Commitments and Contingencies | On November 8, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement with Gregory DiPaolo’s Pro Am Golf, LLC to acquire improved property located in Westfield, New York. The total purchase price of $1,600,000 is to be paid with a deposit of 50,000 shares of common stock, followed by cash of $1,250,000 and 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be delivered at closing. The deposit of 50,000 shares issued as a deposit was $42,500 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Subsequently, we entered into an amended Purchase and Sale Agreement on October 24, 2017, under which we amended the total purchase price to Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000) and forfeited our previous deposit of stock. Under the terms of the amended agreement, we paid an additional Ten Thousand Dollar ($10,000) deposit on October 26, 2017, with the remaining purchase price to be paid on or before the date closing date, which was scheduled on May 1, 2018. The property is approximately 43 acres and has unlimited water extraction rights from the State of New York. We had planned to use this property as our inroads to the New York hemp and infused beverage markets in the future. Since the property was in foreclosure it was put up for auction, which occurred on July 1, 2019. At the auction, we were the winning bidder with a bid of $597,000. Our prior deposit payment of $120,000 was credited towards the purchase price, and the remaining $477,000, was finally due on November 30, 2019, after several extensions (which cost us total of $40,000 to obtain). At the end of December 31, 2019, a total of $92,00 was issued as a deposit for the property. We were not able to meet that deadline, but in January 2020 we worked out an additional extension with the bank. Under the terms of the new agreement, we still owe approximately $392,000 to acquire the property. We have agreed to pay that amount in installment payments of $10,000 per month for six months beginning February 2020, with a balloon payment of approximately $332,000 due on or before August 3, 2020. To date we have paid the $10,000 payments for February 2020 and March 2020, and plan to pay the April 2020 payment on time. We need to raise funds in order to make the remaining scheduled payments. On January 19, 2018, the Company was sued in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona ( William Martin v. WEED, Inc.. . Travis Nelson v. Sangre AgroTech, LLC, et al. (Huerfeno County Colorado District Court, Case No. 2018CV30003, filed on February 5, 2018). Mr. Travis Nelson, formerly a member of the subsidiary Sangre AgroTech, LLC, filed this action alleging wrongful discharge in retaliation for whistleblower activity purportedly related to insider trading, fraud and unlawful interstate transportation of plant genetics. After a motion to dismiss was granted in part, Mr. Nelson filed a second amended complaint asserting revised claims for breach of fiduciary duty, wrongful discharge, and violation of the Colorado organized crime control act.

In his initial disclosures, Mr. Nelson alleges damages of $10,000,000. On January 31, 2019, Mr. Nelson submitted an offer of judgement in the amount of $100,000. That offer was rejected by the Corporation. Court-ordered mediation was conducted on April 24, 2019, but the matter was not resolved.
