Kaupulehu Developments is entitled to receive a percentage of the gross receipts from the sales of single-family residential lots in Increment I from KD I, a land development partnership in which Barnwell holds a 19.6% non-controlling ownership interest accounted for under the equity method of investment. The percentage payments are part of a 2004 transaction where Kaupulehu Developments sold its leasehold interest in Increment I, which was prior to Barnwell’s affiliation with KD I which commenced on November 27, 2013, the acquisition date of our ownership interest in the Kukio Resort land development partnerships.

During the six months ended March 31, 2015, Barnwell received $2,150,000 in percentage of sales payments from KD I from the sale of six contiguous lots within Phase I of Increment I to a single buyer and five lots within Phase II of Increment I. The lot sale during the six months ended March 31, 2014 occurred prior to our purchase of ownership interests in the Kukio Resort land development partnerships.
