Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On November 15, 2016, Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (the “Company”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”), entered into a lease agreement (the “Lease”) with the Department of Transportation of the State of Hawaii (“DOTA”) to lease a cargo and maintenance hangar at the Honolulu International Airport (the “Hangar”). The Lease term (the “Term”) is 35 years, with an effective commencement date of the Term of November 1, 2016 (the “Commencement Date”).
The Hangar is under construction and, pursuant to the Lease, the Company will assume responsibility for completing construction of the Hangar, subject to various terms, conditions and limitations as set forth in the Lease. The anticipated cost to the Company to complete construction of the Hangar is approximately $28 million. The construction of the Hangar is expected to be completed in mid-2017.
Under the Lease, the Company’s rental obligation will consist of Ground Rent, Building Rent and Apron Rent. The Ground Rent will be approximately $2.16 million per year for the first five years of the Term and is subject to an increase of 15% every five years for the second and third five-year periods, after which the Ground Rent will be equal to the fair market rental value as determined by appraisal. The Building Rent is expected to be approximately $1.53 million for the first year of the Term, subject to credit adjustments in consideration of the Company’s completion of the Hangar. The credit adjustments are expected to reduce Building Rent over the subsequent 17 years. There will be no Building Rent for the last 5 years of the Term. The Apron Rent will be approximately $700,000 per year for the first thirty years of the Term, after which there will be no Apron Rent. The Lease provides that for the first year of the Term, the Ground Rent, Building Rent and Apron Rent will be waived as additional consideration for the Company’s completion of the Hangar.
The foregoing description of the Lease does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Lease, which will be filed as an exhibit to Holding’s Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.
