(b) The Rustic Inn, Jupiter, Florida

On October 13, 2016, Ark Jupiter RI, LLC (Ark Jupiter), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ROFR
Purchase and Sale Agreement (the ROFR) with SCFRC-HWG, LLC, the
landlord (the Seller) to purchase the land and building in which
the Company operates its Rustic Inn location in Jupiter, Florida.
The Seller had entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with a
third party to sell the premises; however, Ark Jupiters lease
provided the Company with a right of first refusal to purchase
the property. Ark Jupiter exercised the ROFR on October 4, 2016
and made a ten (10%) percent deposit on the purchase price of
approximately Five Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
($5,200,000.00). The closing is scheduled to occur on or before

after the closing of the ROFR. The Company and 1065 A1A, LLC have
entered into a temporary lease and sub-lease arrangement
