(3)  The obligation of any agency to make the payments required pursuant to this subdivision shall be subordinate to the lien of any pledge of collateral securing, directly or indirectly, the payment of the principal, or interest on any bonds of the agency including, without limitation, bonds secured by a pledge of taxes allocated to the agency pursuant to Section 33670. Agencies shall factor in the fiscal obligations created by this subdivision when issuing bonded indebtedness.

(c) (1) Notwithstanding any other law, to make the full allocation required by this section, an agency may borrow from either the amount required to be allocated to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund, pursuant to Sections 33334.2, 33334.3, and 33334.6, or any moneys in that fund, or both, unless executed contracts exist that would be impaired if the agency reduced the amount allocated to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund or the amount of moneys in the fund, or both, pursuant to the authority of this subdivision.

(2)  As a condition of borrowing pursuant to this subdivision, an agency shall make a finding that there are insufficient other moneys to meet the requirements of subdivision (a). Funds borrowed pursuant to this subdivision shall be repaid in full on or before June 30, 2015. An agency that fails to repay funds borrowed pursuant to this subdivision shall be required to allocate an additional 5 percent of all taxes that are allocated to that agency pursuant to Section 33670 for low- and moderate-income housing for the remainder of the time the agency receives tax revenue pursuant to Section 33670.

(e)  The allocation obligations imposed by this section, including amounts owed, if any, created under this section, are hereby declared to be an indebtedness of the redevelopment project to which they relate, payable from taxes allocated to the agency pursuant to Section 33670, and shall constitute an indebtedness of the agency with respect to the redevelopment project until paid in full.

(f)  It is the intent of the Legislature, in enacting this section, that these allocations directly or indirectly assist in the financing or refinancing, in whole or in part, of the community’s redevelopment project pursuant to Section 16 of Article XVI of the California Constitution.

The amount of property tax revenues that is the product of this reduction shall be deposited in the county Supplemental Revenue Augmentation Fund established pursuant to Section 100.06 of the Revenue and Taxation Code.

(2)  For the purposes of making the computations required by Section 8 of Article XVI of the California Constitution, the total amount of Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund moneys a district receives, regardless of the actual date the funds are received, pursuant to this section from each redevelopment agency shall be deemed to be “allocated local proceeds of taxes,” as defined in subdivisions (g) and (h) of Section 41202, and for purposes of Section 42238 of the Education Code, for the 2009–10 fiscal year.

(l)  For purposes of this section, “K-12 school district” has the same meaning as a school district, as defined in Section 80 of the Education Code.
