein stated which it may deem sufficient.

(e) Any action taken or suffered by the Master Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof upon the request or with the assent of any person who at the time is the Holder of any Obligation, shall be conclusive and binding upon all future Holders of the same Obligation.

Section 8.02. Obligations or Related Bonds Owned by Members of Obligated Group. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Obligations have concurred in any demand direction, request, notice, consent, waiver or other action under this Master Trust Indenture, Obligations or Related Bonds that are owned by any Member of the Obligated Group or by any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such Member shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding or outstanding under the Related Bond Indenture, as the case may be, for the purpose of any such determination, provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Master Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only such Obligations or Related Bonds which the Master Trustee has actual notice or knowledge are so owned shall be so disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding. Obligations or Related Bonds so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding or outstanding 37

under the Related Bond Indenture, as the case may be, for purposes of this Section, if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Master Trustee the pledgee’s right to vote such Obligations or Related Bonds and that the pledgee is not a person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with any Member of the Obligated Group. In case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Master Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Master Trustee.

Section 8.03. Instruments Executed by Holders Bind Future Holders. At any time prior to (but not after) the Master Trustee takes action in reliance upon evidence, as provided in Section 8.01 hereof, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of Obligations specified herein in connection with such action, any Holder of such an Obligation or Related Bond that is shown by such evidence to be included in Obligations the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Master Trustee and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.01, revoke such action so far as concerns such Obligation or Related Bond. Except upon such revocation any such action taken by the Holder of an Obligation or Related Bond in any direction, demand, request, waiver, consent, vote or other action of the Holder of such Obligation or Related Bond which by any provision hereof is required or permitted to be given shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Obligation or Related Bond, and of any Obligation or Related Bond issued in lieu thereof, whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Obligation or Related Bond. Any action taken by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of Obligations specified herein in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon each Member of the Obligated Group, the Master Trustee and the Holders of all of such Obligations or Related Bonds.

Notwithstanding any such prepayment or surrender of Series 2016 Bonds, as long as any Series

3

2016 Bonds remain Outstanding or any additional payments required to be made hereunder remain unpaid, the Members shall not be relieved of their obligations hereunder. Section 5. Registration. Numbers. Negotiability and Transfer of Obligation No. 2. (a) Obligation No. 2 shall be registered on the register to be maintained by the Master Trustee for that purpose at the Corporate Trust Office of the Master Trustee. Except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section, so long as any Series 2016 Bond remains Outstanding (within the meaning of that term as used in the Bond Indenture), Obligation No. 2 shall consist of a single Obligation registered in the name of the Bondholder of Obligation No. 2 and no transfer of Obligation No. 2 shall be registered under this Supplemental Indenture except for transfers to successors designated in writing to the Master Trustee.

(c) Obligation No. 2 shall be transferable only upon presentation of the respective Obligation at the Corporate Trust Office of the Master Trustee by the registered owner or by its duly authorized attorney. Such transfer shall be without charge to the owner thereof, but any taxes or other governmental charges required to be paid with respect to the same shall be paid by the owner requesting such transfer as a condition precedent to the exercise of such privilege. Upon any such transfer, the Obligated Group Representative shall execute and the Master Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such transferred Obligation a new Obligation registered in the name of the transferee. (d) Prior to due presentment by the owner for registration of transfer, the Members and the Master Trustee may deem and treat the persons in whose name Obligation No. 2 is registered as the absolute owner for all purposes; and neither the Members nor the Master Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All payments made to the registered owner shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable on Obligation No. 2. Section 6. Mutilation. Destruction and Loss of Obligation No. 2. If (i) Obligation No. 2 is surrendered to the Master Trustee in a mutilated condition, or the Obligated Group Representative and the Master Trustee receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction or loss of Obligation No. 2, and (ii) there is delivered to the Obligated Group Representative and the Master Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold them and the Members harmless, then, in the absence of proof satisfactory to the Obligated Group Representative and the Master Trustee that Obligation No. 2 has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser and upon the Holder paying the reasonable expenses of the Members, the Obligated Group Representative and the Master Trustee, the Obligated Group Representative shall execute and the Master Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for such mutilated, lost or destroyed Obligation No. 2, a new Obligation No. 2 of like principal amount, date and tenor. Every mutilated Obligation No. 2 so surrendered to the Master Trustee shall be cancelled by it and delivered to, or upon the order of, the Members. If any such mutilated, destroyed or lost Obligation No. 2 has become or is about to become due and payable. Obligation No. 2 may be paid when due instead of delivering a new Obligation No. 2.

Section 7. Execution and Authentication of Obligation No. 2. Obligation No. 2 shall be manually executed for and on behalf of the Members by their respective Authorized Representatives or the Obligated Group Representative. If any such signatory whose signature appears on Obligation No. 2 ceases to be such Authorized Representative of the Obligated Group Representative before delivery thereof, such signature shall remain valid and sufficient for all purposes as if such signatory had remained in such capacity until such delivery. Obligation No. 2 shall be manually authenticated by an authorized officer of the Master Trustee, without which authentication Obligation No. 2 shall not be entitled to the benefits hereof. Section 8. Right to Redeem. Obligation No. 2 shall be subject to redemption, in whole or in part, prior to the maturity, in an amount equal to the principal amount of any Series 2016 Bond called for redemption pursuant to the Bond Indenture. Obligation No. 2 shall be subject to redemption on the date any Series 2016 Bond shall be so redeemed or purchased, and in the manner provided in the Bond Indenture. Section 9. Partial Redemption of Obligation No. 2. Upon the call for redemption and the surrender of Obligation No. 2 for redemption in part only, the Members shall cause to be executed and the Master Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder thereof, at the expense of the Members, a new Obligation No. 2 in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of Obligation No. 2, which old Obligation No. 2 so surrendered to the Master Trustee pursuant to this Section 10 shall be cancelled by it and delivered to, or upon the order of, the Members. The Obligated Group Representative may agree with the Holder of Obligation No. 2 that such Holder may, in lieu of surrendering Obligation No. 2 for a new fully registered Obligation No. 2, endorse on Obligation No. 2 a notice of such partial redemption, which notice shall set forth, over the signature of such Holder, the payment date, the principal amount redeemed and the principal amount remaining unpaid. Such partial redemption shall be valid upon payment of the amount thereof to the registered owner of Obligation No. 2 and the Obligated Group and the Master Trustee shall be fully released and discharged from all liability to the extent of such payment irrespective of whether such endorsement shall or shall not have been made upon the reverse of Obligation No. 2 by the owner thereof and irrespective of any error or omission in such endorsement. Section 10. Effect of Call for Redemption. On the date designated for redemption of the Series 2016 Bonds, Obligation No. 2 shall become and be due and payable in an amount equal to the redemption or purchase price to be paid on the Series 2016 Bonds on such date. If, on the date fixed for redemption of Obligation No. 2, moneys for payment of the redemption or purchase price and accrued interest on the Series 2016 Bonds are properly set aside in accordance with the Bond Indenture, interest on Obligation No. 2 shall cease to accrue and said Obligation No. 2 shall cease to be entitled to any benefit or security under the Master Indenture to the extent of said redemption and the amount of Obligation No. 2 so called for redemption shall be deemed paid and no longer Outstanding in accordance with the Bond Indenture. Section 11. Discharge of Supplement. (a) Upon payment by the Obligated Group of a sum, in cash or Defeasance Obligations (as defined in the Bond Indenture), or both, sufficient, together with any other cash and Defeasance Obligations properly set aside in the Bond Indenture and available for such purpose, to cause all Outstanding Series 2016 Bonds to be deemed to have been paid within the meaning of the Bond Indenture and to pay all other amounts referred to in the Bond Indenture

5

accrued and to be accrued to the date of discharge of the Bond Indenture, Obligation No. 2 shall be deemed to have been paid and to be no longer Outstanding under the Master Indenture. (b) When Obligation No. 2 is no longer Outstanding, as provided in this Section 14, this Supplemental Indenture shall be discharged. Section 12. Ratification of Master Indenture. As supplemented hereby, the Master Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and the Master Indenture as so supplemented hereby shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument. Section 13. Additional Covenants. So long as Obligation No. 2 remains Outstanding, the Hospital agrees that (i) it shall not exercise its right to withdraw from the Obligated Group pursuant to Section 3.10 of the Master Indenture, and (ii) it will not incur any additional indebtedness under an FHA-Insured Loan other than for purposes of refinancing an existing FHA-Insured Loan. Section 14. Severability. If any provision of this Supplemental Indenture shall be held or deemed to be or shall, in fact, be inoperative or unenforceable as applied in any particular case and any jurisdiction or jurisdictions or in all jurisdictions, or in all cases, because it conflicts with any other provision or provisions hereof or any constitution, statute, rule or public policy, or for any other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering the provision in question inoperative or unenforceable in any other case or circumstance, or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to any extent whatever. The invalidity of any one or more phrases, sentences, clauses, sections or subsections contained in this Supplemental Indenture shall not affect the remaining portions of this Supplemental Indenture or any part thereto. Section 15. Counterparts. This Supplemental Indenture may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute one instrument. Section 16. Governing Law. This Supplemental Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. Section 16. Intercreditor Agreement. The Hospital hereby authorizes and directs the Master Trustee to enter into the Amendment to Intercreditor Agreement, and agrees that the provisions of Article V of the Master Trust Indenture shall apply to the execution, delivery and performance of the Amendment to Intercreditor Agreement by the Master Trustee.
