SPECIAL DISTRIBUTION ELECTION FORM
On November 9, 2020, the board of directors of CTO Realty Growth, Inc., a Florida corporation (“CTO”), declared a special distribution on shares of its common stock in an aggregate amount of $55.8 million, or approximately $11.83 per share (the “Special Distribution”). The Special Distribution is to ensure that all of CTO’s previously undistributed earnings and profits attributable to taxable periods ended on or prior to December 31, 2019 have been distributed. CTO expects to pay the Special Distribution on December 21, 2020.
Each shareholder of CTO has the option to elect to receive the Special Distribution entirely in shares of CTO common stock (a “Share Election”) or entirely in cash (a “Cash Election”), subject to the amount of cash to be distributed being limited to an aggregate of $5.58 million (the “Maximum Cash Amount”) (excluding any cash paid in lieu of issuing fractional shares), which represents 10% of the aggregate amount of the Special Distribution. The actual amount of cash that will be paid to shareholders who make the Cash Election will depend on whether the aggregate amount of all Cash Elections exceeds the Maximum Cash Amount. If the aggregate amount of Cash Elections exceeds the Maximum Cash Amount, the payment of cash will be made on a pro rata basis to shareholders making the Cash Election in an aggregate amount equal to the Maximum Cash Amount, with the balance paid in shares of CTO common stock. Shareholders who make a Share Election will receive all shares. Cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares so that shareholders receive a whole number of shares of common stock. If you do not return a properly completed election form, or fail to return it in the manner or by the deadline specified below, you will be treated as having made a Share Election.
If you hold shares of CTO common stock of record, please complete and sign this election form and return it to Computershare, the election agent, in the enclosed postage-paid envelope as soon as possible.
