Parrington Hall Renovation: Stage 2 Approval RECOMMENDED ACTION It is the recommendation of the administration and the Finance and Asset Management Committee that the Board of Regents, by granting Stage 2 approval to the Parrington Hall Renovation project (the “Project”):
1) Approve the Project budget of $23.8 million;
2) Approve the financing plan including use of:
a) up to $2.42 million of funding from the Internal Lending Program (ILP) for a portion of the construction costs; and
b) the Bridge Program to fund expenditures relating to unfulfilled gifts with a maximum borrowing of $2.6 million and a term not to exceed five years from the date of Board approval; and
3) Delegate authority to the President or her designee to execute contract amendments for construction.
BACKGROUND In January 2018, the Board approved a Five-Year Capital Budget that includes the the Project. In April 2018, the Board granted Stage 1 approval to the Project, authorizing a pre-construction budget of $1.4 million and delegating authority to award the design-build contract. Stage 2 approval authorizes the full financial plan for the Project. Since 1998, enrollment in the Evans School of Public Policy and Governance (“Evans School”) has grown from 223 students to over 500 in 2018 with a core faculty growing from 13 to 40 during the same period. US News & World Report ranks the school fourth in the nation, second among public institutions, out of 266 schools of public affairs and policy. The Evans School has managed growth within the limitations of its existing space in Parrington Hall for the past ten years. The Project will renovate the Parrington Hall interior to meet program needs. This includes the demolition and replacement of existing general assignment classrooms with flexible classrooms that support active learning. Additionally, the Project will create more open staff and graduate student offices and provide increased collaboration areas across the building.

Parrington Hall Project Background
Project Background
For the past decade the Evans School of Public Policy and Governance (“Evans School”) has
managed student and faculty growth within the limitations of Parrington Hall. The Parrington Hall
renovation will modernize outdated building programs and infrastructure creating flexible
classrooms to support creative learning classrooms and open offices to increase collaboration.
The April 2018 Stage 1 approval by the Board of Regents set a target budget of $20 million. The
Design Build contract was subsequently executed according to this budget. However, due to new
permit requirements which defined the Project as substantial alteration, the original budget was
altered in order to meet both program and building Code requirements.
An increased budget recommendation of $23.8 million aligns project scope with both City
permitting and Evans School program requirements. The revised budget follows the original 50-
percent funding participation by the Evans School which will be strategically allocated to achieve
balanced program and building renewal project goals. The project team continues to work with
the City of Seattle to determine the most appropriate ways to address a variety of Code
interpretation issues while maximizing funds available for academic program enhancements.
Project Schedule
This is a Design-Build (D-B) project, with Absher Construction-Integrus Architecture as the selected
D-B team. The design started in summer 2018 and construction will begin in May 2019 with
substantial completion in August 2020. City permitting negotiations have extended the project
completion date by three months.

Parrington Hall Financing Plan and Credit Analysis
SCOPE OF FINANCIAL DUE DILIGENCE
Prior to the Administration’s recommending a debt-funded project for Board approval,
the Treasury Office conducts a financial due diligence. The process for due diligence is
well-defined but not exhaustive. It involves a financial risk assessment based on
conversations with the borrower, an in-depth review of provided data, and an
evaluation of the impact of a series of stress tests on the proforma. It is not intended
to replace the work of the management team, and offers no assurance of financial
performance.
Specific due diligence tasks, in partnership with the Evans School and the Office of Planning
and Budgeting, included the following:
Developed a FY2019 - FY2029 project proforma
Identified key risks
Conducted critical stress tests
Identified mitigation plans
Provided guidance on loan structuring
Financing Plan and Credit Analysis
The Parrington Hall is a $23.8 million renovation to the infrastructure and interior of
Parrington Hall (the “Project”), which will help meet the Evans School of Public Policy and
Governance’s (the “Evans School”) needs for flexible learning and office space.
In partnership with the Office of Planning and Budgeting (OPB), the Treasury Office worked
closely with the Evans School to perform a credit analysis to assess the ability of the
department to fully fund the Project through a combination of (a) State funds, (b) a
University capital contribution, (c) donor funds, and (d) an Internal Lending Program (ILP)
loan. The ILP loan will be repaid from net income of the Evans School, followed by available
reserves. Ultimately, the Provost backstops all ILP loans.
Due to the donor funding component of the Project, the University’s Bridge program will
also be used to address the timing gap between project expenditures and the receipt of gift
funds in order to accelerate project construction.
Treasury believes the Evans School has demonstrated the ability to fully fund the Project
and adequately service related debt. While the loan is relatively small in size, it is important
to note that the Evans School’s ability to service the debt is largely due to growth in fee-
based revenue and limited increases in salaries and benefits. Further, the Evans School has
thin reserves to mitigate declines in financial performance. In the event of declining

financing performance, the Evans School will work with OPB to evaluate various
mitigations.
Project Scope and Funding
The Project includes the demolition and replacement of existing general assignment
classrooms with flexible spaces that support active learning, create open staff and
graduate student offices, and provide collaboration areas across the building. This Project
also includes significant structural work as well as infrastructure upgrades to modernize
systems and improve accessibility to provide for consistent user comfort and flexibility.
As shown in the following table, the total cost of the Project is $23.8 million:
Proposed Budget
Proposed Funding
Construction Cost $ 18,231,211 State Funds $ 10,000,000
Consultant Services 2,865,725 Donor Funds 9,488,849
Equipment and Furniture 1,012,920 ILP Loan* 2,411,151
Project Management 883,632 UW Capital Funds 1,900,000
Other Costs 806,512
Total Project Cost $ 23,800,000 Total Funds $ 23,800,000
* Excludes $2,500 issuance fee to be paid from School reserves at closing. Estimated debt service on the
ILP loan after completion is expected to be approximately $288,500/year
Key Assumptions
Two key assumptions behind the financial proforma are the Evans School’s forecast that (1)
fee-based programs will grow at a higher rate than in recent years and (2) salaries and
benefits will grow modestly going forward. Proforma assumptions were vetted with OPB
and align with the Evans School’s budget.
Revenues (FY19-FY29):
Tuition: An average growth rate of 2.2%/year, reflecting expected tuition increases
Self-Sustaining Units: An average growth rate of 8%/year, reflecting growth in actual
and planned programs
Fee-Based Programs: The growth rate for FY20 and FY21 is assumed to be 32% and
21% respectively due to the launch of the Global MPA fee-based program in FY20.
Thereafter the Evans School projects a growth rate of 5%/year, reflecting sustained
enrollment and tuition growth

Parrington Hall Financing Plan and Credit Analysis
Expenses (FY19-FY29):
Salary Expenses: A growth rate of 2%/year
Benefit Expense: A growth rate of 2%/year
FTE Growth: 1 faculty added in FY22, 2 faculty and 2 professional staff added in FY23
Loan Provisions:
10-year loan (useful life of tenant improvements is > 10 years)
Interest is accrued and paid through construction
Estimated debt service on the 10-year loan (after construction) is expected to be
approximately $288,500/year
The Bridge loan will accrue interest at a fixed short-term market rate, and will be
paid monthly (see Bridge Financing Strategy below)
Base Case Proforma (see Appendix A)
The Base Case proforma shows that the Evans School can service the debt related to their
ILP and Bridge loans:
The relative size of the ILP loan is small compared to net income resulting in Debt
Service Coverage (DSC) well above the standard 1.25x. The minimum Debt Service
Coverage (DSC) is 6.2x in FY23 and the maximum is 155.5x in FY20
Unrestricted reserves are well above 1-year of debt service (approximately
$288,500) and are projected to grow from a minimum of $1.9 million in FY20 to a
maximum of $20.7 million in FY29
Stress Tests & Sensitivity Analysis (see Appendix B)
Three stress tests were performed. For illustrative purposes, the stress tests assume no
mitigation is taken by the Evans School or OPB.
1. Revenue Stressor: Fee-based revenues remain equal to FY19 levels (0% growth)
If fee-based revenues remain at FY19 levels, the Evans School is still
projected to generate positive cash flow in all years
Reserves would remain positive in all years
2. Expense Stressor: Salary and benefit expenses grow 5%/year and 4%/year
respectively
If salary and benefits grow at higher rates than in the Base Case proforma,
the Evans School is projected to generate negative cash flow beginning in
FY27
Reserves would remain positive in all years
F-3.3/204-19 4/10/19

Parrington Hall Financing Plan and Credit Analysis
3. Combined stress case (both conditions described above)
If both conditions described above occur simultaneously, cash flow will
become negative beginning in FY23 and thereafter and reserves will be
exhausted in FY24
Risk Mitigation Plan
Potential mitigations of evaluated stressors include:
Expense reductions;
Increased philanthropy;
Curtail other capital expenditures and School initiatives; and
Increased support by Central
Bridge Financing Strategy
As of March 15, 2019, the Evans School has received $9.5 million in pledges relating to the
Project, with $6.9 million on hand. The Evans School expects to collect an additional $2.6
million through the construction of the Project. When combined with the other funding
sources, these funds are expected to cover Project expenditures through June 2020.
At that point, Project expenditures are expected to exceed available funds and the Bridge
program will be used to fund expenditures relating to unfulfilled gifts. Based on currently
uncollected pledges, the maximum Bridge loan will be set at $2.6 million. However, under
current collection projections, the needed Bridge loan is estimated to be $1.4 million.
The Bridge loan will accrue interest at a short-term market rate determined at the time of
the initial draw. The interest rate will be fixed for the life of the loan. The interest will be
paid monthly from Evans School net income. The Bridge program is not an additional
funding source for Project costs, and any outstanding Bridge loan balance will be repaid as
donor funds are received, but no later than five years after Regent approval (April 2024).
Ongoing Communication Plan
On-going requirements and communication include:
Enter into a financing agreement with Treasury
Provide periodic financial information as requested by Treasury, OPB, and/or the
Board of Regents
Contact Compliance and Risk Services to determine the appropriate types and
amounts of coverage, if any
