Note 1: Organization and Nature of Business

Organization and Nature of Business

HOF Village, LLC (“HOFV” or the “Company”) was established as a Delaware Limited Liability Company on August 5, 2015, and operates under an agreement dated December 11, 2018 that was amended by the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement dated July 31, 2019 (the “LLC Agreement”). Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, the Company was established by initial equity members IRG Canton Village Member, LLC (“IRG Member”), a Delaware Limited Liability Company, and National Football Museum, Inc., doing business as the Pro Football Hall of Fame (“PFHOF”), an Ohio corporation, collectively (the “Members”). The Company was formed for the purpose of developing a mixed-use real estate and entertainment destination in Canton, Ohio, which is presently comprised of approximately 100 acres of land surrounding the historic Pro Football Hall of Fame (the “Hall of Fame Village Property”) through its subsidiaries. In 2016, HOF Village was rebranded as Johnson Controls Hall of Fame Village (“JCIHOFV”) as part of an 18-year, $135 million naming rights agreement with Johnson Controls (see Note 6). As of June 30, 2020, IRG owned 59% of HOF Village and PFHOF owned 35% of HOF Village.

The term of the Company shall continue in perpetuity in full force and effect until the dissolution and termination of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Amended LLC agreement or by operation of law.

The JCIHOFV consists of dynamic, multi-use venues which management believes will generate significant attendance from the region through strong synergies between project components. Phase I was completed on August 1, 2017, having constructed the Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium (“Stadium”) in Canton, Ohio, youth fields, land acquisition, parking infrastructure and general site infrastructure and formed a media company. Plans for future components of the JCIHOFV include two premium hotels, an indoor waterpark, the Center for Excellence (with an office building including retail and dining establishments), the Center for Performance (a convention center/field house) and the Hall of Fame Retail Promenade. Long-term expansion plans include the addition of the Hall of Fame Experience (an immersive VR/AR attraction), a luxury hotel with retail space, a performance center/arena, multi-family housing, and other complementary components.

The Company has entered into several agreements with Pro Football Hall of Fame, which is an affiliate of JCIHOFV, and government entities which outline the rights and obligations of each of the parties with regard to the property on which the JCIHOFV sits, portions of which are owned by the Company and portions of which are net leased to the Company by the government entities (see Note 7). Under these agreements, Pro Football Hall of Fame and the government entities are entitled to use portions of the JCIHOFV on a direct-cost basis.

On December 11, 2018, the Company entered into the Master Transaction Agreement, whereby, among other things, it amended its LLC Agreement (see Note 4).

Organization and Nature of Business (continued)

On September 16, 2019, the Company entered into a definitive business combination agreement (as amended, the “BCA” or the “Business Combination Agreement”, and the transactions contemplated thereby, the “Business Combination”) with Gordon Pointe Acquisition Corp (“GPAQ”), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, GPAQ Acquisition Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”), GPAQ Acquiror Merger Sub, Inc., GPAQ Company Merger Sub, LLC, and HOF Village Newco, LLC (“Newco”), to create a sports, entertainment and media enterprise surrounding the Pro Football Hall of Fame. On July 1, 2020, the parties to the BCA consummated the transactions contemplated thereby, which included the Company transferring all of its assets and liabilities to Newco, which is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings, subsequently renamed Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company (“HOFRE”). The Business Combination is further described in Note 13.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company has sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations through June 30, 2020. In addition, its Bridge Loan matures within twelve months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements, in November 2020. Since inception, the Company’s operations have been funded principally through the issuance of debt. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $2.2 million of unrestricted cash. On July 1, 2020, the Company consummated its merger agreement with GPAQ, whereby the Company’s convertible notes were converted into equity, $15.0 million of the Company’s Bridge Loan was converted into equity and $15.5 million of its Bridge Loan was repaid. The balance of approximately $34.5 million has been guaranteed by IRG. In the event that IRG advances funds to the Company to pay off the Bridge Loan, under the terms of the guarantee, IRG will become a lender to the Company with a maturity date of August 2021. The Company believes that, as a result, it currently has sufficient cash and financing commitments to meet its funding requirements over the next year. The Company expects that it will need to raise additional financing to accomplish its development plan over the next several years. The Company expects to seek to obtain additional funding through convertible debt financing via Private Investment in Public Equity (“PIPE”) Investments. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and Rule 10 of SEC Regulation S–X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for audited financial statements. However, in the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and operating results have been included in these statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed March 10, 2020.

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2020.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and activity of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Investments in a variable interest entity in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary; or where the Company does not own a majority interest but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. All intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates and assumptions for the Company relate to bad debt, depreciation, costs capitalized to project development costs, useful lives of assets, fair value of financial instruments, and estimates and assumptions used to measure impairment. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Property and Equipment and Project Development Costs

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. During the construction period, the Company capitalizes all costs related to the development of the Hall of Fame Village. Project development costs include predevelopment costs, amortization of finance costs, real estate taxes, insurance, and other project costs incurred during the period of development. The capitalization of costs began during the preconstruction period, which the Company defines as activities that are necessary to the development of the project. The Company ceases cost capitalization when a portion of the project is held available for occupancy and placed into service. This usually occurs upon substantial completion of all costs necessary to bring a portion of the project to the condition needed for its intended use, but no later than one year from the completion of major construction activity. The Company will continue to capitalize only those costs associated with the portion still under construction. Capitalization will also cease if activities necessary for the development of the project have been suspended. As of June 30, 2020, the second two phases of the project remained subject to such capitalization.

The Company reviews its property and equipment and projects under development for impairment whenever events or changes indicate that the carrying value of the long-lived assets may not be fully recoverable. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its carrying costs, an impairment charge is recorded.

The Company measures and records impairment losses on its long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amount. Considerable judgment by management is necessary to estimate undiscounted future operating cash flows and fair values and, accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. On January 18, 2019, management determined that previously capitalized costs for the development of a hotel should be written off because plans for this particular hotel and site location have been abandoned and will not benefit the current plans for another hotel elsewhere on the site. Management reviewed its capitalized costs and identified the costs that had no future benefit. The Company recorded a $12,194,783 charge as a loss on abandonment of project development costs within the accompanying statement of operations.

Cash and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company maintains its cash and escrow accounts at national financial institutions. The balances, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

Restricted cash includes escrow reserve accounts for capital improvements and debt service as required under certain of the Company’s debt agreements. The balances at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $11,460,679 and $5,796,398, respectively.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are generally amounts due under sponsorship and other agreements. Accounts receivable are reviewed for delinquencies on a case by case basis and are considered delinquent when the sponsor or debtor has missed a scheduled payment. Interest is not charged on delinquencies.

The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. Management individually reviews all delinquent accounts receivable balances and based on an assessment of current creditworthiness, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0 and $1,306,047, respectively, which relates to the Company’s receivable from Youth Sports Management, LLC (“Youth Sports”). See Note 7 for additional information on Youth Sports.

Deferred Financing Costs

Costs incurred in obtaining financing are capitalized and amortized to additions in project development costs during the construction period over the term of the related loans, without regard for any extension options until the project or portion thereof is considered substantially complete. Upon substantial completion of the project or portion thereof, such costs are amortized as interest expense over the term of the related loan. Any unamortized costs are shown as an offset to Notes Payable on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Investment in Joint Venture

The Company previously used the equity method to record the activities of its 50% owned joint venture in Youth Sports. The equity method of accounting required that the Company recognize its initial capital investment at cost and subsequently, its share of the earnings or losses in the joint venture. The joint venture agreement was structured whereby the Company was not at risk for losses above its original capital investment. Therefore, the Company did not record a deficit that would have resulted in the equity being negative from the investment in joint venture.

The maximum exposure to loss represented the potential loss of assets which may have been recognized by the Company relating to its investment in the joint venture. On May 29, 2020, the Company acquired the remaining 50% in Youth Sports for the accounts receivable amounts due from them, which was fully reserved as of the date of the transaction. The results of this non-cash transaction increased the Company’s interest to 100%. Upon acquisition, the Company consolidated the Youth Sports joint venture, an inactive voting interest entity. The Company accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition under a cost accumulation model, no gain on the change of control of interest was recognized in the consolidation, resulting in no consolidated assets or liabilities.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the provisions of the “Income Taxes” topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). There is no provision in the accompanying financial statements for federal or state income taxes because the entities comprising the Company are organized as limited liability companies structured to be treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. Accordingly, items of income, expense, deduction, and credit are reported in the individual income tax returns of the members.

In accordance with the “Income Taxes” topic of the FASB ASC, uncertain income tax positions are evaluated at least annually by management. The Company classifies interest and penalties related to income tax matters within property operating expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company identified no uncertain income tax positions and has incurred no amounts for income tax penalties and interest for the periods then ended.

The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (the “Budget Act”) provides new rules for the audits of entities treated as partnerships for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2018.  These rules will only apply in the event the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) audits the Company’s tax return. 

Should the Company subsequently receive such a notice and should the audit result in adjustments increasing the taxable income of the members, the Company may be liable for payment of the income taxes that would have been imposed on the members.  If the Company is eligible to make an election out of the new rules and makes such an election or the Company elects to push out the adjustments to the members in a timely manner, the Company will not be liable for any income taxes that result from any IRS audit of any taxable year beginning on or after January 1, 2018. As of the date of this report, the Company has not received any notice of audit by the IRS. 

Revenue Recognition

The Company has adopted ASC 606, Revenue with Contracts with Customers, with a date of initial application of January 1, 2019. As a result, the Company has updated its accounting policy for revenue recognition to reflect the new standard. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company generates revenues from various streams such as sponsorship agreements, rents, cost recoveries and event revenues. The sponsorship arrangements, in which the customer sponsors a play area or event and receives specified brand recognition and other benefits over a set period of time, recognized revenue on a straight-line basis over the time period specified in the contract. Refer to Note 6 for more details. Revenue for rents, cost recoveries and events are recognized at the time the respective event or service has been performed.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Revenue Recognition (continued)

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer. If the contract does not specify the revenue by performance obligation, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Such prices are generally determined using prices charged to customers or using the Company’s expected cost plus margin. Revenue is recognized as the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied. If consideration is received in advance of the Company’s performance, including amounts which are refundable, recognition of revenue is deferred until the performance obligation is satisfied or amounts are no longer refundable.

Advertising

The Company expenses all advertising and marketing costs as they are incurred. Total advertising and marketing costs for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $49,908 and $14,946, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $267,595 and $41,774, respectively, which are recorded as property operating expenses on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company also received a grant of $100,000 from Visit Canton on April 3, 2020, whose purpose is to be used to generate visitors to the Canton area through the Company’s events. This grant will be used to offset future marketing and tourism expenses. The grant is recorded in other liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed balance sheet.

Ground Rent Expense

Ground rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related operating lease.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to affiliate, other liabilities, preferred equity instruments, and notes payable approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s operations and financing activities are conducted in United States dollars and as a result, the Company is not subject to significant exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The Company is exposed to credit risk through its cash and restricted cash, but mitigates this risk by keeping these deposits at major financial institutions.

ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or payment to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs in measuring fair value as follows:

● Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

● Level 2 Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any financial instruments that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

On December 11, 2018, in connection with the Master Transaction Agreement (as discussed in Note 4), the Company recorded the initial values of its preferred equity loan and subordinated debt agreements at fair value. The Company used the following assumptions to calculate the fair value of those instruments:

	Preferred Equity Loan			Subordinated Debt

Recent Accounting Standards

In February 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), as modified by subsequently issued ASU Nos. 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20 and 2019-01 (collectively “ASU 2016-02”). This ASU is effective for private companies beginning after December 15, 2021. ASU 2016-02 requires recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most prominent among the changes in ASU 2016-02 is the lessees’ recognition of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for operating leases. The right-of-use asset and lease liability are initially measured based on the present value of committed lease payments. Leases are classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition. Expenses related to operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis, while those related to financing leases are recognized under a front-loaded approach in which interest expense and amortization of the right-of-use asset are presented separately in the statement of operations. As the Company is an emerging growth company and following private company deadlines, the Company has an additional deferral under this ASU to adopt beginning after December 15, 2022. Similarly, lessors are required to classify leases as sales-type, finance or operating with classification affecting the pattern of income recognition. Classification for both lessees and lessors is based on an assessment of whether risks and rewards as well as substantive control have been transferred through a lease contract. ASU 2016-02 also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of this new standard on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”), as amended by ASU 2018-19, 2019-04, and 2019-11. This standard requires the use of a forward-looking expected loss impairment model for trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments. ASU 2016-13 does not prescribe a specific method to make the estimate, so its application will require significant judgment. ASU 2016-13 is effective for public companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Based on the Company's analysis, ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations and financial condition upon adoption on January 1, 2020.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Targeted Transition Relief, which allows entities with an option to elect fair value for certain instruments upon adoption of Topic 326. The standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of this new standard on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. ASU 2019-12 also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual and interim financial statement periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of this new standard on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Standards (continued)

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint-Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815.” This ASU is effective for private companies beginning after December 15, 2021. Early application is permitted, including early adoption in an interim period for public business entities for periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. An entity should apply ASU No. 2020-01 prospectively at the beginning of the interim period that includes the adoption date. This ASU among other things clarifies that a company should consider observable transactions that require a company to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting under Topic 323, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures, for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. The new ASU clarifies that, when determining the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options a company should not consider, whether upon settlement or exercise, if the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity method or fair value option. Following the completion of the Business Combination, this new standard is no longer applicable to the Company.

In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements,” which requires an entity (a lessee or lessor) to provide transition disclosures under Topic 250 upon adoption of Topic 842. In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases. The ASU adds and amends SEC paragraphs in the Accounting Standards Codification to reflect the issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 related to the new credit losses standard and comments by the SEC staff related to the revised effective date of the new leases standard. This new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of this new standard on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent events have been evaluated through August 10, 2020, the date the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. Other than what has been disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements, no other events have been identified requiring disclosure or recording.

Bridge Loan

On March 20, 2018, the Company negotiated a term loan (“Bridge Loan”), with additional amendments during 2018, creating a facility of $65,000,000 with a number of lenders, overseen by a single administrative agent, and secured by a mortgage and a security interest in the assets of the Company. In addition, a guaranty was provided by an affiliated individual. On February 19, 2019, a forbearance agreement was signed which amended the additional margin over LIBOR to 12.5% and extended the maturity date until June 28, 2019. The Company received additional extensions on this Bridge Loan to September 13, 2019 and again on November 16, 2019. Among other things, this amendment extended the maturity date of the facility to October 31, 2020 and has a flat interest rate of 12% computed on an annual basis. The Bridge Loan has an exit fee of 1% on the $65,000,000 balance due at the maturity of the loan, which the Company is accreting over the term of the Bridge Loan.

Bridge Loan (continued)

At the date of the business combination between the Company and GPAQ, on July 1, 2020, the Company used proceeds from the business combination to pay $15,500,000 on the Bridge Loan, while an additional $15,000,000 converted into equity in the newly formed HOFRE. The remaining balance following the business combination was approximately $34,500,000. The maturity date on the remaining balance has been extended one month to November 30, 2020. Should the Company be unable to pay off the principal balance at maturity, IRG agreed to advance funds to the Company to pay off the Bridge Loan, under the terms of the guarantee. As a result, IRG would become a lender to the Company with a maturity date of August 2021.

Tax Incremental Funding Loan

For the Company, the Development Finance Authority of Summit County (“DFA Summit”) offered a private placement of $10,030,000 in taxable development revenue bonds, Series 2018. The bond proceeds are to reimburse the developer for costs of certain public improvements at the JCIHOFV, which are eligible uses of tax-incremental funding (TIF) proceeds.

Under the cooperative agreement entered into by the Company, two subsidiaries, the City of Canton, DFA Summit, Stark County Port Authority, and the bank trustee, the Company and certain subsidiaries have been exempted from certain real estate taxes. However, the Company must make real estate tax payments on the TIF parcels sufficient to cover future required payments on the bond debt service until the 2018 bonds are no longer outstanding. This is a significant commitment made by the Company and is guaranteed by an individual’s trust, an individual, and two subsidiaries of the Company.

Since the bond debt service is fixed and determinable, a liability has been recorded as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, representing the present value of the future bond debt service payments. The term of the TIF requires the Company to make installment payments through July 31, 2048. The current imputed interest rate is 5.2%, which runs through July 31, 2028. The imputed interest rate then increases to 6.6% through July 31, 2038 and finally increases to 7.7% through the remainder of the TIF. The Company is required to make payments on the TIF semi-annually in June and December each year. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company made principal payments on this loan totaling $95,000 and $90,000, respectively.

Syndicated Unsecured Term Loan and Preferred Equity Loan

On January 1, 2016, as amended and restated on October 15, 2017, the Company entered into a financing agreement with a syndicate of lenders, including affiliates of the IRG member, for a loan amount up to $150,000,000 as an unsecured promissory note. The loan may not be prepaid either in whole or in part until the initial maturity date without the express consent of the lender. The loan proceeds are intended to cover working capital and the construction costs for venues including the Stadium, Youth Fields, and campus infrastructure projects. The maturity date is February 26, 2021, and the loan accrues interest at a rate of 12% per annum.

Syndicated Unsecured Term Loan and Preferred Equity Loan (continued)

In accordance with the Extinguishment of Liabilities subtopic of the FASB ASC 470-50, given that ACC was a related party, the Company treated the Master Agreement as a capital transaction and recapitalized the debt to equity in the amount of $96,076,120, net of discounts and unamortized deferred financing costs.

The subordinated debt accrues interest at a rate of 5% and the balance is due February 26, 2021. The remaining subordinated debt is subordinate to the bridge loan. Additionally, the subordinated debt contains a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest provision, which represents contractually deferred interest added to the subordinated debt outstanding balance that is due at maturity. For the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred PIK interest of $165,907 and $83,123, respectively.
