    Pamela TESTA and Leonard Testa, Appellants, v. Dr. William M. PFAFF, Dr. Stephen L. Hill, Dr. Harry Berger, Dr. Nikolaus Gravenstein, and Shands Teaching Hospital And Clinics, Inc., Appellees.
    No. AZ-8.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    Feb. 20, 1985.
    Greg W. Sahlsten of T.G. LaGrone & Associates, Orlando, for appellants.
    John D. Jopling of Dell, Graham, Will-cox, Barber, Henderson, Monaco & Cates, Gainesville, for appellees.
   PER CURIAM.

This cause is before us on appeal from a summary judgment entered in favor of defendants Gravenstein and Hill, appellees herein, in a suit for medical malpractice filed by appellants Testa against various doctors and Shands Teaching Hospital and Clinics, Inc. The complaint alleges, in part, that defendant Doctors Gravenstein and Hill were agents, servants, and/or employees of Shands, and at all times material, were acting within the scope and course of such agency.

Prior to answer, defendants Gravenstein and Hill filed motions for summary judgment based on the sovereign immunity provisions of Section 768.28(9), Florida Statutes (1981). Affidavits filed in support of the motions stated, simply, that at all material times, defendants were acting as agents or employees of the Board of Regents of the State of Florida as resident physicians and that defendants were therefore entitled to personal immunity from suit.

The trial court entered summary judgment in favor of defendants Hill and Gra-venstein based on Section 768.28(9), Florida Statutes.

After argument and upon consideration of, the record and briefs, we must reverse summary judgment entered in favor of defendants Hill and Gravenstein. The affirmative defense of sovereign immunity in this case requires determination of the relationship^) of the defendants to the Board of Regents of Florida. The affidavits filed are insufficient since they are based on ultimate facts or factual conclusions and are without statement of the underlying facts which give rise to such conclusions. Lake v. Konstantinu, 189 So.2d 171 (Fla. 2d DCA 1966); Dean v. Gold Coast Theatres, Inc., 156 So.2d 546 (Fla. 2d DCA 1963).

Accordingly, the judgment must be reversed and the cause remanded for further proceedings consistent herewith.

      . As defined in Black’s Law Dictionary, “ultimate facts” are:
      Facts necessary and essential for a decision by a court. Those facts which it is expected evidence will support. Those facts found in that vaguely defined field lying between evidential facts on the one side and the primary issue or conclusion of law on the other, being but the logical results of the proofs or in other words mere conclusions of fact. The final or resulting fact reached by processes of logical reasoning from the detached or successive facts in evidence, and which is fundamental and determinative of the whole case.
