On November 21, 2008, Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (the Company) issued a press release regarding a letter it sent to David Winters of Wintergreen Advisers, LLC, (Wintergreen) a shareholder of the Company, rejecting a proposal from Wintergreen because it would have provided Wintergreen with undue influence over the Company and was deemed not in the best interests of the Companys shareholders. A copy of the Companys press release including the full text of the letter is filed with this Form 8-K and attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
In the interest of disclosure and transparency, the Company, for the benefit of its investors, has included copies of prior correspondence exchanged directly between the Company and Wintergreen to provide investors with additional information related to the Companys response. By letter to the Company dated May 30, 2008, attached as Exhibit 99.2, Wintergreen made a demand for inspection of corporate records, and Wintergreen made a subsequent demand for inspection of additional corporate records in a letter to the Company dated August 29, 2008, attached as Exhibit 99.3. The Company responded in detail to Wintergreen in a letter dated October 17, 2008, attached as Exhibit 99.4, and in that letter suggested scheduling a meeting with Wintergreen.
Since early June, the parties, principally through outside counsel, have also had numerous discussions and exchanges of correspondence regarding Wintergreens inspection of certain of the Companys books and records, including a suggestion by the Companys outside counsel that the parties schedule a meeting to address various issues. The Companys Governance Committee and Wintergreen have also corresponded regarding the current vacancy on the Board of Directors; copies of that correspondence are attached as Exhibit 99.5, 99.6, and 99.7 respectively.
Representatives of the Company and of Wintergreen have participated in two recent conference calls on November 5, and November 11, 2008. During the second conference call, the Companys two lead directors agreed to send Wintergreen the Companys proposed draft settlement and standstill agreement (the transmitted email and proposed agreement are attached as Exhibit 99.8). By letter dated November 17, 2008, Wintergreen rejected the Companys proposal and provided its own proposed settlement and standstill agreement. That letter and proposed agreement are attached as Exhibit 99.9. Wintergreens proposal was rejected by the Company in the letter attached as part of Exhibit 99.1.

Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. Determines that Proposal from Wintergreen Advisers is
Not in Best Interests of Shareholders
DAYTONA BEACH (November 21, 2008) Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (AMEX:CTO:NYSE Alternext USCTO) (the Company) announced today that its Board of Directors has reviewed and rejected a proposal from Wintergreen Advisers, LLC (Wintergreen), the Companys largest shareholder, because it would have provided Wintergreen with undue influence over the Company and was deemed not in the best interests of the Companys other shareholders.
The Companys Board has detailed its reasoning in the response to Wintergreen and is also filing that correspondence in a Form 8-K. In that filing, the Company will also include copies of prior correspondence exchanged directly between the Company and Wintergreen regarding Wintergreens demand for inspection of corporate records and other matters (such as the nomination of Board candidates) to provide investors with additional information related to the Companys response. Included in that filing will be copies of the Companys proposal to include Wintergreen nominees and settle outstanding matters between the parties and Wintergreens letter rejecting the Companys proposal together with a copy of Wintergreens counterproposal. The Companys is making this filing for the benefit of its investors and in the interest of disclosure and transparency.
The Wintergreen proposal required, in part, that the Company do the following:
| Immediately appoint a director nominee nominated by Wintergreen to fill a vacancy on the Companys nine-member Board of Directors and have that nominee named Chairman of the Board no later than the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders; |
| Nominate two additional Wintergreen director nominees as candidates for the Board of Directors, to be included in the Board-endorsed slate of nominees at the Companys 2009 Annual Meeting; and |
| Amend the Companys charter documents to provide for the annual election of all Directors beginning in 2010 and allow Wintergreen to nominate additional candidates for those seats. |
Although the Board greatly respects the considerable investment that Wintergreen has made in the Company and agrees that it warrants reasonable representation on the Companys Board of Directors, the Board determined that the proposed terms suggested by Wintergreen were so excessive that they would have infringed on the rights of nearly three-quarters of the Companys shareholders giving the Board no choice but to exercise its fiduciary obligations and reject the proposal.
On November 11, 2008, the Company offered to fill the current vacancy on the Board with a Wintergreen director nominee, as well as to include one additional Wintergreen nominee on the Board-endorsed slate of nominees for election as directors at the Companys 2009 Annual Meeting. Wintergreen dismissed this offer and responded to it with the Wintergreen proposal submitted to the Company on November 17, 2008.
The full text of the Companys response to Wintergreen follows:

Wintergreen Advisers, LLC
Attn: Mr. David J. Winters
333 Route 46 West, Suite 204
Mountain Lakes, NJ 07046
Dear Mr. Winters:
On Wednesday, November 19, the Board of Directors of Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (the Company) met to review and discuss the proposed Settlement and Standstill Agreement between the Company and Wintergreen Advisers that you submitted on November 17.
As Consolidated Tomokas largest shareholder, we recognize the significant investment you have made in the Company, and we have consistently sought over time to be highly considerate of and responsive to your ideas, suggestions, and requests. This included your nominee becoming a Director in 2007, who since voluntarily resigned in March 2008, and our most recent offer to fill the Boards current vacancy with an independent Director nominated by Wintergreen, as well as a second independent Director proposed by Wintergreen to be included in the Boards slate for election at our 2009 Annual Meeting.
The Board continues to believe that a shareholder of Wintergreens size is entitled to reasonable representation on the Board; however, the Boards fiduciary responsibility requires that it represent the best long-term interest of all of the Companys shareholders. Regretfully, the Agreement that you have proposed would require the Board to abandon its responsibility and place the interests of Wintergreen Advisers above the interests of the remaining roughly three-quarters of the Companys shareholders.
It is apparent to the Board from your proposal that Wintergreen Advisers seeks to gain control of Consolidated Tomoka as quickly as possible and without paying any change-in-control premium to the Companys other shareholders. This is apparent both through the content of your proposal as well as the manner in which it was proposed, which required that the Board accept your terms without any modification within two days of receipt.
Among other things, your proposal requires that three (3) Wintergreen Directors be named to the Companys Board of nine (9) by the 2009 Annual Meeting, one of whom would become Chairman, and that beginning in 2010, Wintergreen be permitted to nominate candidates for the remaining six (6) seats on a declassified Board. Accepting these demands could confer considerable power to one shareholder at the expense of others and put Wintergreen in a position to assert majority control of the Board by 2010.
Mr. David J. Winters
November 19, 2008

The Board would be remiss if we did not reiterate its sincere concern about several strategic recommendations that Wintergreen has made over the years. Specifically, Wintergreen has advocated that the Company adopt the following strategies including:
| abandoning the Companys 1031 strategy, which provides predictable income by investing in lower-risk and geographically dispersed income properties; |
| discontinuing land sales in favor of self-development of our properties; |
| suspending the quarterly dividend in spite of the fact that some of our investors require a dividend to continue to own our stock; and |
| pursuing an aggressive stock repurchase program during the peak of the real estate cycle when available funds were needed for income property investments, roads, and other infrastructure that would improve shareholder value. |
Had Consolidated-Tomoka adopted these strategies the Company would be in severe financial distress at this point. The Company would have significant debt, potential high vacancy rates in new self-developed properties, minimal income from land sales, and negative cash flow requiring the Company to sell off valuable assets at depressed prices in order to meet ongoing operational expenses. In contrast, the Boards adopted strategy has allowed the Company to remain profitable with a strong balance sheet and little debt, positioning us to outperform most of our peer group during the current economic environment.
We are further perplexed by these strategy changes because at the time of your initial investment you expressed very strong support for the Companys management team and our strategy and business plan, which were formally adopted in 1999, and which have been clearly articulated and remain substantially unchanged. As you know, our core strategy is to utilize 1031 exchanges to convert agricultural land holdings into stable income-producing properties to generate dependable cash flow at any point in the real estate cycle, and we believe the strategy has been firmly validated in this current environment.
We welcome your positive involvement with the Company, but the Board would fundamentally violate its fiduciary responsibility if it adopted your proposal and allowed one shareholder to gain significant control of the Company, particularly when that shareholder has advocated a range of strategies that in both hindsight and going forward would be very detrimental to shareholder value.
Again, we hope that you will reconsider your present course, but until such time, the Board must act in the best interests of all of its shareholders and reject your proposal.
Respectfully, |
/s/ Linda Crisp |

Re: Demand for Inspection of Corporate Records by Shareholder
Dear Ms. Crisp:
As we wrote to you on May 30, 2008, Wintergreen Advisers, LLC (the Adviser) may be deemed to beneficially own 1,481,474 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (CTO). The Adviser desires to inspect and copy certain of CTOs books and records. In our May 30th letter, the Adviser made a formal demand to inspect and copy such records pursuant to Section 607.1602, Florida Statutes. The inspection is being conducted pursuant to Florida law for the purposes of (a) enabling the Adviser to determine whether the affairs of CTO are being properly administered by CTOs corporate officers and (b) ascertaining the value of CTOs stock.
In fulfilling these purposes, the Adviser met with CTO representatives at CTOs offices in Daytona Beach on various dates this summer to inspect and copy books and records of CTO. To date, the books and records made available to the Adviser have omitted numerous books and records described and sought in the initial demand. Although CTO is legally obligated under Florida law to be fully responsive to our initial requests, to this point CTO has been anything but fully responsive. We reiterate our initial demand and specifically demand full and complete responses. Set forth below are the items we described in our initial demand followed, on an item-by-item basis, by an explanation as to how the books and records produced to date by CTO do not adequately respond to the initial demand.
1. Documents (for purposes of this letter, the word documents is defined in the broadest possible terms, and includes electronic records and e-mail) related to CTOs day-to-day financial operations over the past three years, including, but not limited to, any and all: (a) financial statements; and (b) documents showing CTOs cash expenses, categorized by type of expense.
Wintergreen was not provided with any electronic documents relating to CTOs finances (i.e., files from any accounting software). There are many instances where the paper files Wintergreen scanned are truncated (see, for example, cto-

Wintergreen was not provided financial records related to CTO subsidiary Indigo Commercial Realty. Wintergreen demands these records, both paper and electronic documents, along with financial records for any other subsidiaries not previously provided.
Please provide a complete list of all subsidiaries, related parties, affiliated companies, special purpose entities, etc., whether active or dormant.
Please provide all management presentations or executive summaries, both paper and electronic format, that are responsive to all of the items in this letter (not specific to Item 1).
Please provide documents related to any loans outstanding on seller-financed transactions.
Please list all political and charitable contributions made (whether in cash or in kind, such as land or services) during the request period.
Please provide copies of all employment contracts for executives of CTO and its subsidiary companies.
Please provide all responsive documents related to these points or confirm that none exist.
2. Documents related to CTOs real property transactions, including Section 1031 exchanges, over the past five years, including, but not limited to: (i) closing statements; (ii) information regarding the buyers, sellers, lenders, title agents, attorneys, brokers, Section 1031 exchange consultants and any other individuals or institutions involved in such transactions; and (iii) information regarding how funds were transferred pursuant to such transactions and to whom such funds were transferred.
A May 19, 2008 e-mail from William McMunn mentions a letter regarding the Halifax Hospital deal is in a read around file. Neither this file nor read around files related to any of CTOs other real property transactions was produced. Please produce all these files, whether in paper or electronic format, or confirm that none exist.
Please provide all documents relating to transactions with Cornerstone Office Park Owners Association or confirm that none exist.
Please provide any documents describing CTOs relationship with the Charles Wayne Group. Apparently, the Charles Wayne group was at one time affiliated
Page 3

with CTO and now acts as a broker on many of CTOs land sales and income property transactions. Please provide all documents that relate to fees, commissions or other consideration paid to the Charles Wayne Group, as well as all documents detailing any existing business relationships between CTO and the Charles Wayne Group, or confirm that none exist.
CTO did not provide any information regarding why CTO routinely chooses to utilize Volusia Title Services or Equity Title and Closing Corp. as the title and/or closing agent for its land sales. Please provide any documents that explain CTOs policy/procedure/practice in selecting such agents.
Please provide all documents showing that third-party transaction services are put out to competitive bidding or confirm, that none exist.
Volusia Title Services also appears affiliated with First American Exchange Company, which acts as CTOs intermediary on most of its 1031 transactions. Please provide all documents detailing any existing business relationships between CTO, Volusia Title Services and/or First American Exchange Company and any of their subsidiary and/or parent companies or confirm that none exist.
Please provide any Excel spreadsheets or other similar charts or summary documents of corporate record-keeping to organize these transactions, such as the Gorter report mentioned several times in board minutes (e.g. cto-071408-MgmtMinutes2005-2008-000079), or confirm that none exist.
In addition, scanned document cto-062008-2004-SilverHolly-ContNotes-000056 refers to CTOs sale of approximately 4.5 acres of land to Silver Holly Development, LLC in December 2004 for $1.074 million. As apart of this transaction, Tri-Square Realty, Inc. received a $42,215.75 commission. CTO board member William Voges is vice president, director and registered agent of Tri-Square Realty. Please provide any documents given to the board or its audit committee that show that this transaction was reviewed and approved by independent directors, outside counsel and auditors, that the directors who approved this transaction were made aware of the commission being paid to Mr. Voges firm, and that Mr. Voges recused himself from the discussion or confirm that none exist.
Was CTOs conflict of interest policy complied with in connection with this transaction with Silver Holly? Please produce all documents concerning such compliance for this and all other transactions during the timeframe of our demand or confirm that none exist.
The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics adopted April 28, 2004 and Code of Ethical Conduct for Senior Financial Officers adopted February 5, 2004 state that employees and directors should avoid all actual or apparent conflicts of interest, but do not provide any policy, practice or procedure for evaluating any

actual, apparent or potential conflict of interest. Please provide copies of any such policy and procedures that existed before the January 23, 2007 adoption of CTOs Related Party Transaction Policy and Procedures or confirm that no such documents exist.
3. Documents related to the development of CTOs real estate properties over the past five years, including, but not limited to, any and all: (a) information regarding the developers, managers and other individuals or institutions involved in the ongoing development of such properties; and (b) advice or recommendations made in furtherance of the development of such properties, including, but not limited to, any and all documents, CTO board minutes and presentations reflecting how and why the development of the two 15,000 square foot office buildings currently under construction was accomplished.
Very few documents were produced with respect to this item. CTO spent a great deal of time and money on the development of the two 15,000 square foot office buildings, but CTO provided almost no documents, presentations, e-mails, etc. relating to these buildings (such as bids, contractor selection process, budgets, budget variances, tenant projections, commitments, updates to the board, ongoing income projections, etc. regarding the Gateway Commerce Center and any other developments for which CTO has coordinated development), and all related improvements, including clearing, drainage, zoning changes, variances and road and infrastructure development. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
4. Documents reflecting any and all fees paid in relation to CTOs real property transactions and the development of CTOs properties referenced in items 2 and 3 above, including, but not limited to: (a) to whom these fees were paid; and (b) how such fees were paid.
CTO has not produced any documents regarding any commissions paid to Indigo Commercial Realty, commissions paid by CTO to CTO employees, or information regarding commissions paid outside closing (see, for example, cto-06-18-08-2003-DaytonaBeachAuto-FinalDocs-000058ICR Paid Outside Closing). There are multiple references to commissions paid outside closing. Please provide all documents containing this information and any policy/practice/procedure related to the payment of commissions, fees and/or any other consideration or confirm that none exist.
5. Documents reflecting CTOs evaluation of the strategies of purchase of income properties versus the self-development of properties and other alternatives for the development of properties, including, but not limited to, any and all: (a) presentations made to the CTO board; (b) financial projections relating to such evaluation; (c) CTO board minutes from meetings regarding such evaluation; and (d) reports of consultants.

Documents related to the day-to-day operations of the LPGA golf course since the commencement of its operations, including, but not limited to, any and all: (a) financial statements; (b) documents showing the golf courses gross and net income and losses; and (c) CTO board minutes and presentations from meetings regarding the operation of the golf course.
No e-mails were produced from the lpgainternational.com e-mail domain, other than from e-mails incoming to CTO personnel from lpgainternational.com accounts. Please provide all responsive emails from the lpgainternational.com domain as well as any other internet domains or e-mail accounts owned or controlled by CTO.
Please provide all correspondence and e-mails between CTO and/or LPGAInternational.com, the Ladies Professional Golf Association or the management company, Buena Vista Hospitality Group (BVHG).
As in item 1 above, no electronic documents or files related to the LPGA golf courses finances were produced. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
With respect to BVHG, only the contract was produced. Please provide all documents relating to the day-to-day operations of the golf course including, but not limited to, the following reports provided by BVHG (yearly, going back to inception): Annual Operating and Maintenance Plan and five-year Capital Program.
Please provide all documents detailing staffing levels and the BVHG charge account, as well as any business-related golf privileges and complimentary memberships, or confirm that none exist. Given that CTOs golf course operations have consistently lost money for approximately the past decade, these documents should be critical to understanding the valuation of the operation and whether or not the golf course affairs are being properly administered.
The January 23, 2008 presentation to the board states on page cto-071408-No9-BoardPresent-Golf-l0310000306 LPGA International operations as well as the LPGA International Financial Statements will be discussed at the Directors meeting, while previous presentations provided an overview and commentary of LPGA International operations; the same is true of the April 23, 2008 presentation to the board (cto-071408-No9-BoardPresent-Go1f-1031-000311). Please explain why this policy was changed and provide any documents that were provided and minutes of discussions that took place at these board meetings or confirm that none exist.

Please provide all management presentations and executive summaries that have not been produced to date regarding rounds played (both paid and complementary), and membership (both paid and complementary, including a list of all persons who hold complementary membership). What services, amenities or privileges are included in the free passes? Who has control of the passes for the free rounds of golf, greens fees, lunches, etc.? Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
10. Documents reflecting CTOs notification and level of awareness of Mr. Olivaris involvement with Halifax Hospital and its supporting foundation, including, but not limited to, CTO board and committee minutes from meetings regarding Mr. Olivaris nomination and election to the CTO board.
CTO only produced Mr. Olivaris background file. Are there any other documents responsive to this item or more detailed documentation of discussions that were held by the board regarding Mr. Olivaris nomination and fitness to serve as an independent director? Please provide all documents or confirm that none exist.
Please provide any documents that explain the boards or CTOs reasoning behind nominating Mr. Olivari to the board of directors after the entity he is associated with (Halifax Hospital) refused to build the hospital it was contractually obligated to build on land bought from CTO. This broken deal would seem to have caused great financial harm to CTO and its shareholders by depressing the value of CTO-owned land surrounding the hospital site and would therefore raise the question of why CTO would then reward Halifax Hospital by placing Mr. Olivari on the board of directors. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
11. Documents reflecting CTOs notification and level of awareness that (a) William McMunn and members of his immediate family were the recipients of loans from SunTrust Bank granted during the interval between (i) the December 2004 sale by CTO subsidiary Indigo Group to SunTrust Bank of the property located at 2030 LPGA Boulevard in Daytona Beach and (ii) the June 2007 return sale of the same property by SunTrust Bank to Indigo Group and (b) Mr. McMunn sought election to and thereafter was elected in September 2005 to the board of directors of SunTrust Bank of East Central Florida.
No documents were produced that are responsive to this item. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
Was CTOs board made aware of this potential conflict of interest? Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
12. Documents related to the decision to recommend the election of William Davison, outgoing president of a SunTrust regional subsidiary, to CTOs board of
Page 8
Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co.
August 29, 2008
directors effective April 2007, including, but not limited, to any documents that relate to the consideration, if any, given by CTO to Whether (a) outstanding loans from SunTrust to CTO, (b) outstanding loans from SunTrust to Mr. McMunn and members of his immediate family, or (c) SunTrusts failure to build its regional headquarters on the property located at 2030 LPGA Boulevard in Daytona Beach, were relevant to the recommendation of Mr. Davisons election to CTOs board.
CTO only produced Mr. Davisons background file. No documents were produced that are responsive to clauses (b) or (c) of this item. Are there any other documents responsive to this item? Please provide any documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
In his background file, on page cto-071408-Davison-000032, Mr. Davison states that the responsibility for the CTO banking relationship is with the bank officers who are part of the commercial banking unit located in Orlando, FL. Decisions and accountability for the CTO banking relationship are governed by these officers. This would seem to contradict documents cto-062508-2004- SunTrustBank-000205, cto-06-16-08-2003 Bayberry_ColonyLLC-FinalDocs-000080, cto-06-16-08-2003-Bayberry_ColonyLLC-GenCorr-000218 and cto-06-l6-08-2003-Bayberry_ColonyLLC-GenCorr-000219, which show that Mr. Davison clearly had a banking relationship with CTO. Please provide any documents showing that the board was made aware of this relationship, and that it was discussed and approved at the board level, or confirm that none exist.
Please provide any documents that explain the boards or CTOs reasoning behind nominating Mr. Davison to the board of directors after the entity both he and CTO Chief Executive Officer William McMunn are associated with (SunTrust Bank, East Central Florida) refused to build the bank it was contractually obligated to build on land bought from CTO. The pattern established with Mr. Olivari and Mr. Davison of CTOs board rewarding people whose affiliates refuse to honor contracts with CTO by nominating them to CTOs board of directors raises serious doubts that the affairs of CTO are being properly administered. Within the scope and timeframe of this demand, what documents exist to provide an explanation for this phenomenon? Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
13. Documents related to CTOs ownership interest in, business dealings of, staffing of or acquisitions of real property in cooperation with, Indigo Clermont LLC since its formation in 2005.
Please confirm that all responsive documents were produced.

Please provide all documents showing how CTO determines what acreage to sell and how it sets the prices, including all documents containing analysis and review of comparable listings and transactions, presentations to the board or committees or subcommittees showing that the sales prices reflect fair market value and that selling land at these prices is the best potential use of the land (versus self-development or holding the land until a future time), or confirm that no such documents exist.
15. Minutes of all meetings of the board of directors and board committees from January 1, 2005 to the present.
Please confirm that all minutes of board, committee and sub-committee minutes of CTO and all of its subsidiaries for the requested period were produced.
The July 27, 2005 board presentation (cto-071408-No9-BoardPresent-Golf-1031-000230) states that management is constantly in the market for opportunities to acquire large tracts of raw land in the path of future development; the October 26, 2005 Board presentation (cto-071408-No9-BoardPresent-Golf-1031-000239) states that on an ongoing basis, Management will be comparing alternatives for funding wholesale acquisitions of raw land, and the April 23, 2008 report to directors mentions the possible acquisition of a 3,400 acre raw land opportunity in Ft. Myers, FL (cto-071408-No9-BoardPresent-Golf-1031-000308). Please provide any analysis done, presentations given to the board or otherwise prepared by management or outside advisors, and any other documents related to the strategy of acquiring further raw acreage or confirm that no such documents exist.
Please provide all memos between CTO management and its board, such as the memorandum referenced at the bottom of page cto-071408-MgmtMinutes2005-2008-000079 (WHM to send possible memo to the Board re: Charter Amendments after election).
Regarding the SunTrust repurchase (see cto-06-13-2007-BoardMinutes-000104), were any directors considered interested or related parties at the time of the transaction (given that CTO board member William Davison was President and CEO of SunTrust Bank of East Central Florida at the time, and CTO CEO William McMunn was on the board of SunTrust Bank of East Central Florida at the time)? What information, if any, was provided to the audit

Do any documents exist relating to any discussion or analysis of this potential conflict of interest? Was this potential conflict reviewed by the audit committee, outside counsel and auditors? Did Mr. Adams recuse himself from any discussions related to this matter? Please provide all documents relating to such review or confirm that no such documents exist.
16. Minutes of all meetings of the board of directors and board committees prior to January 1, 2005 relating to any of CTOs Section 1031 exchanges or to the LPGA golf course.
Several presentations to the board are incomplete and are missing multiple pages (for example, cto071408-No9-BoardPresent-Gofl-1031-000191 goes from page 13 to page 16; cto-071408-No9-BoardPresent-Golf-1031-000226 presentation starts on page 14). Please provide full copies of all management presentations given to the board and all committees and subcommittees.
17. All internal memoranda, analyses and presentations that relate to any of the foregoing items.
Except for e-mail, no electronic documents have been produced by CTO. Surely, CTO has electronic documents, such as management presentations, executive summaries, financial accounting files, etc. These electronic documents must be produced.

Dear Mr. Winters:
Below please find the responses of Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (the Company) to your August 29, 2008 letter. We have attached a copy of that letter and marked the question subparts consistent with our responses to those subparts. As indicated in this letter, certain additional information is enclosed.
Question # 1
A. Consistent with the Florida law on shareholder inspections, the Company made available our original source records for the specified time period on all closed sales and 1031 income property purchases, as well as our financial records, corporate minutes and various other documents. Over a period of approximately five weeks, Wintergreen Advisers, LLC (Wintergreen) inspected and scanned over 75,000 pages of records. We have included a separate vendor list (Exhibit A) so that Wintergreen can match the full name or vendor number with the truncated names in the financial reports.
B. Indigo Commercial Realty Inc. (ICR) financial records were inspected and scanned by Wintergreen as they are included in the financial statements of Indigo Development Inc. as a division.
C. Attached as Exhibit B is a list of all subsidiaries, related parties, and special purpose entities of the Company. Any financial information relating to the
Mr. David J. Winters
Wintergreen Advisers, LLC
October 17, 2008
Companys subsidiaries or special purpose entities has been provided in the financial information previously inspected and scanned by Wintergreen.
D. To the best of our knowledge, all management presentations that were responsive to your prior requests have been provided.
E. To the best of our knowledge, all seller or subsidiary financing documents, if applicable to any such sale, were included in the contract files Wintergreen inspected and scanned, with the exception of two loan closing statements related to a MSKP Volusia Partners transaction and to the Building Exchange Company transaction, copies of which are attached as Exhibit C.
F. All political contributions were made by checks drawn on the donor companys account and are shown in the financial records provided to Wintergreen. No inkind contributions were made. Charitable contributions are also shown on the financial records previously provided. The Company also transferred road impact fee credits to Halifax Habitat for Humanity as a donation toward the construction of two homes in 2008 at the rate of approximately $2,174 per home. We have agreed to donate credits for a total of twelve Habitat homes.
Wintergreen inspected and scanned all sales transactions for the last 5 years. Two sales in 2006 (the sale of a surplus building in downtown Daytona Beach to Bethune-Cookman University for a new nursing school and the sale of a 28-acre site to the City of Daytona Beach for a new police headquarters facility near an area of current development on Company property) included the Company taking a charitable deduction on the difference between the appraised value and the contract price. The Company also donated 25.5 acres to the Volusia County School Board in 2007 for the immediate construction of a new elementary school, and also donated 11.4 acres to Volusia County in 2006 for a new gun range to move the existing range away from residential development. Charitable transactions were generally disclosed in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2007.
G. There are no employment contracts.
H. See responses above.

Question # 2
A. A Read Around file is one or more file folders continuously routed around the office to all managers and includes, for example, such items as magazines, invitations to seminars, monthly letters from trade groups and charities, newspaper clippings, notices of new regulations, letters and thank you notes received, that may be of interest to one or more of our managers. After a read around file has been circulated, the contents are routinely thrown away. Therefore, there are no saved read around files for Wintergreen to inspect or scan. Enclosed is the letter referenced in the cited e-mail (Exhibit D), which relates to Halifax Hospital. This letter is in a current file on Halifax Hospital and was not part of closed sale file that Wintergreen scanned.
B. To the best of our knowledge, all responsive files and e-mails have been provided. Cornerstone Office Park Owners Association Inc. is a commercial property owners association that manages and maintains the platted common areas of the office complex where the Company leases its office space.
C. Charles Wayne Group Ltd. (CWLTD) was a development venture founded in 1987 between the Company and four local businessmen with development, building, and brokerage expertise. In 1990, the Company acquired all of those businessmens interests in CWLTD and later changed the name to Indigo Group Ltd. (IGL). IGL is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Its financial records for the requested period were provided to Wintergreen for inspection and scanning. Charles Wayne Properties (CWP) is an unrelated company. One of the principals of CWP is one of the four CWLTD businessmen referenced above. CWP acted as the sellers broker in some of our 1031 purchases and has brought prospective purchasers to the Company for land purchases. To the best of our knowledge, CWP was paid a commission on only one sale of Company land during the requested inspection period.
As an introduction to our responses to questions 2.D, E, and F below, the Board of Directors of the Company (the Board) entrusts management with the day-to-day operations of the Companys business. Our senior management team are talented professionals who know and understand our business, and have many years of experience. They are charged with the responsibility to use their best business judgment in discharging their responsibilities including the selection of title agents, environmental consultants, engineers, surveyors, appraisers, contractors, and other consultants to assist the Company in the sale, purchase, and development of real estate. In consultant selection, management uses good

common sense and exercises sound business judgment and practices in selecting such service providers. Factors considered include, but are not limited to, price, quality of service, timeliness of service, knowledge, and expertise. Often multiple quotes are obtained for certain services or for acquisitions in other locales.
D. In Florida, the rates charged for title insurance are established by the State and are referred to by the title insurance industry as promulgated rates. The rates charged are based on the purchase price of the properties to be insured. Additionally, a Florida court decision allows a title agents portion of the promulgated rate to be negotiated. As a result, in the sale of Company properties, we have negotiated with the title insurance agents that the premium charged to the Company is typically an amount equal to approximately two-thirds (2/3) of the promulgated rate (we also routinely negotiate other closing costs). We allow the buyer, if the buyer so chooses, to select its own title agent provided that the Company is not required to pay more than approximately two-thirds (2/3) of the promulgated rate. In addition to discounting the fee, title agents must have knowledge of our properties, be professional and responsive and provide accurate and timely services.
E. Please see paragraph immediately before response D above.
F. Please see paragraph immediately before response D above. First American Title Insurance Company is one of the largest national title insurance companies and is part of First American Corporation, a Fortune 500 company. First American Title purchased Volusia Title Services, Inc. in April 2005. After the purchase, we have continued to receive excellent, quality service at competitive prices from Volusia Title. First American Exchange Co., LLC (First American Exchange) acts as our intermediary, and we believe that using Volusia Title and First American Exchange helps facilitate our sales that utilize Section 1031 exchanges. Our Company has no other relationship with Volusia Title Services or First American Exchange other than the business relationship disclosed herein.
First American Exchange provides the Company with 1031 intermediary services based on an agreed fee schedule. Our experience with First American Exchange has been excellent in terms of service, responsiveness, and reliability. For transactions outside of Florida, First American Exchange is one of the resources used by the Company in selecting and securing quality professionals to provide due diligence and other services in those 1031 acquisitions.

G. We are providing hard copies (Exhibit E) of the portion of the Gorter (activity) report listing all sale closings for the years 2003 to 2007. The portions not provided relate to transactions that did not close, or pending and non-publicly disclosed transactions.
H. Wintergreen has inspected and scanned the Silver Holly closing file. The sales contract provided that Tri-Square Realty, a company related to Silver Holly and the Root Company, was to be paid a co-brokerage commission consistent with Indigo Commercial Realtys published commission schedule. It is very common for real estate companies to have a related or captive brokerage company for co-broking transactions, no different than the Companys wholly owned subsidiary ICR.
As part of Mr. Voges employment with the Root Company, he is the resident agent and a director of Tri-Square Realty, but he is not a licensed real estate broker or salesman. He did not receive any commission or other compensation from the transaction.
Because Silver Holly is a related entity of the Root Company, which is managed by Mr. Voges, who is also a director of the Company, the Company took the necessary steps to address any potential conflict of interest on the part of the Company or Mr. Voges.
Prior to management executing the contract, it met with then Chairman of the Board, Bob D. Allen, to review the contract terms. The contract was also discussed at an Audit Committee meeting with outside auditors in attendance. This contract, which was within managements approval authority and did not require Board approval, but was nonetheless disclosed and discussed at the next board meeting. It was determined that there was no interest that interfered in any material way with the interests of the Company because Silver Holly paid fair market price for the property and under similar market terms and conditions that would be offered to a third party buyer, including the real estate commission. The sale subsequently closed, and two office buildings were built by Silver Holly. The sale was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 and the Proxy Statement for our 2005 Annual Meeting of Shareholders as a related party transaction.
I. See response H. above.

J. Under our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, it is the obligation of our directors, officers, and employees to disclose any conflict of interest. This policy does not prohibit a director, officer, or employee from buying property from the Company or doing business with a company that purchased property from the Company. A conflict of interest occurs when an individuals private interest interferes in any material way with the interests of the Company as a whole; for example, such a conflict would arise if the transaction was not an arms length transaction at market terms and conditions or if special consideration was given that is not available to others and results in personal gain to that director or employee.
It is permissible for officers, directors, and employees to do business with vendors that are doing business with the Company provided that their private interest does not interfere in any material way with the interests of the Company as a whole, such as by receipt of special treatment or discounts not available to others because of their position with the Company. Other than our Code of Business and Ethics (which was adopted on April 28, 2004) and our Code of Ethical Conduct for Senior Financial Officers, we do not have any additional written policies on conflicts of interest.
Question # 3.
The Company has provided the relevant information sufficient for Wintergreen to perform its evaluation, including but not limited to our development manuals, pro forma financial statements, market studies, project budgets, financial documents, and contracts for vertical construction of our Mason Commerce Center.
Question # 4.
The term paid outside of closing refers to the fact that no commission was paid at closing to the Companys wholly owned subsidiary ICR. ICR is usually involved in Company transactions and named in the contract as our broker. This creates a co-broker situation common in the industry such that the buyers broker has an expectation to receive only one-half (1/2) of the normal commission. Because ICR is an affiliate of the parent company, a commission check is not issued to ICR. Further, ICR does not pay any commissions to Company employees related to Company transactions. A review of the financial records already provided to Wintergreen will confirm this.

Question # 5.
The Company believes that it has provided all responsive information. The sections not provided to Wintergreen were either non-responsive or contained forward-looking non-public information.
Question # 6.
A. An income property report is provided to the Board at every Board meeting. In addition, a verbal presentation is presented by management followed by Board discussion. Wintergreen was provided with copies of these Board reports. Annually, at the July Board meeting, the Board reviews the currently approved business strategy and discusses and approves any modifications. Any significant modifications are reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
B. The Company is receiving full rent on 100% of its income property portfolio. One of our tenants, CVS, closed four stores after its acquisition of Eckerd drug stores. Notwithstanding a store closure, the lease remains in full force and effect with all obligations of the lessee being fulfilled. Under the leases, CVS has the sole right to sublease these properties if it chooses to do so. To date CVS has sublet two of these properties, but CVS remains obligated to the landlord under the lease terms.
C. The majority of our portfolio of income properties are triple-net leases, and as such it is the lessees responsibility to maintain the properties and pay all expenses. Two properties, a Best Buy and a Dicks Sporting Goods located near Atlanta, share certain common area maintenance. The Sembler Company manages the common maintenance, and the expense is billed back to the two lessees. Regarding other Company income properties, our corporate staff, working with our lessees real estate/facilities managers and store managers, monitor each property including periodic site inspections by our staff.
Question # 7.
A. Wintergreen was provided with our three internal Development and Income Properties Operations Manuals, which contain the Companys strategies, plans, and operations. In addition the Company has consistently communicated its operating plan and any changes thereto through its Annual Reports on Form 10-K and other periodic reports and press releases.

B. Most of the Companys leases include multiple options to extend the term with adjustments in rent. Our first requirement in evaluating a potential 1031 property is the potential long-term value of the real estate. We annually reevaluate each property.
Management and the Board are aware of the various options available to the Company if the lease term expires while the property is owned by the Company. The options available include the sale of the property, the lease of the property to a similar user or the same user, and the renovation of the property for another use, which could include the sale or lease of the renovated property. Part of Managements selection process is a short and long-term evaluation of each property based on location, strength of the market area, and opinion of potential residual value at the end of the lease term.
Question # 8.
The Company has provided this information to Wintergreen.
Question # 9.
A. The Company has provided Wintergreen with all relevant copies of e-mails sent to and received from the Ladies Professional Golf Association, LPGA International, and Buena Vista Hospitality Group (BVHG). The Company believes that your request to also receive copies of all e-mails between BVHG employees that were not sent to the Company is beyond the reasonable scope and stated purpose of Wintergreens initial request.
B. Regardless of response A above, BVHG is willing to provide copies of its employees e-mails relevant to LPGA International daily operations, provided that a mutually acceptable confidentially agreement is signed and that it is compensated by Wintergreen for the full direct and indirect cost of reviewing and providing such e-mails. These terms were outlined in our counsels letter to your counsel dated September 16, 2008.
C. Wintergreen was provided with hard copies of all relevant LPGA International financial information, which was inspected and scanned by Wintergreen. The Company has no additional obligation to provide the same information in an electronic format.

Mr. David J. Winters

D. The Company believes that the financial information provided to Wintergreen, which included financial statements and a journal of every check written, is sufficient for Wintergreens stated purpose. There is no reasonable business purpose in your request to have the Company provide boxes full of information that would include such-things as weather reports, mechanics inspection reports, food order lists, banquet contracts, starters check off sheets, advertising copy, menus, and similar such items. The Company does not have the time, manpower, or other resources to allocate to provide Wintergreen with such minute detail.
E. To accommodate Wintergreens stated purpose, we have provided a year over year (2001-2007) comparative summary (Exhibit F) of annual operations by operating units, which include average rounds, complimentary (comp) golf rounds, average rates, and food and beverage ratios. LPGA capital plans were previously provided to you. We are including a current staffing level summary (Exhibit G-l). BVHG does have a charge account established. The charge account records are attached as Exhibit G-2 and show a total of $764.79 charged for meals from January 1, 2003 through September 30, 2008.
F. The former on-site General Manager of LPGA International operations, a BVHG employee, provided written and oral reports at each Board meeting. In February 2007 that employee resigned, and the LPGA International management team was subsequently reorganized. The GM position was not filled. The CEO, as president of Indigo International Inc., has been meeting regularly with the BVHG management team for LPGA International to more closely monitor performance. After the reorganization, the Board reports were changed with the Controller presenting the financial performance, and the CEO updating the Board on all operational issues. Any relevant board presentations have been provided.
G. As part of the relocation of the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) to Daytona Beach, the LPGA was to receive certain comp golf rounds for their players, headquarters staff, and business guests. These rounds are included within the comp golf round totals. The Company also provides 12 complimentary social memberships to key LPGA managers. The LPGA is responsible for all charges made on these membership accounts.
All LPGA International full-time employees can play golf during non-working hours on a space available basis. All employee rounds are counted in the comp golf round totals.

The Company currently has five full golf memberships for its senior managers. Those employees, their family members, and guests receive complimentary golf, but must pay for their personal food and merchandise. Other Company managers may play golf on the same space available basis as LPGA International employees. All Company play is included in the comp golf round totals.
The majority of our golf play is daily fee. The Club currently has 74 full golf memberships and 34 social memberships. Our former Chairman, Bob. D. Allen, currently enjoys an honorary full golf membership (no monthly dues), but pays all personal charges. There are no other honorary, complimentary, or reduced rate memberships. LPGA International or the Company donates a modest number of complimentary golf rounds to certain local charities for fundraising purposes. Comp golf rounds donated to charities are generally restricted to off peak play.
The Company limits this practice to local charities that it supports. The Director of Golf Operations is responsible for monitoring all comp golf rounds.
Question # 10.
The Company previously addressed this question in its May 14, 2008 response to Wintergreen. Mr. Olivari is a well-respected, local businessman and principal of a local CPA firm. The Board was interested in recruiting Mr. Olivari, in part, because of the additional expertise he would add to our Audit Committee. During initial discussions with Mr. Olivari, he disclosed that he had recently joined the Halifax Foundation Board, which raises money for special needs of Daytona Beachs local tax-supported public hospital. This was several years after the Company closed on the sale with Halifax Hospital. He also volunteers his professional services (as do other financial experts) on Halifax Hospitals Finance and Budget Committee, which provides budget recommendations and financial review. It is purely an advisory committee. After thorough questioning, it was determined that Mr. Olivaris positions did not cause a conflict of interest based on the following facts:
Mr. Olivari is not an employee or board member of Halifax Hospital.
The sale to Halifax Hospital was consummated several years before Mr. Olivari was considered for a Company Board seat and before he volunteered his services on the Foundation Board and Finance and Budget Committee.
10
Mr. David J. Winters
Wintergreen Advisers, LLC
October 17, 2008
The Foundation and Finance and Budget Committee have no involvement in or decision making over the Halifax land purchase or its development.
Additionally, Mr. Olivari has stated that should any Halifax Hospital issues come before the Board he would recuse himself. He likewise would recuse himself if any Company issues come before either of his voluntary positions with Halifax.
The Halifax Hospital sale did not require Halifax Hospital to build a hospital on the purchased property as approval of new hospitals is regulated by the State of Florida. It simply restricted the land to medical uses including a hospital and required Halifax to construct a hospital office building and a medical services building within two certain time periods. Halifaxs failure to meet either of these obligations would terminate the one mile non-competitive hospital restriction placed on other Company property at closing. Further, the covenants provided the Company with the option to repurchase each of the two prime corners at the original purchase price if the required buildings were not constructed by the dates specified in the covenants. Wintergreens assumption that Halifaxs actions to date have hurt the values of the Companys adjacent property is incorrect.
Question # 11
The Board was not notified of any loans Mr. McMunn or his family members received from SunTrust. The Company has no policy prohibiting employees from doing business with companies that purchase Company land or have an ongoing business relationship with the Company so long as the individuals private interest does not interfere in any material way with the interests of the Company as a whole. (See response to question #2.J)
Mr. McMunn has provided the Board with a written explanation of the personal and family SunTrust loans and his SunTrust Advisory Board position. That letter is attached as Exhibit H.
Question # 12
A. As to Wintergreens question #12(b), please see response to question #11 above and Exhibit H. Mr. Davisons abilities and qualifications were well known to the
11

Company and its directors. When Mr. Davison announced his decision to retire from SunTrust, the Board recruited him as a Board candidate. As stated in other correspondence to you, the Company notified SunTrust of its election to repurchase the property before Mr. Davison became a member of the Board. Only the actual closing took place after his election to the Board. There are no relevant documents related to Wintergreens question #12(c) as the Board considered the qualifications of Mr. Davison as a director nominee not those of his then employer.
B. As the senior Volusia County bank official for SunTrust, Mr. Davison periodically executed documents such as partial releases of mortgages. No releases related to the Companys SunTrust loan were signed by Mr. Davison after he became a director.
C. Mr. Davison was chosen for his business and banking knowledge and local contacts. SunTrusts decision not to build a branch bank within the specified time period was the result of a change in SunTrusts corporate strategy, and was not a consideration in our Companys decision to vet him as a director. The contract terms provided for a mutually agreeable remedy for non-construction - repurchase at our option at the original sales price. In fact, SunTrust asked the Company to waive the build obligation to allow them to land bank the site for future use, which request was not granted by the Company because we did not believe it was in the Companys best long-term interest. We believe the market value of this property at the date of the repurchase was considerably higher than that paid by SunTrust in 2004.
Question # 13
Indigo Clermont LLC is an entity that was formed for the 1031 purchase of one of our CVS stores in Clermont. Special purpose entities are utilized in reverse 1031 transactions. None of our special purpose entities have separate bank accounts. We believe that all responsive documents were produced.
Question # 14
A. We are again providing a copy of our current inventory of land available for sale or lease (Exhibit I). In March 2008, the Company met with Fred Perlstadt of Wintergreen and your independent real estate consultants and provided them with written and oral information.

B. The Companys CEO, Chief Financial Officer, and Manager-Land Holdings work together as a committee to set asking prices for property. The Company strives to keep a diversified inventory of properties based on our master Activity Center plan. Prices are determined based on the location, proposed use and density. The Manager-Land Holdings monitors various real estate information, tracks current real estate closings, and contacts Realtors and appraisers to keep current on land prices and sales. This information is used to periodically modify our current price list as needed.
The Company receives feedback from our potential customers, Realtors, and appraisers that our prices are consistently at the top of the market. As Daytona Beachs largest owner of vacant land, the Companys pricing largely sets the market.
Because the Company prices our land at the top of the local market and generally does not discount to make a sale, the absorption of our land is naturally controlled by market conditions.
The Companys self-development is limited to certain types of uses. For example, the Company would not attempt to self-develop such uses as schools, hospitals, hotels, franchised restaurants, and retail shopping. The self-development of office buildings with some pre-leasing, flex office warehouses, and large warehouse buildings tied to pre-leases are examples of currently approved self-development projects. We have our greatest expertise with these uses, our current staffing levels are sufficient to manage them professionally, and these projects would qualify for future 1031 tax treatment.
Question # 15
A. We believe that all relevant and responsive information has been provided.
B. The Company looks for possible large land acquisitions with potential similar to our existing land holdings, provided the purchase does not create significant new debt. During the recent real estate boom, prices were driven up to the point where it did not make business sense to acquire and hold large tracts of land for future development. With todays real estate devaluation, it is possible that certain potential large land acquisitions will arise and make good business sense.
The 3,400-acre property mentioned was not an appropriate investment because it was overpriced, and consequently it was not presented to the Board.

C. This memo was sent to the Board and the issue had been discussed at Board meetings prior to the date of the memo. This memo related to certain ballot initiatives proposed by Volusia County that our Company, the City of Daytona Beach, and many others opposed. All amendments but one, school concurrency, were defeated. A copy of the memo is attached as Exhibit J. All relevant information requested has been provided to the best of our knowledge.
D. Your question was addressed in our response to questions 11 and 12 above. You also have copies of various Company minutes regarding your inquiry.
E. KPMG reviewed the same documents that were provided to Wintergreen. The Company has no access to any KPMG work papers.
F. KPMG, together with other audit functions, reviews Company sales closings and 1031 purchases. The Company has no access to any internal work papers of KPMG done by their employees during the audit.
G. The Audit Committee and the Board were well aware of Mr. Adams employment with Brown & Brown, Inc. (Brown & Brown), a major national insurance brokerage business headquartered in Daytona Beach. Mr. Adams, prior to his retirement, was principally engaged in Brown & Browns acquisitions of new insurance agencies and was not the agent for our business, nor did he receive any compensation from our account. Mr. Adams is the Boards resident expert on insurance coverage and market rates.
Brown & Browns responsibilities as our independent agent are to advise the Company on suitable coverages and to bring multiple quotes for each line of business. Final selection of vendors is a management decision, not a Board decision. Consequently, Mr. Adams never voted on Company insurance coverage or the retention of Brown & Brown as our agent.
In 2006, the Company employed an out of the area independent insurance professional to review our coverages and check quotes and ratings of companies recommended. Aside from a few minor recommendations that were adopted by the Company, the report indicated that the Company was getting quality coverage from strong companies at very competitive prices.

Question # 16
Sections that are missing were not provided because they were non-responsive to your request.
Question # 17
A. To the best of our knowledge, Wintergreen has been provided with hard copies of all relevant and responsive documentation which Wintergreen scanned.
B. Grant Thornton L.L.P, (Grant Thornton) was engaged by the Audit Committee to document and test the Companys system of internal controls. In that role, Grant Thornton essentially acts as the internal auditor of the Company. Pursuant to the Companys agreement with Grant Thornton, all work product/or reports are prepared solely for the internal use of the Companys management, employees, and Board of Directors.
C. We are providing a copy of our records retention policy (Exhibit K). Our Audit Committee has the primary responsibility for oversight of Sarbanes Oxley compliance for the Company.
It is the Companys view that we have provided more than sufficient information and explanations to fully address all of the concerns raised in the last several Wintergreen letters.
The Company believes that the underlying and unresolved issues that have created the current strained relations involve a philosophical difference, centered around Wintergreens desire that the Company: (1) discontinue the outright sale of our lands in favor of self-development or land leases; (2) discontinue our 1031 tax-fee exchange and diversified reinvestment strategy into triple-net lease properties throughout the southeast; (3) discontinue our current quarterly dividend; and (4) establish an aggressive stock repurchase program.
If we have incorrectly stated any of these core differences that separate the parties, which we base on our interpretation of your prior correspondence and conversations with the Board and management, we would respectfully request that you inform us so we may properly address them.

In todays turbulent economic and real estate markets, the Company, Wintergreen, and all of the other shareholders would best be served if we sit down and attempt to reach a consensus on the major issues of disagreement, rather than continue to exchange letters and fulfill information requests that take up valuable management time and corporate resources or both companies.
We look forward to scheduling a meeting.

Re: Demand for Inspection of Corporate Records by Shareholder
Dear Ms. Crisp:
As we wrote to you on May 30, 2008, Wintergreen Advisers, LLC (the Adviser) may be deemed to beneficially own 1,481,474 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (CTO). The Adviser desires to inspect and copy certain of CTOs books and records. In our May 30th letter, the Adviser made a formal demand to inspect and copy such records pursuant to Section 607.1602, Florida Statutes. The inspection is being conducted pursuant to Florida law for the purposes of (a) enabling the Adviser to determine whether the affairs of CTO are being properly administered by CTOs corporate officers and (b) ascertaining the value of CTOs stock.
In fulfilling these purposes, the Adviser met with CTO representatives at CTOs offices in Daytona Beach on various dates this summer to inspect and copy books and records of CTO. To date, the books and records made available to the Adviser have omitted numerous books and records described and sought in the initial demand. Although CTO is legally obligated under Florida law to be fully responsive to our initial requests, to this point CTO has been anything but fully responsive. We reiterate our initial demand and specifically demand full and complete responses. Set forth below are the items we described in our initial demand followed, on an item-by-item basis, by an explanation as to how the books and records produced to date by CTO do not adequately respond to the initial demand.
1. Documents (for purposes of this letter, the word documents is defined in the broadest possible terms, and includes electronic records and e-mail) related to CTOs day-to-day financial operations over the past three years, including, but not limited to, any and all: (a) financial statements; and (b) documents showing CTOs cash expenses, categorized by type of expense.
A Wintergreen was not provided with any electronic documents relating to CTOs finances (i.e., files from any accounting software). There are many instances where the paper files Wintergreen scanned are truncated (see, for example, cto-

06-12-08-2005-IndigoDevGrp-fi-000037). Please provide all electronic documents which are responsive to our requests, whether such demands are on-site, archived or otherwise organized or maintained.
B Wintergreen was not provided financial records related to CTO subsidiary Indigo Commercial Realty. Wintergreen demands these records, both paper and electronic documents, along with financial records for any other subsidiaries not previously provided.
C Please provide a complete list of all subsidiaries, related parties, affiliated, companies, special purpose entities, etc., whether active or dormant.
D Please provide all management presentations or executive summaries, both paper and electronic format, that are responsive to all of the items in this letter (not specific to Item. 1).
E Please provide documents related to any loans outstanding on seller-financed transactions.

G Please provide copies of all employment contracts for executives of CTO and its subsidiary companies.
H Please provide all responsive documents related to these points or confirm that none exist.
2. Documents related to CTOs real property transactions, including Section 1031 exchanges, over the past five years, including, but not limited to: (i) closing statements; (ii) information regarding the buyers, sellers, lenders, title agents, attorneys, brokers, Section 1031 exchange consultants and any other individuals or institutions involved in such transactions; and (iii) information regarding how funds were transferred pursuant to such transactions and to whom such funds were transferred.
A A May 19, 2008 e-mail from William McMunn mentions a letter regarding the Halifax Hospital deal is in a read around file. Neither this file nor read around files related to any of CTOs other real property transaction was produced. Please produce all these files, whether in paper or electronic format, or confirm that none exist.
B Please provide all documents relating to transactions with Cornerstone Office Park Owners Association or confirm that none exist.
C Please provide any documents describing CTOs relationship with the Charles Wayne Group. Apparently, the Charles Wayne group was at one time affiliated
Page 3

with CTO and now acts as a broker on many of CTOs land sales and income property transactions. Please provide all documents that relate to fees, commissions or other consideration paid to the Charles Wayne Group, as well as all documents detailing any existing business relationships between CTO and the Charles Wayne Group, or confirm that none exist.
D CTO did not provide any information regarding why CTO routinely chooses to utilize Volusia Title Services or Equity Title and Closing Corp. as the title and/or closing agent for its land sales. Please provide any documents that explain CTOs policy/procedure/practice in selecting such agents.
E Please provide all documents showing that third-party transaction services are put out to competitive bidding or confirm that none exist.
F Volusia Title Services also appears affiliated with First American Exchange Company, which acts as CTOs intermediary on most of its 1031 transactions. Please provide all documents detailing any existing business relationships between CTO, Volusia Title Services and/or First American Exchange Company and any of their subsidiary and/or parent companies or confirm that none exist
G Please provide any Excel spreadsheets or other similar charts or summary documents of corporate record-keeping to organize these transactions, such as the Garter report mentioned several times in board minutes (e.g. cto-071408-MgmtMinutes2005-2008-000079), or confirm that none exist.
H In addition, scanned document cto-062008-2004-SilverHolly-ContNotes-000056 refers to CTOs sale of approximately 4.5 acres of land to Silver Holly Development, LLC in December 2004 for $1.074 million. As apart of this transaction, Tri-Square Realty, Inc. received a $42,215.75 commission. CTO board member William Voges is vice president, director and registered agent of Tri-Square Realty. Please provide any documents given to the board or its audit committee that show that this transaction was reviewed and approved by independent directors, outside counsel and auditors, that the directors who approved this transaction were made aware of the commission being paid to Mr. Voges firm, and that Mr. Voges recused himself from the discussion or confirm that none exist.
I Was CTOs conflict of interest policy complied with in connection with this transaction with Silver Holly? Please produce all documents concerning such compliance for this and all other transactions during the timeframe of our demand, or confirm that none exist.
J The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics adopted April 28, 2004 and Code of Ethical Conduct for Senior Financial Officers adopted February 5, 2004 state that employees and directors should avoid all actual or apparent conflicts of interest, but do not provide any policy, practice or procedure for evaluating any
Page 4

August 29, 2008
actual, apparent or potential conflict of interest. Please provide copies of any such policy and procedures that existed before the January 23, 2007 adoption of CTOs Related Party Transaction Policy and Procedures or confirm that no such documents exist.
3. Documents related to the development of CTOs real estate properties over the past five years, including, but not limited to, any and all: (a) information regarding the developers, managers and other individuals or institutions involved in the ongoing development of such properties; and (b) advice or recommendations made in furtherance of the development of such properties, including, but not limited to, any and all documents, CTO board minutes and presentations reflecting how and why the development of the two 15,000 square foot office buildings currently under construction was accomplished.
Very few documents were produced with respect to this item. CTO spent a great deal of time and money on the development of the two 15,000 square foot office buildings, but CTO provided almost no documents, presentations, e-mails, etc. relating to these buildings (such as bids, contractor selection process, budgets, budget variances, tenant projections, commitments, updates to the board, ongoing income projections, etc. regarding the Gateway Commerce Center and any other developments for which CTO has coordinated development), and all related improvements, including clearing, drainage, zoning changes, variances and road and infrastructure development. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
4. Documents reflecting any and all fees paid in relation to CTOs real property transactions and the development of CTOs properties referenced in items 2 and 3 above, including, but not limited to: (a) to whom these fees were paid; and (b) how such fees were paid.
CTO has not produced any documents regarding any commissions paid to Indigo Commercial Realty, commissions paid by CTO to CTO employees, or information regarding commissions paid outside closing (see, for example, cto-06-18-08-2003-DaytonaBeachAuto-FinalDocs-000058ICR Paid Outside Closing). There are multiple references to commissions paid outside closing. Please provide all documents containing this information and any policy/practice/procedure related to the payment of commissions, fees and/or any other consideration or confirm that none exist.
5. Documents reflecting CTOs evaluation of the strategies of purchase of income properties versus the self-development of properties and other alternatives for the development of properties, including, but not limited to, any and all: (a) presentations made to the CTO board; (b) financial projections relating to such evaluation; (c) CTO board minutes from meetings regarding such evaluation; and (d) reports of consultants.

CTO has produced some parts of presentations on this matter, but they are not complete (see item 16 below). The required documents include presentations and summaries that were prepared for or delivered to committees or subcommittees as well as for the full board. Please provide full copies of all responsive presentations and other documents.
6. Documents reflecting the day-to-day operations of CTOs income properties, including, but not limited to, documents reflecting: (a) the costs associated with, and the depreciation of, such properties; and (b) information relating to buyers, sellers, title agents, attorneys, brokers, managers and any other individuals or institutions involved with the purchase and ongoing business of these properties, including, but not limited to: (i) how such individuals or institutions are hired by CTO; (ii) why such individuals or institutions are hired more often than others; and (iii) how such individuals or institutions are being compensated by CTO, if at all.
A No presentations to the board or any committees or subcommittees regarding performance of income properties or managements plans for implementing the income property strategy were produced, nor were management reports on the status of these properties or reports by entity. Please provide these documents or confirm that none exist.
B Please provide all documents showing CTOs efforts to re-lease or otherwise realize value from all income properties which are currently unoccupied by their contracted tenants, which apparently include CVS stores in Sanford, Melbourne, Sebring and Roseland, Florida, or confirm that none exist.
C Who monitors the performance of income properties and the management companies that are responsible for the day-to-day operations of several of these properties (i.e., the Sembler Company) and how is this monitoring accomplished? Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
7. Documents evidencing any and all plans for the numerous and geographically diverse parcels of land CTO will own once the leases on CTOs properties described in item 6 above expire.
No documents were produced for this item. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
Has management or the board discussed what will be done with the various properties when the leases expire? Please provide all documents related to future plans or confirm that none exist.
8. Copies of CTOs lease agreements for income-producing properties, including all exhibits.

Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that all responsive documents were produced.
9. Documents related to the day-to-day operations of the LPGA golf course since the commencement of its operations, including, but not limited to, any and all: (a) financial statements; (b) documents showing the golf courses gross and net income and losses; and (c) CTO board minutes and presentations from meetings regarding the operation of the golf course.
A No e-mails were produced from the lpgaintenational.com e-mail domain, other than from e-mails incoming to CTO personnel from Ipgainternational.com accounts. Please provide all responsive emails from the lpgamternational.com domain as well as any other internet domains or e-mail accounts owned or controlled by CTO.
B Please provide all correspondence and e-mails between CTO and/or LPGAInternational.com, the Ladies Professional Golf Association or the management company, Buena Vista Hospitality Group (BVHG).
C As in item 1 above, no electronic documents or files related to the LPGA golf courses finances were produced. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
D With respect to BVHG, only the contract was produced. Please provide all documents relating to the day-to-day operations of the golf course including, but not limited to, the following reports provided by BVHG (yearly, going back to inception): Annual Operating and Maintenance Plan and five-year Capital Program.
E Please provide all documents detailing staffing levels and the BVHG charge account, as well as any business-related golf privileges and complimentary memberships, or confirm that none exist. Given that CTOs golf course operations have consistently lost money for approximately the past decade, these documents should be critical to understanding the valuation of the operation and whether or not the golf course affairs are being properly administered.
F The January 23, 2008 presentation to the board states on page cto-071408-No9-BoardPresent-Golf-l0310000306 LPGA International operations as well as the LPGA International Financial Statements will be discussed at the Directors meeting, while previous presentations provided an overview and commentary of LPGA International operations; the same is true of the April 23, 2008 presentation to the board (cto-071408-No9-BoardPresent-Golf~1031-000312). Please explain why this policy was changed and provide any documents that were provided and minutes of discussions that took-place at these board meetings or confirm that none exist.

G Please provide all management presentations and executive summaries that have not been produced to date regarding rounds played (both paid and complementary), and membership (both paid and complementary, including a list of all persons who hold complementary membership). What services, amenities or privileges are included in the free passes? Who has control of the passes for the free rounds of golf, greens fees, lunches, etc.? Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
10. Documents reflecting CTOs notification and level of awareness of Mr. Olivaris involvement with Halifax Hospital and its supporting foundation, including, but not limited to, CTO board and committee minutes from meetings regarding Mr. Olivaris nomination and election to the CTO board.
CTO only produced Mr. Olivaris background file. Are there any other documents responsive to this item or more detailed documentation of discussions that were held by the board regarding Mr. Olivaris nomination and fitness to serve as an independent director? Please provide all documents or confirm that none exist.
Please provide any documents that explain the boards or CTOs reasoning behind nominating Mr. Olivari to the board of directors after the entity he is associated with (Halifax Hospital) refused to build the hospital it was contractually obligated to build on land bought from CTO. This broken deal would seem to have caused great financial harm to CTO and its shareholders by depressing the value of CTO-owned land surrounding the hospital site and would therefore raise the question of why CTO would then reward Halifax Hospital by placing Mr. Olivari on the board of directors. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
11. Documents reflecting CTOs notification and level of awareness that (a) William McMunn and members of his immediate family were the recipients of loans from SunTrust Bank granted during the interval between (i) the December 2004 sale by CTO subsidiary Indigo Group to SunTrust Bank of the property located at 2030 LPGA Boulevard in Daytona Beach and (ii) the June 2007 return sale of the same property by SunTrust Bank to Indigo Group and (b) Mr. McMunn sought election to and thereafter was elected in September 2005 to the board of directors of SunTrust Bank of East Central Florida.
No documents were produced that are responsive to this item. Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
Was CTOs board made aware of this potential conflict of interest? Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
12. Documents related to the decision to recommend the election of William Davison, outgoing president of a SunTrust regional subsidiary, to CTOs board of
Page 8
Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co.
August 29, 2008
directors effective April 2007, including, but not limited, to any documents that relate to the consideration, if any, given by CTO to whether (a) outstanding loans from SunTrust to CTO, (b) outstanding loans from SunTrust to Mr. McMunn and members of his immediate family, or (c) SunTrusts failure to build its regional headquarters on the property located at 2030 LPGA Boulevard in Daytona Beach, were relevant to the recommendation of Mr. Davisons election to CTOs board.
A CTO only produced Mr. Davisons background file. No documents were produced that are responsive to clauses (b) or (c) of this item. Are there any other documents responsive to this item? Please provide any documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
B In his background file, on page cto-071408-Davison-000032, Mr. Davison states that the responsibility for the CTO banking relationship is with the bank officers who are part of the commercial banking unit located in Orlando, FL. Decisions and accountability for the CTO banking relationship are governed by these officers. This would seem to contradict documents cto-062508-2004-SunTrustBank-000205, cto-06-16-08-2003 Bayberry_ColonyLLC-FinalDocs-000080, cto-06-16-08-2003-Bayberry_ColonyLLC-GenCorr-000218 and cto-06-16-08-2003-Bayberry_ColonyLLC-GenCorr-000219, which show that Mr. Davison clearly had a banking relationship with CTO. Please provide any documents showing that the board was made aware of this relationship, and that it was discussed and approved at the board level, or confirm that none exist.
C Please provide any documents that explain the boards or CTOs reasoning behind nominating Mr. Davison to the board of directors after the entity both he and CTO Chief Executive Officer William McMunn are associated with (SunTrust Bank, East Central Florida) refused to build the bank it was contractually obligated to build on land bought from CTO. The pattern established with Mr. Olivari and Mr. Davison of CTOs board rewarding people whose affiliates refuse to honor contracts with CTO by nominating them to CTOs board of directors raises serious doubts that the affairs of CTO are being properly administered. Within the scope and timeframe of this demand, what documents exist to provide an explanation for this phenomenon? Please provide all documents related to this or confirm that none exist.
13. Documents related to CTOs ownership interest in, business dealings of, staffing of or acquisitions of real property in cooperation with, Indigo Clermont LLC since its formation in 2005.

WILLIAM H. MCMUNN
3 S. RAVENSFIELD LANE
ORMOND BEACH FL 32174
October 15, 2008
TO MEMBERS OF THE CONSOLIDATED-TOMOKA BOARD OF DIRECTORS:
JOHN C. ADAMS, JR.
WILLIAM H. DAVISON
GERALD L. DEGOOD
JAMES E. GARDNER
JOHN C. MYERS, III
WILLIAM L. OLIVARI
WILLIAM J. VOGES
Gentlemen:
This letter is in response to Mr. Winters August 29, 2008 letter (Question #11), which questions my notification to the Board of loans received by me and members of my family from SunTrust Bank (SunTrust). The Board was not notified of any loans that I or any of my family members received from SunTrust. The Company has no policy prohibiting directors and employees from doing business with companies that purchase Company land or have an ongoing relationship with the Company. A conflict of interest occurs when an individuals private interest interferes in any material way with the interests of the Company as a whole; such a conflict would arise if the loans were not an arms length transaction at market terms and conditions, or if special consideration was given that is not available to others that resulted in personal gain to me or my immediate family members.
All of the personal loans referred to in Mr. Winters letter are recorded in the Public Records of Volusia County. All loans were all made at then market rates and terms, and therefore did not require disclosure to the Board. My personal loan is a variable rate revolving line of credit secured by my personal residence. I have several adult children, some of whom purchased homes for their personal residences. Each individually applied and qualified for their respective loans based on their individual work and credit history. Their loans were also made at the market rates and terms existing at the time of their closing.
I am a member of the local SunTrust Advisory Board, which is made up exclusively of local clients of the Bank. Senior executives of two other public companies headquartered in Daytona BeachInternational Speedway Corp. and Brown & Brown Insuranceare also members. The Advisory Board has no official duties other than to provide the bank with their best business input. Board members in return receive valuable demographic and financial information on the condition of the local economy compared to the Florida
Letter to Board of Directors

and Southeastern US markets. Members share their opinions on various local and national business issues. Members of the Advisory Board receive a meeting fee.
I did not seek this Advisory Board position, but was invited to fill a vacancy on the Banks Advisory Board by its members. The invitation to join the Board was discussed with then Chairman of the Board, Bob D. Allen, to determine if this would cause a conflict of interest. It was agreed that Mr. Allen would disclose this to the Board. To avoid any conflict of interest, it was also agreed that I would resign from the Advisory Board if the Company decided to change banking relationships. The facts support that service on the Advisory Board did not deter the Company from enforcing its contractual buy-back rights when SunTrust failed to commence construction as required by the contract.
I will be glad to answer any questions you may have concerning the loans or the Advisory Board position.
Sincerely,
William H. McMunn

Subject: Volusia County Charter Amendments
The voters in Volusia County resoundingly defeated six of the seven proposed County Charter Amendments. The only amendment to pass was the school planning amendment, which requires that adequate public schools be planned and constructed prior to any impact of increased density caused by any future rezoning or comprehensive plan changes.
At the current time, there is a surplus of classroom space in several elementary, middle, and high schools serving our lands. Our recent donation of a site for a new elementary school west of I-95 will create additional capacity, and for the foreseeable future our lands should not be negatively impacted by this charter amendment.
The two amendments (# 3 and #7), which were supported by the slow growth/ no growth advocates and which could have negatively affected our 3,000 acres adjacent to SR 40 by giving the County planning superiority over the desires of the City of Daytona Beach, were both soundly defeated.
The Company contributed a total of $25,000 to a vote no PAC to help defeat all of the amendments. The cities and other business interests contributed over $250,000 to the overall campaign. Had these amendments passed, CTLC would have faced additional delays and significant legal expense in challenging their legality.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me.

Dear Mr. Winters:
As you are aware, we currently have a vacancy on our Board of Directors. Because you are one of the Companys major shareholders and you have previously recommended prospective candidates to the Board, we wanted to request your input regarding the candidates for filling this vacancy.
The Governance Committee has interviewed and vetted two very qualified candidates, one of whom you know and have recommended to us and another with a background in real estate land use law and public policy, and who has served in several high level positions under two Governors of Florida.
During the Boards discussion of these two candidates at our October Board meeting, the Board decided that the Governance Committee should solicit your input on the qualifications and suitability of these two candidates. The members of the Governance Committee would welcome the opportunity to discuss the two candidates with you.
At your earliest convenience, please let me know if you would be interested in participating in such a discussion with our Committee and when would be a convenient time to meet. I can be reached at (386) 451-6099 and welcome your call.
Sincerely,
/s/ William H. Davison

Chairman, Governance Committee Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. 1530 Cornerstone Boulevard, Suite 100 Daytona Beach, FL 32117
Dear Messrs. McMunn and Davison;
We are in receipt of Mr. McMunns letter dated October 17, 2008 and Mr. Davisons dated October 24, 2008, each addressed to me.
Mr. Davisons letter refers to the vacancy on CTOs board of directors. As you are aware, this vacancy was created by the retirement of Bob Allen effective April 23, 2008. Although Wintergreen Advisers, LLC proposed three candidates for directors in February, 2008, and formally nominated one candidate and two substitutes for this vacancy in May, 2008, CTO has not filled this board seat in the six months since it became vacant. While we appreciate CTO soliciting our opinion regarding this board vacancy, we believe that all shareholders would have benefited had the vacancy been filled in a more timely manner.
As requested by both of you in your letters, representatives of Wintergreen are prepared to meet with CTO management to discuss the board vacancy and other issues affecting CTO. In order to prepare for the discussion regarding the board vacancy, we request that you send us information regarding the two candidates for the board vacancy. The information should consist of all information the Governance Committee has considered, including, but not limited to, any questionnaires completed by the candidates, the candidates CVs, and descriptions of any business or other relationships between the candidates and the directors or officers of CTO, Wintergreen agrees to hold this information in confidence.

Re: Information Requested on Consolidated Tomoka Board Candidates Dear Mr. Winters,
Enclosed please find information on the two board candidates, Dianne Neal, and Linda Loomis Shelley.
You have also inquired about relationships between the candidates and directors or officers of Consolidated. Prior to the vetting process, no board member or officer of Consolidated had any business, or other relationships with Ms. Neal. Prior to the vetting process, no board member other
than Mr. Myers and Mr.McMunn had any business or other relationship with Ms. Shelley.
Mr. Myers family trust owns a tract of land near Jacksonville, FL and Mr. Myers used the services of Ms. Shelley on several occasions on land use issues. Mr. Myers was very impressed with Ms. Shelley over the course of her representation of the trust. Based on that experience and her background, Mr. Myers decided to nominate her as a board candidate. Mr. McMunn met once with Ms. Shelley on Company business many years ago during her tenure as the Secretary of the Department of Community Affairs.
After receipt of your letter, management polled the officers to determine if there were other relationships with Ms. Neal or Ms. Shelley or Fowler, White. As a result of that inquiry, I have been advised that several years ago, a purchaser of Company property requested the Company use the services of Jake Varn, a partner in Fowler, White, to assist in obtaining a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers because he had a good relationship with the head of the office handling that permit. As part of that joint effort, the Company paid a fee to Fowler, White. To the best of our knowledge, Ms. Shelley was not involved in that matter. Also, about five years our General Counsel, Mr. Apgar, served on a countywide water committee (not directly related to the Companys business) that used the services of Jake Varn, of Fowler White and Ms. Shelley participated in a few of the meetings.
Both candidates are aware that we will be discussing their candidacy with you. We look forward to a productive teleconference on November 5, 2008 at 1:00 p.m.
Sincerely,

DRAFT
SETTLEMENT AND STANDSTILL AGREEMENT
This Settlement and Standstill Agreement (as hereinafter defined, this Agreement), is made and entered into as of November , 2008, by and among Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co., a Florida corporation (the Company), and the following parties (each individually a Wintergreen Investor and collectively the Wintergreen Investors): Wintergreen Advisers, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; Wintergreen Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation; and Wintergreen Partners Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership.
Preambles
A. The Wintergreen Investors have filed a Form 13D with the SEC, as amended from time to time, that reflects that the Wintergreen Investors beneficially own, in the aggregate, 1,481,474 shares of the Companys outstanding common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the Company Common Stock), representing approximately 25.9% of the outstanding Company Common Stock.
B. The Wintergreen Investors have previously nominated Dianne Neal as a candidate for membership on the Companys Board of Directors (the Board) to fill the vacancy created by the retirement of Bob D. Allen from the Board.
C. The Company is willing to undertake changes to the composition of the Board as set forth herein.
D. The Wintergreen Investors have previously made demands to inspect and copy certain of the Companys books and records pursuant to the Florida Business Corporation Act (the Inspection Request).
E. The Wintergreen Investors and the Company have agreed that it is in their mutual interests to enter into this Agreement.
In consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
Terms
1. Definitions. For the proposes of this Agreement:
(a) Affiliate has the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act).
(b) Associate has the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act.
(c) SEC means the Securities and Exchange Commission or any successor agency.
2. Board Composition and Related Matters.
(a) Promptly after execution of this Agreement, the Company agrees that the Board will appoint Dianne Neal (Neal) to the Board to fill the current vacancy on the Board and include Neal in the Boards slate of nominees for election as a member of the Board at the Companys 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the 2009 Annual Meeting) to serve in the class of directors with terms ending in 2012.
(b) The Company will include an additional nominee proposed in writing by the Wintergreen Investors (the Additional Nominee and, together with Neal, the Wintergreen Nominees) in the Boards slate of nominees for election as a member of the Board at the 2009 Annual Meeting to serve in the class of directors with terms ending in 2012. The Company expects that one of the current directors in such class will retire effective as of the 2009 Annual Meeting, but in any event will include the Additional Nominee in such slate; provided, however, that the Additional Nominee will (i) be independent under the rules of the NYSE Alternext/American Stock Exchange, (ii) provide all information required of shareholder nominees as set forth in the Companys proxy statement filed with the SEC and (iii) provide such further information as reasonably requested by the Boards Corporate Governance Committee (the Governance Committee) to determine the qualifications and independence of such Additional Nominee. In the event that Governance Committee determines that the Additional Nominee has not complied with the foregoing, the Wintergreen Investors shall be entitled to propose a substitute Additional Nominee pursuant to this Section 2(b).
(c) The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the election of the Wintergreen Nominees at the 2009 Annual Meeting, including, without limitation, recommending that the Companys shareholders vote in favor of the election of the Wintergreen Nominees at the 2009 Annual Meeting and voting the shares of Company Common Stock represented by all proxies granted by shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board in connection with the 2009 Annual Meeting in favor of the Wintergreen Nominees, except for such proxies that specifically indicate a vote to withhold authority with respect to either such nominee. Neither the Board nor the Company shall take any position, make any statements or take any action inconsistent with such recommendation.
(d) Subject to the inclusion of the Wintergreen Nominees in the Boards slate of nominees for election as directors of the Company at the 2009 Annual Meeting, the Wintergreen Investors agree to vote in favor of the Boards slate of nominees for election as directors of the Company at the 2009 Annual Meeting.
(e) In the event that either Wintergreen Nominee shall resign prior to the expiration of the term for which he or she is elected to serve on the Board, then subject to Section 2(g) below, the Wintergreen Investors shall have the right to nominate for appointment by the Board a replacement solely to serve the remainder of such Wintergreen Nominees term on the Board (subject to applicable law). Such nominee will (i) be independent under the rules of the NYSE Alternext/American Stock Exchange, (ii) provide all information required of shareholder nominees as set forth in the Companys proxy statement filed with the SEC and (iii) provide such further information as reasonably requested by the Boards Corporate Governance Committee to determine the qualifications and independence of such nominee. The appointment of such nominee shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Board. All references in this 2
Agreement to the Wintergreen Nominees shall also be deemed to mean such persons as may be appointed a member of the Board pursuant to this Section 2(e).
(f) During the Standstill Period, the Company will not increase the size of the Board without the prior written consent of the Wintergreen Investors.
(g) If at any time during the Standstill Period the Wintergreen Investors fail to beneficially own at least 20% of the outstanding Company Common Stock (as adjusted for reverse stock splits, stock splits and stock dividends), one of the Wintergreen Nominees (who shall be identified in writing by the Wintergreen Investors within five days of written notice by the Company or, if not identified within such five-day period, by the Board) will promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board, and Wintergreen Investors shall no longer be entitled nominate a replacement as set forth in Section 2(e) above. If at any time during the Standstill Period the Wintergreen Investors fail to beneficially own at least 10.5% of the outstanding Company Common Stock (as adjusted for reverse stock splits, stock splits and stock dividends), the remaining Wintergreen Nominee will promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board, and Wintergreen Investors shall no longer be entitled nominate a replacement as set forth in Section 2(e) above. In furtherance of this Section 2(g), the Wintergreen Investors will promptly provide written notification to the Company at such time that they fail to beneficially own either of the threshold percentages of outstanding Company Common Stock set forth herein, and each Wintergreen Nominee will deliver an irrevocable conditional resignation as a director to the Board pursuant to this Section 2(g) at the time of his or her election to the Board.
(h) During the Standstill Period, the Company will not make, or cause to be made, any statement or announcement that relates to and constitutes an ad hominem attack on, or relates to and otherwise disparages, any of the Wintergreen Investors, any of their officers, directors, partners or members or any person who has served as an officer, director, partner or member of any of the Wintergreen Investors: (i) in any document or report filed with or furnished to the SEC or any other governmental agency, (ii) in any press release or other publicly available format (including on the Internet), (iii) to any journalist or member of the media (including without limitation, in a television, radio, newspaper or magazine interview) or (iv) in any letter or other communication to or with any shareholder of the Company.

Re: Settlement and Standstill Agreement
Dear Ms. Crisp:
We would be remiss if we were to fail to express our displeasure concerning the contents of the draft Settlement and Standstill Agreement (the Agreement) sent to us by Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (CTO). The proposal by CTO included a number of matters that had not been discussed by the parties, and many of those provisions would require us to violate our fiduciary duties if we agreed to them.
We have revised the draft Agreement to reflect the terms under which the Wintergreen Investors (as defined in the Agreement) are willing to execute the Agreement. The revised draft is enclosed. For your reference, a copy of this draft marked to show changes from the draft CTO sent to us is also enclosed.
The Wintergreen Investors will execute the Agreement only if CTO executes the Agreement in the form enclosed with this letter, with no changes or modifications whatsoever, and returns the executed Agreement to us by 5:00 p.m. Wednesday, November 19, 2008.
Please direct any questions regarding this correspondence or the Agreement to our legal counsel, Patricia Poglinco (212.574.1247) or Fola Adamolekun (212.574.1320), of Seward & Kissel LLP, One Battery Park Plaza, New York, NY 10004, or to our special Florida counsel, Mark F. Raymond (305.373.9425) or Ronald Albert, Jr. (305.373.9474), of Broad and Cassel, One Biscayne Tower, Suite 2100, 2 S. Biscayne Boulevard, Miami, FL 33131.

SETTLEMENT AND STANDSTILL AGREEMENT
This Settlement and Standstill Agreement (as hereinafter defined, this Agreement), is made and entered into as of November , 2008, by and among Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co., a Florida corporation (the Company), and the following parties (each individually a Wintergreen Investor and collectively the Wintergreen Investors): Wintergreen Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation; Wintergreen Partners Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership; and Wintergreen Advisers, LLC, a Delaware limited company, on behalf of itself and the other pooled investment vehicles it manages, which also own additional shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Preambles
A. The Wintergreen Investors have filed a Form 13D with the SEC, as amended from time to time, that reflects that the Wintergreen Investors beneficially own, in the aggregate, 1,481,474 shares of the Companys outstanding common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the Company Common Stock), representing approximately 25.9% of the outstanding Company Common Stock.
B. The Wintergreen Investors have previously nominated Dianne Neal as a candidate for membership on the Companys Board of Directors (the Board) to fill the vacancy created by the retirement of Bob D. Allen from the Board.
C. The Company is willing to undertake changes to the composition of the Board as set forth herein.
D. The Wintergreen Investors have previously made demands to inspect and copy certain of the Companys books and records pursuant to the Florida Business Corporation Act (the Inspection Demand).
E. The Wintergreen Investors and the Company have agreed that it is in their mutual interests to enter into this Agreement.
In consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
Terms
1. Definitions. For the proposes of this Agreement:
(a) Affiliate has the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act).
(b) Associate has the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act.
(c) SEC means the Securities and Exchange Commission or any successor agency.
2. Board Composition and Related Matters.
(a) Within ten days after execution of this Agreement, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to have the Board appoint Dianne Neal (Neal) to the Board to fill the current vacancy on the Board and include Neal in the Boards slate of nominees for election as a member of the Board at the Companys 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the 2009 Annual Meeting) to serve in the class of directors with terms ending in 2012.
(b) The Company will include two additional nominees proposed in writing by the Wintergreen Investors (the Additional Nominees and, together with Neal, the Wintergreen Nominees) in the Boards slate of nominees for election as a member of the Board at the 2009 Annual Meeting to serve in the class of directors with terms ending in 2012. The Company expects that at least one of the current directors in such class will retire effective as of the 2009 Annual Meeting, but in any event will include the Additional Nominees in such slate; provided, however, that the Additional Nominees will (i) be independent under the rules of the NYSE Alternext/American Stock Exchange, (ii) provide all information required of shareholder nominees as set forth in the Companys proxy statement filed with the SEC and (iii) provide such further information as reasonably requested by the Boards Corporate Governance Committee (the Governance Committee) to determine the qualifications and independence of such Additional Nominee. In the event that Governance Committee determines that any of the Additional Nominees have not complied with the foregoing, the Wintergreen Investors shall be entitled to propose a substitute Additional Nominee(s) pursuant to this Section 2(b),
(c) The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the election of the Wintergreen Nominees at the 2009 Annual Meeting, including, without limitation, recommending that the Companys shareholders vote in favor of the election of the Wintergreen Nominees at the 2009 Annual Meeting and voting the shares of Company Common Stock represented by all proxies granted by shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board in connection with the 2009 Annual Meeting in favor of the Wintergreen Nominees, except for such proxies that specifically indicate a vote to withhold authority with respect to any such nominee. Neither the Board nor the Company shall take any position, make any statements or take any action inconsistent with such recommendation.
(d) Subject to the inclusion of the Wintergreen Nominees in the Boards slate of nominees for election as directors of the Company at the 2009 Annual Meeting, the Wintergreen Investors agree to vote in favor of the Boards slate of nominees for election as directors of the Company at the 2009 Annual Meeting, provided such nominees are independent as described in subsection (m) below.
(e) In the event that any Wintergreen Nominee shall resign or otherwise cease to serve as a director of the Company prior to the expiration of the term for which he or she is elected to serve on the Board, then the Wintergreen Investors shall have the right to nominate for appointment by the Board a replacement solely to serve the remainder of such Wintergreen Nominees term on the Board (subject to applicable law). Such nominee will (i) be independent under the rules of the NYSE Alternext/American Stock Exchange, (ii) provide all
2
information required of shareholder nominees as set forth in the Companys proxy statement filed with the SEC and (iii) provide such further information as reasonably requested by the Boards Corporate Governance Committee to determine the qualifications and independence of such nominee. The appointment of such nominee shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Board. In the event the Board does not approve such nominee, the Wintergreen Investors shall be entitled to propose a substitute nominee pursuant to this Section 2(e). All references in this Agreement to the Wintergreen Nominees shall also be deemed to mean such persons as may be appointed a member of the Board pursuant to this Section 2(e).
(f) During the Standstill Period (as defined below), the Company will not increase the size of the Board without the prior written consent of the Wintergreen Investors.
(g) During the Standstill Period, the Company will not make, or cause to be made, any statement or announcement that relates to and constitutes an ad hominem attack on, or relates to or otherwise disparages, any of the Wintergreen Nominees, any of the Wintergreen Investors, any of their officers, directors, partners or members or any person who has served as an officer, director, partner or member of any of the Wintergreen Investors: (i) in any document or report filed with or furnished to the SEC or any other governmental agency, (ii) in any press release or other publicly available format (including on the Internet), (iii) to any journalist or member of the media (including without limitation, in a television, radio, newspaper or magazine interview) or (iv) in any letter or other communication to or with any shareholder of the Company.
(h) Not later than the 2009 Annual Meeting, the office of Chairman of the Board will be made separate from the office of Chief Executive Officer, and such offices will not be occupied by the same person. Not later than 2009 Annual Meeting, the Board shall appoint Dianne Neal to serve Chairperson of the Board.
(i) The Company will use its best efforts to make Linda L. Shelley available for the Wintergreen Investors to meet and interview for consideration as a nominee for the Board for the remaining member of the class of directors with terms ending in 2012 (other than the Wintergreen Nominees).
(j) The Company will, as promptly as possible following the execution of this Agreement, produce the results of the items that remain outstanding from the Inspection Demand dated May 30, 2008, including, but not limited to: archival searches of the Companys records and e-mails, and all electronic documents that are responsive to the Information Demand.
(k) During the Standstill Period, the Company will not adopt any shareholder rights plan, poison pill or other anti-takeover mechanism without the prior written consent of the Wintergreen Investors.
(1) The Board or its compensation committee will immediately undertake a review of the compensation of all officers and management level employees of the Company to ensure that compensation levels, including perquisites, bonus plans, stock grants, stock options and similar plans, appropriately reflect the impaired earnings of the Company and the current condition of the real estate market.
3
(m) All future nominees to the Board must be completely independent of all then-current members of the Board. For purposes of this Agreement, independent means that nominees may not have any current or former relationship, whether business, personal or otherwise, with any then-current member of the Board. For example, if a nominee previously worked at a business that had also employed a Board member, then that nominee would not be independent. Similarly, if a nominee serves or served on the board of directors of any organization, whether for profit or not for profit, with any Board member, then such nominee would not be independent.
(n) Not later than the 2009 Annual Meeting, or as soon thereafter as legally possible, the Company shall eliminate the staggered terms of the Board, so that each Member of the Board is elected for a one year term.
3. Standstill Period. Each Wintergreen Investor agrees that, beginning as of the date hereof and continuing until the date that is 30 days before the last date on which a shareholder of the Company may submit nominations for the Board in connection with the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the Standstill Period), neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Associates will, directly or indirectly, in any manner, engage in any of the following actions without the prior written consent of the Board or a Committee thereof specifically expressed in a written resolution adopted by a majority vote of the Board or a Committee thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any period in which the Board does not include a director nominated by the Wintergreen Investors, this Section 3 shall cease to apply.
(a) engage in any solicitation of proxies or consents to vote any voting securities of the Company in opposition to the recommendation of the Board with respect to the election of directors;
(b) knowingly seek to influence any person with respect to the voting of any securities of the Company in opposition to the recommendation of the Board with respect to the election of members of the Board, unless requested to do so by the Company;
(c) otherwise act, alone or in concert with others, to seek to initiate or take any action to obtain representation on the Board, or seek the removal of any director from the Board;
(d) take any action to seek to amend any provision of the Companys Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, as amended and restated, except as may be approved by the Board;
(e) grant any proxy rights with respect to the Common Stock to any person, other than officers, managers, employees, agents or attorneys of the Wintergreen Investors, not designated by the Company;

(g) propose any matter for submission to a vote of the shareholders of the Company.
4

Any press release to be issued by either party relating to the matter covered by this Agreement shall be provided prior to issuance to the other party for the other partys review and approval.
8. Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement, and that in addition to all other remedies which the Wintergreen Investors or the Company may have, each of the parties hereto will be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach, without the necessity of posting any bond.
