Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will lease the land to the Buyer for $76,000 for the remainder of the 2012 crop year and then the Buyer will purchase the land for approximately $1,524,000, of which approximately $50,000 was paid on signing (and is nonrefundable after March 15, 2012) and the balance would be due on closing, which is expected to occur on or before April 15, 2012.
