“Downtown is our heartbeat.” Mayor Jamael Tito Brown OPPORTUNITY ZONES OPPORTUNITY $6 Trillion ZONES 101 In unrealized individual and corporate capital gains

50 Million Americans living in economically distressed communities

PRIVATE FOR PUBLIC CAPITAL GOOD OPPORTUNITY ZONE TAX BENEFITS

Several tax incentives are available based on an investment’s time horizon

Temporary Deferral of Capital Gains Tax Liability 1 Gains reinvested in Opportunity Funds will receive a 10% step-down in basis after 5 years, lowering the total deferred gains due in 2026.

Step-Up in Basis of Capital Gains Invested in Opportunity Funds 2 Gains reinvested in Opportunity Funds will receive a 10% step-up in basis after 5 years and an additional step-up of 5% at 7 years. A maximum of 15% of the original gains may be excluded from taxes.

Permanent Exclusion of Gains Generated by OZ Investment 3 New capital gains generated by Opportunity Fund investments are excludable from taxable income if held for at least 10 years. This does not apply towards the original capital gains reinvested. OPPORTUNITY ZONE INVESTMENTS

Billions in targeted capital may flow to Opportunity Zone Investments BY THE NUMBERS INVESTMENT FOCUS AREA United States: Affordable Housing 163 Opportunity Funds created across the U.S. Community Revitalization $75 Billion dollars targeted for investment in OZs Mixed-Use Development

Ohio: Commercial Real Estate 10% additional income tax credit offered by the State of Ohio along with federal incentives Small Business Development OPPORTUNITY ZONE

The 20 Federal project falls within a designated Opportunity Zone

20 Federal – OZ Potential

• The culmination of the opportunity zone benefits could increase the investment return by 2.25%-4%

• If we assume that a Developer invests $4MM of their capital into this project and earn a Year 1 return of 6%, which grows at an annual rate of 5%, they will have a 10-year IRR of 6.5% without OZ Benefits

• Once the OZ benefit is factored in, that exact same investment would produce a 10-year IRR of 9.4%, which is an increase in return of 2.9% NEW MARKETS TAX CREDITS (NMTC) NEW MARKETS TAX CREDITS (NMTC)

The NMTC Program is dedicated to increasing economic opportunity in distressed communities across the U.S. NEW MARKETS TAX CREDITS (NMTC)

A proven tool for generating opportunity in low-income communities (LICs)

Community Development Entity (CDE)

Private Investor Tax Credit Amount NMTC • The New Markets Tax Credit is taken over a 7-year period • The credit rate is: • 5% of the original investment amount in each of the first three years • 6% of the original investment amount in each of the final four years • Total credit equals 39% of the original amount invested in the CDE

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year 6 Year 7 TOTAL 5% 5% 5% 6% 6% 6% 5% 39% NMTC

As a potential $34MM redevelopment, the building could theoretically attract up to $34MM in NMTC allocation likely consisting of 3-4 CDEs 20 Federal – NMTC Potential • Youngstown has a national brand that could attract New Market CDEs even with Ohio not being a targeted NMTC state • Assuming a wide range of $12MM to $34MM in NMTC allocation, the total benefit to the project would be between $2.4MM to $7.5MM • NMTCs act as gap financing which can make projects more economically attractive in underserved markets HISTORIC TAX CREDITS (HTC) HISTORIC TAX CREDITS (HTC) Federal HTC • Federal HTCs are an indirect subsidy to finance up to 20% of Qualified HTC Rehabilitation Expenses (QREs) programs exist in both the federal level and the state level

Federal HTCs have Since it began in 1976, generated over federal HTCs has $102BB in estimated preserved more than rehabilitation 45,000 buildings* investment* HISTORIC TAX CREDITS (HTC) State HTC • State of Ohio HTCs can finance 25% of QREs but are capped at HTC $20MM QRE programs exist in both • State of Ohio HTC is a the federal level and the competitive process state level

Since inception, Ohio The Ohio program is has awarded funding to projected to leverage 475 projects for over more than $6.75BB in 600 buildings in 70 private development & communities* federal tax credits* HISTORIC TAX CREDITS (HTC)

The Strouss-Hirschberg Building (20 Federal Place) has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1986 and remains one of the city’s most impressive and significant historic properties 20 Federal – HTC Potential • QREs are roughly estimated at $30MM for a $34MM development • Assuming a $34MM project with $30MM in QREs and Federal and State pricing of $0.80 each, total subsidy could be $4.8MM in Federal HTCs and $4MM from State HTCs, less fees • Ohio HTC is a competitive process, but the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) has expressed interest in supporting the redevelopment of 20 Federal OHIO TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (TIF) TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (TIF)

In Ohio, a TIF works by locking in the taxable worth of real property at the value it holds at the TIF time the authorization legislation was approved is an economic development mechanism Payments derived from the increased available to local assessed value of any improvement to real governments in Ohio to property beyond that amount are directed finance public towards a separate fund to finance a number infrastructure of infrastructure needs including public roads improvements &, in and highways, water and sewer lines, certain circumstances, remediation, land acquisition, demolition, the residential rehabilitation provision of gas, electric, and communications service facilities, and the enhancement of public waterways TIF

TIFs are implemented at the local level and may be created by a township, municipality or county 20 Federal –TIF Potential

• Assuming a residential and public infrastructure component and a 30-year / 100% TIF with the mandated legislative carve-outs (for schools, hospitals, development disability, etc.) the total benefit could be $2.9MM

• If the 30-year TIF does not receive favorable political feedback during the approval process, there is a step down TIF option available which is easier to get approved but has a lower incentive value

• Assuming the step down TIF, level of 10-years at 75%, the value is $1MM EARNINGS TAX “TIF” EARNINGS Incentive Potential TAX “TIF” • Some cities allow earnings/payroll tax diversion to fund tenant or building improvements • Example: The City of St. Louis collects a 1.0% earnings tax and a 0.5% payroll tax • In certain cases, the City authorizes a length of term where the tax from new employees are diverted into a fund that covers certain improvements • A similar plan for 20 Federal could be explored SALES AND USE TAX EXEMPTION SALES AND USE TAX EXEMPTION

Sales tax exemption certificates are required whenever a seller makes a sale of taxable goods or services, and does not collect sales tax in a jurisdiction, in which they are required 20 Federal – Sales and Use Tax Exemption Potential • Through its capital lease program, the Western Reserve Port Authority can provide a sales tax exemption on building materials • Assuming a $34MM project and $10MM in materials with all materials in the State of Ohio, this could provide a total exemption of $715K (40% of $34MM cost at 7.25%) PROPERTY ACCESSED CLEAN ENERGY (PACE) PROPERTY ACCESSED Tax Credit Potential CLEAN ENERGY (PACE) • The PACE loan is a long term, fixed- rate, non-recourse (after construction in completed) loan which is repaid through a special assessment levied against the property and collected with the property’s tax bill • PACE can act as a lower-cost loan PACE which can replace more expensive is a financing tool which allows debt and equity sources or can help fill projects to obtain low- cost a financing gap flexible debt which can finance 100% of the cost of energy • PACE financing can be stacked with efficiency, renewable energy, bank loans and other incentive sources and water conservation • The energy savings from the PACE improvements for real estate improvements should decrease future projects of all types expenses and increase the property value for the owner, thus making the project more financially viable overall for the investor and lender PROPERTY ACCESSED CLEAN ENERGY (PACE)

How does PACE work?

Building owner PACE Administrator Property owners completes energy Local Government approves financing Property owner uses energy savings audit of feasibility establishes PACE and City assigns completes property to repay study to identify Program assessment to improvements assessment (for up savings property to 20 years) opportunities VIBRANT COMMUNITY PROGRAM (VCP) VIBRANT COMMUNITY PROGRAM

The Vibrant Community Program was established by JobsOhio, a private non-profit economic development organization, to assist communities with the implementation of development projects that fulfill a market need and represent a significant investment 20 Federal –VCP Incentive Potential

• The Vibrant Community Program can provide grants of up to $2MM for development projects which can help transform distressed communities • Ideal eligible projects include community assets, downtown redevelopment, renovation of outdated spaces, coworking/shared office spaces, etc. • The proposed project is a perfect fit for the intent of this program since it hits on all the above criteria • A representative from the appropriate office for the program has stated that projects in the Youngstown market would be strong positioned for this program 6 MODEL
