Apple Campus 2

development east o North Tantau Avenue andapproximately 300,000 square eet west o North

Tantau. The 600,000 square eet o o ice, research anddevelopment space will comprise Phase 2, which isscheduled to commence construction ater Phase 1 iscompleted. These additional buildings will house oiceand research and development unctions that need tobe located adjacent to the Main Building, and will besupported with approximately 1,740 parking spaces.

Integration and uniication o the currently dividedparcels will be achieved by reclaiming PruneridgeAvenue as green space. Access to the HamptonsApartments rom North Wole Road at PruneridgeAvenue will remain.

The project replaces existing asphalt and hardscapewith over 100 acres o landscaped green space. Thelandscape design o meadows and woodlands willcreate an ecologically rich oak savanna reminiscento the early Santa Clara Valley. It will incorporate bothyoung and mature trees, and native and droughttolerant plants, that will thrive in Santa Clara Countywith minimal water consumption. The increase inpermeable suraces will promote natural drainageand improve water quality in Calabazas Creek. Thethoughtul and extensive landscaping will recallCupertinos pre-agricultural and agricultural past,

which will be urther acknowledged by preserving andrelocating the Glendenning Barn to a more appropriateon or o-site setting.

Apple Campus 2 will promote creativity andcollaboration by consolidating up to 14,200 Appleemployees in one location. Apple will continue tooccupy the existing Ininite Loop Campus, as well asother buildings within Cupertino.

The project generally aligns with Cupertinos existingplanning ramework set orth in its General Plan, andthe policies established or the Vallco Park NorthEmployment Center. It maintains the residentialneighborhoods, minimizes additional inrastructuredemands and expands the existing perimeterprotection to meet Apples security needs. The projectwill strengthen Cupertinos competitive position inSilicon Valley and help Apple continue to attract theindustrys leading talent.

Apple Campus 2 will become a model or the 21stcentury workplace a antastic place to work, to create,to collaborate, and to shape uture technology.

Apple proposes to create Apple Campus 2 - an integrated,uniied and secure 21st Century campus surrounded

by green space. This new development will provide aserene environment relecting Apples brand values oinnovation, ease o use and beauty. The entire 176-acresite will be redeveloped with sustainable, state-o-the-artoice, research and development acilities. The projectreplaces the current disjointed assemblage o agingcorporate acilities with a single high perormance oice,research and development building, with supportingacilities. The buildings are located in a uniied and securelandscape, which extends and connects the interiorworkplaces to outdoor acilities or relaxation, recreationand relection. The entire Campus, indoors and out, isintended to promote shared creativity and collaboration,

and spur invention o the next several generations oApple products.

Apple selected the internationally renowned architecturalirm Foster + Partners, headed by Norman Foster, asarchitects. Foster + Partners has drawn upon its globalleadership in sustainability and design to help achieveApples goals.

The signature Main Building accommodates up to 12,000employees and comprises approximately 2.8 millionsquare eet in our stories, resulting in a signiicantreduction o overall building ootprint when compared

to the acilities that exist on the site. The Main Building islocated and designed to minimize the visual impact onadjacent residential neighborhoods and to enhance theexisting deep landscape setbacks at the periphery.

Campus amenities will include a striking restaurantwithin the Main Building, a separate Corporate FitnessCenter comprising approximately 100,000 square eet,and a 1,000-seat Corporate Auditorium comprisingapproximately 120,000 square eet.

There will be approximately 10,980 parking spaces. Othese, approximately 9,240 parking spaces will serve themain site o Apple Campus 2. The parking spaces on theMain Building site will be divided between a basementbelow the Main Building and an above-grade parkingstructure situated along I-280. The Campus will eature aCentral Plant that is integrated with the parking structureand serves all buildings on the Main Building site.

In addition, oice and research acilities accommodatingup to 2,200 employees and comprising approximately600,000 square eet will be located along North TantauAvenue, with approximately 300,000 square eet o



Project Objectives

o Minimize use o potable water through usingrecycled water, i available as a result o

projects now under consideration, and improveruno by increasing permeable suraces.

o Enable a commuting culture where thoughtulsite planning and regional connectivitycoupled with a robust TDM program prioritizetransit and active commute modes.

o Exceed economic, social, and environmentalsustainability goals through integrated designand development.

o Enhance the Citys tax base.

o Create a campus that reects Apples businessand design practices, and allows or a long-

term presence in Cupertino.

Location

The approximately 176-acre site is bounded by I-280,North Wole Road, East Homestead Road and North

Tantau Avenue, as shown on Exhibit A-6 and describedmore ully in Exhibit A-7. The Campus also includesparcels located to the east and west o North TantauAvenue.

Apple Campus 2 will result in replacement andrebuilding o the entire approximately 176-acre site with

a mix o oce, research and development and ancillaryland uses. The main objective o the project is toredevelop the site with a new, unifed, secure and privateApple campus. The projects specifc objectives are to:

Primary Objectives

o Create an innovative and beautiul campus nearApples Infnite Loop acility that consolidatesup to 14,200 o Apples engineers and supportpersonnel in a single distinctive oce, researchand development building with supportingacilities. The purpose o consolidation within

a single building set in a secure landscape is topromote shared creativity and collaboration,and spur invention o the next severalgenerations o Apple products.

o Achieve the security and privacy required orthe invention o new products by eliminatingany public access through the site, andprotecting the perimeters against trespassers.

Secondary Objectives:

o Maximize the provision o green space, anddesign this space in accordance with the climate

and history o the area.o Provide on-site amenities or Apples employees

in order to promote employees health and well-being and reduce o-campus travel.

o Provide an on-site venue or the introduction oApples new products that will generate surpriseand delight, and enable the products to beintroduced at Apples corporate home.

o Create a physically unifed campus communitythat improves internal circulation and eliminatesunnecessary access points by consolidating theexisting properties within one campus.

o Create a campus plan that incorporatesexibility to respond to Apples uture businessneeds.

o Achieve a net zero energy developmentby constructing energy ecient buildings,generating a signifcant amount o the Campusenergy rom on-site renewable sources, anddeveloping partnerships with renewable energyproviders or grid-purchased renewable energy.



Apple anticipates commencing constructionimmediately ater approval and expects construction

to be completed by the summer o 2016. This schedulemay be modifed to meet Apples business needs.

As indicated, Apple Campus 2 replaces the currentoutdated oce, research and development buildings.

The result is an incremental net new development, asdescribed in Table 1.

Site

Although there will be an incremental increase ingross oce and research and development oor areao approximately 20%, the ecient use o the main

site will result in almost tripling the landscaped area.Underground and structured parking will replace9,220 surace parking spaces creating almost threetimes more open space. The new open space will bedeveloped using native and drought tolerant treesand landscaped to minimize water consumption. Theincreased permeability will assist in controlling sitewater run-o and help to improve local water quality.

The sloping site will be re-graded to provide a levelground oor or the Main Building.

Transportation and Parking

Replacement and rebuilding the outdated existingacilities provide the opportunity to consolidate twenty-

our driveways into ten access points, thereby advancingthe Citys policy on managing access to major streets.The proposed access and circulation plan will reduce theimpact on trac associated with numerous driveways,eliminate conicts that jeopardize saety or pedestrians,bicyclists and motorists, enhance emergency access tothe site and simpliy way fnding.

Site Access

Primary vehicular access to the site or employeesand visitors will be via a new intersection locatedapproximately 260 eet north o the intersection o

North Wole Road and Pruneridge Avenue, therebyallowing separation o Campus trac rom HamptonsApartments trac. This new intersection will have a 3-leg(tee) confguration. The eastern leg will be a new privateservice road inside the main Campus site. This serviceroad will provide access to the visitor parking area, belowgrade parking garage and parking structure located nearthe southern boundary o the site.

A secondary access point is provided on North TantauAvenue, north o Calabazas Creek. This access servesthe above-grade parking structure, as well as providingservice access to the Central Plant, the Corporate

Auditorium, additional access to the garage beneath theMain Building, maintenance access to Calabazas Creekand secondary emergency fre access to the HamptonsApartments. This intersection also provides access to thesites property located east o North Tantau Avenue andnorth o Calabazas Creek.

The properties located south o Calabazas Creek, as wellas east and west o North Tantau Avenue, will have theirown dedicated intersection and site access points.

Apples employee shuttles and service and deliveryvehicles access the site rom an intersection on North

Tantau Avenue south o East Homestead Road. Thisintersection provides access to the projects Corporate

Transit Center or Apples employees adjacent to NorthTantau Avenue. Access to the loading dock area is viaseparate driveways along North Tantau Avenue.

A service and emergency access point to the CorporateFitness Center is located on an existing curb cut on EastHomestead Road.

Multiple pedestrian and bicycle access points areprovided in order to encourage employees to travel

to the site on oot, bicycle and public transportation.Apple employees traveling by oot or on bicycle mayaccess the site adjacent to the primary entrance onNorth Wole Road, where public transit stops, and justnorth o the projects service entrance on North TantauAvenue. Additional pedestrian and bicycle access willbe provided adjacent to the Corporate Fitness Center,the Corporate Auditorium and on North Tantau Avenuenorth and south o Calabazas Creek.

On-Site Circulation and Emergency Access

A private internal service road will connect rom North

Wole Road to North Tantau Avenue. This service roadwill provide access to the visitor parking area, below-grade parking garage and parking structure located nearthe southern boundary o the site.

A security plaza will be built east o North Wole Road,beyond which only employees or credentialed visitorswill be granted access. Beyond the security plaza, theservice road will enter a below grade tunnel rom whichtwo below-grade intersections will provide access to thebelow-grade parking garage. The service road will thanrise to grade and turn south to provide access to theabove-grade parking structure and ultimately to connect

to the vehicle access point at North Tantau Avenue,north o Calabazas Creek. Employee entry rom North

Tantau Avenue includes a secondary security plaza.

Emergency responders access the site rom the primaryaccess point via North Wole Road, the secondaryemployee access point rom North Tantau Avenue, aswell as the Corporate Auditorium and the CorporateFitness Center entry points. The Hamptons Apartmentsprimary emergency vehicle access rom North WoleRoad via Pruneridge Avenue remains in the samelocation, and a new secondary emergency access tothe complex is provided rom the service road at thesouthern boundary o the site.



Vacation o Pruneridge AvenueMost o Pruneridge Avenue will be vacated. This vacation

will create a physically unifed campus communitythat respects Apples security and privacy needs byeliminating public access through the Campus, and it willimprove internal circulation.

Pruneridge Avenue will remain open rom its intersectionwith North Wole Road to the entrance to the HamptonsApartments. This segment o Pruneridge Avenuewould unction principally as access to the HamptonsApartments, as well as serve vehicles exiting rom theApple Campus 2 visitor security kiosk. Trac demand onthis segment o Pruneridge Avenue would be reducedrom existing conditions, allowing the roadway to be

reduced to two lanes.

Through trac ormerly using Pruneridge Avenue isrouted to parallel acilities including East HomesteadRoad, Vallco Parkway and Stevens Creek Boulevard. Oneexisting transit route on Pruneridge Avenue requiresre-routing to utilize Vallco Parkway and North TantauAvenue. Similarly, closure o the existing bike lanes onPruneridge Avenue will require bicyclists to use the bikelanes on East Homestead Road, or to travel down animproved North Tantau Avenue to Vallco Parkway. Utilitieslocated beneath Pruneridge Avenue will be relocated.

The second emergency access point or the HamptonsApartments o North Tantau Avenue will be rerouted viaApples service road north o the Creek.

O-Site ImprovementsApple proposes to improve North Wole Road byadding additional lanes that increase both capacity andstorage and maintain the Citys Level o Service (LOS)standard. Lanes added to North Wole Road include twosouthbound let turn lanes at the new site entrance,an additional northbound lane rom I-280 to the newsite entrance, and an additional right turn lane on theI-280 northbound o ramp. North Tantau Avenue will bewidened in the vicinity o the employee entrance on theeast side o the site.

North Wole Road will be widened to provide ourcontinuous through lanes and one shared through/rightturn lane at Pruneridge Avenue. The proposed wideningwould occur entirely on the eastern side o the NorthWole Road. The I-280 northbound o- ramp to the northwould be widened to provide a second right turn lane.

The I-280 southbound o-ramp to the south will bewidened as well.

A northbound Class II bicycle lane will be providedadjacent to the curb on North Wole Road betweenI-280 and Pruneridge Avenue. Approaching PruneridgeAvenue, the bicycle lane will shit west with the throughtrac, to avoid conict with vehicles turning rightinto the main Campus north o Pruneridge Avenue.Northbound bicyclists will cross the main Campusentrance in a dedicated Class II bike lane and the bikelane will transition back adjacent to the curb north othe entrance. Additionally a Class I bike lane will beprovided rom midway between I-280 and PruneridgeAvenue to the AC2 Site Entry or cyclists wishing to enter

the Campus.

At the intersection o North Wole Road and PruneridgeAvenue, the eastern leg o the intersection will bereduced in width to three lanes (one lane in and twolanes out).

A new three-legged (tee) intersection will be createdapproximately 260 eet north o the intersectiono North Wole Road and Pruneridge Avenue. Thenorthbound North Wole Road approach will consisto three through lanes and two right turn lanes. Thesouthbound North Wole Road approach will consist

o three through lanes and two let turn lanes withapproximately 330 eet o storage. Widening o NorthWole Road will accommodate the additional lanes. Theproposed widening ater Pruneridge Avenue will occurentirely on the east side o the roadway within the City-owned right-o-way and on Apple-owned property.

North Tantau Avenue will be widened north and south oCalabazas Creek and north o the I-280 overcrossing. Thewidening will allow or a fve-lane cross-section south othe employee access intersection. The bridge over I-280will be reconfgured to consist o our trac lanes withbike lanes in both directions and sidewalks on both sideso the street.



Parking

There will be approximately 10,980 parking

spaces provided within Apple Campus 2. O these,approximately 9,240 employee parking spaces willserve the main site o Apple Campus 2, and about1,740 employee parking spaces will serve the TantauDevelopment sites.

While Apple Campus 2 will be Apples center orresearch and development, 1 Infnite Loop will remainthe primary location or visitors. Apple Campus 2 willprovide visitor parking spaces with access directly romthe new Apple-dedicated entrance point o NorthWole Road. The careul management o parking is anessential component o Apples Transportation Demand

Management program. The specifcs related to parkingare as ollows:

o Main Building Employee Basement Parking:

Approximately 2,385 employee parking spaceswill be located in the Main Building basement.

There are two vehicular access points oremployees to the B1 level with internal ramps tothe B2 level.

o Main Site Employee Parking Structure:Approximately 5,870 employee parking spaceswill be accommodated in a multi-story parking

structure along the southern edge o the site,adjacent to I-280.

o Tantau Parking Structure:Apple will provide about 765 parking spacesor visitors, employees and guests attendingevents at the Corporate Auditorium in a parkingstructure. Sixty additional valet parking spacesare available or event days.

o Wole and Tantau Visitor Parking: Therewill be two visitor parking lots on site.

Approximately 135 surace parking spaces willbe provided in a secure zone within the siteaccessible rom North Wole Road. Access to thisarea is controlled by a manned security kiosk,which also monitors pedestrian and bicycleaccess into the site. The location o this visitorparking lot is just south o the Apple Campus 2driveway. About 150 additional parking spacesor visitors are provided in the Tantau ParkingStructure.

o Tantau Development Parking:There will beapproximately 1,740 employee parking spaces

located east and west o North Tantau Avenueserving the Phase 2 development.



Recommended Bicycle Access ImprovementsThe ollowing is an overview o the recommended

bicycle acilities on streets adjacent to the campus. Therecommended improvements include the ollowingtreatments:

Bike LanesBike lanes are defned as a portion o the roadwaythat has been designated by striping, signage, andpavement markings or the preerential or exclusive useo bicyclists. Bike lanes are recommended on NorthWole Road, Pruneridge Avenue, and Homestead Road.

This section o the corridor includes conventional bikelanes where there is not enough right-o-way to include

enhanced treatments such as buered bikeways.

Buered Bike Lanes

A buered bike lane, also called an enhanced bike laneis a bike lane that is buered by a striped shy zonebetween the bike lane and the moving vehicle lane.With the shy zone, the buered lane oers a morecomortable riding environment or bicyclists who preernot to ride adjacent to trac. This design has a numbero benefts including:

o Provides greater shy distance between cars and

bicyclists.

o Provides space or bicyclists to pass each other.

o Provides greater space or the bicycle travel lanewithout making the lane appear so wide that itmay be mistaken or car use.

o Appeals to not just experienced bicyclists, butpeople who bicycle on occasion and those newto bicycling.

Buered bike lanes are recommended on North TantauAvenue and Vallco Parkway.

The recommended buered bike lane design is the samedesign as a recently implemented Caltrans bueredbikeway on Sloat Boulevard in San Francisco and is amodifed version o the design guidance presented inthe NACTO (National Association o City TransportationOcials) Urban Bikeway Design Guide. The keydierence is the proposed design has an inner dashedstripe; this will permit vehicles to cross when necessary,or example to enter or exit driveways.

Bike BoxesA bike box is generally a right angle extension to a bike

lane at the head o a signalized intersection. The bikebox allows bicyclists to get to the ront o the tracqueue on a red light and proceed frst when that signalturns green. The bike box can also act as a storage areai heavy bicycle trac exists. The bike box can alsoacilitate let turning movements or bicyclists who usethe two stage turn. Motor vehicles must stop behind thewhite stop line at the rear o the bike box. Bike boxesshould be located at signalized intersections only. Bikeboxes can be combined with intersection through bikelanes or green light situations to remind vehicles tobe aware o bicyclists. This treatment is not a Caltransapproved trac control device, however the City can

apply to Caltrans or approval to experiment.

Bike boxes are recommended at:

o Northbound N Wole Ave at Pruneridge Ave

o Westbound Homestead Rd at N Tantau Ave

o Westbound Pruneridge Ave at N Tantau Ave

Two Stage Turn Boxes

Two-stage turn boxes assist bicyclists with makinglet turns at multi-lane intersections. This treatment istypically applied on multi-lane streets with high tracspeeds and/or volumes. It provides a number o beneftsincluding:

o Improves bicyclist comort.

o Provides ormal waiting area or bicyclistsmaking let turns outside o the crosswalk.

The two stage turn box is recommended on N. Wole Aveat Pruneridge Ave.

This treatment is not a Caltrans approved trac controldevice, however the City can apply to Caltrans orapproval to experiment.

Bicycle Access



Intersection Crossing MarkingsIntersection crossing markings are an extension o the

bicycle lane through an intersection. This bike laneextension has a number o benefts, including:

o Enables bicyclists to correctly positionthemselves to the let o right turn lanes or tothe right o let turn lanes.

o Reduces conict between turning motorists andbicycle through trac.

o Provides bicyclists with guidance to ollow thepreerred travel path.

o Alerts motorists to expect and yield to mergingbicycle trac.

Intersection crossing markings are recommended at:

o Northbound N Wole Ave at Pruneridge Ave

o Northbound N Wole Ave at Campus Entrance

o Westbound Homestead Rd at N Tantau Ave

o Westbound Pruneridge Ave at N Tantau Ave

Green Bike Lanes Through Conict Areas

Green bike lanes through conict areas is the applicationo green coloring applied to pavement in conict zones.Benefts o this treatment include:Alerts roadway users to expect bicyclists.Assigns the right o way to bicyclists.

The FHWA (Federal Highway Administration) hasprovided blanket approval or green colored pavementand Caltrans has also approved this treatment.

Green bike lanes through conict areas arerecommended at:

o N Wole Ave at all 280 ramps

o Northbound N Tantau Ave at parking lotentrances and approach to dedicated right turnlane at Homestead Rd

o N Tantau Ave at the Transit Center entrance/exit,loading area and parking lot entrances

Rapid Rectangular Flashing BeaconRectangular rapid ashing beacons (RRFB) are pedestrian

actuated devices mounted adjacent to the roadway.The beacon lights are rectangular LED lights installedbelow a pedestrian crosswalk sign that ash in analternating pattern when activated. The beacon is darkwhen not activated. Caltrans has received approval romthe Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) or use oRRFBs on a blanket basis at uncontrolled pedestrian andschool crosswalk locations in Caliornia, including Statehighways and all local jurisdictions roadways.

RRFBs are recommended at:

N Tantau Ave, two uncontrolled crosswalks at either end

o the Transit Center



Surrounding Streets Utility ImprovementsUtility connections or the project are likely to require

utility improvements in the surrounding streets.Preliminary studies and discussions with utility providersindicate that the ollowing improvements may berequired in the adjacent public streets:

o Power: Install new conduits with eeder circuitsrom the intersection o North Wole Road andEast Homestead to the Central Plant via NorthWole Road and Pruneridge Avenue. New eedercircuits may be required rom PG&Es distributionnetwork to the main site Central Plant and the

Tantau satellite plants.

o Recycled Water: Apple is discussing withthe City o Sunnyvale the possibility to bringa recycled water supply to the site. The mostlikely alignment would extend the line rom theexisting Sunnyvale Water Pollution Control Plantto the Apple Campus 2 along North Wole Road.

The above relocations are preliminary, subject toconfrmation with the utility providers during designcoordination and review.

Pruneridge Avenue Utility RelocationsThe Pruneridge Avenue street vacation requires the

relocation o existing utilities within its right-o-way.Preliminary studies and discussions with utility providersindicate that the ollowing improvements may berequired in the adjacent public streets:

o Sanitary Sewer: Upsize and deepen the existingsewers in North Wole Road (between PruneridgeAvenue and East Homestead Road) and in EastHomestead Road (between North Wole Roadand Tantau Avenue).

o Storm Drain : Upsize the existing storm drain inNorth Wole Road (between Pruneridge Avenue

and East Homestead Road). The design o thisstorm drain is pending hydraulic analysis andconsultation with the City.

o Water: Increase the size o the existing water linein East Homestead Road (between North WoleRoad and North Tantau Avenue).

o Power: Install new conduits rom the intersectiono North Wole Road and Pruneridge Avenue toNorth Tantau Avenue and Pruneridge Avenuevia North Wole Road, East Homestead Road andNorth Tantau Avenue.

o Gas: Install a gas pipe on Tantau Avenuebetween East Homestead Road and PruneridgeAvenue to maintain connectivity within PacifcGas and Electrics (PG&E) gas network.

o ICT: Install new conduits rom the intersectiono North Wole Road and Pruneridge Avenue toNorth Tantau Avenue and Pruneridge Avenuevia North Wole Road, East Homestead Road, andNorth Tantau Avenue.

Utilities



GradingThe intent o the site grading strategy is to:

o Locate buildings out o the ood plain zone, andoutside the top o the Calabazas Creek bank, suchthat the buildings will not be aected by Creekows during a 100-year storm event.

o Generally grade the site away rom the buildingstoward the perimeter streets so that site stormwater does not pose a ood risk to the buildings.

o Maintain a constant relationship between theelevation o the buildings and the surroundinglandscape.

o Integrate storm water management treatment

systems into the site grading strategy.o Import topsoil or planted areas.

o Balance cut and fll on site.

The ollowing areas o the Campus will require excavation:

o Two levels o basement parking located under theMain Building.

o Ramps to the underground parking and loadingdock storage areas.

o Excavation and oundations or the ParkingGarage and access tunnel.

o The basement elements o the CorporateAuditorium and Corporate Fitness Center.

o Site grading excavation.

o East and West o Tantau Oce, Research andDevelopment acilities.

Preliminary studies indicate a balanced site with no soil o-haul or the main site. Topsoil import will be required.

ConstructionApples construction protocol will promote the use

o alternative clean-burning uels, modern uel-eicient vehicles, and emissions reduction measuresin order to achieve a less than signiicant level o aircontaminants. Apple is still working on the details othese protocols.

Grading and Construction



Buildings

Main BuildingThe ocal point o the proposed development is the our-

story oce, research and development Main Buildingcomprising 2.8 million sq. t. gross oor area aboveground. This area also includes the in-building employeeservices, meeting spaces, oce entrance areas, andcirculation zones.

o Employee Restaurant and Dining Facilities:There will be a dining acility o about 60,000sq. t. with movable seating at ground level or2,100 occupants, as well as about 20,000 sq. t.o mezzanine space to seat an additional 600people, with 1,750 seats on terraces or outdoordining

o Meeting Rooms: Approximately 83,000 sq.t. o space will be dedicated to meeting andbreakout spaces within the communal zones othe building.

o Kitchen and Loading Dock: At the lowerbasement level, there will be a double-heightkitchen and service loading dock, which togetherhave a oor area o 130,000 sq. t. The kitchenis located directly under the restaurant, and theloading dock is located outside the ootprint othe Main Building above.

o Plant Rooms: There is 260,000 sq. t. o spaceallocated or mechanical rooms within the MainBuilding, some o which is located below-grade,and some o which is located within the roobuild-up above the 4th oor.

o Engineering and Testing Spaces:Approximately 15% o the Main Building area isallocated or technical support spaces.

Corporate Fitness Center

To the northwest o the Main Building, the proposedproject also includes a Corporate Fitness Center oapproximately 100,000 sq. t. or use by employees. It willcontain changing rooms, showers, laundry acilities, gymequipment, multi-purpose rooms or group classes andother related acilities.

Corporate AuditoriumAn assembly space with fxed seating or 1,000 people

is proposed or the southern part o the site comprisingabout 120,000 sq. t. with pedestrian access o NorthTantau Avenue, north o Calabazas Creek. The buildingalso will contain a large lobby space, restrooms, and someback-o-house acilities, including a catering kitchen.

The Corporate Auditorium will be served by 350 parkingspaces in the North Tantau Parking Structure.

Central PlantCo-location o services within a large integrateddevelopment will improve eciency over the currentdisjointed development. In addition to the mechanicalspace within the Main Building (primarily located under

the roo build-up), the project will locate the mechanicaland electrical equipment that serves buildings on themain site in one location, containing uel cells, back-upgenerators, chillers, condenser water storage, hot waterstorage, electrical substation, water and fre pumps.

Tantau Development Phase 2

Phase 2 includes 600,000 square eet o oice, researchand development buildings or up to 2,200 employeesalong North Tantau Avenue, providing lexibility toaddress uture business needs. Construction o Phase 2will ollow completion o Phase 1. The Tantau sites will

have small satellite plants.



Landscape

The Apple Campus 2 landscape ramework primarilycomprises landorms and vegetation ound in the Oak

Woodland and Oak Savanna that once were prevalent inthe area. Within this setting, the site is developed in ourdierent zones:

o Passively programmed Oak Savanna between the

Parking Structure and the Main Building

o Active recreation, sports, and fitness areas in the

northwest

o Pastoral and passive landscape in the northeast with

an outdoor dining terrace associated with the Main

Building Caf.

o More intensely used and developed inner courtyard

within the Main Building.

The inner courtyard combines natural and culturalelements, orchards and dining terraces, a large basin owater within a grove, an amphitheater within an orchardand woodlands, and numerous areas to walk, stroll,meet, rest, and work outdoors in shade or sun.

Ecological Context and Benefts:

o The Campus is located along the Pacifc Flyway.Complex woodland planting with layered understory

will provide urban habitat islands or manymigrating songbirds. The vast majority o the 309species to be planted in the new Campus are nativeto Caliornia. This diverse landscape will contributesignifcantly to the regional diversity o ora andauna.

o The plant list does not include any plants listedby the Caliornia Invasive Pest Council (CALIPC) asinvasive. Many o the existing plants on the siteare listed as noxious weeds by CALIPC and willbe removed and replaced with native plants; orexample, Cotoneaster and Pyracantha along the

perimeter will be replaced with Ceanothus spp. andManzanitas.

o 15 acres o contiguous Caliornia grassland will becreated as part o the Campus. All o these grassesare native to Caliornia. Dotted within the grasslandwill be occasional perennials and bulbs, the vastmajority o which are native to Caliornia.

o This is to be a low watered, climate appropriatelandscape. Irrigation will be applied to the Campusduring the dry season, but all plants (excluding thelimited amount o lawn) are drought tolerant and

will survive with minimal irrigation (1-2x/monthduring the dry season). Although approximately50% o the oaks on Campus are not native to

Caliornia, they are good, drought-adapted trees that

will unction well in this climate.

o Sudden Oak Death (SOD), an oak disease caused by

Phytophtera Ramorum, is currently impacting the

Coast Live Oak, Black Oak and Tan Oak populations

throughout Caliornia. Coast Live Oak is by ar the

most numerous oak species in the Santa Clara Valley,

but it is threatened by SOD. Species aected by

SOD are primarily the Red/Black Oaks. By increasing

the diversity o oaks on Campus to include a variety

o evergreen and deciduous oaks rom other oak

groups (White, Cerris, Intermediate), the Campus will

be more resilient to SOD and other diseases.o The existing Memorial Tree identifed in the arborist

report as Tree #1034 Memorial English Oak will

be transplanted to a public location along Tantau

Avenue near the Calabazas Creek.

o In addition to the Memorial Tree, eleven other

existing Specimen Trees, as identifed by the

arborists report, will be transplanted to new

locations on site and three Specimen Trees will

be preserved in place. The remaining fty-our

Specimen Trees to be removed will be replaced at a

two to one ratio.

Calabazas Creek Linkage

The pedestrian route along North Tantau Avenue

associated with Calabazas Creek (between Pruneridge

Avenue and Vallco Parkway) will be an improved

experience. The walkway itsel will provide more comort

and saety, improved materials, planting, and marked

bicycle lanes. New interpretative signage will be located

adjacent to Creek view sheds at the North Tantau Avenue

crossing, the I-280 overpass, and at the Vallco Parkway

crossing.

Within the 50-oot zone adjacent to the Calabazas Creekright-o-way, planting ollows guidelines and standards

or land use near streams rom both the Caliornia Native

Plant Society and the Santa Clara Valley Water Districts

Qualiying Plant List. The project includes only local

cultivars o native species along the Creek. Plans will be

reviewed with the Santa Clara Valley Water District or

fnal approval.

Soundwall

A soundwall along the northern side o the I-280 reeway

will protect the site rom noise pollution o the reeway.



Environmental Sustainability

Apples commitment to innovation and environmentalsustainability is provided through net zero energy

buildings, a climate-responsive design, a comprehensivemulti-modal transportation plan, a compact land usethat reduces building and parking ootprints and theheat island eect, and a landscape plan reminiscento the natural Caliornia landscape, including the useo native and drought-tolerant vegetation. Accessto daylight, views and natural ventilation providestrong inside-outside connections. The environmentalsustainability eatures are designed to provide a net zeroincrease o greenhouse gas emissions, minimize naturalresource consumption and improve the air, water, lightand micro-climate quality o the site.

Additional sustainability eatures are as ollows:o Co-location o services within the large integrated

Campus development will improve eciency overthe current disjointed land use.

o The number o inter- and intra-Campus car tripsgenerated will be reduced through Apples existingand extensive TDM programs.

o The Central Plant serves as a primary consolidationpoint or heating, cooling and electricity or themain site.

o Approximately 9,240 o the 10,980 parking spacesprovided on-site will be provided in sub-grade levels

or in a parking structure, creating more permeablelandscape and minimizing heat island eect.

o In excess o 6,000 trees will be planted on thesite, including ruit trees, in addition to retainingapproximately 1,000 trees currently on the site.

o The project will increase the permeable area on siterom about 42 acres to approximately 109 acres.

EnergyApple is committed to using 100% renewable energythroughout Apple Campus 2, with an emphasis on on-site generation rom photovoltaics and uel cells. TheMain Building will incorporate a variety o technologiesthat help to achieve Apples net zero energy goal.Initiatives include radiant conditioning systems,LED electric lighting, natural ventilation, and greeninormation and communication technologies. Otherenergy initiatives include:

o 300 electrical vehicle charging stations will beprovided, with built-in capacity to expand.

o Buildings will be designed to allow or passiveheating and cooling and high perormance building

systems.

o The project s overall energy needs will be providedby renewable energy. The majority will begenerated on-site through the use o photovoltaicsand uel cells with directed biogas. These will besupplemented by grid purchased renewable energyi needed during periods o peak demand.

o Approximately 8MW of photovoltaics will beinstalled on the Main Building and parking structure

roofs.

o The sites east and west o North Tantau Avenuewill also be served by 100% renewable energy,maximizing the use o photovoltaics and uel cellson-site.

Acoustics

Operation o mechanical equipment or the completedproject will be subject to the City o Cupertino MunicipalCode, Chapter 10.48 Community Noise Control .Since non-emergency equipment to be installed asa permanent part o the project may be operatedduring the day or night, the design approachesimplemented shall reect the more stringent nighttime

noise requirements o the City o Cupertino MunicipalCode, which is to not to exceed 55 dBA on adjacentresidential properties. To that end, the layout, selection oequipment and noise control approaches, such as barrierwalls or add-on noise reducing devices, will be designedto achieve a noise level during operation o less than55 dBA when measured in outdoor areas o adjacentresidential properties.

MobilityApple will expand its already robust TransportationDemand Management (TDM) program by 20%,increasing the reduction in peak hour trips rom 28%to 34%. Key elements o the TDM program includeexpansion o the employee shuttle program to access allregional public transportation systems and communitieswith concentrations o Apple employees, targetingemployees residing within 15-minutes o the Campus.Management o the sites limited parking supply will beused as an incentive or employees to take advantage oApples alternative commute oerings.



WaterA recycled water main connection to the site is under

consideration. Apple is currently discussing the potentialrecycled water line with the City o Sunnyvale. The mostlikely alignment would extend the line rom the existingCity o Sunnyvale Water Pollution Control Plant to the AppleCampus 2 site along North Wole Road. A fnal route anddesign specifcations, including capacity, have not beendetermined.

The reduction o impermeable suraces on site, androo rainwater capture rom the Main Building roo willpromote natural drainage, reduce storm water runo andimprove water quality in Calabazas Creek. Landscapingwill incorporate both young and mature trees, and

native and drought tolerant plants, which will minimizewater consumption. Water eciency initiatives includethe evaluation o low ow fxtures. Water use would bereduced by about 30 percent below a typical commercialdevelopment within the Silicon Valley area.

Waste

Apple will expand its current waste management program,which achieves a diversion rate o 78%. During constructiono Apple Campus 2, the goal is to divert construction anddemolition waste rom landflls by fnding multiple alternativeuses, such as recycling, reuse on site or on other sites.

Key elements o the waste management program duringoperations are the increase o material reuse, recycling romsolid waste sources and composting.

Green Building Codes and RegulationsApple will exceed sustainability requirements set by theCupertino Green Building Ordinance (GBO), the CaliorniaGreen Building Standards Code (CalGreen, Title-24, Part11), and the Caliornian Energy Eiciency Standards (Title24, Chapter 6). The Cupertino GBO and CalGreen have beenrecently enacted and represent a new level o sustainability thereby setting a signiicant perormance baseline orApple Campus 2 to exceed.
