The Company historically leased its office headquarters building from a company 33% beneficially owned by Blake L. Sartini, 5% owned by a trust for the benefit of Mr. Sartini’s immediate family members (including Blake L. Sartini II) for which Mr. Sartini serves as trustee, and 3% beneficially owned by Stephen A. Arcana. On May 24, 2021 the building was sold to an independent third party, and therefore this lease is no longer with a related party. The rent expense for the office headquarters building prior to the sale of the building to an independent third party was $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Additionally, a portion of the office headquarters building was sublet to Sartini Enterprises, Inc., a company controlled by Mr. Sartini. Rental income for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 for the sublet portion of the office headquarters building was insignificant. No amount was owed to the Company under such sublease as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. In addition, Golden and Sartini Enterprises, Inc. participate in certain cost-sharing arrangements. The amount due and payable by the Company under such arrangements was insignificant as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Mr. Sartini serves as the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and is co-trustee of The Blake L. Sartini and Delise F. Sartini Family Trust, which is a significant shareholder of the Company. Mr. Arcana serves as the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company.
In November 2018, the Company entered into a lease agreement for additional office space in a building owned by a company 33% beneficially owned by Mr. Sartini, 5% owned by a trust for the benefit of Mr. Sartini’s immediate family members (including Blake L. Sartini II) for which Mr. Sartini serves as trustee, and 3% beneficially owned by Mr. Arcana. The lease commenced in August 2020 and expires on December 31, 2030. The rent expense for the space was $0.1 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and $0.2 million for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Additionally, the lease agreement includes a right of first refusal for additional space on the second floor of the building.
From time to time, the Company’s executive officers and employees use a private aircraft leased to Sartini Enterprises, Inc. for Company business purposes pursuant to aircraft time-sharing, co-user and cost-sharing agreements between the Company and Sartini Enterprises, Inc., all of which have been approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The aircraft time-sharing, co-user and cost-sharing agreements specify the maximum expense reimbursement that Sartini Enterprises, Inc. can charge the Company under the applicable regulations of the Federal Aviation Administration for the use of the aircraft and the flight crew. Such costs include fuel, landing fees, hangar and tie-down costs away from the aircraft’s operating base, flight planning and weather contract services, crew costs and other related expenses. The Company’s compliance department regularly reviews these reimbursements. The Company incurred $0.1 million under the aircraft time-sharing, co-user and cost-sharing agreements with Sartini Enterprises, Inc. for each of the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and $0.5 million under such agreements for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company owed $0.1 million and $0.2 million under such agreements as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
On May 18, 2022, the Company repurchased 210,000 shares of its common stock from Anthony A. Marnell III, an independent non-employee member of the Company’s Board of Directors, pursuant to its share repurchase program at a price of $42.61 per share, resulting in a charge to accumulated deficit of $8.9 million. This transaction was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors prior to being executed.
