On November 21, 2006, Travelex, the currency exchange <strong>and</strong> ATM service provider at the <strong>Airport</strong>,<br />

exercised its option to extend it lease for five years through December 9, 2012. The terms <strong>of</strong> the lease extension<br />

provide for a MAG <strong>of</strong> $4.1 million (adjusted annually to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index), an increase<br />

in rent per enplaned passenger from $0.88 to $0.90 <strong>and</strong> improvements to facility designs financed by Travelex. In<br />

addition, Travelex opened two additional facilities in the ITC in November 2007.<br />

International Terminal Complex Food <strong>and</strong> Beverage Program<br />

With the opening <strong>of</strong> the ITC in December 2000, the <strong>Airport</strong> increased its total food <strong>and</strong> retail concessions<br />

space from 35,432 square feet to 89,080 square feet (subsequently increased to 91,857 square feet), <strong>and</strong> initiated a<br />

food <strong>and</strong> beverage program that showcases the quality <strong>and</strong> diversity <strong>of</strong> local <strong>San</strong> Francisco Bay Area restaurants.<br />

The original 18 restaurants in the ITC were selected from the nine Bay Area counties. This program was designed<br />

to provide international <strong>and</strong> domestic travelers with a welcoming taste <strong>of</strong> the Bay Area culinary experience.<br />

Domestic Terminal Food <strong>and</strong> Beverage Program<br />

Since 2003, the <strong>Commission</strong> has operated its food <strong>and</strong> beverage program in a manner similar to the one<br />

implemented in connection with the ITC to redevelop food <strong>and</strong> beverage concessions in the approximately<br />

48,430 leasable square feet (subsequently exp<strong>and</strong>ed to 51,517 leasable square feet) <strong>of</strong> available food <strong>and</strong> beverage<br />

space in Terminals 1 <strong>and</strong> 3. This program, known as the “<strong>San</strong> Francisco Marketplace,” targets food <strong>and</strong> beverage<br />

companies that deliver a high quality dining experience, <strong>and</strong> is representative <strong>of</strong> <strong>San</strong> Francisco <strong>and</strong> the Bay Area.<br />

Approximately 82% <strong>of</strong> the food <strong>and</strong> beverage companies operating in Terminals 1 <strong>and</strong> 3 are owned by Bay Area<br />

residents. As was the case with the ITC <strong>and</strong> in order to maximize revenues to the <strong>Airport</strong>, the selected companies<br />

entered into direct leases with the <strong>Airport</strong>. All restaurants in the <strong>San</strong> Francisco Marketplace feature food to-go for<br />

the convenience <strong>of</strong> passengers traveling on flights that do not serve meals. Twelve <strong>of</strong> the 42 restaurants in the<br />

<strong>San</strong> Francisco Marketplace are located in pre-security areas accessible to the general public.<br />

In connection with the planned re-opening <strong>of</strong> Terminal 2 in spring 2011, the <strong>Commission</strong> is continuing the<br />

<strong>San</strong> Francisco Marketplace program for the development <strong>of</strong> approximately 16,975 leasable square feet <strong>of</strong> food <strong>and</strong><br />

beverage establishments. The new restaurants will each have a “sustainable food” focus. The <strong>Commission</strong> expects<br />

to approve leases with the selected restaurants in spring 2010.<br />

Advertising Program<br />

In 2000, Transportation Media Inc., which was subsequently acquired by Clear Channel <strong>Airport</strong>s, was<br />

selected by the <strong>Commission</strong> through a competitive process to provide advertising in limited areas within the <strong>Airport</strong>.<br />

The agreement (the “Advertising Lease”) was for a term <strong>of</strong> five years with three one-year options to extend. Annual<br />

base rental payable under the agreement was the higher <strong>of</strong> the MAG, which was equal to $4,050,000, or 70% <strong>of</strong><br />

gross receipts charged with respect to such year with base rental adjusted annually based on the Consumers Price<br />

Index. In 2002 <strong>and</strong> 2003, the <strong>Commission</strong> authorized Clear Channel <strong>Airport</strong>s to add advertising locations in<br />

additional areas within the <strong>Airport</strong> in exchange for increases in its rental payments.<br />

In 2005, Clear Channel <strong>Airport</strong>s notified the <strong>Airport</strong> <strong>of</strong> its intention to exercise its five-year lease renewal<br />

option. The terms <strong>of</strong> the Advertising Lease provide for rental payments equal to the higher <strong>of</strong> the MAG set forth<br />

below or 70% <strong>of</strong> gross receipts.<br />

In September 2007, the <strong>Commission</strong> approved the early exercise by Clear Channel <strong>Airport</strong>s <strong>of</strong> three<br />

one-year extensions to the Advertising Lease <strong>and</strong> the execution <strong>of</strong> a third amendment thereto. The third amendment<br />

to the Advertising Lease: (i) extends the expiration date to March 31, 2014; (ii) authorizes advertising <strong>and</strong> other<br />

series; (iii) amends the annual base rental payment to the greater <strong>of</strong> the MAG (in the amount <strong>of</strong> $6,535,000) or<br />

approximately 70% <strong>of</strong> gross receipts; <strong>and</strong> (iv) commencing April 1, 2012, amends the MAG to the greater <strong>of</strong> the<br />

MAG for the immediately prior lease year or 85% <strong>of</strong> actual rent paid in the immediately prior lease year.<br />
