Purchase and Sale Agreement with B2K Smithtown LLC
On July 30, 2025, GSD Flowerfield LLC, a New York limited liability company (“GSD”) wholly-owned by the Company, entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “B2K Agreement”) for the sale of an approximately 49 acre parcel of vacant land to B2K Smithtown LLC (“B2K”), an affiliate of B2K Development LLC, which property forms a portion of the Company’s Flowerfield complex in St. James, New York, for a purchase price of between $24,000,000 and $28,740,000, subject to conditions and contingencies set forth in the Agreement and described herein. The purchase price range is contingent on the number of market-rate units for which B2K ultimately receives approval. Based on the terms of the contract and the Findings Statement, we estimate (contingent on a pending site plan submission, which we believe will be approved by the Town of Smithtown Planning Department) the value of the B2K contract is $28,740,000.
The B2K Agreement was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 4, 2025.
Among other provisions, the Agreement provides for: (i) an earnest money deposit of $250,000 to be delivered to the escrow agent, subject to a 90-day investigation period, during which time B2K will have the right to terminate the Agreement by written notice to GSD if B2K will not be fully satisfied, in B2K’s sole discretion, as to the status of title, suitability of the Premises and all factors concerning same, prior to the expiration of the investigation period, in which case B2K will have the right to receive a refund of its earnest money deposit; and (ii) unless B2K terminates the Agreement on or prior to the end of the investigation period (the “Investigation Period Notice Date”), the closing to occur on the earlier of: (A) that certain date that is no later than eight (8) months after the Town of Smithtown grants of the Site Plan Approval (as defined in the Agreement), or (B) sixty (60) days after B2K waives the Site Plan Approval. Such closing date is estimated to be no later than December 2027 or alternatively by August 2028 if B2K exercises both of its site plan extension options. Based on the above, the Company is extending its estimated timeline to complete the liquidation to December 31, 2027.
The Agreement is contingent on the receipt of Subdivision Approval (as defined in the Agreement) and B2K obtaining, at B2K’s sole cost and expense, certain other required approvals (the “Approvals”) beyond all relevant appeal periods within 18 months following the later of: (i) a designated number of days following the Investigation Period Notice Date or (ii) a designated number of days following the issuance of Subdivision Approval (the “Approval Period”).
If B2K fails to obtain the Approvals prior to the expiration of the Approval Period (subject to certain extension rights), B2K may terminate the Agreement or waive the foregoing approval contingencies and close title within 60 days.
The Agreement also contains additional customary covenants, conditions, representations and warranties.
The foregoing description of the Agreement is only a summary of its material terms, does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K on August 4, 2025. |
