On
October 17, 2016,
the Company closed the previously announced acquisition of a
52.6
-acre parcel of undeveloped land in Freetown, Massachusetts. The deposits of
$925,000
previously paid by the Company to the seller, Boston Beer Company (“BBC”), were credited against the total purchase price of
$4,475,000.
The remaining balance of
$3,550,000
was paid to BBC by Massachusetts Medical Properties, LLC (“MMP”). The property is located approximately
47
miles southeast of Boston. The Company plans to develop the property as the Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center (the “MMCC”). Plans for the MMCC 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.
 
As part of a simultaneous transaction, the Company assigned the property rights to MMP for a nominal fee and entered a lease agreement pursuant to which MMP agreed to lease the property to the Company for an initial term of
fifty
(
50
) years. The Company has the option to extend the term of the lease for
four
(
4
) additional
ten
(
10
) year periods. The lease is a triple net lease, with the Company paying all real estate taxes, repairs, maintenance and insurance.
 
The lease payments will be the greater of (a)
$30,000
per month; (b)
$0.38
per square foot per month of any structure built on the property; or (c)
1.5%
of all gross monthly sales of products sold by the Company, any assignee of the Company, or any subtenant of the Company. The lease payments will be adjusted up (but
not
down) every
five
(
5
) years by any increase in the Consumer Price Index.
 
Under the terms of the lease, the Company had
six
months to obtain
$2.6
million in capital funding for the construction of the
first
phase building. In the event that the Company is unable to raise these funds within the
six
month period, the Company had an additional
six
months to do so; provided, that the Company has paid accrued lease payments and closing costs. On
October 17, 2017,
the lease agreement was amended to provide that the Company will have until
16
months from
October 17, 2016
to raise
$2.6
million in capital funding. In addition to extending the funding deadline, this amendment granted MMP a warrant to purchase up to
100,000
shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of
$1.50
per share. The warrant can be exercised at any time on or before
October 17, 2022.
The Company recognized an expense of
$0
and
$171,307
during the
three
and
nine
months ended
June 30, 2018,
respectively, representing the entire grant date fair value of the warrant.
 
On
February 16, 2018,
the lease agreement was amended to provide that the Company will have until
18
months from
October 17, 2016
to raise
$2.6
million in capital funding. In addition to extending the funding deadline, this amendment granted MMP a warrant to purchase up to
50,000
shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of
$1.50
per share. The warrant can be exercised at any time on or before 
October 17, 2022.
The Company recognized an expense of
$135,354
during the
nine
months ended
June 30, 2018,
representing the entire grant date fair value of the warrant.
 
On
April 17, 2018,
the lease agreement was amended to provide that the Company will have until
20
months from
October 17, 2016
to raise
$2.6
million in capital funding.  In addition to extending the funding deadline, this amendment granted MMP a warrant to purchase up to
50,000
shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of
$1.50
per share.  The warrant can be exercised at any time on or before
October 17, 2022. 
The Company recognized an expense of
$126,126
during the
nine
months ended
June 30, 2018,
representing the entire grant fair value of the warrant.
 
As of
June 30, 2018,
the Company has satisfied the funding obligations as per the agreement and amendments.
 
The Company received a credit for the
$925,000
paid towards the purchase price of the land in the form of discounted lease payments. For the initial
fifty
(
50
) year term of the lease, the lease payments will be reduced by
$1,542
each month
 
In connection with the sale of the property to MMP and the lease, the Company and MMP entered into a Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company issued to MMP
100,000
shares of its common stock at par value of
$0.0001
(“Common Stock”), and a warrant to purchase up to
3,640,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of
$1.00
per share. The warrant can be exercised at any time on or after
October 17, 2018
and on or before
October 17, 2020.
The warrant does
not
contain a cashless exercise provision. The fair value of the warrant was established using the Black Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:
 
 
Risk-free interest rate –
1.12
percent
 
Expected term –
4.0
years
 
Volatility –
100
percent
  
The Company allocated
$1,899,966
to the warrant which is reflected in additional paid-in-capital and was allocated to prepaid land lease. The fair value of the common stock on the date of the agreement was
$73,000,
which is also reflected in additional paid-in-capital and was allocated to prepaid land lease. The prepaid land lease is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
 
The lease expense was
$99,865
and
$99,865
for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
and
2017,
respectively, and
$299,595
and
$406,901
for the
nine
months ended
June 30, 2018
and
2017,
respectively. At

the future rental payments required under this lease are 
$85,374
for the remainder of fiscal
2018,
