Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center
Previously the Company entered into an agreement to purchase a 52.6-acre
parcel of undeveloped land in Freetown, Massachusetts. The property is located
approximately 47 miles southeast of Boston. The Company plans to develop the
property as the Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center "MMCC". Plans for the MMCC
may include the construction of sustainable greenhouse cultivation, processing,
and infused product facilities that will be leased or sold to Registered
Marijuana Dispensaries under the Massachusetts Medical Marijuana Program.
The Company paid the seller $100,000 upon the signing of the agreement
which amount will be applied toward the purchase price of $4,000,000 at the
closing. Pursuant to the original agreement the closing was to take place on or
before June 1, 2015. On May 6, 2015, to address site considerations before
finalizing the planned development, the agreement was amended to extend the
closing date to September 1, 2015. On August 27, 2015, after addressing the site
considerations, the agreement was amended to extend the closing date to October
30, 2015 to provide additional time for permitting. In connection with this
amendment, the Company paid the seller an additional $100,000. On October 23,
2015, the Company made an additional payment of $100,000 to extend the closing
date to December 29, 2015. These payments of $300,000 will be applied to the
purchase price.
On December 22, 2015 the Company and the seller amended the agreement to
extend the closing date to February 29, 2016. As consideration for the extension
of the closing Date, the Company agreed to increase the purchase price for the
property to $4,100,000 and paid the seller $100,000, which will be applied to
the purchase price if the closing occurs.
On February 29, 2016 the Company and the seller amended the agreement to
extend the closing date. As consideration for the extension of the closing date,
the Company agreed to increase the purchase price for the property to $4,150,000
and paid the seller $50,000, which will be applied to the purchase price if the
closing occurs.
On March 31, 2016 the Company and the seller amended the agreement to
extend the closing date to May 16, 2016. As consideration for the extension of
the closing date, the Company paid the seller $75,000, which will be applied to
the purchase price if the closing occurs.
To date, the Company has paid $525,000 that will be applied to the purchase
of the land purchase when the Company purchases the land.
Agreements with Coastal Compassion regarding MMCC
On April 7, 2016 we signed agreements with Coastal Compassion Inc. "CCI".
CCI is one of a limited number of non-profit organizations that has received a
provisional or final registration to cultivate, process and sell medical
cannabis by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.
CCI has agreed to become the initial tenant in our planned Massachusetts
Medical Cannabis Center. The MMCC is approved for nearly 1,000,000 square feet

<PAGE>
of medical cannabis cultivation and processing in Freetown, Massachusetts. Mr.
Tim Keogh, AmeriCann's Chief Executive Officer, is a Board Member of CCI.
Pursuant to the Agreements, AmeriCann agreed to provide CCI with financing
of up to $2.5 million for a five-year term at 18% interest per year for
construction and working capital required for CCI's approved dispensary and
cultivation center in Fairhaven, MA. For a three year period beginning April 1,
2016, AmeriCann has agreed to consult with CCI in the design, construction and
operation of the Fairhaven facility. CCI will pay AmeriCann $10,000 each month
for these consulting services. Although the Massachusetts Department of Public
Health has approved our agreement with CCI relating to the development and lease
terms of the MMCC, the actual lease agreement with CCI has not been finalized or
approved by the Department of Public Health. Additionally, AmeriCann will need
to secure significant capital to acquire the property, to develop the first
phase of the MMCC project and to provide capital to CCI to fund its loan
agreement.
The state-of-the-art sustainable greenhouse MMCC project will consist of
multiple planned phases for tenants in the Massachusetts medical marijuana
market. CCI finalized agreements to occupy the first phase of the project that
consists of an initial 130,000 sq. ft. of cultivation and processing
infrastructure. AmeriCann can expand the first phase to approximately 600,000
sq. ft., for Coastal Compassion based on patient demand.
The MMCC facility has been designed utilizing AmeriCann's proprietary
system known as "Cannopy." AmeriCann has drawn on its team's extensive
experience in traditional horticulture, lean manufacturing, medical research,
facility construction, regulatory compliance, security, cannabis cultivation and
genetics, extraction techniques, and infused product development.
As of April 13, 2016, AmeriCann had not acquired the property on which MMCC
will be built. The purchase price for the 52.6 parcel of land on which the MMCC
will be built is $4,150,000 of which $525,000 has been paid. The closing date
for the purchase is May 16, 2016.
Note Payable
On August 14, 2015 we signed an agreement to sell a five-acre parcel of
land in Denver, Colorado to an unrelated third party for $2,500,000. The closing
of the transaction was to take place on or before September 14, 2015. The buyer,
with our consent, extended the closing date to November 1, 2015 and made a loan
to us of $900,000, which bears interest at 12% per year and was due and payable
on March 15, 2016. The buyer failed to close the purchase on November 1, 2015
and the agreement with the buyer was terminated. On April 6, 2016 the loan was
modified as follows:
o The principal balance of the loan was increased to $990,000;
o The interest rate was increased to 18% per year; and
o The maturity date of the loan was extended to March 15, 2017.

We may repay the loan at any time without penalty. The loan is secured by a
first lien on the five-acre parcel of land in Denver. As of April 13, 2016 all
accrued interest on the loan had been paid.
