RUMC builds relationships with employed and independent physicians through various means. RUMC employs approximately one-half of its medical staff, including those in its highly-ranked neurosurgery practice.

RUMC has also implemented various joint ventures with physicians to provide core services including the following:

Rush Surgicenter – Outpatient surgery operations at RUMC.

To date, the parties have implemented an affiliated outpatient cancer treatment program with infusion therapy at a newly-developed DMG building in Lisle, Illinois.

Recent Financial Performance – Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

Drivers of Performance – Operating Revenue – Operating revenue increased by 3.7% when comparing fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 to fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. The largest contributor to operating revenue is patient service revenue in the hospitals at 77.0% of operating revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.

Net patient service revenue for the hospitals and physician practice plans combined increased by $98.8 million or 5.4% from fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 to fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.

Reimbursement Environment and Payer Mix – Revenue for the hospitals includes payments from government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid, from managed care companies under negotiated contracts, from commercial insurance companies with no negotiated contract, and directly from patients. Governmental payers accounted for 58.0% of the Obligated Group’s gross patient service revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. There have been modest

increases in Medicare reimbursement in the last several years. Effective July 1, 2014, Medicaid reformed and updated its payment system. While the Obligated Group was among several Illinois facilities which would have seen reimbursement decreases due to this change, Medicaid committed to making transitional payments to hold hospitals harmless through June 2018.

The Obligated Group is currently seeing a shift in its traditional payer mix of patients. In an effort to reduce the number of uninsured patients, the ACA provided for the creation of Health Insurance Exchanges (“HIX”) and the expansion of Medicaid coverage for adults. This has resulted in increased hospital volume under new Blue Cross HIX plans as well as an increase in the overall Medicaid patient mix. Additionally, the number of self-pay patients has decreased slightly. The State of Illinois has moved a significant portion of its Medicaid population to Managed Care plans. Consequently, the Obligated Group has seen a marked increase in Medicaid Managed Care mix with a concurrent drop in traditional Medicaid.

The mix of patient service revenue, net of contractual allowances and discounts (but before the provision for uncollectible accounts), recognized during the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, by major payer source, was as follows:

Medicare 465,935$ 24 % 426,955$ 23 % Medicare Managed Care 63,818 3 62,840 3 Medicaid 124,508 6 196,994 11 Medicaid Managed Care 176,101 9 102,163 5 Blue Cross 569,021 29 546,321 29 Managed care 416,149 21 401,796 21 Commercial, self-pay, and other 164,836 8 142,834 8 Total patient service revenue, net of contractual

allowances and discounts (but before provision for

uncollectible accounts)

1,980,369$ 100 % 1,879,903$ 100 %

2016 2015

Changes in estimates relating to prior periods increased net patient service revenue by $7,324 and $19,346 in fiscal years 2016 and 2015, respectively. Laws and regulations governing government and other payment programs are complex and subject to interpretation. As a result, there is a reasonable possibility that recorded estimated third-party settlements could change by a material amount.

The combined Hospital Assessment Program’s impact on the Consolidated Statements of Operations during fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:

Physician Practice Plans – Total net patient service revenue from the physician practice plans increased $11.2 million or 4.7% for fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 versus fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 due mainly to increased volumes.

Other Operating Revenue – Other operating revenue represented 11.6% of total operating revenue and decreased $21.0 million or 7.8% from fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 to fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. Other operating revenue consists primarily of external funding for research and internal fund support to research (42%), tuition and educational grants (27%), and other non-patient care service activities (31%).

The decrease in other operating revenue is mainly the result of asset monetization revenue recognized during fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. In July 2014, Rush sold its royalties of Ampyra and recognized $34.7 million of revenue within other operating revenue.

Drivers of Performance – Operating Expense – Operating expenses increased by $79.3 million or 4.0% from fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 to fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. Operating costs as a percentage of operating revenue for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, were as follows:

Salaries, Wages and Employee Benefits – Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased by $79.9 million or 7.8% when comparing fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 to fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.

The table below shows the employed FTEs and employed physicians for the Obligated Group as of June 30, 2016 as compared to June 30, 2015:

Note: Of the 10,969 FTE’s, approximately 8.1% of non-clinical employees are represented by a union. On Tuesday, August 16, 2016, RUMC received the decision from the three member panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia unanimously affirming the order of the National Labor Relations Board that the Medical Center engage in collective bargaining with Local 743, Teamsters concerning its representation of Patient Care Technicians. In conjunction with our legal department and our outside labor relations law firm, we are considering whether RUMC would request further review. Depreciation and Amortization – Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $13.5 million or 11.1% for fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 versus fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. In December 2015 RUMC received a settlement of $9 million related to a breach of contract over the design of the Tower, as discussed on pages 27 and 29 of this report. In fiscal year 2013, RUMC recorded $10 million of additional depreciation expense to write-off the impaired asset.

Professional Liability and Other Insurance – Professional liability and other insurance cost the Obligated Group $52.1 million for fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, which is an increase of $12.7 million or 32.1% from fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. The increase is due to RUMC recording additional professional liability expense during fiscal year 2016 in accordance with internal reserving policies.

Interest Expense – Interest expense was $23.6 million for fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, which is a decrease of $14.0 million or 37.1% from fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. The significant decrease is the result of the debt refinancing completed in February 2015.

Significant Nonrecurring Items – During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 significant nonrecurring items impacted the Obligated Group’s reported operating income as follows:

Non-operating Income/Expense – Total non-operating income increased by $123.2 million from fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 to fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. Non-operating income consists of investment income, unrestricted contributions, loss on extinguishment of debt, and interest rate swaps. The significant increase is due to the $117.7 million loss on extinguishment of debt recognized in fiscal year 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources – The Obligated Group’s unrestricted cash and investments at market value increased by $15.1 million or 1.3% from June 30, 2015 to June 30, 2016, 216.7 days cash on hand at June 30, 2016. Included in unrestricted cash and investments was $81.9 million and $72.0 million of Specific Purpose Fund balances as of June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively, and $48.1 million and $51.2 million of appreciation on the unrestricted portion of RUMC’s endowment as of June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively.

Excluded from unrestricted cash and investments were the following temporarily restricted assets:

Appreciation on the restricted portion of RUMC’s endowment fund of $193.7 million and $208.3 million as of June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively. These temporarily restricted funds are used to support specific purposes such as research and education.

The Obligated Group as well as other Illinois hospitals have experienced significant delays in payments by the State of Illinois for amounts due under Medicaid and other state funded programs. Periodically the State catches up with the payments and the delays experienced by the Obligated Group improve, however these delays have increased through the fourth quarter of this fiscal year. Days in accounts receivable ended at 52.9 as of June 30, 2016. Collections of non-Medicaid receivables during the year have been strong to help offset any continuing payment delays on Medicaid receivables.

Capital Expenditures

Since completion of the Tower, spending has normalized to levels consistent with fiscal year 2006 and earlier. Total capital expenditures for the Obligated Group amounted to $124.0 million for fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, a $4.3 million decrease from fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. The Obligated Group’s construction commitments outstanding as of June 30, 2016 were $61.8 million.

MISCELLANEOUS

Community Benefits

Rush has an established charity care policy and maintains records to identify and monitor the level of charity care it provides. RUMC provides free care to all patients whose family income is 300% of the federal poverty level or less, and an additional discount is available to all patients with family income up to 400% of the federal poverty level. All uninsured patients receive a tiered discount regardless of their ability to pay. These discounts apply to patients with family income ranging from 301% to 1,000% of the federal poverty limit, with the discounts ranging from 33% to 68%. In addition, any uninsured patient with family income over 1,000% of the federal poverty limit would still receive a 33% discount.

RCMC provides free care to all patients whose family income is less than 300% of the federal poverty level and a 30% discount to all uninsured patients regardless of ability to pay, also providing discount balances to patients under 600% of the federal poverty level. Interest-free payment plans are also provided. Charity care includes the estimated cost of unreimbursed services provided and supplies furnished under its charity care policy and the excess of cost over reimbursement for Medicaid patients. The estimated cost of charity care provided is determined using a ratio of cost to gross charges and multiplying that ratio by the gross unreimbursed charges associated with providing care to charity patients.

The table below shows the total community benefit provided during fiscal years 2015 and 2014 by service type:

Pension Plans

RUMC actively manages its defined benefit retirement plans and has established a formal pension risk strategy plan. This plan is reviewed annually by the Asset-Liability Committee of the Board. The Asset-Liability Committee was established in 2010 and is comprised of members of the Investment and Finance Committees, respectively. Risk management planning is comprehensive and incorporates plan design, funding, investment policy and risk transfer assessments.

Funded Status – RUMC regularly measures its plans’ funded status on a PPA Funded Ratio, FAS Funded Ratio and Economic Funded Ratio. These measurements utilize different time periods and discount rates to measure the liability and different smoothing methods for the assets held in the Master Retirement Trust. The FAS Funded Ratio found in the footnotes to the financial statements as of June 30, 2016, reflects a funded ratio of 87%.

Funding – For the past seven consecutive calendar years, RUMC contributed more than the minimum required by Employee Retirement Income Security Act and the Code funding rules. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, RUMC contributed $66.0 million to the plan.

Investment Policy – The portfolio’s investment objective is to achieve a total return that meets or exceeds the plan’s obligations over a full market cycle. This cycle is generally defined as rolling five year periods.

Plan Design – During June 2015, Rush offered a voluntary lump sum cash out to certain eligible terminated vested participants, resulting in a total settlement amount of $46.0 million. In addition, the de-risking initiative triggered a one-time non-cash charge of $12.5 million as a result of the total payments exceeding the plan’s interest cost and service cost components in fiscal year 2015.

Effective January 1, 2015, a new defined benefit plan was established. This new plan (the “Pre-2015 Separations Plan” or the “Pre-2015 Plan”), is a spinoff of the current Retirement Plan. The Retirement Plan’s benefit obligation and assets attributable to participants who terminated employment prior to January 1, 2015 with a vested benefit were transferred to the Pre-2015 Plan as of the effective date. In addition to the pension programs, Rush also provides postretirement health care benefits for certain employees. Further benefits under the postretirement healthcare plans have been curtailed.

RUMC has settled its breach of contract claim against architect Perkins+Will, Inc. and its mechanical design subcontractor, Environmental Systems Design, Inc. (ESD), relating to alleged errors and omissions by the defendants in the design of the Tower. A $9 million settlement was recorded as an offset to depreciation expense in December 2015. RUMC also settled its case against ASI, Ohio Farmers’ Insurance, and Illinois National Insurance for construction and design defects in the Tower. Under the settlement agreement, RUMC will receive $8 million from the parties on August 25, 2016. In addition, in the ordinary course of business, Rush receives new lawsuits containing allegations of professional liability and/or general liability. Investment Policies

The Obligated Group’s investment program consists of unrestricted cash and investments, an endowment at RUMC and RCMC and investment trusts maintained for the specific purpose of funding RUMC’s self-insured general and professional liability claims, and RUMC’s defined benefit plan. The Investment Committee of the Board of Trustees at RUMC has the primary purpose of assisting the Board of Trustees in the oversight of RUMC’s asset pools, and specifically, assets in the self-insurance trust, endowment fund, and Master Retirement Trust and investment offerings in the defined contribution plans. The Finance Committee of the Board of Trustees at RUMC has similar responsibilities for unrestricted cash and investments. The Finance Committee of the Board of Directors at RCMC is responsible for determining and implementing all investment policies, selecting and terminating investment managers and reviewing investment performance.

The Obligated Group’s unrestricted cash and investments consisted of the following as of June 30, 2016 and 2015:

This document is dated as of October 21, 2016. 28

The objective of the RUMC self-insurance trust is to fund the self-insurance obligations of RUMC. As of June 30, 2016 the self-insurance trust assets had a market value of $130.3 million versus a market value of $138.0 million as of June 30, 2015. The decrease in the self-insurance trust assets related to the investment income of approximately $1.1 million and $54.6 million payout of claims and related fees during fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. The following table shows the current asset allocation targets and ranges as well as the asset allocation as of June 30, 2016, and for June 30, 2015 for the self-insurance trust:

RUMC uses the total return concept to record returns on investments in its self-insurance trust. RCMC does not maintain a self-insurance trust to fund its self-insurance obligations. As of June 30, 2016, approximately $18.8 million of RCMC’s unrestricted cash and investments is estimated to be required to fund self-insurance obligations.

Fair Value Measurements

As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, Rush held certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including marketable securities and short-term investments, certain restricted, trusteed and other investments, derivative instruments, and beneficial interests in trusts. Certain alternative investments measured using either the cost or equity method of accounting are excluded from the fair value disclosure provided herein.

Valuation Principles

Under FASB guidance on fair value measurements, fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques used to measure fair value are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs generally reflect market data from independent sources and are supported by market activity, while unobservable inputs are generally unsupported by market activity. The three-level valuation hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value of an asset or liability at the measurement date, includes:

Level 1 inputs — Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Securities typically priced using Level 1 inputs include listed equities and exchange-traded mutual funds.

Level 2 inputs — Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in nonactive markets, and model-driven valuations whose inputs are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Securities typically priced using Level 2 inputs include government bonds (including US treasuries and agencies), corporate and municipal bonds, collateralized obligations, interest rate swaps, commercial paper and currency options.

Level 3 inputs — Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data available and are based on the reporting entity’s own judgment or estimation of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values for securities typically priced using Level 3 inputs are determined using model-driven techniques, which include option-pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar methods. The level 3 classification includes beneficial interests in trusts.

In restating the long-term investments fair value hierarchy table as of June 30, 2015 to comport with the adoption of ASU 2015-07 as discussed in Note 2, $76.3 million in fund investments were reclassified from Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy to being reported under their NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient, $108.2 million in fund investments were reclassified from Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy to being reported under their NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient, and $130.2 million in fund investments and alternative investments were reclassified from Level 3 to being reported under their NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient. The reconciliation for financial instruments classified as Level 3 investments as of June 30, 2015 was restated to reflect the Level 3 reclassifications to NAV (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient.

Valuation Techniques and Inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 Instruments

The Level 2 and Level 3 instruments listed in the preceding fair value tables use the following valuation techniques and inputs as of the valuation date:

Marketable Securities and Short-term Investments – Marketable securities classified as Level 2 are invested in a short-term collective fund that serves as an investment vehicle for cash reserves. Fair value was determined using the calculated NAV as of the valuation date, based on a constant price. These funds are invested in high-grade and short-term money market instruments with daily liquidity.

Fixed Income Securities – Fixed income securities consists primarily of U.S. Government and agency securities, corporate bonds, and asset backed securities, all of which are classified as Level 2. The fair value of investments in U.S. government and agency securities and corporate bonds was primarily determined using techniques consistent with the market approach, including matrix pricing and significant observable inputs of institutional bids, trade data, broker and dealer quotes, discount rates, issues spreads, and benchmark yield curves. The asset backed securities encompasses collateralized bond obligations, collateralized loan and mortgage obligations any other asset backed securities. The fair value of these securities was determined using techniques consistent with the market and income approach, such as discounted cash flows and matrix pricing.

Fund Investments – Investments in this category classified as Level 2 are held in a commingled fund that invests primarily in global equity and bond mutual funds. The fair value of this commingled fund is based upon the calculated NAV at the valuation date under a market approach. Investments in this category classified as NAV, which are invested in a multistrategy hedge fund, are priced on the last business day of each calendar month. The values of the underlying investments are estimated based on many factors, including operating performance,

This document is dated as of October 21, 2016. 31

balance sheet indicators, growth, and other market and business fundamentals. The underlying investment strategies can include long-short, global macro, fixed-income and currency hedges, and other tactical opportunity-related strategies.

Beneficial Interest in Trusts – The fair value of beneficial interests in perpetual and charitable trusts classified as Level 3 was determined using an income approach based on the present value of expected future cash flows to be received from the trust or based on Rush’s beneficial interest in the investments held in the trust measured at fair value. Since Rush is unable to liquidate the funds held and benefits only from the distributions generated off of such investments, the interest in such trusts are all shown in Level 3.

Obligations Under Interest Rate Swap Agreements – The fair value of Rush’s obligations under interest rate swap agreements classified as Level 2 is valued using a market approach. The valuation is based on a determination of market expectations relating to the future cash flows associated with the swap contract using sophisticated modeling based on observable market-based inputs, such as interest rate curves. The fair value of the obligation reported in Rush’s component balance sheets includes an adjustment for the Obligated Group’s credit risk but may not be indicative of the value Rush would be required to pay upon early termination of the swap agreements.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while Rush believes that its methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Investments in Entities that Report Fair Value Using NAV

Included within the fair value table above are investments in certain entities that report fair value using a calculated NAV or its equivalent. These investments consist of hedge fund of funds and private equity partnerships within alternative investments. The NAV instruments listed in the fair value measurement tables use the following valuation techniques and inputs as of the valuation date:

Fund Investments – Investments within this category consist of public equity funds and multi-asset funds. The fair value of public equity funds classified at NAV are primarily determined using the calculated NAV at the valuation date under a market approach. This includes investments in commingled funds that invest primarily in domestic and foreign equity securities whose underlying values have a readily determinable market value or based on a net asset value. Multi-asset funds include investments in fund of funds that seek to provide both capital appreciation and income by investing in both traditional and alternative asset funds. The asset allocation is driven by the fund manager’s long-range forecasts of asset-class real returns. Investments in this category classified as NAV are held in a commingled fund that invests primarily in global equity and bond mutual funds. Included in this category is a multistrategy hedge fund, priced on the last business day of each calendar month. The values for underlying investments are estimated based on many factors, including operating performance, balance sheet indicators, growth, and other market and business fundamentals. The underlying investment strategies can include long-short, global macro, fixed-income and currency hedges, and other tactical opportunity-related strategies.

Alternative Investments – Investments within this category consist primarily of hedge fund of funds and private equity partnerships. The hedge fund of funds consist of diversified investments including equity long/short, credit long/short, event-drive, relative value, global opportunities, and other multistrategy funds. Hedge fund of funds investments are valued based on Rush’s ownership interest in the NAV of the respective fund as estimated by the general partner, which approximates fair value. Effective July 1, 2012, Rush elected to measure all new private equity partnerships entered into on or after July 1, 2012, at fair value (see Note 2). Private equity partnerships are valued based on the estimated fair values of the nonmarketable private equity partnerships in which it invests, which is an equivalent of NAV.

The following table summarizes the attributes relating to the nature and risk of such investments as of June 30, 2016:

Endowment Investment and Spending Policies

Rush has adopted endowment investment and spending policies to preserve purchasing power over the long term and provide stable annual support to the programs supported by the endowment, including professorships, research and education, free care, student financial aid, scholarships, and fellowships. Approximately 16% and 22% of Rush’s endowment is available for general purposes for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Investment Committee of the Board of Trustees is responsible for defining and reviewing the investment policy to determine an appropriate long-term asset allocation policy. The asset allocation policy reflects the objective with allocations structured for capital growth and inflation protection over the long term. The current asset allocation targets and ranges as well as the asset allocation as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, are as follows:

Asset Class 2016 2015

Global equity 49 % 42 % Multi Asset Fund 21 22 Private equity 12 11 Fixed income 12 20 Real estate 5 5 Cash 1 ----

Percentage of Endowment AssetsTarget Allocation and Range

45% (+/- 5%)20% (+/- 5%)

5% (+/-5%)

15% (+/- 5%)15% (+/- 5%)

To achieve its long-term rate of return objectives, Rush relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current income (interest and dividends). The expected long-term rate of return target of the endowment given its current asset allocation structure is approximately 7.0%. Actual returns in any given year may vary from this amount. Rush has established market-related benchmarks to evaluate the endowment fund’s performance on an ongoing basis.

The Finance Committee of the Board of Trustees approves the annual spending policy for program support. In establishing the annual spending policy, Rush’s main objectives are to provide for intergenerational equity over the long term, the concept that future beneficiaries will receive the same level of support as current beneficiaries on an inflation-adjusted basis, and to maximize annual support to the programs supported by the endowment. The spending rate was 4.0% for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and income from the endowment fund provided $17,694 and $17,002 of support for Rush’s programs during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Obligated Group currently is party to two interest rate swap agreements (the “Swap Agreements”), which were originally entered into in connection with the issuance of the Series 2006A Bonds, which were refinanced during fiscal year 2009.

Management has not designated the Swap Agreements as hedging instruments. Amounts recorded in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations and changes in net assets for the Swap Agreements for fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, were as follows:

This document is dated as of October 21, 2016. 33

The Swap Agreements also require either party to post collateral in the form of cash and certain cash equivalents to secure potential termination payments. The amount of collateral that is required to be posted is based on the relevant party’s long-term credit rating. Based on its current rating, the Obligated Group is required to post collateral with the Swap Counterparties in the event that the market value of the Swap Agreements exceeds $(25.0) million or $(12.5) million for each Swap Agreement. As of June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, the Obligated Group was not required to post any collateral with the Swap Counterparties.

Affiliations, Merger, Acquisition and Divestiture

Management of the Obligated Group is actively considering and evaluating potential affiliation candidates as part of the overall strategic planning and development process. As part of its ongoing planning and property management functions, management reviews the use, compatibility and business viability of many of the operations of the Obligated Group, and from time to time Obligated Group Members may pursue changes in the use of, or disposition of, their facilities. The Members of the Obligated Group receive offers from and/or conduct discussions with third-parties about potential affiliations and joint venture opportunities. As a result, it is possible that the current organization, assets, operations and financial condition of the Obligated Group may change from time to time as a result of such affiliations, mergers, acquisitions and divestitures.

In addition to relationships with other hospitals and physicians, the Members of the Obligated Group may consider investments, ventures, affiliations, development and acquisition of other health care-related entities. These may include home healthcare, long-term care entities or operations, infusion providers, pharmaceutical providers, and other health care enterprises that support the overall operations of the Members of the Obligated Group. In addition, the Members of the Obligated Group may pursue transactions with health insurers, HMOs, preferred provider organizations, third-party administrators and other health insurance-related businesses. Because of the integration occurring throughout the health care field, management will consider these arrangements if there is a perceived strategic or operational benefit for the Obligated Group. Any such investment, venture, affiliate, development or acquisition may involve significant capital commitments and/or capital or operating risk (including, potentially, insurance risk) in a business in which the Members of the Obligated Group may have less expertise than in hospital operations. There can be no assurance that these projects, if pursued, will not lead to material adverse consequences to the Obligated Group.

The Obligated Group plans to enhance its academic health system to fully integrate clinical, research, education and community priorities under a common corporate parent organization for both Rush and RCMC. A streamlined system parent board will be formed to oversee the system’s strategy and vision, and will have joint representation from both Rush and RCMC. Rush and RCMC entered into a non-binding letter of intent on June 7, 2016 and the due diligence and regulatory review period has been initiated, with an expected implementation targeted for fiscal year 2017. There is no assurance that this transaction will be consummated or what the final terms may be.

solutions that enable the Obligated Group to achieve its mission, vision and values. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the Obligated Group has spent $89.3 million on IT expenditures, which represents 4.1% of its operating revenue.

Campus Transformation

RUMC is in the initial stages of a strategic master facility plan, which includes new developments on campus as well as other offsite investments.

In April 2016, RUMC opened a new 10,000 sq. ft. outpatient clinic in Chicago’s River North neighborhood. The practice includes five primary care physicians, two specialists in obstetrics and gynecology, a dermatologist and advanced practice nurses. The staff provides care for a wide range of patients, from those needing routine primary care to those requiring ongoing support to manage chronic diseases such as diabetes, asthma and high blood pressure.

In June 2016, RUMC filed a certificate of need application to build an outpatient health center within a new 15-story mixed used residential development in Chicago’s South Loop neighborhood. Pending approval, the outpatient health center would open in the summer of 2018 and would occupy three floors of the building. RUMC anticipates the center would include primary care, cardiology, dermatology, endocrinology, obstetrics and gynecology, otolaryngology, and rheumatology specialties. In addition, RUMC has filed two additional certificate of need applications in August 2016 to build a three-story medical professional building focused on orthopedic-related services in Oak Brook. Pending approval, the medical building would house three primary tenants: a multi-specialty ambulatory surgical treatment center, offices for Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush and offices for other faculty physicians of RUMC.

Recent Transactions

During December 2015, RUMC settled a breach of contract claim against architect Perkins+Will over the design of the Tower. RUMC received $9 million as a result of the settlement.

RCMC has drawn $14.6 million on a line of credit through during fiscal year 2016, which is being used to fund current construction projects. The maturity date is December 31, 2018.

In June 2016, RUMC refinanced the Series 2008 bonds in order to convert the 3-year letter of credit to a 10-year private loan. No other changes to the original terms and conditions were made. The refinancing resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.8 million.

There were no other significant or material transactions outside the ordinary course of business during fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.

Subsequent Events

The Obligated Group has evaluated events occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date through October 21, 2016, the date this annual report was issued. In August 2016, RUMC received a litigation settlement for $8 million related to construction and design defects in the Tower. See page 27 of this annual report for additional details. There were no other material subsequent events during this time period.

Financial Results Compared to Budget for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016

The Boards of Trustees of each organization are required to approve an annual budget that is aligned with strategic plans approved by the system governance boards. The budget remains in effect the entire fiscal year. An actual to budget comparison and analysis is presented monthly in the interim financial statements, and the information for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 is presented below.

The Obligated Group reported an excess of revenue over expenses of $104.8 million for fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 compared to a budgeted excess of revenue over expenses of $108.9 million. Operating income was $91.2 million, which exceeded budget by $7.1 million or 8.5%. The Obligated Group experienced a nonoperating income contributing to the performance during fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 compared to budget. Nonoperating income totaled $13.6 million versus a budget of $24.8 million, which is an unfavorable variance of $11.2 million. The variance was mainly driven by investment losses.
