C. Whitworth, City Administrato �t9 RE: Assignment of 2970 E. 50`hStreet lease Background The City of Vernon (City) owns the property located at 2970 East 50`h Street and is currently leasing approximately 2.5 acres of land and building to Union Ice. Ltd. (Union Ice), a subsidiary of Arctic Glacier, under an amended lease agreement adopted by Resolution No. 8866 on August 24, 2005. Union Ice currently pays $10,359.62 a month and is current on their lease. On June 12, 2012 the City received a correspondence from Arctic Glacier, stating the company had commenced Court -supervised restructuring proceedings in Canada and sold their business and assets to H.I.G. Zamboni. The letter further states that H.I.G. Zamboni intends to continue operating the business at 2970. E. 50th Street and would continue to perform the obligations under the current lease agreement. (See Exhibit A) To continue performing the obligations under the current lease, H.I.G Zamboni is requesting the City agree to assign the lease agreement to H.I.G. Zamboni. (See Exhibit B) Recommendation It is recommended that the City Council consent to assigning the lease agreement to H.I.G. Zamboni. EXHIBIT A ARCTfC GLACIER iNC. 625limyAvenm, WkWpet, Meuig6h 83A'OVI Ron: 204,783.9857 June 12, 2012 Via Courier City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Avenue Vernon California 90058 Dear Sir or Madam: Re: 2970 E. 50th Street A few months ago, Arctic Glacier commenced Court -supervised restructuring proceedings in Canada, which have been recognized and enforced in the United States. As part of that process, Arctic conducted an extensive sale and investor solicitation process to find a buyer or investor for the business. We have just completed that process and we are writing to announce our selection of H.I.G. Zamboni (which is related to H.I.G. Capital) from amongst the bidders who participated in the process to acquire or invest in the Arctic Glacier business. H.I.G. Capital is a prominent private equity investment fund based in Miami, Florida. We are extremely pleased with this transaction, which we think will be welcomed by all of Arctic Glacier's stakeholder groups. It is important for you to know that H.I.G. Zamboni is purchasing all of Arctic's business and hiring all of Arctic's employees and its management group. The business will continue uninterrupted following the closing which is presently scheduled to happen before July 313` and you will continue to deal with the same regional manager as you are currently. To be very clear, H.I.G. Zamboni intends to continue operating the business from the premises referenced above and to perform the obligations under the existing lease. Since the business and assets will be owned by H.I.G. Zamboni following the close of the transaction rather than by Arctic Glacier, we are requesting your consent to the assignment of your lease from Arctic to H.I.G. Zamboni or one of its affiliates. The terms of the consent are straightforward and are set out in the consent attached. Should you or your lawyer have any questions or comments about the consent, please contact Andrew W. Bengtson of Jones Day as soon as possible. He can be contacted by phone: (214) 969-4572, fax: (214) 969-5100 or e- mail: awbengtson@jonesday.com. If you are willing to consent to this assignment, you simply need to sign and deliver to us the form attached. That is the easiest way to effect the change. If we do not receive your timely DOCS 11543323 ARCTIC GLACIER INC, e25flgrtyMenee;RGnlpet.MalilWbb KA'JVt Phone! 204,772:2473 1* Z04'83.0857 page 2 consent, however, we can achieve an effective assignment of the lease by order of the Canadian Court supervising the sale process, and a related enforcement order by the US Bankruptcy Court. At this stage, since the timing is quite short, we have prepared Court material in which we have requested a Canadian Court order to approve the transaction and to assign this lease and all of the Arctic Glacier leases, as well as a US Bankruptcy Court order recognizing and enforcing the same. We will be serving you and many other stakeholders with that Court material, which may be quite voluminous. As noted above, if we have your consent, the assignment will be made by way of the written consent rather than Court Order. The requested Court order is simply a back-up plan, which is especially important given the short time -frame to complete the transaction. We look forward to continuing our current relationship with you. Yours truly, Arctic Glacier Inc. Per: Keith McMahon Chief Executive Officer Encl.
