Commission Memorandum Financial Advisor Renewal April 17, 2013 Page 2 of 2 RBC Capital Markets acts as Financial Advisors for the City's ongoing capital program, including Water & Sewer Bonds, Stormwater Bonds, Parking Bonds, and with the Line of Credit financing program. They are currently assisting the City with the financing plan for the undergrounding of the utilities for Sunset Islands 3 & 4, and the Miami Beach Convention Center Expansion Project. Additionally, they serve as Financial Advisors for the Miami Beach Health Facilities Authority (HFA). Last year, Mt. Sinai had applied to the HFA for a substantial bond refunding series of approximately $160 million. RBC Capital Markets served as the Financial Advisors to the HFA, the issuer, in this case Mt. Sinai, and were compensated by them from the proceeds from the sale of the bonds or other fees charged for the project. RBC Capital Markets also provides the City with various other financial advisory services, some of which include the following: - Review existing debt structure and financial resources to determine available borrowing capacity. - Advise as to market conditions and recommend the timing of the sale of bonds. - Provide information concerning the structure of financing programs used by other issuers. - Advise on the most efficient structure for each issue. - Advise as to the advantages and disadvantages of municipal bond issuance or other credit enhancements. - Assist in negotiating the interest rates proposed by the underwriters. - Review the bond purchase agreement and advise as to its acceptance or rejection in light of market conditions. - Assist legal counsel in the preparation and distribution of the Official Statement. - Arrange for distribution of the Official Statement to bond underwriters and investors in accordance with the objectives communicated by the City. Included as Exhibit A is a more comprehensive list of the scope of services that RBC Capital Markets is required to perform and was part of their original contract with the City. In this Exhibit is also the fee structure that will continue to be in effect should this resolution be approved. Although the City uses RBC Capital Markets on a continuous basis, they are not compensated until the City issues bonds. Their fees are part of the cost of issuance that are paid from the bond proceeds.
