The previously announced arbitration proceedings between the parties remain in process with respect to Emerald’s right to set-off a $5.94 million payment owed by Emerald to PSF against a portion of the more than $13 million currently owed by PSF to Emerald under its shareholder loan. A final decision on the arbitration is expected in summer 2020. Emerald continues to own 50% of the outstanding shares of PSF.
“We are pleased that this issue has been resolved in Emerald’s favour and we will rely on the ongoing arbitration process to resolve the remaining issues,’’ said Riaz Bandali, President and CEO of Emerald.
On December 13, 2019, Emerald advanced $940,000 to PSF as part of its agreement to pay an aggregate of $25.0 million in connection with the exercise of the joint venture’s acquisition of the Delta 2 greenhouse. It also advanced its required final payment of $710,000 on January 15, 2020. No further amounts are payable by Emerald under the D2 option agreement.
