By Sheri Kasprzak

New York, Oct. 8 – The State of Ohio priced $81.43 million of series 2014 hospital revenue bonds for University Hospitals Health System, according to a pricing sheet.

The deal included $56.43 million of series 2014A bonds and $25 million of series 2014B variable-rate remarketed demand bonds.

The 2014A bonds are due in 2044 and have a 2.25% coupon priced at par and a 4% coupon priced at 98.302.

The 2014B bonds are due Jan. 15, 2045 and initially bear interest at the VRO rate.

The bonds (A2/A/) were sold on a negotiated basis. Barclays was the lead manager for the 2014A bonds and sole underwriter for the 2014B bonds. BofA Merrill Lynch was also a lead manager for the 2014A bonds.
