NFL IN LA: AEG’S MISSTEPS WITH FARMERS FIELD
By Jaboner Jackson 8 a.m. | This past summer, AEG and the City of Los Angeles signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that provided the general framework for construction for Farmers Field in downtown Los Angeles. Under the MOU, AEG confirmed key aspects of its operation of Farmers Field in regards to professional football, including a nontraditional landlord-tenant relationship with an NFL team that would differ from usual NFL stadium situations. The MOU also delineated a clear relationship between Farmers Field and the City of Los Angeles for construction of a new wing for the Los Angeles Convention Center, commonly referred to as Pico Hall. But AEG has since stumbled in regards to both aspects, thereby delaying the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for Farmers Field, which in turn has delayed a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) with the City of Los Angeles and resultant groundbreaking on construction by at least a year from 2012 to 2013.

FINANCING SANTA CLARA STADIUM, PART 1: REVIEWING THE DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
By Jaboner Jackson 5 p.m. | Yesterday, the City of Santa Clara released the Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) for its planned football stadium for the San Francisco 49ers. The DDA is a contract between the City of Santa Clara and San Francisco 49ers that governs all aspects of stadium development, including financing, lease terms, and construction. The only holdup on the DDA had been financing, which the City of Santa Clara and San Francisco 49ers had had difficulty obtaining until recently, when a syndicate of investment banks led by Goldman Sachs and involving Bank of America/Merrill Lynch and U.S. Bank ("Banking Syndicate") arranged construction loans and follow-up takeout financing. Execution of the DDA is the ultimate step in building Santa Clara Stadium. Today, we delve into the financial aspects of the DDA as only we can by answering the most pertinent questions surrounding the DDA, City of Santa Clara, and San Francisco 49ers, and we come to the conclusion that the San Francisco 49ers are exposed to significant financial risk in this transaction that is unusual for an NFL team.

NFL IN LA: JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS NOT COMING TO FARMERS FIELD IN LOS ANGELES
By Jaboner Jackson 8 a.m. | Yesterday, the Jacksonville Jaguars announced that the current owner, Wayne Weaver, had entered into an agreement with businessman Shahid Khan to purchase the team. The NFL is expected to vote on the transaction December 14 and the deal is expected to close with league approval in January 2012. Although the Jaguars have never been on our list of teams to relocate to Farmers Field, speculation by the media about a move to Los Angeles surfaced shortly after the planned sale was announced. Despite this speculation, the Jaguars are not tied to Farmers Field and will not be relocating to AEG's planned downtown Los Angeles stadium. Rather, AEG remains singularly focused on securing the San Diego Chargers as its anchor tenant.
