Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Client Note 1

“Client Note 1 - On December 5, 2017, Meditation Groups, Inc. aka Meditation Mount was significantly impacted by the Thomas Fire. Damage from the fire created safety concerns, which were actively addressed up to and through June 30, 2018. As a result of the safety concerns, Meditation Mount has been closed to the public resulting in lost revenue for the period 12/05/2017 to 6/30/2019. Meditation Groups re-opened February 9 to February 21, 2020 and then Covid 19 happened and closed. Meditation Mount reopened October 23, 2020.”
