COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation - The Company exited a leased property and accrued related lease exit costs of approximately $0.8 million in December 2016. The Company subsequently entered into a legal dispute related to this golf property and settled the dispute in July 2018 (see Note 15). In June 2018, the Company accrued an additional $6.6 million for a total of $7.4 million to settle this legal dispute which is recorded as accounts payable and accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The Company is and may become, from time to time, involved in legal actions in the ordinary course of business, including governmental and administrative investigations, inquiries and proceedings concerning employment, labor, environmental and other claims. Although management is unable to predict with certainty the eventual outcome of any legal action, management believes the ultimate liability arising from such actions, individually and in the aggregate, which existed at June 30, 2018, will not materially affect the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flow. Given the inherent unpredictability of these types of proceedings, however, it is possible that future adverse outcomes could have a material effect on our financial results.
Commitments - In 2016, the Company entered into a ground lease in Orlando, Florida. During June 2017, the Company committed to the lease as there were no remaining material contingencies under the terms of the lease. The initial lease term is 20 years and includes three 5-year renewal options.
In March 2017, the Company entered into a ground lease in Richmond, Virginia. During December 2017, the Company committed to the lease as there were no remaining material contingencies under the terms of the lease. The initial lease term is 20 years and includes three 5-year renewal options.
Contingencies - In September 2017, Hurricane Irma caused significant damage to a Traditional Golf property in Florida, including damage to trees, bunkers and other landscaping. The three golf courses at this property were closed immediately and reopened prior to December 31, 2017. The property is insured for property damage and business interruption losses related to such events, subject to deductibles and policy limits. The Company has incurred $5.2 million in property repair costs related to Hurricane Irma of which $1.0 million was incurred in 2018. The Company expects to incur an additional $0.5 to $1.0 million in property repair costs in 2018. The Company was reimbursed $2.0 million and $3.0 million by the insurer in 2017 and 2018, respectively. Property repair costs and insurance reimbursement are recorded in operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
