(1)According to the California Chapter of the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers, there are eight distinct growing regions within California; our farms are spread across six of these growing regions.

Leases

General

Most of our leases are on a triple-net basis, an arrangement under which, in addition to rent, the tenant is required to pay the related taxes, insurance costs, maintenance, and other operating costs.  Our leases generally have original terms ranging from 3 to 10 years for farms growing row crops and 7 to 15 years for farms growing permanent crops (in each case, often with options to extend the lease further).  Our lease agreements will generally include one of the following rental structures: (i) fixed base cash rents, (ii) fixed base cash rents, plus a variable component, referred to as “participation rents,” based on the gross revenues generated from the respective farms, or, to a lesser extent, (iii) no fixed base cash rents (or, in certain cases, a cash allowance to cover certain operating or capital costs), in exchange for a significantly higher share of participation rents.  Fixed base cash rent is generally payable to us in advance on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, with such rent typically subject to periodic escalation clauses as set forth within the lease, while participation rent is generally payable to us annually, with the majority of it coming in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.  Currently, 92 of our farms are leased on a pure, triple-net basis, 46 farms are leased on a partial-net basis (with us, as landlord, responsible for all or a portion of the related property taxes), 3 farms are leased on a single-net basis (with us, as landlord, responsible for the related property taxes, as well as certain maintenance, repairs, or insurance costs), 4 farms are direct-operated, and 5 farms are vacant.  Additionally, 24 of our farms are leased under agreements that include participation rents, though such leases often include a guarantee of a minimum amount of rental income.

Lease Expirations

Agricultural leases are often shorter term in nature (relative to leases of other types of real estate assets), so in any given year, we may have multiple leases up for extension or renewal.  The following table summarizes the lease expirations by year
