| PART II, LINE 9: | INTANGIBLE ASSETS OF THE CONSERVANCY AT DECEMBER 31, 2023 CONSIST OF 14 PERPETUAL EASEMENTS FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF PROPERTY ALONG THE DETROIT RIVERFRONT WITH A TOTAL CARRYING VALUE OF $19,366,508. DONATED EASEMENTS ARE CARRIED AT THEIR ESTIMATED FAIR MARKET VALUE AT THE TIME OF DONATION. PURCHASED EASEMENTS ARE CARRIED AT COST BASIS. ALL OF THE EASEMENTS HELD ARE PERPETUAL IN NATURE; THEREFORE, THEY ARE NOT SUBJECT TO AMORTIZATION. IN 2012, THE CONSERVANCY SOLD 7 EASEMENTS WITH A TOTAL CARRYING VALUE OF $15,691,354, ALONG WITH RELATED IMPROVEMENTS CONSTRUCTED ON THOSE EASEMENTS, TO THE MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES (MDNR) FOR CONSIDERATION IN THE AMOUNT OF $15,000,000, AND, SIMULTANEOUSLY THEREWITH, THE CONSERVANCY AND MDNR ENTERED INTO A LEASE DATED NOVEMBER 20, 2012, UNDER WHICH THE CONSERVANCY LEASED BACK THE EASEMENTS AND IMPROVEMENTS (AS AMENDED, THE "2012 LEASE AGREEMENT"). THE 2012 LEASE AGREEMENT HAS AN INITIAL TERM OF 50 YEARS WITH AN AUTOMATIC EXTENSION OF 49 YEARS. DURING THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023, THE CONSERVANCY ASSIGNED 2 ADDITIONAL EASEMENTS TO MDNR WITH A TOTAL CARRYING VALUE OF $1,860,000, ALONG WITH RELATED IMPROVEMENTS CONSTRUCTED ON THOSE EASEMENTS FOR CONSIDERATION IN THE AMOUNT OF $2,000,000, AND AMENDED THE 2012 LEASE AGREEMENT TO INCLUDE THE 2 ADDITIONAL EASEMENTS THEREUNDER. UNDER THE TERMS OF THE 2012 LEASE AGREEMENT, THE CONSERVANCY RETAINS CONTROL OF THE EASEMENTS AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE PARCELS. THEREFORE, THE TRANSACTIONS DID NOT QUALIFY AS A SALE, AND THE EASEMENTS REMAIN ASSETS OF THE CONSERVANCY. UNDER THE 2012 LEASE AGREEMENT, THE PROCEEDS FROM THE TRANSACTIONS MUST BE RETURNED TO MDNR IF THE UNDERLYING EASEMENTS ARE TERMINATED AS A RESULT OF ABANDONMENT OR NONUSE DURING THE TERM OF THE 2012 LEASE AGREEMENT.
