On October 26, 2011, FRP Bird River, LLC ("FRPBR"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Patriot Transportation Holdings, Inc.

The Company intends to continue to complete the entitlement process for this parcel of land for residential development and will market it appropriately as the demand for residential property in this area improves in the future.
