Applegreen Acquisition And Lease Termination

Note 2. APPLEGREEN ACQUISITION AND LEASE TERMINATION

On January 26, 2024, we entered into an agreement (the “Applegreen Purchase Agreement”) to acquire certain assets from Applegreen Midwest, LLC and Applegreen Florida, LLC (collectively, the “Sellers”) (the “Applegreen Acquisition”). The assets were acquired via the termination of the Partnership’s existing lease agreements with the Sellers at 59 locations, for total consideration of $16.9 million. The transaction closed on a rolling basis by site beginning during the first quarter of 2024 and ending in April 2024. The Partnership also acquired for cash the inventory at the locations. The terms of the Partnership’s leases with Applegreen Midwest, LLC and Applegreen Florida, LLC could have been extended to 2049 and 2048, respectively, including all renewal options. The Applegreen Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties as well as indemnification obligations by the Sellers and the Partnership, respectively, to each other.

Of the 59 locations, 31 locations converted during the first quarter of 2024 and the remaining locations converted in April 2024. This transaction resulted in the transition of these lessee dealer sites to company operated sites.

During the first half of 2024, we paid $25.5 million of cash and recorded a non-cash write-off of deferred rent income of $1.5 million. We recorded these transactions as follows (in thousands):
