COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES. |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Litigation The Company is party to a number of pending legal proceedings related to matters that occurred in the normal course of business. Management does not expect that the outcome of any such proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Options to Purchase or Lease Land Fountain Square of Waukegan Land Purchase Under Contract. In connection with the development of its American Place project in Waukegan, Illinois, the Company entered into an agreement in January 2022 to purchase approximately 10 acres of land adjoining the approximately 30-acre casino site to be leased from the City, providing space for additional parking and access to the casino site from a major road. Subsequent to December 31, 2021, a deposit for $375,000 was applied towards the land purchase of $7.5 million. Option Agreement for Public Trust Tidelands Lease in Mississippi. The Company has been evaluating the potential construction of an additional hotel tower and related amenities at Silver Slipper, a portion of which would extend out over the adjoining Gulf of Mexico. In contemplation for such potential future expansion, the Company paid $5,000 for an option agreement – entered into by the Company on June 8, 2021 and approved by the Governor of Mississippi on July 13, 2021 – for a 30-year lease of approximately a half-acre of tidelands, with a term extension for another 30 years, if exercised. This initial six-month option can be renewed for three additional six-month periods, with the payment of $5,000 for each extension. In November 2021, the Company paid an additional $5,000 to exercise its first six-month option extension through the end of May 2022. Upon commencement of the lease, and for the first 18 months or until the beginning of the next six-month period after the opening of commercial operations on the leased premises, whichever occurs sooner, rent would be $10,000 for each six-month period (“Construction Rent”). Construction Rent would terminate no later than 18 months after the commencement of the lease. Thereafter, annual rent would be $105,300, with adjustments, based on the consumer price index on each anniversary. Before construction can commence, additional entitlements are necessary, including certain environmental approvals. There can be no certainty that the tidelands lease option will be exercised or that the contemplated Silver Slipper expansion will be built. Defined Contribution Plan The Company sponsors a defined contribution plan for all eligible employees providing for voluntary contributions by eligible employees and matching contributions made by the Company. In March 2020, upon the mandatory shutdown of all of the Company’s properties, the Company suspended matching contributions. In October 2021, the Company reinstated its employer matching of contributions at 50% up to 4% of eligible compensation. Matching contributions made by the Company were $47,000 for 2021, $66,000 for 2020, and $336,000 for 2019, excluding nominal administrative expenses. Liquidity, Concentrations and Economic Risks and Uncertainties The Company carries cash on deposit with financial institutions that may be in excess of federally-insured limits. The extent of any loss that might be incurred as a result of uninsured deposits in the event of a future failure of a bank or other financial institution, if any, is not subject to estimation at this time. ​
