Heading: Act 2 benefits only Superferry as only Superferry has an Operating Agreement with the State.

Text: Section 1(b)(2) of Act 2 provides, in relevant part, that: Agreements with respect to the operations of a large capacity ferry vessel company, including a large capacity ferry vessel company operating agreement, entered into between the State and a large capacity ferry vessel company, may be enforced as written or as executed or re-executed[.] Act 2, ง 1(b)(2) at 6. The record in this case shows that only Superferry has an operating agreement with the State. Also, at oral argument on December 18, 2008, counsel for the State and Superferry could not represent to this court that any other large capacity ferry vessel company had an operating agreement with the State. The benefits provided by Act 2 to a large capacity ferry vessel company were clearly intended to benefit only Superferry, as only Superferry has an operating agreement with the State.
