Sec. 19. (a) A lease from the authority to the county may provide for the payment of the lease rental from the levy of taxes reduced by net revenues of the hospital and other funds available as provided in section 37 of this chapter.

     (b) A lease from the authority to the city may provide for the payment of lease rental from the net revenues of the hospital of which the buildings are a part.

     (c) A lease from the authority to the city providing for the payment of a lease rental from net revenues of the hospital may provide that the board of trustees or board of directors of the hospital establish a reserve for net revenues in excess of the amount required to pay the lease rental payable from net revenues. The reserve fund may not exceed an amount equal to the amount of lease rental payable from net revenues for two (2) years. The reserve fund shall be held and used only for the purpose of paying lease rental payable from net revenues if the net revenues are insufficient for that purpose. The amount in the reserve fund may be invested as provided in the lease and all interest or other income from the investment becomes part of the reserve fund. If the fund contains the maximum amount the interest or income shall be transferred to the city hospital and be a part of the general revenues of that hospital.
