Sec. 15.5. Loans to Participating Hospitals. Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter to the contrary, the authority may finance the cost of a project or refund outstanding indebtedness of a participating hospital as authorized by section 10(m) of this chapter by issuing its bonds for the purpose of purchasing the securities of a participating hospital. Any such securities shall have the same principal amounts, maturities and interest rates as the bonds so being issued, may be secured by a first mortgage lien, subject to such exceptions as the authority may approve and created by a mortgage instrument satisfactory to the authority, and may be insured or guaranteed by others. Any such bonds shall be secured by a pledge of such securities under the trust agreement or indenture creating such bonds, shall be payable solely out of the payments to be made on such securities and shall not exceed in principal amount the cost of such project or the refunding of such indebtedness as determined by the participating hospital and approved by the authority. In other respects any such bonds shall be subject to the provisions of this chapter including sections 13 and 14 and the trust agreement or indenture creating such bonds may contain such of the provisions set forth in section 15 hereof as the authority may consider appropriate.

     In the event that a project is financed pursuant to this section, the title to such project shall remain in the participating hospital owning the same, subject to the lien of the mortgage securing the securities then being purchased, and there shall be no lease of such facility between the authority and such participating hospital.
