Is this for the leases at 3700 150th Ave Ct E, Sumner, WA 98390?

Yes.

Is this lease intended to start at the end of the existing leases?

Yes. Assume Beneficial Occupancy approximately 9 months prior to the current lease expiration date to account for a potential move.

Can a shorter term be considered? GSA’s request is for a long-term lease, not 5-year incremental lease terms.

The required term is 20 years firm. This is a mission critical operation that cannot contemplate moving on a frequent basis.

For the $7.2M TIA, the incumbent would have a lower TIA.

Can you send us clarification on the RSF requirement of 422,000 sqft. Are you seeking to have one warehouse to cover that amount of space or multiple warehouses? Can this only be located in Sumner?
