NC Attorney General Josh Stein has negotiated new settlements with CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Allergan and Teva ("Wave Two Settlements").

The state will receive its full share of the payments from Wave Two Settlements only if all eligible governments, including New Hanover County, finalize the Wave Two Settlements, and only if the vast majority of local governments across the nation sign onto them as well. New Hanover County stands to receive between $14 and $18 million dollars with this settlement agreement. The first settlement is approximately $18 million.

WHEREAS, the County has the power, pursuant to the General Statutes of North Carolina to (1) enter into installment contracts in order to purchase, or finance or refinance the purchase of, real or personal property and to finance or refinance the construction or repair of fixtures or improvements on real property and (2) create a security interest in some or all of the property financed or refinanced to secure repayment of the purchase price; WHEREAS, the County has previously executed and delivered (1) an Installment Financing Contract dated as of June 1, 2010 (the "2010 Contract") with the New Hanover Financing Corporation (the "Corporation"), the proceeds of which were used to finance the Projects (as defined in the 2010 Contract), including, among other things, the acquisition and renovation of a portion of the County's government center complex (the "Government Center") in 2005 and 2007 and acquisition of the County's judicial building in 2000 and a 5-story expansion of the judicial building in 2002 (the `Judicial Building"); (2) a Deed of Trust, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated as of June 1, 2010 granting a lien on the sites of the Government Center and the Judicial Building, as modified by (a) a Notice of Extension of Deed of Trust to Additional Property dated as of February 1, 2020 extending the lien of the Deed of Trust to the site of the Juvenile Justice Facility (as defined in the Second Contract Amendment), (b) a Deed of Partial Release dated as of February 1, 2020 releasing the lien on the Government Center from the Deed of Trust, and (c) a Notice of Extension of Deed of Trust to Additional Property dated as of March 1, 2021 extending the lien of the Deed of Trust to the site of the New Government Center (as defined in the Third Contract Amendment) (collectively, the "Deed of Trust"); (3) Amendment Number One to the Contract dated as of September 1, 2012 (the "First Contract Amendment") with the Corporation, the proceeds of which were used to refinance the 2003 Projects (as defined in the First Contract Amendment); (4) Amendment Number Two to the 2010 Contract dated as of February 1, 2020 (the "Second Contract Amendment") with the Corporation, the proceeds of which were used to finance the 2020A Projects (as defined in the Second Contract Amendment); (5) Amendment Number Three to the 2010 Contract dated as of March 1, 2021 (the "Third Contract Amendment") with the Corporation, the proceeds of which were used to finance the 2021 Projects and refinance the Refunded 2018 Contract (each as defined in the Third Contract Amendment);

WHEREAS, the Board hereby determines that it is in the best interest of the County to enter into Amendment Number Five to the 2010 Contract (the "Fifth Contract Amendment" and collectively with the 2010 Contract, the First Contract Amendment, the Second Contract Amendment, the Third Contract Amendment, and the Fourth Contract Amendment, the "Contract") with the Corporation to pay the capital costs of (a) acquisition of vehicles and equipment for use by various County departments, (b) construction and development of Hanover Pines Nature Park, (c) improvements to various County buildings, (d) expansion of the County's maintenance facility, (e) facility replacement for the detective and vice units of the Sheriff's department, and (f) purchase of real property for use by Cape Fear Community College to expand its nursing and allied health programs (collectively, the "2023 Projects"); WHEREAS, the County hereby determines that acquiring the Projects was and is essential to the County's proper, efficient and economic operation and to the general health and welfare of its inhabitants; that acquiring the Projects has and will provide an essential use and has and will permit the County to carry out public functions that it is authorized by law to perform; and that entering into the Fifth Contract Amendment is necessary and expedient for the County by virtue of the findings presented herein; Board of Commissioners - March 20, 2023 ITEM: 8 - 1 - 1 WHEREAS, the County hereby determines that the Fifth Contract Amendment would allow the County to purchase the 2023 Projects and take title thereto at a favorable interest rate currently available in the financial marketplace and on terms advantageous to the County; WHEREAS, the County hereby determines that the estimated cost of acquiring the 2023 Projects, including payment of the costs of execution and delivery, is an amount not to exceed $25,000,000 and that such cost exceeds the amount that can be prudently raised from currently available appropriations, unappropriated fund balances and non -voted bonds that could be issued by the County in the current fiscal year pursuant to Article V, Section 4 of the Constitution of the State; WHEREAS, although the cost of acquiring the 2023 Projects to the Fifth Contract Amendment is expected to exceed the cost of acquiring the 2023 Projects pursuant to a bond financing for the same undertaking, the County hereby determines that the cost of acquiring the 2023 Projects pursuant to the Fifth Contract Amendment and the obligations of the County thereunder are preferable to a general obligation bond financing or revenue bond financing for several reasons, including but not limited to the following: (1) the cost of a special election necessary to approve a general obligation bond financing, as required by the laws of the State, would result in the expenditure of significant funds; (2) the time required for a general obligation bond election would cause an unnecessary delay which would thereby decrease the financial benefits of acquiring, constructing, improving and equipping the 2023 Projects; and (3) insufficient revenues are produced by the Projects so as to permit a revenue bond financing; WHEREAS, the County has determined and hereby determines that the estimated cost acquiring the 2023 Projects pursuant to the Fifth Contract Amendment reasonably compares with an estimate of similar costs under a bond financing for the same undertaking as a result of the findings delineated in the above preambles; WHEREAS, the County does not anticipate a future property tax increase to pay installment payments falling due under the Fifth Contract Amendment; WHEREAS, the sums to fall due under the Fifth Contract Amendment will be adequate but not excessive for its proposed purpose; WHEREAS, Parker Poe Adams & Bernstein LLP, as bond counsel ("Bond Counsel"), will render an opinion to the effect that entering into the Fifth Contract Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby are authorized by law;
