EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On June 23rd, 2014 the University of Kentucky (UK) announced that JMI Sports had been awarded UK’s athletics and campus multimedia marketing rights with a
15-year, $210 million deal. An innovator in sales, marketing, and project management services to university properties including the Southeastern Conference
(SEC), Alabama, North Carolina, Oregon, Auburn, Syracuse and many more, UK serves as the first client for which JMI will operate as the third-party multi-
media rights holder. For the University, priorities in signing the agreement included the ability to have a network and platform that allowed fans to absolutely
stay in contact with the pulse of Wildcat Athletics, the successes by student-athletes, as well as the campus-wide initiatives that are taking place to advance the
mission of UK. Additionally, Kentucky Athletics looked to take proactive measures toward ensuring the competitive health of student-athletes and coaches by
equipping them with the resources necessary to compete at the highest level not only against conference peers but on the national landscape.
A core component of the RFP process and bid selection of JMI Sports was the ability to expand and deliver a first-class experience for fans, donors, alumni,
alike through enhancement of campus and athletic facilities. With 67 corporate naming rights within the intercollegiate athletics space, specifically 18 football
facilities, UK Athletics and JMI sought to explore the identification, validation, and valuation of prospective naming rights partners for Commonwealth Stadium,
home of the Kentucky football. Specifically, our charge was to create assets that extend the reach and benefits for a naming rights partner beyond the stadium,
potentially transcending Athletics and reaching the student body and alumni base as part of a truly holistic, comprehensive agreement.
In looking at the initial list of properties considered, prospective partners where vetted on the basis of management ties to UK, either via the K-Fund or affinity
for the university as alumni, prior relationships or philanthropic initiatives with the University and campus units, past involvement in sport (conducted through
Sports Business Journal), degree of consumer insights uncovered through Scarborough research, and the financial capacity to enter into a possible naming
rights deal. After researching an initial list of 31 companies comprised of regional businesses and those who were expanding their footprint into the region, 11
were tabbed as attractive and worthy of full-scale valuation through the development of activation strategies that includes static signage, in-game inventory,
digital assets, printed advertising, entertainment options, and other peripheral opportunities that uniquely and strategically advanced the corporate initiatives
and objectives of these partners. Through the use of Navigate Research’s Navigator valuation tool, the portfolio of activation elements for each organization
(Ashland/Valvoline, Big Ass Solutions, Central Bank, Dish Network, Humana, Kentucky Farm Bureau, Tempur-Pedic/Tempur-Seally, Toyota) were valued at their
fair market value, each of which is outlined in detail in the pages of this report.
Additionally, Joyce Julius & Associates, Inc. conducted an independent valuation that showcased the projected quantitative exposure a corporate naming rights
agreement would be expected to receive via name-in-title sponsorship rights of Commonwealth Stadium via impression stemming from television news
coverage, print media, internet news coverage, as well as home game telecasts on the newly formed SEC Network. Total exposure from research is expected to
produce roughly 318.6 million impressions annually valued at $8.02 million. Combined with a program that under the direction of second-year head coach, Mark
Stoops, is starting to translate success on the recruiting trail to success on the football field, there’s opportunity for prospective partners to creatively reach a
passionate demographic of Wildcat fans through a naming rights agreement that would be the first of its kind in the Southeastern Conference.
UK FOOTBALL:
AT-A-GLANCE
2
There’s been a budding excitement around Lexington and the
Kentucky Wildcat football program. Now in his second year with
the Wildcats, Stoops has already won more games (five) this
season than the previous two seasons combined (two each in
2012 and 2013). The future is bright for continued progress, given
the recruiting success of Stoops and his coaching staff. With a
full year to recruit the 2014 signing group, the Kentucky coaches
landed a consensus top-25 class, including a No. 17 ranking by
Rivals.com, UK’s highest-rated class in the Internet era of
recruiting evaluation. Since he took the reins at Kentucky, Stoops
has signed or presently has commitments from 17 players that
are ranked as four-star prospects. From 2002 (the first year of
the Rivals recruiting data base) through 2012, Kentucky signed
only 14 total prospects ranked as four stars. Three of those four-
star prospects signed in the pre-Stoops period – Demetrius
Goode (2006), D.J. Stafford (2007) and Alex Smith (2010) – never
played a down of football at UK. A fourth, quarterback Ryan
Mossakowski (2009), transferred without ever through a pass in
a game.
While stars are not always a perfect barometer of talent, fans
are responding to the team’s efforts. The 2014 Spring Game had
more than 50,000 fans show up to support the ‘Cats and since
Commonwealth Stadium expanded in 1999, UK has ranked in the
nation’s top 25 in attendance 11 times. 2013 saw the nation’s
second-largest improvement in per-game average attendance,
up 9,781 from to 59,372. Additional momentum has been
generated with the recently approved $120 million renovation of
Commonwealth stadium that will include planned additions in the
form of a multi-purpose recruiting room, new home team and
press facilities, and new team store and new full-service kitchen.
On October 31st, 2014, fresh off a win over the University of South
Carolina to snap a 17-game conference skid, Coach Stoops was
rewarded with a contract extension through the 2020 season.

OVERVIEW (VIA JOYCE JULIUS & ASSOCIATES NAMING RIGHTS SPONSOR EXPOSURE PROJECTION)
This report showcases the projected quantitative exposure a corporation is expected to receive via name-in-title sponsorship rights of the University of Kentucky’s Commonwealth
Stadium on an annual basis. Impressions and exposure values stemming from television news coverage, print media, Internet news coverage monitored for one calendar year
provide the benchmark for the projection. Additionally, two 2014 home game telecasts were measured for potential sponsor exposure with those findings projected for a full season,
while local television and radio football programming is also included. Finally, on-site impact, as well as promotions, generating exposure for a potential stadium sponsor are likewise
detailed within this analysis.
TELEVISION EVENT COVERAGE
Ø  Joyce Julius & Associates, Inc. monitored the SEC Network’s telecast of the home
Kentucky football game on August 30, 2014, as well as ESPNU’s coverage of the contest
from September 6, 2014 for in-broadcast exposure received by “Commonwealth
Stadium”
LOCAL TELEVISION PROGRAMMING
Ø  Airings of 15 Coach Shows, along with recruiting, pre-season and bowl game specials—
appearing on WBKO, WTVW, WYMT, WSAZ, WKYT and WYMO—feature various mentions of
the stadium. It is projected each airing will average three mentions of the facility.
TELEVISION NEWS COVERAGE
Ø  Cision, Inc., which reviews news programming appearing in all 210 U.S. markets, was
contracted to monitor closed-captioning exposure appearing on broadcasts throughout
the country mentioning Commonwealth Stadium from April 1, 2013 through March 30,
2014.
ü  CBS Sports Network, ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU all referenced Commonwealth
Stadium
ü  223 programs in the Lexington, KY market produced 27% of the TV News
exposure value
LOCAL RADIO PROGRAMMING
Ø  Airings of 15 Coach Shows and seven home game radio broadcast— appearing on 59
stations throughout Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia—feature various mentions of the
stadium
PRINT MEDIA
Ø  Print media was monitored Commonwealth Stadium exposure in conjunction with Lexis
Nexis, which analyzes more than 3,000 U.S. and International daily/weekly publications.
Publications were monitored from August 1, 2013 through July 31, 2014.
ü  214 articles referencing the stadium appeared during September (most for
the year)

ON-SITE IMPACT/PROMOTIONS
Ø  Various exterior signage locations, as well as printed materials, will provide a corporation with significant exposure. To determine on-site
impressions, an equation that factors the stadium's attendance and the number of at-site exposure opportunities is utilized. Total impressions
stemming from on-site assets are determined via the following formula:
# DISTRIBUTED/PLACEMENTS X ATTENDANCE X RECOGNITION GRADE = TOTAL IMPRESSIONS
Ø  Recognition Grade factors were derived for each On-Site element. Data used within the assets were established via such sources as traffic counts,
published research on premium acceptance and usage, as well as proprietary Joyce Julius and Associates survey research. The following provides
examples of the Recognition Grade factors:
{1 (100%), 2 (70%), 3 (50%), 4 (30%), 5 (10%)}
Ø  Recognition Grades are based on the following criteria
1.  Location of the element/asset/inventory
2.  Size/Clarity of the element/asset/inventory
3.  Quality of the item
4.  Duration of the Event
5.  Type of Event where the Distribution Took Place
ü  Signage
ü  Printed Materials
ü  Online Advertising

including a dinner on the field for the top selling dealership and autographed jersey and trip for two (2) to an away conference game for the top selling sales associates
– is a great way to advance the brand and strategically align the partner and its shareholders with the property (UK).

surrounding downtown district With a holistic sport sponsorship footprint that covers a diverse array of events, athletes, properties and professional organizations across all
leagues and conferences, Toyota spent 85% of their total sponsorship budget ($191 million) in 2013-2014. The following naming rights agreement was developed through

outpaced the national average of 62%.
•  RECOGNITION:
•  Inc. Magazine ranked Big Ass Fansas the fastest growing manufacturing company in Kentucky as part of its annual publication of the 5,000 fastest growing private
companies in the United States. Big Ass Fans was also ranked the eighth fastest growing private company in Kentucky and the second fastest growing company in the

•  Consulting-Specifying Engineer has honored Essence by Big Ass Fans with a gold award in its 2014 Product of the Year competition. Ranging from 8 to 14 feet in
diameter and fully customizable, Essence is the first Big Ass Fan specifically developed to excel both indoors and out. Essence provides quiet air movement in a variety
of air-conditioned spaces, such as showrooms and lobbies, and does the work of 28 standard ceiling fans at one-seventh of the operating cost. The air movement
from Essence can reduce a facility’s heating and cooling costs up to 30% without compromising comfort (bigassfans.com).
•  The World Trade Center Kentucky honored Big Ass Fans with the prestigious Martha Layne Collins International Trade Excellence Award. Named after Kentucky’s first
female governor, this annual award distinguishes companies demonstrating outstanding success in international business.The award honored Big Ass Fans’
commitment to and performance in international trade and business, as well as the company’s overall contributions to the local community through world trade.
STRATEGIC OPPORTUNITIES FOR GROWTH:
•  RESIDENTIAL INTEGRATION WITH NEST LEARNING THERMOSTAT: Although founded on the bases of providing industrial cooling and comfort solutions to different companies
and properties, Big Ass Fans’ Haiku fan – named most innovative new product of the year in 2013 by the U.S. Green Building Council at their inaugural Best of Building Awards –
has the potential to carve out a niche in the residential space through it’s integration with the SenseME smart ceiling fan and Nest Learning Thermostat made by Google. With a
fan and an air conditioner that talked to each other and both automatically adjusted to user temperature preferences, there’s potential to run a thermostat at a higher
temperature compensated and offset by the cooling effect of the fan. Carey Smith, CEO of Big Ass Solutions who won the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in 2011
for South Central Ohio and Kentucky, notes that the Haiku “smart” fan has the ability to turn on and off automatically when a person enters or leaves the room while also
adjusting the fan’s speed depending on the room’s current climate and preferences it learns over time. Operating on only two to 30 watts of power – less than an incadescent
light bulb – Haiku could allow residents to raise their thermostat by six degrees and save 30% on air conditioning at the same level of comfort. For the average home, this
translates to annual savings of nearly 600 kilowatt hours or $78 based on current electricity rates. There are 300 million ceiling fans in the U.S. – an average of three to four
per home. “Smart” Haiku fans will begin shipping in the summer of 2014. (fastcoexist.com)

ABOUT
•  Charter, founded in 1993, created a customer service-oriented company that has grown and evolved on many levels over the past two decades. Charter's growth was achieved
through acquisitions of cable properties and the subsequent increase of customers in those communities, as well as development and launch of new products and services.
Charter became a publicly-traded company on NASDAQ in 1999 and has been a Fortune 500 company since 2001.
•  A leading broadband communications company and the fourth-largest cable operator in the United States, Charter today employs more than 21,000 and provides services to more
than 5.7 million customers in 29 states. Headquartered in Stamford, CT, the company is focused on integrating the highest-quality service with clearly superior entertainment and
communications products, including bundled packages. Over the years, billions have been invested in the communities Charter serves through infrastructure upgrades to deliver
video, high-speed Internet and phone service to homes and businesses. Current portfolio: video (49%), internet (27%), commercial (10%), telephone (8%), ad. revenue (4%)
•  The company reported 2013 sales of $8.1 billion, up 9% year-over-year, continuing its solid revenue growth over the past decade. Results were driven primarily by an increase in
residential Internet customers and Triple Play customers that subscribe to cable, Internet, and phone service. However, Charter reported a loss of $169 million in 2013, an
improvement over the loss of $304 million the prior year in FY ‘12. Its sales are not sufficient to cover operating expenses, debt-related interest (the company has $14.2 billion in
debt), and the investments needed to keep its network up-to-date.
INVOLVEMENT WITH KENTUCKY
•  ESPN and Charter Communications reached an agreement for distribution of the SEC Network that launched on August 14, 2014. The network will be available to fans and followers
of the Southeastern Conference in all Charter markets. Subscribers will also have authenticated access to additional live events scheduled for the SEC Network's digital platforms,
including WatchESPN and SECNetwork.com, with the ability to watch content anytime, anywhere on their television, computer, tablet or mobile device

RECENT EXPANSION/FINANCIAL NEWS
•  In early 2014, Charter made an attempt to acquire Time Warner Cable, the nation’s second-largest cable provider. However, rival Comcast ultimately agreed to a stock swap to
obtain TWC, one that valued at $45.2 billion as of February 13, 2014 when the proposed acquisition was first made public. In an effort to comply with federal regulations and the FCC,
Charter Communications and Comcast announced a deal in April that would transfer cable and internet services in areas of Kentucky currently covered by Time Warner Cable to
Charter. As of April 29, 2014 the Lexington market is set to be supplied by St. Louis-based Charter as part of the large swap and restructuring aimed at making the proposed Time
Warner Cable absorption into Comcast palatable for regulators (bizlex.com). As part of Comcast merging with Time Warner, Comcast was ordered to divest about 3 million
subscribers to Charter in order to combat any antitrust concerns and keep its market share to less than 30%. Once the Comcast/Time Warner merger is complete, Charter
will find itself with about 9 million customers, making it the nation’s second-largest cable company.
•  In 2013 the company increased its offerings and expands into new markets, purchasing Optimum West/Bresnan from Cablevision for about $1.6 billion.
Optimum West serves more than 360,000 customers through cable systems in fast-growing regions of Colorado,
Montana, Wyoming, and Utah. The company acquired broadbandcable assets in Alabama and Georgia in 2011 from
Windjammer Communications (adding about 17,000 subscribers), and a broadband system serving nearly
that number in Missouri from US Cable of Coastal Texas.

JMI/UK Athletics Naming Rights Partner Valuation

  • 1.
  • 2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On June 23rd, 2014 the University of Kentucky (UK) announced that JMI Sports had been awarded UK’s athletics and campus multimedia marketing rights with a 15-year, $210 million deal. An innovator in sales, marketing, and project management services to university properties including the Southeastern Conference (SEC), Alabama, North Carolina, Oregon, Auburn, Syracuse and many more, UK serves as the first client for which JMI will operate as the third-party multi- media rights holder. For the University, priorities in signing the agreement included the ability to have a network and platform that allowed fans to absolutely stay in contact with the pulse of Wildcat Athletics, the successes by student-athletes, as well as the campus-wide initiatives that are taking place to advance the mission of UK. Additionally, Kentucky Athletics looked to take proactive measures toward ensuring the competitive health of student-athletes and coaches by equipping them with the resources necessary to compete at the highest level not only against conference peers but on the national landscape. A core component of the RFP process and bid selection of JMI Sports was the ability to expand and deliver a first-class experience for fans, donors, alumni, alike through enhancement of campus and athletic facilities. With 67 corporate naming rights within the intercollegiate athletics space, specifically 18 football facilities, UK Athletics and JMI sought to explore the identification, validation, and valuation of prospective naming rights partners for Commonwealth Stadium, home of the Kentucky football. Specifically, our charge was to create assets that extend the reach and benefits for a naming rights partner beyond the stadium, potentially transcending Athletics and reaching the student body and alumni base as part of a truly holistic, comprehensive agreement. In looking at the initial list of properties considered, prospective partners where vetted on the basis of management ties to UK, either via the K-Fund or affinity for the university as alumni, prior relationships or philanthropic initiatives with the University and campus units, past involvement in sport (conducted through Sports Business Journal), degree of consumer insights uncovered through Scarborough research, and the financial capacity to enter into a possible naming rights deal. After researching an initial list of 31 companies comprised of regional businesses and those who were expanding their footprint into the region, 11 were tabbed as attractive and worthy of full-scale valuation through the development of activation strategies that includes static signage, in-game inventory, digital assets, printed advertising, entertainment options, and other peripheral opportunities that uniquely and strategically advanced the corporate initiatives and objectives of these partners. Through the use of Navigate Research’s Navigator valuation tool, the portfolio of activation elements for each organization (Ashland/Valvoline, Big Ass Solutions, Central Bank, Dish Network, Humana, Kentucky Farm Bureau, Tempur-Pedic/Tempur-Seally, Toyota) were valued at their fair market value, each of which is outlined in detail in the pages of this report. Additionally, Joyce Julius & Associates, Inc. conducted an independent valuation that showcased the projected quantitative exposure a corporate naming rights agreement would be expected to receive via name-in-title sponsorship rights of Commonwealth Stadium via impression stemming from television news coverage, print media, internet news coverage, as well as home game telecasts on the newly formed SEC Network. Total exposure from research is expected to produce roughly 318.6 million impressions annually valued at $8.02 million. Combined with a program that under the direction of second-year head coach, Mark Stoops, is starting to translate success on the recruiting trail to success on the football field, there’s opportunity for prospective partners to creatively reach a passionate demographic of Wildcat fans through a naming rights agreement that would be the first of its kind in the Southeastern Conference.
  • 3. UK FOOTBALL: AT-A-GLANCE 2 There’s been a budding excitement around Lexington and the Kentucky Wildcat football program. Now in his second year with the Wildcats, Stoops has already won more games (five) this season than the previous two seasons combined (two each in 2012 and 2013). The future is bright for continued progress, given the recruiting success of Stoops and his coaching staff. With a full year to recruit the 2014 signing group, the Kentucky coaches landed a consensus top-25 class, including a No. 17 ranking by Rivals.com, UK’s highest-rated class in the Internet era of recruiting evaluation. Since he took the reins at Kentucky, Stoops has signed or presently has commitments from 17 players that are ranked as four-star prospects. From 2002 (the first year of the Rivals recruiting data base) through 2012, Kentucky signed only 14 total prospects ranked as four stars. Three of those four- star prospects signed in the pre-Stoops period – Demetrius Goode (2006), D.J. Stafford (2007) and Alex Smith (2010) – never played a down of football at UK. A fourth, quarterback Ryan Mossakowski (2009), transferred without ever through a pass in a game. While stars are not always a perfect barometer of talent, fans are responding to the team’s efforts. The 2014 Spring Game had more than 50,000 fans show up to support the ‘Cats and since Commonwealth Stadium expanded in 1999, UK has ranked in the nation’s top 25 in attendance 11 times. 2013 saw the nation’s second-largest improvement in per-game average attendance, up 9,781 from to 59,372. Additional momentum has been generated with the recently approved $120 million renovation of Commonwealth stadium that will include planned additions in the form of a multi-purpose recruiting room, new home team and press facilities, and new team store and new full-service kitchen. On October 31st, 2014, fresh off a win over the University of South Carolina to snap a 17-game conference skid, Coach Stoops was rewarded with a contract extension through the 2020 season.

Essence provides quiet air movement in a variety of air-conditioned spaces, such as showrooms and lobbies, and does the work of 28 standard ceiling fans at one-seventh of the operating cost. The air movement from Essence can reduce a facility’s heating and cooling costs up to 30% without compromising comfort (bigassfans.com). •  The World Trade Center Kentucky honored Big Ass Fans with the prestigious Martha Layne Collins International Trade Excellence Award. Named after Kentucky’s first female governor, this annual award distinguishes companies demonstrating outstanding success in international business.The award honored Big Ass Fans’ commitment to and performance in international trade and business, as well as the company’s overall contributions to the local community through world trade. STRATEGIC OPPORTUNITIES FOR GROWTH: •  RESIDENTIAL INTEGRATION WITH NEST LEARNING THERMOSTAT: Although founded on the bases of providing industrial cooling and comfort solutions to different companies and properties, Big Ass Fans’ Haiku fan – named most innovative new product of the year in 2013 by the U.S. Green Building Council at their inaugural Best of Building Awards – has the potential to carve out a niche in the residential space through it’s integration with the SenseME smart ceiling fan and Nest Learning Thermostat made by Google. With a fan and an air conditioner that talked to each other and both automatically adjusted to user temperature preferences, there’s potential to run a thermostat at a higher temperature compensated and offset by the cooling effect of the fan. Carey Smith, CEO of Big Ass Solutions who won the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in 2011 for South Central Ohio and Kentucky, notes that the Haiku “smart” fan has the ability to turn on and off automatically when a person enters or leaves the room while also adjusting the fan’s speed depending on the room’s current climate and preferences it learns over time. Operating on only two to 30 watts of power – less than an incadescent light bulb – Haiku could allow residents to raise their thermostat by six degrees and save 30% on air conditioning at the same level of comfort. For the average home, this translates to annual savings of nearly 600 kilowatt hours or $78 based on current electricity rates. There are 300 million ceiling fans in the U.S. – an average of three to four per home. “Smart” Haiku fans will begin shipping in the summer of 2014.
