For purposes of complying with the Rate Covenant, the Authority will: (a) include within Net Revenues amounts transferred or credited from the Prepaid Airline Fund; (b) exclude from interest due on Authority Revenue Bonds any interest paid from moneys in the Capitalized Interest Account; (c) include in such calculation moneys in the Coverage Fund; (d) exclude from the calculation, debt service excluded from the Debt Service Requirement by reason of the dedication of Dedicated Revenues for payment of such debt service; and (e) exclude any amounts deposited into the FF&E Reserve Fund from Net Revenues.
Flow of Funds
From Revenue Fund (Airport System Fund where all Gross Revenues are deposited), application priority: (1) Operating Expenses — Pay first; (2) Debt Service — Principal and interest (Revenue Bond Interest and Principal Fund); (3) Debt Service Reserve — Maintain required level (Revenue Bond Reserve Fund); (4) General Obligation Bonds (if any); (5) Subordinate Securities (if any); (6) FF&E Reserve Fund (for Hotel periodic renovations); (7) Operation and Maintenance Reserve Fund; (8) Renewal & Replacement Fund; (9) Coverage Fund — Build rolling coverage; (10) Capital Improvement Fund; (11) Discretionary/Prepaid Airline Fund — Airport's use per grant assurances. Monies held in the Airport System Fund are applied first to the payment of all current Operation and Maintenance Expenses and then to the Revenue Bond Interest and Principal Fund and Revenue Bond Reserve Fund in the amounts required.

The Authority may agree to hold such PFCs and other monies exclusively to pay a portion of the debt service on Authority Revenue Bonds and related Qualified Derivative Agreement payments, to the extent allowed by law. Revenues remaining after the payment of Operation and Maintenance Expenses, debt service on all Outstanding Authority Bonds, General Obligation Bonds (if any) and Subordinate Securities (if any) and other fund deposit requirements (including the Capital Improvement Fund, FF&E Reserve Fund, and Coverage Fund) are transferred to the Prepaid Airline Fund.
