CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS-KEY PARTNERS

• Strong commitment to the success of the Foundation to ensure support of the local community.

• Since January 2013, the Panthers Foundation has donated over $1.5M to local charities:

The following are important provisions of the proposal before the Commission:

• $39M is earmarked for Capital Improvements ($3M per year average) to keep the Arena in a State of the Art condition

• Letter of Credit Requirement up to $72M to ensure County is made whole if termination or bankruptcy

• Approximately 100 acres (parking lots) returned to County –allows County to generate revenues from development and taxable value of new improvements*

*Subject to Boyd Gaming Agreement in effect through December 31, 2015.

Development adjacent to the BB&T Center is a significant asset as has been proven in other venues throughout North America

Notable existing projectsLos Angeles (arena)Toronto (arena)Brooklyn (arena)Dallas (arena)Columbus (arena)Philadelphia (arena)San Diego (ballpark)St. Louis (ballpark)Boston/Foxboro (NFL stadium)

Beyer Blinder Belle has conducted a massing study showing that the parking lots have significant development potential.

Historically, the arena has used 56% of the 2 cent TDT (with 5.1% actual growth rate). Over the next 13 years, this proposal results in 47% of the TDT being used for the Arena (assuming only 4% annual growth rate).
