Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Truett-Hurst, Inc. (the “Company”), through its operating subsidiary, H.D.D. LLC (“HDD”), entered into a settlement agreement (the “Agreement”) among Hambrecht Wine Company L.P. (the “Owner”), a California limited partnership and the owner of the property at 4035 Westside Road, Healdsburg, California (the “Property”), and Mr. Kevin Singer, in his capacity as the court-appointed receiver for the Property. The Property serves as the location for one of the Company’s tasting rooms, production and storage capacity for a portion of its annual grape harvest, and administrative offices.

 

On July 28, 2016, the Property was sold to a third party buyer. Under the Agreement, HDD, in exchange for payment of $955 thousand to HDD, quitclaimed certain rights and amended its lease such that it will vacate the tasting room portion of the property no later than December 31, 2016, and the balance of the space no later than May 31, 2017. HDD also agreed to dismiss its pending claims against the Owner. The parties have agreed to keep the remaining terms of the Agreement confidential.

 

The Agreement does not impact the Company's ownership or operation of its main winery located in the Dry Creek Valley at 5610 Dry Creek Road.
