Arena events shall be scheduled according to the requirements outlined below and as defined under the terms of a Master Use Permit decision for the project, if approved, in order to avoid conflicts between egress and ingress of different events at different facilities. Under Section 21 of the MOU, ArenaCo is required to coordinate with the Seattle Mariners, the Seattle Sounders and the Seattle Seahawks, as well as the Washington State Public Stadium Authority (CenturyLink Field) and the Washington State Major League Baseball Stadium Public Facilities District (Safeco Field), to minimize the number of conflicting and overlapping events held at the existing stadiums and the proposed Arena. Event scheduling at the Arena shall comply with the following:  Events at the Arena on any non-holiday weekday or weeknight shall be separated from other events at the Arena by a minimum of 3 hours between the projected end time of one event and the scheduled start time of the next event.  No Arena event on any non-holiday weekday or weeknight may be scheduled to begin or end within one hour of the scheduled start or end time of any event at Safeco Field or CenturyLink Field, or both, if 1) the reasonably anticipated attendance at the Arena and one or more of those fields is more than 45,000 attendees, or 2) there would otherwise be three scheduled events starting or ending within an hour of each other at the Arena, Safeco Field or CenturyLink Field. Page 8 Full Council Meeting Minutes May 2, 2016  No Arena event shall start between 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm on non-holiday weekdays if 1) the reasonably anticipated attendance at Safeco Field, CenturyLink Field, and the Arena would exceed 15,000 persons, and 2) the Arena event is otherwise scheduled to occur within an hour of the start or end times of events at Safeco Field or CenturyLink or both.  These scheduling requirements may be reviewed and revised by the Seattle Department of Transportation and Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections, after consultation with Safeco Field, CenturyLink Field, and the Port of Seattle, if additional means of limiting transportation impacts are provided. There will be no exceptions from the combined attendance levels for concurrent or overlapping weekday events involving Arena events. Amendments to the scheduling requirements may take into account playoff schedules for MLB/MLS/NBA/ NFL/NHL/WNBA games; and  These scheduling requirements shall be incorporated in the MUP decision for the project, if approved. 10. Both Safeco Field and CenturyLink Field currently operate in the Stadium District Overlay area. The Operators of those facilities (defined below) are party to an existing event scheduling agreement designed to minimize conflicts between events at their respective facilities. The Arena, if approved and constructed, will bring an additional event venue to this area. Arena events shall be scheduled according to the requirements outlined below in order to minimize overlapping events and to avoid conflicts between egress and ingress of same-day events at the several facilities. Under Section 21 of the MOU, ArenaCo is required to coordinate with the Seattle Mariners, the Seattle Sounders and the Seattle Seahawks, as well as the Washington State Public Stadium Authority ("PSA", the owner of CenturyLink Field) and the Washington State Major League Baseball Stadium Public Facilities District ("PFD", the owner of Safeco Field), to minimize the number of conflicting and overlapping events held at the existing stadiums and the proposed Arena. Event scheduling at the Arena shall comply with the following: 1. The Arena may schedule events, sporting or otherwise, of up to 5,000 attendees (cumulative total, if multiple smaller events at the Arena overlap) without regard to the Page 9 Full Council Meeting Minutes May 2, 2016 scheduling requirements herein. 2. No Major Event at the Arena may start between 4pm and 7pm on a Weekday. The Seattle Department of Transportation may grant exceptions if required for playoffs or “premier” events (national or international), such as an All-Star Game, NCAA tournament game, etc., or otherwise up to three times per year if there are no Overlapping or Sequential Events at another venue. 3. No Major Event may occur at the Arena at any time where the Arena Major Event would overlap with both a Major Event at Safeco Field and a Major Event at CenturyLink Field, if the reasonably anticipated combined attendance at the Arena, Safeco Field and CenturyLink Field would exceed 45,000 attendees if on a Weekday and 55,000 attendees if on a Weekend. If the Arena has a Major Event that overlaps with Major Events at both Safeco Field and CenturyLink Field and is permissible because combined attendance is below these limits, the Arena will coordinate with the Operators of the other venues and with the City of Seattle on a traffic plan to manage the traffic flow in the best way possible. 4. Additional Rules for NBA Games: a. For pre-season games: No NBA pre-season game may be scheduled as an Overlapping Event with an MLB, NFL or MLS regular season or post-season home game at either CenturyLink Field or Safeco Field if the reasonably anticipated combined attendance at the several venues involved would exceed 45,000 on a Weekday, or 55,000 on a Weekend. b. For regular season games: i. No NBA regular season game may be scheduled as an Overlapping Event with (w) any Seahawks home game, (x) the Mariners' season home opener, (y) any Sounder’s home game with an anticipated attendance of 45,000 or greater on a Weekday or Page 10 Full Council Meeting Minutes May 2, 2016 55,000 or greater on a Weekend, or (z) any other Major Event at CenturyLink Field with an anticipated attendance of 45,000 or greater on a Weekday, or 55,000 or greater on a Weekend. ii. The Arena will make best efforts working with the NBA to avoid scheduling regular season home games as Overlapping Events with Mariners or Sounders home games or Major Events at CenturyLink Field (other than those specifically prohibited in 4.b.i above), recognizing that this may not be possible in all instances. To assist this, the Operator of Safeco Field and the Operator of CenturyLink Field will be asked to provide the Arena with a draft schedule as soon as it is reasonably reliable. In addition, the Arena shall provide the Operator of Safeco Field and the Operator of CenturyLink Field with a draft schedule as soon as it is reasonably reliable. The operators of the three venues are encouraged to coordinate on schedule setting. If the Arena is unable to avoid scheduling an Overlapping Event, the NBA game will start at least one hour after the start time of the Mariners or Sounders game or other Major Event at CenturyLink Field, and the Arena and the Operator of the venue involved will work together with the City of Seattle on a traffic plan to manage the dual event in the best way possible. The one-hour start time delay may be reduced to 30 minutes if mutually agreeable to the Operators of the venues involved, and approved by the City of Seattle. c. For playoff games: It is assumed that NBA playoff games cannot be changed or rescheduled, and will proceed as the NBA dictates. If an Overlapping Event is unavoidable, the Arena will work together with the Operator of the venue involved and the City of Seattle on a traffic plan to manage the dual event in the best way possible. Staggered start times of at least one hour will be required, but may be reduced to 30 minutes if mutually agreeable to the Operators of the venues Page 11 Full Council Meeting Minutes May 2, 2016 involved, and approved by the City of Seattle. 5. Additional Rules for Events Other than NBA Games: a. On a Weekday, an Arena Major Event (excluding NBA games, which are addressed in Section 4 above) cannot be scheduled as an Overlapping Event with a Major Event at Safeco Field or a Major Event at CenturyLink Field if the reasonably anticipated combined attendance at the venues involved would exceed 45,000. b. On a Weekend, an Arena Major Event (excluding NBA games, which are addressed in Section 4 above) cannot be scheduled as an Overlapping Event with a Major Event at Safeco Field or a Major Event at CenturyLink Field if the reasonably anticipated combined attendance at the venues involved would exceed 55,000. c. If the Operators of CenturyLink Field and Safeco Field provide the Arena with a schedule of non-sport Major Events at their respective venues at least 90 days in advance of such events, the Arena will make best efforts to avoid scheduling Major Events at the Arena as Overlapping Events with the identified events at Safeco Field or CenturyLink Field. 6. In the case of Sequential Events, the Arena shall ensure it allows at least 3 hours between the projected end of the first event and the scheduled start time of the second event. 7. If the Arena becomes the host venue for a professional sports team other than an NBA team, the Additional Rules for Events Other than NBA Games shall apply until such time as the Arena can reach a mutually agreeable revision to these scheduling requirements with the Operators of CenturyLink Field and Safeco Field. 8. Definitions Used: a. CenturyLink Field: CenturyLink Field and Event Center, including the WAMU Theatre. Page 12 Full Council Meeting Minutes May 2, 2016 b.

Overlaps occur when the scheduled start time of one event is prior to the projected end time of another event. f. Sequential Event: an Arena Major Event that occurs on the same day, but not overlapping in time, with a Major Event at Safeco Field or Major Event at CenturyLink Field. g. Weekday: Monday through Friday, not including Seattle city holidays. h. Weekend: Saturday, Sunday or Seattle city holidays. These scheduling requirements shall be incorporated in the MUP decision for the project, if approved. The Arena and the other teams and venues are encouraged to enter into further scheduling agreements that adopt and provide further detail to implement these requirements. The Seattle Department of Transportation may, from time to time, approve exceptions to these requirements for individual events if agreeable to Petitioner and to the Operators of CenturyLink Field and Safeco Field. Page 13 Full Council Meeting Minutes May 2, 2016 These requirements may only be modified if agreeable to Petitioner and to the Operators of CenturyLink Field and Safeco Field, and approved by the Seattle Department of Transportation and Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections. *** ACTION 2: Motion was made by Councilmember Burgess, duly seconded and carried, to amend Condition 18 as shown in the underlined and strike through language below: *** 18.
