Discussing moving CF and CESC (Clinton Executive Service Corp) office personnel to Water St.

Question 2 CVC, BC, HRC and others have expressed the desire to move our Harlem personnel (10 total and all employed by CESC) to Water Street now. I have David Beale exploring the options of fitting them in with the 18th floor at Water street including related costs and possible displacement of CF related but separately incorporated entities in the following order: AHG, CHAI, CGSGI. I expect to get his proposal sometime next week. Some considerations before we decide:

a. Do we want to move these personnel from Harlem? Keep in mind that we risk exposure because it will mean GSA is paying for an empty 8600 square feet until August 2014, our first out option. We have landlords who aren't happy we moved most of our operations out of their building and wouldn't mind leaking an empty floor to the press.

b. If we are okay with taking the exposure risk, do we envision the auditors coming back and recommending (and BC accepting) that CESC should not operate within CF space even with a sub-lease agreement?
