A. A special hospital district may enter into a lease, loan or other financing agreement, with a term not exceeding thirty years from the date of execution, with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council created under the Hospital Equipment Loan Act [N.M. Stat. Ann. Chapter 58, Article 23] to acquire funds for the construction, purchase, renovation, remodeling, equipping, reequipping or refinancing of hospital facilities under its control, for the purchase of the land necessary therefor and for refunding revenue bonds previously issued for any of the foregoing purposes or for any combination thereof.

B. The special hospital district entering into agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council may pledge irrevocably all or a portion of the revenues derived from the operation of a hospital facility and revenues derived from the leasing of or other contractual arrangement for the operation of a hospital facility for the payment of rentals, principal and interest and any other amount or obligation required under the lease, loan or other financing agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council.

C. At a regular or special meeting called for the purpose of approving the execution and delivery of a lease, loan or other financing agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council as authorized in this section, the board of trustees may adopt a resolution declaring the necessity for entering into the lease, loan or other financing agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council; authorizing the entering into of the lease, loan or other financing agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council; and designating the source of the pledged revenues for the payment or repayment of rentals, principal and interest and any other amounts and obligations required under the lease, loan or other financing agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council.

The amount and obligations under a lease, loan or other financing agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council entered into under the authority of the Special Hospital District Act shall never constitute an indebtedness of the special hospital district or the county or counties in which the special hospital district is located within the meaning of any state constitutional provision or statutory limitation and shall never constitute or give rise to a pecuniary liability of the special hospital district or the county or counties in which the special hospital district is located or charge against its general credit or taxing power.

E. The rentals, principal and interest and any other amounts and obligations owed under a lease, loan or other financing agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council shall be secured by the pledge of the revenues out of which such rentals, principal and interest and any other amounts and obligations shall be payable and may be secured by a mortgage covering all or any part of a hospital facility from which the revenues so pledged may be derived.

F. The resolution or proceedings under which the lease, loan or other financing agreement are authorized to be entered into or any mortgage relating thereto may contain any agreement and provisions customarily contained in instruments securing leases, loans or other financing arrangements including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, provisions respecting the designation and collection of the revenues from a hospital facility covered by such proceedings or mortgage, the maintenance and insurance of such hospital facility, the creation and maintenance of special funds derived from the revenues relating to such hospital facility and the rights and remedies available in event of default to the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council under a mortgage, all as the board of trustees shall deem advisable and as shall not conflict with the provisions of the Special Hospital District Act.

G. No notice, consent or approval by any governmental body, commission or public officer shall be required as a prerequisite to the entering into of a lease, loan or other financing agreement with the New Mexico hospital equipment loan council or the making of a mortgage under the authority of the Special Hospital District Act, except as provided in this section.
