Description related land leases     The Land Lease includes an exclusive option to purchase the leased land ("Purchase Option"), as well as an option to purchase a four acre portion of the leased land, which may be exercised at any time in conjunction with a hotel development during the term of the Land Lease for $2.0 million. On February 26, 2013, Silver Slipper Casino entered into a third amendment to the Land Lease which amended the term and Purchase Option provisions. The term of the Land Lease is to April 30, 2058, with a Purchase Option through October 1, 2027, but which may only be exercised after February 26, 2019. If there is no change in ownership, the purchase price will be $15.5 million ($13.5 million if the four acre parcel has been previously purchased) plus a retained interest in Silver Slipper Casino operations of 3% of net income. In the event that we sell or transfer substantially all of the assets of our ownership in Silver Slipper Casino, then the purchase price will increase to $17.0 million.
