USE OF MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes market and industry data that we have obtained from third-party sources, including industry publications, as well as industry data prepared by our management on the basis of its knowledge of and experience in the industries in which we operate (including our management’s estimates and assumptions relating to such industries based on that knowledge). Management has developed its knowledge of such industries through its experience and participation in these industries. While our management believes the third-party sources referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are reliable, neither we nor our management have independently verified any of the data from such sources referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or ascertained the underlying economic assumptions relied upon by such sources. Furthermore, internally prepared and third-party market prospective information, in particular, are estimates only and there will usually be differences between the prospective and actual results, because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected, and those differences may be material. Also, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to any publications, reports, surveys or articles prepared by third parties should not be construed as depicting the complete findings of the entire publication, report, survey or article. The information in any such publication, report, survey or article is not incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Solely for convenience, we refer to trademarks in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q without the ® or the ™ or symbols, but such references are not intended to indicate that we will not assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, our rights to our own trademarks. Other service marks, trademarks and trade names referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, if any, are the property of their respective owners, although for presentational convenience we may not use the ® or the ™ symbols to identify such trademarks.

 

OTHER PERTINENT INFORMATION

 

Unless the context otherwise indicates, when used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “MJ Holdings” “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and similar terms refer to MJ Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and all of our subsidiaries and affiliates.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2021 contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements relate to future events including, without limitation, the terms, timing and closing of our proposed acquisitions or our future financial performance. We have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by using terminology such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predict,” “should” or “will” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions; uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels or activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Our expectations are as of the date this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed, and we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed to confirm these statements to actual results, unless required by law.

 

You should not place undue reliance on forward looking statements. The cautionary statements set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q identify important factors which you should consider in evaluating our forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things:

 

  Our ability to effectively execute our business plan;
     
  Our ability to manage our expansion, growth and operating expenses;
     
  Our ability to protect our brands and reputation;
     
  Our ability to repay our debts;
     
  Our ability to rely on third-party suppliers outside of the United States;
     
  Our ability to evaluate and measure our business, prospects and performance metrics;
     
  Our ability to compete and succeed in a highly competitive and evolving industry;
     
  Our ability to respond and adapt to changes in technology and customer behavior;
     
  Risks in connection with completed or potential acquisitions, dispositions and other strategic growth opportunities and initiatives;
     
  Risks related to the anticipated timing of the closing of any potential acquisitions;
     
  Risks related to the integration with regards to potential or completed acquisitions; and
     
  Various risks related to health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks, such as the coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic, which may have material adverse effects on our business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other industry data. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. We have not independently verified the statistical and other industry data generated by independent parties and contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and, accordingly, we cannot guarantee their accuracy or completeness, though we do generally believe the data to be reliable. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the industries in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including, but not limited to, the possibility that we may fail to preserve our expertise in consumer product development; that existing and potential distribution partners may opt to work with, or favor the products of, competitors if our competitors offer more favorable products or pricing terms; that we may be unable to maintain or grow sources of revenue; that we may be unable maintain profitability; that we may be unable to attract and retain key personnel; or that we may not be able to effectively manage, or to increase, our relationships with customers; that we may have unexpected increases in costs and expenses. These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the estimates made by the independent parties and by us.

MJ HOLDINGS, INC. and SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 — Nature of the Business

 

MJ Holdings, Inc. (OTCPK: MJNE) is a highly-diversified cannabis holding company providing cultivation management, asset and infrastructure development – currently concentrated in the Las Vegas market. It is the Company’s intention to grow its business and provide a 360-degree spectrum of infrastructure, including, cannabis cultivation, production of cannabis related products, management services, dispensaries and consulting services. The Company intends to grow its business through joint ventures with existing companies possessing complementary subject matter expertise, acquisition of existing companies and through the development of new opportunities. The Company intends to “prove the concept” profitably in the rapidly expanding Las Vegas market and then use that anticipated success as a template for replicating the concept in other developing states through a combination of strategic partnerships, acquisitions and opening new operations.

 

The Company was incorporated on November 17, 2006, as Securitas EDGAR Filings, Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada. Prior to the formation of Securitas EDGAR Filings Inc., the business was operated as Xpedient EDGAR Filings, LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company, formed on October 31, 2005. On November 21, 2005, Xpedient EDGAR Filings LLC amended its Articles of Organization to change its name to Securitas EDGAR Filings, LLC. On January 21, 2009, Securitas EDGAR Filings LLC merged into Securitas EDGAR Filings, Inc., a Nevada corporation. On February 14, 2014, the Company amended and restated its Articles of Incorporation and changed its name to MJ Holdings, Inc.

 

On November 22, 2016, in connection with a plan to divest the Company of its real estate business, the Company submitted to its stockholders an offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) its common stock for shares in MJ Real Estate Partners, LLC, (“MJRE”) a newly formed LLC formed for the sole purpose of effecting the Exchange Offer. On January 10, 2017, the Company accepted for exchange 1,800,000 shares of its Common Stock in exchange for 1,800,000 shares of MJRE’s common units, representing membership interests in MJRE. Effective February 1, 2017, the Company transferred its ownership interests in the real estate properties and its subsidiaries, through which the Company held ownership of the real estate properties, to MJRE. MJRE also assumed the senior notes and any and all obligations associated with the real estate properties and business, effective February 1, 2017.

 

Acquisition of Red Earth

 

On December 15, 2017, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Red Earth, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Red Earth”) established in October 2016, in exchange for 52,732,969 shares of its Common Stock and a promissory note in the amount of $900,000. The acquisition was accounted for as a “Reverse Merger”, whereby Red Earth was considered the accounting acquirer and became its wholly owned subsidiary. Upon the consummation of the acquisition, the now former members of Red Earth became the beneficial owners of approximately 88% of the Company’s Common Stock, obtained controlling interest of the Company, and retained certain of its key management positions. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger” or a “reverse acquisition”, the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger will be replaced with the historical financial statements of Red Earth prior to the reverse merger in all future filings with the SEC. Red Earth is the holder of a Nevada Marijuana Establishment Certificate for the cultivation of marijuana.

 

On or about May 7, 2021, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Red Earth, LLC (the “Subsidiary”), received an inquiry from the State of Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board (“CCB”) regarding the transfer of ownership of the Subsidiary from its previous owners to the Company. The CCB has determined that the transfer was not formally approved, thus a Category II violation.

 

On July 27, 2021, the Subsidiary entered into a Stipulation and Order for Settlement of Disciplinary Action (the “Stipulation Order”) with the CCB. Under the terms of the Stipulation Order, the Subsidiary has agreed to present to the CCB, by not later than August 31, 2021, a plan pursuant to which the ownership of the Subsidiary will be returned to the original owners. The Parties to the Stipulation Order resolved the matter without the necessity of taking formal action. The Subsidiary agreed to pay a civil penalty of $10,000, which was paid on July 29, 2021.

 

COVID-19

 

COVID-19 has caused and continues to cause significant loss of life and disruption to the global economy, including the curtailment of activities by businesses and consumers in much of the world as governments and others seek to limit the spread of the disease, and through business and transportation shutdowns and restrictions on people’s movement and congregation.

 

As a result of the pandemic, the Company has experienced, and continues to experience, weakened demand for its products. Many of its customers have been unable to sell its products in customer stores due to government-mandated closures and have deferred or significantly reduced orders for the Company’s products. The Company expects these trends to continue until such closures are significantly curtailed or lifted. In addition, the pandemic has reduced foot traffic in the stores where its products are sold that remain open, and the global economic impact of the pandemic has temporarily reduced consumer demand for its products as they focus on purchasing essential goods.

 

Given these factors, the Company anticipates that the greatest impact from the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 occurred in the second and third quarters and resulted in a significant net sales decline in its quarterly results.

 

In addition, certain of its suppliers and the manufacturers of certain of its products were adversely impacted by COVID-19. As a result, the Company faced delays or difficulty sourcing products, which negatively affected its business and financial results. Even if the Company were able to find alternate sources for such products, it may cost more and cause delays in its supply chain, which could adversely impact its profitability and financial condition.

 

The Company has taken actions to protect its employees in response to the pandemic, including closing its corporate offices and requiring its office employees to work from home. At its grow facilities, certain practices are in effect to safeguard workers, including a staggered work schedule, and the Company is continuing to monitor direction from local and national governments carefully.

 

As a result of the impact of COVID-19 on its financial results, and the anticipated future impact of the pandemic, the Company has implemented cost control measures and cash management actions, including:

 

Furloughing a significant portion of its employees; and
   
Implementing 20% salary reductions across its executive team and other members of upper-level management; and
   
Executing reductions in operating expenses, planned inventory levels and non-product development capital expenditures; and
   
Proactively managing working capital, including reducing incoming inventory to align with anticipated sales.

 

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Red Earth, LLC, HDGLV, LLC, Icon Management, LLC, Alternative Hospitality, Inc., Condo Highrise Management, LLC and Prescott Management, LLC. Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions are required in the determination of the fair value of financial instruments and the valuation of stock-based compensation. Some of these judgments can be subjective and complex, and, consequently, actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Cash

 

Cash includes cash on hand and deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use and with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts.

 

The Company, at various times throughout the year, had cash in financial institutions in excess of Federally insured limits. At June 30, 2021, the Company had $5,755,000 in excess. However, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its credit balances.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, prepaid expenses and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

 

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Level 1: The preferred inputs to valuation efforts are “quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities,” with the caveat that the reporting entity must have access to that market. Information at this level is based on direct observations of transactions involving the same assets and liabilities, not assumptions, and thus offers superior reliability. However, relatively few items, especially physical assets, actually trade in active markets.

 

Level 2: FASB acknowledged that active markets for identical assets and liabilities are relatively uncommon and, even when they do exist, they may be too thin to provide reliable information. To deal with this shortage of direct data, the board provided a second level of inputs that can be applied in these situations.

 

Level 3: If inputs from levels 1 and 2 are not available, FASB acknowledges that fair value measures of many assets and liabilities are less precise. The board describes Level 3 inputs as “unobservable,” and limits their use by saying they “shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.” This category allows “for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date”. The FASB explains that “observable inputs” are gathered from sources other than the reporting company and that they are expected to reflect assumptions made by market participants.

 

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s investment in marketable securities – available for sale was determined to be a level 1 investment.

 

    June 30, 2021     December 31, 2020  
Marketable securities     -       150,000  
Total   $ -     $ 150,000  

 

On February 17, 2021, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with ATG Holdings, LLC (the “ATG”). Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company purchased 1,500,000,000 shares of common stock of Healthier Choices Management Corp (“HCMC”) from ATG for the purchase price of $200,000. The transaction closed on February 19, 2021.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company liquidated its marketable securities that it received in the Stock Exchange Agreement with HCMC dated August 13, 2018 and the shares of HCMC that it received under the Agreement with ATG.

 

The net proceeds received by the Company for the sale of the marketable securities were $9,857,429.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amount and generally do not bear interest. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established, as necessary, based on past experience and other factors which, in management’s judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating bad debts. Such factors include growth and composition of accounts receivable, the relationship of the allowance for doubtful accounts to accounts receivable and current economic conditions. The determination of the collectability of amounts due from customer accounts requires the Company to make judgments regarding future events and trends. Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on assessing the Company’s portfolio on an individual customer and on an overall basis. This process consists of a review of historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer accounts, and the financial condition of the Company’s customers. Based on a review of these factors, the Company establishes or adjusts the allowance for specific customers and the accounts receivable portfolio as a whole.

 

    June 30,
2021
    December 31,
2020
 
Accounts receivable   $ 57,772     $ 23,675  
Less allowance     (39,518 )     (12,000 )
Net accounts receivable   $ 18,254     $ 11,675  

 

Debt Issuance Costs

 

Costs associated with obtaining, closing, and modifying loans and/or debt instruments are netted against the carrying amount of the debt instrument, and charged to interest expense over the term of the loan.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories consist of finished goods as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company determines cost on the basis of the first in first out method. The Company periodically reviews inventories for obsolescence and any inventories identified as obsolete are reserved or written off. The Company has performed a valuation and has established a reserve against its finished goods inventory.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated; maintenance and repairs that do not extend the life of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. Upon disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Construction in progress primarily represents the construction or the renovation costs stated at cost less any accumulated impairment loss, which is not depreciated. Costs incurred are capitalized and transferred to property and equipment upon completion, at which time depreciation commences.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Property and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Buildings 12 years
Land Not depreciated
Leasehold Improvements Lessor of lease term or 5 years
Machinery and Equipment 5 years
Furniture and Fixtures 5 years

 

Long–lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets, including real estate property and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of their carrying amounts to future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If the assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds its fair value.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company conducts its long-lived asset impairment analyses in accordance with ASC 360-10-15, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC 360-10-15 requires the Company to group assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities and evaluate the asset group against the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows. If the undiscounted cash flows do not indicate the carrying amount of the asset is recoverable, an impairment charge is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its fair value based on discounted cash flow analysis or appraisals. The Company recorded an impairment of its long-lived assets in the amount of $9,173 and $18,345 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and year ended December 31, 2020, respectively.

 

Other Current Liabilities

 

The Company’s other current liabilities consisted of amounts due under the management agreement and performance guarantee with Acres Cultivation, LLC. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, other current liabilities were $- and $1,328,438, respectively.

 

Non- Controlling Interest

 

The Company’s non-controlling interest represents the minority shareholder’s ownership interest related to the Company’s subsidiary, Alternative Hospitality, Inc. The Company reports its non-controlling interest in subsidiaries as a separate component of equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and reports both net loss attributable to the non-controlling interest and net loss attributable to the Company’s common shareholders on the face of the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company’s equity interest in Alternative Hospitality, Inc. is 51% and the non-controlling stockholder’s interest is 49%. This is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Equity.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers using the modified retrospective method. There was no impact upon adoption of ASC 606 on our consolidated financial statements. The new revenue standard was applied prospectively in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from January 1, 2018 forward and reported financial information for historical comparable periods will not be revised and will continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect during those historical periods.

 

Generally, the Company considers all revenues as arising from contracts with customers. Revenue is recognized based on the five-step process outlined in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606:

 

Step 1 – Identify the Contract with the Customer – A contract exists when (a) the parties to the contract have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, (b) the entity can identify each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred, (c) the entity can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred, (d) the contract has commercial substance and it is probably that the entity will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer.

 

Step 2 – Identify Performance Obligations in the Contract – Upon execution of a contract, the Company identifies as performance obligations each promise to transfer to the customer either (a) goods or services that are distinct, or (b) a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised goods or services, the Company must apply judgement to determine whether the goods or services are capable of being distinct within the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met, the goods or services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.

 

Step 3 – Determine the Transaction Price – When (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, the Company shall recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the performance obligation. The contract terms are used to determine the transaction price. Generally, all contracts include fixed consideration. If a contract did include variable consideration, the Company would determine the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price based on expected value method. Variable consideration would be included in the transaction price, if in the Company’s judgement, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract would not occur.

 

Step 4 – Allocate the Transaction Price – After the transaction price has been determined, the next step is to allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract. If the contract only has one performance obligation, the entire transaction price will be applied to that obligation. If the contract has multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations based on the relative standalone selling price (SSP) at contract inception.

 

Step 5 – Satisfaction of the Performance Obligations (and Recognize Revenue) – Revenue is recognized when (or as) goods or services are transferred to a customer. The Company satisfies each of its performance obligations by transferring control of the promised good or service underlying that performance obligation to the customer. Control is the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from an asset. It includes the ability to prevent other entities from directing the use of and obtaining the benefits from an asset. Indicators that control has passed to the customer include: a present obligation to pay; physical possession of the asset; legal title; risks and rewards of ownership; and acceptance of the asset(s). Performance obligations can be satisfied at a point in time or over time.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

The majority of the Company’s revenue was derived under the agreements, Consulting Agreement and Equipment Lease Agreement, entered into with Acres Cultivation, LLC. Revenue derived from consulting services fees are recognized over the term of the arrangement as services are provided. Revenue is presented net of discounts, fees and other related taxes. Revenue derived from equipment leases is recognized when the lease agreement is entered into and control of the equipment has passed to the customer. The Company’s remaining revenue is derived from its rental property in Nye County, Nevada. Rental revenue for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental revenue recognition commences when the leased space is available for use by the lessee.

 

    2021     2020  
    For the six months ended  
    June 30,  
    2021     2020  
Revenues:                
Rental income (i)   $ 40,169     $ 57,963  
Management income (ii)     341,398       328,313  
Equipment lease income (ii)     134,814       136,796  
Total   $ 516,381     $ 523,072  

 

  (i) The rental income is from the Company’s THC Park.
     
  (ii) In April 2018, the Company entered into a management agreement with Acres Cultivation, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Licensed Operator”) that holds a license for the legal cultivation of marijuana for sale under the laws of the State of Nevada. In January of 2019, the Company entered into a revised agreement, which replaced the April 2018 agreement, with the Licensed Operator in order to be more stringently aligned with Nevada marijuana laws. The material terms of the agreement remain unchanged. The Licensed Operator is contractually obligated to pay over to the Company eighty-five (85%) percent of gross revenues defined as gross proceeds from sales of marijuana products minus applicable state excise taxes and local sales tax. The agreement is to remain in force until April 2026. In April 2019, the Licensed Operator was acquired by Curaleaf Holdings, Inc., a publicly traded Canadian cannabis company. On January 21, 2021, the Company received a Notice of Termination, effective immediately, from Acres Cultivation, LLC. The Company does not anticipate that it will generate any further revenue under the Acres relationship.

 

Contract Balances

 

The Company receives payments for new Cultivation and Sales Agreements (the “Agreements”) upon signing and defers revenue recognition for these payments until certain milestones are met as per the terms of the Agreements. These payments represent contract liabilities and are recorded as such on the balance sheet. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had $1,270,000 and $0 contract liabilities, respectively.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company’s share-based payment awards principally consist of grants of common stock. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, stock-based payment awards are classified as either equity or liabilities. For equity-classified awards, the Company measures compensation cost based on the grant date fair value and recognizes compensation expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the requisite service or performance period the award is expected to vest. The fair value of liability-classified awards is at each reporting date through the settlement date. Change in fair value during the requisite service period will be remeasured as compensation cost over that period.

 

The Company utilizes its historical stock price to determine the volatility of any stock-based compensation.

 

The expected dividend yield is 0% as the Company has not paid any dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate it will pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant date with a term equal to the expected term of the stock-based award.

 

For stock-based financial instruments issued to parties other than employees, the Company uses the contractual term of the financial instruments as the expected term of the stock-based financial instruments.

 

The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based financial instruments represent its best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As a result, if factors change and it uses different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Operating Leases

 

The Company adopted ASC Topic 842, Leases, on January 1, 2019. The new leasing standard requires recognition of leases on the consolidated balance sheets as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use underlying assets for the lease terms and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the leases. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value and future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. A number of the lease agreements contain options to renew and options to terminate the leases early. The lease term used to calculate ROU assets and lease liabilities only includes renewal and termination options that are deemed reasonably certain to be exercised.

 

The Company recognized lease liabilities, with corresponding ROU assets, based on the present value of unpaid lease payments for existing operating leases longer than twelve months. The ROU assets were adjusted per ASC 842 transition guidance for existing lease-related balances of accrued and prepaid rent, and unamortized lease incentives provided by lessors. Operating lease cost is recognized as a single lease cost on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. Variable lease payments for common area maintenance, property taxes and other operating expenses are recognized as expense in the period when the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur. The Company has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for all property leases for the purposes of calculating ROU assets and lease liabilities.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance on deferred tax assets is established when management considers it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Tax benefits from an uncertain tax position are only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as incurred as a component of income tax expense. The Company has not recognized any tax benefits from uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Stock Based Compensation: In June 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share Based Payment Accounting.

 

The amendments in this Update expand the scope of stock compensation to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The guidance in this Update does not apply to transactions involving equity instruments granted to a lender or investor that provides financing to the issuer. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2018 including interim periods within the fiscal year. The Company adopted with an effective date of January 1, 2019.

 

Note 3 — Going Concern

 

The Company has recurring net losses, which have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $13,598,949 as of June 30, 2021. The Company had negative cash flows from operations of $3,849,327 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan, raise capital, and generate revenues. The Financial Statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s current capital resources include cash. Historically, the Company has financed its operations principally through equity and debt financing.

The Note has a term of one year (March 12, 2022 Maturity Date) and accrues interest at two percent (2%) per annum. The Note is convertible, at the option of the Holder, into shares of common stock of the Borrower at a fixed conversion price of $1.00 per share. Upon an Event of Default, the Conversion Price shall equal the Alternate Conversion Price (as defined herein) (subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower relating to the Borrower’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events). The “Alternate Conversion Price” shall equal the lesser of (i) 80% multiplied by the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices (“VWAP”) during the previous twenty (20) Trading Days (as defined below) before the Issue Date of this Note (representing a discount rate of 20%) or (ii) 80% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein) (representing a discount rate of 20%). “Market Price” means the average of the three lowest daily VWAPs for the Common Stock during the twenty (20) Trading Day period ending on the latest complete Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of twenty-four percent (24%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid (the “Default Interest”).

Note 6 — Intangible Assets

 

In October 2016, Red Earth entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement with the owner of a provisional Medical Marijuana Establishment Registration Certificate (the “Provisional Grow License”) issued by the state of Nevada for the cultivation of medical marijuana for $300,000. To initiate the purchase and transfer the Provisional Grow License, the Company paid a $25,000 deposit to the seller in October 2016. In February 2017, an investor advanced the Company $350,000.

 

The Provisional Grow License remains in a provisional status until the Company has completed the build out of a cultivation facility and obtained approval from the state of Nevada to begin cultivation in the approved facility. Once approval from the state of Nevada is received, the Company begins the cultivation process.

 

On or about May 7, 2021, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Red Earth, LLC (the “Subsidiary”), received an inquiry from the State of Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board (“CCB”) regarding the transfer of ownership of the Subsidiary from its previous owners to the Company. The CCB has determined that the transfer was not formally approved, thus a Category II violation.

 

On July 27, 2021, the Subsidiary entered into a Stipulation and Order for Settlement of Disciplinary Action (the “Stipulation Order”) with the CCB. Under the terms of the Stipulation Order, the Subsidiary has agreed to present to the CCB, by not later than August 31, 2021, a plan pursuant to which the ownership of the Subsidiary will be returned to the original owners. The Parties to the Stipulation Order resolved the matter without the necessity of taking formal action. The Subsidiary agreed to pay a civil penalty of $10,000, which was paid on July 29, 2021.

Litigation

 

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company is aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a loss will result and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company will record a liability for the loss. In addition to the estimated loss, the liability includes probable and estimable legal cost associated with the claim or potential claim. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the Company business.

 

DGMD Complaint

 

On March 19, 2021, a Complaint was filed against the Company, Jim Mueller, John Mueller, MachNV, LLC, Acres Cultivation, Paris Balaouras, Dimitri Deslis, ATG Holdings, LLC and Curaleaf, Inc. (collectively, the “Defendants”) by DGMD Real Estate Investments, LLC, ARMPRO, LLC, Zhang Springs LV, LLC, Prodigy Holdings, LLC and Green Organics, LLC (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada.

 

In the Complaint, the Plaintiffs allege that the Defendants: (i) intended to fraudulently obtain money from the Plaintiffs in order to put that money towards the Acres dispensary and to make Acres look more appealing to potential buyers as well as pay off Defendants’ agents, and (ii) the Defendants acted together in order to find investors to invest money into the Acres and MJ Holdings “Investment Schemes”, and (iii) the Defendants intended to fraudulently obtain Plaintiffs’ money for the purpose of harming the Plaintiffs to benefit the Defendants, and (iv) the Defendants committed unlawful fraudulent misrepresentation in the furtherance of the agreement to defraud the Plaintiffs. The Plaintiffs allege that damages are in excess of $15,000.

 

As the complaint pleads only the statutory minimum of damages, the Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from this matter but believes it is without merit as to liability and otherwise deminimis as to damages. Thus, the Company does not expect this matter to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or its results of operations. The Company will vigorously defend itself against this action and has filed an appropriate and timely answer to the Complaint including a lengthy and comprehensive series of affirmative defenses and liability and damage avoidances.

 

Tierney Arbitration

 

On March 9, 2021, Terrence Tierny, the Company’s former President and Secretary, filed for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association for: (i) breach of contract, (i) breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and (iii) NRS 608 wage claim. Mr. Tierney demanded payment in the amount of $501,085 for deferred business compensation, business compensation, expenses paid on behalf of the Company, accrued vacation and severance pay.

 

On April 7, 2021, the Company made payment against the wage claim in the amount of $62,392, inclusive of $59,583 for wages and $2,854 for accrued vacation.

Accordingly, the Board may, without stockholder approval, issue shares of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of Common Stock. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of restricting dividends payable to holders of our Common Stock, diluting the voting power of our Common Stock, impairing the liquidation rights of our Common Stock, or delaying or preventing a change in control of us, all without further action by our stockholders. Of the 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, authorized in our Articles of Incorporation, 2,500 shares are designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

 

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the stated value of each share of Series A Preferred Stock (currently, $1,000) by the conversion price (currently, $0.75). The stated value and the conversion price are subject to adjustment as provided for in the Certificate of Designation. We are prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion, the holder (together with such holder’s affiliates and any persons acting as a group with holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion. A holder, upon notice to us, may increase or decrease this beneficial ownership limitation; provided, that, in no event can the holder increase the beneficial ownership limitation in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock then held by holder. Such increase of the beneficial ownership limitation cannot be effective until the 61st day after such notice is given to us and shall apply only to such holder. The Series A Preferred Stock has no voting rights; however, as long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, we are not permitted, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to (i) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences, or rights given to the Series A Preferred Stock or alter or amend the Series A Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation, (ii) amend our Articles of Incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders, (iii) increase the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or (iv) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the forgoing.

None

 

At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 0 and 0 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

 

Note 10 — Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Common Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income or net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the treasury stock method and reflects the potential dilution that could occur if warrants were exercised and were not anti-dilutive.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, basic and diluted loss per common share were the same since there were no potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the respective periods. The outstanding warrants and options as of June 30, 2021, to purchase 760,000 shares of 1,010,000 common stock were not included in the calculations of diluted loss per share because the impact would have been anti-dilutive. 207,479 common stock equivalents were included in the calculation as their impact would have been dilutive.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, basic and diluted income per common share were based on 69,580,992 and 69,969,539 shares, respectively.

Company Overview

 

MJ Holdings, Inc. (OTCPK: MJNE) is a highly-diversified cannabis holding company providing cultivation management, asset and infrastructure development – currently concentrated in the Las Vegas market. It is the Company’s intention to grow its business and provide a 360-degree spectrum of infrastructure, including, cannabis cultivation, production of cannabis related products, management services, dispensaries and consulting services. The Company intends to grow its business through joint ventures with existing companies possessing complementary subject matter expertise, acquisition of existing companies and through the development of new opportunities. The Company intends to “prove the concept” profitably in the rapidly expanding Las Vegas market and then use that anticipated success as a template for replicating the concept in other developing states through a combination of strategic partnerships, acquisitions and opening new operations.

 

Current Initiatives include:

 

  a three-acre, hybrid, outdoor, marijuana-cultivation facility (the “Cultivation Facility”) located in the Amargosa Valley of Nevada. The Company has the contractual right to manage and cultivate marijuana on this property until 2026, for which it will receive eighty-five percent (85%) of the net revenues realized from its management of this facility. The licensed facility is owned by Acres Cultivation, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. The Company completed its second harvest on this property in November of 2019 and had anticipated generating revenue from this harvest until late Q4 of 2020. The impact of COVID-19 greatly impacted the continuing sale of inventory from this harvest. In April of this year, the Company planted a one acre auto-flower crop, which it began harvesting in late June. On January 21, 2021, the Company received a Notice of Termination, effective immediately, from Acres Cultivation, LLC. The Company does not anticipate that it will generate any further revenue under the Acres relationship.

 

  260 acres of farmland for the purpose of cultivating additional marijuana (the “260 Acres”) purchased in January of 2019. The Company intends to utilize the state-of-the-art Cravo® cultivation system for growing an additional five acres of marijuana on this property, that is contiguous to the three-acre property that it manages in Amargosa. The Cravo® system will allow multiple harvests per year and should result in higher annual yields per acre. The land has more than 180-acre feet of permitted water rights, which will provide more than sufficient water to markedly increase the Company’s marijuana cultivation capabilities. During the 1st quarter of 2021, the Company elected to relocate its equipment previously located on the Acres lease to its 260 acres for future grows. The 260 acres will be home to multiple grows from independent growers under multiple Cultivation and Sales Agreements.

 

  Cultivation and Sales Agreements entered into for multiple grows on the Company’s 260-acre farm located in the Amargosa Valley of Nevada. During the 4th quarter of 2021 and 1st quarter of 2021, the Company entered into separate Cultivation and Sales Agreements, whereby the Company shall retain certain independent growers to provide oversight and management of the Company’s cultivation and sale of products at its 260-acre farm. The independent growers shall pay to the Company a royalty of net sales revenue with a minimum royalty after two years.

  an agreement to acquire an additional cultivation license and production license, both currently located in Nye County Nevada. On February 5, 2021, the Company (the “Purchaser”) executed a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (“MIPA3”) with MJ Distributing, Inc. (the “Seller”) to acquire all of the outstanding membership interests of MJ Distributing C202, LLC and MJ Distributing P133, LLC, each the holder of a State of Nevada provisional medical and recreational cultivation license and a provisional medical and recreational production license. In consideration of the sale, transfer, assignment and delivery of the Membership Interests to Purchaser, and the covenants made by Seller under the MIPA3, Purchaser agrees to pay a combination of cash, promissory notes, and stock in the amount of One-Million-Two-Hundred-Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000.00) in cash and/or promissory notes and 200,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock, all of which constitutes the consideration agreed to herein for (the “Purchase Price”), payable as follows: (i) a non-refundable down payment in the amount of $300,000 was made on January 15, 2021, (ii) the second payment in the amount of $200,000 was made on February 5, 2021, (iii) a deposit in the amount of $310,000 was paid on February 22, 2021 ($210,000 was a pre-payment against future compensation due under the MIPA3), (iv) $200,000 was deposited on June 24, 2021, (v) $200,000 shall be deposited on or before June 12, 2021, and (vi) $250,000 shall be deposited within five (5) business days after the Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board (“CCB”) provides notice on its agenda that the Licenses are set for hearing to approve the transfer of ownership from the Seller to the Purchaser.
     
  indoor cultivation facility build-out in the City of Las Vegas (the “Indoor Facility”). Through its subsidiary, Red Earth, LLC, the Company holds a Medical Marijuana Establishment Registration Certificate, Application No. C012. In August of 2019, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Element NV, LLC (“Element”), to sell a 49% interest in the license. Under the terms of the Agreement, Element was required to invest more than $3,500,000 into this Indoor Facility. Element paid the monthly rent on the facility from December 2019 through March 2020 but failed to make any additional payments. On June 11, 2020, the Company entered into the First Amendment (“First Amendment”) to the Agreement. Under the terms of the First Amendment, the Closing Purchase Price was adjusted to $441,000, and Element was required to make a capital contribution (the “Initial Contribution Payment”) to the Target Company in the amount of $120,000 and was required to make an additional cash contribution (the Final Contribution Payment”) in the amount of $240,000. Due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s respective business operations, the Company has not been able to pay the monthly rent. As of the date of this filing, the Company is in active negotiations with the landlord to find an acceptable resolution regarding the payment of past due rent. The Company has terminated its discussions with Element regarding its past due payments and has elected to place the Certificate up for sale.

Termination of Acres Cultivation, LLC Agreement

 

On January 21, 2021, the Company received a Notice of Termination (the “Notice”), effective immediately, from Acres Cultivation, LLC (“Acres”) on the following three (3) agreements (collectively, herein the “Cooperation Agreement”):

 

  (i) The Cultivation and Sales Agreement entered into by and between MJNE and Acres, dated as of January 1, 2019 (the “Cultivation and Sales Agreement” or “CSA”), pursuant to Sections 5.3, and 16.20 (cross-default);

 

  (ii) The Consulting Agreement, by and between Acres and MJNE, made as of January 1, 2019 (the “Consulting Agreement”), pursuant to Sections 10 and 11.10 (cross-default); and
     
  (iii) The Equipment Lease Agreement between Acres and MJNE, dated as of January 1, 2019 (the “Equipment Lease Agreement”), pursuant to Sections 8(ii), 8(iv), and 29 (cross-default).

 

The Company initiated relocating its equipment to its 260-acre farm at the end of the first quarter and does not anticipate that it will generate any further revenue under the Acres relationship.

 

The Company may also continue to seek to identify potential acquisitions of revenue producing assets and licenses within legalized cannabis markets that can maximize shareholder value.

 

The Company may face substantial competition in the operation of cultivation facilities in Nevada. Numerous other companies have also been granted cultivation licenses, and, therefore, the Company anticipates that it will face competition from these other companies. The Company’s management team has experience in successfully developing, implementing, and operating marijuana cultivation and related businesses in other legal cannabis markets. The Company believes its experience in outdoor cultivation provides it with a distinct competitive advantage over its competitors, and it will continue to focus on this area of its operations. The Company still faces challenges engaging and retaining senior managers.

 

The Company presently occupies an office suite located at 7320 S. Rainbow Blvd., Suite 102-210, Las Vegas, NV 89139. On January 12, 2021, the Company closed on the sale of its corporate office building located at 1300 S. Jones Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89146 for the sale price of $1,627,500. The Company plans on remaining at its current location for the next 3-6 months until it can identify a new corporate office.

COVID-19

 

The novel coronavirus commonly referred to as “COVID-19” was identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a global health emergency, and on March 11, 2020, the spread of COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. On March 13, 2020, the spread of COVID-19 was declared a national emergency by former President Donald Trump. The outbreak has spread throughout Europe, the Middle East and North America, causing companies and various international jurisdictions to impose restrictions such as quarantines, business closures and travel restrictions. While these effects are expected to be temporary, the duration of the business disruptions internationally and related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The rapid development of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures being taken by governments and private parties to respond to it are extremely fluid. While the Company has continuously sought to assess the potential impact of the pandemic on its financial and operating results, any assessment is subject to extreme uncertainty as to probability, severity and duration of the pandemic as reflected by infection rates at local, state, and regional levels. The Company has attempted to assess the impact of the pandemic by identifying risks in the following principal areas:

 

Mandatory Closures. In response to the pandemic, many states and localities implemented mandatory closures of, or limitations to, businesses to prevent the spread of COVID-19; this impacted the Company’s operations. More recently, the mandatory closures that impacted the Company’s operations were lifted and the Company resumed full operations, albeit subject to various COVID-19 related precautions and changes in local infection rates. The Company’s ability to generate revenue would be materially impacted by any future shut down of its operations.

 

Customer Impact. While the Company has not experienced an overall downturn in demand for its products in connection with the pandemic, if its customers become ill with COVID-19, are forced to quarantine, decide to self-quarantine or not to visit stores where its products may be sold or distribution points to observe “social distancing”, it may have material negative impact on demand for its products while the pandemic continues. While the Company has implemented measures, to reduce infection risk to its customers, regulators may not permit such measures, or such measures may not prevent a reduction in demand.

 

Supply Chain Disruption. The Company relies on third party suppliers for equipment and services to produce its products and keep its operations going. If its suppliers are unable to continue operating due to mandatory closures or other effects of the pandemic, it may negatively impact its own ability to continue operating. At this time, the Company has not experienced any failure to secure critical supplies or services. However, disruptions in the Company’s supply chain may affect its ability to continue certain aspects of the Company’s operations or may significantly increase the cost of operating its business and significantly reduce its margins.

 

Staffing Disruption. The Company is, for the time being, implementing among its staff where feasible “social distancing” measures recommended by such bodies as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the Presidential Administration, as well as state and local governments. The Company has cancelled non-essential travel by employees, implemented remote meetings where possible, and permitted all staff who can work remotely to do so. For those whose duties require them to work on-site, measures have been implemented to reduce infection risk, such as reducing contact with customers, mandating additional cleaning of workspaces and hand disinfection, providing masks and gloves to certain personnel, and contact tracing following reports of employee infection. Nevertheless, despite such measures, the Company may find it difficult to ensure that its operations remain staffed due to employees falling ill with COVID-19, becoming subject to quarantine, or deciding not to come to come to work on their own volition to avoid infection. At certain locations, the Company has experienced increased absenteeism due to increased COVID-19 infection rates in certain locales. If such absenteeism increases, the Company may not be able, including through replacement and temporary staff, to continue to operate at desired levels in some or all locations.

 

Regulatory Backlog. Regulatory authorities, including those that oversee the cannabis industry on the state level, are heavily occupied with their response to the pandemic. These regulators as well as other executive and legislative bodies in the states in which the Company operates may not be able to provide the level of support and attention to day-to-day regulatory functions as well as to needed regulatory development and reform that they would otherwise have provided. Such regulatory backlog may materially hinder the development of the Company’s business by delaying such activities as product launches, facility openings and approval of business acquisitions, thus materially impeding development of its business. The Company is actively addressing the risk to business continuity represented by each of the above factors through the implementation of a broad range of measures throughout its structure and is reassessing its response to the COVID-19 pandemic on an ongoing basis. The above risks individually or collectively may have a material impact on the Company’s ability to generate revenue. Implementing measures to remediate the risks identified above may materially increase the Company’s costs of doing business, reduce its margins and potentially result in losses. While the Company has not to date experienced any overall material negative impact on its operations or financial results related to the impact of the pandemic, so long as the pandemic and measures taken in response to the pandemic are not abated, substantial risk of such impact remains, which could negatively impact the Company’s ability to generate revenue and/or profits, raise capital and complete its development plans.

 

Limited availability of vaccine. On December 11, 2020, the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an emergency use authorization (EUA) for the Pfizer BioN-Tech COVID-19 vaccine, the first such approval. Additional EUAs were issued on December 18, 2020 for a vaccine created by Moderna, and on February 27, 2021 for a vaccine created by Janssen Biotech (a Johnson & Johnson affiliate). As of April 4, 2021, the CDC reports that approximately 168 million doses of the various vaccines have been administered in the U.S., although both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines require the administration of two doses for full effectiveness. On March 2, 2021, President Biden stated that the U.S. will have sufficient vaccine supply for all adults by the end of May 2021. Actual delivery of the vaccines to individuals, however, is controlled by state and local governments using various prioritization criteria and states continue to impose activity limitations and other precautions on businesses during this period until the vaccine is widely disseminated. In addition, there can be no assurance of when the Company’s employees in any particular jurisdiction will be able to access the vaccine. Moreover, there can be no assurance that all employees will choose to avail themselves of the vaccine or, if so, when they will choose to do so. The same applies to the Company’s, customers, regulators, and suppliers. Consequently, the COVID-19 risk factors described above continue to be applicable.

Corporate History

 

The Company was incorporated on November 17, 2006, as Securitas EDGAR Filings, Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada. Prior to the formation of Securitas EDGAR Filings Inc., the business was operated as Xpedient EDGAR Filings, LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company, formed on October 31, 2005. On November 21, 2005, Xpedient EDGAR Filings LLC amended its Articles of Organization to change its name to Securitas EDGAR Filings, LLC. On January 21, 2009, Securitas EDGAR Filings LLC merged into Securitas EDGAR Filings, Inc., a Nevada corporation. On February 14, 2014, the Company amended and restated its Articles of Incorporation and changed its name to MJ Holdings, Inc.

 

On November 22, 2016, in connection with a plan to divest the Company of its real estate business, the Company submitted to its stockholders an offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) its common stock for shares in MJ Real Estate Partners, LLC, (“MJRE”) a newly-formed LLC formed for the sole purpose of effecting the Exchange Offer. On January 10, 2017, the Company accepted for exchange 1,800,000 shares of its Common Stock in exchange for 1,800,000 shares of MJRE’s common units, representing membership interests in MJRE. Effective February 1, 2017, the Company transferred its ownership interests in the real estate properties and its subsidiaries, through which the Company held ownership of the real estate properties, to MJRE. MJRE also assumed the senior notes and any and all obligations associated with the real estate properties and business, effective February 1, 2017.

 

Acquisition of Red Earth

 

On December 15, 2017, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Red Earth, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Red Earth”) established in October 2016, in exchange for 52,732,969 shares of its Common Stock and a promissory note in the amount of $900,000. The acquisition was accounted for as a “Reverse Merger”, whereby Red Earth was considered the accounting acquirer and became its wholly owned subsidiary. Upon the consummation of the acquisition, the now former members of Red Earth became the beneficial owners of approximately 88% of the Company’s Common Stock, obtained controlling interest of the Company, and retained certain of its key management positions. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger” or a “reverse acquisition”, the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger will be replaced with the historical financial statements of Red Earth prior to the reverse merger in all future filings with the SEC. Red Earth is the holder of a Nevada Marijuana Establishment Certificate for the cultivation of marijuana.

 

On or about May 7, 2021, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Red Earth, LLC (the “Subsidiary”), received an inquiry from the State of Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board (“CCB”) regarding the transfer of ownership of the Subsidiary from its previous owners to the Company. The CCB has determined that the transfer was not formally approved, thus a Category II violation.

 

The consolidated financial statements after completion of the reverse merger included: the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the combined company from and after the closing date of the reverse merger, with only certain aspects of pre-consummation stockholders’ equity remaining in the consolidated financial statements. In February of 2019, the Company repurchased, from the Company’s largest shareholder, 20,000,000 of the 26,366,484 shares of common stock that this shareholder originally received in connection with the Reverse Merger - for a total purchase price of $20,000.

 

On July 27, 2021, the Subsidiary entered into a Stipulation and Order for Settlement of Disciplinary Action (the “Stipulation Order”) with the CCB. Under the terms of the Stipulation Order, the Subsidiary has agreed to present to the CCB, by not later than August 31, 2021, a plan pursuant to which the ownership of the Subsidiary will be returned to the original owners. The Parties to the Stipulation Order resolved the matter without the necessity of taking formal action. The Subsidiary agreed to pay a civil penalty of $10,000, which was paid on July 29, 2021.

 

Our Business

 

We commenced cultivation activities on our three-acre managed cultivation facility in August of 2018, harvesting more than 5400 pounds of marijuana through December of 2018. In the fourth quarter of 2019, we completed our 2019 harvest of approximately 4,800 marijuana plants with expected yield of more than 3,300 pounds of marijuana flower and trim. As of the time of this filing, we have completed our 2020 harvest of approximately 7,600 marijuana plants with expected yield of more than 4,700 pounds of marijuana flower and trim. It is our intention to grow our business through the acquisition of existing companies and/or through the development of new opportunities that can provide a 360-degree spectrum of infrastructure (dispensaries), cultivation and production management, and consulting services in the regulated cannabis industry.

  (ii) In April 2018, the Company entered into a management agreement with Acres Cultivation, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Licensed Operator”) that holds a license for the legal cultivation of marijuana for sale under the laws of the State of Nevada. In January of 2019, the Company entered into a revised agreement, which replaced the April 2018 agreement, with the Licensed Operator in order to be more stringently aligned with Nevada marijuana laws. The material terms of the agreement remain unchanged. The Licensed Operator is contractually obligated to pay over to the Company eighty-five (85%) percent of gross revenues defined as gross proceeds from sales of marijuana products minus applicable state excise taxes and local sales tax. The agreement is to remain in force until April 2026. In April 2019, the Licensed Operator was acquired by Curaleaf Holdings, Inc., a publicly traded Canadian cannabis company.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Due to resource constraints, material weaknesses are evident to management regarding our inability to generate all the necessary disclosure for inclusion in our filings with the Securities and Exchanges Commission, which is due to the lack of resources and segregation of duties. We lack sufficient personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in GAAP to meet the demands for a public company, including the accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of GAAP-based reporting. This weakness causes us to not fully identify and resolve accounting and disclosure issues that could lead to a failure to perform timely internal control and reviews. In addition, the Company has not established an audit committee, does not have any independent outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors, and lacks documentation of its internal control processes.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change to our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during the period ended June 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, our Board is currently seeking to improve our controls and procedures to remediate the deficiency described above.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company is aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a loss will result and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company will record a liability for the loss. I addition to the estimated loss, the liability includes probable and estimable legal cost associated with the claim or potential claim. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the Company business. There is no pending litigation involving the Company at this time.

On March 19, 2021, a Complaint was filed against the Company, Jim Mueller, John Mueller, MachNV, LLC, Acres Cultivation, Paris Balaouras, Dimitri Deslis, ATG Holdings, LLC and Curaleaf, Inc. (collectively, the “Defendants”) by DGMD Real Estate Investments, LLC, ARMPRO, LLC, Zhang Springs LV, LLC, Prodigy Holdings, LLC and Green Organics, LLC (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada.

 

In the Complaint, the Plaintiffs allege that the Defendants: (i) intended to fraudulently obtain money from the Plaintiffs in order to put that money towards the Acres dispensary and to make Acres look more appealing to potential buyers as well as pay off Defendants’ agents, and (ii) the Defendants acted together in order to find investors to invest money into the Acres and MJ Holdings “Investment Schemes”, and (iii) the Defendants intended to fraudulently obtain Plaintiffs’ money for the purpose of harming the Plaintiffs to benefit the Defendants, and (iv) the Defendants committed unlawful fraudulent misrepresentation in the furtherance of the agreement to defraud the Plaintiffs. The Plaintiffs allege that damages are in excess of $15,000.

 

As the complaint pleads only the statutory minimum of damages, the Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from this matter but believes it is without merit as to liability and otherwise deminimis as to damages. Thus, the Company does not expect this matter to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or its results of operations. The Company will vigorously defend itself against this action and has filed an appropriate and timely answer to the Complaint including a lengthy and comprehensive series of affirmative defenses and liability and damage avoidances.

Mr. Tierney demanded payment in the amount of $501,084.67 for deferred business compensation, business compensation, expenses paid on behalf of the Company, accrued vacation and severance pay. On April 7, 2021, the Company made payment against the wage claim in the amount of $62,392, inclusive of $59,583 for wages and $2,854 for accrued vacation.

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Regulations outlined by the Nevada Cannabis Control Board, as amended from time to time (the “Act” and together with the rules and regulations thereunder, the “RTMA”), the State of Nevada Cannabis Control Board (“CCB”) has issued a cultivation facility license pursuant to which MJNE may cultivate (grow), process, and package marijuana; sell marijuana to retail marijuana stores; and operate marijuana product manufacturing facilities and sell to other cultivation facilities, which license MJNE is in the process of moving to the Cultivation Facility (as defined below) (the “Cultivation License”);

 

WHEREAS, Company represents that it has specialized knowledge, skills, technology, and experience in cultivation, and otherwise has the experience and skill necessary to cultivate and manage the cultivation of marijuana necessary to operate such an operation in the State of Nevada;

 

WHEREAS, as of the Effective Date, MJNE is in the process of finalizing the Cultivation Facility, as defined herein, and obtaining all approvals required by the CCB and the State of Nevada and will provide Company notice of when it can begin operations pursuant to applicable law and under this Agreement. The Parties agree that Company cannot commence operations at the Cultivation Facility under this Agreement until such time as it has been so notified, in writing, by MJNE (the “Commencement Notice”) and MJNE cannot estimate when the requisite approvals from the CCB and the State of Nevada will be forthcoming; and

 

WHEREAS, MJNE and Company desire to enter into an agreement whereby MJNE retains Company to provide the cultivation of one or more lines of product (as described on the Summary of Commercial Terms set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein) for sale in the State of Nevada under the Cultivation License (the “Cultivation Services”) at MJNE’s facility located at 2215 E. Anvil Road Amargosa Valley, Nevada 89020 (the “Cultivation Facility”) on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

 
 

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals which are incorporated herein and made part of this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, agreeing to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Engagement and Cultivation Rights. As of the Effective Date MJNE hereby engages Company, on a non-exclusive basis, and Company hereby accepts such engagement and agrees, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, to provide the Cultivation Services pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Company hereby is granted the right to develop, manage, and produce on behalf of MJNE all Company-branded products, including but not limited to those set forth on Exhibit A; provided, however, that (a) Company is authorized by MJNE to produce all products that may be lawfully grown and distributed in Nevada pursuant to applicable law, including CCB guidelines and the RTMA; (b) Company shall use commercially-reasonable efforts to maximize the production and sales of the products grown at the Cultivation Facility under this Agreement, subject to compliance with all applicable laws; (c) Company shall commence making its improvements to the Designated Acreage within 120 calendar days of the date of the Commencement Notice and shall begin cultivation on the Designated Acreage (as evidenced by registration of the first plants with the CCB) by the first day of Spring following the Commencement Notice or when the CCB approves cultivation activities at the Designated Acreage, whichever occurs later; and (d) Company complies with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including but not limited to those pertaining to the labeling of product sold hereunder.

 

2. Term; Renewal; Termination.

 

(a) Term. This Agreement shall commence on the date of the Commencement Notice and shall continue for a period of 10 years thereafter (the “Initial Term”), unless earlier terminated as provided in Section 2(c).

 

(b) Renewal. Upon expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive five-year terms, or as the Parties otherwise agree in writing prior the expiration of the then-current term (each, a “Renewal Term” and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”), unless either Party provides the other written notice of termination at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the applicable Term. The terms, covenants and conditions of any Renewal Term shall be the same as the terms, covenants, and conditions in effect immediately prior to such renewal unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing prior to the commencement of the new Renewal Term.

 

(c) Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time upon the mutual agreement of the Parties or if Company fails to cure any default or breach of the Agreement within 30 business days from notification of such breach/default (or such shorter time as required by applicable law). In addition, upon the occurrence of any one of the following events, either Party may terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term by providing written notice to the other Party stating the intended date of termination: (i) subject to Section 20, any breach or default of this Agreement by the other Party which remains uncured in accordance with Section 20(a) or Section 20(b) hereof; (ii) any grossly negligent or intentional or willful misconduct by the other Party; (iii) any federal enforcement action of the type described in Section 24 against MJNE, Company, or any of their respective affiliates, employees or independent contractors; (iv) any change or revocation of state or local law, regulation or licensing, that has the effect of prohibiting the legal operation of the Cultivation Facility or the performance of the Cultivation Services; provided, however, that any change that only impacts compliance and/or operation, or causes costs of goods to be more expensive or difficult shall not provide a basis for termination under this clause (iv); and (v) CCB’s refusal to approve an application to renew, or revocation of, the Cultivation License. In the event of any termination of this Agreement, Company personnel shall be denied access to the Cultivation Facility without the express permission of MJNE. The Parties shall use reasonable commercial efforts to wind down operations of Company in an organized and efficient manner. Company shall pay for and be responsible for any and all costs associated with winding down Company operations at the Cultivation Facility.

(d) CCB Approval. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement is subject to the approval of the CCB. The Parties will work together in good faith to provide information to the CCB pursuant to applicable Nevada law. In the event that the CCB does not approve this Agreement or that the Cultivation License is not authorized for use at the Cultivation Facility, the Agreement shall be terminated and neither Party shall have any obligation to the other under this Agreement or arising in connection with this Agreement, including any obligation related to costs or expenses incurred in anticipation of such approval by either Party. Alternatively, if both Parties agree, the Parties may elect to work together in good faith to modify the Agreement to bring it into conformance with CCB guidelines/requests and to further extend the Agreement.

 

3. Obligations of Company. The following obligations of Company are in addition to any and all obligations set forth elsewhere in this Agreement (including, without limitation, those in Section 1, above), or imposed by applicable law, rule, or regulation, including any orders or policies promulgated by the CCB.

 

(a) Compliance. Company shall (i) be responsible for the logistics, development, ingredient sourcing, cultivation, preparation and storage at or from the Designated Acreage (as defined below), and sale of the its products and (ii) comply at all times with the RTMA and all applicable rules, regulations and requirements in the provision of the Cultivation Services, subject to MJNE’s good faith assistance and cooperation; provided, that MJNE has the right to require Company to take any and all reasonable actions that MJNE deems necessary or advisable to ensure compliance with RTMA or any other applicable rules, requirements or regulations. The Parties shall cooperate and work together to take any action necessary in furtherance of, in compliance with, or otherwise in any way related to any change whatsoever in any applicable law, rule, statute, regulation, the entitlement and/or approval process, or other process or requirement related to the Cultivation Services that comes into being, occurs, accrues, becomes effective or otherwise becomes applicable or required after the Effective Date. Company shall follow, conform to and abide by any such changes and any regulatory matters. Company shall further address and cure any noncompliance and pay any fines or assessments arising in connection with the failure of the Company or any of its employees or independent contractors to comply with applicable law and all other costs associated therewith.

 

(b) Standard of Care.

(c) Packaging. Company shall comply with all legal requirements pertaining to the labeling of its products grown or produced at the Cultivation Facility, including any regulatory approval of such labels, which labels share bear MJNE’s approved logo in such a manner as shall be directed by MJNE.

 

(d) Insurance. Prior to commencing operations under this Agreement, Company shall obtain, and thereafter, through the Term, shall maintain industry-standard insurance for an operation comparable to that contemplated, including the Cultivation Services, including workers’ compensation insurance and product liability insurance, the scope and policy limits of which insurance shall be subject to MJNE’s approval. Without limiting the foregoing, during the Term, Company shall maintain a policy of commercial general liability insurance (sometimes known as broad form comprehensive general liability insurance) insuring Company against liability for bodily injury, property damage (including loss of use of property) and personal injury arising out of the operation, use, or occupancy of the Cultivation Facility. Company shall name MJNE and its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, and employees, as additional insureds under such policy or policies and shall provide a certificate of insurance or policy endorsements acceptable to MJNE prior to commencing operation but no later than 20 calendar days from obtaining its initial coverage and upon each renewal. Coverage shall be for no less than US$1,000,000 per occurrence; shall be provided by a carrier reasonably acceptable to MJNE; and with a deductible or retention amount reasonably acceptable to MJNE. MJNE may require a reasonable increase in coverage amounts during the Term. The amount and scope of coverage of such insurance shall not limit Company’s liability nor relieve Company of any other obligation under this Agreement. MJNE may also obtain comprehensive public liability insurance in an amount and with coverage determined by MJNE insuring MJNE against liability arising out of the ownership, operation, use, or occupancy of the Cultivation Facility, including the Designated Area. Any insurance obtained by MJNE shall not be contributory and shall not provide primary insurance. Company’s insurance policies shall provide that MJNE shall be notified if there is a lapse in coverage, a pending lapse in coverage, or if any claim has been made upon such coverage. MJNE also may require Company to maintain, during the term of this Agreement, a policy of commercial loss of income insurance (business interruption insurance) insuring the Company and MJNE against loss of income resulting from Company’s inability to operate and/or produce product. MJNE shall provide Company a 30-day notice requiring Company to obtain such loss of income insurance.

 

(e) Labor Matters.

 

(i) Company may utilize subcontractors to provide any of the Cultivation Services so long as such subcontractors are selected by Company with due care and Company has reasonable assurances that such subcontractors can perform the Cultivation Services pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement, including the Standard of Care; provided, however, that no such utilization will relieve Company of any of its obligations or liabilities under this Agreement. Neither Company nor the employees, contractors, or agents of Company providing Cultivation Services hereunder will be considered employees of MJNE for any purpose. Company will be solely responsible for all matters pertaining to the employment, supervision, compensation, promotion, termination, daily direction, and control of its employees.

(h) Supplies, Equipment and Tools. Company shall be responsible for the selection, purchase, and acquisition of all supplies, equipment, and tools required to deliver the Cultivation Services (the “Equipment”), which Equipment shall remain the property of Company. Company shall use commercially-reasonable efforts to mark otherwise designate its Equipment as its property and shall maintain (and provide to MJNE from time to time, upon MJNE’s reasonable request) an accurate record identifying its property. Company shall have the right, at its own cost, to install or attach cultivation structures and equipment on the Designated Acreage; provided, however, that (A) such structures and equipment meet the requirements or specifications of the CCB and applicable laws, rules, and regulations; (B) all specifications and plans for structures and equipment be provided in advance to MJNE, along with copies of such documents that are required to be submitted to any applicable regulatory authority; (C) no equipment or structures that are subject to regulatory approval shall be installed or place on the Designated Acreage without the receipt of any necessary regulatory approval; and (D) any structures or equipment that are affixed, meaning attached to the ground permanently, to the Designated Acreage shall become the property of MJNE upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason (further provided that MJNE, in its sole but reasonable discretion, may require Company to remove such structures or equipment at Company’s sole expense upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason).

 

(i) Testing. Company shall cooperate with MJNE to implement all actions necessary for product testing and analytics for all products produced and developed at the Cultivation Facility by or on behalf of Company to ensure compliance with the RTMA and all other applicable rules, regulations, requirements, and laws. MJNE shall facilitate the testing of products by a duly-licensed laboratory or testing provider, provided that Company shall pay all costs and expenses related to that testing. Each Party shall be provided copies of the results of any product testing.

At least once per calendar month, on or before the 15th of the month, Company shall provide MJNE with a detailed report of the immediately preceding month’s sales. Company must use the accounting and tracking system required by the CCB from time to time and as delegated to Company by MJNE (as of the Effective Date, the CCB-designated seed-to-sale tracking compliance system is Metrc Nevada (“Metrc”)). All sales must be accompanied by a sales report, delivery manifest and cash receipts. Product sales and all pertinent data shall be input through Metrc, as directed by MJNE (or such other tracking and compliance system as may be designated by the CCB from time to time) and shall be subjected to audit by MJNE, as set forth below. Company shall maintain sales and cost accounting records and supporting documentation for at least five years after the pertinent period, or such longer period as may be required by applicable law. Company shall maintain its records in readily-accessible electronic format using commercially-available software.

 

(ii) Company shall maintain at the Designated Acreage, with MJNE’s oversight and input, complete and accurate records related to the provision of Cultivation Services, including, without limitation, financial records, sales reports, sales invoices, maintenance of all required Agent Cards, human resources, and safety records.

(iii) Upon reasonable advance notice, and during normal business hours, MJNE or an agent designated by MJNE shall have access to such records and supporting documentation to the extent sufficient to audit such materials and to assess and verify gross revenue generated by the Designated Acreage, in accordance with this Agreement. MJNE shall have the right to review the sales records and supporting documentation records with respect to the Cultivation Services. Any such review shall be solely the expense of MJNE and shall not occur more frequently than quarterly; provided, however, that if MJNE determines a material disparity between the results of operation reported by Company and the results of MJNE’s audit, in MJNE’s sole but reasonable determination (it being agreed and understood that a disparity of five percent or greater will be considered material), then MJNE may review Company’s records more frequently (“Additional Audits”) and may require Company to bear the costs of the same. Additional Audits shall be terminated in the event that two sequential audits result in discrepancies less than 5 percent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Additional Audits may be trigger in the event that a material disparity exists as set forth herein. The access to records that is the subject of this subsection shall be in addition to MJNE’s rights set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement.

 

(k) Agent Cards. Each employee and independent contractor of Company intended to work at the Cultivation Facility must obtain a state-issued marijuana agent card (“Agent Card”) from the CCB prior to commencing work at the Cultivation Facility and must maintain an active Agent Card in good standing in order to work at the Cultivation Facility at all times. MJNE shall submit all initial applications and renewals, subject to the following: (i) Company must provide MJNE with all applicable information and material necessary to process each initial application, and must ensure that each employee and independent contractor cooperates with the application process; (ii) in the case of renewal filings, Company must provide (and ensure that the applicable employee or independent contract provides) all necessary information and material necessary for MJNE to submit the requisite online filing at least 30 business days before the filing is due; and (iii) Company shall pay all costs, fees, and expenses related to the Agent Card and application/renewal processes, in advance.

 

(l) Access. MJNE shall provide such access to the Designated Acreage to Company as MJNE deems reasonably necessary and appropriate to allow Company to provide the Cultivation Services. Company shall ensure that guests at the Designated Acreage shall be kept to a minimum. Company shall ensure that all its guests at the Designated Acreage are always escorted by an authorized and appropriate agent of Company. Under no circumstances shall Company personnel, including its management, employees, independent contractors, or guests, enter any portion of the Cultivation Facility other than the Designated Acreage without prior written approval of MJNE.

(m) Security. Company shall install and maintain at the Designated Acreage, at its sole expense, such fences, walls, doors, locks, security systems, camera systems, fire alarms and other security apparatus, including, without limitation, intrusion and motion detection, panic buttons, duress alarm and internal and external video surveillance as may be necessary to meet the requirements of Nevada laws, or as may be directed by the CCB or any other regulatory body with authority over the Cultivation Facility. Company shall submit its security plan to MJNE for its approval prior to installing any fences, walls, or doors, which approval may be denied or conditioned by MJNE, in its sole discretion. MJNE reserves the right to install fencing and other security measures at the Cultivation Facility (including on and around the Designated Acreage) and to charge Company a pro rata share of the cost thereof, which will be promptly paid by Company upon invoicing.

 

(n) Marketing. Company shall have the right to develop, direct, maintain, and expand the marketing, branding, and pricing strategies for all products produced by Company at the Cultivation Facility, or otherwise, subject to compliance with applicable rules, regulations, and requirements. The foregoing notwithstanding, MJNE shall have the right to approve in advance all packaging and product representation and claims.

 

4. Fees and Expenses. As further set forth in Section 5, below, MJNE shall collect revenue from the sale of the products produced by Company hereunder, which revenue shall be for MJNE’s account. As set forth below, Company shall earn a management fee (the “Cultivation Management Fee”) based on the total invoiced amount for the sale of such product (each sale, an “Order”), after the deduction of taxes paid in connection with such Order, as set forth below. If MJNE is owed any fees or expenses hereunder attributable to an Order and funds are not available from the proceeds of such Order (whether because of customer non-payment or otherwise), then MJNE shall invoice Company for such fees and expenses, which invoice will be paid in full by Company within 10 business days of the date of invoice. Alternatively, and in its sole discretion, MJNE may deduct such fees and expenses related to an Order from the Cultivation Management Fee otherwise payable from the proceeds of a prior or subsequent Order.

 

(a) Deposits. Upon execution of this Agreement, Company shall pay MJNE the sums identified as “Deposits” on Exhibit A. Each of these sums shall be non-refundable except in the event that this Agreement is not approved by the CCB or the Cultivation License shall not be approved for use at the Cultivation Facility.

 

(b) Security and Compliance Fee. Company shall pay MJNE the Security and Compliance Fee set forth on Exhibit A to compensate MJNE for certain security and regulatory compliance expenses incurred by MJNE. This fee shall be paid monthly by the first of each month throughout the Term commencing with the first of the month immediately following the date of the Commencement Notice and may be deducted from any deposits or other funds of Company (including funds otherwise payable as the Cultivation Management Fee, defined below, then in the possession of MJNE). Amounts unpaid by the 10th of the month shall be considered past due and shall incur a late fee of $500.00. The Security and Compliance Fee shall be increased by MJNE each year based on an increase in the regional cost of living but not less than 1.5% per year and not more than 10% in any five-year period.

 

8
 

 

(c) Royalty. Company shall pay MJNE a percentage of all invoiced Orders less applicable taxes (the “Product Royalty”). The Product Royalty rate is set forth on Exhibit A hereto and is subject to the minimum royalty set forth therein. Such payments are due and payable by Company upon sale of product regardless of whether the purchaser has paid all or any part of the purchase price. Company shall be entitled to a credit or credits for any authorized returns. In the event that Company and MJNE is unable to collect from a purchaser the total amount owed to MJNE and Company for an Order, Company is still obligated to pay the Product Royalty to MJNE for the total amount of the invoiced Order to purchaser.

 

(d) Cultivation Management Fee. Company shall earn a Cultivation Management Fee based on the Net Sales Revenue, at the rate set forth on Exhibit A. For purposes hereof, “Net Sales Revenue” means gross revenue actually realized from an Order less any returns or credits authorized by MJNE related to such Order and less Order Expenses (as defined in subsection (e)) related to such Order. As stated elsewhere in this Agreement, MJNE may retain the following prior to distributing the Cultivation Management Fee to Company to the extent that MJNE has not otherwise recouped such sums: (i) all Order Expenses related to a prior Order; (ii) the monthly royalty set forth in subsection (c), above, as well as any Product Royalty related to a prior Order; (iii) the security and compliance fee set forth in subsection (b), above related to a prior Order; (iv) any returns or credits authorized by MJNE related to such product; and any other fees, expenses, or other sums of money owed to, or invoiced by MJNE to Company. Further, to the extent that Company separately has paid MJNE for any Order Expenses, such sums will not be included in the determination of Net Sales Revenue (i.e., such sums will not be double counted). For the sake of clarity, MJNE may deduct from the Cultivation Management Fee paid to Company any or all sums owed to it from a prior Order or prior Orders, and any other fees and expenses owed to MJNE by Company.

 

(e) Order Expenses. Company shall pay MJNE for all direct expenses incurred in connection with the Cultivation Services without limitation, including those described in Section 6, as well as the cost of testing product; delivery of product; pick-up and processing of payments; and any other reasonable cost or fee and, as well any late fee, interest or other obligation due from Company to MJNE. Such expenses that are directly attributable to a specific Order, such as the cost of testing product; delivery of product; pick-up and processing of payments; and taxes payable to the State of Nevada related to a specific order, are the “Order Expenses;” provided, however, that if Company separately has paid Company for such taxes related to a specific order, they will not be included in the term Order Expenses as to that Order.

 

(f) Build Out Payment. Company shall pay MJNE for any and all reasonable expenses MJNE incurs in building out or assisting with the build out of the Designated Acreage as agreed to between the Parties.

 

(g) Disbursement. MJNE shall pay Company the Cultivation Management Fee pursuant to Section 4(g), on or before the 10th of each month, for the preceding month’s fee.

 

(h) Examples. By way of example only, and without any inference that the sums reflected below are or should be expected or reflect anticipated revenue or expenses,

( ) The following represents an example of a Product Royalty calculation and a Cultivation Management Fee calculation where (A) the Product Royalty rate is 10%; (B) the Cultivation Management Fee is 90% of Net Sales Revenue:

 

  1. Company sales 100 lbs of flower at Fair Market Value (“FMV”) at $2,100.00 per lbs;

 

  2. Billed amount of Order equals $210,000.00;

 

  3. MJNE collects $210,000.00;

 

  4. Taxes paid to state equal $36,400.00 (At current tax rate based of the FMV of $2,100/lb, NOTE that if the product was sold at $1,800/lb it would still be taxed at the FMV rate of $2,100/lb)

 

  5. Net after taxes equals $173,600.00;

 

  6. Product royalty of 10% paid to MJNE equals $17,360.00

 

  7. Security and Compliance Fee has not yet been paid and is deducted by MJNE from this Order equaling $10,000.00

 

  8. Other order expenses equal $6,250.00: testing ($6,000.00) (based on 20 test @ 5lb batches @ $300.00 per test), ($250.00) (transportation cost).

 

  0. Money owed to Company $139,990.00 paid on the 10th of the following month.

 

(ii) The following represents an example of the distribution of the Cultivation Management Fee shown in subsection (i), above, at such time as there are outstanding fees payable to MJNE:

 

Cultivation Management Fee:   $ 139,990.00  
Taxes paid to State for prior Order:   $ 22,000.00  
Order Expenses from prior Order:   $ 20,000.00  
Final Cultivation Management Fee:   $ 97,990.00 ($139,990-$22,000-$20,000)  

 

5. Sales; Collections; and Payments.

 

(a) Company shall sell product on behalf of MJNE. All sales shall be timely and properly recorded and data entered into the sales tracking system and MJNE will arrange for collection of sales proceeds via a third-party courier; notwithstanding, MJNE is not responsible for such collections in the event of non-payment or dispute. Company acknowledges that MJNE is required to remit taxes as promulgated by the State of Nevada on the sales of all product/cultivation goods and for any product sold, regardless of whether the proceeds of such sale have been remitted, cleared, or paid in full. As such, to the extent that MJNE has paid taxes related to the products that are the subject of this Agreement, Company is responsible to reimburse MJNE. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, MJNE shall have the right to invoice Company for the reimbursement of taxes attributable to one or more Orders, and Company shall remit such funds to MJNE immediately upon receipt of the invoice.

 

(b) In addition to any other expenses or fees set forth herein, MJNE may invoice Company for any direct out-of-pocket expenses incurred by MJNE in connection with Company operations plus a 15% administrative charge if these fees are not paid within 20 days. MJNE invoices to Company are due and payable within 14 calendar days of receipt by Company unless such invoice is for an amount in excess of $2,000; in each such case that invoice shall be due and payable within 20 calendar days and, if not then timely paid, may be paid to Company from any Company funds then in the possession of MJNE, including any Cultivation Management Fee that otherwise would be payable to Company.

(c) Company shall sell product only to a licensed marijuana dispensary, production facility, or cultivation facility, in accordance with the Cultivation License.

Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, Company shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses necessary to perform the Cultivation Services as contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, all materials, build out costs, electrical, utilities, fencing (which may be prepaid by MJNE and will be reimbursed by Company to MJNE), installation of water piping, trenching, grading, installation of concrete slabs, building construction, soil development, equipment, vehicles, mobile phones, computers, and labor, including, without limitation, all wages, benefits (if any), taxes, withholding, workers’ compensation insurance, payroll processing, uniforms, tools, training and education, and all other employee-related costs and anything else related to Company operations.

 

7. Confidential Information; Insider Trading.

 

(a) Definition. “Confidential Information” means nonpublic information that one Party (the “Disclosing Party”) designates as being confidential or which, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure, ought to be treated as confidential, including, but not limited to: all (i) financial, operational, and other information relating to the Disclosing Party; (ii) confidential information and trade secrets of the Disclosing Party; (iii) lists of customers or referral sources; (iv) business, financial, and other information received from a customer or any other third party that the Disclosing Party is obligated to treat as confidential; (v) financial statements and other financial information; (vi) any present or future business or strategic plans, services, trade secrets, designs, recipes, processes, procedures, or other business or technical information of the Disclosing Party; and (vii) any other information designated, either orally, in writing, or by any other means, as confidential. Confidential Information does not include information that: (x) is or becomes generally available to the public other than because of a disclosure by the Party receiving such information (the “Receiving Party”); (y) was in the Receiving Party’s possession prior to disclosure by Disclosing Party as shown by written records of the Receiving Party dated prior to the date of this Agreement.

 

(b) Confidentiality Obligations. The Receiving Party agrees: (i) to hold all Confidential Information in strict confidence and to take commercially reasonable precautions to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information (including, without limitation, all precautions the Receiving Party employs with respect to its own confidential or proprietary materials of any kind); (ii) not to divulge any Confidential Information or any information derived therefrom to any third person without the express prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, which may be granted or withheld at the Disclosing Party’s sole discretion, or unless compelled to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction or regulatory authority, and then only after providing the Disclosing Party, to the extent allowable under law or regulation, with an opportunity to enjoin the disclosure; and (iii) not to encourage or facilitate any third party to do any of the actions prohibited in the foregoing items.

(d) Enforcement. Each Receiving Party agrees that, in the event of any breach of this Agreement by it, such breach will cause irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party, and monetary damages will not be sufficient or may not be adequately quantified, and as such, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies as may be available to it, which remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive, and in addition to such other remedies as it may otherwise have at law or in equity.

 

(d) Insider Trading. Company acknowledges that the stock of MJNE is publicly traded and that MJNE is subject to federal and state securities laws, rules, and regulations, including those under the oversight of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Company and its representatives may become aware of material non-public information regarding MJNE in the performance of the Cultivation Services or otherwise in connection with its relationship with MJNE. Company acknowledges that engaging in any transaction in MJNE’s stock while in possession of material nonpublic information, as well as providing material nonpublic information to others who may engage in a transaction in MJNE’s stock while in possession of such information, may subject Company or MJNE or both (as well as their respective officers and directors) to civil and potentially criminal liability. Accordingly, Company and its officers and directors shall ensure that neither the Company, its officers, directors, and members of their respective immediate families, will engage in transactions in MJNE’s stock while in possession of material non-public information and, to the extent that any employees, independent contractors, or other parties associated with Company are or become in possession of material nonpublic information concerning MJNE, Company shall use commercially-reasonable efforts to ensure that they do not engage in such transactions.

15. Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, modified, or supplemented only by an agreement in writing signed by each Party. No waiver by either Part of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

 

16. Assignment. Neither Party may assign, transfer, or convey this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the express prior written consent of the other Party. Any attempted assignment of this Agreement by a Party without the prior written consent of the other Party shall be considered void. Any such assignment and written consent shall be attached to this Agreement and shall be incorporated herein. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

17. Regulatory Compliance; Severability. It is the intent of the Parties that this Agreement comply in all respects with all applicable state and local laws, regulations, rules and interpretive case decisions, and the Parties have structured their relationship with that specific intent. However, each Party understands that such laws, regulations, and case decisions are complicated and in a state of flux. Therefore, in the event that any provisions of this Agreement is rendered invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, or the applicable laws and regulations are altered by any legislative or regulatory body, or either party notifies the other party in writing of its reasonable belief that this Agreement or any of its provisions may be declared null, void, unenforceable, or in violation of applicable laws or regulations, the remaining provisions, if any, of this Agreement shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect. Furthermore, in such event the parties agree to negotiate in good faith an amendment to the Agreement to comply with law while remaining consistent with the parties’ original intent to the fullest extent allowable by law.

 

18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, interpreted, performed, and enforced solely in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without reference to principles of conflicts of law.

 

19. Neutral Interpretation. The Parties acknowledge and agree that they have both participated in the negotiation of this Agreement and its terms and have had the opportunity to have this Agreement reviewed by an attorney of their choosing. The Parties agree that no rules of construction or interpretation shall be applied to this Agreement that would favor one party over the other, and that the Agreement shall be interpreted neutrally. All headings and captions are provided for convenience of the reader only and shall not imply any interpretation of the following subject matter in and of themselves.

20. Dispute Resolution. The Parties agree to discuss in good faith any alleged 16 default or breach described in Section 13 (each generally constituting a failure to abide the terms of this Agreement) telephonically within 48 hours of such time as written notice of the alleged breach is received by the Party alleged to have committed such breach or default. If the alleged issue is not then resolved, then the Parties that authorized representatives of the respective Parties, with settlement authority, will meet in person within seven days to attempt in good faith to resolve the issue. If the issue persists, then the Parties shall resolve the dispute as set forth below. The foregoing shall not preclude any party seeking interim emergency injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Clark County, Nevada or from pursuing injunctive relief under Section 7 hereof. The Parties agree that the Party pursuing injunctive shall not be required to post a bond or shall be required to post the minimum bond required by applicable law, to the extent a bond is not waivable. Nothing contained in this Section 20 precludes MJNE from terminating the Agreement pursuant to Section 2(c).

 

(a) Mediation. Except if emergency injunctive relief is required, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (a “Dispute”) that cannot be settled through negotiation between the Parties shall be mediated by the Parties before a single mediator in Clark County, Nevada, or any other place agreed to by the Parties.

For purposes hereof, “Net Sales Revenue” means gross revenue actually realized from an Order less any returns or credits authorized by MJNE related to such Order and less Order Expenses (as defined in subsection (e)) related to such Order. As stated elsewhere in this Agreement, MJNE may retain the following prior to distributing the Cultivation Management Fee to Company to the extent that MJNE has not otherwise recouped such sums: (i) all Order Expenses related to a prior Order; (ii) the monthly royalty set forth in subsection (c), above, as well as any Product Royalty related to a prior Order; (iii) the security and compliance fee set forth in subsection (b), above related to a prior Order; (iv) any returns or credits authorized by MJNE related to such product; and any other fees, expenses, or other sums of money owed to, or invoiced by MJNE to Company. Further, to the extent that Company separately has paid MJNE for any Order Expenses, such sums will not be included in the determination of Net Sales Revenue (i.e., such sums will not be double counted). For the sake of clarity, MJNE may deduct from the Cultivation Management Fee paid to Company any or all sums owed to it from a prior Order or prior Orders, and any other fees and expenses owed to MJNE by Company.

 

(e) Order Expenses. Company shall pay MJNE for all direct expenses incurred in connection with the Cultivation Services without limitation, including those described in Section 6, as well as the cost of testing product; delivery of product; pick-up and processing of payments; and any other reasonable cost or fee and, as well any late fee, interest or other obligation due from Company to MJNE. Such expenses that are directly attributable to a specific Order, such as the cost of testing product; delivery of product; pick-up and processing of payments; and taxes payable to the State of Nevada related to a specific order, are the “Order Expenses;” provided, however, that if Company separately has paid Company for such taxes related to a specific order, they will not be included in the term Order Expenses as to that Order.

 

(f) Build Out Payment. Company shall pay MJNE for any and all reasonable expenses MJNE incurs in building out or assisting with the build out of the Designated Acreage as agreed to between the Parties. Such expenses shall not be billable unless previously approved by all parties in writing.

 

(g) Disbursement. MJNE shall pay Company the Cultivation Management Fee pursuant to Section 4(g), on or before the 10th of each month, for the preceding month’s fee.

(h) Examples. By way of example only, and without any inference that the sums reflected below are or should be expected or reflect anticipated revenue or expenses,

 

(i) The following represents an example of a Product Royalty calculation and a Cultivation Management Fee calculation where (A) the Product Royalty rate is 10%; (B) the Cultivation Management Fee is 90% of Net Sales Revenue:

 

  1. Company sales 100 lbs of flower at Fair Market Value (“FMV”) at $2,100.00 per lbs;
  2. Billed amount of Order equals $210,000.00;
  3. MJNE collects $210,000.00;
  4. Taxes paid to state equal $36,400.00 (At current tax rate based of the FMV of $2,100/lb, NOTE that if the product was sold at $1,800/lb it would still be taxed at the FMV rate of $2,100/lb)
  5. Net after taxes equals $173,600.00;
  6. Product royalty of 10% paid to MJNE equals $17,360.00
  7. Security and Compliance Fee has not yet been paid and is deducted by MJNE from this Order equaling $10,000.00
  8. Other order expenses equal $6,250.00: testing ($6,000.00) (based on 20 test @ 5lb batches @ $300.00 per test), ($250.00) (transportation cost).
  9. Money owed to Company $139,990.00 paid on the 10th of the following month.

 

(ii) The following represents an example of the distribution of the Cultivation Management Fee shown in subsection (i), above, at such time as there are outstanding fees payable to MJNE:

 

  Cultivation Management Fee: $139,990.00
  Taxes paid to State for prior Order: $22,000.00
  Order Expenses from prior Order: $20,000.00
  Final Cultivation Management Fee: $97,990.00 ($139,990-$22,000-$20,000)

 

5. Sales; Collections; and Payments.

 

(a) Company shall sell product on behalf of MJNE. All sales shall be timely and properly recorded and data entered into the sales tracking system and MJNE will arrange for collection of sales proceeds via a third-party courier; notwithstanding, MJNE is not responsible for such collections in the event of non-payment or dispute. Company acknowledges that MJNE is required to remit taxes as promulgated by the State of Nevada on the sales of all product/cultivation goods and for any product sold, regardless of whether the proceeds of such sale have been remitted, cleared, or paid in full. As such, to the extent that MJNE has paid taxes related to the products that are the subject of this Agreement, Company is responsible to reimburse MJNE. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, MJNE shall have the right to invoice Company for the reimbursement of taxes attributable to one or more Orders, and Company shall remit such funds to MJNE immediately upon receipt of the invoice.

 

10
 

 

(b) In addition to any other expenses or fees set forth herein, MJNE may invoice Company for any reasonable direct out-of-pocket expenses incurred by MJNE in connection with Company operations, plus a 15% administrative charge if these fees are not paid within 20 days. MJNE invoices to Company are due and payable within 14 calendar days of receipt by Company unless such invoice is for an amount in excess of $2,000; in each such case that invoice shall be due and payable within 20 calendar days and, if not then timely paid, may be paid to Company from any Company funds then in the possession of MJNE, including any Cultivation Management Fee that otherwise would be payable to Company.

 

(c) Company shall sell product only to a licensed marijuana dispensary, production facility, or cultivation facility, in accordance with the Cultivation License.

 

6. Company’s Operating and Related Expenses. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, Company shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses necessary to perform the Cultivation Services as contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, all materials, build out costs, electrical, utilities, fencing (which may be prepaid by MJNE and will be reimbursed by Company to MJNE), installation of water piping, trenching, grading, installation of concrete slabs, building construction, soil development, equipment, vehicles, mobile phones, computers, and labor, including, without limitation, all wages, benefits (if any), taxes, withholding, workers’ compensation insurance, payroll processing, uniforms, tools, training and education, and all other employee-related costs and anything else related to Company operations.

 

7. Confidential Information; Insider Trading.

 

(a) Definition. “Confidential Information” means nonpublic information that one Party (the “Disclosing Party”) designates as being confidential or which, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure, ought to be treated as confidential, including, but not limited to: all (i) financial, operational, and other information relating to the Disclosing Party; (ii) confidential information and trade secrets of the Disclosing Party; (iii) lists of customers or referral sources; (iv) business, financial, and other information received from a customer or any other third party that the Disclosing Party is obligated to treat as confidential; (v) financial statements and other financial information; (vi) any present or future business or strategic plans, services, trade secrets, designs, recipes, processes, procedures, or other business or technical information of the Disclosing Party; and (vii) any other information designated, either orally, in writing, or by any other means, as confidential. Confidential Information does not include information that: (x) is or becomes generally available to the public other than because of a disclosure by the Party receiving such information (the “Receiving Party”); (y) was in the Receiving Party’s possession prior to disclosure by Disclosing Party as shown by written records of the Receiving Party dated prior to the date of this Agreement.

 

11
 

 

(b) Confidentiality Obligations. The Receiving Party agrees: (i) to hold all Confidential Information in strict confidence and to take commercially reasonable precautions to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information (including, without limitation, all precautions the Receiving Party employs with respect to its own confidential or proprietary materials of any kind); (ii) not to divulge any Confidential Information or any information derived therefrom to any third person without the express prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, which may be granted or withheld at the Disclosing Party’s sole discretion, or unless compelled to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction or regulatory authority, and then only after providing the Disclosing Party, to the extent allowable under law or regulation, with an opportunity to enjoin the disclosure; and (iii) not to encourage or facilitate any third party to do any of the actions prohibited in the foregoing items.

 

(c) Return of Confidential Information. It is further understood that all Confidential Information provided by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party remains the sole property of Disclosing Party, and upon written request shall immediately be returned by the Receiving Party, together with all copies.

 

(d) Enforcement. Each Receiving Party agrees that, in the event of any breach of this Agreement by it, such breach will cause irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party, and monetary damages will not be sufficient or may not be adequately quantified, and as such, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies as may be available to it, which remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive, and in addition to such other remedies as it may otherwise have at law or in equity.

 

(d) Insider Trading. Company acknowledges that the stock of MJNE is publicly traded and that MJNE is subject to federal and state securities laws, rules, and regulations, including those under the oversight of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Company and its representatives may become aware of material non-public information regarding MJNE in the performance of the Cultivation Services or otherwise in connection with its relationship with MJNE. Company acknowledges that engaging in any transaction in MJNE’s stock while in possession of material nonpublic information, as well as providing material nonpublic information to others who may engage in a transaction in MJNE’s stock while in possession of such information, may subject Company or MJNE or both (as well as their respective officers and directors) to civil and potentially criminal liability. Accordingly, Company and its officers and directors shall ensure that neither the Company, its officers, directors, and members of their respective immediate families, will engage in transactions in MJNE’s stock while in possession of material non-public information and, to the extent that any employees, independent contractors, or other parties associated with Company are or become in possession of material nonpublic information concerning MJNE, Company shall use commercially-reasonable efforts to ensure that they do not engage in such transactions.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Affiliate” means any person or entity that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, a Party. Each Party (respectively an “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and save harmless the other Party and its agents, officers, directors, members, managers, directors, employees, and Affiliates (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all actions, claims, costs (including attorneys’ fees), fines, damages, judgments, and liabilities whatsoever, including without limitation any product liability claims, in law or equity, arising out of or caused by (a) any breach by the Indemnifying Party of this Agreement, (b) the Indemnifying Party’s operations at the Cultivation Facility or performance as contemplated under this Agreement, (c) obligations that either Indemnifying Party is alleged to have or have had with respect to Indemnifying Party’s employees to make payments, contributions or withholdings under any applicable federal, state or local laws pertaining to workers’ compensation, unemployment, social security or income or other taxes, (d) any and all claims against Indemnified Party of whatever nature arising from any act, omission or negligence of Indemnifying Party, its contractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees, invitees, or visitors, arising from any accident, injury, damage or any other reason, (e) any claims, suits, charges, proceedings or actions for workers’ compensation benefits or awards filed against Indemnified Party by or concerning Indemnifying Party’s employees, (f) any grossly negligent acts, omissions or deliberate, willful or intentional misconduct or malfeasance, of Indemnifying Party’s employees while performing services or other obligations contemplated under this Agreement; and (g) any damage to the Cultivation Facility caused by Indemnifying Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

10. Inspections and Audits. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Cultivation Facility may be subject to inspection by CCB and that CCB may perform audits of all activities licensed under Nevada law. As such, the Parties agree to fully cooperate in good faith with any such inspection or audits. MJNE shall have the right (but not the obligation) to inspect and direct corrections at the Cultivation Facility at any time without prior notice or consent; provided, however, that Company may not rely on the results of any such inspection as evidence that it is in compliance with applicable law.

Each of the Parties shall be responsible for its own taxes (including all personal property taxes) that are incurred as a result of that Party’s activities pursuant to this Agreement, and no Party shall be liable to any other Party for contribution or otherwise related to the payment of any taxes. Any taxes imposed shall be paid at the level they are imposed.

Apart from the license granted in this section, Company shall not use MJNE’s name or brand in any way without the prior written consent of Company. Any authority granted to Company hereby may be revoked by MJNE upon commercially reasonable notice being given.

15. Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, modified, or supplemented only by an agreement in writing signed by each Party. No waiver by either Part of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

 

16. Assignment. Neither Party may assign, transfer, or convey this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the express prior written consent of the other Party. Any attempted assignment of this Agreement by a Party without the prior written consent of the other Party shall be considered void. Any such assignment and written consent shall be attached to this Agreement and shall be incorporated herein. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

17. Regulatory Compliance; Severability. It is the intent of the Parties that this Agreement comply in all respects with all applicable state and local laws, regulations, rules and interpretive case decisions, and the Parties have structured their relationship with that specific intent. However, each Party understands that such laws, regulations, and case decisions are complicated and in a state of flux. Therefore, in the event that any provisions of this Agreement is rendered invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, or the applicable laws and regulations are altered by any legislative or regulatory body, or either party notifies the other party in writing of its reasonable belief that this Agreement or any of its provisions may be declared null, void, unenforceable, or in violation of applicable laws or regulations, the remaining provisions, if any, of this Agreement shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect. Furthermore, in such event the parties agree to negotiate in good faith an amendment to the Agreement to comply with law while remaining consistent with the parties’ original intent to the fullest extent allowable by law.

 

18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, interpreted, performed, and enforced solely in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without reference to principles of conflicts of law.

 

16
 

 

19. Neutral Interpretation. The Parties acknowledge and agree that they have both participated in the negotiation of this Agreement and its terms and have had the opportunity to have this Agreement reviewed by an attorney of their choosing. The Parties agree that no rules of construction or interpretation shall be applied to this Agreement that would favor one party over the other, and that the Agreement shall be interpreted neutrally. All headings and captions are provided for convenience of the reader only and shall not imply any interpretation of the following subject matter in and of themselves.

 

20. Dispute Resolution. The Parties agree to discuss in good faith any alleged default or breach described in Section 13 (each generally constituting a failure to abide the terms of this Agreement) telephonically within 48 hours of such time as written notice of the alleged breach is received by the Party alleged to have committed such breach or default. If the alleged issue is not then resolved, then the Parties that authorized representatives of the respective Parties, with settlement authority, will meet in person within seven days to attempt in good faith to resolve the issue. If the issue persists, then the Parties shall resolve the dispute as set forth below. The foregoing shall not preclude any party seeking interim emergency injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Clark County, Nevada or from pursuing injunctive relief under Section 7 hereof. The Parties agree that the Party pursuing injunctive shall not be required to post a bond or shall be required to post the minimum bond required by applicable law, to the extent a bond is not waivable. Nothing contained in this Section 20 precludes MJNE from terminating the Agreement pursuant to Section 2(c).

 

(a) Mediation. Except if emergency injunctive relief is required, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (a “Dispute”) that cannot be settled through negotiation between the Parties shall be mediated by the Parties before a single mediator in Clark County, Nevada, or any other place agreed to by the Parties. Either Party to this Agreement may invoke the right to mediation set forth in this Section 20 (a) by sending written notice to the other Party of such invocation and setting forth in adequate detail the nature of the matter to be mediated. The Parties to the mediation jointly shall appoint the mediator within 15 calendar days of receipt of the written notice. The mediation proceedings shall commence and be diligently pursued by the Parties to this Agreement within 15 calendar days of the appointment of the mediator. Each Party to the mediation shall bear its own cost and expenses incurred with respect to the mediation. The cost of the mediator and the mediation procedure shall be borne equally by the Parties.

 

(b) Arbitration. Any Dispute that has not been settled or resolved by negotiation or through mediation to the satisfaction of the Parties within 90 days of the notice of the invocation of mediation pursuant to Section 20(a) above (or such other date as the Parties may agree) shall be resolved through binding arbitration. Either Party shall have the right to submit the Dispute to arbitration set forth in this Section 20(b) by sending written notice to the other Party. The Parties shall name a single arbitrator within 20 calendar days after such written notice. If the Parties fail to select an arbitrator, then each Party shall designate a third-party attorney duly licensed and in good standing in the State of Nevada, which two designees shall together designate a third person, duly licensed as an attorney in the State of Nevada, which person (if he or she accepts such appointment) shall be the arbitrator. If those designees cannot agree on an arbitrator, then the arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with then existing rules and processes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitrator shall render a decision within 60 calendar days after his or her appointment and shall conduct all proceedings pursuant to the then existing rules of AAA governing commercial transactions, to the extent such rules are not inconsistent with Nevada law and this Agreement. The cost of the arbitration procedure shall be borne by the non-prevailing Party or, if the decision is not clearly in favor of one Party or the other, then such costs shall be borne as determined by the arbitrator. The arbitration procedure provided for in this Agreement shall be binding arbitration and shall be the sole and exclusive dispute resolution mechanism for any applicable Dispute, except to the extent that judicial enforcement proceedings are necessary to give effect to the resulting arbitral award.

21. Limitations on Damages. MJNE shall not be liable to Company for any action or inaction, whether intentional or not, made by any other third party, including but not limited to, other parties that are conducting cultivation activities at the Cultivation Facility, which affects Company’s ability to operate, grow or conduct sales pursuant to this Agreement. MJNE is only responsible to Company for any willful or negligent action on the part of MJNE or its direct employees. Company reserves the right to pursue claims against any third-party vendor or MJNE affiliate.

 

Company acknowledges and understands that there may be additional cannabis operators conducting grow operations at the Cultivation Facility. As such, there is risk that an additional operator may jeopardize MJNE’s license to operate, thereby impacting Company’s ability to operate. If another operator jeopardizes the license, or causes the license to be revoked or suspended, thereby negatively impacting Company’s ability to conduct operations pursuant to this Agreement, Company agrees that MJNE shall have no liability to Company for the same. Company enters into this Agreement with full knowledge of the foregoing and does so with the understanding and willingness to accept the risk as stated herein.

 

22. Venue. Any arbitration or other action to enforce or interpret this Agreement shall exclusively be in Clark County, Nevada.

 

23. Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

24. Federal Government Action. The Parties acknowledge that they are aware of and fully understand that despite the State of Nevada’s marijuana laws and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Nevada-licensed marijuana cultivators, transporters, distributors, or possessors may still be arrested by federal officers and prosecuted under federal law. In the event of federal arrest, seizure, or prosecution associated with the activities described in this Agreement, the Parties agree to hold each other harmless and agree to be individually responsible for any attorneys’ fees associated with defending such actions. The Parties also agree to waive illegality as a defense to any contract enforcement action related to this Agreement.

 

25. Relationship of the Parties. This Agreement does not create any partnership or joint venture between the Parties. Company shall be an independent contractor pursuant to this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither Party shall have any express or implied right or authority to assume or create any obligations on behalf of or in the name of the other Party or to bind the other Party to any contract, agreement, or undertaking with any third party.

 

26. Further Assurances. Each Party will execute and deliver such further instruments and take such further action as may be required to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement.

 

27. Entire Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other negotiations, agreements, representations, and covenants, oral or written. All the Recitals and Exhibits hereto are hereby incorporated within the Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other Agreement between the parties, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control, unless specifically varied by a subsequent Agreement. This Agreement may be amended or otherwise modified only by a written documents signed by each of the Parties hereto.

 

28. Execution. The Parties may execute this Agreement in counterparts, all of which, when considered together, shall constitute one agreement. This Agreement may be executed by DocuSign or any other e-signature method authorized by MJNE.

ADDENDUM 1 TO CULTIVATION AND SALES AGREEMENT

 

This Addendum 1 to the Cultivation and Sales Agreement entered into this ____ day of June, 2021, by and between MJ Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (“MJNE”) and RK Grow, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Company”) (jointly, the “Parties” and, individually, a “Party”). To the extent any provisions of this Addendum contradict any provisions of the Cultivation and Sales Agreement, the provisions of this Addendum shall control:

 

1. Company has represented to MJNE that it is unable to obtain product liability insurance and general liability insurance coverage pursuant to the Cultivation and Sales Agreement (“Agreement”). MJNE hereby waives the Company’s requirement to obtain the aforementioned insurance coverages pursuant to section 3(d) of the Agreement. However, Company is required to obtain all other insurance coverages as set forth therein so long as reasonably possible. To wit, MJNE agrees to use its best efforts to assist Company in obtaining any governmental permits or licenses and third party consents necessary to obtain all insurances set forth in section 3(d). Company shall reimburse MJNE to the extent MJNE directly incurs out-of-pocket costs as a result of MJNE assisting Company.

 

2. In the event that Company or MJNE determines that product liability insurance and/or general liability insurance is available, Company shall obtain said insurance within 30 days of receiving notice from MJNE of the same. Alternatively, if MJNE can obtain product liability insurance and general liability insurance on its own for the Cultivation Facility, MJNE may charge the Company, pro rata, its share of the costs of the same. The above terms shall also apply to the Company’s requirement to obtain Business Interruption Insurance (where applicable) should the Company be unable to obtain such insurance.

 

3. MJNE agrees to provide access to water for the Designated Acreage without charge to the Company. However, Company understands it will be responsible for any construction required to have the water actually delivered to its Designated Acreage from the source. Company’s deposit as it relates to prepayment shall be on the following schedule: $500,000.00 shall be due within 30 days of the execution of the Agreement. One million dollars will be due when: (a) MJNE provides Company with a proposal to obtain electrical power from a utility or other electrical provider for the Designated Acreage; and (b) Company approves and executes such proposal. Company agrees that it will not unreasonably reject any tendered proposal specified herein. The Company shall pay the additional $1,500,000.00 portion of the Deposit on or before October 1, 2022. Company’s monthly security and compliance fee shall be suspended unless and until such time as Company receives 160,000 Amps of electrical power on the Designated Acreage.

 

4. Company holds all rights as it relates to the terms sale for MJNE’s product which are produced by Company subject to the terms of set forth in paragraph 5 of the Agreement.

 

5. For purposes of clarifying section 4(e) of the Agreement, Company reserves the right to select testing facilities so long as such facility is selected from a list pre-approved by MJNE. MJNE agrees that such list will hold a reasonable number of qualified facilities to ensure competitive pricing for testing.

6. Minimum Monthly Product Royalty: Minimum Monthly Product Royalty (MMPR) shall be calculated on a per annum basis. Therefore, Company will have satisfied all MMPR obligations for the year upon remitting $1,080,000.00 to MJNE.

 

  a. The Following represents an example of how MMPR may be satisfied assuming the a year begins the first day of January:
         
      i. January: No Sale. Company remits $90,000.00 MMPR,
         
      ii. February, Company makes sales resulting in $800,000 paid to MJNE in royalties.
         
      iii. March, No Sale. Company remits $90,000.00 MMPR.
         
      iv. April, Company makes sales resulting in $100,000.00 royalties paid to MJNE.
         
      v. May through December, MMPR is satisfied for the remainder of the year based upon earlier sales.

 

7. Company reserves the right to terminate this agreement within 24 months of execution upon providing MJNE with 30 day notice. Upon termination MJNE agrees to refund Company the pro rata share of Company’s prepaid deposit. The pro rata share shall be calculated on a monthly basis as set forth in example 6(a). However, if such termination is provided without Company having initiated infrastructure improvements (such as concrete buildup), Company’s “pro rata share” shall be defined as $500,000.00 without regard to the timing of Company’s notice.

 

  a. The following represents an example of the “Pro Rata” share calculated with Company exercising the exit clause at 8.5 months with infrastructure improvements using a three million dollar prepaid royalty deposit over fifteen years:
         
      i. 3,000,000.00 divided by 15 years = $200,000.00 per year or $16,666.66 per month.

 

$16,666.66 x 8.5 = $141,666.61

 

MJNE refunds Company $2,858,333.39

 

  b. Company shall have met the requirements for Infrastructure Improvements when Company approves and executes an agreement and remits its deposit to a licensed and bonded contractor to pour 15 acres of concrete on the Site.
