with such stated maturity and interest rate. The ownership of the Series 2011A Bonds and, upon
initial issuance, the Series 2017 Bonds, shall be registered in the registration books kept by the
Trustee in the name of Cede.
With respect to any series of Bonds registered in the name of Cede or held by a

including,without limitation, any responsibility or obligation with respect to: (i)the accuracy of
the records of the Depository or any Participant concerning any ownership interest in such series
of Bonds; (ii) the delivery to any Participant, Beneficial Owner, or Person other than the Owner,

Beneficial Owners or the Corporation that the Beneficial Owners should be able to obtain
certificated Bonds,the Bonds shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the name of Cede or
other nominee of a Depository but shall be registered in whatever name or names the Beneficial
Owners shall designate at that time, and fully registered Bond certificates shall be delivered to the
Beneficial Owners.
(b) Any supplemental indenture may contain such additional provisions
regarding the registration, transfer and exchange of Bonds as are not inconsistent with this
Indenture.
(c) The Corporation shall designate, in respect of the Bonds, a person to act as
"Bond Registrar," provided that the Bond Registrar shall be either the Trustee or a person
which would meet the requirements for qualification as a Trustee imposed by Section 11.13
hereof. The Corporation hereby appoints the Trustee its Bond Registrar in respect of the Bonds.
Any other person undertaking to act as Bond Registrar shall first execute a written agreement, in
form satisfactory to the Trustee, to perform the duties of a Bond Registrar under this Indenture,

registration of transfers of the Bonds. The Corporation shall cause the Bond Registrar to
designate, by a written notification to the Trustee, a specific office location (which may be
changed from time to time, upon similar notification) at which the Bond Register is kept. The
principal operations center of the Trustee shall be deemed to be such office in respect of any
series of Bonds for which the Trustee is acting as Bond Registrar.
The Bond Registrar shall, in any case where it is not also the Trustee, forthwith
following each Regular Record Date and at any other time as reasonably requested by the
Trustee, certify and furnish to the Trustee, and to the Paying Agent as the Trustee shall specify,
the names, addresses, and holdings of Bondholders and any other relevant information reflected

forth in the form of Bond, except as otherwise authorized by this Indenture or any amendment
thereto.

for the Bonds to be kept at the designated office of the Bond Registrar. Upon surrender for
transfer of any Bond at such office, the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees, one or more new fully
registered Bonds of authorized denomination for the aggregate principal amount which the
registered owner is entitled to receive.

authorized denomination, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Bonds to
be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Bonds are so surrendered for
exchange, the Corporation shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Bonds which the Bondholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
All Bonds presented for transfer or exchange, redemption or payment (if so
required by the Corporation, the Bond Registrar or the Trustee), shall be accompanied by a

guaranty of signature satisfactory to the Trustee, duly executed by the Owner or by his attorney

be required (i) to issue, transfer or exchange any Bond during a period beginning at the opening
of business 15 days before the day of mailing of a notice of redemption of Bonds selected for
redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to transfer or
exchange any Bond so selected for redemption in whole or in part.
New Bonds delivered upon any transfer or exchange shall be valid obligations of
the Corporation, evidencing the same debt as the Bonds surrendered, shall be secured by this
Indenture and entitled to all of the security and benefits hereof to the same extent as the Bonds
surrendered.
Section 2.05. Execution
The Bonds shall be executed by the manual or facsimile signature of the President
or any Vice President of the Corporation, and the corporate seal of the Corporation or facsimile
thereof shall be affixed, imprinted, lithographed or reproduced thereon and shall be attested by
the manual or facsimile signature of the Secretary of the Corporation.
Bonds executed as above provided may be issued and shall, upon request of the
Corporation, be authenticated by the Trustee, notwithstanding that any officer of the Corporation
signing such Bonds shall have ceased to hold office at the time of issuance or authentication or
shall not have held office at the date of the Bond.
Section 2.06. Authentication
No Bond shall be valid for any purpose until the certificate of authentication shall
have been duly executed by the Trustee, and such authentication shall be conclusive proof that
such Bond has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture and that the owner
thereof is entitled to the benefit of the trust hereby created.
Section 2.07. Payment of Principal and Interest; Interest Rights Preserved
The principal, interest, and redemption price of any Series 2011A Bond or Series
2017 Bonds shall be payable as provided in the specimen and forms of such Bonds (as

due, such principal shall remain outstanding until paid.

under this Indenture upon transfer of or exchange for or in lieu of any other Bond shall carry the
rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue,which were carried by such other Bond.
DMWEST#16808481 v7 28
Section 2.08. Persons Deemed Owners
The Corporation, the Trustee, any Paying Agent and the Bond Registrar may
deem and treat the person in whose name any Bond is registered as the absolute owner thereof

other writing thereon made by anyone other than the Corporation, the Trustee, the Paying Agent
or the Bond Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of
(and premium, if any, on), and(subject to Section 2.07 hereof) interest on, such Bond, and for all
other purposes, and neither the Corporation, the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor the Bond
Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any such
registered owner, or upon his order, shall be valid and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid,
effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such Bond.
Section 2.09. Mutilated,Destroyed,Lost or Stolen Bonds
If any Bond shall become mutilated, the Corporation shall execute, and the
Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor and denomination in
exchange and substitution for the Bond so mutilated, but only upon surrender to the Trustee of
such mutilated Bond for cancellation, subject to the Trustee and the Corporation being furnished
such reasonable indemnity as either of them may require therefor. If any Bond shall be reported
lost, stolen or destroyed, evidence as to the ownership and the loss, theft or destruction thereof
shall be submitted to the Trustee; and if such evidence shall be satisfactory to it and such
indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee and the Corporation shall be given, the Corporation shall
execute, and thereupon the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor and
denomination as the original Bond, but carrying such additional marking as will enable the
Trustee to identify such Bond as a replacement Bond. The cost of providing any substitute Bond
under the provisions of this Section shall be borne by the Bondholder for whose benefit such
substitute Bond is provided. If any such mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Bond shall have
matured or be about to mature, the Trustee shall pay to the owner the principal amount of such
Bond upon the maturity thereof and the compliance with the aforesaid conditions by such owner,
without the issuance of a substitute Bond therefor.
Every substituted Bond issued pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall constitute an
additional contractual obligation of the Corporation, whether or not the Bond alleged to have
been destroyed, lost or stolen shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to
all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Bonds duly
issued hereunder.
All Bonds shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing
provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Bonds, and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies,notwithstanding any law
or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment
of negotiable instruments or investment or other securities without their surrender.
DMWEST#16808481 v7 29
Section 2.10. Temporary Bonds
Pending preparation of definitive Bonds, or by agreement with the purchasers of
all Bonds, the Corporation may issue and, upon its request, the Trustee shall authenticate in lieu
of definitive Bonds one or more temporary printed or typewritten Bonds in authorized
denominations of substantially the tenor recited above. Upon request of the Corporation, the
Trustee shall authenticate definitive Bonds in exchange for and upon surrender of an equal
principal amount of temporary Bonds. Until so exchanged,temporary Bonds shall have the same
rights, remedies and security hereunder as definitive Bonds.
Section 2.11. Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Bonds
Bonds surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange, and Bonds
purchased from any moneys held by the Trustee hereunder or surrendered to the Trustee by the
Corporation, shall be cancelled in accordance with the customary practice of the Trustee and
applicable retention laws.
Section 2.12. Supplemental Act Provisions
By execution of this Indenture, the Corporation hereby elects to have all
provisions of the Supplemental Act apply to the issuance of the Bonds; provided, however, that
such election shall not operate to modify or limit the rights conferred on the Corporation or the
members of the Board by any other provisions of State law. Pursuant to Section 11-57-210 of
the Supplemental Act, each Bond shall recite that it is issued under the authority of the resolution
of the Board and the Supplemental Act and that it is the intention of the Corporation that such
recital shall be conclusive evidence of the validity and the regularity of the issuance of the Bonds
after their delivery for value. Pursuant to Section 11-57-208 of the Supplemental Act, the
Project Revenues, as received by or otherwise credited to the Corporation, shall immediately be
subject to the lien of such pledge without any physical delivery, filing or further act. The lien of
such pledge and the obligation to perform the contractual provisions made in this Indenture shall
have priority over any or all other obligations and liabilities of the Corporation. The lien of such
pledge shall be valid,binding and enforceable as against all persons having claims of any kind of
tort, contract or otherwise against the Corporation irrespective of whether such persons have
notice of such lien.

(a) Moneys deposited from time to time in the Interest Account and the
Principal Account in the Bond Fund, and amounts transferred from the Debt Service Reserve
Fund, shall be applied by the Trustee to pay principal and interest on an equal and ratable basis
as they become due. Principal shall be paid with money on deposit in the Principal Account in
the Bond Fund, and interest shall be paid with money on deposit in the Interest Account in the
Bond Fund. Moneys deposited in the PFC Interest Subaccount shall be used solely to pay
interest on the PFC Interest Eligible Bonds as the same becomes due on the next Interest Payment
Date and moneys on deposit in the PFC Account (other than the PFC Interest Subaccount) shall
be used solely to pay principal or redemption price of the PFC Eligible Bonds as the same
becomes due whether at maturity, upon redemption or upon acceleration following an Event of
Default; provided that moneys on deposit in the PFC Account may be released as provided in
Section 4.06(d)below. The Trustee shall record, or establish such subaccounts in the PFC Account
as are necessary to record, the receipt and disbursement of PFC Backstop Payments and other PFC
Revenue. To the extent deemed necessary by the Trustee, the Trustee shall have the right to request
and conclusively rely upon the certification of the Corporation as to what moneys constitute PFC
Backstop Payments and PFC Revenue.
(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.06(c) below, on or prior to each
Interest Payment Date the Trustee shall transfer from the PFC Account to the PFC Interest
Subaccount such portion of the PFC Revenue that may be used to pay interest on the PFC Interest
Eligible Bonds.
(c) If on any March 20 there are moneys on deposit in the PFC Account in
amounts greater than required to pay current principal or redemption price on the PFC Eligible
Bonds on the next May 1 (taking into account any transfer to be made into the PFC Interest
Subaccount pursuant to Section 4.06(b) hereof), the Trustee shall use such excess deposits in the
PFC Account to redeem a pro rata portion of (i) the Series 2011A Bonds in inverse order of
maturity, on the next May 1 pursuant to the special redemption provisions set forth in the form of
the Series 2011A Bonds and (ii) the Series 2017A Bonds in inverse order of maturity, on the next
May 1 pursuant to the special redemption provisions set forth in Section 9.01(d); provided that (i)
no such special redemption of the Series 2011A Bonds or the Series 2017A Bonds shall be made if
and to the extent that the Trustee receives written direction from the Corporation that moneys on
deposit in the PFC Account are needed (x) to be transferred to the Debt Service Reserve Fund in
order to meet a portion of the Debt Service Reserve Fund Requirement relating to the PFC Eligible
Bonds or(y)remain on deposit in the PFC Account in order to pay debt service on the Outstanding
PFC Eligible Bonds in the future years, or(ii) following the PFC Increase Date,moneys in the PFC
Account available for such redemption shall not include the amounts that the Corporation
designates in writing to the Trustee on or prior to March 20 of the applicable year to be held in the
PFC Account in order to be available for a potential release pursuant to Section 4.06(d)hereof. The
Trustee shall anticipate such use for the purpose of giving notice of redemption.
DMWEST#16808481 v7 38
(d) Following the PFC Increase Date, if, between May 2 and May 31 of any
Fiscal Year,the Trustee receives a PFC Release Certificate, then on May 31 (or if such day is not
a Business Day, on the immediately following Business Day)of the same Fiscal Year the Trustee
shall release to the County the PFC Revenue on deposit in the PFC Account. The provisions of
this Indenture relating to the release of the PFC Revenue pursuant to the PFC Release Certificate
after the PFC Increase Date shall apply only while either the Series 2011A Bonds or the Series
2017A Bonds are Outstanding, it being the intent that pledge of PFC Revenue to any other PFC
Eligible Bonds will be governed by clause (ii) of the definition of the PFC Revenue and,
therefore,provisions hereof relating to the release of the PFC Revenue will be unnecessary when
the Series 2011A Bonds and the Series 2017A Bonds are no longer outstanding.
(e) Except as provided in Section 4.06(c) above, moneys deposited in the
Bond Fund from sources other than investment earnings on any account created therein shall be
spent within a 13-month period beginning on the date of deposit, and any amount received from
the investment of money held in or transferred to any fund created or permitted herein shall be
spent within one year beginning on the date of receipt. For purposes of this provision, moneys
deposited in any account or subaccount of the Bond Fund shall be deemed spent on a first-in,
first-out basis. Unless there shall be filed with the Trustee an opinion of Bond Counsel to the
effect that investment at a different rate will not cause interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds to be
includable in gross income under the Code, investment of any amounts held in the PFC Account
for more than the periods permitted under this subsection (e) shall be yield restricted in
accordance with Section 148 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

The Trustee shall anticipate such deposits for the purpose of giving notice of
redemption. The Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Corporation, apply moneys from

the Series 2011A Bonds and the Series 2017 Bonds, on a pro-rata basis, next subject to

that the Corporation shall first furnish to the Trustee, an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the

cancellation, non-renewal or modification becomes effective. At least thirty (30) days before the
expiration of any policy of insurance herein required, the Corporation shall furnish the Trustee
evidence satisfactory to the Trustee that the policy has been renewed or replaced by another
policy conforming to the provisions of this Section 5.13, or that there is no necessity therefor
under the terms hereof. In lieu of separate policies, the Corporation may maintain blanket
policies having the coverage required herein.

to protect the Project. If the Insurance Consultant makes a recommendation to obtain additional
insurance or increase any coverage required by this Section, the Corporation covenants to obtain
such additional insurance or increase coverage, as recommended by the Insurance Consultant, as
available on commercially reasonable terms. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the
contrary, should at any time during the Term of this Indenture, the Corporation fail to comply
with any of the minimum insurance requirements of this Section, such non-compliance shall not
give rise to an event of default under this Indenture solely on the account of such non-
compliance if the Corporation shall deliver to the Trustee a letter from the Insurance Consultant,
stating that (i) such required insurance coverage is not currently available or obtainable on
commercially reasonable terms in the insurance marketplace or is otherwise not cost effective to
obtain, and providing reasonably sufficient evidence to support such statement, and (ii) that the
Corporation has purchased the insurance with coverage terms and limits most consistent with the
requirements of this Section available in the insurance marketplace on commercially reasonable
terms in the case of a public airport authority engaged in the same or similar activities and
similarly situated and that such insurance is in full effect as of the date of the letter. If the
Corporation complies with the foregoing requirement, then the Corporation shall have the right,

insurance coverage and limits that vary from that required by this Section.

including without limitation the provisions of Section 4.09 and Article VI hereof, the

furnish to the Trustee to hold in escrow an amount equal to 150% of the claimed lien, or (b)
obtain a surety bond which shall be sufficient in all respects under applicable law to discharge
his lien against the Project, or (c) obtain title insurance providing coverage with respect to any
such lien, the Corporation may in good faith contest any mechanics' or other liens filed or
established and in such event may permit the items contested to remain undischarged and/or
unsatisfied during the period of such contest and any appeal therefrom.

determines that any item of Project Equipment has become inadequate, obsolete, worn
out, unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary for the operation of the Project, the
Corporation may, at its own expense, remove and dispose of such item of Project
Equipment. In the event the then current market value of such Project Equipment is in
excess of $250,000, except as provided in subsection (b) hereof, the Corporation shall
substitute and install other items of machinery, equipment or other personal property, not
necessarily having the same function, provided that such removal and substitution shall

the Corporation may decide not to make any substitution and installation of other items of
machinery, equipment or other personal property; provided (unless the lien of the
Indenture has been discharged under Article XIV), (1) that in the case of the sale of any
such Project Equipment, the Corporation shall deposit the sale proceeds in the Revenue
Fund, (2) that in the case of a trade-in of any such Project Equipment for items not to be
utilized as a part of the Project, the Corporation shall account for the credit received by it
in the trade-in by depositing an equivalent amount in the Revenue Fund, and (3) that in
the case of any other disposition of such Project Equipment, the Corporation shall deposit
in the Revenue Fund, an amount equal to the then current market value of the removed
items as reasonably determined by the Authorized Representative of the Corporation. The
Trustee will cooperate with the Corporation at the Corporation's expense in securing a
release of the property to be removed if required under this Indenture and in securing
such bills of sale or other documents as may be required to facilitate the removal and
disposition.
(c) The Corporation shall promptly report to the Trustee removal of
any Project Equipment pursuant to subsections (a) or (b) above, and amounts required to
be accounted for by the Corporation, if any, shall promptly be paid to the Trustee for
deposit in the Revenue Fund after any substitution, sale, trade-in or other disposition;
provided that no certificate need be given or payment made for the removal and
disposition of any individual item of Project Equipment having a then current market
value of less than $250,000, as determined by the Corporation pursuant to subsection (a)
of this Section provided that the market value for any such uncertificated dispositions
shall not exceed $500,000 in any Fiscal Year. When required pursuant to this subsection
(c), Corporation shall certify to the Trustee the items of Project Equipment removed, the
items of property substituted therefor, if any, and the amount, if any, required to be paid

shall be accompanied by (i) the financing statement with respect to such substitute items
of property and (ii) a certificate of the Authorized Representative of the Corporation
stating that all steps requisite to perfection of the security interests of the Trustee in and
to such substitute items of Corporation property under this Indenture have been duly
taken. The Corporation will execute all instruments advisable in the Opinion of Counsel
for perfection of the respective security interests as aforesaid.
(d) Any amounts paid by the Corporation to the Trustee for deposit in
the Revenue Fund pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.16 shall be deposited by
DMWEST#16808481 v7 59
the Trustee in the Revenue Fund and shall be used on the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date on which Bonds mature or are subject to mandatory sinking fund
redemption toward the payment of the principal of the Bonds and payable, or subject to
mandatory sinking fund redemption, on such Interest Payment Date.
Section 5.17. Installation of Other Equipment
Nothing in this Indenture shall prevent the Corporation, after delivery of this
Indenture, from purchasing items to be installed pursuant to this Section 5.17 under a conditional

balance in the Operations and Maintenance Reserve Account to the extent required. In the event
that in any Fiscal Year Operating and Maintenance Expenses are less than the amount paid to the
Corporation under Section 4.05(a) hereof for such Fiscal Year, such excess payments shall be
applied by the Corporation against the first draws for Operating and Maintenance Expenses
made in the next Fiscal Year.
(b) The Corporation shall keep proper books of records and account in which

fund revenue, expenditure and transfers and a statement of cash flows with respect to the
Project for such Fiscal Year, showing in each case in comparative form the figures for the
preceding Fiscal Year, which shall be prepared on a GAAP basis;

purpose of determining whether or not the Corporation has complied with all of the
terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture and the Corporation has kept,
observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant, provision and condition of
this Indenture on its part to be performed and is not in default in the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants, provisions or conditions hereof, or if the
Corporation shall be in default such certificate shall specify all such defaults and the
nature thereof; and
(iv) such additional information as the Trustee may reasonably request
concerning the Corporation or the Project.
Section 5.19. Tax Covenants
The Corporation covenants with the owners of the Tax-Exempt Bonds that,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any other instrument, it will make no
investment or other use of the proceeds of the Tax-Exempt Bonds which would cause such
Bonds to be arbitrage bonds under Section 148 of the Code, and the regulations thereunder, and
it further covenants that it will comply with the requirements of such Section and regulations.
The foregoing covenants shall extend throughout the term of the Tax-Exempt Bonds,to all funds
created under this Indenture and all moneys on deposit to the credit of any such fund, and to any
other amounts which are Tax-Exempt Bond proceeds for purposes of Section 148 of the Code,
and the regulations thereunder.
The Corporation will determine the amount of the required arbitrage rebate, if
any, payable to the United States government under Section 148(0 of the Code and will make
any required payments beginning not later than 30 days after the end of the fifth Bond Year of
the Tax-Exempt Bonds, regardless of whether there are any remaining proceeds or other funds
attributable to the Tax-Exempt Bonds that are available for the purpose. The Corporation will not
permit the amount of gross proceeds invested in any bond year at a yield materially higher than
the Tax-Exempt Bond yield to exceed the limits of Section 148 of the Code.
The Corporation shall not use or direct the use of the proceeds of the Tax-Exempt
Bonds in any way, or take or omit to take any other action, which would cause the interest on
any Bonds to become subject to federal income tax under the Code, shall not use any Tax-
Exempt Bond proceeds to provide land or facilities prohibited under Sections 147 of the Code,
DMWEST#16808481 v7 61
and shall use 95 percent of the net proceeds of the Tax-Exempt Bonds for expenditures which are
chargeable to the capital account (or would be so chargeable with a proper election) of facilities
constituting qualified airport facilities for purposes of the Code, of a size and character
commensurate with the size and character of the Airport and available on a regular basis for
general public use, so that interest on such Bonds will not be included in gross income under the
Code.
The covenants contained in this Section shall remain in full force and effect until
the date on which all obligations of the Corporation in fulfilling such covenants under the Code
and State law have been met,notwithstanding the payment in full or defeasance of the Bonds.
Section 5.20. Further Assurances; Deposit of Payments
Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Indenture, the Corporation shall
not enter into any contract or take any action by which the rights of the Trustee or the
Bondholders may be impaired and shall, from time to time, execute and deliver such further
instruments and take such further action as may be required to carry out the purposes of this
Indenture, the Project Agreements, the Ground Lease, and the Deed of Trust (until the Deed of
Trust Termination Date), including, without limitation, the assignment of any Terminal
Agreements in accordance with Granting Clause Third,hereof.
Section 5.21. Competing Facilities; Other Actions
The Corporation shall not acquire, construct or operate any property not located at
the Airport or use any of the Project Revenues for such purpose. Unless compliance with this
covenant in a particular situation would violate federal or State laws (including anti-trust laws),
the Corporation shall neither construct or operate, nor enter into any agreement permitting or
otherwise facilitating the construction or operation of, other facilities competing with the
operation of the Project, nor take any other action in a manner that would materially and
adversely affect the Corporation's ability to comply with the requirements of Section 5.03
hereof; but nothing herein prevents the Corporation from taking any such actions if adequate
provision has been made for the payment of all Debt Service on all Outstanding Bonds or if such
action, in the written opinion of the Airport Consultant, will not materially and adversely affect
the Corporation's ability to comply with the requirements of Section 5.03 hereof; provided that
no acquisition, construction or operation of, additions to, or modifications or expansions of, the
facilities comprising the Project, owned by the Corporation and pledged hereunder, shall be
regarded as competing facilities or other action for purposes of this Section 5.21.

shall continue for a period of 60 days after written notice specifying such default and requiring
the same to be remedied shall have been given to the Corporation by the Trustee; or
(e) Prior to the Deed of Trust Termination Date, if an "Event of Default" as
defined in the Deed of Trust occurs and is continuing.
DMWEST#16808481 v7 69
Any Event of Default described in this Section 10.01(d) or (e) may be waived by
the Trustee if the Corporation is proceeding with due diligence to cure such default and the
Corporation is not otherwise in default under(a), (b) or(c) of this Section.
Section 10.02. Acceleration and Annulment Thereof
Subject to Section 10.06, if any Event of Default occurs, the Trustee shall, subject
to the rights of the County set forth in this Section 10.02, by notice in writing to the Corporation
declare the principal of all Bonds then Outstanding to be immediately due and payable; and upon
such declaration the said principal, together with premium, if any, and interest accrued thereon,
shall become due and payable immediately at the place of payment provided therein, anything in
the Indenture or in said Bonds to the contrary notwithstanding.
If, after the principal of said Bonds has been so declared to be due and payable, all
arrears of interest upon the Bonds (and interest on overdue installments of interest at the rate
borne by the Bonds) are paid or caused to be paid by the Corporation, and the Corporation also
performs or causes to be performed all other things in respect to which it may have been in
default hereunder and pays or causes to be paid the reasonable charges of the Trustee and the
Bondholders, including reasonable attorney's fees, then, and in every such case, the Majority
Interest, by notice to the Corporation and to the Trustee, may annul such declaration and its
consequences and such annulment shall be binding upon the Trustee and upon all Owners of
Bonds issued hereunder; but no such annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent default
or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the
Trustee shall within five (5) days of such occurrence, provide notice to the County, and the
County shall have the option, to cure such Event of Default within ninety (90) days after receipt
of notice. Amounts advanced by the County as a result of the exercise of this option to cure
monetary defaults hereunder and reasonable, direct expenses of the County advanced to cure
non-monetary defaults hereunder shall be deemed to be Indebtedness of the Corporation to the
County, entitled to payment from the Revenue Fund pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof. Nothing
herein shall be construed to create any obligation of the County to cure any Event of Default.
Section 10.03. Legal Proceedings by Trustee
If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee in its
discretion may, and upon the written request of the Majority Interest and receipt of indemnity to
its satisfaction, shall, in its own name, or in combination with the Corporation:
A. By suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, enforce all rights
of the Bondholders, including the right to require collection of the amounts payable under
the Bonds and to require the carrying out of any other provisions of this Indenture and,
prior to the Deed of Trust Termination Date, the Deed of Trust for the benefit of the
Bondholders;
B. Bring suit upon the Bonds; and
DMWEST#16808481 v7 70
A
C. By action or suit in equity enjoin any acts or things which may be
unlawful or in violation of the rights of the Bondholders.
Section 10.04. Discontinuance of Proceedings by Trustee
If any proceeding taken by the Trustee on account of any Event of Default is
discontinued or is determined adversely to the Trustee, the Corporation, the Trustee and the
Bondholders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder as though no such
proceeding had been taken,but subject to the limitations of any such adverse determination.
Section 10.05. Bondholders May Direct Proceedings
The Majority Interest shall have the right, by an instrument or concurrent
instruments in writing delivered to the Trustee, to direct the method and place of conducting all
remedial proceedings to be taken by the Trustee hereunder provided that such directions shall not
be otherwise than in accordance with the law or the provisions of this Indenture. Without
limitation of the foregoing, any such remedial proceeding may include forbearance or non-action
on the part of the Trustee, the acceptance by the Trustee, as beneficiary under the Deed of Trust,
of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the sale of the property covered by the Deed of Trust free of the
lien thereof for an amount less than the amounts due with respect to the Bonds and the waiver of
claims or the granting of a covenant not to sue. Before taking any action hereunder requested by
Bondholders, the Trustee may require that it be furnished an indemnity bond or other indemnity
satisfactory to it for the reimbursement of all expenses to which it may be put and to protect it
against all liability, except liability which results from the negligence or willful misconduct of
the Trustee,by reason of any action so taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee.
Section 10.06. Limitations on Actions by Bondholders
No Bondholders shall have any right to pursue any remedy hereunder unless:
(a) the Trustee shall have been given written notice of an Event of
Default,
(b) the Owners of at least 25% in principal amount of the Bonds
Outstanding respecting which there has been an Event of Default shall have requested the
Trustee, in writing, to exercise the powers hereinabove granted or to pursue such remedy
in its or their name or names,
(c) the Trustee shall have been offered indemnity satisfactory to it
against costs, expenses and liabilities, such satisfaction in all respects subject to Section
10.13 hereof, and
(d) the Trustee shall have failed to comply with such request within a
reasonable time.
DMWEST#16808481 v7 71
Section 10.07. Trustee May Enforce Rights Without Possession of Bonds
All rights under the Indenture and the Bonds may be enforced by the Trustee
without the possession of any Bonds or the production thereof at the trial or other proceedings
relative thereto, and any proceedings instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its name for the
ratable benefit of the Owners of the Bonds.
Section 10.08. Delays and Omissions Not to Impair Rights
No delay or omission in respect of exercising any right or power accruing upon
any Event of Default shall impair such right or power or be a waiver of such Event of Default
and every remedy given by this Article may be exercised from time to time and as often as may
be deemed expedient.
Section 10.09. Application of Moneys in Event of Default
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Trustee shall not disburse any
moneys from any Fund or account established hereunder without the written consent of the
Majority Interest provided that the Trustee may expend moneys for Operation and Maintenance
Expenses pursuant to the Operating Budget unless directed to the contrary by the Majority
Interest. Subject to the provision that in no event will amounts deposited in (i) the Debt Service
Reserve Fund be applied other than to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds while any such
Bonds are Outstanding, (ii) the PFC Account be applied other than to pay principal on the PFC
Eligible Bonds while any such Bonds are Outstanding, and (iii) the PFC Interest Subaccount be
applied other than to pay interest on the PFC Interest Eligible Bonds while any such Bonds are
Outstanding, all moneys received by the Trustee pursuant to any right given or action taken
under the provisions of this Article X or the Deed of Trust and any other moneys held as part of
the Trust Estate shall be deposited in the Bond Fund, after payment of the cost and expenses of
the proceedings resulting in the collection of such moneys and of the expenses, liabilities, and
advances incurred, or made by the Trustee, including reasonable attorney's fees, costs and
expenses, and all other current outstanding fees and expenses of the Trustee, such moneys shall
be applied in the order set forth below:
(a) Unless the principal on all Bonds shall have become or been
declared due and payable, all such moneys shall be applied:
First: To the payment of all installments of interest then due on the Bonds with
interest on such overdue interest at the rate per annum borne by such Bonds and, if the amount
available shall not be sufficient to pay in full any particular installment together with such
interest, then to the ratable payment of the amounts due on such installment;
Second: To the payment of the unpaid principal of any of the Bonds (other than
Bonds called for redemption for the payment of which moneys are held pursuant to the
provisions of the Indenture), with interest on such Bonds at the rate per annum borne by such
Bonds from the respective dates upon which they become due and, if the amounts available shall
not be sufficient to pay in full the Bonds due on any particular date, together with such interest,
then to the ratable payment of the amounts due on such date;
DMWEST#16808481 v7 72
Third: To the payment to the County of all Indebtedness to the County; and
Fourth: To the payment of Subordinate Bonds.
(b) If the principal of all the Bonds shall have become or been
declared due and payable, all such moneys shall be applied(i) first, to the payment of the
principal, premium, if any, and interest then due and unpaid upon the Bonds with interest
on such overdue amounts at the rate of interest borne thereby, without preference or
priority as between principal,premium or interest on such Bonds,ratably according to the
amounts due respectively for principal, premium and interest to the Persons entitled
thereto, (ii) second, to payments of Indebtedness due the County arising hereunder, and
(iii)third to the payment of any Subordinate Bonds.
(c) If the principal on all Bonds shall have been declared due and
payable, and if such declaration shall thereafter have been rescinded under this Article
then, subject to paragraph (b) of this Section in the event that the principal of all the
Bonds shall later become or be declared due and payable, the moneys shall be applied in
accordance with paragraph(a) of this Section.
Whenever moneys are to be applied pursuant to this Section, the Trustee shall fix
the date (which shall be the earliest practical date, in the sole discretion of the Trustee, for which
the requisite notice can be given)upon which such application is to be made and upon such date
interest on the amounts of principal to be paid on such dates shall cease to accrue. The Trustee
shall give such notice as it may deem appropriate of the deposit with it of any such moneys and
of the fixing of any such date.
Section 10.10. Trustee and Bondholders Entitled to All Remedies; Remedies Not Exclusive
It is the purpose of this Article to provide to the Trustee and the Bondholders all
rights and remedies as may be lawfully granted under State law; but should any remedy herein
granted be held unlawful, the Trustee and the Bondholders shall nevertheless be entitled to every
remedy permitted under State law. It is further intended that, insofar as lawfully possible, the
provisions of this Article shall apply to and be binding upon any trustee or receiver appointed
under State law.

remedies, and each remedy is in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.

business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, shall fail to appoint a successor

under this Indenture, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
Section 11.17. Appointment of Co-Trustee
It is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any
jurisdiction (including particularly the laws of the State of Colorado) denying or restricting the
right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as Trustee in such jurisdiction.
It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Indenture, and in particular in case of the
enforcement of any such document in default, or in case the Trustee deems that by reason of any
present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers,rights or remedies
herein granted to the Trustee or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted, or take any
other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary
that the Trustee appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate or Co-Trustee. The
following provisions of this Section are adopted to these ends.
The Trustee may appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate or
Co-Trustee, in which event such and every remedy, power,right, claim, demand, cause of action,
indemnity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be exercised
by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in
such separate or Co-Trustee but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate or Co-
Trustee to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant and obligation
necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or Co-Trustee shall run to and be enforceable
by either of them.
Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from the Corporation be
required by the separate or Co-Trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly
vesting in and confirming to him or it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and
obligations, any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall, on request, be
executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Corporation. In case any separate or Co-Trustee,or
a successor to either, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates,
properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such separate or Co-Trustee, so far as
DMWEST#16808481 v7 78
permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercisable by the Trustee until the appointment of a new
Trustee or successor to such separate or Co-Trustee.
Section 11.18. Intervention by Trustee
In any judicial proceeding to which the Corporation is a party and which in the
opinion of the Trustee and its Counsel has a substantial bearing on the interests of Owners of the
Bonds, the Trustee may intervene on behalf of Bondholders and shall do so if requested in
writing by the Owners of at least 25% in principal amount of Bonds then Outstanding and
furnished indemnity. The rights and obligations of the Trustee under this Section are subject to
the approval of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 11.19. Recording and Filing
The Trustee covenants that it will cause all financing statements related to this
Indenture and the Deed of Trust (except, in each case, the initial financing statements) and all
supplements thereto, and such other security agreements, financing statements and all
supplements thereto and other instruments as may be required or recommended from time to
time by Bond Counsel to be kept, to be recorded and filed in such manner and in such places as
may from time to time be required by law in order to preserve and protect fully the security of
the Bondholders and the rights of the Trustee hereunder. The Trustee, at the direction of the
Corporation or Bond Counsel, shall take or cause to be taken any and all other action deemed
necessary by the Corporation or Bond Counsel to perfect the security interest created by this
Indenture or the Deed of Trust, all at the expense of the Corporation. Without limiting the
foregoing,until the Deed of Trust Termination Date the Trustee shall file continuation statements
with respect to each UCC financing statement relating to the Deed of Trust filed at the time of
the issuance of each series Bonds. In addition, unless the Trustee shall have been notified in
writing by the Corporation or Bond Counsel that any such initial filing or description of
collateral contained therein was or has become defective or is no longer adequate, due to place of
filing, collateral description, or any other appropriate reason, to protect fully the security of the
Bondholders and the rights of the Trustee thereunder, the Trustee shall be fully protected in (a)
relying on such initial filing and description in filing any financing or continuation statements or
modifications thereto pursuant to this section, and (b) filing any continuation statements in the
same filing offices as the initial filings were made. The Corporation shall be responsible for the
customary fees charged by the Trustee for the preparation and filing of continuation statements
and for the reasonable costs incurred by the Trustee in the preparation and filing of all
continuation statements hereunder.
Section 11.19.Privileges and Immunities of Paying Agent and Registrar
The Paying Agents and the Registrar shall, in the exercise of their duties
hereunder, be afforded the same rights, discretions, privileges and immunities as the Trustee in
the exercise of such duties.
Section 11.20.Expenditure of Trustee Funds
No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own
funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder,
DMWEST#16808481 v7 79
or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. If it shall have reasonable grounds for believing
that repayment of advanced funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is
reasonably assured to it, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, expend its own funds in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond
or surety in respect to the execution of its trusts and powers hereunder or otherwise.
ARTICLE XII.
ACTS OF BONDHOLDERS: EVIDENCE OF OWNERSHIP OF BONDS

person or by agent appointed in writing. The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any
such instrument may be proved by acknowledgment before a notary public or other officer
empowered to take acknowledgments of deeds or by an affidavit of a witness to such execution.
Where such execution is by an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership, on behalf of
such corporation or partnership, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof
of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the
authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the
Trustee deems sufficient. The ownership of Bonds shall be proved by the Bond Register. Any

ARTICLE XIV.
DEFEASANCE
Section 14.01. Defeasance
(a) When the principal or redemption price of, and premium, if any, and
interest on, all Bonds issued hereunder, and all other amounts due under this Indenture have been
paid, or provision has been made for payment of the same, together with all other sums payable
hereunder by the Corporation, the Trustee's right, title and interest in this Indenture and the
moneys payable hereunder shall thereupon cease and the Trustee, on demand of the Corporation,
shall release this Indenture in respect thereto and shall execute such documents to evidence such
release as may be reasonably required by the Corporation and shall turn over to the Corporation
or its assigns all balances then held by it hereunder not required for the payment of the Bonds
and such other sums. If such payment or provision therefor has been made with respect to all the
Bonds of any one series, the interest of the Trustee shall cease in respect of such series, and the
Trustee shall take similar action for the release of this Indenture with respect to such series.
(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,provision for the payment
of Bonds shall be deemed to have been made when the Trustee holds in trust and irrevocably sets
aside exclusively for such payment, any combination of (i) moneys sufficient to make such
DMWEST#16808481 v7 82
payment, (ii) Governmental Obligations maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts
and at such times as will provide sufficient moneys (without consideration of any reinvestment
thereof) to make such payment, and which Governmental Obligations are not subject to
prepayment, redemption or call prior to their stated maturity, or (iii) combination of(i) and (ii);
provided, however, that prior to the release of this Indenture with respect to such Bonds, the
Trustee shall also have received(A) if the provision for the payment of the Bonds is made under
clauses (ii) or (iii) of this subsection (b), a report of an Accountant that the moneys and
Governmental Obligations set aside exclusively for such payment are sufficient to meet all
payments of principal, interest or redemption price on the Bonds and (B) an opinion of Bond
Counsel that such deposit will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of the
interest on any of the Tax-Exempt Bonds.
No Bonds in respect of which a deposit under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above has
been made shall be deemed paid within the meaning of this Article unless the Trustee is satisfied
that the amounts deposited are sufficient to make all payments that might become due on the
Bonds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no delivery to the Trustee under this subsection (b) shall
be deemed a payment of any Bonds which are to be redeemed prior to their stated maturity until
such Bonds shall have been irrevocably called or designated for redemption on a date thereafter
on which such Bonds may be redeemed in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and,
in the event such Bonds are not to be redeemed within the next 60 days, the prior notice of such
redemption shall have been given in accordance with Article IX or the Corporation shall have
given the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, irrevocable instructions to give, in the
manner and at the times prescribed by Article IX, notice of redemption. Neither the obligations
nor moneys deposited with the Trustee pursuant to this Section shall be withdrawn or used for
any purpose other than, and shall be segregated and held in trust for,the payment of the principal
of, redemption price of and interest on the Bonds with respect to which such deposit has been
made.
(c) Anything in Article XIII to the contrary notwithstanding, if moneys or
Governmental Obligations have been deposited or set aside with the Trustee pursuant to this
Article for the payment of the principal, the redemption price of the Bonds and the interest
thereon and the principal, or redemption price of such Bond and the interest thereon shall not
have in fact been actually paid in full, no amendment to the provisions of this Article shall be
made without the consent of the Owner of each of the Bonds affected thereby.
Section 14.02. County's Rights
(a) The Corporation covenants and agrees that all activities of the Corporation
shall be undertaken for the benefit of the County. Upon termination of this Indenture,the County
shall be entitled to acquire title to the Project without cost.
(b) In furtherance of the Project Agreements, the County is hereby granted the
right to obtain, at any time, fee title and exclusive possession of property (including the Project)
financed by obligations of the Corporation (including the Bonds) free from liens and
encumbrances created by the Corporation related to the Bonds (but subject to other Permitted
Encumbrances), and any additions to such property by (1) placing into escrow an amount that
will be sufficient to defease such Bonds and other obligations, and (2) paying reasonable costs
DMWEST#16808481 v7 83
incident to the defeasance, each as provided in Section 14.01 hereof. The County, at any time
before it defeases such obligations, shall not agree or otherwise be obligated to convey any
interest in such property to any person (including the United States of America or its agencies or
instrumentalities) for any period extending beyond or beginning after the County defeases such
obligations. In addition, the County shall not agree or otherwise be obligated to convey a fee
interest in such property to any person who was a user thereof, (or a related person) before the
defeasance within ninety(90) days after the County defeases such obligations.
(c) If the County exercises its option under subsection (b) hereof, the
Corporation shall immediately cancel all encumbrances on such property, including all leases
and management agreements (subject to Permitted Encumbrances as aforesaid). Any lease,
management contract, or similar encumbrance on such property will be considered immediately
cancelled if the lessee, management company, or other user vacates such property within a
reasonable time, not to exceed ninety (90) days, after the date the County exercises its rights
under Section(b) above.
(d) In addition to the foregoing, if pursuant to Article X hereof, the Trustee
declares the principal of any Bonds then Outstanding to be due and payable and any foreclosure
proceeding or other action is commenced under this Indenture or, prior to the Deed of Trust
Termination Date, the Deed of Trust, which could lead to the sale or other disposition of the
property pledged thereunder, the County is hereby granted an exclusive option to purchase all
such property (including the Project) for the amount of the outstanding indebtedness of the
Corporation and accrued interest to the date of default. The Trustee shall provide notice to the
County of the commencement of any such action within ten(10) days of the occurrence thereof.
The County shall have ninety (90) days from the date it is notified by the Trustee of such action
in which to both exercise the option (which shall be exercised by giving written notice of such
exercise to the Trustee and the Corporation) and purchase the property.
(e) In the event the County exercises its options under subsection (b) or (d)
hereof, the County shall receive a credit towards its defeasance or purchase costs in the amount
of any fund or account balances held under this Indenture with the exception of(1) the Excess
Investment Earnings Fund, (2) an amount representing Operation and Maintenance Expenses
required by the Corporation's current operating budget through the date of defeasance or
purchase, and (3) any amount needed to pay additional interest on the Bonds or expenses in
connection with such defeasance under Section 14.01 of this Indenture.
(0 Unencumbered fee title (subject to certain Permitted Encumbrances as
aforesaid) to the Project and any additions thereto and exclusive possession and use thereof will
vest in the County without demand or further action on its part when all obligations issued under
the Indenture (including the Bonds) are discharged. For purposes of this subsection (fj, such
obligations will be discharged when(1) cash is available at the place of payment on the date that
the obligations are due (whether at maturity or upon call for redemption) and (2) interest ceases
to accrue on the obligations. All leases, management contracts and similar encumbrances on the
Project shall terminate upon discharge of said obligations. Encumbrances that do not
significantly interfere with the enjoyment of such property, such as most easements granted to
utility companies, are not considered encumbrances for purposes of this Section.

Bonds") of the Corporation designated as "Airport Terminal Project Revenue
[Refunding/Improvement] Bonds" issued and to be issued in several series (collectively, the
"Bonds") under, and all equally and ratably secured by an Amended and Restated Trust Indenture

herein shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Indenture.

of, or premium, if any, or interest on, this Bond, or for any claim based hereon or on the
Indenture, against any member, officer, agent or employee, past, present or future, of the
Corporation, the County or of any successor body, as such, either directly or through the
Corporation, the County or any such successor body, under any constitutional provision,
statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable
proceeding or otherwise.
The Bonds are entitled to the protection of the Indenture,to which reference is made
for a description of the security pledged for payment of the Bonds; rights of the owners of the
Bonds; the rights and obligations of the Corporation; the rights, duties and obligations of the
Trustee; the provisions relating to amendments to and modifications of the Indenture; and the terms
and conditions upon which additional Bonds or other indebtedness may be issued thereunder. Such
additional Bonds or other indebtedness may be issued by the Corporation to fmance additional
DMWEST#16808481 v7 A-4
facilities under the Indenture and to refund all or any part of the Bonds. The owner of this Bond
shall have no right to enforce the provisions of the Indenture,or institute action to enforce the
covenants thereof or rights or remedies thereunder except as provided in the Indenture. In
the event of any conflict between this Bond and the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture
shall govern.
A security interest and lien on the Project financed by the proceeds of the Bonds has
been created and granted by the Corporation pursuant to an Amended and Restated Deed of Trust,
Security Agreement and Financing Statement dated as of September 1, 2017, from the Corporation
to the Public Trustee of Eagle County, Colorado for the benefit of the Trustee (the "Deed of
Trust"). This Bond is an obligation of the Corporation secured by (a)a pledge of the Funds and
Project Revenues (as defined in and with the exceptions provided in the Indenture) and, with the
exceptions provided in the Indenture, all trust accounts created under the Indenture,and(b)until the
Deed of Trust Termination Date,the lien and security interest on the Project, in each case subject to
the provisions of the Deed of Trust.
Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for an additional description of the nature
and extent of the security for the Bonds, the accounts and revenues pledged to the payment thereof,
the rights and remedies of the registered owners of the Bonds, the manner in which the Indenture
may be amended, and the other terms and conditions upon which the Bonds are issued, copies of
which are on file for public inspection at the office of the Corporation's Secretary.
THIS BOND IS SUBJECT TO REDEMPTION PRIOR TO MATURITY AS
PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE.
The Bonds shall be redeemed only in integral multiples of$5,000. In case a Bond
is of a denomination larger than the minimum denomination of$5,000, a portion of such Bond
may be redeemed, but only in the principal amount of$5,000 or any integral multiple thereof,
except for the final remaining maturity amount of the Bonds of any series, which may be in an
amount less than$5,000.
When required to redeem Bonds under any provision of the Indenture, the Trustee
shall cause notice of the redemption to be given by first-class mail,postage prepaid, mailed to all
Owners of Bonds to be redeemed at their registered address not more than 60 days nor less than
30 days prior to the redemption date in the manner set forth in the Indenture. All Bonds so called
for redemption will cease to bear interest after the specified redemption date, provided funds for
their redemption are on deposit at the place of payment at that time. If at the time of mailing of
notice of an optional redemption there shall not have been deposited with the Trustee moneys
sufficient to redeem all the Bonds called for redemption, such notice may state that it is
conditional, that is, subject to the deposit of the redemption moneys with the Trustee on the
scheduled redemption date, and such notice shall be of no effect unless such moneys are so
deposited.
Neither the Corporation nor any Bond Registrar on behalf of the Corporation shall
be required (i) to issue, transfer or exchange any Bond during a period beginning at the opening
of business 15 days before the day of mailing of a notice of redemption of Bonds selected for
DMWEST#16808481 v7 A-5
redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to transfer or
exchange any Bond so selected for redemption in whole or in part.
This Bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof or his duly authorized
attorney at the principal operations center of the Trustee,upon surrender of this Bond, accompanied
by a duly executed instrument of transfer in form and with guaranty of signature satisfactory to the
Trustee, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Corporation or the Trustee may prescribe, and
upon payment of a reasonable service charge and any taxes or other governmental charges incident
to such transfer. Upon any such transfer a new fully registered Bond of authorized denomination of
the same maturity and in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in
exchange for this Series 2017[A][B] Bond. The person in whose name this Bond is registered shall
be deemed the owner hereof for all purposes, and the Corporation and the Trustee shall not be
affected by any notice to the contrary.
In any case where the date of maturity of interest on or principal of the Bonds or the
date fixed for redemption of any Bonds shall be a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday or a day on
which banking institutions in the city of payment are authorized by law to close, then payment of
interest or principal or redemption price need not be made on such date but may be made on the
next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on the date of maturity or
the date fixed for redemption.

maturity of the Bonds (the "10% test") is sold to the public as the issue price of that maturity (if
different interest rates apply within a maturity, each separate CUSIP number within that maturity
will be subject to the 10% test). At or promptly after the execution of this Purchase Agreement,
the Underwriter shall report to the Corporation the price or prices at which it has sold to the
public each maturity of Bonds. If at that time the 10% test has not been satisfied as to any
maturity of the Bonds, the Underwriter agrees to promptly report to the Corporation the prices at
which it sells the unsold Bonds of that maturity to the public. That reporting obligation shall
continue, whether or not the Closing has occurred,until the 10%test has been satisfied as to the
Bonds of that maturity or until all Bonds of that maturity have been sold to the public.
The Underwriter confirms that any selling group agreement and any retail distribution
agreement relating to the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, together with the related pricing
wires, contains or will contain language obligating each dealer who is a member of the selling
group and each broker-dealer that is a party to such retail distribution agreement, as applicable,
to (A) report the prices at which it sells to the public the unsold Bonds of each maturity allotted
2
to it until it is notified by the Underwriter that either the 10% test has been satisfied as to the
Bonds of that maturity or all Bonds of that maturity have been sold to the public and(B) comply
with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, in each case if and for so long as directed by
the Underwriter. The Corporation acknowledges that, in making the representation set forth in
this subsection, the Underwriter will rely on (i) in the event a selling group has been created in
connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, the agreement of each dealer who is a
member of the selling group to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, as set
forth in a selling group agreement and the related pricing wires, and (ii) in the event that a retail
distribution agreement was employed in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the
public, the agreement of each broker-dealer that is a party to such agreement to comply with the
hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, as set forth in the retail distribution agreement and the
related pricing wires. The Corporation further acknowledges that the Underwriter shall not be
liable for the failure of any dealer who is a member of a selling group, or of any broker-dealer
that is a party to a retail distribution agreement, to comply with its corresponding agreement
regarding the hold-the-offering-price rule as applicable to the Bonds.]
[IF HOLD THE OFFERING PRICE IS USED: The Underwriter confirms that it has offered
the Bonds to the public on or before the date of this Purchase Agreement at the offering price or
prices (the "initial offering price"), or at the corresponding yield or yields, set forth in Appendix
C attached hereto, except as otherwise set forth therein. Appendix C also sets forth, as of the
date of this Purchase Contract, the maturities, if any, of the Bonds for which the 10%test has not
been satisfied and for which the Corporation and the Underwriter, agree that the restrictions set
forth in the next sentence shall apply, which will allow the Corporation to treat the initial
offering price to the public of each such maturity as of the sale date as the issue price of that
maturity(the"hold-the-offering-price rule"). So long as the hold-the-offering-price rule remains
applicable to any maturity of the Bonds, the Underwriter will neither offer nor sell unsold Bonds
of that maturity to any person at a price that is higher than the initial offering price to the public
during the period starting on the sale date and ending on the earlier of the following:
(i) the close of the fifth(5th)business day after the sale date; or
(ii)the date on which the Underwriter has sold at least 10% of that maturity of the Bonds
to the public at a price that is no higher than the initial offering price to the public.
The Underwriter shall promptly advise the Corporation when it has sold 10% of that
maturity of the Bonds to the public at a price that is no higher than the initial offering price to the
public, if that occurs prior to the close of the fifth(5th)business day after the sale date.]
The Underwriter acknowledges that sales of any Bonds to any person that is a related
party to the Underwriter shall not constitute sales to the public for purposes of this section.
Further, for purposes of this section:
(i) "public"means any person other than an underwriter or a related party,
(ii) "underwriter" means (A) any person that agrees pursuant to a written
contract with the City (or with the lead underwriter to form an underwriting syndicate) to
participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public and(B) any person that agrees pursuant to
3
a written contract directly or indirectly with a person described in clause (A) to participate in the
initial sale of the Bonds to the public (including a member of a selling group or a party to a retail
distribution agreement participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public),
(iii) a purchaser of any of the Bonds is a"related party"to an underwriter if the
underwriter and the purchaser are subject, directly or indirectly, to (i) at least 50% common
ownership of the voting power or the total value of their stock, if both entities are corporations
(including direct ownership by one corporation of another), (ii) more than 50% common
ownership of their capital interests or profits interests, if both entities are partnerships (including
direct ownership by one partnership of another), or (iii) more than 50% common ownership of
the value of the outstanding stock of the corporation or the capital interests or profit interests of
the partnership, as applicable, if one entity is a corporation and the other entity is a partnership
(including direct ownership of the applicable stock or interests by one entity of the other), and
(iv) "sale date" means the date of execution of this Purchase Contract by all
parties.
Section 1. The Official Statement. Attached hereto as Exhibit B is either a draft of
the final Official Statement or a copy of the Preliminary Official Statement dated
2017 (the "Preliminary Official Statement"), including the cover page and Appendices thereto, of
the Corporation relating to the Bonds. Such draft of the final Official Statement or copy of the
Preliminary Official Statement, as amended to reflect the changes marked or otherwise indicated
on Exhibit A hereto or otherwise agreed to by the Corporation and the Underwriter, is hereinafter
called the"Official Statement."
The Preliminary Official Statement has been prepared for use by the Underwriter in
connection with the public offering, sale and distribution of the Bonds. The Corporation hereby
represents and warrants that the Preliminary Official Statement has been deemed final by the
Corporation as of its date, except for the omission of such information which is dependent upon
the final pricing of the Bonds for completion, all as permitted to be excluded by Section (b)(1) of
Rule 15c2-12 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended("Rule 15c2-12").
In the Bond Resolution, the Corporation authorized the Official Statement to be used by
the Underwriter in connection with the public offering and the sale of the Bonds. The
Corporation consents to the use by the Underwriter prior to the date hereof of the Preliminary
Official Statement in connection with the public offering of the Bonds. The Corporation shall
provide, or cause to be provided, to the Underwriter as soon as practicable after the date of the
Corporation's execution of this Purchase Contract (but, in any event, not later than within seven
business days after the execution by the Corporation of this Purchase Contract and in sufficient
time to accompany any confirmation that requests payment from any customer) copies of the
Official Statement which is complete as of the date of its delivery to the Underwriter in such
quantity as the Underwriter shall request in order for the Underwriter to comply with Section
(b)(4) of Rule 15c2-12 and the rules of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the
"MSRB"). The Corporation hereby consents to the distribution of the Official Statement in
electronic form.
If, after the date of this Purchase Contract to and including the date the Underwriter is no
4
longer required to provide an Official Statement to potential customers who request the same
pursuant to Rule 15c2-12 (the earlier of(i) 90 days from the "end of the underwriting period" (as
defined in Rule 15c2-12) and (ii) the time when the Official Statement is available to any person
from the MSRB, but in no case less than 25 days after the "end of the underwriting period" for
the Bonds), the Corporation becomes aware of any fact or event which might or would cause the
Official Statement, as then supplemented or amended, to contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, or if it is necessary to materially amend or supplement the Official Statement to
comply with law,the Corporation will notify the Underwriter(and for the purposes of this clause
provide the Underwriter with such information as they may from time to time reasonably
request), and if, in the opinion of the Underwriter, such fact or event requires preparation and
publication of a supplement or amendment to the Official Statement, the Corporation will
forthwith prepare and furnish, at the Corporation's own expense (in a form and manner
reasonably approved by the Underwriter), a reasonable number of copies of either amendments
or supplements to the Official Statement so that the statements in the Official Statement as so
amended and supplemented will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or so that the
Official Statement will comply with law in all material respects. If such notification shall be
subsequent to the Closing (as defined in Section 3 hereof), the Corporation shall furnish such
legal opinions, Bonds, instruments and other documents as the Underwriter may deem
reasonably necessary to evidence the truth and accuracy of such supplement or amendment to the
Official Statement.
The Underwriter hereby agrees to file the Official Statement with the MSRB. Unless
otherwise notified in writing by the Underwriter, the Corporation can assume that the"end of the
underwriting period"for purposes of Rule 15c2-12 is the date of the Closing.

carriers are entitled to retain for collecting, handling and remitting such Passenger Facility
Charge revenues), together with any interest earnings thereon, and any PFC Backstop Payments
and (ii) with respect to any other series of PFC Eligible Bonds, that portion of revenue derived
from passenger facility charges imposed and used for the Project under authority from the FAA
pursuant to the PFC Rule that the Corporation,by a supplemental indenture or a resolution of the
Board of Directors, designates to be pledged to the PFC Eligible Bonds, together with any
interest earnings thereon, and any PFC Backstop Payments. Pursuant to the Project Agreements
(defined herein), the County has agreed to collect the PFC Revenue on behalf of the Corporation
and covenanted to take any action or avoid taking any action as is necessary to maintain the
existing FAA approvals of the use of the revenue from PFCs generated at the Airport for the
Project. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2017
BONDS—PFC Revenue" and "THE PROJECT—The Project Agreements." PFC Backstop
Payments are amounts that are payable by the Signatory Airlines under the Terminal Building
Leases, up to an annual maximum of$450,000, in the event the PFC Revenue is not sufficient to
pay that portion of the annual debt service on the PFC Eligible Bonds that is eligible to be paid
with PFCs (i.e. principal on the Series 2011A Bonds and principal and interest on the Series
2017A Bonds). See "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—Terminal Building Leases—PFC Backstop
Payments."
The County does not anticipate applying to the FAA to approve the imposition and use of
PFCs to finance the Terminal Expansion Project. Accordingly, PFC Revenue (including the PFC
Backstop Payments) will not be pledged to pay the Series 2017B Bonds the proceeds of which
will be used to finance the Terminal Expansion Project. The County may at any time apply to
the FAA for the authority to collect and use PFCs for any other Airport related projects which
are eligible to be financed with PFCs (such as, for example, runway improvements), but which
do not constitute part of the Project. Any PFCs which may be approved by the FAA to be
collected and used to finance eligible Airport-related projects which do not constitute part of the
Project are not pledged to pay the Bonds.
Until the Deed of Trust Termination Date (as defined below), the Series 2017 Bonds will
also be secured by a pledge of the Corporation's: (i) leasehold interest in the Project Site (as
defined herein) leased under the Ground Leases(as defined herein) and(ii) fee simple interest on
the Road Improvements Site (as defined below), in each case, pursuant to an Amended and
Restated Deed of Trust, Security Agreement and Financing Statement to be dated on or prior to
the date of issuance of the Series 2017 Bonds (the "Deed of Trust") from the Corporation for the
benefit of the Trustee. The Indenture generally defines the "Deed of Trust Termination Date"
DMWEST#16594819 v6 3
as the date on which the Deed of Trust is fully released and discharged in accordance with the
terms of the Indenture, which will be no earlier than the date on which the Series 2011A Bonds
are paid in full (either upon final maturity, prior redemption, or otherwise) and are no longer
Outstanding pursuant to the terms of the Indenture. The Series 2011A Bonds mature on May 1,
2027, but are subject to optional redemption on any date on or after May 1, 2021. See "Project"
below and "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2017 BONDS—
Deed of Trust."
The Indenture imposes certain restrictions on the actions of the Corporation for the
benefit of all owners of the Series 2017 Bonds including, among other things, restrictions on
liens on the Project (except for Permitted Encumbrances), restrictions on the incurrence of
additional indebtedness and provisions governing the maintenance and management of the
Project. In the Project Agreements, described below, the County has covenanted to accept, and
the Corporation has covenanted to transfer to the County, title to the Project after all principal
and interest coming due on the Bonds has been paid or provision for payment therefor has been
made. See"THE PROJECT—The Project Agreements."
THE SERIES 2017 BONDS SHALL NOT BE A DEBT OR FINANCIAL
OBLIGATION OF THE COUNTY, THE STATE OF COLORADO (THE "STATE") OR
ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF WITHIN THE MEANING OF ANY
PROVISION OR LIMITATION OF THE CONSTITUTION OR STATUTES OF THE
STATE, AND SHALL NEVER CONSTITUTE NOR GIVE RISE TO A PECUNIARY
LIABILITY OF THE COUNTY, THE STATE OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION
THEREOF OR A CHARGE AGAINST THEIR GENERAL CREDIT OR TAXING
POWERS. THE CORPORATION HAS NO TAXING POWER.
Outstanding Parity Bonds
The Corporation previously issued $7,250,000 in aggregate principal amount of its
Airport Terminal Project Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2011A (the "Series 2011A Bonds"),
currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of$5,135,000. The Series 2011A Bonds
are secured by the Trust Estate on parity with the Series 2017 Bonds, subject to certain
limitations set forth in the Indenture and except that the PFC Revenue are not pledged to pay the
Series 2017B Bonds. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES
2017 BONDS" and "OUTSTANDING OBLIGATIONS AND DEBT SERVICE SCHEDULE."
The Corporation may issue Additional Bonds at any time upon compliance with certain
requirements of the Indenture. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE
SERIES 2017 BONDS—Additional Bonds."
Project
Since 1996, the Corporation has issued bonds in order to finance costs incurred in
connection with the acquisition, construction and improvement of Eagle County Regional
Airport Terminal Building (the "Terminal Building") and related parking and other
improvements (collectively, the "Terminal Building Project") located at the Eagle County
Regional Airport (the "Airport"). The real property on which the Terminal Building Project is
located (the "Terminal Building Site") is owned by the County and is located within the
DMWEST#16594819 v6 4
boundaries of the Airport. The Terminal Building Site has been leased by the County to the
Corporation pursuant to a Second Restated Ground Lease effective June 1, 1996,as amended and
supplemented (the "Terminal Building Ground Lease"). The Terminal Building Project is
operated by the Corporation pursuant to a Project Agreement dated as of June 1, 1996, as
amended and supplemented(the"Terminal Building Project Agreement")between the County
and the Corporation. See"THE PROJECT—The Project Agreements."
Proceeds of the Series 2017B Bonds will be used to finance a portion of the costs relating
to the redesign, renovation and expansion of the eastern portion of the existing Terminal
Building, as well as the creation of temporary facilities to accommodate concessionaires and
other Airport services during such expansion (the "Terminal Expansion Project"). The
Terminal Expansion Project would increase the current square footage of the Terminal Building
from approximately 91,000 square feet to approximately 141,000 square feet and the expanded
eastern portion of the Terminal Building is expected to contain approximately 6 gates, passenger
holding rooms, restrooms, support services, security space and concessionaire space. The
Corporation entered into a design-build contract (the "DB Contract") with Hensel Phelps
Construction Co. as the design-builder of the Terminal Expansion Project (the "Design-
Builder"), and retained Menendez Architects pc as the consulting engineer for the Terminal
Expansion Project. See"THE PROJECT—Terminal Expansion Project."
The DB Contract provides for a guaranteed maximum price of $29,145,837 ("GMP").
The Corporation currently estimates that the Terminal Expansion Project will cost approximately
$33,000,000, including the GMP, costs to be paid directly by the Corporation and a contingency
amount. Costs of the Terminal Expansion Project not paid with proceeds of the Series 2017B
Bonds are expected to be paid from amounts on deposit in the Capital Fund (other than the
Minimum Capital Fund Balance). As of August 15, 2017, $6,667,317 was on deposit in the
Capital Fund, including the Minimum Capital Fund Balance of $346,000. See "THE
PROJECT—The Design-Build Contract for the Terminal Expansion Project" and "APPENDIX
D—FORM OF THE INDENTURE—Capital Fund."
Proceeds of the Series 2017A Bonds will be used to currently refund the Series 2006B
Bonds that were issued to finance the costs of a de-icing facility located within the boundaries of
the Airport, certain road improvements to serve the Airport and certain improvements to the
Terminal Building. The County and the Corporation entered into a Ground Lease dated as of
June 1, 2006, as amended (the "De-Icing Facility Ground Lease" and together with the
Terminal Building Ground Lease, the "Ground Leases"), pursuant to which the County leased
to the Corporation the real property on which the de-icing facility is located (the "De-Icing
Facility Site" and collectively with the Terminal Building Site, the "Project Site") to the
Corporation. The De-Icing Facility Site and the improvements constructed thereon were
subleased by the Corporation to the County pursuant to the De-Icing Facility Sublease dated as
of June 1, 2006, as supplemented (the "De-Icing Facility Sublease"), and are operated by the
County. In addition, the Corporation used a portion of the Series 2006B Bonds to acquire
approximately 2.0-acre site (the "Road Improvement Site")which was used in connection with
the realignment and other improvements of the Airport access roads. The Corporation leased the
Road Improvement Site to the County under the Road Improvements Lease dated April 30, 2007,
as supplemented (the "Road Improvements Lease"). Pursuant to the Deed of Trust, until the
Deed of Trust Termination Date, the Corporation granted its right and title in and to the Road
DMWEST#16594819 v6 5
Improvement Site for the benefit of the Trustee as additional security for the Series 2011A
Bonds and the Series 2017 Bonds. In addition, revenues of the Corporation from the De-Icing
Facility Sublease and the Road Improvements Lease are pledged to pay the Series 2011A Bonds
and the Series 2017 Bonds, as more particularly described under"AIRPORT AGREEMENTS-
De-Icing Facility Sublease"and"—Road Improvements Lease."
In addition,the Corporation and the County entered into a 2006 Project Agreement,dated
as of June 1, 2006, as supplemented (the "De-Icing Facility/Road Improvements Project
Agreement" and collectively with the Terminal Building Project Agreement, the "Project
Agreements") between the County and the Corporation, which grants certain rights to the
County with respect to the improvements financed with the Series 2006B Bonds. See "THE
PROJECT—Project Agreements."
The projects financed with the proceeds of the Series 2006B Bonds are referred to herein
as the "2006 Project" and together with the Terminal Building Project and the Terminal
Expansion Project are collectively referred to herein as the "Project." See "THE PROJECT" for
further information on the Project and"THE AIRPORT" for further information on the Airport.
Terminal Building Leases
The Corporation has entered into leases, on substantially identical terms, with American,
United, and Delta for the use and lease of space in the Terminal Building (collectively, the
"Terminal Building Leases"). Such airlines and any other airline that enters into a lease of
space in the Terminal Building Project are referred to herein collectively as the "Signatory
Airlines" and individually as the "Signatory Airline." The Terminal Building Leases provide
for rental payments as well as PFC Backstop Payments in the event that PFCs expected to be
collected at the Airport are insufficient to pay that portion of the annual debt service on the PFC
Eligible Bonds that is eligible to be paid with the PFC Revenue (i.e. principal on the Series
2011A Bonds and principal and interest on the Series 2017A Bonds). In such event, the Total
Rent Amount due from the Signatory Airlines may be increased (proportionately based on
enplanements)to include an amount (the"PFC Backstop Payment") equal to "the deficiency in
collected PFCs necessary for payment of that portion of the total annual debt service due on the
Bonds that would have been eligible for PFC funding under the Airport's PFC application
approved by the FAA"; provided, however, that the PFC Backstop Payment collectively paid by
the Signatory Airlines may not exceed $450,000 annually. The Terminal Building Leases
generally define "Bonds" as debt of the Corporation issued to finance projects for the
construction, expansion, improvement or preservation of the Terminal Building and related
facilities and services. Because the Series 2017B Bonds are not PFC Eligible Bonds, they are
not secured by the PFC Backstop Payments.
Under the current Terminal Building Leases, at the end of each Fiscal Year the
Corporation is required to refund to the Signatory Airlines fifty percent (50%) of any net
Concession Revenues (as defined in "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—Terminal Building Leases"),
subject to a yearly maximum.
The current Terminal Building Leases with the Signatory Airlines expire on December
31, 2018, unless either the Corporation or a Signatory Airline exercises its right to terminate
DMWEST#16594819 v6 6
sooner. Any Signatory Airline that is not in default under its Terminal Building Lease may
terminate its Terminal Building Lease by notifying the Corporation in writing during the five
business days preceding April 1 or September 1 of each year, and if the Corporation is in default,
at any time upon 30 days' prior written notice. Prior to the expiration of the current Terminal
Building Leases on December 31, 2018, the Corporation intends to negotiate extensions or enter
into new leases with the Signatory Airlines. The Report of the Airport Consultant (both as
defined herein) assumes that for purposes of financial projections contained therein, the
Signatory Airlines will extend their Terminal Building Leases through the end of the projection
period with agreement provisions and rental amount requirements that are substantially similar to
the current Terminal Building Leases. See "Report of the Airport Consultant" below and
"AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—Terminal Building Leases" for a more detailed discussion of the
Terminal Building Leases and "CERTAIN INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS—Terminal
Building Leases." The Corporation is not aware of any current defaults under the Terminal
Building Leases or that any Signatory Airline plans to terminate its Terminal Building Lease
prior to the expiration of its current term.

THE SERIES 2017 BONDS
General
The Series 2017 Bonds will bear interest at the respective rates per annum and mature in
the amounts and at the times set forth on the inside cover page of this Official Statement.
Interest on the Series 2017 Bonds will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-
day months. The Series 2017 Bonds will be issued only in fully-registered form in
denominations of$5,000 and integral multiples thereof(the "Authorized Denominations"), and
registered initially in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company
("DTC"),which will serve as Securities Depository for the Series 2017 Bonds. See"APPENDIX
D—FORM OF THE INDENTURE."Unless the book-entry system for the Series 2017 Bonds is
discontinued, prospective purchasers will acquire beneficial ownership interests in the offered
Series 2017 Bonds, in Authorized Denominations, but will not receive Series 2017 Bond
certificates representing such ownership interests.
So long as Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Series 2017 Bonds, payments of
principal and interest on the Series 2017 Bonds will be made directly to DTC by the Trustee on
behalf of the Corporation, and DTC will, in turn, remit such payments to DTC Participants (as

Bonds. Disbursement of such payments to DTC Participants is the responsibility of DTC and
DMWEST#16594819 v6 9
disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners is the responsibility of DTC's Direct
Participants (as defined in Appendix G) and Indirect Participants, as more fully described in
"APPENDIX G—BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM."
Each Series 2017 Bond bears interest payable on May 1 and November 1 in each year,
commencing November 1, 2017. Each Series 2017 Bond will be dated as of the date of its
authentication, and bear interest from each Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid
with respect such Series 2017 Bond next preceding the date of authentication, (i) unless the date
of authentication is an Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, in which case such
Series 2017 Bond will be dated and bear interest from the date of authentication, or (ii) unless
authenticated after a Record Date, in which case from such Interest Payment Date or(iii) unless
such Series 2017 Bond is authenticated prior to the first Interest Payment Date for such Series
2017 Bond, in which case such Series 2017 Bond will bear interest from the "Original Date" of
such series as shown on the specimen Series 2017 Bond or as otherwise provided in the
Indenture. Interest accrued and unpaid on any Series 2017 Bond on the applicable due date will
bear interest at the rate on such Series 2017 Bond until paid in full.
Interest on the Series 2017 Bonds is payable in lawful money of the United States of
America by check mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, on each interest payment date to
the registered owner as of the close of the business on the fifteenth day of the calendar month
immediately preceding such interest payment date (whether or not the fifteenth day is a business
day) (the "Record Date"); provided, however, that any registered owner of$1,000,000 or more
of the principal amount of the Series 2017 Bonds may, at any time prior to a Record Date, give
to the Trustee written instructions for payment of such interest on each succeeding interest
payment date by wire transfer. The principal on the Series 2017 Bonds and premium, if any,
thereon are payable when due upon presentation thereof at the principal office of the Trustee in
lawful money of the United States of America. See "APPENDIX D— FORM OF THE

any Securities Depository, any Participant in the Book-Entry System or the Beneficial Owners
with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by the Securities Depository or any
Participant; (ii) the payment by the Securities Depository or by any Participant of any amount
due to any Beneficial Owner in respect of the principal amount (including premium) or
redemption, or interest on, any Series 2017 Bonds; (iii) the delivery of any notice by the
Securities Depository or any Participant; (iv) the selection of the Beneficial Owners to receive
payment in the event of any partial redemption of the Series 2017 Bonds; or (v) any other action

Selection of Series 2017 Bonds for Redemption. Unless otherwise provided in the
Indenture, in the event that less than all of the Outstanding Series 2017 Bonds are to be
redeemed, the Series 2017 Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by series and by lot by the
Trustee, in such manner as the Trustee shall deem fair and reasonable. The Bonds shall be
redeemed only in integral multiples of$5,000.
In case a Series 2017 Bond is of a denomination larger than the Authorized
Denomination, a portion of such Series 2017 Bond may be redeemed but only in the principal
amount of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof, except for the final remaining maturity
amount of the Series 2017 Bonds,which maybe in an amount less than$5,000.
Notice of Redemption. Notice of the call for any redemption identifying the Series 2017
Bonds to be redeemed shall be given by the Trustee by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the
DMWEST#16594819 v6 13
Owners of Series 2017 Bonds to be redeemed at their registered addresses, not more than 60 nor
less than 30 days prior to the redemption date,provided that so long as the Series 2017 Bonds are
held by DTC or any other Depository, such notice may be given by electronic means in lieu of
mailed notice. Failure to give notice in the manner prescribed in the Indenture with respect to
any Series 2017 Bond, or any defect in such notice, shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings for redemption for any Series 2017 Bond with respect to which notice was properly
given.
If at the time of mailing of notice of an optional redemption there shall not have been
deposited with the Trustee moneys sufficient to redeem all of the Series 2017 Bonds called for
redemption, such notice may state that it is conditional, that is, subject to the deposit of the
redemption moneys with the Trustee on the scheduled redemption date, and such notice shall be
of no effect unless such moneys are so deposited; provided, however, that if such conditional
notice of redemption is given with respect to the redemption of the Series 2011A Bonds, then
such notice will not have any effect unless such moneys are deposited with the Trustee not later
than the opening of business five Business Days prior to the date fixed for redemption.

SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2017 BONDS
Trust Estate and Pledge of Project Revenues
The Series 2017 Bonds are being issued under and secured by the Indenture, pursuant to
which the Corporation will grant, assign and transfer a security interest in, and pledge and set
over to the Trustee, in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Series 2017 Bonds, the Trust
Estate. The Series 2017 Bonds are to have a senior lien on and security interest in the Trust
Estate on parity with the Series 2011A Bonds (subject to the limitations provided in the
Indenture) and subject to any future Additional Bonds issued on a parity lien basis with the
Series 2017 Bonds. See"—Additional Bonds"below.
The Trust Estate includes (a) all right, title and interest of the Corporation in the Project
Revenues, (b) all funds and accounts held by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture (other than
any such amounts held in the Excess Investment Earnings Fund and the Subordinate Bond Fund
established pursuant to the Indenture), (c) all right, title and interest of the Corporation in the
Ground Leases, the Project Agreements, and the Terminal Agreements, (d) until the Deed of
Trust Termination Date, interests in real and personal property granted under the Deed of Trust,
and (e) to the extent not otherwise within the scope of (a), (b) and (c), all accounts, general
intangibles, contract rights, documents, chattel paper and instruments (all as defined in Article 9
of the Colorado Uniform Commercial Code), equipment, inventory, choses in action, goodwill,
leases, licenses, software programs, accounting and bookkeeping records related to the Project,
together with proceeds of the foregoing. Amounts held in the Excess Investment Earnings Fund
and the Subordinate Bond Fund are not part of the Trust Estate pledged to secure the Series 2017
Bonds and consequently will not be available to make payments on the Series 2017 Bonds. See
"APPENDIX D—FORM OF THE INDENTURE" for a further description of such funds and
accounts.
Project Revenues include (a) all revenues, income, receipts, proceeds and moneys
actually received by the Corporation in any period from the Terminal Building Leases, the rental
car concession and lease agreements and any other Terminal Agreements, including the Parking
Facilities Sublease, the De-Icing Facility Lease and the Road Improvements Lease or otherwise
(other than Ancillary Income and proceeds of borrowing and interest earned thereon if and to the
extent such proceeds and interest are required to be excluded by the terms of the borrowing), if
any, from rates, fees, tolls, rentals and charges or any combination thereof for the services or
privileges furnished by, with or from the use of the Project; (b) with respect to the PFC Eligible
Bonds, PFC Revenue; (c) Net Loss Proceeds; and (d) all income or other gain, if any, from any
investment of Project Revenues.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 15
Project Revenues do not include: (i) revenue of the Corporation derived from any Bond
proceeds and other moneys (including interest) required to be credited to the Construction Fund
or the Debt Service Reserve Fund; (ii) any rentals or the revenue, grants, appropriations, or gifts
derived by the Corporation directly or indirectly from the United States; (iii) except as otherwise
provided in the Indenture, any revenue derived from any Special Facilities other than ground
rentals paid to the Corporation relating to such Special Facilities and any moneys paid to the
Corporation in lieu of such ground rentals; and (iv) any moneys (including interest) in any
escrow or similar account pledged to the payment of any obligations therein specified.
For a description of certain Project Revenues see "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS" and
"FINANCIAL INFORMATION." See also "CERTAIN INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS—
Terminal Building Leases; — Parking Facilities Sublease, De-Icing Facility Sublease and Road
Improvements Lease; Annual Appropriation Risk" for a discussion of the risks associated with
the Terminal Building Leases and certain other agreements with the County and the County's
right not to appropriate rental payments thereunder.
The Indenture provides that the Corporation is required to make payments to the Trustee
in amounts sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2017
Bonds when due. Pursuant to the Indenture, all Project Revenues (other than PFC Revenue) are
to be deposited into the Revenue Fund to be established, maintained and held in trust for the
benefit of the Bondholders by the Trustee. PFC Revenue is to be deposited directly in the PFC
Account of the Bond Fund and held in trust for the benefit of the Bondholders who own the PFC
Eligible Bonds, which, after the Series 2017 Bonds are issued, will consist of the Series 2011A
Bonds and the Series 2017A Bonds. PFC Revenue are pledged to pay principal on the Series
2017A Bonds, the Series 2011A Bonds, and any other PFC Eligible Bonds and to pay interest on
the Series 2017A Bonds and other PFC Interest Eligible Bonds, as defined herein. See "PFC
Revenue—Pledge of PFC Revenue to Pay Interest on Bonds" under this caption. Following the
occurrence of the PFC Increase Date, a portion of the PFC Revenue may be released to the
County on any May 31 upon direction from the Corporation if certain conditions of the Indenture
described in "PFC Revenue–PFC Increase Date"under this caption are met. For an explanation
of the application of moneys in the Revenue Fund and the other funds and accounts established
under the Indenture, see "—Flow of Funds" below and "APPENDIX D—FORM OF THE
INDENTURE."
Terminal Building Leases and Other Terminal Agreements Revenue
Project Revenues include all revenues, fees, rents and charges received by the
Corporation under the Terminal Building Leases, the rental car concession, lease agreements and
any other Terminal Agreements, including the Parking Facilities Sublease, the De-Icing Facility
Lease and the Road Improvements Lease. The largest component of this revenue sources is the
annual rent paid by the Signatory Airlines under their Terminal Building Leases for use of the
Terminal Building. For additional information about the Terminal Building Leases and rental
amounts received under those leases as well as from other commercial airlines utilizing the
Airport, see "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—Terminal Building Leases" and "FINANCIAL
INFORMATION—Historical Financial Operations." For additional information on other
Terminal Agreements and revenues received thereunder, see "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS-
DMWEST#16594819 v6 16
Other Terminal Building Revenue; —Parking Facilities Sublease; —De-Icing Facility Sublease;
—Road Improvements Lease."
PFC Revenue
Passenger Facility Charge; Limitation on PFCs Pledged to Pay the Bonds. The PFC
Act currently allows public agencies controlling certain commercial service airports (those with
regularly scheduled service and enplaning 2,500 or more passengers annually) to charge each
enplaning passenger using the airport a $1.00, $2.00, $3.00, $4.00 or $4.50 facility charge,
referred to as a PFC. Public agencies wishing to impose and use these PFCs must apply to the
FAA for such authority and meet certain requirements indicated in the legislation and regulations
issued by the FAA. Regardless of the number of PFC applications which have been approved by
the FAA, under current law, an airport can only collect a maximum of$4.50 on each enplaning
passenger(less $0.11 administrative fee per enplanement retained by the collecting airline).
The purpose of the charge is to develop additional capital funding sources to provide for
the expansion of the national airport system. The proceeds from PFCs must be used to finance
eligible airport-related projects that preserve or enhance safety, capacity or security of the
national air transportation system, reduce or mitigate noise from an airport that is part of such
system, or furnish opportunities for enhanced competition between or among air carriers.
Since 1993, the County has submitted several applications with the FAA to impose and
use PFCs on each enplaning passenger at the Airport. The FAA approved these applications
thereby allowing the County to collect a $4.50 PFC to finance Terminal Building Project, the
2006 Project. The FAA has approved applications which, in the aggregate, authorize the County
to collect $22,869,216 of PFCs (the "PFC Authorized Amount"). As of June 30, 2017, a total
of $12,497,987 of PFCs (including interest earned on the unused balance of the total PFC
Authorization Amount) has been collected, with the remaining balance of$10,371,229. All of
the unused balance of the PFC Authorization Amount relates to the applications approved by the
FAA to impose and use PFCs to finance the costs of the Project (excluding the Terminal
Expansion Project). See"THE PROJECT." The County does not anticipate applying to the FAA
to approve the imposition and use of PFCs to finance the Terminal Expansion Project.
Accordingly, PFC Revenue will not be pledged to pay the Series 2017B Bonds. Furthermore,
the Indenture,provides that with respect to any Bonds designated by the Corporation to be PFC
Eligible Bonds in the future,the Corporation may determine the amount of revenue derived from
PFCs that will be pledged to pay such PFC Eligible Bonds, meaning that not all revenues derived
from the PFCs approved to finance the costs of the Project may be pledged.
The County may at any time apply to the FAA for the authority to collect and use PFCs
for any other Airport related projects which are eligible to be financed with PFCs (such as, for
example, runway improvements) but which do not constitute part of the Project. Any PFCs
which may be approved by the FAA to be collected and used to finance eligible Airport-related
projects which do not constitute part of the Project will not be pledged to pay the Bonds.
Authority to collect PFCs extends until May 1, 2036. However, such authorization to
collect PFCs could expire earlier if the total PFC Authorized Amount is collected prior to May 1,
2036. With current annual collections (including interest earned on the unused balance), the
DMWEST#16594819 v6 17
estimated expiration of collection authority occurs on July 1, 2037. If the amounts authorized to
be collected have not been collected by the stated expiration date of May 1, 2036, the County is
expected to request the FAA to extend the stated expiration date, however, no assurances can be
given that the authorization to collect the PFCs will be extended. See "CERTAIN
INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS—Availability of PFC Revenue."
If the PFC Increase Date occurs (as described and defined in "—Potential Release of a
Portion of the PFC Revenue After the PFC Increase Date" below), it is likely that the collection
of the PFC Revenue will accelerate, which would result in the Corporation collecting the total
remaining PFC Authorized Amount (which, as of June 30, 2017, equals approximately
$10,371,229) earlier then the currently scheduled expiration date of May 1, 2036. Furthermore,
any PFC Revenue which is not used to pay principal on the PFC Eligible Bonds and interest on
the PFC Interest Eligible Bonds and which, following the PFC Increase Date, are not directed by
the Corporation to remain on deposit in the PFC Account for a potential release to the County
pursuant to the Indenture, will remain on deposit in the PFC Account of the Bond Fund and will
be used for Special Redemption of the PFC Eligible Bonds as described under "THE SERIES
2017 BONDS–Redemption–Special Redemption."
Pledge of PFC Revenue to Pay Principal on the PFC Eligible Bonds. Under the
Indenture, PFCs imposed and used for the Project are included in the Project Revenues (with
respect to the PFC Eligible Bonds only) and are required to be credited to the PFC Account
maintained by the Trustee in the Bond Fund. The Series 2017B Bonds are not payable from PFC
Revenue because the Terminal Expansion Project has not been approved by the FAA as eligible
for payment from the PFCs and it is not currently anticipated that the County will apply to the
FAA for such approval.
Pledge of PFC Revenue to Pay Interest on PFC Interest Eligible Bonds. In January
2007, the FAA approved the County's application to collect PFCs in the amount of$5,581,125
(which, for the avoidance of doubt, is included in the PFC Authorized Amount discussed above)
and to utilize such PFCs to finance the 2006 Project, certain financing costs and interest portion
of the Series 2006B Bonds. Prior to that application, the County did not include in its PFC
applications to the FAA interest component of the bonds issued to finance eligible airport-related
projects. Accordingly, under the Indenture, because the Series 2017A Bonds are being issued to
refund the Series 2006B Bonds (and refinance the costs incurred in connection with the 2006
Project), PFC Revenue is pledged to pay interest only on the Series 2017A Bonds and such other
Bonds issued under the Indenture if the proceeds of such Bonds were used to finance a project
the interest portion of which may be paid with PFCs pursuant to an FAA approval (the "PFC
Interest Eligible Bonds").
Upon the issuance and delivery of the Series 2017 Bonds, only the Series 2017A Bonds
will constitute PFC Interest Eligible Bonds. However, the County may at any time file a new
application with the FAA requesting the ability to impose and use PFCs to pay for interest
component of PFC-eligible airport-related projects financed with the proceeds of the Bonds or
any Additional Bonds; however,the County does not currently plan to file such an application.
Potential Release of a Portion of the PFC Revenue After the PFC Increase Date. If the
Congress increases the PFC rate above the current rate of$4.50 per each enplaning passenger
DMWEST#16594819 v6 18
and the PFC Increase Date (as defined below) occurs, the Trustee will be authorized pursuant to
the Indenture to release to the County a portion of PFC Revenue in any Fiscal Year in which the
Corporation meets certain debt service coverage ratio requirements and certain other conditions
set forth in the Indenture, as described below. The Indenture defines the "PFC Increase Date"
as the date of issuance by the FAA of a Final Agency Decision with respect to all then-existing
open PFC applications (authorizing collection of PFCs and use thereof for the costs of the
Project)permitting collection of PFCs at a level higher than$4.50 per enplaning passenger.
In late July of 2017, the Senate Appropriations Committee approved the fiscal year 2018
annual appropriations bill for the U.S. Department of Transportation which is expected to be
considered sometimes in September of 2017. This bill increases the PFC rate to $8.50 per
enplaning passenger. However, the Federal Aviation Administration Reauthorization Act of
2017 (S.B. 1405) introduced in Congress earlier this year does not include such an increase.
Neither the Corporation nor the County can anticipate whether the PFC rate will be increased
pursuant to these bills or similar legislation.
Pursuant to the Indenture, after the occurrence of the PFC Increase Date, if between May
2 and May 31 of any Fiscal Year the Trustee receives from the Corporation a PFC Release
Certificate, it may release to the County a portion of the PFC Revenue on deposit in the PFC
Account on May 31 of the same Fiscal Year. "PFC Release Certificate" is defined in the
Indenture as a written certificate signed by the President of the Corporation certifying that (i) as
of the date of such certificate, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the
Indenture and,to his or her knowledge there is no event, act or occurrence which,with the giving
of notice or the lapse of time (or both), would become an Event of Default, and (ii) based on the
Corporation's Accountant's calculation made within thirty (30) days from the date of the PFC
Release Certificate, each of the Historic Debt Service Coverage Ratio and Projected Debt
Service Coverage Ratio is at least 1.50 and attaching such calculation signed by the Accountant.
"Historic Debt Service Coverage Ratio" means, as of any date of calculation, the ratio
derived by dividing (a) the Net Revenues for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, less any
Excess PFC Revenue for such year,by(b)the Debt Service due in such Fiscal Year.
"Projected Debt Service Coverage Ratio"means, as of any date of calculation, the ratio
derived by dividing (a) the aggregate Project Revenues deposited with the Trustee as of the date
of calculation and projected to be deposited with the Trustee during the remaining portion of the
then current Fiscal Year less the Operations and Maintenance Expenses actually paid by the
Trustee as of the date of calculation and budgeted to be paid during then current Fiscal Year by
(b) the Debt Service coming due in such Fiscal Year, less that portion of the Debt Service that is
permitted to be paid from the PFC Revenue in such Fiscal Year. For purposes of determining the
Project Revenues not yet deposited with the Trustee and Operations and Maintenance Expenses
not yet paid as of the date of calculation, the Indenture requires the Corporation to use its budget
for the applicable Fiscal Year adopted by its board of directors (as such budget may be revised
from time to time pursuant to the procedures established by the Corporation), provided that for
purposes of this definition, the Project Revenues, Operations and Maintenance Expenses and the
amount of the aggregate Debt Service are to be calculated in accordance with the Indenture.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 19
"Excess PFC Revenue" means, with respect to each Fiscal Year, the difference, if any,
between the amount of PFC Revenue deposited with the Trustee during such year and that
portion of Debt Service due in such year with respect to the PFC Eligible Bonds that is eligible to
be paid from the PFC Revenue. As described above, the portion of Debt Service that is eligible
to be paid from the PFC Revenue will, upon issuance of the Series 2017 Bonds, consist of the
principal on the Series 2011A Bonds and the Series 2017A Bonds and interest on the Series
2017A Bonds.
The Indenture provides that if no Series 2011A Bonds and the Series 2017A Bonds are
outstanding, the foregoing provisions relating to the release of the PFC Revenue after the PFC
Increase Date will not apply because the Corporation will be able to determine the amount of the
PFC Revenue that will be pledged to pay any Bonds which the Corporation designates in the
future as PFC Eligible Bonds.
Availability of PFC Revenue and Termination of Authority to Impose a Passenger
Facility Charge. The amount of PFC Revenue expected to be received is less than the original
principal amount of the Series 2011A Bonds and the Series 2017A Bonds. The actual amount of
PFC Revenue received each Fiscal Year will vary depending on the number of qualifying
passenger enplanements at the Airport. See Table 2 under "FINANCIAL INFORMATION—
Historical Financial Operations" for data on the PFC Revenue collected in the last five Fiscal
Years. No assurance can be given that the amount of PFC Revenue will continue at the levels
achieved in such prior Fiscal Years or at the levels assumed in the Report of the Airport
Consultant. Further, the FAA may terminate the County's authority to impose the PFC, subject
to informal and formal procedural safeguards, as described below. The County has covenanted
in the Project Agreements that the County will take any action or avoid taking any action as is
necessary in order to obtain and maintain the FAA approval of the use of PFC Revenue
generated at the Airport for the Project and to comply with all valid and applicable federal laws
and regulations pertaining thereto necessary to maintain the PFC. However, no assurance can be
given that the County's authority to impose the PFCs, nor the Corporation's use of such PFCs,
will not be terminated by Congress or the FAA, that the PFC program will not be modified or
restricted by Congress or the FAA so as to reduce PFC Revenue available to the Corporation.
Furthermore, if the PFC Increase Date occurs, it is possible that the collection of the PFC
Revenue will accelerate, which would result in the Corporation collecting the total remaining
PFC Authorized Amount earlier than the currently scheduled expiration date of May 1, 2036.
See "—Passenger Facility Charge; Limitation on PFCs Pledged to Pay the Bonds" above under
this caption.
In addition, the Signatory Airlines have agreed in the current Terminal Building Leases to
make PFC Backstop Payments in the event PFC Revenue expected to be collected at the Airport
are insufficient to pay that portion of debt service on the PFC Eligible Bonds that is eligible to be
paid with the PFCs (i.e. principal on the Series 2011A Bonds and principal and interest on the
Series 2017A Bonds). See "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—Terminal Building Leases — PFC
Backstop Payments." As of July 1, 2017, no PFC Backstop Payment had been required to be
made by the Signatory Airlines. If the Corporation enters into new Terminal Building Leases
with the Signatory Airlines, such Leases may or may not contain provisions relating to PFC
Backstop Payment.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 20
The County's authority to impose, collect and have the Corporation use the PFC Revenue
for the Project may be terminated if(i)the FAA determines that the PFC Revenue is excessive or
cannot determine that such revenue is being used for approved projects in accordance with the
FAA approval granted to the County to impose and collect PFCs or with the PFC Act, or if
project implementation does not commence within the time period specified in the PFC Act or
(ii) the County otherwise violates the PFC Act or regulations. The County's authority to impose
the PFC may also be terminated if the FAA determines the County is in violation of certain
provisions of the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990, as amended (the "Noise Act") and its
implementing regulations relating to the implementation of noise and access restrictions for
certain types of aircraft.
The FAA termination provisions provide a variety of procedural safeguards, including an
informal resolution procedure before commencement of proceedings to terminate the County's
authority to impose a PFC, which the FAA may commence only if the FAA determines that
informal resolution is not successful. In addition, termination proceedings include a period of
time to allow the County to correct any defect the FAA has identified or to attempt to work out a
compromise with the FAA that will allow the PFC revenue stream to continue uninterrupted.
The regulations under the Noise Act also contain procedural safeguards to ensure that the
County's authority to impose a PFC would not be summarily terminated. Most significantly, the
County can under any circumstance prevent termination of its PFC authority by suspending the
effectiveness of any noise or access restriction in question until the legal sufficiency of the
restriction and its impact on the County's PFC authority has been determined.
Finally, if the FAA determines that revenue derived from a PFC is excessive or is not
being used in accordance with the PFC Act, the Administrator may set off such amounts as may
be necessary to ensure compliance with the PFC Act against federal grants otherwise payable to
the County or the Corporation under the Airport and Airway Improvement Act of 1982. If any
approval in connection with the Corporation's authority to use the PFCs for the Project is
withdrawn or terminated, the FAA could terminate the County's authority to impose the PFC for
the Project. Neither the County nor the Corporation has received any notice from the FAA
raising issues relating to the County's authority to impose and collect the PFC.
Deed of Trust
Until the Deed of Trust Termination Date, the Series 2017 Bonds will also be secured, on
parity with the Series 2011A Bonds,by a pledge of the Corporation's leasehold interest pursuant
to the Deed of Trust in the Project Site leased under the Ground Leases (consisting of the
Terminal Building Ground Lease and the De-Icing Facility Ground Lease), together with all
improvements thereon, and the Corporation's right, title and interest in and to the Road
Improvement Site, together with all improvements thereon. Pursuant to the Ground Leases, the
Corporation is leasing the Project Site from the County for lease amounts determined pursuant to
formulas set forth therein. The Terminal Building Ground Lease expires on December 31, 2045
but is required to be terminated earlier in the event all Bonds issued under the Indenture to
finance Terminal Building Project and related additions, including the Terminal Expansion
Project, have been defeased. The De-Icing Facility Ground Lease expires on December 31,
2031, but is required to be terminated earlier in the event the Series 2017A Bonds have been
DMWEST#16594819 v6 21
defeased. See "THE PROJECT — The Ground Leases." The Indenture generally defines the
"Deed of Trust Termination Date" as the date on which the Deed of Trust is fully released and
discharged as evidenced by a recorded copy of an executed Request for Full Release of Deed of
Trust and Release, which may not occur earlier than the date on which the Series 2011A Bonds
are no longer Outstanding pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.
Rate Maintenance Covenant
Under the terms of the Indenture, the Corporation has covenanted at all times to fix,
revise, charge and collect rentals, rates, fees and other charges for the use of the Project in order
that in each Fiscal Year the Project Revenues (net of the Excess PFC Revenue and certain Net
Loss Proceeds)will at all times be at least sufficient to provide for:
(i) the payment of Operation and Maintenance Expenses and the aggregate Debt
Service for the Fiscal Year,plus
(ii) the larger of either:
(A) the amounts needed for making the required cash deposits in the
Fiscal Year to the credit of the Debt Service Reserve Fund, the Subordinate
Bond Fund, the Operation and Maintenance Reserve Account and to the
Capital Fund to maintain the Minimum Capital Fund Balance; or
(B) an amount not less than 30% of the aggregate Debt Service for the
Fiscal Year; provided that in calculating the amount required under this
subparagraph (ii)(B): (i) Other Available Funds may be used and taken into
account, (ii) management fees paid under any management agreement with the
Project Manager and Ground Lease payments may be excluded from the
calculation of the Operation and Maintenance Expenses, and (iii) in the event
Additional Bonds are issued to finance the purchase, acquisition, construction,
equipping, alteration or improvement of the FBO Terminal, the amount
required under this subparagraph(ii)(B)will be 20%of aggregate Debt Service
for the Fiscal Year, starting with the Fiscal Year in which such Additional
Bonds are issued.
"Debt Service" excludes, for each calculation period, amounts which are irrevocably
committed to make such payments during such period, including without limitation any amounts
in any escrow account and capitalized interest account.
"Other Available Funds" includes, for each Fiscal Year, the amounts, if any, that the
Corporation determined appropriate to transfer from the Capital Fund to the Revenue Fund;
provided that the Minimal Capital Fund Balance (which is the amount of$346,000) or portion
thereof available in the Capital Fund is to be considered as Other Available Funds without
transfer to the Revenue Fund. See"—Flow of Funds"below.
The Corporation has also covenanted that if the Project Revenues (net of the Excess PFC
Revenue and certain Net Loss Proceeds) in any Fiscal Year, together with any Other Available
Funds, are less than the amounts specified above, upon the receipt of the audit report for the
DMWEST#16594819 v6 22
Fiscal Year, it will request the Airport Consultant to make recommendations as to the revision of
the schedule of rentals, rates, fees and charges; and upon receiving such recommendations or
giving reasonable opportunity for such recommendations to be made, the Corporation, on the
basis of such recommendations and other available information and to the extent legal to do so,
will revise the schedule of rentals, rates, fees and charges for the use of the Project, as may be
necessary to produce Project Revenues as required. See Section 5.03 in"APPENDIX D—FORM
OF THE INDENTURE."
If the Corporation complies with the provisions described in the paragraph above, no
Event of Default resulting from the failure to meet the rate maintenance covenant occurs under
the Indenture, even though the Project Revenues (net of the Excess PFC Revenue and certain Net
Loss Proceeds), together with any Other Available Funds, are not actually sufficient to provide
funds in the amounts required for such Fiscal Year. All such rentals, rates, fees and other
charges for the use of the Project are required to be reasonable in relation to the cost of
providing, operating and maintaining the particular portion of the Project and the services
furnished by such portion.
See Table 2 under"FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Historical Financial Operations"for
actual debt service coverage achieved by the Corporation in Fiscal Years 2012 through 2016.
Debt Service Reserve Fund
The Indenture establishes the Debt Service Reserve Fund for the Series 2011A Bonds,the
Series 2017 Bonds and any Additional Bonds. Upon the issuance of the Series 2017 Bonds, the
aggregate Debt Service Reserve Fund Requirement for the Series 2011A Bonds and the Series
2017 Bonds will be $ * and will be satisfied by applying amounts already on
deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Fund as of the date of issuance of the Series 2017 Bonds, as
well as $ * from the proceeds of the Series 2017 Bonds. In the event any moneys in
the Debt Service Reserve Fund are transferred to pay principal of or interest on the Series 2011A
Bonds and Series 2017 Bonds by making up a deficiency in the Bond Fund pursuant to the
provisions of the Indenture, the Corporation must replenish the Debt Service Reserve Fund to the
Debt Service Reserve Fund Requirement, as described under the"—Flow of Funds"below.
The Corporation may at any time deposit a Credit Facility in the Debt Service Reserve
Fund in full or partial payment of the Debt Service Reserve Fund Requirement, payable on any
date on which moneys are required to be withdrawn from the Debt Service Reserve Fund, as
more fully described in the Indenture.
See "APPENDIX D—FORM OF THE INDENTURE" for additional information
regarding the Debt Service Reserve Fund.
Flow of Funds
The application of Project Revenues of the Corporation is governed by the Indenture. The
Trustee is required to deposit all Project Revenues and the interest earned on certain funds and
accounts established thereunder as and when received into the Revenue Fund, except that all
PFC Revenue shall be deposited directly into the PFC Account in the Bond Fund. See
"APPENDIX D—FORM OF THE INDENTURE" for provisions relating to such funds and
DMWEST#16594819 v6 23

CERTAIN INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS
The purchase and ownership of the Series 2017 Bonds involve certain investment risks
and, therefore, the Series 2017 Bonds may not be suitable for all investors. In considering the
matters set forth in this Official Statement, prospective investors should carefully review all
investment considerations set forth throughout this Official Statement, and should specifically
consider certain risks associated with the Series 2017 Bonds. There follows a discussion of some,
but not necessarily all, of the possible risk factors which should be carefully evaluated by
prospective purchasers of the Series 2017 Bonds prior to purchasing any Series 2017 Bonds.
Dependence on Levels of Airline Traffic and Activity
The Project Revenues of the Corporation are dependent primarily on the level of aviation
activity and enplaned passenger traffic at the Airport. Although enplaned passenger traffic at the
Airport did increase from 2015 to 2016, such traffic has generally been decreasing since 2012.
See "FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Airport Operations Historical Passenger Traffic and
DMWEST#16594819 v6 27
Airport Operations" and "TABLE 4—Eagle County Regional Airport Historical Scheduled
Airline Passenger Traffic 2012-2017." Future levels of aviation activity and enplaned passenger
traffic at the Airport will be dependent upon many local, regional, national and international
factors including: tourism in and around the County, routes and airfares offered at competing
airports within a reasonable driving distance of the County, national and international economic
conditions, population and economy of the Airport service region, national and local
unemployment rate, political conditions including wars, other hostilities and acts of terrorism,
aviation security and public health concerns, the financial health of the airline industry and of
individual airlines, airline mergers, the sale of airlines, alliances and consolidations, availability
and price of aviation and other fuel, employee cost and availability and labor relations(both with
respect to the Corporation and the airline industry), capacity of the national air transportation
system and of the Airport, accidents involving commercial passenger aircraft, visa requirements
and other limitations on the ability of foreign citizens to enter the United States, currency
exchange rates, and the occurrence of pandemics and other natural and man-made disasters,
some of which are discussed in further detail hereafter in this section. See "AIRLINE
INFORMATION."
The airline industry is cyclical and subject to competition and variable demand. Traffic
volumes are responsive to economic circumstances and seasonal patterns. Other factors, such as
fuel and regulatory costs, can also have a significant impact on the industry. As a result, airline
financial performance can fluctuate dramatically from one reporting period to the next.
In addition to revenues received from airline activity and passenger traffic generated by
the Signatory Airlines, the Corporation derives a significant portion of its revenues from
concessionaires including merchandisers, car rental companies, restaurants, and others. See
"FINANCIAL INFORMATION." Past declines in Airport passenger traffic have adversely
affected, and future declines may adversely affect, commercial operations of many of such
concessionaires and car rental companies. Severe financial difficulties affecting a concessionaire
could lead to a reduction in, or failure to pay, rent due under its lease agreement with the
Corporation or could lead to the cessation of operations of such concessionaire.
Susceptibility to Recession and Other Economic Trends
Historically, airline passenger traffic nationwide has correlated closely with the condition
of the U.S. economy and levels of real disposable income. Previous recessions and periods of
stagnant economic conditions in the U.S. and Colorado contributed to reduced passenger traffic
at the Airport. Further,the 2008-2009 recession and associated high unemployment and reduced
discretionary income contributed to reduced airline travel demand at the Airport during such
period. Because the Airport primarily serves as a destination airport for recreational travelers,
traffic levels at the Airport are particularly susceptible to reduction during recessions or large-
scale downward trends in levels of discretionary income. See "—Dependence on Recreation and
Tourism; Climate Change"below.
Dependence on Recreation and Tourism
The number of enplaned passengers at the Airport is dependent in large part upon the
strength of the recreation and tourism industry in the County and surrounding areas. The Airport
DMWEST#16594819 v6 28
is not subject to the typical demand as an origin-destination airport, but rather, is primarily a
destination airport that is reliant on the demand of the winter and summer vacation traveler. The
primary recreation attractions in the County are the Vail and Beaver Creek resorts/ski areas,
located within approximately 35 miles of the Airport. Over the last two decades, summer tourism
has increased in the County due to a number of new golf courses and the increased popularity of
other summer recreational activities, such as hiking, biking, horseback riding, fly fishing and
rafting. However,most airline activity at the Airport still takes place during the ski season.
In addition, due to the reliance of the region's economy on the ski industry, changing
climate conditions could shorten the length of the ski season and therefore reduce the number of
skier visits to the region. If the number of skier visits in the region decreases in the future, then
the Project Revenues may decrease.
Financial Condition of the Airlines; Industry Consolidation
The Corporation's largest source of Project Revenues is the annual rent paid by the
Signatory Airlines under the Terminal Building Leases, which, together with rents from all
commercial airlines utilizing the Airport, represented on average 56% of the Corporation's total
operating revenue (not including the PFC Revenue) during the last five Fiscal Years. The ability
of the Corporation to continue to generate such revenues depends largely upon the financial
health of the Signatory Airlines serving the Airport and the airline industry as a whole. The
financial performance of the airline industry is subject to substantial volatility and prior to 2014,
many carriers have experienced extended periods of unprofitability. The 2008-2009 global
recession and record fuel prices in 2008, for example, led many airlines to raise fares, add new
fees and surcharges and reduce capacity and the size of their fleets, as well as personnel. These
measures, coupled with increased passenger traffic and lower fuel prices, resulted in increased
revenues and profits for the airlines in 2014 through 2016.
In addition, in the last two decades, several airlines have merged or consolidated and
others have either reorganized under applicable bankruptcy laws or ceased operations.
Additional bankruptcy filings, mergers, consolidations and other major restructuring by airlines,
including the Signatory Airlines, are possible.
No assurance can be given that any of the Signatory Airlines will continue operations at
the Airport or with respect to the Terminal Building Project during the term of their respective
Terminal Building Leases or thereafter. In the event any Signatory Airline discontinues or
reduces its operations at the Airport and use of the Terminal Building Project, its level of activity
might not be easily replaced by other carriers. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the
levels of aviation activity that will be achieved with respect to the Terminal Building Project.
The Corporation is not able to predict whether any future airline mergers, consolidations,
reorganizations or liquidations will occur. Any reduction in the levels of aviation activity at the
Terminal Building Project would adversely affect the Project Revenues. See "AIRLINE
INFORMATION," "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2017
BONDS,""FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Airport Operations."
DMWEST#16594819 v6 29
Cost,Availability and Price Volatility of Aviation Fuel
Fuel is a significant cost component of airline operations and continues to be an
important and uncertain determinant of an air carrier's operating economics. Historically,
aviation fuel prices have been particularly sensitive to worldwide political instability. Continued
or new hostilities in the Middle East or other petroleum producing regions could dramatically
impact the price and availability of aviation fuel. Economic expansion in emerging markets also
contributes to higher aviation fuel prices. While fuel prices have declined significantly in the
past few years, significant and prolonged increases in the cost of aviation fuel have had and are
likely in the future to have an adverse impact on the air transportation industry by increasing
airline operating costs and reducing airline profitability.
The Corporation is not able to predict how continued uncertainty with respect to the cost,
availability and volatility of prices of aviation fuel will impact the Airport or the Signatory
Airlines. See "—Dependence on Levels of Airline Traffic and Activity," "— Susceptibility to
Recession and Other Economic Trends," and "— Financial Condition of the Airlines; Industry
Consolidation" above.
Air Travel Security,Public Health and Natural Disasters Concerns
Concerns about the safety of airline travel and the effectiveness of security precautions,
particularly in the context of international hostilities (such as those that have occurred and are
currently occurring in the Middle East and North Africa) and terrorist attacks (such as those
occurring recently in Nice, Munich, Paris, Brussels, London, and Istanbul, among other cities)
may influence passenger travel behavior and air travel demand. Travel behavior may also be
affected by anxieties about the safety of flying, the inconveniences and delays associated with
more stringent security screening procedures, the potential exposure to severe illnesses (such as
the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome outbreak in 2003, the H1N1 influenza outbreak in 2009
and 2010, and the recent outbreak of the Zika virus in more than 50 countries and certain parts of
the United States) and natural disasters (such as volcano eruptions, earthquakes and tsunamis),
all of which could lead to the avoidance of airline travel or the use of alternate modes of
transportation. Any decrease in passenger activity at the Airport would cause a corresponding
decline in Project Revenues of the Corporation. The Corporation is unable to predict how
serious the impact of security, natural disasters, or future pandemics may become, what effect
they may have on air travel to and from the Airport, and whether any such effects will be
material.
Pilot Shortage
The airline industry is currently experiencing a nationwide pilot shortage, due to a variety
of factors which are expected to continue to negatively impact the number of pilots available to
airlines such as the Signatory Airlines in the future. In 2007, Congress amended the FAA's
authorizing legislation to increase the mandatory retirement age for pilots from age 60 to age 65.
However, even with this change, a large number of pilots in the industry are now approaching
the mandatory retirement age. Additionally, fewer people are pursuing careers as pilots, and
those who do must now meet stringent, federally-mandated flight-hour requirements before they
are permitted to work for commercial airlines. Reductions in the number of military pilots being
DMWEST#16594819 v6 30
trained by the U.S. armed forces, who historically have sought employment with commercial
airlines upon retirement from military service, have also contributed to a shortage of qualified,
entry-level pilots. Any shortage in the number of pilots available to the Signatory Airlines may
negatively impact the ability of the Signatory Airlines to continue to offer flights and conduct
operations at regional airports such as the Airport and could therefore reduce the Project
Revenues available to pay the Bonds.
Regulations and Restrictions Affecting the Airport
The Airport and the Corporation are subject to various laws, rules and regulations
adopted by the local, State and federal governments and their agencies. The Airport is highly
regulated by federal agencies including the FAA,the Transportation Security Administration(the
"TSA"), Customs and Border Protection and the U.S. Department of Health. The Corporation is
unable to predict the adoption or amendment of additional laws, rules or regulations, or their
effect on the operations or financial condition of the Airport.
Additionally, the operations of the Terminal Building and the Corporation's ability to
generate revenues are affected by a variety of contractual, statutory and regulatory restrictions
and limitations, including, without limitation, provisions in the Terminal Building Leases, the
federal acts authorizing the imposition, collection and use of PFCs, extensive federal legislation
and regulations applicable to all domestic airports. It is not possible to predict whether
restrictions or limitations on operations of the Terminal Building will be increased or imposed in
the future, whether future legislation or regulations will affect anticipated federal funding or PFC
collections for capital projects for the Terminal Building, whether additional requirements will
be funded by the federal government or require funding by the Corporation or whether such
restrictions or legislation or regulations would adversely affect Project Revenues. See
"SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2017 BONDS—PFC
Revenue," "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—Terminal Building Leases" and "FINANCIAL
INFORMATION—Federal Grants."
Availability of Federal Funding
The Airport depends on federal funding not only in connection with grants and PFC
authorizations but also because federal funding provides for TSA, air traffic control, and other
FAA staffing and facilities. The FAA currently operates under the FAA Modernization and
Reform Act of 2012 (the "2012 Reauthorization Act") and the FAA Extension, Safety, and
Security Act of 2016 (the "2016 Reauthorization Act") enacted into law on July 15, 2016. The
2012 Reauthorization Act retained the federal cap on PFCs at $4.50 and authorized $3.35 billion
per year for the Airport Improvement Program (the "AIP"). The AIP provides funds to finance
capital improvements to commercial, cargo and general aviation airports. AIP grant moneys
include entitlement funds that are appropriated annually based on enplaned passengers as well as
discretionary funds that are available at the discretion of the FAA. The 2016 Reauthorization
Act extends the authority of the FAA and provides funding for the AIP at current levels through
September 2017. This summer, the Federal Aviation Administration Reauthorization Act of
2017 (S.B. 1405), which proposes to provide funding for the FAA and its programs (including
the AIP) through fiscal year 2021, was introduced to Congress, and is expected to be considered
prior to the September 30 expiration of the 2016 Reauthorization Act. This bill maintains the
DMWEST#16594819 v6 31
$4.50 PFC cap and proposes to increase AIP funding to $3.75 billion for each of fiscal years
2019 through 2021. Additionally, in late July of 2017, the Senate Appropriations Committee
approved the fiscal year 2018 annual appropriations bill for the U.S. Department of
Transportation which is expected to be considered sometimes in September of 2017. This bill
increases the PFC rate to $8.50 per enplaning passenger and increases AIP funding to $3.6
billion.
Since 2012, approximately $35,000,000 in federal AIP grants has been received by the
County to finance improvements at the Airport. There is no guarantee that funding at such levels
will be available to the County in the future. See "FINANCIAL INFORMATION — Federal
Grants."
Regardless of legislation that may be enacted in the future, FAA AIP expenditures remain
subject to congressional appropriation and no assurance can be given that the FAA will receive
spending authority. In addition, the AIP could be affected by the automatic across-the-board
spending cuts,known as sequestration. The Corporation is unable to predict the level of available
AIP funding the County may receive. If there is a reduction in the amount of AIP grants awarded
to the Airport, such reduction could increase by a corresponding amount the capital expenditures
that the Corporation and the Airport would need to fund from other sources and/or extend the
timing for completion of certain projects.
Terminal Building Leases
The obligations of the Signatory Airlines under their respective Terminal Building Leases
terminate on December 31, 2018, unless a Signatory Airline or the Corporation terminates it
sooner. Any Signatory Airline (unless such Signatory Airline is in default under its Terminal
Building Lease) may terminate its Terminal Building Lease by giving a written notice that is
received by the Corporation during the five business days preceding April 1 or September 1 of
each year during the term of the Terminal Building Lease. See "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—
Terminal Building Leases—Term." While the Corporation is currently not aware of any
Signatory Airline's plans to terminate its Terminal Building Lease, no assurance can be given
that any of the Signatory Airlines will continue its operations at the Airport or with respect to the
Terminal Building Project during the term of its respective Terminal Building Lease or
thereafter. Any termination by a Signatory Airline of its Terminal Building Lease could
significantly impact the availability of Project Revenues to pay the Bonds, particularly if the
Corporation were unable to identify another airline to provide service to the Airport and lease
space at the Terminal Building on similar terms.
While the Corporation intends to enter into new terminal building leases with the
Signatory Airlines following the termination thereof, there can be no assurance that all Signatory
Airlines will enter into new terminal building leases or that new terminal building leases will be
entered into on terms as favorable as the terms of the current Terminal Building Leases.
Furthermore, if any Signatory Airline terminates its Terminal Building Lease prior to the end of
its term (as permitted by the Terminal Building Leases), the Corporation might not be able to
replace such Signatory Airline with another airline. If no airline enters into an agreement with
the Corporation at the time of such termination for the use and lease of all or any portion of the
Terminal Building Project or if new leases are negotiated on less favorable terms for the
DMWEST#16594819 v6 32
Corporation, the amount of Project Revenues may significantly decrease, and the ability of the
Corporation to pay for the remaining principal and interest on the Series 2017 Bonds would be
significantly impaired. See"AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—Terminal Building Leases"herein for
a description of the current Terminal Building Leases with Signatory Airlines.
Effect of Bankruptcy on Terminal Building Leases
Since December 2000, numerous airlines, including airlines which served the Airport in
the past and airlines that currently serve the Airport, have filed for bankruptcy protection. An
airline that has executed a Terminal Building Lease or other executory contract with the
Corporation and sought protection under the U.S. bankruptcy laws must assume or reject: (a) its
Terminal Building Lease within 120 days after the bankruptcy filing subject to a court-approved,
one-time 90-day extension(further extensions are subject to the consent of the lessor), and(b) its
other executory contracts with the Corporation prior to the confirmation of a plan of
reorganization. Bankruptcy courts are courts of equity, however, and as such can, and often do,
grant exceptions to such time limitations.
In the event of an assumption of any executory contract or lease, an airline would be
required to cure any pre- and post-petition monetary defaults and provide adequate assurance of
future performance under the applicable executory contract or lease. In the event of an
assumption by a debtor airline and assignment to a third party, the assurance of future
performance would have to be demonstrated by the proposed assignee.
Rejection of a Terminal Building Lease or other executory contract with the Corporation
will give rise to an unsecured claim of the Corporation for damages, the amount of which in the
case of a Terminal Building Lease or other lease is limited by the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Claims
for such damages are subject to the Corporation's duty to mitigate damages. The amount
ultimately allowed in the event of a rejection of a Terminal Building Lease or other executory
contract could be considerably less, however, than the maximum amount allowed under the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code. Certain amounts unpaid as a result of a rejection of a Terminal Building Lease
by an airline in bankruptcy can be passed on to the remaining Signatory Airlines under the
Terminal Building Lease, thereby increasing such airlines' cost per enplanement, although there
can be no assurance that such other airlines would be financially able to absorb the additional
costs. Currently, no Signatory Airlines are in bankruptcy proceedings.
Availability of PFC Revenue; PFC Backstop Payments
The amount of actual PFC Revenue received by the Corporation in the future years will
vary based upon the actual number of PFC-eligible passenger enplanements at the Airport. No
assurance can be given that any level of enplanements will be realized or that the PFC Revenue
and the schedule for receipt thereof which are assumed in the Report of the Airport Consultant
will be attained. Additionally, the FAA may terminate the County's authority to impose PFCs,
subject to informal and formal procedural safeguards, if(i) the FAA determines that the PFC
Revenue is excessive or cannot determine that such revenue is being used for approved projects
in accordance with the FAA approval granted to the County to impose and collect PFCs or with
the PFC Act, or if project implementation does not commence within the time period specified in
the PFC Act or (ii) the County otherwise violates the PFC Act or regulations. The County's
DMWEST#16594819 v6 33
authority to impose the PFC may also be terminated if the FAA determines the County is in
violation of certain provisions of the Noise Act and its implementing regulations relating to the
implementation of noise and access restrictions for certain types of aircraft. No assurance can be
given that the County's authority to impose a PFC would not be terminated by Congress or the
FAA, that the PFC program will not be modified or restricted by Congress of the FAA so as to
reduce PFC Revenue available to the County. However, see "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS" for a
description of Signatory Airlines' obligations during the remaining terms of their respective
Terminal Building Leases to make PFC Backstop Payment if the PFC Revenue expected to be
collected at the Airport are insufficient to pay that portion of the annual debt service on the PFC
Eligible Bonds that is eligible to be paid with the PFC Revenue (i.e. principal on the Series
2011A Bonds and interest and principal on the Series 2017A Bonds). There is no assurance,
however, that the Signatory Airlines will agree to extend the current Terminal Building Leases or
enter into new terminal building leases by the time the existing Leases expire or will enter into
new leases on terms that are as favorable to the Corporation as the existing Terminal Building
Leases, including the PFC Backstop Payment provision.
See also "APPENDIX A—REPORT OF THE AIRPORT CONSULTANT" and
"SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2017 BONDS—PFC
Revenue—Availability of PFC Revenue and Termination of Authority to Impose a Passenger
Facility Charge" for a discussion of situations where the County's right to impose and collect
PFCs could be terminated.
In addition, if the PFC Increase Date occurs, it is likely that the collection of the PFC
Revenue will accelerate, which would result in the Corporation collecting the total remaining
PFC Authorized Amount earlier than the currently scheduled expiration date of May 1, 2036.
Once all of the PFCs authorized to be collected and used for the Project are collected, PFCs will
no longer be available to pay the PFC Eligible Bonds unless the County applies to the FAA to
collect and use PFCs for new eligible projects relating to the Project. See "SECURITY AND
SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2017 BONDS—PFC Revenue—Passenger
Facility Charge; Limitation on PFCs Pledged to Pay the Bonds;—Availability of PFC Revenue
and Termination of Authority to Impose a Passenger Facility Charge."
Deed of Trust Termination Date
Until the Deed of Trust Termination Date, the Series 2017 Bonds will also be secured, on
parity with the Series 2011A Bonds,by a pledge of the Corporation's leasehold interest pursuant
to the Deed of Trust in the Project Site leased under the Ground Leases, together with all
improvements thereon, and the Corporation's right, title and interest in and to the Road
Improvement Site, together with all improvements thereon. Upon the Deed of Trust Termination
Date, which may occur no earlier than the date on which the Series 2011A Bonds are no longer
Outstanding pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Deed of Trust will be fully released and
discharged, and will no longer secure the payment of the Series 2017 Bonds.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 34
Parking Facilities Sublease, De-Icing Facility Sublease and Road Improvements Lease;
Annual Appropriation Risk
The obligations of the County to make payments under the Parking Facilities Sublease,
De-Icing Facility Sublease and Road Improvements Lease do not constitute obligations of the
County to levy taxes or apply its general resources beyond the current Fiscal Year. The County
is required to pay rentals under these subleases and the lease only if funds are appropriated by
the County in each Fiscal Year. There is no assurance that the County will appropriate the rentals
from Fiscal Year to Fiscal Year and therefore not cause the expiration of the Parking Facilities
Sublease, the De-Icing Facility Sublease, or the Road Improvements Lease. There is no penalty
to the County if it does not appropriate the rentals due under the Parking Facilities Sublease, the
De-Icing Facility Sublease, and the Road Improvements Lease for any Fiscal Year and therefore
cause the Parking Facilities Sublease, the De-Icing Facility Sublease, and the Road
Improvements Lease to expire. The likelihood that the Parking Facilities Sublease will continue
in effect until the Series 2011A and the Series 2017B Bonds are paid and that the De-Icing
Facility Sublease and the Road Improvements Lease will continue in effect until the Series
2017A Bonds are paid is dependent upon factors which are beyond the control of the
Corporation. These factors include but are not limited to: (a) economic conditions in the County
and the State and the continued legal authority and ability of the County to generate sufficient
funds from property taxes and other sources to pay obligations associated with the Parking
Facilities Sublease, De-Icing Facility Sublease and Road Improvements Lease and other
obligations of the County and (b) the County's continued desire to use the Project, which is
dependent on a variety of other factors beyond the control of the Corporation.
Assumptions in the Report of the Airport Consultant
The Report of the Airport Consultant incorporates numerous assumptions as to the
Project Revenues and other matters and states that any forecast is subject to uncertainties. In
particular, the Report assumes, among other things, that (i) airline traffic demand at the Airport
will remain level through the end of the projection period of 2023 (see "FINANCIAL
INFORMATION—Airport Operations Historical Passenger Traffic and Airport Operations"
and "TABLE 4—Eagle County Regional Airport Historical Scheduled Airline Passenger Traffic
2012-2017"), (ii) all Signatory Airlines will extend and continue to operate under their Terminal
Building Leases through the end of the projection period of 2023 on terms and conditions,
including rental amounts, that are substantially similar to the current Terminal Building Leases,
and (iii) the rental car companies currently serving the Airport will extend their concession
agreements with the Corporation through the end of the projection period with agreement
provisions, minimum annual guarantees and rental amount requirements that are substantially
similar to the current agreements. Inevitably, some assumptions used to develop the forecasts
will not be realized, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. Therefore, the
actual results achieved during the forecast period will vary, and the variations may be material.
See "INTRODUCTION—Report of the Airport Consultant" and"APPENDIX A—REPORT OF
THE AIRPORT CONSULTANT."
DMWEST#16594819 v6 35
Construction of Terminal Expansion Project
Construction of the Terminal Expansion Project is planned to commence in March 2018
and,pursuant to the DB Contract,be substantially completed on the Substantial Completion Date
of November 15, 2019. The expansion would bring additional concessionaire space, among
other uses. Although the Corporation plans to erect temporary facilities to accommodate
concessionaires, advertisement space and other Airport services and to reduce the disruption to
the operation of the Terminal Building during the construction period, such temporary facilities
will not completely eliminate such disruption. The ability of the Corporation to complete
construction of the Terminal Expansion Project within budget and on schedule may be adversely
affected by various factors including: (a) estimating errors, (b) design and engineering errors, (c)
inefficiency in processing and awarding contracts, (d) unforeseen site conditions, (e) labor
difficulties, (f) adverse weather conditions, (g) unavailability of building materials, (h) contractor
defaults and(i) litigation.
The Corporation entered into the DB Contract with the Design-Builder for the design and
construction of the Terminal Expansion Project for a guaranteed maximum price of$29,145,837
("GMP"). Under the DB Contract, the GMP includes all costs reasonably and actually incurred
by the Design-Builder in the design, construction and other services required by the DB
Contract. The GMP is subject to an adjustment in certain limited circumstances set forth in the
DB Contract, such as presence of certain hazardous conditions on the project site or differing site
conditions, force majeure events, and changes in the scope of work. Although GMP mitigates
the risk of completing the construction within budget, the Corporation currently estimates that
the Total Expansion Project will cost approximately $33,000,000, which is approximately
$3,855,000 higher than the GMP. Such additional amount includes costs to be paid directly by
the Corporation (such as the costs of the building permits and passenger boarding bridges) and
the contingency amount and is expected to be paid from amounts on deposit in the Capital Fund
(other than the Minimum Capital Fund Balance) to the extent proceeds of the Series 2017B
Bonds are not sufficient therefor. As of August 15, 2017, $6,667,317 was on deposit in the
Capital Fund, including the Minimum Capital Fund Balance of $346,000. See "THE
PROJECT—The Design-Build Contract for the Terminal Expansion Project" and "APPENDIX
D—FORM OF THE INDENTURE" for provisions relating to the Capital Fund.
See "THE PROJECT—The Design-Build Contract for the Terminal Expansion Project."
Even though prior projects of the Corporation were constructed on time and within budget, such
projects were completed using different contractors, and there is no guarantee that the Terminal
Expansion Project will be similarly completed on time and for the amount currently budgeted by
the Corporation.
The Design-Builder will provide performance and payment bonds with respect to the
construction of the Terminal Building Expansion naming the Corporation and the Trustee as
additional obligees. In addition, the Corporation will collaterally assign to the Trustee the DB
Contract, together with any contracts with subcontracts and plans and specifications for the
Terminal Construction Project, and the Design-Builder will consent to the assignment of the DB
Contract. Furthermore, all insurance policies obtained by the Design-Builder during the
construction period are required to name the Corporation and the Trustee as additional insureds.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 36
While these measures and requirements would address some of the construction related risks, no
assurances are given that the construction will be completed on time and within current budget.
Competition
There are existing airports, such as Denver International Airport, Aspen airport (which
serves Pitkin County and the City of Aspen), and Grand Junction Regional Airport(which serves
the City of Grand Junction, Mesa County, and the Western slope generally), offering alternatives
for air travelers wishing to travel to the Airport's service area and similar destinations, and there
may be future competitors, some of which are or may be operated by persons possessing greater
financial resources than the Corporation, and which may be better able to withstand the effect of
competition. Airport operators compete with each other on the basis of location, rates and
concessions, and the quality of infrastructure and service offered at the Airport. The Corporation
believes that there will be sufficient demand for the Airport to compete effectively; however,
there is no assurance that the anticipated demand for the Project in the competitive market will
be as projected by the Corporation and the Airport Consultant.
Employee Retention
Due to the high cost of living in the communities that surround Vail and Beaver Creek,
employee retention is an ongoing challenge for service-sector companies like the concessionaires
that serve the Airport, as well as for the County that manages the Project and owns and operates
the Airport. The American Community Survey, implemented by the U.S. Census Bureau, has
found that 45% of families that reside in the County allocate more than 30% of their incomes to
housing costs. Further, the Vail Valley Partnership found that, in 2015, housing vacancy rates
were under 5%, resulting in a highly stressed rental market. See "APPENDIX B—ECONOMIC
AND DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION REGARDING EAGLE COUNTY" for a description
of certain economic and demographic information concerning the County. High housing costs
and cost of living may negatively affect the ability of employers (including the County) to
employ and retain qualified personnel.
Enforceability of Remedies
The practical realization of value from the Project upon any default will depend upon the
exercise of various remedies specified by the security documents securing the Series 2017
Bonds. See "APPENDIX D—SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE
INDENTURE—Events of Default and Remedies" for a description of events of default and
remedies under the Indenture. These and other remedies may, in many respects, require judicial
actions, which are often subject to discretion and delay. Under existing law (including
particularly federal bankruptcy law), the remedies specified by such documents may not be
readily available or may be limited. A court may decide not to order the specified performance of
the covenants contained in the security documents. In addition, federal bankruptcy law permits
the adoption of a reorganization plan even though the plan has not been accepted by the owners
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series 201 IA Bonds and the Series 2017
Bonds, if such owners are provided with the benefit of their original lien or the "indubitable
equivalent" thereof. If a bankruptcy court concludes that the owners of the Series 2017 Bonds
have "adequate protection," it may substitute other security subject to the lien of the owners of
DMWEST#16594819 v6 37
the Series 2017 Bonds and (b) subordinate the lien of the owners of the Series 2017 Bonds (i) to
claims by persons supplying goods and services to the Corporation after bankruptcy and (ii) to
the administrative expenses of the bankruptcy proceeding. In the event of bankruptcy of the
Corporation, the amount realized by the owners of the Series 2017 Bonds might depend on a
federal bankruptcy court's interpretation of"indubitable equivalent" and "adequate protection"
under then existing circumstances. A bankruptcy court may also have the power to invalidate
certain provisions of the security documents which make bankruptcy and related proceedings by
the Corporation an event of default thereunder. The various legal opinions to be delivered
concurrently with the delivery of the Series 2017 Bonds will be qualified as to the enforceability
of the various legal instruments by limitations imposed by state and federal laws, rulings, and
decisions affecting remedies and by bankruptcy, reorganization, or other laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally.
Liquidation of Security May Not Be Sufficient in the Event of a Default
In the event of a default by the Corporation under the Indenture, the Trustee and/or the
Corporation must look solely to the Project and Project Revenues to pay and satisfy the Series
2017 Bonds in accordance with their terms. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT
FOR THE SERIES 2017 BONDS." The owners of the Series 2017 Bonds are dependent entirely
upon the success of the Project for the payment of the Series 2017 Bonds. In the event the
revenues from the Project are insufficient to pay the amounts due on the Series 2017 Bonds,then
once the other security for the Series 2011A Bonds and Series 2017 Bonds has been exhausted,
the owners of the Series 2011A Bonds and Series 2017 Bonds will have no person or entity to
pursue for any deficiency which may exist. The practical use of the Project is limited to its use as
an airport terminal, de-icing facility and access roads. If it were necessary to foreclose the lien of
the Deed of Trust on the Project (which is an available remedy only until the Deed of Trust
Termination Date), net proceeds received may be less than the principal amount of the Series
2011A Bonds and Series 2017 Bonds outstanding. After the Deed of Trust Termination Date,
foreclosure on the lien of the Deed of Trust will no longer be available to the owners of the
Series 2017 Bonds. See"—Deed of Trust Termination Date" above.
Financial Condition of the Corporation
The Corporation has no appreciable assets other than its interest in the Project. Therefore,
as a practical matter, owners of the Series 2017 Bonds must look to the Project and the
Corporation's ability to collect Project Revenue to produce the revenues to pay the amounts due
under the Indenture, and in the event of insolvency of the Corporation, the only asset of the
Corporation which can reasonably be anticipated to be available to produce revenues to pay the
amounts due under the Indenture will be the Project.
Uncertainty of Continued Collective Marketing Efforts
The County, as well as several municipalities, hotels, restaurant groups, and other
businesses within the County, including Vail Resorts, Inc. ("Vail Resorts"), a publicly traded
company on the New York Stock Exchange and the operator of the Colorado mountain resorts of
Vail, Breckenridge, Keystone and Beaver Creek, are supporters of and contributors to the EGE
Air Alliance (the "Alliance") a non-profit, public-private organization whose primary mission is
DMWEST#16594819 v6 38
to work with airlines, in partnership with the Airport, to maintain existing flights and secure new
flights to and from the Airport. The Airport and the Alliance have previously entered into
agreements with some of the airlines serving the Airport to assist and subsidize joint marketing
efforts and/or guarantee a certain amount of revenue on the scheduled service by such airlines
using the Airport, although the Corporation is not aware of the exact terms of agreements made
exclusively with the Alliance.
Unlike similar groups in other regions, the Alliance does not receive continual funding
through a dedicated self-sustaining revenue source, such as a tax or an allocated budget from a
governmental entity, but is instead reliant upon voluntary contributions from the public and
private sources described above in order to fund its ongoing efforts. Therefore, the continued
existence of the Alliance and its work with the airlines that serve the Airport is uncertain. The
Airport does have an established marketing budget to continue development of new service as
deemed appropriate by Airport management, but there is no guarantee that such funds allocated
from such budget would be sufficient to mitigate any loss of contributions to the Alliance.
The efforts of and agreements with the Alliance may encourage some or all of the airlines
serving the Airport to continue to schedule service at the Airport. In the event that the Alliance
does not continue to receive sufficient funding to continue such efforts, the Corporation is unable
to predict what effect this would have on an airline's decision to continue to provide service to
the Airport. The Airport's currently scheduled service does include many established routes that
are no longer considered to be "shared risk"routes, meaning such routes are no longer subsidized
by the Airport or the Alliance. However, there is no guarantee that even well-established routes
will continue to be offered by the Signatory Airlines in the future.
Additional Debt
The Indenture provides that the Corporation may issue Additional Bonds, including
Refunding Bonds, secured by Project Revenues and the Project on a parity with the Series 2011A
Bonds and the Series 2017 Bonds as described herein under "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF
PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2017 BONDS—Additional Bonds." The Corporation is not
obligated to issue Additional Bonds, however, and has no present intent of issuing Additional
Bonds.
Failure to Maintain Enterprise Status
Although the County regards the possibility that the Corporation might be disqualified as
an "enterprise" in any year during the term of the Series 2017 Bonds as remote, such
disqualification of the Corporation as an "enterprise" in any future year may limit the
Corporation's ability to collect, retain and expend revenues, including Project Revenues, thereby
possibly negatively impacting the security for the Series 2017 Bonds. See "STATE
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT"herein.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 39
AIRPORT AGREEMENTS
Terminal Building Leases
Currently, there are three separate Terminal Building Leases between the Corporation
and each Signatory Airline, namely American, Delta, and United. Signatory Airlines account for
approximately 99.7% of the airline activity at the Airport. The Terminal Building Leases permit
the Corporation to enter into leases with additional airlines providing air transportation to and
from the Airport using the terminal building (the "Terminal Building") that have executed
agreements with the Corporation which are substantially similar to the Terminal Building
Leases. All Terminal Building Leases contain substantially identical terms. Certain of these
terms are described below.
Term. All Terminal Building Leases (except for the United Terminal Building Lease
which commenced effective as of December 1, 2009)were entered into effective as of December
1, 2006 for a three-year term and were extended: (i) effective as of each of December 1, 2009
and December 1, 2012, in each case, for an additional three-year term, and (ii) effective as of
December 1, 2015 for additional thirty-seven month term. As such, all Terminal Building
Leases expire on December 31, 2018, unless earlier terminated pursuant to their terms. Each
Terminal Building Lease provides that following the expiration date, the Lease will
automatically convert into a month to month tenancy with all other terms and conditions
remaining the same, except that such Lease can be terminated by the Corporation upon 30 days'
prior written notice. In addition, under certain circumstances, the Signatory Airlines may
terminate their respective Terminal Building Leases prior to the stated expiration date. For
example, any Signatory Airline (unless such Signatory Airline is in default under its Terminal
Building Lease) may terminate its Terminal Building Lease without cause by giving a written
notice that is received by the Corporation during the five business days preceding April 1 or
September 1 of each year during the term of the Terminal Building Lease. Additionally, any
Signatory Airline may terminate its Terminal Building Lease (unless such Signatory Airline is in
default under its Terminal Building Lease), upon 30 days' prior written notice, if: (i) the
Corporation is in default of any material provision of the Terminal Building Lease (subject to
cure rights of the Corporation), or (ii) such Signatory Airline becomes subject to any order, rule
or regulation of any federal or state agency or to a court order which substantially prevents such
Signatory Airline's use of the Airport.
While, prior to the expiration of the current Terminal Building Leases on December 31,
2018, the Corporation intends to negotiate extensions or enter into new leases with the Signatory
Airlines, there is no assurance that the Signatory Airlines will agree to extend the current
Terminal Building Leases or enter into new terminal building leases by the time the existing
Leases expire or will enter into new leases on terms that are as favorable to the Corporation as
the existing Terminal Building Leases. See "CERTAIN INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS—
Terminal Building Leases. "
Rent. The Terminal Building Leases require the Signatory Airlines and any airline that
signs a Terminal Building Lease to collectively share in the payment of an annual total rental
amount for use of the Terminal Building (the "Total Rent Amount"). The Total Rent Amount
includes (i) rent for each Signatory Airline's exclusive-use space within the Terminal Building
DMWEST#16594819 v6 40
■
space and its proportionate share of the joint-use space within the Terminal Building and (ii)
each Signatory Airline's proportionate share of the debt service coverage requirements (to the
extent such requirement is not funded) and all other debt-related costs associated with the Bonds.
Each Signatory Airlines proportionate share of the costs included in the calculation of the Total
Rent Amount is determined using the ratio of the number of such Signatory Airline's enplaned
passengers at the Airport during the most recent calendar year for which such information is
available to the total number of enplaned passengers of all Signatory Airlines during that same
calendar year, except that 20% of the rent attributable to joint use space is allocated in equal
amounts among the Signatory Airlines. The Total Rent Amount is calculated each year based on
the formulas and procedures set forth in the Terminal Building Leases and each Signatory
Airline pays its share of such amount in 12 equal monthly installments on the first day of each
month of the Terminal Building Lease. In the event a Signatory Airline fails to make payment
within fifteen (15) days from the due date, the Corporation, with prior notice to the Signatory
Airline, may charge a late service charge equal to the lesser of 2% per month or the highest rate
allowed by applicable law on any such overdue amounts and in some cases,the Signatory Airline
may be liable for administrative costs and attorneys' fees incurred by the Corporation in
attempting to obtain payment.
The Terminal Building Leases permit the Corporation to adjust the Total Rent Amount
(after consultation with the Signatory Airlines) during any year in which the Corporation projects
the Total Rent Amount to vary by 20% or more in the succeeding year if the then existing total
rental payments due from the Signatory Airlines would result in an overpayment or
underpayment of the revenue (not including the PFC Revenue) derived by the Corporation from
the operation and use of the Terminal Building or to ensure such revenue is generated during the
fiscal year in sufficient amount to meet the annual budget of the Corporation.
The Terminal Building Leases require the Corporation to refund to the Signatory
Airlines, within 60 days of the close of the annual financial audit, 50% of any Net Concession
Revenues up to $600,000 which would result in a maximum refund of$300,000, on a pro-rata
basis based on actual enplanements from the Terminal Building during such fiscal year;
provided, that if a Signatory Airline is in default of its Terminal Building Lease, the Corporation
may withhold any refund due to such Signatory Airline until the default is cured, and any such
Net Concession Revenue share will result in an immediate offset against any amounts due to the
Corporation from such Signatory Airline. The Terminal Building Leases further restrict
refunding of 50% of any Net Concession Revenues in the event an airline files for bankruptcy.
For purposes of the Terminal Building Leases, "Net Concession Revenues" equals the
Concession Revenues reduced by the Terminal Building Shortfall. "Concession Revenues" is
defined as all Terminal Building revenues derived by the Corporation from food, beverage
catering, news and gift vendors, rental cars and other ground transportation providers, parking,
advertising, ski rentals and other retail sales and services. "Terminal Building Shortfall" is
defined as the Total Rent Amount less the sum of all actual rental payments made by the
Signatory Airlines and the non-signatory airlines for use of the Terminal Building.
Total Rent Amount received by the Corporation in Fiscal Years ended December 31,
2012 through December 31, 2016 is set forth under the entry"Building Rentals"in Table 2 under
the caption "FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Historical Financial Operations." During that
period, rents from all commercial airlines utilizing the Airport averaged $2,505,636 per year.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 41
This amount represented approximately 56% of the Corporation's total operating revenue (not
including the PFC Revenue) on average for each of those years. This percentage does not take
into account any revenue sharing amounts or refunds received by the Signatory Airlines. See
Table 2 under "FINANCIAL INFORMATION— Historical Financial Operations" for a
summary of the Corporation's last five Fiscal Years' terminal building rental income which
includes rents from all commercial airlines utilizing the Airport.
PFC Backstop Payment. The Terminal Building Leases provide for rental payments as
well as PFC Backstop Payments in the event that PFCs expected to be collected at the Airport
are insufficient to pay that portion of the annual debt service on the PFC Eligible Bonds that is
eligible to be paid with the PFC Revenue (i.e. principal on the Series 2011A Bonds and principal
and interest on the Series 2017A Bonds). In such event, the Total Rent Amount due from the
Signatory Airlines may be increased (proportionately based on enplanements) to include an
amount (the "PFC Backstop Payment") equal to "the deficiency in collected PFCs necessary
for payment of that portion of the total annual debt service due on the Bonds that would have
been eligible for PFC funding under the Airport's PFC application approved by the FAA";
provided, however, that the PFC Backstop Payment collectively paid by the Signatory Airlines
may not exceed $450,000 annually. The Terminal Building Leases generally define "Bonds" as
debt of the Corporation issued to finance projects for the construction, expansion, improvement
or preservation of the Terminal Building and related facilities and services. The PFC Backstop
Payment has not been required from, or paid by, the current Signatory Airlines throughout the
term of the Terminal Building Leases. If the Corporation enters into new Terminal Building
Leases with the Signatory Airlines, such leases may not contain provisions relating to PFC
Backstop Payment.
Other Terminal Building Revenues
In addition to amounts payable by Signatory Airlines under their respective Terminal
Building Leases, other Project Revenues are derived from car rental, news/gift, food/beverage
and other concessions, ground transportation permits, advertising display fees, and certain other
fees and commissions. See Table 6 under "FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Terminal Building
Concessions" for a summary of the Corporation's last five Fiscal Years' concession income.
Currently, the Corporation has lease agreements for rental car services with four (4)
rental car companies, namely Enterprise Leasing Company (d/b/a Alamo Rent a Car and
National Car Rental); Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC (d/b/a Avis and Budget); Frontier Rental,
Inc. (d/b/a Dollar Rent A Car and Thrifty Car Rental); and The Hertz Corporation, all of which
expire on October 31, 2017 with the option to extend for two additional one-year agreements
through October 31, 2019. The Corporation anticipates sending requests for proposals in
September of 2017 to rental car companies and expects to enter into new lease agreements with
rental car companies who are awarded the contracts.
Rental car concession revenues currently consist of payment by each rental car company
of: (i)rent at$3.56 per square foot per month for counter space at the Terminal Building, (ii)rent
at $44.00 per space per month for ready/return spaces, and (iii) the greater of: (A) a percentage
fee at a rate of 10% of its gross rental car revenues from the Airport during each calendar month
(the "Percentage Fee"), and (B) any applicable minimum monthly guaranteed payments
DMWEST#16594819 v6 42
("Minimum Monthly Guarantees"), which are generally applicable during the peak ski season
months, and are set forth in specified amounts (which vary for each rental car company) in the
lease agreements. The lease agreements provide that the rent per space per month for
ready/return parking spaces will increase by $3.00 for each extension period, meaning that this
rent would be $47.00 per space per month from November 1, 2017 through October 31, 2018
and $50.00 per space per month from November 1, 2018 through October 31, 2019, if these
leases are extended through such periods. See Table 6 under"FINANCIAL INFORMATION—
Terminal Building Concessions" for a summary of the Corporation's last five Fiscal Years'
rental revenues.
These lease agreements permit the Corporation to grant up to a total of four
concessionaires the right to offer rental car services at the Terminal Building. Accordingly, until
the current leases terminate or amended, the Corporation may not enter into additional leases for
car rental services.
For the Fiscal Years ending December 31, 2012 through December 31, 2016, concession
revenue from rental car companies utilizing the Airport averaged $1,616,752 per year, which
represents approximately 33% of the Corporation's total operating revenue (not including the
PFC Revenue)for those years.
The Corporation also receives revenues under agreements with two (2) ground
transportation companies, which pay rent per square foot of occupied space and minimum
monthly privilege fees at a predetermined amount during the ski season months of December
through April. The agreements with each of these companies terminated in October 2016;
however, both companies continue to operate and lease space within the Terminal Building on a
month to month "holdover" basis, as permitted by such agreements. Such month to month
tenancy may be terminated at any time by the applicable company or by the Corporation upon
thirty 30 days' written notice. The Corporation has stated that it anticipates soliciting quote
requests from vendors in early fall 2017 to continue to provide such services at the Airport, with
the expectation that such vendors would enter into similar agreements with the Corporation.
There is no guarantee of the terms of such anticipated agreements, or that such agreements will
be entered into at all. See Table 6 under "FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Terminal Building
Concessions" for the last five Fiscal Years of the Corporation's ground transportation, retail and
other concessions revenues.
Other concessionaires, such as news, food, and gift vendors and restaurant operators
within the Airport, generate revenues for the Corporation through the payment of: (i) annually-
guaranteed minimum payments in predetermined amounts, (ii) fees calculated as specified
percentages of their respective gross revenues, if any, to the extent such fees are in excess of
annually-guaranteed minimum payments, and (iii) in some cases, monthly rents per square
footage of leased storage space.
The Corporation has stated that the primary concession provider for the restaurant, gift
shop, and cafe within the Terminal Building is scheduled for renewal in October 2017. Because
it is expected that the Terminal Expansion Project will necessitate the temporary relocation of
concessionaires, the Corporation and such concessionaire are currently negotiating a temporary
concessionaire agreement which is expected to result, on a temporary basis, in a smaller footprint
DMWEST#16594819 v6 43
of available concession offerings during the Terminal Expansion Project period. As a result,
concession revenues may decrease from current levels until the completion of the Terminal
Expansion Project and the selection of a new permanent concession provider. The Terminal
Expansion Project is expected to allow for consolidation and improved location of concessions in
upon completion of the construction, with the goal of increasing concession revenues in the
future. However, there is no guarantee that such increased revenues will be realized. See"THE
PROJECT—Terminal Expansion Project."
Parking Facilities Sublease
The Corporation and the County entered into a Parking Facilities Sublease dated as of
June 1, 2001, as amended (the "Parking Facilities Sublease") pursuant to which the County
subleases from the Corporation a portion of the existing public parking area (the "Subleased
Parking Area") for the Terminal Building. Under the Parking Facilities Sublease, the County is
given the nonexclusive right to operate parking facilities at the Subleased Parking Area,
including the right to charge for parking. The County has the right to renew the Parking Facilities
Sublease for successive annual terms through December 31, 2045. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Parking Facilities Sublease terminates upon the defeasance of Bonds issued under
the Indenture to finance the Terminal Building Project (including the Terminal Building
Expansion)and any Bonds issued to refund the same.
The County's decision to renew annually the Parking Facilities Sublease is to be
determined by whether or not the County Board has, on or before December 31 of each year, (a)
specifically included the rentals under the Parking Facilities Sublease in the County's annual
budget, or(b) if no rentals are expected by the Corporation to be due for the upcoming year, the
County did not provide written notice to the Corporation of the County's intent not to renew. See
"CERTAIN INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS—Parking Facilities Sublease, De-Icing
Facility Sublease and Road Improvements Lease; Annual Appropriation Risk." The County has
renewed the Parking Facilities Sublease each year in accordance with it terms.
Under the Parking Facilities Sublease, the County agrees to pay, on April 15 of each year
the Parking Facilities Sublease is in effect an annual sum of$10.00 which is to be increased in
any year, up to the Space and Facilities Charges Cap Amount applicable in that year, by (a) the
amount of Project Revenues required to be deposited in the Capital Fund in order to maintain the
Minimum Capital Fund Balance as of April 1 of such year, as determined by the Corporation,
and(b) the amount required as of April 1 of such year for the ratio of(x) Net Revenues for such
year (excluding any Excess PFC Revenue for such year), together with Other Available Funds
and investment earnings on the Debt Service Reserve Fund, to (y) the estimated Debt Service on
the Bonds to be 1:1. The Parking Facilities Sublease defines "Space and Facilities Charges
Cap Amount" as an amount equal to $411,000 commencing with the Fiscal Year ending
December 31, 2017, as adjusted each year starting with the Fiscal Year ending December 31,
2018 by the Denver-Aurora-Lakewood, Colorado Consumer Price Index for all Urban
Consumers,All Items,published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 44
De-Icing Facility Sublease
The Corporation and the County entered into a De-Icing Facility Sublease dated as of
June 1, 2006, as amended (as previously defined, the "De-Icing Facility Sublease") pursuant to
which the County subleases from the Corporation the land and leases the de-icing facility
improvements constructed on the land. Under the De-Icing Facility Sublease, the County is given
the nonexclusive right to operate the de-icing facility, including the right to charge for services
provided by the facility. The County has a right to renew the De-Icing Facility Sublease for
successive annual terms through December 31, 2031. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the De-
Icing Facility Sublease terminates upon the defeasance of the Series 2017A Bonds and any
Bonds issued to refund the Series 2017A Bonds.
The County's decision to renew annually is to be determined by whether or not (a) the
County Board has, on or before December 31 of each year, specifically included the rentals
under the De-Icing Facility Sublease in the County's annual budget or, (b) if no rentals are
expected by the Corporation to be due for the upcoming year, the County did not provide written
notice to the Corporation of the County's intent not to renew. See "CERTAIN INVESTMENT
CONSIDERATIONS—Parking Facilities Sublease, De-Icing Facility Sublease and Road
Improvements Lease; Annual Appropriation Risk." Since its execution, the County has renewed
the De-Icing Facility Sublease each year in accordance with it terms.
Under the De-Icing Facility Sublease, the County agrees to pay, on April 15 and October
15 of each year the De-Icing Facility Sublease is in effect, the sum equal, in the aggregate, to the
current annual Debt Service on the Series 2017A Bonds, subject to a reduction equal to (i) with
respect to the April 15th payment, an amount on deposit in the Principal Account and the Interest
Account which, as determined by the Corporation, is available to pay principal and interest on
the Series 2017A Bonds due on May 1 of such year, and (ii) with respect to the October 15th
payment, an amount on deposit in the Interest Account which, as determined by the Corporation,
is available to pay interest on the Series 2017A Bonds due on November 1 of such year.
The revenues generated by the operation of a de-icing facility by the County are not
pledged to the repayment of the Bonds. However, the County has been transferring each year to
the Corporation for application to the Revenue Fund certain amounts received by the County
pursuant to an agreement between the County and Vail Valley Jet Center, LLC ("VVJC") in
connection with VVJC's use of a portion of the De-Icing Facility. See Table 2 under
"FINANCIAL OPERATIONS—Historical Financial Operations" for such amounts transferred
by the County to the Corporation. That agreement terminated in February of 2017. Although it
is expected that VVJC will need to use the de-icing facility in the future, neither VVJC nor the
County has commenced any negotiations with respect to any agreement regarding such future
use. Furthermore, the County is not obligated to transfer any amounts received by it from VVJC
or any other users of the de-icing facility and, therefore, such amounts may not be available to
the Corporation in the future.
Road Improvements Lease
The Corporation and the County entered into the Road Improvements Lease, pursuant to
which the County leases the Road Improvement Site for purposes of making various road
DMWEST#16594819 v6 45
improvements in connection with the realignment of Airport access roads and operating such
improvements during the lease term. The County has the right to renew the Road Improvements
Lease for successive annual terms through December 31, 2031. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Road Improvements Lease terminates upon the defeasance of the Series 2017A Bonds and
any Bonds issued to refund the Series 2017A Bonds.
The County's decision to renew annually is to be determined by whether or not (a) the
County Board has, on or before December 31 of each year, specifically included the rentals
under the Road Improvements Lease in the County's annual budget or, (b) if no rentals are
expected by the Corporation to be due for the upcoming year, the County did not provide written
notice to the Corporation of the County's intent not to renew. See "CERTAIN INVESTMENT
CONSIDERATIONS—Parking Facilities Sublease, De-Icing Facility Sublease and Road
Improvements Lease; Annual Appropriation Risk." Since its execution, the County has renewed
the Road Improvements Lease each year in accordance with it terms.
Under the Road Improvements Lease, the County agrees to pay, on April 15 and October
15 of each year, the Road Improvements Lease is in effect, the sum equal, in the aggregate, to the
current annual Debt Service on the Series 2017A Bonds, subject to a reduction equal to (i) with
respect to the April 15th payment, an amount on deposit in the Principal Account and the Interest
Account which, as determined by the Corporation, is available to pay principal and interest on
the Series 2017A Bonds due on May 1 of such year, and (ii) with respect to the October 15th
payment, an amount on deposit in the Interest Account which, as determined by the Corporation,
is available to pay interest on the Series 2017A Bonds due on November 1 of such year, and
subject to a further reduction in the amount equal to the amount of payments made by the County
to the Corporation under the De-Icing Facility Sublease on April 15 or October 15, as applicable.
The revenues generated by the operation of road improvements by the County are not
pledged to the repayment of the Bonds.

THE PROJECT
Terminal Building Project and the Terminal Expansion Project
The Terminal Building, together with access road improvements and non-revenue public
parking areas comprise the Terminal Building Project. The current Terminal Building is an
approximately 91,000 square foot scheduled commercial passenger terminal which includes six
gate locations, thirteen ticket counters (each counter is a two-position counter) in the ticketing
lobby; airline ticket operations offices behind the thirteen ticket counters; an outbound baggage
conveyor system for all airline ticket counters and curbside check-in ticket counters; six ticket
counters located outside the terminal at the curbside check-in area; three `T'-shaped baggage
conveyors, and one oversized baggage slide, all located in the baggage claim area; restrooms,
passenger hold rooms, airline operations space, and concession space.
The Corporation believes that the Terminal Expansion Project is necessary in order to
address known deficient areas within the Terminal Building, such as curbside/check-in
operational concerns, TSA screening checkpoint passenger flow concerns, and departure lounge
and baggage claim issues. The Corporation expects that the Terminal Expansion Project would
enhance the customer experience with a larger circulation area and updated amenities, provide
flexibility for terminal operations with shared use gates, and increase the level of safety and
efficiency with the addition of four passenger boarding bridges (PBBs).
The Terminal Expansion Project will involve the re-design, replacement and expansion of
the entire hold room portion of the existing Terminal Building which currently contains six gate
locations. Upon completion, such area is planned to consist of two levels containing
approximately six gates, passenger holding rooms, restrooms, two escalators, one elevator, and
core shell space for future concessionaire spaces (which will ultimately be built out by such
concessionaires), support services, and a redesigned TSA checkpoint that will increase queuing
space. Gates One through Four will be located on the second floor and will be served by PBBs
and Gates Five and Six will be located on the first floor and will be ground boarding gates. The
Terminal Expansion Project is expected to add approximately 50,000 square feet to the current
Terminal Building, resulting in approximately 141,000 square foot Terminal Building upon
completion of the Terminal Expansion Project.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 47
During the Terminal Expansion Project, four temporary gates and a food concessions
area will be located in or near"Terminal B" (possibly with the addition of a temporary structure
during construction) and a minimum of two gates will be utilized in the existing Terminal
Building while the other four gates are being constructed. Terminal B is located adjacent to the
Vail Valley Jet Center approximately 500 ft. to the east of the Terminal Building and will be
connected to the Terminal Building with a temporary corridor. These temporary facilities will
allow for full passenger terminal operations while the Terminal Expansion Project is being
completed.
The Terminal Expansion Project was designed and will be built by the Design-Builder
pursuant to the DB Contract, which is described in more detail under "—Design-Build Contract
for the Terminal Expansion Project; Consulting Engineer"below.
The Terminal Building Project is owned by the Corporation and is located on the
Terminal Building Site which is owned by the County and leased to the Corporation pursuant to
the terms of the Terminal Ground Lease, described in "—The Ground Leases" below. The
Terminal Expansion Project will also be owned by the Corporation and will be located on the
Terminal Building Site. Pursuant to the terms of the Project Construction and Management
Agreement dated as of , 2017 and a predecessor agreement (collectively, the
"Terminal Building Management Agreement"), the County operates the Terminal Building
Project on behalf of the Corporation.
2006 Project
The 2006 Project consisted of(i) construction of an aircraft de-icing facility comprised of
a surface area of 122,000 square feet, two concrete pads, and two underground containment
systems and related improvements, and (ii) construction and realignment of access roads to the
Airport by re-routing the western end of Eldon Wilson Road to intersect Cooley Mesa Road with
Spring Creek Road and the acquisition of an adjacent approximately 2.0-acre property in
connection with the road realignment.
The de-icing facility and the Road Improvement Site are owned by the Corporation. The
de-icing facility is located on the De-Icing Facility Site that is leased by the Corporation from the
County under the De-Icing Facility Ground Lease. The De-Icing Facility Site and the
improvements constructed thereon are subleased by the Corporation to the County under the De-
Icing Facility Sublease. The Road Improvement Site is leased by the Corporation to the County
under the Road Improvements Lease. The remaining portion of the road improvements is located
on the land owned by the County but is leased to the Corporation. The County operates the de-
icing facility pursuant to the De-Icing Facility Sublease and all road improvements pursuant to
the Road Improvements Lease. See "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS— De-Icing Facility
Sublease;—Road Improvements Lease."
The Design-Build Contract for the Terminal Expansion Project; Consulting Engineer
The Corporation entered into a design-build agreement (as previously defined, the "DB
Contract") with Hensel Phelps Construction Co., a Delaware general partnership (as previously
defined, the "Design-Builder") for the design and construction of the Terminal Expansion
DMWEST#16594819 v6 48
Project. The DB Contract sets a guaranteed maximum price of $29,145,837. The current
construction budget includes an additional approximately $3,855,000 to be paid by the
Corporation directly for various costs related to the Terminal Expansion Project, such as costs
related to building permits fees, passenger boarding bridges, temporary facilities and
contingency, which brings the total estimated costs of the Terminal Expansion Project to
approximately$33,000,000.
The Design-Builder agrees to construct the Terminal Expansion Project based on the
schedule which provides for milestone dates by which substantial completion of each phase of
construction must be achieved. The DB Contract provides that substantial completion of all
work under the DB Contract must occur on November 15, 2019 (the "Substantial Completion
Date"). If such milestones and the Substantial Completion Date are not achieved, the DB
Contracts requires the Design-Builder to pay liquidated damages for each day of delay up to a
maximum aggregate limit of$750,000.
Hensel Phelps Construction Co. is one of the largest general contractors and construction
managers in the United States, ranked consistently among ENR's (Engineering News-Record)
top 20 Contractors. Founded in 1937 by a small, local builder in Greeley, Colorado, Hensel
Phelps has grown into a multibillion-dollar employee owned, national contractor. The Hensel
Phelps team has delivered over 190 aviation projects with a combined value exceeding $6
Billion. Hensel Phelps provides extensive experience coordinating with airport operations and
airlines facilities personnel throughout the United States, including the successful delivery of
projects at many major airports, such as Baltimore—Washington International Airport,
Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, Washington Dulles International Airport, George Bush
Intercontinental Airport, Los Angeles International Airport, Orlando International Airport, San
Francisco International Airport and San Jose International Airport. Hensel Phelps has worked on
a variety of aviation project types for the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA), local and regional
aviation authorities, the Department of Defense, as well as private airlines. This past experience
will allow Hensel Phelps to be the expert in planning and site logistics as well as coordination
and phasing activities while working in the fully operational airport.
The Corporation retained Menendez Architects pc as the consulting engineer for the
Terminal Expansion Project (the "Consulting Engineer"). Menendez Architects pc is a full
service architectural firm based in Aspen, Colorado, with over 33 years of experience in the

to reassign the right-of-way or by a failure to repair traffic lights displaying conflicting
directions, or a dangerous condition caused by a known accumulation of snow and ice which
interferes with access to public buildings; (e) a dangerous condition of any public hospital,jail,
public facility located in any park or recreation area maintained by a public entity, or public
water, gas, sanitation, electrical, power, or swimming facility; (f) the operation and maintenance
by a public entity of any public water, gas, sanitation, electrical, power or swimming facility; (g)
the operation and maintenance of a qualified state capital asset that is the subject of a leveraged
leasing agreement or (h) failure to perform an education employment required background
check. The maximum amount that may be recovered on a claim based on a single occurrence
involving one of the exclusions of the Immunity Act is limited to $350,000 for injury to one
person and$990,000 for injury to two or more persons in a single occurrence. The Immunity Act
also provides that public entities are not liable either directly or by indemnification for punitive
or exemplary damages or for damages for outrageous conduct, except where the public entity
determines by resolution that it is in the public interest to defend or settle a claim for punitive
damages against a public employee. The County, however, may not be immune from liability
and may be subject to liability in excess of the maximum limits established by the Immunity Act
in the event of claims based on certain federal laws or state laws not grounded in tort, for
example: suits filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 alleging the deprivation of federal
constitutional or statutory rights of an individual, suits alleging anti-competitive practices and
violation of the anti-trust laws by the County in the exercise of its delegated powers and suits
based on breach of contract. The Immunity Act also specifies the sources from which judgments
against public entities may be collected. Pursuant to the Immunity Act, a public entity may
prospectively waive its immunity. The County has not waived its immunity and has no plans to
do so. The Immunity Act may be amended by the State General Assembly at any time.
Aside from liability for certain tortious actions, as described above, the County may also
be subject to civil liability for actions under various federal or State laws. Examples of potential
federal civil liability include suits filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 alleging the deprivation of
federal constitutional or statutory rights of an individual, and suits alleging anti-competitive
practices and violation of antitrust laws except in the exercise of its delegated powers. Examples
of potential civil liability under State laws include actions related to contractual obligations, such
DMWEST#16594819 v6 56
as employment contracts, capital construction contracts and lease contracts, and actions alleging
inverse condemnation.
THE AIRPORT
Airport Facilities
General. The Airport is a publicly owned and used airport located in northwest Colorado
between the towns of Eagle and Gypsum, approximately 35 and 25 miles, respectively, from the
Vail and Beaver Creek Resorts/Ski Areas.
The present Airport site encompasses approximately 650 acres, and includes one 9,000-
foot runway that is 150 feet in width. The runway pavement section consists of 12 inches of
asphalt on six inches of aggregate base course. The pavement section is rated at greater than
75,000 pounds for aircraft with single wheel gear and 255,000 pounds for aircraft with dual
tandem wheel gear. The runway is painted with precision instrument runway markings. Taxiway
"A" is a 75-foot-wide full-length taxiway parallel to and south of the runway and is paved with
asphalt.
In 1996, the Corporation undertook the construction and equipping of the Terminal
Building as well as the construction of parking areas, access road improvements, and sewer and
other utility improvements. The Terminal Building was expanded in 2001 and in 2007 and will
be further expanded and renovated as part of the Terminal Expansion Project. See "THE
PROJECT—The Terminal Building Project and the Terminal Expansion Project."
Outside of the Terminal Building, the Airport currently has two separate aircraft parking
aprons. The concrete air carrier and general aviation parking apron for Terminal A and the FBO
Terminal is located on the south side of the runway and is approximately 110,000 square yards in
size. There are air carrier parking spaces for a total of 10 Boeing 757 aircraft. There is an
additional general aviation apron north of the runway and adjacent to a closed runway which
now serves as Taxiway `B." The north apron contains approximately 32,915 square yards of
paved aircraft parking space. There are 13 tie-down positions marked on the north apron that are
used to tie down aircrafts.
The runway is equipped with a High Intensity Runway Lighting system, including
Precision Approach Path Indicator Lights and Runway End Identifier Lights. There is a rotating
beacon to assist pilots in locating the Airport at night and during periods of inclement weather.
The Airport has an air traffic control tower to assist pilots in making landings and takeoffs. A
Category I Instrument Landing System is installed on Runway 25, which has increased the
aircraft arrival capacity and reliability of the Airport during periods of adverse/low-visibility
weather. A BI-6 radar system was commissioned in summer 2007 and has further increased
arrival and departure capacity during all periods at the Airport. The 1,000-foot runway extension
project, completed in 2009, has enhanced safety at the Airport and increased payload capacity for
departing aircraft.
The Terminal Building and the FBO Terminal (described in "—General Aviation
Services" below) are located on the south side of the runway. In addition to these facilities, there
are large executive hangars, a fuel truck storage area, a de-icing facility and an underground fuel
DMWEST#16594819 v6 57
farm on the south side. An electrical vault and telephone equipment room are located just south
of the vehicular parking lot.
The north apron area includes the following facilities: air traffic control tower;
ceilometer; an Automated Weather Observation System; the Colorado Army National Guard
Colorado High Altitude Training Site Headquarters; seven executive hangars; and an Airport
maintenance shop and storage area.
In 1992, the County constructed an approximately 12,000-square-foot air rescue and fire-
fighting and snow removal equipment building ("ARFF/SRE"). The ARFF/SRE building
contains six bays, an apparatus storage area, maintenance and parts repair areas, a day/training
room and a watch alarm room. This facility is located on the south side of the runway, near the
Terminal Building Project Site.
In the last five years, approximately $35,000,000 in capital improvements have been
made to the Airport facilities, with most improvements funded with federal AIP grants to the
Airport. These improvements are shown in the table below.

The area west of the north apron and surrounding Taxiway `B" has been leased to the
Colorado Army National Guard for future expansion of the Colorado High Altitude Training
Site.
Two access roads provide entry into the Airport. One is located north of the Airport and
links the general aviation apron to U.S. Highway 6. The other is located south of the Airport and
links the commercial aircraft apron, including the Terminal via Cooley Mesa Road to U.S.
Highway 6. This road provides access to the Terminal Building Project and in 2007 was aligned
to intersect with Spring Valley Road, at its Cooley Mesa road intersection. Interstate 70,
approximately 3/4 of a mile north of the Airport, is accessible to the west via the U.S. 6
connector through the Towns of Eagle and Gypsum.
The Airport has one underground fuel farm located on the south side of the Airport at the
FBO Terminal and one above-ground fuel farm located on the north side of the Airport. The
underground fuel farm consists of one 5,000 gallon defuel tank, two 40,000 gallon, two 30,000
gallon and two 20,000 gallon jet fuel tanks. There is also an underground 10,000 gallon lead-free
vehicle fuel tank. The above-ground fuel farm on the north side consists of a 12,000 gallon jet
fuel tank and a 12,000 gallon 100LL avgas tank.
All utility lines serving the Airport are buried underground and provide service to the
buildings and airfield facilities. All utilities can be extended to accommodate the Project. Potable
water and water for fire protection are provided to the Airport by the Town of Gypsum.
Electricity is provided by Holy Cross Electric and natural gas is provided by Black Hills Energy.
The Airport's telephone service is provided by CenturyLink. Trash and refuse are collected and
hauled to the County landfill which is approximately 13 miles east of the Airport. Wastewater
treatment for Airport facilities is provided by the Town of Gypsum.
General Aviation Services. Vail Valley Jet Center, LLC (as previously defined,
"VVJC"), located at the facility commonly referred to as the FBO Terminal, operates at the
Airport a fixed-base service providing general aviation users, facilities and operations pursuant
to an Amended and Restated Fixed Base Operator Concession Agreement and Lease dated as of
September 29, 2009 (as amended and supplemented, the "FBO Lease"). The initial term of the
FBO Lease expires on December 31, 2039, with an option exercisable by VVJC to renew the
FBO Lease for an additional 10 years. Pursuant to the FBO Lease, VVJC (a) provides certain
aircraft line services, aircraft airframe and engine repair and maintenance services, charter
services, aircraft rental and flight instruction services, and (b) leases at the Airport from the
County certain property on which a general aviation terminal, hangars and fuel farm is located.
Payments under the FBO Lease are not pledged to the payment of the Bonds.
Airport Management
Airport operations are accounted for in an enterprise fund of the County and the Airport
is currently managed by the County Manager under the supervision of the County Board. See
"—County Government and Management" above under this caption. The County recently hired
a new Director of Aviation, Kip Turner, which will manage the Airport under the supervision of
the County Manager and the County Board.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 59
Budget Process. The Airport's budget is prepared on the basis of modified accrual
accounting. As a fully integrated fund of the County, the Airport budget is prepared by the
Director of Aviation (or in the absence of the Director of Aviation, the County Manager) and
other employees of the County, and then submitted to the County and incorporated into its
budget as one of the County's enterprise funds. Accordingly,the Airport budget is subject to the
budgeting requirements of the State, and the related budget hearings and open public meeting
requirements of the County's budget process. The budget is ultimately approved by the County
Board. The County Board approved the Airport's operating budget for 2017 in December of
2016.
Airport Insurance. The County maintains property and general liability insurance. The
Airport maintains a comprehensive general liability insurance policy purchased through AON
Risk Services Central, Inc. with, among other coverages, an aggregate products/completed
operations limit of $100,000,000, an aggregate personal and advertising injury limit of
$50,000,000 and a limit per occurrence of $100,000,000. In addition, the County maintains
construction and builder's risk insurance for certain capital projects at the Airport.
Service Area
The Airport serves the County and surrounding areas, including Summit County,Garfield
County, Pitkin County, Routt County, and the communities of Arrowhead, Avon, Beaver Creek,
Eagle, Eagle-Vail, Edwards, and Vail. Commercial service at the Airport, however, serves
primarily destination passengers visiting the Vail, Arrowhead and Beaver Creek resorts, as well
as the ski and resort areas at Aspen, Buttermilk, Snowmass, Copper Mountain, Arapahoe Basin,
Keystone,Breckenridge and Ski Sunlight.
As of December 31, 2016, the County had an estimated permanent resident population of
53,989 representing approximately a 1.2% increase from the County's population of 53,346 in
2015. The County's economy is heavily dependent on the tourism industry, which is based in
great part on skiing and resort-based activities. For additional information relating to the County
and the skiing and resort activities located therein, which is the primary area within the service
area of the Airport, see "APPENDIX B—ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC
INFORMATION REGARDING EAGLE COUNTY."
Airport Master Plan and Capital Improvements Effecting Terminal Building
The County and the Corporation approved an updated Airport Master Plan in 2014 which
outlines a twenty year capital improvement program (from 2013 through 2032) for both the
Airport and the Terminal Building Project and other facilities and improvements financed by the
Corporation based on existing facilities, aviation activity forecasts, sustainability, and identified
future needs on all areas of the airport including terminal, airfield, and landside areas. The
Airport Master Plan was prepared by Jviation, a planning, design, and construction
administration firm headquartered in Denver, Colorado. Airport Master Plans are typically
updated every seven to ten years, or longer, based on the then current needs. The capital
improvement plans are prepared annually taking into account the Airport Master Plan.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 60
Capital Improvements Effecting Terminal Building. The Airport Master Plan
anticipates $71,000,000 (in 2013 dollars) and $91,000,000 (adjusted for 3% inflation every year
starting in 2014) in capital improvements costs for the period from 2013 through 2032. The
Airport Master Plan divides such capital improvements into three planning periods as described
below.
Capital improvements anticipated to be completed during the short term period (2013-
2017) include terminal interior renovation projects, certain road improvements projects, the
Terminal Expansion Project and the passenger boarding bridges to be funded with a combination
of available cash, revenue bonds and private third party financing for a total of approximately
$34,500,000 (as adjusted for inflation). Other than the Terminal Expansion Project and PBBs,
the Corporation does not anticipate completing other projects identified in the Airport Master
Plan for the 2013-2017 period.
Capital improvements included in the Airport Master Plan for the intermediate term
period (2018-2022) and long-term period (2023-2032) include various road and parking
improvements and further expansion of the Terminal Building. The Corporation has not recently
evaluated the timing, costs or funding sources of any of the projects included in the intermediate
and long term ranges of the Airport Master Plan.

included as Other Available Funds.
Management Discussion of Financial Information
During the period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2016, the Corporation has
experienced continued growth in both total operating revenue and operating net income. In
addition, cash held with the Trustee has also increased. Not including the income received for
the Terminal Building's in-line baggage system as a grant from the TSA in 2012, net income
increased 24% for the period from 2012 through 2016. PFC receipts have been consistent over
the same time period. As cash balances and interest rates have increased, investment income has
improved 70% from 2012 to 2016. All scheduled debt service payments of the Corporation have
been made on time.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 63
The growth in net income from $1,533,236 (adjusted, net of TSA grant funds) in 2012 to
$2,008,067 in 2016 has resulted in increases in retained earnings in each of the five years from
2012 through 2016. Retained earnings grew from $13,010,373 on January 1, 2012 to
$24,155,169 on December 31, 2016. PFC Revenue has remained steady ranging from a low of
$501,399 in 2012 to a high of$554,929 in 2016. Cash with the Trustee was $10,550,129 as of
December 31, 2016. During the five-year period debt service coverage ratio has ranged from a
low of 1.92 in 2015 to a high of 2.22 in 2016 (excluding Other Available Funds), with coverage
for 2017 estimated at 2.47 (excluding Other Available Funds).
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the total operating revenue for the Corporation
was $2,988,902 a decrease of 4% in the total operating revenues from the same period in 2016
($3,115,579). Net operating income for the Corporation also decreased 8.4% from $1,369,290 to
$1,254,056 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2017, respectively. These decreases were
due to reductions in concession and facility charge revenues as a result of lower passenger traffic
attributed to unfavorable weather and snow conditions in nearby resorts. The De-Icing facility
agreement for cost sharing with VVJC also ended in February 2017, thus reducing income.
These numbers are preliminary and unaudited and are based on the conservative estimate by the
Corporation of revenues for the six month period in 2017.
Airport Operations
General. Commercial aviation activity (including charter and scheduled airline activity)
at the Airport reaches its highest volumes from approximately December 1st through April 15th
of each year and then reaches its second-highest volumes from approximately June 1st through
September 15th of each year. In calendar year 2016, enplanements at the Airport totaled 164,671,
and three (3) major national air carriers (American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United
Airlines) and one (1) international carrier (Air Canada) provided scheduled service to the
Airport. American Airlines comprised approximately 59% of the volume of scheduled service to
the Airport over calendar year 2016.
During the winter season between December 1st and April 15th of each year (the peak
season for skiing), the Airport generally receives approximately 81% of its enplanements for the
year. During that time, the Airport provides direct service to 12 markets with 13 to 15 daily
flights using a mix of CRJ (regional jet), 737, A-319, and 757 aircrafts. During the "off season"
from late April to early June of each year, United Airlines provides one daily direct flight to
Denver, and the other Signatory Airlines provide no service. During the summer and fall months
of June through November, United Airlines offers daily non-stop service to Denver and service
to Houston twice weekly from July 2nd to September 3rd, and American Airlines offer daily
non-stop service to Dallas/Fort Worth. The Airport has experienced an overall increase in
summer traffic in recent years and it is expected that this trend will continue over time.
However, it is expected that leisure visitors in the winter season will continue to be the primary
source of air service and revenue.
Historical Passenger Traffic and Airport Operations. The total number of enplaned
passengers at the Airport ranged from approximately 168,338 to 170,718 between Fiscal Years
2012 and 2016. Enplanements totaled 107,957 from January 1, 2017 through April 30, 2017
compared to 114,690 for the same period in 2016, predominantly due to flight cancellations
DMWEST#16594819 v6 64
nearly doubling during this period of 2017 (72 flight cancellations) as compared to the same
period of 2016 (33 flight cancellations). In addition, the month of April 2016 had one (1)
additional day of commercial flight activity than April 2017 did,which resulted in a difference of
11 fewer flight departures.
Set forth below is a table showing scheduled airline enplaned passenger and aircraft
departure information since 2012.

Passenger Origins and Destinations. Since 1989, all of the enplanements at the Airport
represented originating and destination passengers. No enplanements represented connecting
passengers changing planes at the Airport.
For the 2016-17 winter season,the strongest communities of interest in terms of air travel
to the Airport (whether as origin or connecting travel) are Miami, Dallas/Fort Worth, New York
and New Jersey (John F. Kennedy and Newark airports), Houston, and Los Angeles. The
remainder of the top ten origin or connecting areas in terms of number of passengers traveling to
and from the Airport are Chicago, Atlanta, and Denver. Non-stop service to Phoenix was added
in 2016 and new non-stop service to Salt Lake City and San Francisco will be added for the
2017-2018 winter season. This would total fourteen non-stop direct markets to be served by the
Airport in the 2017-2018 winter season, up from twelve non-stop direct flight markets served in
the 2016-2017 winter season.
Airlines Serving the Airport. In addition to the airlines described above, charter airlines
provided service to the Airport on an occasional basis in 2016. The airlines serving the Airport
(excluding charter airlines)provided during this period scheduled non-stop service to twelve (12)

Terminal Building Concessions
The principal concessions of the Terminal Building Project are the rental car services,
ground transportation services and retail services, comprised of news, gift, clothing, and food
and beverage sales. The Corporation also derives revenues from advertising, telephones and
space rentals. Such concessions will generally operate under concession agreements providing
for payment to the Corporation of a percentage of gross revenue, as well as rental for leased
space. See "AIRPORT AGREEMENTS— Other Terminal Building Revenues" for additional
discussion of Terminal Building concessions.

Federal Grants
One source of federal grants benefiting the Airport is the FAA's Airport Improvement
Program (as previously defined, the "AIP") established pursuant to the Airport and Airway
Improvement Act of 1982. The AIP is administered by the FAA and funded by the Airport and
Airway Trust Fund (the "Trust Fund"). The Trust Fund is financed by aviation user taxes.
Grants are available to airport operators in the form of entitlement funds and discretionary funds.
Entitlement funds are apportioned annually based upon enplaned passengers; discretionary funds
are available at the discretion of the FAA based upon a national priority system.
In June 2017, the Federal Aviation Administration Reauthorization Act of 2017 (S.B.
1405), which proposes to provide funding for the FAA and its programs (including the AlP)
through fiscal year 2021, was introduced to Congress, and is expected to be considered prior to
the September 30 expiration of the 2016 Reauthorization Act. This bill proposes to increase AIP
funding to $3.75 billion for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2021. Additionally, in late July of
2017, the Senate Appropriations Committee approved the fiscal year 2018 annual appropriations
bill for the U.S. Department of Transportation, which is expected to be considered sometimes in
September of 2017. This bill increases the AIP funding to$3.6 billion.
The County has received substantial federal funds through AIP grants in the past for
Airport improvement projects. Since 2012, approximately$35,000,000 in federal grants has been
received by the County. The proceeds of these federal grants have been used for air carrier apron
construction, a Snow Removal Equipment Facility, runway and taxiway maintenance, and
general aviation infrastructure at the Airport. It is uncertain whether or at what level such AlP
funding will be available in the future. Proceeds from federal grants are not included in the
definition of Project Revenues and therefore are not pledged to the payment of the Bonds.
DMWEST#16594819 v6 67
REPORT OF THE AIRPORT CONSULTANT
The Report of the Airport Consultant prepared in connection with the issuance of the
Series 2017 Bonds is attached in APPENDIX A. The Report was undertaken to evaluate the
ability of the Corporation to generate sufficient revenues to pay operating expenses, working
capital needs, other capital project costs (including the costs of the Terminal Expansion Project)
and other financing requirements, including the debt service requirements of the Corporation's
proposed issuance of the Series 2017 Bonds along with the debt service requirements of the
Corporation's outstanding Series 2011A Bonds. The period of evaluation of the Report is the
Corporation's fiscal years ended December 31,2017 through December 31,2023.
The Report is based on preliminary estimated information and will not be updated to
reflect the final terms of the Series 2017 Bonds. The Report was based on a number of
assumptions and contains projections and statements relating to operating and financial results
that may not be realized. The assumptions used reflect the best information available to the
Corporation and the County and reliance on the knowledge and experience of the Airport
Consultant. The Corporation's future operating and financial performance, however, may vary
from the projections and such variances may be material. Among other things, the Report
assumes (i) airline traffic demand at the Airport will remain level through the end of the
projection period of 2023 (see "FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Airport Operations—
Historical Passenger Traffic and Airport Operations" and "TABLE 4—Eagle County Regional
Airport Historical Scheduled Airline Passenger Traffic 2012-2017"), (ii) all Signatory Airlines
will extend and continue to operate under their Terminal Building Leases through the end of the
projection period of 2023 on terms and conditions, including rental amounts, that are
substantially similar to the current Terminal Building Leases, and (iii) the rental car companies
currently serving the Airport will extend their concession agreements with the Corporation
through the end of the projection period with agreement provisions, minimum annual guarantees
and rental amount requirements that are substantially similar to the current agreements. See
"AIRPORT AGREEMENTS—Terminal Building Leases."
Regulatory and other restrictions may adversely affect the ability of the Corporation to
achieve the projections in the Report. See "CERTAIN INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS -
Regulations and Restrictions Affecting the Airport."
The Report, among other things, includes a projection of the Corporation's debt service
coverage ratio (based on a maximum annual debt service on the Bonds)for the period from 2017
through 2023, which is forecast to increase from 1.99x in 2017 to 2.28x in 2023. See
APPENDIX A. The calculation of the operations and maintenance expenses exclude annual rent
payable under the Ground Leases and the management fees due to the County under the
Terminal Building Management Agreement because, pursuant to such agreements, rent and
management fees will be payable once a year in each May (not earlier than May 2) after
principal and interest payments on the Bonds have been made on the immediately preceding May
1, all required deposits into the Debt Service Reserve Fund have been made and the Capital Fund
is funded in the amount of the Minimal Capital Fund Balance. In addition, the calculation of the
projected debt service coverage ratio during this period in the Report is based on the assumption
that Other Available Funds will not be needed for purposes of calculating Corporation's
revenues available to pay Debt Service on the Bonds. The Indenture permits the Corporation to
DMWEST#16594819 v6 68
use Other Available Funds to pay the Debt Service and to include Other Available Funds in the
calculation of the debt service coverage ratio. Under the Indenture, Other Available Funds is
generally an amount determined appropriate by the Corporation to be transferred from the
Capital Fund to the Revenue Fund for the foregoing purposes, provided that the Minimum
Capital Fund Balance ($346,000) or portion thereof available in the Capital fund, is to be
considered as Other Available Funds without the transfer to the Revenue Fund. The Report
projects an increase of Other Available Funds during the forecast period, from $7,512,238 in
2017 to $14,290,350 in 2023. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE
SERIES 2017 BONDS—Rate Maintenance Covenant" and APPENDIX C for a more detailed
discussion of the debt service coverage ratio calculation.
The Report has been included herein in reliance upon the knowledge and experience of
Leibowitz & Horton Airport Management Consultants, Inc. as the Airport Consultant. As noted
in the Report, any forecast is subject to uncertainties. Therefore, there are likely to be
differences between forecast and actual results, and those differences may be material.
STATE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
At the general election held November 3, 1992, the voters of the State approved an
amendment (the "Amendment") to the Colorado Constitution limiting the ability of the State
and local governments to increase revenues, debt and spending and restricting property taxes,
income taxes and other taxes. The Amendment excludes from its restrictions the borrowings and
fiscal operations of "enterprises," which term is defined to include government-owned
businesses authorized to issue their own revenue bonds and receiving under 10% of their
revenues in grants from all State and local governments combined.
The County considers the Corporation an "enterprise" within the meaning of the
Amendment, with the authority to issue its own bonds payable solely from the Project Revenues.
The Project is owned by the Corporation and operated as a self-sustaining business activity. The
Corporation is not authorized to levy any taxes.
VERIFICATION AGENT
Causey Demgen & Moore, Inc., Denver, Colorado will deliver to the Corporation its
report indicating that it has examined, in accordance with the standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the mathematical accuracy of the
mathematical computations of the adequacy of the deposit of proceeds of the Series 2017A
Bonds under the Refunding Agreement to redeem the Refunded Bonds at the redemption price to
the redemption date,which is expected to be ,2017.
LITIGATION
In connection with the issuance of the Series 2017 Bonds, the Corporation will certify
that it is not a party to any pending material litigation that would adversely affect its ability to
finance or build the Terminal Expansion Project, to own the Project or perform its obligations
under the agreements executed in connection with the Project or the Series 2017 Bonds, and that
it is not aware of any threats of such litigation. There are no legal proceedings of which the
Corporation or the County has received written notice now pending or, to the best of the
DMWEST#16594819 v6 69
Corporation's or County's knowledge, threatened which contests or affects any federal grants or
PFCs awarded to or held by the County or the Corporation's or County's use of such funds.
CONSENT TO THE INDENTURE
By purchasing the Series 2017 Bonds, the purchasers thereof are deemed to have
consented to the amendment and restatement of the Original Indenture pursuant to the terms of
the Indenture as of the date of issuance of the Series 2017 Bonds. The consent of purchasers of
the Series 2017 Bonds will be counted in full toward the satisfaction of the requirement
contained in the Original Indenture (pursuant to which the Series 2011A Bonds and other prior
Bonds of the Corporation were originally issued) that prior written consent of owners of at least
66 2/3% in principal amount of the bonds of the Corporation then outstanding be obtained for
amendments to such Original Indenture to come into effect.
RATING
Moody's Rating Service ("Moody's") has assigned to the Series 2017 Bonds the rating
set forth on the cover page of this Official Statement.No other ratings have been applied for.
A rating reflects only the views of the rating agency assigning such rating, and an
explanation of the significance of, and methodology with respect to, such rating may be obtained
from each such rating agency. The Corporation has furnished to Moody's certain information
and materials relating to the Series 2017 Bonds, the Corporation, the Airport, and its financial
condition and operations, including certain information and materials which have not been
included in this Official Statement. Generally, Moody's and other rating agencies base their
ratings on such information and materials and on investigations, studies and assumptions by the
rating agencies. There is no assurance that Moody's ratings will continue for any given period of
time or that such ratings will not be revised downward, suspended or withdrawn entirely by
Moody's if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision, suspension
or withdrawal of Moody's rating may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Series
2017 Bonds. The Corporation does not undertake any responsibility to oppose any such revision,
suspension or withdrawal.

TAX MATTERS
Federal Law
In the opinion of Ballard Spahr LLP, Bond Counsel, under existing law, as presently
enacted and construed, interest on the Series 2017 Bonds is excludable from gross income for
federal income tax purposes, assuming the accuracy of certifications of the Corporation and the
County and assuming continuing compliance by the Corporation and the County with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), except that
interest on any Series 2017 Bond shall not be excluded while held by a substantial user of the
facilities financed or refinanced with the Series 2017 Bonds or a related person as provided in the
Internal Revenue Code. Interest on the Series 2017 Bonds will be a specific tax preference item
for purposes of determining individual and corporate federal alternative minimum tax. Bond
Counsel will express no opinion regarding other federal tax consequences of ownership or
disposition of, or the accrual or receipt of interest on,the Series 2017 Bonds.
The Code establishes requirements that must be complied with subsequent to the issuance
of the Series 2017 Bonds for interest thereon to be and remain excludable from gross income
pursuant to Section 103 of the Code. Failure to comply with these requirements could cause the
interest on the Series 2017 Bonds to be included in gross income, retroactive to the date of issue
of the Series 2017 Bonds or at some later date. The requirements include, but are not limited to,
(1) the provisions of Section 148 of the Code which prescribes yield and other limits within
which the proceeds of the Series 2017 Bonds are to be invested and may require that certain
investment earnings on the foregoing be rebated on a periodic basis to the United States, (2) use
of the proceeds of the Series 2017 Bonds, and (3) use of the facilities financed with the Series
2017 Bonds. The Corporation and the County have covenanted to comply with the provisions of
the Code.
Original Issue Discount. The Series 2017 Bonds being offered at a discount ("original
issue discount") equal generally to the difference between the public offering price and the
principal amount are referred to herein as the "Discount Bonds". For federal income tax
purposes, original issue discount on a Discount Bond accrues periodically over the term of such
Discount Bond as interest which is excluded from the gross income for federal income tax
purposes and subject to alternative minimum tax to the same extent as regular interest. The
accrual of original issue discount increases the holder's tax basis in the Series 2017 Bonds for
determining taxable gain or loss upon sale or redemption prior to maturity. Holders should
consult their tax advisors for an explanation of the accrual rules.
Original Issue Premium. The Series 2017 Bonds being offered at a premium ("original
issue premium") equal generally to the excess of their public offering price over their principal
DMWEST#16594819 v6 71
amount are referred to herein as the "Premium Bonds". For federal income tax purposes,
original issue premium is amortizable periodically over the terms of the Premium Bond through
reductions in the holder's tax basis for such Premium Bond for determining taxable gain or loss
upon sale or redemption prior to maturity. Amortization of premium does not create a deductible
expense or loss. Holders should consult their tax advisors for an explanation of the amortization
rules.
State of Colorado Law
To the extent interest on the Series 2017 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal
income tax purposes, such interest is not subject to income taxation by the State of Colorado. No
opinion will be expressed regarding other State or local tax consequences arising with respect to
the Series 2017 Bonds, including whether interest on the Series 2017 Bonds is exempt from
taxation under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Colorado.
Changes in Federal and State Tax Law
From time to time, there are Presidential proposals, proposals of various federal
committees, and legislative proposals in the Congress and in the states that, if enacted, could
alter or amend the federal and state tax matters referred to herein or adversely affect the
marketability or market value of the Series 2017 Bonds or otherwise prevent holders of the
Series 2017 Bonds from realizing the full benefit of the tax exemption of interest on the Series
2017 Bonds. Further, such proposals may impact the marketability or market value of the Series
2017 Bonds simply by being proposed. It cannot be predicted whether or in what form any such
proposal might be enacted or whether if enacted it would apply to bonds issued prior to
enactment. In addition, regulatory actions are from time to time announced or proposed and
litigation is threatened or commenced which, if implemented or concluded in a particular
manner, could adversely affect the market value, marketability or tax status of the Series 2017
Bonds. It cannot be predicted whether any such regulatory action will be implemented, how any
particular litigation or judicial action will be resolved, or whether the Series 2017 Bonds would
be impacted thereby.
Purchasers of the Series 2017 Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding any
pending or proposed legislation, regulatory initiatives or litigation. The opinions expressed by
Bond Counsel are based upon existing legislation and regulations as interpreted by relevant
judicial and regulatory authorities as of the date of issuance and delivery of the Series 2017
Bonds, and Bond Counsel has expressed no opinion as of any date subsequent thereto or with
respect to any proposed or pending legislation, regulatory initiatives or litigation.
The proposed form of Bond Counsel's approving opinion is attached hereto as Appendix
E.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the Series 2017 Bonds and certain other legal matters are subject to the
approving opinion of Ballard Spahr LLP, Denver, Colorado, Bond Counsel to the Corporation.
The substantially final text of the Bond Counsel opinion is contained in APPENDIX E hereto.
The opinion of Bond Counsel will be limited to matters related to authorization and validity of
DMWEST#16594819 v6 72
the Series 2017 Bonds and to the status of interest thereon as described in "TAX MATTERS."
Bond Counsel has not been engaged to investigate the financial resources of the Corporation or
its ability to provide for payment of the Series 2017 Bonds, and the opinion of Bond Counsel
will make no statement as to such matters or as to the accuracy or completeness of this Official
Statement or any other information that may be relied on by anyone in making the decision to
purchase Series 2017 Bonds. Ballard Spahr LLP has also acted as special counsel to the
Corporation in connection with the preparation of this Official Statement. Certain legal matters
will be passed upon for the County by Bryan Treu, Esq., County Attorney. Stradling Yocca
Carlson & Rauth, P.C., Denver, Colorado, has served as counsel to the Underwriter in
connection with the offer and sale of the Series 2017 Bonds.

The following two tables reflect Median Household Effective Buying Income ("EBI") and also
the percentage of households by EBI Groups. EBI is defined as "money income" (defined below) less
personal tax and nontax payments. "Money income"is defined as the aggregate of wages and salaries,net
farm and nonfarm self-employment income, interest, dividends, net rental and royalty income, Social
Security and railroad retirement income,other retirement and disability income,public assistance income,
unemployment compensation, Veteran Administration payments, alimony and child support, military
family allotments, net winnings from gambling, and other periodic income. Deductions are made for
personal income taxes (federal, state and local), personal contributions to social insurance (Social
Security and federal retirement payroll deductions), and taxes on owner-occupied nonbusiness real estate.
The resulting figure is known as"disposable"or"after-tax"income.

Recreation and Tourism
Year-round tourism and skiing-related businesses account for a significant portion of the
employment and earned income of area residents. Vail Resorts is the largest employer in the County.
The Ski Industry in the State. According to Colorado Ski Country USA ("CSCUSA"), a ski
industry group, Colorado sees approximately 20% of U.S. skier visits annually. In June 2017, CSCUSA
reported that visits at its 22 member ski areas totaled 7.3 million,representing a 6% increase in visitation
over CSCUSA's five-year average and marking the fourth consecutive year that skier visits at CSCUSA
resorts have outperformed such five-year average. Skier visits represent one person visiting a ski area for
all or any part of a day or night for the purpose of skiing or snowboarding.
One indicator of a significant ski industry is its economic impact. Research commissioned by
CSCUSA and Vail Resorts in 2015 found that Colorado's ski industry generates a $4.8 billion annual
economic impact, comprising a significant portion of the state's tourism and recreation sectors and
supporting a sizeable share of the employment and tax base in Colorado's mountainous regions. In
addition to the 500,000 Coloradans who skied during the 2013-14 season, more than seven million skier
visits were generated by skiers and snowboarders from around the United States and the world. These
guests on average spend more than$300 per skier visit,including the cost of more than 8.4 million nights
in lodging accommodations. The Colorado ski industry's economic impact extends beyond resort
communities. During the 2013-14 ski season, skiers and snowboarders accounted for 588,000
deplanements at Denver International Airport, or 8 percent of all non-connecting arrivals to Denver
International Airport in that period.
The Ski Industry in the Vail Valley. According to Vail Resort's most recent 10-K dated
September 26,2016,Vail Mountain Ski Resort("Vail Mountain")was the second-most visited mountain
resort in the United States for the 2015-2016 ski season, while Beaver Creek Ski Resort ("Beaver
Creek") was the seventh most visited mountain resort in the United States for the 2015-2016 ski season.
Both Vail Mountain and Beaver Creek are located within the County and served by the Airport. Based on
data made available by Vail Resorts for its 2007-2008 season through its 2010-2011 season (which
information is no longer made publicly available by Vail Resorts), Vail Mountain averaged 1,634,250
visitors annually while Beaver Creek averaged 919,000 skier visits during such period. National rankings
based on most skier visits in the United States for each of Vail Mountain and Beaver Creek from the
2011-2012 ski season to the 2015-2016 ski season are listed below.

Current Significant Development Projects. The Town of Vail is currently undergoing many hotel
and condominium renovations. One of the largest hotels in Vail,the Vail Cascade Resort& Spa was sold
to new owners and, after undergoing a more than $50 million renovation, reopened in early 2017 as the
Hotel Talisa. The project included a complete renewal of guest rooms, creation of a new fine dining
restaurant, a new lounge and bar area featuring live music, a luxury ski concierge and valet, and new
retail outlets. A new Marriott Residence Inn has been proposed for the site of the old Roost Lodge in
West Vail. As proposed, the new hotel would have 170 rooms, 113 deed-restricted apartments and 360

Lion Residences, which opened for sales in early 2017, added 65 luxury condominiums to the town's
inventory on the site of the former Lionshead Inn and the Best Western VailGlo Lodge.
In 2014,the U.S. Forest Service approved the $25 million Epic Discovery plan proposed by Vail
Resorts to install ziplines and aerial bridges in Game Creek Bowl and on the front side of the 5,200-acre
ski area for use in summer and winter, to develop more hiking and cross-country and downhill mountain
biking trails,and to build an adventure park with a 3,700-foot"forest flyer"alpine coaster,for use in both

Purchases of Series 2017 Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through
Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership
interest of each Beneficial Owner is in turn recorded on the records of Direct and Indirect
Participants. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their
purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing
details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or
Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers
of ownership interests in the Series 2017 Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the
books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial
Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Series
2011Bonds except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Series 2017 Bonds is
discontinued.
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Series 2017 Bonds deposited by Direct Participants
with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co. or such other
name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Series 2017
Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee
do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial
Owners of the Series 2017 Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct
Participants to whose accounts such Series 2017 Bonds are credited, which may or may not be
the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping
account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by
Direct Participants to Indirect Participants and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to
Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or
regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Series 2017
Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of
significant events with respect to the Series 2017 Bonds, such as redemptions, defaults and
proposed amendments to the Indenture. For example, Beneficial Owners of Series 2017 Bonds
may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Series 2017 Bonds for their benefit has
agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners
may wish to provide their names and addresses to the Registrar and request that copies of the
notices be provided directly to them.
Redemption notices will be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Series 2017 Bonds are
being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct
Participant in such maturity to be redeemed.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor such other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with
respect to the Series 2017 Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with
DTC's MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the issuer
DMWEST#16594819 v6 G-2
as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede &Co.'s consenting or
voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Series 2017 Bonds are credited
on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
Payments with respect to the Series 2017 Bonds will be made to Cede & Co. or such
other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to
credit Direct Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail
information from the Corporation or the Trustee on the payable date in accordance with their
respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners
will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities
held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the
responsibility of such Participants and not of DTC, the Trustee or the Corporation, subject to any
statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payments with respect
to the Series 2017 Bonds to Cede & Co., or to such other nominee as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC, is the responsibility of the Corporation or the Trustee,
disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants is the responsibility of DTC and
disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners is the responsibility of Direct and
Indirect Participants.
DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the
Series 2017 Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Corporation. Under such
circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained, Series 2017
Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered as provided in the Indenture.
The Corporation may at any time decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-
only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository) with respect to the Series 2017
Bonds. In that event, Series 2017 Bond certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.
