The Company’s cessation of its pineapple operations at the end of 2009 and the corresponding reduction in the active participant count for the Pension Plan for Bargaining Unit and Hourly Employees (Bargaining Plan) triggered the requirement that the Company provide security to the Pension Benefits Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) of approximately $5.2 million to support the unfunded liabilities of the Bargaining Plan. In April 2011, the Company executed a settlement agreement with the PBGC and pledged security of approximately 1,400 acres in West Maui that will be released in five years if the Company does not otherwise default on the agreement. The Company was advised in October 2011 that the cessation of its golf operations and the corresponding reduction in the active participant count for the Bargaining Plan and the Pension Plan for Non-Bargaining Unit Employees triggered the requirement that the Company provide additional security to the PBGC of approximately $18.7 million to support the unfunded liabilities of the two pension plans or to make contributions to the plans in excess of the minimum required amounts. In November 2012, the Company executed a settlement agreement with the PBGC and pledged security of approximately 7,000 acres in West Maui that will be released in five years if the Company does not otherwise default on the agreement. No formal appraisal or determination of the fair value of the 7,000 acres was performed by the Company in connection with the settlement agreement with the PBGC. In June 2013, the State of Hawaii enacted a bill directing the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR), in consultation with the Hawaiian Islands Land Trust, to engage in the purchase of an approximately 270-acre parcel of former agricultural land in West Maui, known as Lipoa Point, from the Company. The bill further requires the DLNR to ensure to the maximum extent practicable that the Company uses the proceeds of the sale to benefit the Company’s defined benefit pension plans. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had unfunded pension fund liabilities of $24.2 million. The unfunded obligations are secured by approximately 8,400 acres in West Maui with a carrying value of $1.8 million, which includes Lipoa Point. The passage of the bill does not obligate the DLNR to purchase the property or obligate the Company to sell the property. Any such sale would be subject to negotiation between the parties, including the purchase price. There is no certainty that any such sale will take place, and even if it does, the amount by which the Company’s unfunded pension fund liabilities would be reduced is uncertain. Any such reduction may not be sufficient to release the security interest on any of the Company’s other West Maui real estate holdings securing the Company’s unfunded pension fund liabilities. The minimum required contributions to the Company’s defined benefit pension plans in 2013 are expected to be $2.1 million, of which $1.6 million has been funded through September 30, 2013. Management believes that it will be able to fund the remaining contribution.
