(“JHI”), entered into a Commercial Contract (the “Real Estate Agreement”), which agreement provided for JHI to purchase the real estate where the Foster Clubs are located.

The purchase price of the real estate was $10.1 million (discounted to $9.6 million as explained below) and was paid with $350,000 in cash, $9.1 million in mortgage notes, including the assumption of approximately $4.2 million in notes, and an agreement to make a one-time payment of $650,000 in twelve years that bears no interest.

The Company has recorded a debt discount of $431,252 related to the one-time payment of $650,000.
