Gold Flora Corporation Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(In USD, in thousands, except for share and per share data)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Gold Flora Corporation, the “Company”, "Gold Flora", and “GFC”, refer to Gold Flora Corporation, a holding company domesticated in the State of Delaware by way of corporate continuance from British Columbia, Canada on July 7, 2023. The Company’s registered office is located at 3165 Red Hill Avenue, Costa Mesa, CA 92626.

Gold Flora, LLC is a California limited liability company that was formed on November 15, 2016 and is a vertically integrated single-state operator that, through various subsidiaries, has cultivation, manufacturing, distribution and retail operations in California. While the nature of its operations is legalized and approved by the State of California, it is considered to be an illegal activity under the Controlled Substances Act of the United States of America (the “CSA”). Accordingly, certain additional risks and uncertainties are present as discussed in the following notes.

On July 7, 2023, the Company consummated a business combination involving TPCO Holding Corp., a publicly traded entity ("TPCO"), Gold Flora, LLC, Stately Capital Corporation, a newly formed British Columbia corporation and Golden Grizzly Bear LLC, which transaction resulted in the combination of TPCO and Gold Flora, LLC, in an all-stock transaction (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, the Company was deemed to be the accounting acquirer and TPCO was the legal acquirer, and for the purpose of facilitating the merger, a new entity, Gold Flora Corporation was formed. Pursuant to the merger, TPCO, Stately Capital Corporation and GFC amalgamated. The surviving amalgamated company was named Gold Flora Corporation and re-domiciled to Delaware, United States and serves as the parent entity for the Gold Flora group of companies.

The Company is a single state operator ("SSO") in California and operates as a vertically integrated, licensed, group of cannabis companies. The Company's long-term strategy is to continue to be one of the leading cannabis companies in California. The strategy is to build on the Company's strong integrated market position to pursue profitable organic and selective strategic opportunities with a focus on sustainable cash flow.

The Company reports its financial accounts and operations in three segments: retail, wholesale, and management. The retail segment consists of the sixteen operating dispensaries in California. The wholesale segment consists of our bulk flower cultivation operations and cannabis products manufacturing which are both sold to third parties. The Company's management segment represents its corporate office and central costs supporting both the retail and wholesale segments.

Certain prior year amounts for short-term and long-term tax payable have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported total assets, total liabilities, or results of operations.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation and Statement of Compliance

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and reflect the accounts and operations of the Company and those of the Company’s subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. Investments in entities in which the Company has significant influence, but less than a controlling financial interest, are accounted for using the equity method.

All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim condensed consolidated financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the interim condensed consolidated results of operations for three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 have been included.

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”), as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and with the relevant Canadian securities regulatory authorities under its profile on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval Plus (“SEDAR+”). Except as noted below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Basis of Measurement

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value as described herein.

Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(In USD, in thousands, except for share and per share data)

Going Concern

Historically, the Company’s primary source of liquidity has been its operations, capital contributions made by members and debt financing. However, the Company has sustained annual losses since inception and may require additional capital in the future. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had a total shareholders’ deficit of $63,424 and $7,248 and for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 a net loss attributable to the Company of $18,831 and $22,941, and net cash used in operating activities of $5,786 and $24,821, respectively. Because of these factors, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As of September 30, 2024 and 2023, the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from uncertainty related to substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As described in Note 1, the Company consummated a reverse merger with TPCO on July 7, 2023, forming GFC. The Company plans to reduce operating expenses through various strategic initiatives and aggressive cost-cutting measures which the Company believes will allow it to operate for at least the next twelve months. In addition, the Company plans to raise additional financing if needed to help fund operations. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving its objectives. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from uncertainty related to substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “Emerging Growth Company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it has taken advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are not applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a Company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized by the Company in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Through application of the standard, the Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

In order to recognize revenue under ASU 2014-09, the Company applies the following five (5) steps:

  • a. Identify a customer along with a corresponding contract;

  • b. Identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract to transfer goods or provide distinct services to a customer;

  • c. Determine the transaction price the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer;

  • d. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and

  • e. Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s).

Revenues consist of wholesale and retail operations of cannabis, which are generally recognized at a point in time when control over the goods have been transferred to the customer and is recorded net of sales discounts. Payment is typically due upon transferring the goods to the customer or within a specified time period permitted under the Company’s credit policy.

(In USD, in thousands, except for share and per share data)

Revenue is recognized upon the satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and transfers control upon delivery and acceptance by the customer. Revenues, net, are disaggregated for the period ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 as follows:

The Company has a customer loyalty program whereby customers are awarded points with in store and online delivery purchases. Once a customer achieves a certain point level, points can be used to pay for the purchase of product, up to a maximum number of points per transaction. Points expire after six months of no activity in a customer’s account.

Unredeemed awards are recorded as deferred revenue. At the time customers redeem points, the redemption is recorded as an increase to revenue. Deferred revenue is included in other accrued expenses within accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

The Company’s return policy conforms to the Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (“MAUCRSA”), which was signed into law in September 2017 and creates the general framework for the regulation of commercial medicinal and adult-use cannabis in California. The Company determined that no provision for returns or refunds was necessary at September 30, 2024 and 2023.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share (“Basic EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net earnings available to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per shares is calculated using the treasury method of calculating the weighted average number of shares outstanding. The treasury method assumes that outstanding options with an average exercise price below the market price of the underlying units are exercised, and the assumed proceeds are used to repurchase shares of the Company at the average price of the shares for the period. After adjustments as defined in ASC 260, if the Company is in a net loss position, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share when the issuance of shares on the exercise of convertible debentures, warrants, and share options are anti-dilutive.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Segment Reporting

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which expands reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is evaluating the impact on the consolidated financial statements and expects to adopt this guidance for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

Income Taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which enhances income tax disclosures, primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and disaggregation of income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact on the consolidated financial statements and expects to implement the provisions of ASU 2023-09 for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

8. LEASES

Operating Leases

The Company leases certain business facilities from related parties and third parties under non-cancellable operating lease agreements that specify minimum rentals. The operating leases require monthly payments ranging from $2 to $78 and expire through August 2038. Certain lease monthly payments may escalate up to 5.0% each year. In such cases, the variability in lease payments is included within the current and non-current operating lease liabilities.

All real estate leases are recorded on the balance sheet. Equipment and other non-real estate leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease agreements for some locations provide for rent escalations and renewal options. Certain real estate leases require payment for taxes, insurance and maintenance which are considered non-lease components. The Company accounts for real estate leases and the related fixed non-lease components together as a single component.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company must consider whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. Certain arrangements require significant judgment to determine if an asset is specified in the contract and if the Company directs how and for what purpose the asset is used during the term of the contract.

Finance Leases

The Company has certain finance leases from third parties and related parties as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for property in Desert Hot Springs, CA, Long Beach, CA, Commerce, CA, Corona, CA, and certain vehicle finance leases, with up to 30 years terms.

2The Company was in active litigation with Shelf Life Inc. (“SLI”). There has been an interim judgement granted against Gold Flora for the $5.2 million balance owed on the applicable note. The arbitration was resolved on August 23, 2024 for a final judgment of $6.1 million. For additional information, refer to 14. Commitments and Contingencies – Claims and Litigation .

During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, Gold Flora entered into a Loan Agreement with J.J. Astor & Co. (the "Investor"), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investor, in exchange for the payment by the Investor of $6.9 million, a senior secured promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of $9.3 million (the “Initial Note”). The Loan Agreement also provides for the future issuance of up to three additional notes (the “Additional Notes”) and together with the Initial Note, subject to certain conditions and on substantially the same terms as the initial closing. Each subsequent closing would result in the issuance of an Additional Note with an original principal amount of $2.8 million and a funded amount of $1.9 million.

The Initial Note is secured by a pledge of the Company’s stock and other equity interests in certain of its subsidiaries pursuant to a pledge agreement between the Company and the Investor, which will constitute a lien and security interest if the Investor accelerates the amount due under the Initial Note or any Additional Note during an event of default. The Initial Note may be prepaid, and the principal amount will be reduced to approximately $8.33 million if prepaid within 30 days of issuance, to approximately $8.55 million if prepaid between 30 and 60 days after issuance, and to approximately $8.84 million if prepaid between 60 and 90 days after issuance.

The Initial Note imposes certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon the Company, as well as covenants that (i) restrict the Company and its subsidiaries from incurring any additional indebtedness or suffering any liens, subject to specified exceptions, (ii) restrict the issuance or repurchase of shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to specified exceptions, and (iii) restrict the declaration of any dividends or other distributions, subject to specified exceptions. If an event of default under the Initial Note or any Additional Note occurs, the principal amount will be multiplied by 110% and interest will begin accruing at a default rate of 10% per annum from the date of a default. Upon an event of default and following any applicable cure periods, the Investor may elect to accelerate the Initial Note or any Additional Note and thereafter convert all or a portion of the outstanding notes into shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion price for any such conversion will be equal to 90% of the average of the four lowest volume weighted average closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the Cboe Canada exchange during the 20 trading days prior to the conversion, subject to adjustment in the event of any issuance of securities at a lower purchase, exercise or conversion price, and subject to applicable limitations of the Cboe Canada exchange.

Higher Level of Care and Airfield Financing

On July 6, 2023, prior to the Business Combination, the Company entered into a debt modification with certain convertible debt holders above, representing approximately $22,515 in convertible debt. As consideration for the debt modification and voting support agreement, the Company issued 2,500,000 Class C member units to these convertible debt holders which were ultimately converted to common shares of the Company upon the merger. Management determined the debt modification was considered an extinguishment of debt and recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of approximately $1,440. The modified unsecured convertible debt bears interest at 8 percent per annum, matures on December 31, 2025 and is convertible at the option of the debt holders at $0.7549 per share of common stock. The mandatory conversion feature, that was previously contained in the agreements, was removed and replaced with an optional conversion feature, at the Company's discretion, in the event the Company’s common stock exceeds a 20-day volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of $1.0175 per share of common stock. In the event the 20-day VWAP is met, the Company may elect to require that the holders of the convertible debt convert at a price of $0.7549 per share of common stock.

11. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Authorized Shares

Prior to the merger, each member’s interest in the Gold Flora LLC, including the member’s interest in income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses of Gold Flora LLC, was represented by units (“LLC Units”), which are further divided by Class from A through F. Upon a liquidation event, LLC Units were generally entitled to their pro-rata portion of net assets based on total equity instruments then outstanding to reduce the holders invested capital to zero and any remaining was shared pro rata share among the member LLC units holders. Gold Flora LLC was authorized to issue unlimited LLC Units.

There was an 8% simple non-compounded return to the holders of Class B Units. Gold Flora LLC had determined it was obligated to pay such amount, and accordingly accrued the return on the basis of outstanding investment amount quarterly.

The Company has total authorized shares of common stock of 450,000,000.

Issued and Outstanding

There were 287,644,766 and 287,478,982 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company established the Gold Flora Corporation 2023 Equity Incentive Plan ("Gold Flora EIP") for certain qualified officers, employees, consultants and non-employee directors. The Gold Flora EIP establishes award units in various forms as allowed under the plan and is administered by the board of directors of the Company. Total shares reserved under the Gold Flora EIP available for grant and issuance will not exceed 15 percent of the Company's total issued and outstanding shares from time to time or as may be approved in accordance with the Cboe Canada exchange policies. The below is information pertaining to legacy and new awards outstanding.

Share based compensation expense consists of options for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and profit interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Share based compensation was $366 and $567 during the period ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company calculated its provision by applying the discrete method due to the inability to rely on forecasts. The Company believes the discrete method to calculate the interim tax provision is more appropriate. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, income tax expense increased as compared to the same periods in the prior year resulting from the Business Combination that occurred on July 7, 2023.

Due to its cannabis operations, the Company is subject to the limitations of Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 280E. Under IRC Section 280E, the Company is only allowed to deduct expenses directly related to sales of its cannabis products. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-deductible under IRC Section 280E for the Company's expenses related to its plant-touching cannabis operations.

The effective tax rate for the period ended September 30, 2024, varies from the period ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to addition of penalties and interest and the change in nondeductible expenses under IRC Section 280E as a proportion of pre-tax loss during the period and true up to the beginning net deferred tax liability. The Company incurs expenses that are not deductible due to IRC Section 280E limitations which results in significant permanent book-to-tax differences that may not necessarily correlate with pretax income or loss.

The Company files income tax returns in the US and various state jurisdictions and is subject to examination of its income tax returns by tax authorities in these jurisdictions who may challenge any representations made on these returns. The statute of limitations for these jurisdictions may remain open for as far back as tax year 2019 to the present.

The Company recognizes the financial statement impact of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more-likely-than-not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest impact that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company’s federal and state income tax returns are subject to examination by income taxing authorities, generally for three years after the returns are filed.

The Company operates in a number of domestic tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination of its income tax returns by tax authorities in these jurisdictions who may challenge any item of those returns. Because tax matters that may be challenged by tax authorities are typically complex, the ultimate outcome of these challenges is uncertain. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions by recognizing the financial statement effects of a tax position only when, based upon technical merits, it is more-likely-thannot that the position will be sustained upon examination.

The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis and adjusts the level of the liability to reflect any subsequent changes in the relevant facts surrounding the uncertain positions. The measurement of the uncertain tax position is based on the largest benefit amount to be realized upon settlement of the matter. If payment ultimately proves to be unnecessary, the reversal of the liabilities would result in tax benefits being recognized in the period when the Company determines the liabilities are no longer necessary. If the Company’s estimate of tax liabilities proves to be less than the ultimate assessment, a further charge to income tax expense may result.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company recorded an uncertain tax liability for uncertain tax positions primarily related to the treatment of certain transactions and deductions under IRC Section 280E based on legal interpretations that challenge the Company’s tax liability under IRC Section 280E. During Q3 of 2024, the Company filed amended tax returns for periods ending 2020 through 2022 to reflect this position. In Q4 of 2024, the Company filed its 2023 tax returns to reflect this position.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Periodically, the Company reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses the potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable, and the amount can be reliably estimated, such amounts are recognized in other liabilities.

Contingent liabilities are measured at management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period and are discounted to present value when the effect is material. The Company performs evaluations to identify onerous contracts and, where applicable, records contingent liabilities for such contracts.

Contingent consideration is measured upon acquisition and is estimated using probability weighting of potential payouts. Subsequent changes in the estimated contingent consideration from the final purchase price allocation are recognized in the Company’s interim condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Contingencies

The Company’s operations are subject to a variety of local and state regulations. Failure to comply with one or more of those regulations could result in fines, restrictions on its operations, or losses of permits that could result in the Company ceasing operations in that specific state or local jurisdiction. While management of the Company believes that the Company is in compliance with applicable local and state regulations at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cannabis regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, the Company may be subject to regulatory fines, penalties, or restrictions in the future.

The Company has a loyalty program whereby customers accumulate points through purchases, and the earned points can be used to reduce the price of future purchases. The points do not expire and are recorded as a component of accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the accompanying interim condensed consolidated balance sheets for amounts customers have earned but have not yet used.

In connection with the Business Combination in July 2023, certain TPCO shareholders dissented from the vote and were therefore entitled to the fair value of their common shares of TPCO ("TPCO Shares"). The fair value amount paid by the Company was calculated based on the closing share price of the TPCO Shares of $0.17696 on June 14, 2023 (being the last trading date prior to the date of the meeting of the shareholders of TPCO to approve the Business Combination. The amount was recorded as a component of accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated balance sheet. Certain of the dissenting TPCO shareholders have asserted that the fair value of their TPCO Shares was higher than the trading price of June 14, 2023 and should have been determined to be at least US$0.9847 per TPCO Share. On September 8, 2023, those certain former TPCO shareholders filed a petition in the Supreme Court of British Columbia to be paid their asserted value per TPCO Share. However, the ultimate amount required to be paid by Gold Flora is subject to determination by the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The determination hearing is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2024, with a final judgement expected to be issued in due course thereafter.

Claims and Litigation

From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business.

On or about August 30, 2020, Gold Flora parties filed an action against SLI in Orange County Superior Court in California, which actions was later submitted to binding arbitration pursuant to stipulation by the parties. In the action, Gold Flora disputed the amount of closing consideration owed to SLI following the acquisition of certain of its assets based on omission of relevant information, and SLI brought a cross-claim against Gold Flora seeking full payment of the $5.2 million note balance owed. The arbitrator in the matter issued an interim judgement awarding SLI $5.2 million, in addition to certain potential costs and interest. The arbitration was resolved on August 23, 2024 for a final judgment is for $6.1 million. The incremental amount was since added to the Shelf-Life note as disclosed in the notes payable footnote.

On or about October 28, 2022, Jeff and Shanna Droege filed a Notice of Arbitration alleging breach of contract and other business torts against Left Coast Ventures ("LCV") and three former LCV directors in front of JAMS Resolution Center in San Francisco. Subsequently, the claims against the indemnified LCV directors were moved to a separate action filed in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara, which claims against two of the directors have now been dismissed with prejudice. Monetary relief is sought in each outstanding action. The arbitration decision is expected in the fourth quarter of 2024.

On or about March 30, 2021, former directors and shareholders of LCV filed a complaint in Delaware Chancery Court against multiple defendant parties, including three former directors of LCV, alleging breach of duties to the company and shareholders and other business torts and requesting monetary damages. Subsequently, plaintiffs filed a first amended complaint, adding new parties, including TPCO and a former TPCO director. LCV and the Company have certain indemnification obligations in connection with the defendant directors, which indemnification may be contested by LCV upon resolution of the action. The Company and LCV are subject to advancement actions brought with fees owed or claimed to be owed to counsel for the indemnified defendants.

19. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Receivership

On October 4, 2024, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court”) granted an order advancing a motion for sanctions brought by former directors of LCV and TPCO (the “Order”) in Michael Auerbach v. Gold Flora Corporation (C.A. No. 2024-0225-MTZ) and D aniel Fireman, Christopher Akelman, Octavio Boccalandra v. Left Coast Ventures, Inc. (C.A. No. 2023-0588-MTZ). The Order held the Company and LCV in contempt for violation of advancement orders with respect to indemnification obligations for fees owed to counsel and related expenses, which amount is currently estimated at approximately $1.65 million.

Pursuant to the Order, the Court appointed Molly DiBianca of Clark Hill PLC (the “Limited Receiver”) as a limited purpose receiver to take such action that the Limited Receiver determines in good faith is appropriate to cause the Company and LCV to satisfy the amounts due under the Order, including accessing financial records and negotiation of a payment plan with the former directors (the “Charge”) pursuant to Title 8, Section 322 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Section 322”). The Order did not create a full, general receivership over the Company, and the Limited Receiver’s appointment is limited to the foregoing Charge. The Order provides that the Limited Receiver should first attempt to resort to resolving the Charge through operating cash flow. The Limited Receiver will have all powers generally available to a receiver under Section 322 solely with respect to the Charge, and the Limited Receiver will not have authority over the Company except in connection with the Charge. The initial term for the Limited Receiver was 59 days from the date of the Order. Additionally, Gold Flora and LCV would incur a daily fine of $1,000 until the contempt is cured, provided that the fine would not become due and payable if the Charge is satisfied or a payment plan is in place by October 31, 2024.

On November 4, 2024, the Court issued a stipulation and order (the “Stipulation”) and the Limited Receiver filed an interim report (the “Report”). The Stipulation requires the Company to pay an aggregate of $150,000 per month to the satisfy amounts due under the Order. Pursuant to the Report, the Limited Receiver stayed the limited receivership, conditioned upon the Company’s compliance with the payment plan and satisfaction of any future advancement demands brought by the former directors.

Additional Note

On November 6, 2024, the Company issued an Additional Note to the Investor pursuant to the Loan Agreement . The Additional Note has an original principal amount of $2.78 million and a funded amount of $1.9 million.
