Any such review shall be solely the expense of MJNE and shall not occur more frequently than quarterly; provided, however, that if MJNE determines a material disparity between the results of operation reported by Company and the results of MJNE’s audit, in MJNE’s sole but reasonable determination (it being agreed and understood that a disparity of five percent or greater will be considered material), then MJNE may review Company’s records more frequently (“Additional Audits”) and may require Company to bear the costs of the same.

(m) Security. Company shall install and maintain at the Designated Acreage, at its sole expense, such fences, walls, doors, locks, security systems, camera systems, fire alarms and other security apparatus, including, without limitation, intrusion and motion detection, panic buttons, duress alarm and internal and external video surveillance as may be necessary to meet the requirements of Nevada laws, or as may be directed by the CCB or any other regulatory body with authority over the Cultivation Facility. Company shall submit its security plan to MJNE for its approval prior to installing any fences, walls, or doors, which approval may be denied or conditioned by MJNE, in its sole discretion. MJNE reserves the right to install fencing and other security measures at the Cultivation Facility (including on and around the Designated Acreage) and to charge Company a pro rata share of the cost thereof, which will be promptly paid by Company upon invoicing.

The foregoing notwithstanding, MJNE shall have the right to approve in advance all packaging and product representation and claims.

 

4. Fees and Expenses. As further set forth in Section 5, below, MJNE shall collect revenue from the sale of the products produced by Company hereunder, which revenue shall be for MJNE’s account. As set forth below, Company shall earn a management fee (the “Cultivation Management Fee”) based on the total invoiced amount for the sale of such product (each sale, an “Order”), after the deduction of taxes paid in connection with such Order, as set forth below. If MJNE is owed any fees or expenses hereunder attributable to an Order and funds are not available from the proceeds of such Order (whether because of customer non-payment or otherwise), then MJNE shall invoice Company for such fees and expenses, which invoice will be paid in full by Company within 10 business days of the date of invoice. Alternatively, and in its sole discretion, MJNE may deduct such fees and expenses related to an Order from the Cultivation Management Fee otherwise payable from the proceeds of a prior or subsequent Order.

 

(a) Deposits. Upon execution of this Agreement, Company shall pay MJNE the sums identified as “Deposits” on Exhibit A. Each of these sums shall be non-refundable except in the event that this Agreement is not approved by the CCB or the Cultivation License shall not be approved for use at the Cultivation Facility.

 

(b) Security and Compliance Fee. Company shall pay MJNE the Security and Compliance Fee set forth on Exhibit A to compensate MJNE for certain security and regulatory compliance expenses incurred by MJNE. This fee shall be paid monthly by the first of each month throughout the Term commencing with the first of the month immediately following the date of the Commencement Notice and may be deducted from any deposits or other funds of Company (including funds otherwise payable as the Cultivation Management Fee, defined below, then in the possession of MJNE). Amounts unpaid by the 10th of the month shall be considered past due and shall incur a late fee of $500.00. The Security and Compliance Fee shall be increased by MJNE each year based on an increase in the regional cost of living but not less than 1.5% per year and not more than 10% in any five-year period.

 

8
 

 

(c) Royalty. Company shall pay MJNE a percentage of all invoiced Orders less applicable taxes (the “Product Royalty”). The Product Royalty rate is set forth on Exhibit A hereto and is subject to the minimum royalty set forth therein. Such payments are due and payable by Company upon sale of product regardless of whether the purchaser has paid all or any part of the purchase price. Company shall be entitled to a credit or credits for any authorized returns. In the event that Company and MJNE is unable to collect from a purchaser the total amount owed to MJNE and Company for an Order, Company is still obligated to pay the Product Royalty to MJNE for the total amount of the invoiced Order to purchaser.

 

(d) Cultivation Management Fee. Company shall earn a Cultivation Management Fee based on the Net Sales Revenue, at the rate set forth on Exhibit A. For purposes hereof, “Net Sales Revenue” means gross revenue actually realized from an Order less any returns or credits authorized by MJNE related to such Order and less Order Expenses (as defined in subsection (e)) related to such Order. As stated elsewhere in this Agreement, MJNE may retain the following prior to distributing the Cultivation Management Fee to Company to the extent that MJNE has not otherwise recouped such sums: (i) all Order Expenses related to a prior Order; (ii) the monthly royalty set forth in subsection (c), above, as well as any Product Royalty related to a prior Order; (iii) the security and compliance fee set forth in subsection (b), above related to a prior Order; (iv) any returns or credits authorized by MJNE related to such product; and any other fees, expenses, or other sums of money owed to, or invoiced by MJNE to Company. Further, to the extent that Company separately has paid MJNE for any Order Expenses, such sums will not be included in the determination of Net Sales Revenue (i.e., such sums will not be double counted). For the sake of clarity, MJNE may deduct from the Cultivation Management Fee paid to Company any or all sums owed to it from a prior Order or prior Orders, and any other fees and expenses owed to MJNE by Company.

 

(e) Order Expenses. Company shall pay MJNE for all direct expenses incurred in connection with the Cultivation Services without limitation, including those described in Section 6, as well as the cost of testing product; delivery of product; pick-up and processing of payments; and any other reasonable cost or fee and, as well any late fee, interest or other obligation due from Company to MJNE. Such expenses that are directly attributable to a specific Order, such as the cost of testing product; delivery of product; pick-up and processing of payments; and taxes payable to the State of Nevada related to a specific order, are the “Order Expenses;” provided, however, that if Company separately has paid Company for such taxes related to a specific order, they will not be included in the term Order Expenses as to that Order.

 

(f) Build Out Payment. Company shall pay MJNE for any and all reasonable expenses MJNE incurs in building out or assisting with the build out of the Designated Acreage as agreed to between the Parties.

 

(g) Disbursement. MJNE shall pay Company the Cultivation Management Fee pursuant to Section 4(g), on or before the 10th of each month, for the preceding month’s fee.

Each Receiving Party agrees that, in the event of any breach of this Agreement by it, such breach will cause irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party, and monetary damages will not be sufficient or may not be adequately quantified, and as such, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies as may be available to it, which remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive, and in addition to such other remedies as it may otherwise have at law or in equity.

 

(d) Insider Trading. Company acknowledges that the stock of MJNE is publicly traded and that MJNE is subject to federal and state securities laws, rules, and regulations, including those under the oversight of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Company and its representatives may become aware of material non-public information regarding MJNE in the performance of the Cultivation Services or otherwise in connection with its relationship with MJNE. Company acknowledges that engaging in any transaction in MJNE’s stock while in possession of material nonpublic information, as well as providing material nonpublic information to others who may engage in a transaction in MJNE’s stock while in possession of such information, may subject Company or MJNE or both (as well as their respective officers and directors) to civil and potentially criminal liability. Accordingly, Company and its officers and directors shall ensure that neither the Company, its officers, directors, and members of their respective immediate families, will engage in transactions in MJNE’s stock while in possession of material non-public information and, to the extent that any employees, independent contractors, or other parties associated with Company are or become in possession of material nonpublic information concerning MJNE, Company shall use commercially-reasonable efforts to ensure that they do not engage in such transactions.

15. Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, modified, or supplemented only by an agreement in writing signed by each Party. No waiver by either Part of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

 

16. Assignment. Neither Party may assign, transfer, or convey this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the express prior written consent of the other Party. Any attempted assignment of this Agreement by a Party without the prior written consent of the other Party shall be considered void. Any such assignment and written consent shall be attached to this Agreement and shall be incorporated herein. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

17. Regulatory Compliance; Severability. It is the intent of the Parties that this Agreement comply in all respects with all applicable state and local laws, regulations, rules and interpretive case decisions, and the Parties have structured their relationship with that specific intent. However, each Party understands that such laws, regulations, and case decisions are complicated and in a state of flux. Therefore, in the event that any provisions of this Agreement is rendered invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, or the applicable laws and regulations are altered by any legislative or regulatory body, or either party notifies the other party in writing of its reasonable belief that this Agreement or any of its provisions may be declared null, void, unenforceable, or in violation of applicable laws or regulations, the remaining provisions, if any, of this Agreement shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect. Furthermore, in such event the parties agree to negotiate in good faith an amendment to the Agreement to comply with law while remaining consistent with the parties’ original intent to the fullest extent allowable by law.

 

18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, interpreted, performed, and enforced solely in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without reference to principles of conflicts of law.

 

19. Neutral Interpretation. The Parties acknowledge and agree that they have both participated in the negotiation of this Agreement and its terms and have had the opportunity to have this Agreement reviewed by an attorney of their choosing. The Parties agree that no rules of construction or interpretation shall be applied to this Agreement that would favor one party over the other, and that the Agreement shall be interpreted neutrally. All headings and captions are provided for convenience of the reader only and shall not imply any interpretation of the following subject matter in and of themselves.

20. Dispute Resolution. The Parties agree to discuss in good faith any alleged 16 default or breach described in Section 13 (each generally constituting a failure to abide the terms of this Agreement) telephonically within 48 hours of such time as written notice of the alleged breach is received by the Party alleged to have committed such breach or default. If the alleged issue is not then resolved, then the Parties that authorized representatives of the respective Parties, with settlement authority, will meet in person within seven days to attempt in good faith to resolve the issue. If the issue persists, then the Parties shall resolve the dispute as set forth below. The foregoing shall not preclude any party seeking interim emergency injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction located in Clark County, Nevada or from pursuing injunctive relief under Section 7 hereof. The Parties agree that the Party pursuing injunctive shall not be required to post a bond or shall be required to post the minimum bond required by applicable law, to the extent a bond is not waivable. Nothing contained in this Section 20 precludes MJNE from terminating the Agreement pursuant to Section 2(c).

 

(a) Mediation. Except if emergency injunctive relief is required, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (a “Dispute”) that cannot be settled through negotiation between the Parties shall be mediated by the Parties before a single mediator in Clark County, Nevada, or any other place agreed to by the Parties. Either Party to this Agreement may invoke the right to mediation set forth in this Section 20 (a) by sending written notice to the other Party of such invocation and setting forth in adequate detail the nature of the matter to be mediated. The Parties to the mediation jointly shall appoint the mediator within 15 calendar days of receipt of the written notice. The mediation proceedings shall commence and be diligently pursued by the Parties to this Agreement within 15 calendar days of the appointment of the mediator. Each Party to the mediation shall bear its own cost and expenses incurred with respect to the mediation. The cost of the mediator and the mediation procedure shall be borne equally by the Parties.

 

(b) Arbitration. Any Dispute that has not been settled or resolved by negotiation or through mediation to the satisfaction of the Parties within 90 days of the notice of the invocation of mediation pursuant to Section 20(a) above (or such other date as the Parties may agree) shall be resolved through binding arbitration. Either Party shall have the right to submit the Dispute to arbitration set forth in this Section 20(b) by sending written notice to the other Party. The Parties shall name a single arbitrator within 20 calendar days after such written notice. If the Parties fail to select an arbitrator, then each Party shall designate a third-party attorney duly licensed and in good standing in the State of Nevada, which two designees shall together designate a third person, duly licensed as an attorney in the State of Nevada, which person (if he or she accepts such appointment) shall be the arbitrator. If those designees cannot agree on an arbitrator, then the arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with then existing rules and processes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitrator shall render a decision within 60 calendar days after his or her appointment and shall conduct all proceedings pursuant to the then existing rules of AAA governing commercial transactions, to the extent such rules are not inconsistent with Nevada law and this Agreement. The cost of the arbitration procedure shall be borne by the non-prevailing Party or, if the decision is not clearly in favor of one Party or the other, then such costs shall be borne as determined by the arbitrator. The arbitration procedure provided for in this Agreement shall be binding arbitration and shall be the sole and exclusive dispute resolution mechanism for any applicable Dispute, except to the extent that judicial enforcement proceedings are necessary to give effect to the resulting arbitral award.

21. Limitations on Damages. MJNE shall not be liable to Company for any action or inaction, whether intentional or not, made any other third party, including but not limited to, other parties that are conducting cultivation activities at the Cultivation Facility, which affects Company’s ability to operate, grow or conduct sales pursuant to this Agreement. MJNE is only responsible to Company for any willful or grossly negligent action on the part of MJNE or its direct employees. Company reserves the right to pursue claims against any third-party vendor or MJNE affiliate.

 

Company acknowledges and understands that there may be additional cannabis operators conducting grow operations at the Cultivation Facility. As such, there is risk that an additional operator may jeopardize MJNE’s license to operate, thereby impacting Company’s ability to operate. If another operator jeopardizes the license, or causes the license to be revoked or suspended, thereby negatively impacting Company’s ability to conduct operations pursuant to this Agreement, Company agrees that MJNE shall have no liability to Company for the same. Company enters into this Agreement with full knowledge of the foregoing and does so with the understanding and willingness to accept the risk as stated herein.

 

22. Venue. Any arbitration or other action to enforce or interpret this Agreement shall exclusively be in Clark County, Nevada.

 

23. Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

24. Federal Government Action. The Parties acknowledge that they are aware of and fully understand that despite the State of Nevada’s marijuana laws and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Nevada-licensed marijuana cultivators, transporters, distributors, or possessors may still be arrested by federal officers and prosecuted under federal law. In the event of federal arrest, seizure, or prosecution associated with the activities described in this Agreement, the Parties agree to hold each other harmless and agree to be individually responsible for any attorneys’ fees associated with defending such actions. The Parties also agree to waive illegality as a defense to any contract enforcement action related to this Agreement.

 

25. Relationship of the Parties. This Agreement does not create any partnership or joint venture between the Parties. Company shall be an independent contractor pursuant to this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither Party shall have any express or implied right or authority to assume or create any obligations on behalf of or in the name of the other Party or to bind the other Party to any contract, agreement, or undertaking with any third party.

 

26. Further Assurances. Each Party will execute and deliver such further instruments and take such further action as may be required to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement.

 

18
 

 

27. Entire Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other negotiations, agreements, representations, and covenants, oral or written. All the Recitals and Exhibits hereto are hereby incorporated within the Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other Agreement between the parties, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control, unless specifically varied by a subsequent Agreement. This Agreement may be amended or otherwise modified only by a written documents signed by each of the Parties hereto.

 

28. Execution. The Parties may execute this Agreement in counterparts, all of which, when considered together, shall constitute one agreement. This Agreement may be executed by DocuSign or any other e-signature method authorized by MJNE.
