Automobile Assembly Plant near West Point, Georgia. The supplier can obtain a 1-year option to buy the

land option, if purchased, would expire 1-year from now. The supplier has two years to make a decision on
whether to build the plant and start operations, once the land was purchased. The required capital investment

anytime over next two years.
