Request document(s) provided by W. Allan Royal, Manager, Real Estate Development: Commission agenda memorandum dated November 25, 2014. Presenter(s): Ralph Graves, Director, Capital Development Division. Minutes of November 25, 2014, proposed for approval on June 23, 2015. PORT COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 6 of 14 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2014 The Commission received a presentation that included the following relevant information: No proposals for the contract have been opened or rejected at this time. Although not a requirement of the General Delegation of Authority, evaluation of bids generally does not begin prior to authorization by the Commission to award a contract. Motion for approval of item 4e Albro Second Bryant Motion carried by the following vote: In Favor: Albro, Bowman, Bryant, Creighton, Gregoire (5) 4f. Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to execute a lease, substantially as drafted, with ConGlobal Industries LLC for a term of 12 years for Terminals 106 west and 108. Request document(s) provided by Mike Campagnaro, Manager, Seaport Leasing and Industrial Properties, and Jasmin Contreras, Property Manager, Seaport Leasing and Industrial Properties: Commission agenda memorandum dated November 18, 2014. Draft lease agreement. Presentation slides. Presenter(s): Mr. Campagnaro. The Commission received a presentation that included the following relevant information: Terminals 106 and 108 are divided by the right-of-way for Oregon Street. Ingress and egress from the sites requires crossing this right-of-way. The terminals are located on the Duwamish Waterway. Terminal 108 has a long history of contamination. These factors make the terminals difficult to operate. ConGlobal Industries has a 20-year history with the Port and has worked with the Port over the past 2-3 years to find alternatives to allow them to continue to operate industrial yards in this location. There are alternative sites available to ConGlobal for their current use of the terminals. Net cash flow for alternative arrangements with the tenant was presented. Variation in the discount rates accounts for the risk inherent in the facility becoming vacant. Motion for approval of item 4e Creighton Second Albro Motion carried by the following vote: In Favor: Albro, Bowman, Bryant, Creighton, Gregoire (5) Minutes of November 25, 2014, proposed for approval on June 23, 2015. PORT COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 7 of 14 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2014 6. DIVISION, CORPORATE, AND COMMISSION ACTION ITEMS 6a. Approval of a motion of the Port of Seattle Commission regarding quality jobs, service and employment continuity assurances for the Airport Dining & Retail program. Request document(s) provided by Larry Ehl, Commission Chief of Staff: Text of the motion. Presenter(s): Mr. Ehl. The Commission received a presentation that included the following relevant information: Stakeholder outreach included sharing a draft of the motion in mid-October with about 110 individuals representing 37 current dining and retail tenants. About 20 people joined staff for an in-person presentation and information-gathering exercise at the Airport. The motion has been discussed at three public meetings. Outreach included business partners besides current tenants and labor representatives. Anonymous input has also been gathered by consultants. Clarifying language added subsequent to public comment includes acknowledgment of leasing models via prime concessionaires and direct leases, exclusion of employees dismissed for cause from the employee continuity pool, exemption from using the employee continuity pool for returning lessees, and clarification on paid time off expectations that employees work at least 270 days per year. Commissioner Albro stated he intends to vote against the motion on the basis of the service continuity language, which he said alters the playing field in a way that is not in the public interest and that has implications for scenarios that might be seen to require negotiation with organized labor. Commissioner Bryant acknowledged the need for policies that benefit working families through living wages and sick leave and added that support for local and small businesses, particularly minority- and women-owned businesses, also benefits working families and builds community. He stated that the motion as currently crafted does not accomplish the goal of providing support and compassion to working families while also providing opportunities for small and minority businesses. He encouraged delaying a vote on the motion until its impact on minority- and women-owned businesses is better understood and stated he would abstain if the vote were held today. The motion for agenda item 6a reads as follows: The Commission hereby reaffirms its commitment to the program principles articulated in the Commission motion of February 14, 2012, as clarified and expanded upon in the Statement in Support of the Motion and Statement of Policy Direction [attached]. Also consistent with the principles described in the Statement in Support of the Motion and Statement of Policy Direction, the Commission further directs staff to: Minutes of November 25, 2014, proposed for approval on June 23, 2015. PORT COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 8 of 14 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2014 Provide the Commission with regular reporting on the financial performance of the Airport Dining and Retail Program ("Program") as well as on the number of employees retained in Airport employment and the growth of such employment; Establish job quality reporting requirements in new leases for Program operators similar to other common financial reporting requirements; Utilize a combination of "prime" lessee/operators and direct leases with small, local, and/or disadvantaged businesses when soliciting new operators as leases expire in or after 2015; Incorporate quality jobs, service and employment continuity assurance expectations as described in this motion into solicitation processes to the maximum degree possible when recruiting and selecting restaurant, retail, duty free, and personal services operators; and Incorporate into the Internal Audit plans and programs the inclusion of periodic auditing of compliance with this motion. Motion for approval of item 6a as shown above Creighton Second Bowman Motion carried by the following vote: In Favor: Bowman, Creighton, Gregoire (3) Opposed: Albro (1) Abstaining: Bryant (1) Without objection, the Commission advanced to consideration of 6e. Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to execute an amendment to the lease and concession agreement with Anton Airfoods (operated by Host International) for an additional two years and three months under modified terms and conditions. The draft lease amendment is attached (Exhibit B). [subsequently laid on the table] Request document(s) provided by James R. Schone, Director, Aviation Business Development, and Deanna Zachrisson, Business Leader, Airport Dining and Retail: Commission agenda memorandum dated November 25, 2014. Presentation slides. Lease amendment. Presenter(s): Ms. Zachrisson; Mark Reis, Managing Director, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport; and Craig Watson, Port General Counsel. Minutes of November 25, 2014, proposed for approval on June 23, 2015. PORT COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 9 of 14 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2014 The Commission received one comprehensive presentation on agenda items 6e, 6f, and 6g that included the following relevant information: The Commission motion of September 11, 2012, included an aspirational goal that 30 percent of Airport concessions units be leased by Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprises or small or local businesses. The motion also called for negotiations with existing concessionaires to extend or execute new leases consistent with federal regulations provided the terms are competitive and doing so does not impede the ability to attract additional small businesses as direct tenants. The motion created a temporary committee of the Commission to seek guidance from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as to the allowable terms for actions to be taken pursuant to the motion. At the end of December 2012, the FAA responded with an initial review that raised several concerns including that entering into leases under the motion could subject the Port of Seattle to a formal complaint under Part 16 of FAA regulations. Concerns raised in that letter included the lack of evidence that there were available lessees to meet the target, that direction to negotiate with specific lessees might constitute a quota or "set-aside," that a local geographic preference for disadvantaged business enterprises was not permitted, and that there were concerns about Airport Improvement Program grant assurances posed by implementing the Commission's motion. Following receipt of this letter, the temporary committee was disbanded. Neither of the Commissioners who served on that committee remain on the Commission today. [Clerk's Note: A copy of the letter from the Federal Aviation Administration referenced above from December 2012 is, by reference, made a part of these minutes, is marked Exhibit D, and is available for review in Port offices.] In the absence of an established means to identify an objective Port-concessionsprogram-specific rationale for lease extensions as contemplated in the September 2012 motion, staff attempted to satisfy the intent of the motion through the Airport Dining and Retail master planning process in order to effect such lease extensions. Review of the permissibility of the lease arrangements reflected in agenda items 6e, 6f, and 6g was not requested from the FAA. The proposals arise from the past few years of lease transition planning. Port legal counsel has reviewed the lease arrangements without indicating concern over their legality. For the leases described in agenda items 6f and 6d, there are six units not leased to DBE subtenants that will be returned to the Port early by Host in order to facilitate lease transitions that will not be accompanied by the typical unamortized net book value consideration. Six leases will expire on time. Three North Satellite leases will continue temporarily until there is more clarity on concessions development connected to North Satellite renovation and expansion. Seven exclusive Host leases for Starbucks locations will be offered new leases, along with three others. No ACDBE subtenants will return units early to the Port. Four ACDBE unit leases will expire on time, and six ACDBE unit leases would be extended under the proposed terms. The criteria for these lease arrangements is what benefits the Dining and Retail program as a whole and constitutes the most efficient and customer-friendly way to manage a lease transition to a re-imagined concessions build-out in 2019. Minutes of November 25, 2014, proposed for approval on June 23, 2015. PORT COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 10 of 14 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2014 The dining and retail transition phasing plan identifies concessions packages for operator proposals and shows the current use and tenant and the projected future use of each space. Sales potential and anticipated investment requirements are included for each space. In the interim, widespread concurrent lease expirations require attention and adjustment in order to facilitate a smooth transition to the future program without disruption of service to customers or non-aeronautical revenue to the Port. The lease modifications proposed in agenda items 6e, 6f, and 6g will enable a more manageable schedule of lease expirations during the 2017-2019 timeframe. This is possible through early returns, extended operations, and new leases. Extended operations are executed under existing terms with no changes to rent structures and no new investment requirement. New leases are only considered when there is an additional benefit to the Port, such as early return of units, additional lessee investment, or higher rent. New leases come at a premium. Modification of the lease with Anthony's in agenda item 6e will achieve a higher rent with a lease term cap of 12 years, three months, while preserving needed restaurant capacity during infrastructure and program transitions. Additional job security for Anthony's employees during this period is an added benefit of the modification. The lease term cap effectively nullifies previously arranged lease options. Modification of the Host lease in agenda item 6f returns six units to the Port early at no cost to the Port. Six Host units would expire on time, while four North Satellite units would remain in operation during North Satellite infrastructure changes connected with the NorthSTAR capital program. Four subtenants expire on time, and five continue in operation for an additional year or two. Ten new leases would be granted for Host exclusive concepts and would expire in 2023. Host units extended under the new arrangement would include six units operated by ACDBEs. Including previous lease extensions, total extended lease terms for five of the Host ACDBE subleases would come to about 14.5 years. The industry standard is 10 years based on amortization requirements. New leases for Host are focused on Host-exclusive concepts, such as Starbucks Coffee and are to be leased for a short term at a premium rent. Hudson is 25 percent ACDBE-owned. Modification of the Hudson lease described in agenda item 6g results in early return of seven units to the Port at no cost, new investment of $12.3 million, higher percentage rent, and a splitting of the lease into two leases with staggered expirations. Existing tenants have not been approached with requests to change their business models. Commissioner Creighton commented on his concerns as to the objectivity of the criteria used to propose the new lease arrangements in agenda items 6e, 6f, and 6g and the implications for the Port's decision-making as a public entity. He indicated he would oppose the items if they were decided today without further clarifications. Commissioner Bowman also requested additional clarifications on the lease modifications proposed for agenda items 6e, 6f, and 6g. Without objection, further consideration of agenda item 6e was laid on the table. Minutes of November 25, 2014, proposed for approval on June 23, 2015. PORT COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES Page 11 of 14 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2014 Without objection, further consideration of the following agenda item 6f. Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to: (1) amend the current lease and concession agreements with Host International and Seattle Restaurant Associates to remove eight units and provide for the early return of six units, and (2) execute a new lease and concession agreement with Host International to operate ten food service locations at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport for a term that will expire in 2023.

Presentation slides. Phasing plan. Without objection, further consideration of the following agenda item 6g.

The first lease and concession agreement will include seven convenience retail locations and one specialty retail location for a term that will expire in 2022.

PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
