Note O — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements

 

Three of our assets, 1W7 Carpark, 222W7 and Whitefront Garage, are currently operated by PCA, Inc., dba Park Place Parking. Park Place Parking is a private parking operator that is wholly owned by relatives of our CEO. Our CEO is neither an owner nor beneficiary of Park Place Parking. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we recorded balances of approximately $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, from Park Place Parking which are included in Accounts Receivable, Net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and were subsequently paid within terms of the management agreement.

 

In  May 2022, we entered into a lease agreement with ProKids, an Ohio not-for-profit. An immediate family member of our CEO is a member of the Board of Trustees and President of that organization. ProKids leased 21,000 square feet of vacant unfinished commercial space in a 531,000 square foot building in Cincinnati, Ohio for 120 months. ProKids will invest in the tenant improvements in this space and ultimately use it as their headquarters location. ProKids will have no rent due to us throughout the lease term, other than a rental fee on parking spaces used by the ProKids staff and visitors. As of June 30, 2024, ProKids does not owe us rental income related to the lease agreement.

 

In connection with our recapitalization transaction in August 2021, we owe approximately $0.5 million to certain member entities of Color Up relating to prorated revenues for the month of  August 2021 of the three properties contributed by Color Up. The accrual is reflected within Due to Related Parties on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

We have agreed to pay for certain tax return preparation services of Color Up and certain member entities of Color Up as well as certain legal services in connection with the Registration Rights Agreement. We have incurred approximately $0.1 million related to these services which is reflected in General and Administrative and Other Income (Expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Total fees are estimated to be approximately $0.2 million.

 

License Agreement

 

On August 25, 2021, we entered into a Software License and Development Agreement with an affiliate of Bombe Asset Management, Ltd., an affiliate of our CEO and President (the “Supplier”), pursuant to which we granted to the Supplier a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide right and license to access certain software and services for a fee of $5,000 per month.

 

Tax Matters Agreement

 

On August 25, 2021, the Company, the Operating Partnership and Color Up entered into the Tax Matters Agreement, or the Tax Matters Agreement, pursuant to which the Operating Partnership agreed to indemnify Color Up and certain affiliates and transferees of Color Up (together, the “Protected Partners”), against certain adverse tax consequences in connection with (1) (i) a taxable disposition of certain specified properties and (ii) certain dispositions of the Protected Partners’ interest in the Operating Partnership, in each case, prior to the tenth anniversary of the completion of the Transaction, as defined in the Tax Matters Agreement, (or earlier, if certain conditions are satisfied); and (2) the Operating Partnership’s failure to provide the Protected Partners the opportunity to guarantee a specified amount of debt of the Operating Partnership during the period ending on the tenth anniversary of the completion of the Transaction (or earlier, if certain conditions are satisfied). In addition, and for so long as the Protected Partners own at least 20% of the units in the Operating Partnership received in the Transaction, we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Protected Partners with similar guarantee opportunities.
