3.     Industrial Development Corporation 2012 Annual Report 
Presentation documents: IDC memorandum dated March 22, 2013, provided by Diane
Campbell, Senior Corporate Financial Analyst, Finance and Budget. 
Presenter(s): Ms. Campbell. 
Ms. Campbell described the background of the Industrial Development Corporation and
reported on IDC activities in 2012, including the following relevant information: 
The IDC was established in 1982 pursuant to RCW 39.84 as a special
purpose government with limited powers. 
The purpose of establishment  was industrial expansion through taxexempt
financing. 
Debt issued through the IDC is the responsibility of the issuing company
and is always non-recourse to the Port and the IDC. 
Members of the Port Commission form the IDC Board of Directors. 
The Port may not lend or give credit to the IDC. 
There is no borrowing limit to the debt issued through the IDC. 
The cost advantage to issuing bonds through the IDC was an incentive to
accessing financing through the IDC by companies in the 1980s. It is less
advantageous to finance in this way under current tax law. 
In 2012, Delta Air Lines refunded bonds originally issued in 2001 to take
advantage of lower interest rates. 
IDC assets increased by approximately $147,000 in 2012 to a little over
$261,000, due primarily to a lump sum fee paid by Delta Air Lines in
connection with their 2012 bond refunding.

Annual income derived from customer fees and investment income was
$168,000 in 2012. 
Expenses for 2012 were approximately $11,800 primarily for
administrative expenses. 
As in 2012, there are currently three companies with outstanding bonds
totaling $82.7 million. The shortest maturity is 2021 for bonds issued by
Crowley Maritime Corporation; the longest maturity is 2030 for bonds
issued by Northwest Airlines, which later merged with Delta Air Lines. 
Ms. Campbell recommended to the Board that the current fund balance of $261,304 be
retained in order to generate sufficient investment income to offset operating expenses.
This need will remain as long as there is outstanding debt through the IDC.
Commissioner Albro commented on the potential to leverage the IDC to promote exports
and logistics and fostering the health of the maritime industrial sector. Port CEO Tay
Yoshitani offered to provide a future briefing on that subject. 
4.     Adjournment 
There being no further business, the annual meeting of the Board of Directors of the
Industrial Development Corporation of the Port of Seattle was adjourned at 1:37 p.m. 

Tom Albro 
Secretary
