10. Related Party Transactions:

The Company has three operating leases with Weinstein Enterprises, Inc. (“Landlord”), an affiliated company, principally owned by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of both the Company and Landlord. One lease is for building, improvements, and land located at Jamaica Avenue at 169th Street, Jamaica, New York (“Jamaica, New York”). The second lease is for premises located at 504-506 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, New York. The third lease is for 25% of the premises located at 508 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, New York.

In April 2023, the Company exercised one of four five-year option periods with Landlord to extend the Jamaica, New York lease beyond May 31, 2030 for a total of five years through May 31, 2035. As of April 30, 2025, it is not reasonably certain the remaining three options to extend the lease from May 31, 2035 to May 31, 2050 will be exercised by the Company.

In December 2024, Weinstein Enterprises purchased the 508 Fulton Street property, including an existing lease, from another landlord who owned 25% of the property. Starting in January 2025, J.W. Mays began making rent payments to Weinstein Enterprises with no other changes to the existing lease.

Rent payments and expense relating to these three operating leases with Landlord follow:
