Executive Team
Our Executive Chairman, Alan Gold, is a 30-year veteran of the real estate industry, including co-founding two New York Stock Exchange-listed REITs: BioMed Realty Trust (formerly NYSE: BMR), a REIT focused on acquiring, leasing, developing and managing laboratory and office space for the life science industry, where he served as chairman, chief executive officer, and president until Blackstone’s acquisition of BioMed Realty in 2016 for $8 billion; and Alexandria Real Estate Equities (NYSE: $ARE), an urban office REIT focused on collaborative science and technology campuses, where he served as president and a director. Our senior management team has significant experience in all aspects of the real estate industry, including acquisitions, dispositions, construction, development, management and lending.
Company Target Market
The Licensed Medical-Use Cannabis Industry
We target medical-use cannabis facilities for acquisition, including sale-leaseback transactions, with tenants that are licensed growers under long-term triple-net leases. We believe this industry is poised for significant growth in coming years, and we are focused on being a creative capital provider to this industry through the long-term ownership of cultivators’ mission-critical facilities.
According to The ArcView Group, nationwide sales of legal cannabis grew to $5.4 billion up from $4.6 billion in 2014. Of the $4.6 billion in estimated sales in 2014, approximately 92% of such sales consisted of medical-use sales. By 2020, legal market sales are expected to grow to an estimated $21.8 billion, of which estimated medical-use sales will be approximately $10.2 billion.
As of November 15, 2016, 29 states and the District of Columbia allow their citizens to use medical cannabis, with an estimated combined population of 203.3 million. We expect other states to approve medical-use cannabis in coming years as well. A 2015 poll by Harris found that 81% of Americans support legalization of cannabis for medical use.
Company Properties
Medical-Use Cannabis Cultivation and Processing Facilities
We acquire specialized industrial real estate assets that are used for growing medical-use cannabis and operated by state-licensed growers. We focus on properties with sophisticated technology and infrastructure to meet rigorous quality standards for medical-use cannabis. Concurrently with our acquisition of these properties, we enter into leases with the state-licensed growers under long-term, triple-net lease agreements. We act as a source of capital to these licensed medical-use cannabis growers by entering into sale-leaseback transactions with them for their specialized industrial real estate.
Company Tenants
Sophisticated, Best-in-Class Medical-Use Cannabis Growers
We work with growers who have been among the top candidates in the rigorous state licensing process.
Through thorough research and analysis of the companies and their management teams, we identify what we consider to be the best licensed medical-use cannabis growers that would benefit from financing for their properties to raise capital to meet their growing needs. Our research expertise is instrumental to uncovering opportunities with the most qualified growers.
Company Leases
Long-Term, Triple-Net Arrangements
Our leases with tenants are generally long-term triple-net lease arrangements, where the tenant is responsible for taxes, maintenance, insurance and structural repairs, in addition to base rent. Our lease terms are generally fifteen years or more, with renewal options exercisable by the tenant, and with contractual annual rent adjustments. By selling the property and building to us, and then leasing it back from us, growers are able to redeploy the proceeds into their company’s core operation and yield a higher return than they would otherwise get from owning their own real estate.

Additionally, we or our affiliates will pay up to $20,000 of certain transportation costs in connection with the roadshow. We have also agreed to reimburse $25,000 of out-of-pocket expenses of certain participating dealers.

Lock-up Agreements
We and each of our executive officers and directors have agreed with the underwriters not to offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for or repayable with common stock (including limited partnership interests in our Operating Partnership) or any rights to acquire common stock for 180 days after the date of this prospectus, without first obtaining the written consent of Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., the representative of the underwriters. Specifically, we and these other persons have agreed, with certain limited exceptions, not to directly or indirectly:
• offer, pledge, sell or contract to sell any common stock;
• sell any option or contract to purchase any common stock;
• purchase any option or contract to sell any common stock;
• grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of any common stock;
• lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of any common stock;
• exercise any right to request or require registration of any common stock or other securities;
• file or cause to be filed any registration statement related to the common stock; or
• enter into any swap or other agreement or transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of any common stock whether any such swap, agreement or transaction is to be settled by the delivery of shares of common stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise.
This lock-up provision applies to common stock and to securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or repayable with common stock. It also applies to common stock owned now or acquired later by the person executing the agreement or for which the person executing the agreement later acquires the power of disposition.
Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer
In order for us to qualify as a REIT under the Code, shares of our stock must be owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months (other than the first year for which an election to be taxed as a REIT has been made) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. Also, under Section 856(h) of the Code, a REIT cannot be “closely held.” In this regard, not more than 50% of the value of the outstanding shares of stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain entities) during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made). See the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in this prospectus for further discussion on this topic.
Requirements for Qualification as a REIT
A REIT is a corporation, trust or association that satisfies each of the following requirements:
(1) It is managed by one or more trustees or directors;
(2) Its beneficial ownership is evidenced by transferable shares of stock, or by transferable shares or certificates of beneficial interest;
(3) It would be taxable as a domestic corporation, but for Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, i.e., the REIT provisions;
(4) It is neither a financial institution nor an insurance company subject to special provisions of the U.S. federal income tax laws;
(5) At least 100 persons are beneficial owners of its stock or ownership shares or certificates (determined without reference to any rules of attribution);
(6) Not more than 50% in value of its outstanding stock or shares of beneficial interest are owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals, which the U.S. federal income tax laws define to include certain entities, during the last half of any taxable year;
(7) It elects to be a REIT, or has made such election for a previous taxable year, and satisfies all relevant filing and other administrative requirements established by the Service that must be met to qualify to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
(8) It uses a calendar year for U.S. federal income tax purposes and complies with the recordkeeping requirements of the U.S. federal income tax laws;
(9) It meets certain other requirements described below, regarding the sources of its gross income, the nature and diversification of its assets and the distribution of its income;
(10) It has no undistributed earnings and profits from any non-REIT taxable year at the close of any taxable year.
We must satisfy requirements 1 through 4, and 8 during our entire taxable year and must satisfy requirement 5 during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months, or during a proportionate part of a taxable year of less than 12 months. Requirements 5 and 6 apply to us beginning with our 2016 taxable year. If we comply with certain requirements for ascertaining the beneficial ownership of our outstanding stock in a taxable year and have no reason to know that we violated requirement 6, we will be deemed to have satisfied requirement 6 for that taxable year. For purposes of determining stock ownership under requirement 6, an “individual” generally includes a supplemental unemployment compensation benefits plan, a private foundation, or a portion of a trust permanently set aside or used exclusively for charitable purposes. An “individual,” however, generally does not include a trust that is a qualified employee pension or profit sharing trust under the U.S. federal income tax laws, and beneficiaries of such a trust will be treated as holding our stock in proportion to their actuarial interests in the trust for purposes of requirement 6.
We believe that we will issue sufficient stock with enough diversity of ownership to allow us to satisfy requirements 5 and 6 above. In addition, our charter provides for restrictions regarding the ownership and transfer of shares of our capital stock. The restrictions in our charter are intended, among other things, to assist us in satisfying requirements 5 and 6 described above. These restrictions, however, may not ensure that we will be able to satisfy such share ownership requirements in all cases. If we fail to satisfy these share ownership requirements, our qualification as a REIT may terminate.
To monitor compliance with the share ownership requirements, we generally will be required to maintain records regarding the actual ownership of our shares. To do so, we must demand written statements each year from the record holders of significant percentages of our shares pursuant to which the record holders must disclose the actual owners of the shares (i.e., the persons required to include our dividends in their gross income). We must maintain a list of those persons failing or refusing to comply with this demand as part of our records. We could be subject to monetary penalties if we fail to comply with these record-keeping requirements. If you fail or refuse to comply with the demands, you will be required by Treasury Regulations to submit a statement with your tax return disclosing your actual ownership of our shares and other information. In addition, we must satisfy all relevant filing and other administrative requirements that must be met to elect and maintain REIT status. We intend to comply with these requirements.
For purposes of requirement 8, we have adopted December 31 as our year end for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and thereby satisfy this requirement.

Executive Team
Our Executive Chairman, Alan Gold, is a 30-year veteran of the real estate industry, including co-founding two New York Stock Exchange-listed REITs: BioMed Realty Trust (formerly NYSE: BMR), a REIT focused on acquiring, leasing, developing and managing laboratory and office space for the life science industry, where he served as chairman, chief executive officer, and president until Blackstone’s acquisition of BioMed Realty in 2016 for $8 billion; and Alexandria Real Estate Equities (NYSE: $ARE), an urban office REIT focused on collaborative science and technology campuses, where he served as president and a director. Our senior management team has significant experience in all aspects of the real estate industry, including acquisitions, dispositions, construction, development, management and lending.
Company Target Market
The Licensed Medical-Use Cannabis Industry
We target medical-use cannabis facilities for acquisition, including sale-leaseback transactions, with tenants that are licensed growers under long-term triple-net leases. We believe this industry is poised for significant growth in coming years, and we are focused on being a creative capital provider to this industry through the long-term ownership of cultivators’ mission-critical facilities.
According to The ArcView Group, nationwide sales of legal cannabis grew to $5.4 billion up from $4.6 billion in 2014. Of the $4.6 billion in estimated sales in 2014, approximately 92% of such sales consisted of medical-use sales. By 2020, legal market sales are expected to grow to an estimated $21.8 billion, of which estimated medical-use sales will be approximately $10.2 billion.
As of November 15, 2016, 29 states and the District of Columbia allow their citizens to use medical cannabis, with an estimated combined population of 203.3 million. We expect other states to approve medical-use cannabis in coming years as well. A 2015 poll by Harris found that 81% of Americans support legalization of cannabis for medical use.
Company Properties
Medical-Use Cannabis Cultivation and Processing Facilities
We acquire specialized industrial real estate assets that are used for growing medical-use cannabis and operated by state-licensed growers. We focus on properties with sophisticated technology and infrastructure to meet rigorous quality standards for medical-use cannabis. Concurrently with our acquisition of these properties, we enter into leases with the state-licensed growers under long-term, triple-net lease agreements. We act as a source of capital to these licensed medical-use cannabis growers by entering into sale-leaseback transactions with them for their specialized industrial real estate.
Company Tenants
Sophisticated, Best-in-Class Medical-Use Cannabis Growers
We work with growers who have been among the top candidates in the rigorous state licensing process.
Through thorough research and analysis of the companies and their management teams, we identify what we consider to be the best licensed medical-use cannabis growers that would benefit from financing for their properties to raise capital to meet their growing needs. Our research expertise is instrumental to uncovering opportunities with the most qualified growers.
Company Leases
Long-Term, Triple-Net Arrangements
Our leases with tenants are generally long-term triple-net lease arrangements, where the tenant is responsible for taxes, maintenance, insurance and structural repairs, in addition to base rent. Our lease terms are generally fifteen years or more, with renewal options exercisable by the tenant, and with contractual annual rent adjustments. By selling the property and building to us, and then leasing it back from us, growers are able to redeploy the proceeds into their company’s core operation and yield a higher return than they would otherwise get from owning their own real estate.

We and each of our executive officers and directors have agreed with the underwriters not to offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for or repayable with common stock (including limited partnership interests in our Operating Partnership) or any rights to acquire common stock for 180 days after the date of this prospectus, without first obtaining the written consent of Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., the representative of the underwriters. Specifically, we and these other persons have agreed, with certain limited exceptions, not to directly or indirectly:
• offer, pledge, sell or contract to sell any common stock;
• sell any option or contract to purchase any common stock;
• purchase any option or contract to sell any common stock;
• grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of any common stock;
• lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of any common stock;
• exercise any right to request or require registration of any common stock or other securities;
• file or cause to be filed any registration statement related to the common stock; or
• enter into any swap or other agreement or transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of any common stock whether any such swap, agreement or transaction is to be settled by the delivery of shares of common stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise.
This lock-up provision applies to common stock and to securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or repayable with common stock. It also applies to common stock owned now or acquired later by the person executing the agreement or for which the person executing the agreement later acquires the power of disposition.
Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer
In order for us to qualify as a REIT under the Code, shares of our stock must be owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months (other than the first year for which an election to be taxed as a REIT has been made) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. Also, under Section 856(h) of the Code, a REIT cannot be “closely held.” In this regard, not more than 50% of the value of the outstanding shares of stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain entities) during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made). See the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in this prospectus for further discussion on this topic.
Requirements for Qualification as a REIT
A REIT is a corporation, trust or association that satisfies each of the following requirements:
(1) It is managed by one or more trustees or directors;
(2) Its beneficial ownership is evidenced by transferable shares of stock, or by transferable shares or certificates of beneficial interest;
(3) It would be taxable as a domestic corporation, but for Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, i.e., the REIT provisions;
(4) It is neither a financial institution nor an insurance company subject to special provisions of the U.S. federal income tax laws;
(5) At least 100 persons are beneficial owners of its stock or ownership shares or certificates (determined without reference to any rules of attribution);
(6) Not more than 50% in value of its outstanding stock or shares of beneficial interest are owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals, which the U.S. federal income tax laws define to include certain entities, during the last half of any taxable year;
(7) It elects to be a REIT, or has made such election for a previous taxable year, and satisfies all relevant filing and other administrative requirements established by the Service that must be met to qualify to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
(8) It uses a calendar year for U.S. federal income tax purposes and complies with the recordkeeping requirements of the U.S. federal income tax laws;
(9) It meets certain other requirements described below, regarding the sources of its gross income, the nature and diversification of its assets and the distribution of its income;
(10) It has no undistributed earnings and profits from any non-REIT taxable year at the close of any taxable year.
We must satisfy requirements 1 through 4, and 8 during our entire taxable year and must satisfy requirement 5 during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months, or during a proportionate part of a taxable year of less than 12 months. Requirements 5 and 6 apply to us beginning with our 2016 taxable year. If we comply with certain requirements for ascertaining the beneficial ownership of our outstanding stock in a taxable year and have no reason to know that we violated requirement 6, we will be deemed to have satisfied requirement 6 for that taxable year. For purposes of determining stock ownership under requirement 6, an “individual” generally includes a supplemental unemployment compensation benefits plan, a private foundation, or a portion of a trust permanently set aside or used exclusively for charitable purposes. An “individual,” however, generally does not include a trust that is a qualified employee pension or profit sharing trust under the U.S. federal income tax laws, and beneficiaries of such a trust will be treated as holding our stock in proportion to their actuarial interests in the trust for purposes of requirement 6.
We believe that we will issue sufficient stock with enough diversity of ownership to allow us to satisfy requirements 5 and 6 above. In addition, our charter provides for restrictions regarding the ownership and transfer of shares of our capital stock. The restrictions in our charter are intended, among other things, to assist us in satisfying requirements 5 and 6 described above. These restrictions, however, may not ensure that we will be able to satisfy such share ownership requirements in all cases. If we fail to satisfy these share ownership requirements, our qualification as a REIT may terminate.
To monitor compliance with the share ownership requirements, we generally will be required to maintain records regarding the actual ownership of our shares. To do so, we must demand written statements each year from the record holders of significant percentages of our shares pursuant to which the record holders must disclose the actual owners of the shares (i.e., the persons required to include our dividends in their gross income). We must maintain a list of those persons failing or refusing to comply with this demand as part of our records. We could be subject to monetary penalties if we fail to comply with these record-keeping requirements. If you fail or refuse to comply with the demands, you will be required by Treasury Regulations to submit a statement with your tax return disclosing your actual ownership of our shares and other information. In addition, we must satisfy all relevant filing and other administrative requirements that must be met to elect and maintain REIT status. We intend to comply with these requirements.
For purposes of requirement 8, we have adopted December 31 as our year end for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and thereby satisfy this requirement.

I would love to see what their business plan is for this segment - im heavily involved in the NYC construction scene and i would have never of guessed this in a million years

yea its very interesting - it would be awesome if someone could post a level 2 screen shot of the bid and ask during tomorrows session
just to get a better view into the bid/ask situation
$MECK
would you dare risk holding the bag?
If news comes before a R/S one could assume its the last ditch insiders dumping
If news comes after a R/S then one could assume the pump is on
You've been around this just as long as I - we shall see
yea but if he were serious about keeping the company going then why file the deregistration docs?
Timeline for Deregistration
An issuer’s periodic reporting obligations under the Exchange Act will be suspended immediately upon its filing of a certification on Form 15 that it has less than 300 holders of record.13 Deregistration under Section 12(g) will become effective 90 days after filing the Form 15. The SEC has the authority to deny such a request for termination, but has rarely done so. The SEC will not accelerate the 90-day period.
Set forth below is a timeline outlining the significant procedural steps in a typical “going dark” transaction for a domestic listed company.
Day 1:
The company files written notice of intent to file a Form 25 with the stock exchange pursuant to Rule 12d2-2(c)(2)(ii), issues a press release and files a Form 8-K announcing that it is delisting and “going dark,” and the reasons therefore. This information should also be placed on the company Web site.
Day 10
The company files Form 25 with the stock exchange and announces the same.
Day 11:
The company stock continues trading or shortly thereafter begins trading in the Pink Sheets.
Day 20:
The company files a Form 15 to deregister its shares under the Exchange Act. The Form 15 may not be filed prior to the effective date of the Form 25 (ten days after filing).
The company issues a press release announcing deregistration.
Day 100:
Section 12(b) deregistration becomes effective.
Day 110:
The 90-day period after filing of Form 15 passes making effective the deregistration of the company’s stock under Exchange Act Section 12(g) and the suspension of reporting obligations under Section 15(d), if applicable.
Filing the Form 15 will immediately suspend the Company’s reporting obligations under Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act making it no longer necessary to file Forms 10-K, 10-Q or 8-K, or in the case of a foreign private issuer, Forms 20-F or 6-K. However, certain other Company reporting obligations continue for an additional 90 days, including obligations to file proxy statements and tender offer statements. As a result, if a proxy solicitation for an acquisition transaction is conducted during this 90-day waiting period, it will still be subject to the rules and disclosure obligations governing proxy statements. In addition, shareholders continue to be required to file Schedule 13Ds and Schedule 13Gs until expiration of the 90-day period following filing of the Form 15 and Section 16 reporting obligations also continue until such date.
