Options to Purchase or Lease Land

La Posada del Llano Racetrack Proposal in New Mexico. During July 2018, the Company paid $125,000 for options to purchase approximately 520 acres of adjoining land in Clovis, New Mexico as part of its racetrack casino proposal to the New Mexico Racing Commission. The proposal was in response to the New Mexico Racing Commission’s request for proposals related to the potential issuance of the state’s sixth racing license. The options include:

•

A $75,000 option to purchase 200 acres of land, which ends on the earlier of either July 2019 or 60 days following granting of the sixth license to conduct horseracing by the New Mexico Racing Commission and New Mexico Gaming Control Board (“License Award”) and all related approvals, permits, and other licenses. Prior to the end of the initial option period, the Company may extend the purchase option by one year for another $75,000 under the same terms. Prior to the end of the initial option period, or as extended, the Company may exercise the purchase option for $1.4 million, which can be reduced by the option payment.

•

A $50,000 option to purchase 320 acres of land, which ends on the earlier of either July 2019 or 60 days following granting of the License Award and all related approvals, permits, and other licenses. Prior to the end of the initial option period, the Company may extend the purchase option by one year for another $50,000 under the same terms. Prior to the end of the initial option period, or as extended, the Company may exercise the purchase option for $1.6 million, which can be reduced by the option payment.
