Avolta AG (SIX: AVOL), leading global travel experience player, announces it
will grow its presence at John Wayne Airport to offer travelers more food
and beverage options, as well as multiple travel convenience and specialty
retail stores throughout the concourse. Under newly awarded 15-year
contracts to develop nearly 3,500 m2 of concessions space across Terminals
A, B, and C, Avolta's brands Hudson and HMSHost will blend the vibrancy of
Orange County with global brands and trends, bringing a strong sense of
place that resonates with passengers.

The longer-term contracts create a win:win for the airport, Hudson and
HMSHost, enhancing the opportunity to invest and establish a stronger sense
of place for travelers. The new contracts will result in the opening of over
a dozen new dining venues, including outposts of several iconic Orange
County-born brands: Mama's Comfort Food & Cocktails, Wahoo's Fish Tacos,
Sgt. Pepperoni's Pizza Store, Tacos La Piña, Five Vines Wine Bar, Chaupin
Bakery, and Left Coast Brewing, as well as five new Hudson-branded retail
stores, including two travel convenience and three specialty retail
concepts.

A variety of fun, fast, 24/7 vending options dubbed OC To Go* will also be
landing at John Wayne Airport, serving everything from hot, made-to-order
pizza, Krispy Kreme donuts, and Wow Bao bao and dumplings, to fresh salads,
smoothies, and coffee. Furthermore, passengers will soon be able to enjoy a
revamped Ducks Breakaway Bar with a bold new look and menu, along with
several national and globally recognized quick-service brands, including
Dunkin', Panera Bread, Starbucks, Auntie Anne's, Bonchon, The Habit Burger
Grill, and Earl of Sandwich.

"This is a significant and very exciting upgrade to our travel experience
offerings at John Wayne Airport. We have built our reputation on carefully
crafting concessions programs that deliver exceptional experiences and a
sense of place," said Steve Johnson, President and CEO, North America,
Avolta. "Orange County is a unique region, deserving of F&B and retail
offerings that reflect its environment, culture, and diversity. Combined
with outlets featuring esteemed, recognizable brands, our F&B and retail
program will bring variety and excitement to the terminal. We are proud of
our continued partnership with John Wayne Airport and the County of Orange,
and are thrilled by their support of our vision to create the future of
retail and dining."

"John Wayne Airport is thrilled to partner with HMSHost in bringing exciting
new dining options to the terminal, reflecting the rich culinary diversity
of Orange County (, and) excited to welcome the Hudson brand's expanded
presence, offering travelers an elevated retail experience that perfectly
blends the local sense of Orange County with travel trends. Through this
innovative partnership, these improvements underscore our commitment to
providing guests with a unique and memorable experience showcasing local
favorites and beloved national brands, as well as providing our guests with
diverse options that reflect the unique culture and personality of the
