Per Governor Abbott's Executive Order from June 3, 2020, "For any outdoor gathering in excess of 10 people, the gathering is prohibited unless the mayor of the city in which the gathering is held, or the county judge in the case of a gathering in an unincorporated area, approves of the gathering, and such approval can be made subject to certain conditions or restrictions not inconsistent with this executive order." With large gatherings being shut down for the foreseeable future, we are excited to potentially host limited capacity events outdoors in these two unique settings with safety and health always the highest priority. See attached for a presentation providing a summary of what we are looking to do. We are in the preliminary planning of hosting events starting in October but not committed to anything until the appropriate approvals have been met. I have also attached our safety protocol measures that ASM Global has implemented. We feel this opportunity will provide the Coastal Bend some unique (and safe) live entertainment experiences during these challenging times. Please review at your earliest convenience and let me know if you have any questions or concerns. If all looks good, please provide written approval allowing ASM Global to host these events. Thank you for your time and consideration.

AmericanBank C ENTER arena • convention center • selena auditorium RETURNING TO THE WORKPLACE Please note: this information is based on the information currently available and may be changed based on the direction or guidance from health officials and governmental agencies. The decision to return team members to the venue should be reviewed in advance with your Regional Vice President. In an effort to keep employees, partners and guests healthy and to minimize exposure to the venue, American Bank Center has established this Safety Plan effective the date noted above and continuing until further notice. This policy is subject to revision at any time and is based on the most current local, State, and Federal directives as well as CDC guidelines regarding the coronavirus (COVID-19). Failure to comply with this policy could result in an increased risk of exposure to both staff and guests creating an extended closure of the facilities. Therefore, it is incumbent on all to ensure compliance with this policy. EMPLOYEE SAFETY GUIDELINES Consider the following guidelines and suggestions to control building ingress and egress, and that promote ongoing safety and precautionary measures at those points. These might include: Entry Points (Non-event day) ASM Global Employees, Contractors, Temps and Vendors must enter through the East main entrance or garage stair well Reception Training reception personnel on safe interactions with guests. Disposable sticker security tags rather than recycled clips or lanyards Wellness Checks All employees MUST self-administer their body temperature prior to entering the building on a daily basis; All ASM Global on-site employees must complete the standard health questionnaire on a weekly basis and are encouraged to stay home if they feel sick Signage Install signage at multiple, relevant locations in the entry sequence. Explain building access rules and other protocols that impact how occupants use and move throughout the building PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) PPE will be provided to anyone working in the building. Gloves and safety suits are not required but can be provided if necessary, to safely perform your job. Used PPE must be disposed of in the provided PPE receptacles Social Distancing All full-time & part-time employees must observe a minimum 6 -foot distance at all times Wash Hands Wash hands for 20 seconds often. When needed, touch less hand sanitizing stations have been added to the offic traffic walkways re Meetings In -Person are discouraged, unless observing social distancing guidelines Elevators Elevator Usage is limited to two people at a time Workspaces Employees in offices are encouraged to keep office doors open and employees in cubicles verify there is sufficient space to observe proper social distancing Restrooms Designated use is limited to the Lobby & WGA locations only and the employee restrooms on the Arena first level back of house by Command; These locations are included as part of the 2x per day cleaning schedule Daily Cleaning High touch areas are disinfected frequently and work spaces are professionally disinfected twice daily (morning and mid- day) with hospital -grade disinfectant QUEST! In advance of returning team members to the venue, please review the following information regarding the physical spaces. Note: Public safety codes, building codes, applicable laws and security requirements must not be compromised to reduce the potential for physical contact with items in the workplace. SHIPPING AND RECEIVING AREAS: The World Health Organization advises it is safe to receive packages from areas where COVID-19 has been reported. The virus does not survive for long on surfaces and the length of shipment time and other environmental factors should inactivate the virus. If you receive an expedited package from an area where COVID-19 is present, consider these steps: 4z' Wash your hands frequently with soap and water I\' Use hand sanitizer when soap and water are not available Avoid touching your face, eyes, nose or mouth. Before reopening review current processes for inbound and outbound deliveries (parcels, mail, food deliveries, couriers and so forth) and develop a revised plan to align to COVID-19 safety precautions. These might include: Routing instructions and plans to avoid deliveries through employee or main entrance and instead route through areas that will minimize contact Separating shipping and receiving areas from the general population Require personnel handling mail and parcels to wear PPE to receive parcels, mail and other deliveries, and train them in the proper use and disposal of PPE Sanitizing the exterior of packing If appropriate, removing items from boxes and appropriate discard AmericanBank:;, .CENTER +.AcM AN % MANAGED FACILITY As an organization, we at ASM Global want to provide you with the best guidance to begin to bring team members back to the workplace, and make the transition as safe, supportive and successful as possible. MITIGATING WORKFORCE ANXIETY CHANGE MANAGEMENT Developing a plan to mitigate employee concerns must be a top priority. People may be worried about their personal health and the health of those they care about. They have anxieties about their jobs, and the workplace, and we want to do everything possible to calm their anxieties. To help team members through what may be a turbulent, stressful and unpredictable return to work, ASM Global intends to focus on our team members from both a personal and work perspective. It's critical to understand how the pandemic has impacted their personal connection to the culture of ASM Global. It's also important that our team members know that ASM Global cares about how they feel, the personal challenges they may now have, and that we want to ensure that they know we are committed to caring for their wellbeing as they return to their physical workplace. AmericanBank :;, .CENTER Ensuring team members understand what the workplace will be like upon return is critical. Some team members may expect nothing to change, while others will assume everything will be different. Preparing and reminding them that these changes will help keep them safe ease confusion. Recommended practices for consideration include: • Re-engagement of team members: Responses to working remotely during turbulent times are varied and unique. ASM Global will provide guidance on managing individual circumstances related to returning to the physical workforce. • Early communication: As plans are forming, keep the workforce informed as soon as appropriate. We have provided more detailed suggestions on communications on the following page. ALCIIA AN % MANAGED FACILITY PREPARING THE WORKFORCE & ORGANIZATION COMMUNICATIONS As we methodically return our Team Members to the workplace, it is important that we communicate our new way of managing our business and how it will impact their day to day routine. The more we communicate and address the details of our new normal, anticipate employee questions, anxieties and concerns, the better our reactivation of the workforce will be. Some of the recommended communications strategies might include: • Communicate frequently to make team members aware of the details and changes designed to keep everyone safe and healthy • Educate and team members about new work practices and provide any training that may be needed • Consider using a wide range of communication channels and materials email, posters/digital displays and others as we will still have team members working remotely or on reduced schedules. We want to make sure they remain connected to the team, and have all the available information they need. Share how ASM Global is following government guidelines and reiterate those guidelines for reopening workspaces. Overview of some changes team members may see: New entrance protocols for team members visitors The optional or even required use of masks or other PPE Instructions on bringing equipment (laptops, chairs, etc.) back into the workplace and sanitation requirements Changes to the work environment including office and meeting room arrangement, relocation of desks, etc. Modifications to internal and external meeting protocols including hosting of client events, and visitor access AmericanBank (CENTER _~.APIA AN %® MANAGED FACILITY It will be important that we communicate to our team members any changes that we are implementing inside our workplaces. Each venue will have a unique set of circumstances to consider as they return team members to the workplace All areas of the workplace should make every effort to maintain social distancing protocols. WORKPLACE HYGIENE PRACTICES Encourage good personal hygiene and infection control practices when team members are in the workplace, including: Respiratory etiquette: • Encourage covering coughs and sneezes into a tissue and immediately throwing tissue away • Turn away from others when coughing or sneezing Hand hygiene: • Promote frequent and thorough hand washing • Make hand sanitizers available in multiple locations adjacent to common touchpoints including break rooms, copier areas, etc. Avoid touchpoints: Provide disposable wipes so that common touchpoints (e.g., doorknobs, light switches, desks, desktop peripherals, remote controls, and more) can be disinfected by employees before each use • Discourage the use or borrowing of other people's phones, desks, offices or equipment • Maintaining a clean workplace will assist in minimizing risk to employees. Kitchen Areas: Develop new practices on kitchen and meal preparation areas, which may include some temporary measures such as: • Encourage occupants to bring food and beverage items from home and manage them individually • Minimize touchpoints by removing coffee pots and the like • Eliminate open food items Increase frequency of cleaning appliances such as refrigerators and microwaves AmericanBank w;. ,C E N T E R Individual desks: • Implement a strict clean -desk policy so that non-essential items are not stored on the desk, but rather enclosed in cabinets or drawers • Supply disposable daily paper placemats for use at each desk • If desks or work areas are shared, advise individuals to sanitize all surfaces upon arrival at that seat. Supply disinfectants in the immediate proximity (or on each desk) • Unless stringent cleaning protocols are enforced, and if possible, avoid sharing of desks In-person meetings: • Coach team members to critically evaluate the requirement for in-person meetings • Limit the number of attendees at in-person meetings and limit to spaces that accommodate safe distances • Host large team/staff meetings via video conference rather than in-person • Eliminate in-person meetings with external guests Pre -shift briefing: • Where possible, pre -shift briefings should be conducted in rooms large enough to accomplish social distancing If not possible consider staggering arrival and briefings ASM Global recommends that each venue review the guidelines and requirements of jurisdiction it is in as well as continuing guidance from the CDC. While it is not ASM Global's policy at this time to require the below listed protocols, we encourage you to follow the direction of the community health officials and the Contract Administrator in these areas. Should it be determined that such protocols are to be implemented, the Regional Vice President should be notified. The following guidance is provided to assist in setting up these protocols: AN%«/Y7 MANAGED FACILITY COMMON AREAS / LOBBIES Consider guidelines and recommendations that promote safety and guide building occupants through common and amenities areas beyond the entry.
