These estimated payments represent undiscounted cash flows. On November 21, 2014, the Company completed the sale of approximately 36,000 acres of land used for sugarcane production and land leasing in Hendry County, Florida to Global Ag Properties, LLC (“Global”) for approximately $97,900,000 in cash. It had previously leased approximately 30,600 of these acres to United States Sugar Corporation (the “USSC Lease”). The USSC Lease was assigned to Global in conjunction with the land sale. The sales price is subject to post-closing adjustments over a ten year period. The Company realized a gain of approximately $42,753,000 on the sale. Initially, $29,140,000 of the gain was deferred due to the Company’s continuing involvement in the property pursuant to a post-closing agreement and the potential price adjustments. The deferral represents the Company’s estimate of the maximum exposure to loss as a result of the continuing involvement (see below). A net gain of approximately $13,613,000 was recognized at the time of the sale. The Company estimated its maximum exposure to loss over the ten year period to total approximately $42,172,000 on an aggregate undiscounted basis. This estimated maximum exposure to loss was discounted at five percent to determine the initial deferred gain. In May 2018, 2017 and 2016 the Company made payments of $1,889,000 and $1,580,000 and $1,702,000, respectively, to Global pursuant to the sales contract. The amount of USSC’s lease is tied to the market price of sugar, and the Company's payment is required annually in advance, to supplement the lease paid by USSC in the event that the sugar prices are below certain thresholds. The Company has recognized approximately $1,361,000, $1,413,000 and $1,406,000 in interest expense and approximately $967,000, $538,000 and $618,000 of the deferred gain for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
