−Removed: was less than its carrying value.
−Removed: Based on management’s evaluation, it was determined that due to market conditions and lack of
−Removed: committed funding, the Company’s ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment in Beakon was impaired.

−Removed: Supreme Court has ruled that it is the federal government that has the right to regulate and criminalize cannabis, even for medical

−Removed: federal government regulates drugs through the CSA, which places controlled substances, including cannabis, in a schedule.
−Removed: is classified as a Schedule I controlled substance.
−Removed: A Schedule I controlled substance is defined as a substance that has no
−Removed: currently accepted medical use in the United States, a lack of safety for use under medical supervision and a high potential for abuse.
−Removed: The DOJ defines Schedule I drugs, substances or chemicals as “drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential
−Removed: for abuse.” However, the FDA has approved Epidiolex, which contains a purified form of the drug CBD, a non-psychoactive ingredient
−Removed: in the cannabis plant, for the treatment of seizures associated with two epilepsy conditions.
−Removed: The FDA has not approved cannabis or cannabis
−Removed: compounds as a safe and effective drug for any other condition.
−Removed: Moreover, pursuant to the Farm Bill, CBD remains a Schedule I controlled
−Removed: substance under the CSA, with a narrow exception for CBD derived from hemp with a THC concentration of less than 0.3%.
−Removed: Company maintains its operations so as to remain in compliance with the CSA.
−Removed: Even in those jurisdictions in which the manufacture and
−Removed: use of medical marijuana has been legalized at the state level, the possession, use and cultivation all remain violations of federal
−Removed: law that are punishable by imprisonment and substantial fines, and the prescription of marijuana is a violation of federal law.
−Removed: individuals and entities may violate federal law if they intentionally aid and abet another in violating these federal controlled substance
−Removed: laws, or conspire with another to violate them.
−Removed: inconsistencies between federal and state regulation of cannabis were addressed in the Cole Memo, which then-Deputy Attorney General
−Removed: James Cole sent to all U.S.
−Removed: District Attorneys in 2013 outlining certain priorities for the DOJ relating to the prosecution of cannabis
−Removed: The Cole Memo acknowledged that, notwithstanding the designation of cannabis as a Schedule I controlled substance at the federal
−Removed: level, several states had enacted laws authorizing the use of cannabis for medical purposes.
−Removed: The Cole Memo noted that jurisdictions that
−Removed: have enacted laws legalizing cannabis in some form have also implemented strong and effective regulatory and enforcement systems to control
−Removed: the cultivation, processing, distribution, sale and possession of cannabis.
−Removed: As such, conduct in compliance with those laws and regulations
−Removed: is less likely to implicate the Cole Memo’s enforcement priorities.
−Removed: The DOJ did not provide (and has not provided since) specific
−Removed: guidelines for what regulatory and enforcement systems would be deemed sufficient under the Cole Memo.
−Removed: In light of limited investigative
−Removed: and prosecutorial resources, the Cole Memo concluded that the DOJ should be focused on addressing only the most significant threats related
−Removed: to cannabis, such as distribution of cannabis from states where cannabis is legal to those where cannabis is illegal, the diversion of
−Removed: cannabis revenues to illicit drug cartels and sales of cannabis to minors.
−Removed: January 4, 2018, former U.S.
−Removed: Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued the Sessions Memo, which rescinded the Cole Memo.
−Removed: Memo stated, in part, that current law reflects “Congress’ determination that cannabis is a dangerous drug and cannabis activity
−Removed: is a serious crime,” and Mr.
−Removed: Sessions directed all U.S.
−Removed: Attorneys to enforce the laws enacted by Congress by following well-established
−Removed: principles when pursuing prosecutions related to cannabis activities.
−Removed: The Company is not aware of any prosecutions of investment companies
−Removed: doing routine business with licensed marijuana related businesses in light of the DOJ position following issuance of the Sessions Memo.
−Removed: However, there can be no assurance that the federal government will not enforce federal laws relating to cannabis in the future.
−Removed: result of the Sessions Memo, federal prosecutors are now free to utilize their prosecutorial discretion to decide whether to prosecute
−Removed: cannabis activities, despite the existence of state-level laws that may be inconsistent with federal prohibitions.
−Removed: No direction was given
−Removed: to federal prosecutors in the Sessions Memo as to the priority they should ascribe to such cannabis activities, and thus it is uncertain
−Removed: how active U.S.
−Removed: federal prosecutors will be in relation to such activities.
−Removed: Federal prosecutors appear
−Removed: to continue to use the Cole Memo’s priorities as an enforcement guide.
−Removed: Merrick Garland, who became Attorney General on March 10,
−Removed: 2021 has indicated that he would deprioritize enforcement of low-level cannabis crimes such as possession, and has shared his
−Removed: view that the government should focus on large-scale criminal enterprises that circumvent state legalization laws instead of going after
−Removed: people who abide by local cannabis policies.
−Removed: The Company believes it is too soon to determine what prosecutorial effects will be created
−Removed: by the rescission of the Cole Memo or any replacement thereof and when or if the Sessions Memo will be rescinded.
−Removed: President Joseph R.
−Removed: Biden, who assumed office in January 2021, has not yet indicated whether and when he will decriminalize or legalize cannabis and has previously
−Removed: stated that he is opposed to legalization.
−Removed: The sheer size of the cannabis industry, in addition to participation by state and local governments
−Removed: and investors, suggests that a large-scale federal enforcement operation would more than likely create unwanted political backlash for
−Removed: the DOJ and the current administration.
−Removed: Regardless, at this time, cannabis remains a Schedule I controlled substance at the federal
−Removed: federal government has always reserved the right to enforce federal law in regard to the sale and disbursement of medical
−Removed: or adult use cannabis, even if state law authorizes such sale and disbursement.
−Removed: It is unclear whether the risk of enforcement has been
−Removed: One legislative safeguard
−Removed: for the medical cannabis industry, appended to the federal budget bill, remains in place following the rescission of the Cole Memo.
−Removed: several years, Congress has adopted the Rohrabacher-Blumenauer Amendment to prevent the federal government from using congressionally
−Removed: appropriated funds to enforce federal cannabis laws against regulated medical cannabis actors operating in compliance with state and local
−Removed: Despite the rescission of the Cole Memo, the DOJ appears to continue to adhere to the enforcement priorities set forth in the Cole
−Removed: Cole Memo and the Rohrabacher-Blumenauer Amendment gave licensed cannabis operators (particularly medical cannabis operators) and investors
−Removed: in states with legal regimes greater certainty regarding the DOJ’s enforcement priorities and the risk of operating cannabis businesses.
−Removed: While the Sessions Memo has introduced some uncertainty regarding federal enforcement, the cannabis industry continues to experience
−Removed: growth in legal medical and adult use markets across the United States.
−Removed: Vice President Kamala Harris is the lead sponsor of the Marijuana
−Removed: Opportunity, Reinvestment, and Expungement (MORE) Act, which seeks to end the federal prohibition of marijuana, among other things, but
−Removed: in March 2020, it was reported that Vice President Harris has adopted the same position as President Biden, who opposes legalization.
−Removed: Currently, there is no guarantee that state laws legalizing and regulating the sale and use of cannabis will remain in place or that
−Removed: local governmental authorities will not limit the applicability of state laws within their respective jurisdictions.
−Removed: Unless and until
−Removed: Congress amends the CSA with respect to cannabis (and as to the timing or scope of any such potential amendments there can be
−Removed: no assurance), there is a risk that federal authorities may enforce current U.S.
−Removed: federal law criminalizing cannabis.
−Removed: Supreme Court has ruled that it is the federal government that has the right to regulate and criminalize cannabis, and federal
−Removed: law criminalizing the use of marijuana preempts state laws that legalize its use, cannabis is largely regulated at the state level.
−Removed: laws that permit and regulate the production, distribution and use of cannabis for adult use or medical purposes are in direct conflict
−Removed: with the CSA, which makes cannabis use and possession federally illegal.
−Removed: Although certain states and territories of the U.S.
−Removed: medical and/or adult use cannabis production and distribution by licensed or registered entities, under U.S.
−Removed: federal law, the possession,
−Removed: use, cultivation and transfer of cannabis and any related drug paraphernalia is illegal and any such acts are criminal acts under federal
−Removed: law under any and all circumstances under the CSA.
−Removed: Although the Company’s activities are believed to be compliant with applicable
−Removed: state and local laws, strict compliance with state and local laws with respect to cannabis may neither absolve the Company of liability
−Removed: federal law, nor may it provide a defense to any federal proceeding which may be brought against the Company.
−Removed: of December 31, 2020, 35 states, plus the District of Columbia (and the territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S.
−Removed: Virgin Islands
−Removed: and the Northern Mariana Islands), have legalized the cultivation and sale of cannabis for medical purposes.
−Removed: In 15 of those states, the
−Removed: sale and possession of cannabis is legal for both medical and adult use, and the District of Columbia has legalized adult use but not
−Removed: commercial sale.
−Removed: In November 2020, voters in Arizona, Montana, New Jersey and South Dakota voted by referendum to legalize cannabis for
−Removed: adult use, and voters in Mississippi and South Dakota voted to legalized cannabis for medical use, and in February 2021, the Virginia
−Removed: legislature approved a bill that would legalize cannabis for adult use beginning in 2024.
−Removed: The Virginia bill is awaiting signature by
−Removed: the governor, and if signed, Virginia will be the first southern state to legalize cannabis for adult use.
−Removed: Also in February 2021, New
−Removed: Jersey Governor Phil Murphy signed three bills into law that legalize cannabis for adult use.

−Removed: are likely to emerge as the growth engine for Zoned Properties.

−Removed: 2020 to July 31, 2020 on all of our Significant Tenant leases which decreased our cash flow from operation during the year ended December
−Removed: 31, 2020 by $179,000.
−Removed: In addition, the parties agreed that from the period from May 31, 2020 to June 30, 2022, our Significant Tenants
−Removed: will invest a combined total of at least $8,000,000 improvements in and to the properties in Chino Valley and Tempe prior to June 30,

−Removed: including, without limitation, base rent.
−Removed: March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide.
−Removed: We are monitoring this closely, and although operations have not been materially affected by the COVID-19 outbreak to date, the ultimate

−Removed: Currently, all of the
−Removed: properties in our portfolio are open to our Significant Tenants and their customers and will remain open pursuant to state and local

−Removed: We did not experience in 2020 or 2021, and we do not foresee in 2022, any material changes to our operations
−Removed: from COVID-19.
−Removed: Our tenants are continuing to generate revenue at these properties and they have continued to make rental payments in

−Removed: while we do not anticipate an impact on our operations, we cannot estimate the duration of the pandemic and potential impact on our business
−Removed: if the properties must close or if the tenants are otherwise unable or unwilling to make rental payments.
−Removed: In addition, a severe or prolonged
