Global Option Agreement. The Company and Global Companies LLC (“Global”) are parties to an Option Agreement to Purchase Real Property and Related Assets, dated June 9, 2003 (the “Option Agreement”). On April 27, 2012 pursuant to the Option Agreement Global preliminarily exercised its option to purchase the Company’s petroleum storage terminal and related pipeline and pier located in East Providence, Rhode Island (collectively the “Facility”). The parties were unable to agree on the purchase price. In accordance with the Option Agreement they each selected an appraiser to appraise the Facility. The Company’s appraiser valued the Facility at $46,200,000 and Global’s appraiser valued the Facility at $15,400,000. As the Company’s appraised value was more than 10% higher than Global’s, in accordance with the Option Agreement the parties selected a third appraiser who on May 17, 2013 valued the Facility at $35,000,000. Under the terms of the Option Agreement the purchase price is determined by averaging the appraised value determined by the third appraiser with the appraised value determined by either the Company’s or Global’s appraiser whichever is closer in value to the value determined by the third appraiser. Accordingly, the purchase price is $40,600,000 [($46,200,000 + $35,000,000) / 2]. Global failed to give notice of its election to proceed with further studies of the Facility within ten business days of the receipt of the third appraisal and as result the Option Agreement pursuant to its terms terminated on June 3, 2013. Under the Option Agreement Global is responsible to pay the expenses incurred by the Company with respect to its appraisal and the Company’s share of the expenses of the third appraiser.
