DEPARTMENT OF AVIATION WRITTEN STAFF BRIEFINGS Chief Executive Officer’s Report regarding the suspension of domestic new service incentives, update on federal relief funds, and an update on ABLE bonds. (Prepared by Jacqueline Yaft, Chief Executive Officer) MEMORANDUM DATE: July 13, 2021 TO: Chair Eugene Sepulveda and Airport Advisory Commissioners FROM: Jacqueline Yaft, Chief Executive Officer, Department of Aviation SUBJECT: Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) Update To keep Airport Advisory Commission members apprised of updates from the Department of Aviation, we intend to share monthly updates with you. Please accept the following memo as the latest update from Aviation staff. We thank you for your continued support, especially as AUS navigates the challenges we continue to face due to the effects of the pandemic. Austin-Bergstrom International Airport remains as committed to the health and safety of passengers and employees as ever and we continue to implement health and safety protocols and adapt to the required operational changes. We look forward to providing you with regular updates of our AUS operations. Suspension of new service incentives Due to financial considerations, the City of Austin, Texas, will immediately suspend incentives provided for new scheduled service to unserved markets in the Continental United States. Such incentives are indicated in Paragraph 2.B of the incentive program that was approved as Adopted Rule No. R161- 21.09 on January 21, 2021. Incentives may still be offered under Paragraph 2.A for any new air carrier that initiates nonstop service to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport subject to the City’s financial capabilities at such time new service is announced. We hope to reinstate incentives for new air service within the Continental United States once conditions permit and all incumbent or potential carriers will be advised at such time Federal relief funding update The Properties team completed all required ACDBE calls in cooperation with the federal relief funds that were specifically allocated for concessions relief. Letters went out to all companies explaining the funding breakdown that was provided from the 1 CARES Act fund as well as the supplemental three months of MAGCF relief the airport added to the CRRSA funds. The Department of Aviation will convey additional allocated funds once the ARPA ACT funds are further defined by the FAA. The ACDBE firms asked the airport for a term extension, however, staff feel that the remaining 6-7 year terms should be sufficient for all companies to make a healthy profit margin. The FAA announced the new COVID-19 Airport Rescue Grant Program for which AUS will be submitting applications. AUS has a potential to apply for just over $61 million. ABLE Bond updates The ABLE Bond Trustee has given a Notice of Default on the 2017 Refunding Bonds for the outstanding 2020 Audited Financial Statements and other accompanying documents. Their letter dated May 25, 2021, sent via UPS, was not received by anyone at ABLE or the Aviation Finance Department and the tracking number showed it was returned to UPS. On June 21, they made us aware via email of this letter and we have no acknowledged receipt. The audited financial statements and the accompanying documents to the auditors have received the final signatures on June 24 went out to the Trustee. After the audited financial statements are submitted, we could still be in default based on not meeting the rate covenant ratio in FY2020. Our covenant ratio for FY2020 is 0.04 and anything below 1.00 is an event of default. The Trustee will have to determine whether we are in an event of default due to not meeting the rate covenant ratio in FY2020 or whether submitting a budget in FY2021 with a covenant ratio above 1.00 takes ABLE out of default. The FY2021 Budget and covenant calculation were already provided to the Trustee with a ratio above 1.00. A meeting was held on June 23 regarding the above matters with the Bond Counsel, PFM and Treasury and the consensus was we are doing everything we can to comply with the Bond indenture. PFM is coordinating a meeting with the Trustee to see if there will be any other outstanding issues after the financial statements are submitted. Aviation would like to stress that this is not a bond default since the bond holders are getting paid, but rather a default in the terms of the indenture. 2 AIRPORT ADVISORY COMMISSION ITEM 2b. DEPARTMENT OF AVIATION WRITTEN STAFF BRIEFINGS b) AUS May 2021 Financial Results (Prepared by Rajeev Thomas, Deputy Chief – Finance) MEMORANDUM TO: Airport Advisory Commissioners FROM: Rajeev Thomas, Deputy Chief - Finance, Aviation Department DATE: July 13, 2021 SUBJECT: Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) Update COVID-19 Financial Impact and May 2021 Financial Results May’s total passenger numbers were 746% higher than May 2020 which was significantly impacted by the pandemic. Enplaned passengers continue to increase and came in at 563,827 exceeding the 500k mark for the first since the pandemic. May 2021 enplanements were at 72% of May 2019 enplaned passengers. For the previous 3 months AUS had averaged 47% of 2019 passengers. Estimated passenger numbers for June shows continued improvement in passengers and flight operations. Please find attached the May 2021 financial results for AUS. This report outlines that May’s 2021 enplanements were 752.9% higher or 497,723, higher than May 2020. May 2021 enplanements Year to Date (YTD) are down 36.8% over prior year. Cargo volume increased 36.8% versus May 2020, and YTD cargo volume is 29.3% higher than the prior year. Excluding mail and belly freight, YTD cargo volume is up 43.6% over prior year. Operating revenues increased 106.3% over the prior year month or $7.5M, and lower by 15.2% or ($16.3M) May YTD. Year to Date revenues are 11.0% higher or $9.0M above budget. The lower revenues year over year were driven by lower landing weights, down YTD by 29%, as well as less parking and ground transportation services provided. Lower revenues are also a result of lower food, beverage, and retail concessions as well as lower rental car revenues and other rentals and fees. Our operating expenses continue to track to our year end forecasts even though we have ramped up our hiring and staffing levels to meet the increase in passenger levels 1 and aircraft operations. The continued focus on operational efficiencies and expense savings has resulted in favorable YTD expenses to budget and current year estimates. Accordingly, May’s aviation related operating expenses were $6.5M favorable to the budget YTD, and 20.6% or $14.2M lower than prior YTD. The City of Austin allocated costs were in line with the airport’s budget and debt service costs were as forecasted. Overall, May’s 2021 net income was $3.2M versus ($4.9M) for May 2020. YTD net income is ($2.1M), and ($4.3M) lower than prior year due to lower revenues ($16.3M). May YTD net income is $15.7M higher than budgeted due to higher revenues and lower expenses than budget. The Airport received $29.5M YTD in Cares Act reimbursement funds for debt service.

DEPARTMENT OF AVIATION WRITTEN STAFF BRIEFINGS c) AUS Air Service Update (Prepared by Jamy Kazanoff, Air Service Development) July 2021 Air Service Snapshot As airlines continue to announce and start new service for the summer and beyond, it is evident they have confidence in summer leisure travel and more importantly, the Austin Texas market. Domestic travel and Latin America/Caribbean travel will be strong this summer season and some travel will be permissible to Europe as well. Signs also point to the reopening of the Canadian border in late July. According to the airlines, this is especially attributable to widespread vaccine distribution and availability as well as the relaxation of restrictions throughout the country. Despite the bullish leisure travel outlook, corporate bookings are still down 51% compared to 2019 levels according to Bank of America and which is quite an improvement over -67% last month. Airlines are hopeful for a recovery in corporate bookings starting in the Fall. The chart below shows how COVID-19 has affected AUS capacity with year-over-year change in seat capacity through March 2021, and then 2019 comparisons starting in April. Year-over-year capacity recovered slightly during last summer, then plateaued at down 50% to 60% and is now showing further recovery from March onwards. July 2021 schedules have been adjusted by all carriers and most have adjusted August as well. Based on currently filed schedules, capacity will be nearly even with 2019 levels in August and slightly ahead for September. Some carriers will provide as much capacity as 2019 during the summer but most will still be down slightly. The route map below provides a snapshot of current air service at AUS. Highlights of recent air service announcements/developments include: • KLM has loaded AMS service for sale effective March 28, 2022 with 3/week on the 292-seat A330-300 • Aeromexico resumed daily nonstop service to MEX on July 2 • VivaAerobus announced year-round service to MTY and seasonal service to MEX which was supposed to launch June 19 with 2/week but due to the FAA downgrade of Mexico to Category 2 for aviation oversight and safety, that may be postponed for 4-6 months • Southwest will serve a record 38 cities this summer including BUR, MIA, MSP, ORD, SNA, SLC & SMF • American is launching 8 new year-round routes (BNA, BOS, IAD, LAS, MCO, MSY, RDU, TPA) and 4 seasonal routes (ASE, NAS, SJD & VPS) this summer; this Fall, AA will add 10 new domestic markets (CVG, ELP, IND, JAX, MCI, OKC, RNO, SJU, STL & TUL) and 4 new international markets (CUN, LIR, PUJ & PVR) up to 75 daily flights • British Airways could resume service Aug. 30 at the earliest; Lufthansa could resume Sept. 1 at the earliest; Air Canada could resume service Sept. 10 at the earliest; WestJet is scheduled to return on May 1, 2022 • Allegiant started new service to BZN on May 27 and XNA on July 2 and announced new service to the following markets in November with the start of the new base: AMA, FSD, PVU, SDF, SGF, SNA & TUL • Alaska will serve PSP 5/wk from November 19 – April 18; daily BOI service started on June 17 • Spirit started PNS (3/wk) on June 10; CUN & DTW returned in June; EWR returns in July; MSY & ORD in September; permanently discontinued BNA, BWI & DEN service • Hawaiian started nonstop service to HNL with 278-seat Airbus A330 aircraft twice weekly on April 22 (AUS departures on Thursday and Sunday) and a third frequency will operate May 28 – August 13 • Taos Air resumed service July 1-Sept 27 with 2/wk and then return in the winter for the ski season • JetBlue will debut the A220 on AUS-BOS Sept. 6-Oct. 30; JetBlue discontinued MCO, RDU and SFO AUS capacity shares by airline in July 2021 are somewhat similar to June 2019 except that American’s capacity share is up 5 percentage points thanks in part to the new domestic and international routes starting this summer. Alaska and Southwest’s capacity shares have increased as well as recently announced service has started this summer. AIRPORT ADVISORY COMMISSION ITEM 4a.

For More Information: Tracy Thompson, Chief Officer- Administration & External Affairs - 512-530-5023; Shane Harbinson, Airport Deputy Chief - 512-530- 6652; or David Smythe-Macaulay, Aviation Project Manager - 512-530-6601. Council Committee, Boards and Commission Action: Reviewed by the Aviation Advisory Commission on 7/13/2021. Additional Backup Information: This Request for Council Action (RCA) is to update the total contract amount for the intersection and operational improvements as required by TxDOT. The City of Austin, Department of Aviation will cover any cost overruns (if any) through an amendment to the LOSA and required Council approval. The improvements on US 183 at Metropolis Drive are being undertaken by the Department of Aviation at the request of AUS Fuel Company LLC (the Tenant) which comprises a consortium of signatory airlines, to provide fuel to the airlines at AUS. All City costs, including overruns, related to this LOSA will be reimbursed by the Tenant who is responsible for the total contract amount of all improvements and potential changes under the terms of the Tenant’s contract with the Department of Aviation. The Department of Aviation executed the lease agreement with the Tenant in December 2000 and amended it in October 2019 to reflect the new terms related to this LOSA. Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) is classified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a national priority airport and is the fifth busiest airport in Texas. Passenger traffic at the airport has followed a consistent upward trend. The Airport Master Plan describes the need for additional airline fuel capacity due to continued growth of the airport. This growth results in a continuing need for more airline fuel capacity, which requires the expansion of the airline fuel storage facility. The current facility will no longer be able to handle the demand for jet fuel. As such, a larger facility is required to meet the needs up to 2040 and beyond. City of Austin Page 1 of 2 Printed on 7/8/2021 powered by Legistar™ (cid:5) (cid:6) File #: 21-2349, Agenda Item #: 7. 7/29/2021(cid:4) The Tenant has proposed improvements to their existing fuel storage facility on Spirit of Texas Drive and construction of a new larger fuel storage facility along US 183 at Metropolis Drive. To facilitate the overall project objectives, this request will allow intersection and operational improvements within the TxDOT Right Of Way (ROW) for access to the proposed fuel storage facility along US 183 at Metropolis Drive. The proposed facility will include bulk fuel storage tanks, offloading racks, and two underground fuel transfer lines to the existing facility. Once complete, all offloading operations at the existing facility will be moved to the US 183 facility. The method of fueling aircraft fueling vehicles will not change. Fuel will be pumped via the proposed fuel transfer line from the proposed fuel storage facility to the existing fuel storage facility where aircraft fueling vehicles will be filled. An Environmental Assessment (EA) was performed as required by the FAA to document and evaluate the environmental impacts resulting from improvements to the fuel farm expansion. Implementation of this expansion will not result in impacts that exceed any of the thresholds established within FAA Orders 1050.1F or 5050.4B. Additionally, no formal, agency required mitigation measures are required. To minimize potential impacts during construction, best management practices will be employed. Potential impacts resulting from the introduction of an additional access point at the intersection of Highway 183 and Metropolis Drive will be minimized with the installation of a 4th traffic signal, as well as acceleration and deceleration lanes for fuel trucks that access the site. Without approval, the fuel farm expansion will not be undertaken, resulting in a shortage of fuel which may reduce the ability to fuel the forecasted increase in air traffic at AUS, and will require the undesirable increase in fueling truck trips to AUS on surrounding highway and road systems - which in turn results in overall higher fuel costs for those airlines serving AUS. This project is located within District 2. Strategic Outcome(s): Mobility. City of Austin Page 2 of 2 Printed on 7/8/2021 powered by Legistar™ (cid:5) (cid:6) AIRPORT ADVISORY COMMISSION ITEM 4c.

Council Committee, Boards and Commission Action: N/A Additional Backup Information: State Statute governs construction procurement for municipalities. The standard method of contracting used for construction services is competitive bidding where the contract is awarded to the lowest responsible bidder. Texas Government Code Chapter 2269 allows for methodologies alternate to low bidding method which may provide the best value to the municipality. These alternate methodologies include: Competitive Sealed proposals, Construction Manager- at-Risk, Design-Build, and Job Order Contracting. Texas Local Government Code Section 252.022(d) allows the City to adopt and use an alternative method such as Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMR) under Chapter 2269 of the Texas Government Code if such a method City of Austin Page 1 of 2 Printed on 6/24/2021 powered by Legistar™ (cid:5) (cid:6) File #: 21-2375, Agenda Item #: 7/29/2021(cid:4) provides a better value for the City. The CMR method is a project delivery method where the City will contract with an architect/engineer to perform design services and separately contract with a CMR to perform preconstruction and construction phase services. The role of the CMR goes beyond performing general contractor services. The CMR is under contract early in the design process to perform key preconstruction phase services such as collaborating with the City and the design team on scope and constructability and to optimize the design and control costs and budgets, and to provide quality assurance-quality control. After design, and before the CMR begins construction, the City will negotiate and execute a Guaranteed Maximum Price for the remainder of the work, including actual construction. A CMR firm will be selected by a City-staffed evaluation panel that will evaluate and score proposals based on published evaluation criteria to determine the highest ranked proposer. As set forth in Government Code 2269, the City of Austin will select a CMR firm that will provide the “best value” to the City for preconstruction and construction services for the Project. This project is to optimize the Barbara Jordan Terminal (BJT) to design and build additional gates to the existing facility and to modify the BJT to support remote passenger hardstands (Bus Gates) to safely meet the evolving needs of airlines and the travelling public,. At this time, the project schedule requires designing and starting construction concurrently to meet the expectation of airport tenants and stakeholders. Construction will take place in a highly secure areas regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). This project is on a critical path for building aircraft gates that are in immediate demand by airlines. This is a complex renovation and expansion project in an existing terminal and is the initial investment in Austin’s Airport Expansion and Development Program (AEDP). The complexity of this project being constructed in operating airport terminal locations will require a phased approach to the work to integrate the systems of existing facilities located in highly secured areas. This project requires collaboration between a best qualified designer and a highly qualified construction manager who have successfully constructed renovations in fully operational airport facilities. Due to the complexity, constraints, and renovation options available, the scope of this project will need to change and evolve as new information, regulatory requirements, and tenant expectations are clarified. The expected changes to scope require a flexible approach to project delivery. Therefore, due to the needs to phase the project, the complexity of operating in a secure area, the complex integration of this project into an existing facility, and the challenge with defining scope, schedule and budget in a rapid changing industry, staff is requesting the Construction Manager at Risk (CMR) alternative project delivery. The estimated construction budget for this work is $30,000,000 and it is anticipated that construction will begin June 2022. A delay in authorization of the methodology will result in a delay in the issuance of the solicitation and will affect the ability to perform these improvements during Fiscal Year 2021/2022 in preparation of future airport projects. This solicitation and evaluation process is approximately six months.
