Let’s Get Ready
I am excited for the 2010-11 season, and I hope you are too. We begin every year
tied with the other 29 teams in the league in every standing imaginable. Everyone
begins at zero, and that is a wonderful thing. It means that we cannot rest on our
laurels of past regular-season success, and it also means that we cannot dwell on
postseason disappointment.
What it does mean is that we have to work hard and prove ourselves once again
as we try to win a championship. I am ready for a memorable season, and
everyone in the Capitals organization is happy to have you on-board with us. I
have said it many times, but our season-ticket holders are our most valuable
asset and are at the core of our success. We sincerely appreciate your continued
support and commitment.
Ted Leonsis
Chairman and
Majority Owner
Once again, every game at Verizon Center will be sold out, and we will look to you
– our season-ticket holders – to provide a home-ice environment that is second
to none in the NHL. When rocking, Verizon Center transforms into an intimidating
and difficult building for our opposition. We have had high-caliber exciting teams
recently, but I also know that our fans helped propel us to a 59-11-12 home
record the past two seasons.
We don’t underestimate your commitment, and you shouldn’t underestimate
your impact. Together, we have turned the Washington, D.C., area into a hockey
destination. Fans and media from all over the world come to our area to watch
the Capitals and take in the Verizon Center experience. That is a testament to our
fabulous coach, a tremendous nucleus of players, an organizational plan designed
for long-term success and most importantly an incredibly engaged fan base.
As many of you know, in June my partners and I launched Monumental Sports &
Entertainment, which includes the ownership and operation of the Washington
Wizards and Verizon Center. One of the primary benefits on this acquisition will
be our ability to control and enhance the overall fan experience at the arena. We
have a tremendous venue, but our goal is to make it even better – the most fanfriendly, welcoming arena in professional sports.
If you have questions, concerns or comments throughout the season, we
encourage you to contact your Guest Services representative. Your feedback is
important to all of us.
See you at the rink.
Ted

Capitals Charitable Partnerships
Rock the Red
on the Road
The Washington Capitals are
proud to offer Caps fans official
team license plates in the state of
Maryland and the Commonwealth
of Virginia.
In Maryland, fans can order the
Caps license plate for a one-time
fee of $50. A portion of the fee
is tax-deductible and benefits
Washington Capitals Charities. Todate, more than $30,000 has been
raised for the team’s charity.
In Virginia, thanks to hundreds of
fans that stepped up to submit
prepaid applications, a Caps
license plate will be available in
2011 at Department of Motor
Vehicles’ locations. The Caps
Virginia license plate costs $25
annually ($35 for a personalized
plate). At the milestone of 1,000
Caps Virginia license plates
purchased, a portion of the
proceeds from the annual fee
will benefit Washington Capitals
Charities.
Most Valuable Kids
The Washington Capitals team up with Most
Valuable Kids Inc. to provide a unique
opportunity for Caps planholders to donate
unused game tickets to underserved children,
recuperating soldiers and active military
and their families in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area.
Tickets that would otherwise go unused are redistributed by
Most Valuable Kids to either injured soldiers or active military
and their families; or to boys and girls, 18 and younger,
through various local nonprofit organizations. Most Valuable
Kids’ mission is to provide an unparalleled reward system for
local underprivileged children and children’s organizations that
show exemplary behavior, spirit and community service. In
offering children the opportunity to come face to face with
athletic and entertainment role models, Most Valuable Kids’
program fosters the development of self-esteem and a deeper
understanding of the benefits of hard work and perseverance
during adolescent and teenage years. For more information on

Renew Your Account or Pay an Invoice Online
Washington Capitals Account Manager will allow you to make all of your
ticket invoice payments online. At that time you can simply log-in to your
personal account and select the “Pay Invoice” option. Here you will be able to
view your past invoices, make payments, renew your tickets for the upcoming
season or even purchase your playoff tickets. Take advantage of this new
option and avoid the hassles of making payments in person, over the phone
or by mail.
Forward Your Tickets
Now you can send your tickets to virtually anyone up to two hours before
the game via ticket forwarding. This service allows you to e-mail tickets to
friends, family, clients or other guests when you can’t attend a game. Simply
log-in to your personal account, select the ticket or group of tickets you wish
to send, enter the recipient’s information and select “Forward.” It’s easy, and
you don’t even have to have the tickets in hand. Avoid the hassles and costs
of overnight or in-person delivery and start enjoying the benefits of this new
service.
How It Works
Each of your season tickets carries a unique barcode. During the forwarding
process, the barcode on your original season ticket is cancelled and a new
one is issued electronically. The recipient is e-mailed a new TicketFast ticket
with a unique barcode that can be printed out on an 8.5 x 11” page with any
standard computer printer.

FAQ
What happens if my tickets do
not sell?
You will be notified via email if
your tickets do not sell before
your indicated expiration date.
Your listing will be automatically
removed and your original tickets
will still be valid for entry. If you
cannot attend the game, you
also have the option of emailing
your tickets to a friend via Ticket
Forwarding. Additional forwarding
fees may also include an
authentication and TicketFast®
delivery fee.
Are there additional fees?
Sellers pay 10% of the posting
price only when their posted
tickets have sold. Buyers pay
additional fees during the
purchase process that will be
reflected in the listing price of the
ticket. Additional fees may also
include an authentication and
TicketFast® delivery fee.
Can I purchase additional game
tickets as a season-ticket
holder?
Yes, season- ticket holders can
use TicketExchange to purchase
additional Capitals tickets directly
from other season-ticket holders.
Buying through TicketExchange is
safe, secure, easy and with email
delivery, you’ll receive your extra
tickets right away.
Ticket Forwarding is an inexpensive alternative to other
overnight delivery and courier services and provides a secure
alternative method to ensure your tickets get used.
Post Your Tickets For Resale
TicketExchange offers fans a legitimate and secure forum
for buying and selling tickets online. The total integration
of TicketExchange with Ticketmaster systems provides a
seamless solution for overall fan satisfaction. Since only
Ticketmaster tickets may be posted on TicketExchange, buyers
are guaranteed authenticity and exact seat locations.
When a ticket is sold, the original barcode is cancelled and a
new one is issued, eliminating the possibility of counterfeiting.
TicketFast® enables immediate email delivery of purchased
tickets, saving customers the time and trouble of coordinating
transactions. TicketExchange also uses built-in pricing
regulations based on the locations of the seller and the event
in order to ensure compliance with state laws that set the
maximum allowable resale price per ticket.
Sell your tickets online via the Capitals Online Account
Manager. Post your tickets for sale in a safe and legitimate
way. The program allows fans to have more flexibility with their
ticket plans, giving them control over which tickets they use
and which they choose to sell in the online forum.
Once your posted tickets are purchased, the amount of the
sale price is credited, less the 10% seller fee. The barcodes on
your sold tickets are cancelled and new barcodes are issued.
The new tickets are then electronically delivered to the buyer
via TicketFast® for at-home printing using any standard
printer without the hassle and delay of mail delivery. Prior to
posting your tickets, you must choose to either:
1. Apply resale credit towards your Capitals account for your
2011-12 season renewal.
2. Request to have money deposited to a valid credit card or
checking account by Ticketmaster when your seats are
sold. Please allow 15-20 business days after the purchase
to process and deposit your payment.
*Please note that any fraudulent ticket activity related to the
resale or ticket forwarding of your season tickets will result
in the cancellation of your 2010-11 season and 2011 playoff
tickets.
