With this insight, the Eagle Valley Events is able to evaluate year-over-year economic contributions of the event, develop objectives to increase the overall performance, market effectively, and provide sponsors with valuable data regarding the event. Eagle Valley Events identified several objectives for this study. Objectives:  Attendee details (e.g. reason for visiting Vail, prior attendance, loyalty)  Intent to return to the event  Quantify recommendations  Evaluate event performance  Estimate spending habits  Estimate revenue generation  Understand media effectiveness/awareness  Obtain demographical and geographical data  Determine accommodations, nights stayed, town stayed in, etc.  Lifestyle Categories  Venue access (e.g. drove, parking, bus ridership, etc.) Objectives 1 INTERCEPT INSIGHT, LLC | PO Box 2078 Avon, CO 81620 | www.interceptinsight.com | 970.331.1086 Eagle Valley Events and Intercept Insight designed a core set of questions intended to meet the objectives of the study, including some event specific questions. Once the survey was approved the questions were programmed into a survey design tool and then uploaded on handheld devices. The surveys were conducted in -person using the handheld devices to collect the data. In-person intercepts were conducted on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (June 27th - 29th, 2014) throughout the Arrabelle at Vail Square in the Lionshead Mall. Surveyors were hired and trained to conduct the intercepts in a way so that a random representative sample of the population was being collected each day. Those surveyed must have been 18 years of age or older. A sample plan was designed, and a daily quota was met. Once the daily quotas were met the data was downloaded using a statistical software, and prepared for analysis and reporting. Methodology 2 INTERCEPT INSIGHT, LLC | PO Box 2078 Avon, CO 81620 | www.interceptinsight.com | 970.331.1086 It is important to remember that this is a tool for gathering event attendees’ opinions and feedback. Many of the results are presented in terms of percentages. Intercept Insight, LLC encourages readers to consider the overall direction that is suggested rather than only the statistics. Note that the margin of error is different for every single question response on the survey depending on the sam ple sizes, proportion of responses, and number of answer categories for each question. As a general comment, it is sometimes more appro priate to focus attention on the general trends and patterns in the data rather than on the individual percentages. Eagle Valley Events engaged Intercept Insight, LLC for research services/in-person intercepts during the 2014 Vail Arts Festival. These services included strategy and execution, survey development, programming, analysis, reporting, and staffing. Surveyors using handheld data collection tools conducted in-person intercepts throughout the Lionshead Mall in Vail. 109 surveys were conducted over the cour se of the event, which provides a 9.3% margin of error at a 95% confidence interval with the data collected. Last year’s estimates of the total number of vehicle transactions within the parking structures, and the number of cars parked along the frontage road during the course of the event were used in 2014 due to the Lionshead structure’s upgrade. Using the total transactions, car counts, and data from specific survey questions, the total estimated attendance of the Vail Arts Festival was 14,472 with a +/- 20% margin for error. Using the estimated attendance and specific survey questions regarding accommodations, spending habits, and the percentage of those who came to Vail specifically for this event, an estimated revenue generation for the Town of Vail was calculated. The Vail Arts Festival was responsible for generating approximately $890K, with a +/- 20% margin for error, within the Town of Vail. Overall Satisfaction with the Vail Arts Festival was extremely high with a mean satisfaction rating of 4.6 on a scale of 1 to 5, where 1=Not at all satisfied and 5=Extremely satisfied. The likelihood for the attendees to recommend this event was again very positive in 201 4 earning a Net Promoter Score of 51. “Word-of-mouth” was the most selected option when asked “How did you hear about, and/or where did you see advertising for this event this year?” Locals made up 24% of the attendance, while 72% of the attendees were overnight guests, and 55% of the total attendees were f rom Colorado. 88% of those staying in paid lodging stayed in Vail, and stayed an average of 2.9 nights. The mean age of the att endees was 52, with 46% and 54% being male and female respectively. 34% attended with their spouse/significant other, while 34% attended with family inclu ding children. The average number of children per family in attendance was 2.0, and the average age of children under 18 was 8.7 years. 19% attended with a dog, and many of the respondents are outdoor enthusiasts, travelers, and wine & foodies, who enjoy hiking, tr aveling, and golf most during the summer months.

Those who rate a ‘9’ or ‘10’ are called “Promoters”. Those who rate a ‘7’ or ‘8’ are called “Passive Supporters”, and those who rate ‘0’ to ‘6’ are called detractors.

Satisfac tion can be measured along a continuum and can be broken out into three major points: •Discontentment – customers needs are simply not being met. •Merely Satisfied – meeting customers needs, but not doing enough to distinguish among competition. •Delighted – meeting and exceeding the customers needs and expectations Terry Keiningham and Terry Varva, 2001,The Customer Delight Principle, Google Book Search, viewed 6/23/2008, http://books.google.com/books?id=ot8oD9B2Ck8C&dq=cus tomer+Delight+Prinicple&pg=PP1&ots=VOXp3xEU0J&sig=9 VbRewC5X8MN3xs2vDpmuS9muNk&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_ result&resnum=1&ct=result 13 Attribute Satisfaction Each person surveyed was asked to rate their satisfaction level with several attributes of the Vail Arts Festival on a scale of 1 to 5, where 1=Not at all satisfied and 5=Extremely satisfied.

The Lionshead parking structure’s vehicle tracking system was in the process of an upgrade during this event in 2014. 10,455 15,149 14,472 14,772 7,468 10,821 10,156 10,258 3,137 3,782 3,893 3,522 $836,792 $1,270,692 $1,006,293 $888,877 $(250,000) $(50,000) $150,000 $350,000 $550,000 $750,000 $950,000 $1,150,000 $1,350,000 0 5,000 10,000 15,000 20,000 25,000 30,000 35,000 2011 2012 2013 2014 VAF - Estimated Attendance and Revenue Generation Total Attendance Total People Total People (Came for VAF) Gross Revenue Generation Accommodations Accommodations 24 INTERCEPT INSIGHT, LLC | PO Box 2078 Avon, CO 81620 | www.interceptinsight.com | 970.331.1086 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Paid Lodging Friends/Family 2nd Home Timeshare Primary Residence Other Day Trip 32% 10% 15% 12% 28% 0% 4% 42% 8% 15% 15% 16% 1% 3% 21% 15% 13% 18% 24% 1% 8% 33% 8% 13% 13% 23% 1% 8% 29% 11% 17% 15% 24% 5% Vail Arts Festival - Accommodations 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 N = 109 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 1 - 2 3 - 5 6 - 7 8 - 10 11 - 14 15+ 29% 40% 19% 3% 2% 7% 28% 28% 28% 3% 3% 9% 19% 48% 26% 3% 2% 3% 30% 33% 22% 4% 4% 8% 26% 24% 27% 10% 13% Vail Arts Festival - Night Stayed Categories (All Accommodations) 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 N = 78 Average nights stayed (all accommodations) - 6.7 Average nights stayed (paid lodging in Vail) - 2.9 Accommodations 25 INTERCEPT INSIGHT, LLC | PO Box 2078 Avon, CO 81620 | www.interceptinsight.com | 970.331.1086 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Vail Avon Beaver Creek Edwards Eagle Vail Arrowhead Breckenridge Denver/Front range Eagle 69% 5% 8% 1% 3% 1% 0% 63% 12% 8% 3% 5% 1% 3% 74% 11% 5% 5% 0% 2% 3% 65% 10% 6% 6% 1% 3% 3% 1% 63% 13% 9% 6% 4% 1% 1% 1% 1% Vail Arts Festival - Town Stayed In (All Accommodations) 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 N = 78 Geographical Data Geographics 27 INTERCEPT INSIGHT, LLC | PO Box 2078 Avon, CO 81620 | www.interceptinsight.com | 970.331.1086 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Local In-State Day In-State Overnight Out-of-State International 25% 4% 20% 49% 1% 12% 4% 37% 44% 3% 24% 8% 27% 41% 0% 23% 8% 22% 46% 1% 24% 5% 27% 45% Vail Arts Festival - Market Segment 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 N = 109 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Colorado Texas Arizona California Florida 49% 7% 4% 2% 2% 53% 6% 2% 3% 6% 56% 9% 4% 1% 4% 50% 9% 3% 3% 3% 55% 14% 5% 5% 3% Vail Arts Festival - Top Five States of Origin 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Demographical Data Demographics 29 INTERCEPT INSIGHT, LLC | PO Box 2078 Avon, CO 81620 | www.interceptinsight.com | 970.331.1086 34% attended with “Family (including children)”. 89% of those attending with their family (including children), were with children under 18 years of age.
