The Greenhouse Loan is in default and the subject of litigation (see Note 6 – LONG-TERM DEBT). Power REIT continues to try to work with the lender to establish a path forward. However, the Greenhouse Loan is non-recourse to Power REIT which means that in the event it cannot resolve issues with the lender and they foreclose on the properties, Power REIT should be able to continue as a going concern albeit with a smaller portfolio of assets. In addition, it is possible that the Greenhouse Loan will lead to distressed sales including possibly through foreclosures, which would have a negative impact on our prospects. A forbearance agreement with the lender for the Greenhouse Loan was effective on May 10, 2024, which provides additional time to retire the loan.

As of the filing date, The Trust’s current liabilities far exceed current assets. If the Trust’s plan to focus on selling properties, entering into new leases, improving cash collections from existing tenants and raising capital in the form of debt or equity is effectively implemented, the Trust’s plan could potentially provide enough liquidity. However, the Trust cannot predict, with certainty, the outcome of its actions to generate liquidity. Power REIT’s cash outlays at the parent company level consist principally of professional fees, consultant fees, NYSE American listing fees, legal, insurance, shareholder service company fees, auditing costs, and general and administrative expenses. The Trust’s cash outlays related to our various property-owning subsidiaries consist principally of principal and interest expense on debts property maintenance, property taxes, insurance, legal as well as other property related expenses that are not covered by tenants. To the extent the Trust needs to raise additional capital to meet its obligations, there can be no assurance that financing on favorable terms will be available when needed.
