AS 44.88.159. Interest Rates.

(a) The interest rate on a loan participation purchased from the proceeds of tax-exempt bonds or expected by the authority to be purchased from the proceeds of tax-exempt bonds shall be determined under the regulations adopted by the authority under AS 44.88.085(g)(2)(C) and shall be not less than the cost of funds to the authority. In this subsection, "cost of funds" means the true interest cost expressed as a rate on tax-exempt bonds of the authority plus an additional percentage as determined by the authority to represent the allocable expenses of operation, costs of issuance, and loan servicing costs.

(b) The interest rate on a loan participation purchased from the proceeds of taxable bonds or expected by the authority to be purchased from the proceeds of taxable bonds shall be determined under the regulations adopted by the authority under AS 44.88.085 (g)(2)(C) and shall be not less than the cost of funds to the authority. In this subsection, "cost of funds" means the true interest cost expressed as a rate on taxable bonds, plus an additional percentage as determined by the authority to represent the allocable expenses of operation, costs of issuance, and loan servicing costs.

(c) [Repealed, Sec. 23 ch 123 SLA 1990].

(d) The provisions of this section apply only to a loan participation purchased under AS 44.88.155 - 44.88.159.

(e) The interest rate on a loan participation purchased directly from the assets of the authority shall be determined under the regulations adopted by the authority under AS 44.88.085 (g)(2)(C). However, the minimum interest rate on a loan participation purchased from assets of the authority may not be less than the minimum interest rate determined

(1) under (a) of this section if the project is of a type that could be funded with tax-exempt bonds; or

(2) under (b) of this section if the project is of a type that could not be funded with tax-exempt bonds.

(f) In determining an interest rate under the regulations adopted by the authority under AS 44.88.085 (g)(2)(C), the authority may determine to disregard the minimum interest rate required under (a), (b), or (e) of this section for a loan participation purchased by the authority to resolve lending limits or reserve restrictions imposed on the financial institution and may instead determine to retain the interest rate existing at the time the authority purchases a portion of the loan.
