The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets reflect amounts related to periodic advances between the Company and these entities for working capital and other needs as due from related companies or due to related companies, as appropriate.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company received royalty revenue from franchisees related to a significant stockholder totaling approximately $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
The Company leases building space for its corporate office from an entity under common ownership with a significant stockholder. This lease had a 36-month term, effective January 1, 2020. For each of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, rent expense was approximately $0.1 million. In January 2022, we exercised our right to terminate this lease effective as of July 2022. Pursuant to an amended lease we entered into in February 2022, we also lease approximately 16,500 square feet (expanding to approximately 18,500 square feet in July 2022) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for a term expiring in 2032, with an option to renew. This building space for our new combined BurgerFi and Anthony’s corporate office is leased from an entity controlled by the Company's Executive Chairman of the Board.
The Company also leases building space for a restaurant located in Virginia from an entity (i) in which the Company's Executive Chairman of the Board has an indirect minority ownership interest, and (ii) which is managed by an entity in which the Company's Executive Chairman of the Board has an indirect ownership interest. This lease, entered into on October 21, 2020, is for a ten-year term effective on the earlier to occur of the date the tenant opened for business and 180 days from the date the landlord delivered possession of the premises to the tenant. Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $8,000 and $0, respectively.
In April 2021, the Company entered into an independent contractor agreement with a corporation (the “Consultant”) for which the Chief Operating Officer (the "Consultant Principal") of Lionheart Capital, LLC, an entity controlled by the Company’s Executive Chairman of the Board, serves as President.

Further, effective January 3, 2022, the Consultant Principal was granted 37,959 unrestricted shares of common stock of the Company, and the Company recorded share based compensation of approximately $0.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 for this award.
