The documents specify that the buyers will acknowledge when they purchase the bonds that they are not backed by Iredell County. The bonds are backed by the net revenues of the hospital. A definition of net revenues is "everything that is not necessary to operate the hospital." Pope explained the only reason Iredell County was involved in this transaction was because it owned the land where Iredell Memorial is located. Because of this, the County will be asked to enter into a new lease that will exist for the period of the bonds. The lease will not extend the original leasing time (99 years), but during the period of the bonds there will be a substitute lease. This is required so that in the event the bonds are not paid, the bond holders would be recognized as having a "right" to operate the hospital during the lease period. They would not acquire title to the land (Iredell County would maintain); however, there could be new tenants if the hospital officials could not make payment.
