SECTION I - INTRODUCTION PURPOSE AND INTENT This Request for Qualifications ( RFQ ) is being issued by the Delaware River Port Authority ( Authority ) for firms to submit qualifications to serve as underwriter (an Underwriter ) in connection with the Authority s (i) proposed issuance and sale of approximately $400 million in Revenue Bonds ( Revenue Bonds ) to fund a portion of its $0.9 billion 2012 five-year capital program, and (ii) for any proposed refundings of existing revenue bonds and/or Port District Project bonds. The 2012 Revenue Bonds may be issued as fixed or variable rate bonds in one (1) or more series from time-to-time (or a combination thereof) and are expected to be issued under the Authority s governing 1998 Revenue Bond Indenture. The Authority desires to establish a pool of Underwriters (the Underwriter s Pool ), to be available to render underwriting services (specifically as Senior, Co-Senior or Co-Managers) as set forth in this RFQ when and as needed, including with respect to the issuance of the 2012 Revenue Bonds and any potential refundings of existing debt (revenue bonds and Port District Project Bonds). The Underwriter s Pool will be effective for a three-year period from the date of appointment. When the Authority determines to issue the 2012 Revenue Bonds or refunding bonds, firms or entities qualified under this RFQ (each a Respondent) for the Underwriter s Pool, will be selected as a Senior, Co-Senior and/or Co-Manager. Any firm which is not selected as a Senior Managing Underwriter or Co-Senior Managing Underwriter for any series of bonds may be selected for the role of Co-Managing Underwriter. Respondents may request inclusion in the Underwriter s Pool only for the role of Co-Managing Underwriter, if they do not wish to serve as a Senior or Co-Senior Managing Underwriter. The Authority also desires to appoint a pool of remarketing agents (the Remarketing Agent s Pool ) to provide services related to the remarketing of variable rate bonds. This pool will also be effective for a three-year period. (Note: Selection to any pool does not provide any assurance that a firm will receive an appointment for a specific transaction. The Authority reserves the right, following the creation of the Underwriter s Pool and Remarketing Agent s Pool, in its sole and absolute discretion, to add or delete firms from either respective pool at any time during the three-year period.) BACKGROUND The Authority expects to issue the Revenue Bonds, in the second half of 2012, dependent on its capital spending plans and market conditions. The Authority also is presently in the process of evaluating potential refunding opportunities. The Authority has several previously adopted Board Resolutions authorizing issuance of new revenue bonds and/or refundings of the Authority s outstanding Revenue Bonds and Port District Project Bonds (including the 1998B, 1999A, 1999B and 2001A Port District Project Bonds), each as listed below: 1. DRPA-09-064 authorized the Authority to issue new revenue bonds, up to a maximum of $510 million to fund a portion of the 2010 Capital Plan. (This resolution rescinded the earlier new money authorization passed in October 2008.) The new revenue bonds can be issued as fixed or variable rate bonds, along with any interest rate hedge 4

agreements, if necessary. The DRPA issued $308 million in fixed rate bonds in July 2010, pursuant to this resolution. 2. DRPA-09-065 - In September 2009, as a result of the exercise of an underlying swaption, the Authority s was authorized to refund the Authority s outstanding 1999 B Port District Project Bonds, associated with such swaption, cash settle (termination) the swap, or issue of any necessary interest rate agreements to manage the interest costs of the Authority. The related swap was terminated in January 2010, but no action with regards to refunding occurred. 3. DRPA-09-076 authorized either the: refunding of the Authority s outstanding 1998 B Port District Project Bonds, and issuance of any necessary interest rate agreements, related to such refunding bonds, to manage the interest costs of the Authority and termination of any existing swap associated with the 1999B Port District Project. The related swap was terminated in January 2010, but no actions with regards to issuance of refunding bonds have occurred. 4. DRPA 12-021 authorized the Authority to, among other actions, issue refunding bonds, related to the 1999 A and the 2001 Port District Project Bonds, either as variable or fixed rate bonds, in an aggregate principal amount not-to-exceed $165 million. (Note, pursuant to this authorizing resolution, the Authority used its General Fund to redeem $71.4 million of its 2001 PDP bonds on April 26, 2012. However, no actions with regards to issuance of refunding bonds have occurred.) Copies of each of the aforementioned resolutions are included in Appendix A. OVERVIEW OF THE AUTHORITY The Authority owns and operates four major bridge crossings over the Delaware River between Pennsylvania and New Jersey in the Philadelphia area, including: the Betsy Ross Bridge (between Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Pennsauken, New Jersey); the Benjamin Franklin Bridge (between Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Camden, New Jersey); the Walt Whitman Bridge (between Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Gloucester City, New Jersey); and the Commodore Barry Bridge (between Chester, Pennsylvania and Bridgeport, New Jersey). The Authority also owns and operates, through its operating subsidiary, Port Authority Transit Corporation (PATCO), the PATCO High Speed Line which runs from Lindenwold, New Jersey to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
