The Albany Gazette - Strategic Acquisition Expands Industrial Platform and Talent Base

Management believes that this acquisition aligns with its growth strategy by:

• Expanding the Company's capabilities and "bench" by adding an accomplished team of professionals with proven development and transaction expertise and established industry relationships-accelerating the talent growth that would otherwise have taken years to build organically and enhancing the ability to deliver on the ten-year investment and development strategy.

• Much needed additional resources will support the Company's efforts to execute on existing plan to double NOI over the next five years, furthering our progress to increase FRP's sum-of-the-parts valuation to over $1 billion upon stabilization of the five-year development pipeline.

• Enhancing deal flow and pipeline projects for both wholly owned and joint venture opportunities.

• Broadening its exposure to high-quality industrial assets in key markets.

• Giving the Company 100% ownership of the Lakeland and Davie projects by acquiring Altman's 10% and 20% minority interests, respectively, in those projects.

Management expects that the incoming team will be fully integrated into its industrial platform over the next several months. Their market expertise and relationships will be leveraged to: advance acquisitions, manage the Company's existing development pipeline, and optimize existing stabilized assets. The Company anticipates immediate contributions to sourcing and underwriting activity with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

Details of the Acquisition

The purchase price was $33.5 million, which included a $10 million reimbursement to Altman for the assignment of a bank account held by a special purpose entity that is the guarantor for approximately $49 million on $121.8 million in construction debt. As a result, the net cash requirement was $23.6 million. At closing, $45.3 million of the $121.8 million in total construction financing had been drawn, resulting in a $5.2 million share of debt attributable to the Company. In addition, the Company expects to record additional liabilities related to employee compensation tied to promote participation upon stabilization and sale of the projects.

The Altman Logistics Properties model consisted of a develop and sell program whereby Altman collected development fees from its joint venture partners and held the right to a promote upon a successful sale of the project at stabilization. With respect to all the projects listed in the table below (other than Lakeland and Davie which the Company will now own 100% and intends to own those projects long-term) the Company intends to continue the Altman Logistics Properties model which the Company estimates will generate a 15-20%+ IRR at the property level prior to any promotes the Company would be entitled to receive. More importantly, the transaction adds a seasoned team of professionals from the Altman Logistics Properties platform onto the Company's management team, strengthening its capabilities in acquisition, development, disposition and asset management, and advancing the depth, capability, and operational strength to deliver on our ten-year strategy and position the Company for sustained long-term success.

The following table details the projects purchased and the square feet (SF) of the warehouses:

1. General Partner investment, distributions will be based upon waterfall model.

2. FRP already owns the remaining portion.

Management remains committed to disciplined capital allocation and pursuing opportunities that deliver sustainable value to shareholders.

FRP was advised by Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP in the transaction.
