$450M new money bond issue
 •   Staff requests board vote to accelerate new money bond sale
     o Ultra low interest rates
     o Significant unmet demand based on unfulfilled orders
     o AA bond rating affirmed
     o Bond documents complete
     o Previous target to close June 2021

 •   New money revenue bonds will finance:
     o Terminal E Modernization (4 new gates)              $350M (AMT)
     o Terminal B to C Connector & Optimization            $40M (AMT)

Terminal E Modernization debt structure considerations

   • COVID‐19 pandemic, new virus variants, and travel restrictions constraining
      Terminal E passenger recovery
   • Flexibility needed to structure debt payments and airline rates to align with
      passenger recovery curve
   • Early use of Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) revenues is being considered to
      assist in keeping airline rate amortization competitive

   • Other considerations to lower project annual amortization costs:
       o Maximize interest rate capitalization period
       o Interest payments only for defined period (recovery)
       o Establish bond refunding reserve to manage airline rates
       o Extending maturity length
   • Flexible repayment provisions expected to increase carrying costs by 4% of
      par, or $17M NPV, over maturity period (30 years)

                                                                                                12

ACI‐NA has released a report on the future cost of the pandemic
to airports
       ACI‐NA Forecast on Cost of Pandemic
• ACI‐NA released projections that show U.S. airports
  will lose at least $17B between April 2021 and March
  2022 because of the prolonged decline in commercial
  aviation traffic resulting from the COVID‐19 pandemic
• These losses are in addition to the $23B airports are
  expected to lose between March 2020 and March 2021
• The latest loss estimate is based on the following
  estimates:
      o $11.4B in lost airport operating revenue

      o $3.5B for additional operational and infrastructure costs
        related to COVID‐19
      o $1.6B from lost Passenger Facility Charge (PFC)

      o $500M from lost Customer Facility Charge user fees

• Additionally, airports must pay approximately $16B to
  service that debt for their 2020 and 2021 fiscal years,
  which will constrain airports’ ability to fund capacity
  improvements to plan for long‐term future growth

                                                                                                        25

New England Patriots fly 76 healthcare workers out of Logan
Airport to Super Bowl to honor their hard work and commitment

                                           • Health care workers were celebrated at a short

                                           • The Patriots plane was last at Logan Airport when

                                             to help fly much‐needed personal protective

International: HNA Group’s bankruptcy may impact Hainan
Airlines and its restoration of Logan's nonstop service to China

                                             HNA Group Bankruptcy
                                             • Chinese conglomerate HNA Group Co. has been
                                                placed into bankruptcy and restructuring

                                             • HNA Group is the parent company of Hainan
                                                Airlines, which operates flights to Beijing and
                                                Shanghai out of Logan Airport
                                                    o Currently, Hainan has suspended all service out of
                                                      Logan due to the pandemic

                                             • For the time being, Hainan Airlines has said it is
                                                maintaining its usual operations

                                             • The HNA Group said it would spend this year
                                                negotiating to bring in strategic investors

                                             • It is expected that there will be strong interest in
                                                Hainan despite the bankruptcy and its current
                                                financial challenges and that ultimately Hainan may
                                                change ownership

Certain Boeing 777s have been grounded and are being inspected
due to an engine failure on a United flight from Denver to Hawaii
Incident
• On February 20, a United Airlines flight from Denver to
   Hawaii suffered engine failure soon after takeoff
• The engine that failed on the 26‐year‐old Boeing 777 was a
   Pratt & Whitney 4000 used on 128 planes, or less than 10%
   of the global fleet
• The FAA has now announced an emergency airworthiness
   directive that would require immediate or stepped‐up
   inspections of these engines
• An initial examination by the NTSB has shown that two
   engine fan blades were fractured and that the damage is
   consistent with metal fatigue

Aircraft Groundings
• Boeing has told airlines to stop flying its 777 with Pratt &
   Whitney engines until the FAA identifies the appropriate
   inspection protocol
• U.K. has banned these aircraft from its airspace
• United has grounded its 28 aircraft
• Japan Airlines has grounded its 13 aircraft
• Korean Air has grounded its 6 aircraft

Heavy supply chain congestion, combined with 100% load factors
will create challenges for the port until Fall 2021
1. Schedule integrity has fallen apart                                            Arrive Charleston
      o Port of Boston has a 17% on time arrival in 2021

2. Ships are being idled to "catch the system up"
      o The current round of de‐facto blank sailings could be
         the first of several corrections that carriers and alliances
         may have to make in the coming months
      o 3 of 8 ships due to arrive in February will not call Boston                 Depart Charleston
3. Empty containers are a premium in Asia, limiting
   exports to U.S.
      o Demand for containers outstripping supply

4. Load factors are at 100% for the foreseeable future
      o Freight rates up 145% from Jan 2020

      o Space on ships is at a premium                                      capacity departing Charleston
5. Crane heights in Boston limit the full loading of ships
                                                                        •   Approximately 275 containers @ $4500

      o Full exports/empties are being limited from Boston

factors and revenue for shipping lines calling the port

On February 11, the FAA briefed the Massport CAC on the
results of its National Noise Annoyance Survey
                                                                         FAA Presentation on

Massport CAC feedback:
    • Believe that the study should lead to
      policy changes including focusing on
      lower noise levels for mitigation

    • Level of disappointment that Boston
      Logan wasn’t included in the 20 airports
      surveyed (FAA used Logan to help design
      the survey)

    • Strong feeling that navigational tools like
      RNAV should be looked at airport by
      airport and not be used nationally
